Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for printing and dispensing self-adhesive labels adhering to a carrier tape, with an operating lever which, from a rest position in which it holds a printing unit raised from a printing table, into a pivoted-in position in which it presses the printing unit into contact holds on the printing table, can be pivoted, a transport device for gradually pulling the carrier tape over the printing table and around a dispensing edge at which the self-adhesive labels detach from the carrier tape and reach a dispensing position, one of clamping the carrier tape with the self-adhesive labels adhering to it on the way to Dispensing edge in the rest position of the operating lever serving braking device with a brake actuator which is pressed non-positively into a carrier tape clamping position from which it can be pivoted into a carrier tape release position, a cam mechanism arranged between the brake actuator and the operating lever, so is designed so that the brake actuator is pivoted from the carrier tape clamping position into the carrier tape release position when the
  • Such a device is known from EP-A-0 027 934.
  • the brake actuator is pivoted by means of the cam mechanism from the carrier tape clamping position to the carrier tape release position when the operating lever has covered part of its way from the rest position to the pivoted-in position, and by the interaction of the transport device with the brake actuator, the latter becomes in the carrier tape release position locked, the lock is released in the rest position of the operating lever.
  • a pawl attached to it is held by a spring in contact with the transport teeth of the transport device.
  • the locking device consists of a spring-loaded square axis, which is arranged in the pivoting range of one of the locking arms of the brake actuating element which can be brought into locking engagement and, in the rest position of the operating lever, from a printing unit lever carrying the printing unit and actuated by the operating lever against the spring load the pivoting range of the locking arm is held.
  • the locking of the brake actuating element in the carrier tape release position is controlled by means of the printing unit lever, that is to say without the involvement of the transport device, so that the behaviors described above in connection with the known device cannot therefore be present.
  • FIGS. 1 to 4 show a device according to the invention in four successive operating phases.
  • the device shown in Fig. 1 is provided with a housing 1 to which a handle 2 is attached.
  • a shaft 3 for receiving a supply roll 4 of a carrier tape 5 with self-adhesive labels 6 is attached to the top of the housing.
  • the carrier tape 5 runs in the device from the shaft 3 first downward and then forward to a dispensing edge 7, at which the carrier tape 5 is deflected and passed past a transport device 8 to the rear end of the housing.
  • a pressure roller 9 is rotatably mounted in the housing, with which a label 6 'detached from the carrier tape and in the dispensing position can be glued to an object.
  • the carrier tape 5 On its way from the supply roll 4 to the printing table 15 and to the dispensing edge 7, the carrier tape 5 is passed under a brake plate 19 which is rotatably mounted about an axis 20.
  • a brake actuator 21 is also rotatably mounted on this axis and has the shape of an angle lever with a pressure arm 22 acting on the brake plate 19 and a locking arm 23 projecting generally upwards in FIG. 1.
  • a spring 24 On the axis 20, a spring 24 is attached, which biases the brake actuator 21 in the illustration of FIG. 1 counterclockwise.
  • this spring 24 has a leg 25 which engages with the brake actuating member 21 and a further leg 27 which engages with a support surface 26 fixed to the housing.
  • the brake actuator 21 is provided with a control edge 28 which cooperates with a control member 29 formed by a roller on the printing unit lever 13, as will be explained in more detail later.
  • the brake actuator 21, the control edge 28 attached to it and the control member 29 together form a cam mechanism.
  • the locking arm 23 of the brake actuator 21 cooperates with a lock 30 formed by a square axis, which is mounted so that it can move in the view of FIG. 1 in the vertical direction, whereby it is used by a spring 31 used to achieve a bias Is biased in the downward direction.
  • the locking mechanism 30 is raised by the printing mechanism lever 13 against the force of the spring 31 when it assumes its rest position shown in FIG. 1.
  • the locking arm 23 of the brake actuator 21 can pivot under the action of the spring 24 under the locking 30, so that the locking arm 23 holds it in the raised position, even if the printing unit lever 13 moves again moved down.
  • the rest position shown in FIG. 1 is considered first.
  • the operating lever 10 takes on its lowest position due to the action of the spring 12, and the printing unit lever 13 is held by the nose 18 on the operating lever 10 so that the printing unit 14 is in its highest position.
  • the printing unit lever 13 also presses the lock 30 upwards so that it does not hinder a rotation of the brake actuator 21 under the action of the spring 24 counterclockwise.
  • the brake actuator 21 is pivoted by the spring 24 so that the locking arm 23 has come under the lock 30 and its pressure arm 22 presses the brake plate 19 against the pressure table 15 in a carrier tape clamping position, so that between the brake member 19 and the pressure table 15th running carrier tape is clamped.
  • the control member 29 touches the control edge 28 on the brake actuating member 21, so that this brake actuating member 21 is pivoted clockwise against the action of the spring 24 into the carrier tape release position.
  • This pivoting has the result that the pressure arm 22 lifts up from the brake plate 19 and that the locking arm 23 releases the way of the lock 30 downward.
  • the pressing arm 22 is lifted when the operating lever 10 has covered a third of its way from the rest position to the pivoted-in position.
  • Fig. 3 the printing unit lever 13 is shown in the completely lowered position, in which the printing unit 14 produces an imprint on the label 6 located on the printing table 15.
  • the brake actuator 21 is in the clockwise direction in the release position pivoted so that the pressure arm 22 is lifted off the brake plate 19.
  • the lock 30 holds the brake actuator 21 in the pivoted position.
  • Fig. 4 shows the arrangement of the moving parts between the two end positions of the operating lever 10.
  • the control member 29 is no longer in engagement with the control edge 28 on the brake actuator 21, but can this brake actuator 21 does not rotate clockwise under the action of the spring 24, since it is prevented from doing so by the locking means 30. This means that the carrier tape is not clamped between the brake plate 19 and the printing table 15 in this operating phase.
  • the transport device 8 performs a movement from the position shown in FIG. 3 to the position shown in FIG. 1, but is now firmly engaged with the carrier tape 5, so that this is pulled by a defined distance, which is equal to the length of a self-adhesive label, around the dispensing edge 7.
  • a self-adhesive label is detached from the carrier tape 5 and reaches the dispensing position below the pressure roller 9.
  • the carrier tape movement is not impeded by the brake plate 19, since this, like has already been mentioned, is not pressed by the pressure arm 22 of the brake actuator 21 against the pressure table 15 in this operating phase.
  • the printing mechanism lever 13 abuts against the lock 30 and lifts it so far that it is no longer in engagement with the locking arm 23 of the brake actuator 21.
  • the brake actuator 21 can therefore rotate counterclockwise under the action of the spring 24. Due to this rotation, the pressure arm 22 of the brake actuator 21 comes back into contact with the brake plate 19, so that the underlying band is clamped on the printing table.
  • the self-adhesive label 6 'in the dispensing position can be stuck onto an object by rolling off the pressure roller 9.
  • the importance of the brake device formed by the brake plate 19 and the brake actuator 21 becomes apparent.
  • the label which still adheres to the edge area on the carrier tape 5 must be completely detached from the carrier tape. It happens that the label 6 'in the dispensing position is not completely separated from the next label 6 or that its glue layer is still connected to the glue layer of the next label, so that when the dispensed label 6' is attached to the object, a tensile force is applied to the carrier tape 5 is exercised. If there were no braking device, the carrier tape 5 could move on the printing table 15, so that the label 6 to be printed next is no longer in the correct printing position.
  • the described braking device not only clamps the carrier tape 5 during the application of the label 6 'in the dispensing position, but it is also effective during part of the movement of the operating lever 10 against the handle 2 when the next printing and transporting process is carried out .
  • This has the advantageous effect that the carrier tape is still securely clamped to an object during the application of a self-adhesive label even if the operating lever 10 is already pulled against the handle 2 again for the next printing and transporting operation.
  • This enables rapid working with the device described, the operations of attaching a label and actuating the lever 10 sometimes even being able to pass into one another without the carrier tape 5 being able to be moved on the printing table.
  • the label print can therefore be attached exactly to the intended location on each label.
