Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for labeling flat objects, such as compact cassettes, video cassettes or the like, with labels arranged in a storage stack for transfer to label holders, the label holders having suction bores which can be acted upon by vacuum to take over the labels and having recesses in the objects and openings and edges of the labels corresponding to bevelled projections are provided, and with a device for making the labels adhesive.
  • Devices of this type are used for labeling flat objects, such as compact cassettes, video cassettes, tape reels or also vinyl records and similar objects, to which labels stacked in a stack of supplies, after they have been made liable, are to be applied in a well-defined arrangement and orientation.
  • US Pat. No. 2,764,408 describes a method and a device for removing labels from a stack of labels, in which the labels are removed from the stack of labels by compressed air flowing out of a nozzle and placed on label holders on a rotary head, the label holders only being removed non-positioning adhesive surfaces holding the labels.
  • a particular disadvantage here is that the labels cannot be applied precisely positioned on the object to be labeled below, to which they are brought by means of the rotary head.
  • DE-GM 18 84 257 describes a device of the generic type for applying labels on a carrier tape to an object by means of a device Rotary head, which is provided with suction and pressure devices.
  • the labels are detached from the label tape in that the suction and pressing device moves radially from the rotary head to the labels and exerts a suction effect when they are touched, whereupon it is withdrawn while taking the label with it.
  • the rotary head continues to rotate until the suction and pressing device provided with a label has reached the transport path of the objects to be labeled, where the suction and pressing device moves again radially outward onto the object to be labeled, pressing the corresponding label there, whereby the suction vacuum is switched off and then withdrawn.
  • a disadvantage of this device is that adhesive labels are used which must be applied to a tape beforehand.
  • an exact positioning of the labels on the objects to be labeled is not possible with the device according to DE-GM 18 84 257.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a device of the generic type that allows accurate and clean labeling by means of inexpensive labels to be removed from a stack at high speed.
  • the label holder is arranged to be radially movable on at least one step-wise rotating rotary head and from it to stationary function stations, namely a transfer station in which a label is taken over by one of the label holders, an application station in which the label is adhesive is made, and an application station for applying the labels on the Objects that are movable; that a conveyor chain running past the rotary head is provided with cams pushing the objects; and that the application station is provided with a lifting platform lifting the objects from the continuous transport chain above the height of the cams.
  • the labels are thus transported step by step from the transfer station or the storage stack provided therein to the application station by at least one rotary head provided with radially movable label holders and are subjected to at least the following functions when the rotary head is at a standstill: transfer of the labels by the label holder in the transfer station , Adhesion of the labels in the application station, lifting of the objects, in particular cassettes, from the continuously moving transport chain for applying the labels by radially approaching the respective label holder to the object and by breaking off the suction vacuum.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the same, mirror-image, synchronously operating rotary heads with corresponding peripheral stations are arranged on the application station on both sides of the transport chain.
  • the overall labeling speed is practically doubled.
  • the application station has a horizontally lying application roller which can be provided with connector liquid and can be rotated about its vertically movable axis to apply a connector liquid to the labels.
  • the connecting liquid such as, for example, solvents such as perchlorethylene, which, when labeling compact cassettes made of plastic material, dissolve the surface of the compact cassette when the labels are applied, thereby ensuring a connection between the cassette and the label.
  • suitable adhesives of various types for example cold glues but also hot-melt adhesives, can also be applied to the labels in order to produce a firm connection between the object to be labeled and the label.
  • the labels can also be provided with adhesive adhesives, so that the labels can later be removed again, for example by the buyer of the labeled object.
  • Another preferred embodiment of the device according to the invention provides that the application roller is covered with fabric.
  • the application roll is covered with fabric.
  • the applicator roll with grooves or grooves to improve the application of the connector liquid on the label, an extremely clean application of the connector liquid on the label is achieved by providing the application roll with a fabric covering.
  • the wetting of the labels can be carried out in an optimal manner.
  • the applicator roll with a stocking around is stretched or that the applicator roller is provided with a clamping device extending over its length, in which a rectangular piece of cloth is clamped on both sides, the latter configuration having the advantage that the piece of cloth can be clamped so firmly that it cannot slip. So that such a clamping device cannot impair the wetting of the labels, according to a further embodiment of the device according to the invention it is provided that the applicator roll can be rolled reversibly such that the clamping device is kept away from the label surface.
  • Another extremely preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the applicator roller rolls in a connector liquid bath located below it and vertically movable with its axis; and that the vertical distance between the axis of the applicator roller and the lower edge of the label located in a label holder is at least 30 mm.
  • the vertical distance between the axis of the applicator roller and the lower edge of the label located in a label holder is at least 30 mm.
  • the application is not completely uniform over the length of the label; Accordingly, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the liquid applied to a label is distributed uniformly seen that the applicator roller is slightly convex.
  • the application of the connector liquid to the labels to be applied to the cassettes or the like can be further improved if the device according to the invention has a different design, which is characterized in that the application station, in which the labels are adhered, is opposite the label holder, in essentially vertically arranged moistening plate provided with a moistening cloth, in whose end face facing the moistening cloth opens a plurality of moistening channels near the top edge of the plate, which can be dosed by means of a pump from a central reservoir with the label-making connector liquid; and that a collecting trough for receiving excess connector liquid is arranged below the humidification plate and is connected to the pump via a return line. It is particularly favorable if the moistening cloth is immersed in the connector liquid in the collecting trough, because this creates a wicking effect which ensures particularly uniform moistening of the entire moistening cloth and thus also of the label to be moistened.
  • a particularly favorable transfer of the labels from the supply stack to the label holder results in one embodiment of the device according to the invention, which is characterized by a guide trough arranged in the transfer station essentially horizontally and radially to the rotary head for receiving the supply stack of essentially vertically arranged labels, whose cross-section corresponds essentially to that of the labels and which on their the label holder or R and rotor head facing front end has at least two opposing contact edges for holding the stack of supplies; a pressure plate arranged longitudinally and slidably in the guide trough, pressing the labels towards the contact edges; and a braking device for relieving the pressure on the printing plate and thus the label supply stack after the label holder has been brought up during the label transfer from the supply stack to the label holder.
  • This embodiment of the device according to the invention enables a flawless, pressure-free transfer of the labels from the supply stack to the label holder.
  • the dimensionally die-cut labels located in the label supply stack must be printed beforehand.
  • the respective labels have to be removed from the stack of labels and the new, differently printed labels have to be inserted into them, which likewise means a considerable expenditure of time and thus a reduction in the production output of the device.
  • the fact that the labels located on the cassettes are printed directly in this embodiment results in better printing and a more colorful design of the labels, which results in particular in far Big underground of the labels give advantages. If, as can be provided according to the invention, the labels applied to both sides of an object are printed at the same time, the need for a counter-bearing is avoided, which would be necessary due to the unstable holding of the objects in the transport path with only one-sided printing.
  • a further preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the labels are printed continuously, in particular the labels can be printed by means of a vertical, cylindrical print head which rolls on the passing objects provided with the labels.
  • the labels are printed in multiple colors by means of a plurality of printing stations arranged one behind the other, or that the printed labels are dried with ultraviolet light.
  • each printing station advantageously having a horizontally arranged, vertically unrollable printing roller.
  • the device according to the invention ensures rapid labeling of objects to be labeled, for example when labeling compact cassettes with fixation or precise positioning of both cassettes and labels, a penetration of one hundred and forty cassettes per minute and more can be achieved, while known labeling devices with fixation of the Labels just a puncture of seventy Cassettes per minute and labeling devices of the generic type achieve a penetration of about a hundred cassettes per minute without fixing; This progress is achieved, for example, by avoiding the time-consuming and complex removal of the labels from the carrier tape, to which the labels must also be applied beforehand.
