Definitions

  • the invention relates to a hand-held labeling device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the printing of the self-adhesive labels takes place in a printing zone which is two label lengths away from the dispensing edge counter to the forward direction of the carrier tape.
  • the self-adhesive label which is brought into the dispensing position in one work cycle, in which it can be attached to an object, has already been printed in the previous work cycle.
  • the label After the label has been attached to an object, there is already a label with a print on the device before the start of the next work cycle. If the label to be applied is now changed, this label must be removed from the device so that only labels with the changed label are attached to objects. Since the prints on the labels are usually sales prices, the presence of such a label with an old price label is highly undesirable, since the price of items can be incorrect if the label already printed is removed after a price change is forgotten from the device.
  • the invention has for its object to design a device of the type described in such a way that even with a greater distance between the dispensing edge and the printing zone after the end of a working cycle, there is no already printed but not yet dispensed self-adhesive label in the device.
  • the carrier tape with the self-adhesive labels adhering to it is transported in each work cycle by performing a so-called vocational step movement, which means that the label located on the dispensing edge is first brought back to the printing zone, after which it is then returned to the dispensing edge and beyond until after the printing process is transported to the dispensing position in the forward direction.
  • the device 1 shows a hand-held labeling device 1, with the aid of which self-adhesive labels adhering to a carrier tape can be printed and dispensed for application to an object.
  • the device 1 has an operating lever 2 which is pivotably mounted about an axis 4 which is fixedly connected to the device housing 3 between the rest position shown in FIG. 1 and a pivoted-in position in which it is pulled against the handle 5 fixed to the housing.
  • a shaft 6 mounted on the upper side of the housing serves to receive a carrier tape supply roll 7.
  • the carrier tape with its self-adhesive labels adhering to it reaches a dispensing edge which is at the bottom left in the illustration of FIG. 1 and on which in each working cycle, ie at a pivoting of the operating lever 2 from the rest position to the working position and back to the rest position, a self-adhesive label detaches from the carrier tape, and reaches a dispensing position in which it can be attached to an object.
  • a self-adhesive label 8 is shown in the dispensing position.
  • the operating lever 2 which can be pivoted about the axis 4, is also shown schematically, which has a toothed segment 9, with the aid of which its pivoting movement can be used to drive the actual transport elements.
  • the toothed segment 9 is in engagement with a pinion 10, which sits on a shaft 11 in a rotationally fixed manner.
  • a gear 12 is rotatably connected, which is rigidly connected to the type wheel 13 of a rotary printing unit Nes tooth segment 14 combs.
  • the type wheel 13 and the toothed segment 14 are rotatably supported about an axis 14a.
  • the type wheel 13 has a printing segment 15 in which the printing types are located which are intended to produce an impression in a printing zone 16 on a self-adhesive label 8 on the carrier tape 17.
  • the print types can be numbers, letters or, if a barcode is to be printed, line-shaped types with different widths.
  • the type wheel 13 is composed of a plurality of disks, each of which is provided with printing types on its peripheral surface. By rotating the individual disks about the axis 14a, the individual printing types can be moved to the printing segment 15, so that printing types of adjacent disks can be compiled in this manner in any manner.
  • the carrier tape 17 is guided with the self-adhesive labels 8 adhering to it from the supply roll 7 via a spring plate 18, which keeps the carrier tape 17 taut, to a roller 19 which presses it against the circumferential surface of the type wheel 13 under the action of a spring 20.
  • a cover plate 21 is attached, so that the roller 19, the carrier tape 17 with the self-adhesive labels 8 does not directly against the type wheel circumferential surface, but against that on the mentioned area of this circumferential surface attached cover plate 21 presses.
  • the carrier tape 17 is further passed between a pressure roller 22 which engages with the type wheel 13 via a toothed connection and the type wheel 13, and then reaches a dispensing edge 23.
  • a pressure roller 22 which engages with the type wheel 13 via a toothed connection and the type wheel 13, and then reaches a dispensing edge 23.
  • the self-adhesive labels 8 detach from the carrier tape 17 so that they reach the dispensing position.
  • a self-adhesive label 8 in the dispensing position is shown in dashed lines in FIG. 2.
  • the carrier belt 17 then continues to a transport roller 25, around which it is guided with a relatively large wrap angle.
  • the transport roller 25 is provided with projections 26 which engage in slot-shaped recesses in the carrier belt 17.
  • the slots in the carrier tape 17 are arranged at a distance from one another which corresponds to the length of a self-adhesive label 8.
  • the projections 26 on the transport roller 25 are mounted exactly at a distance from the slots in the carrier belt 17, so that the carrier belt 17 assumes a precisely defined position in the course of the individual operating cycles of the device when the projections 26 are in engagement with the slots in the carrier belt 17.
  • worm springs 27 are provided which are guided around rollers 28, 29, 30 and 31 and loop around the transport roller 25 as well as the carrier belt 17.
  • the carrier tape 17 is passed between the peripheral surface of the transport roller 25 and the worm springs 27.
  • the transport roller 25 is assigned a backstop 32 which is fixedly connected to the device housing 3 and occupies the position shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the backstop 32 contains a backward locking member 33, which consists of a spring-loaded ball.
  • This return locking member 33 cooperates with locking teeth 34 which are attached to an inwardly facing peripheral surface of the transport roller 25.
  • the backstop 32 allows the transport roller 25 to rotate in a clockwise direction, while, due to the locking teeth 34, it opposes a counterclockwise rotation.
  • the transport roller 25 can only be rotated counterclockwise if the spring force exerted on the return locking member 33 is overcome.
  • the return locking member 33 then practically jumps over the locking tooth 34, so that the transport roller 25 can continue to rotate freely until the next locking tooth 34 comes into contact with the return locking member 33.
  • a drive wheel 36 which is shown in section in FIG. 4, is rotatably seated on the axis 35 on which the transport roller 25 is rotatably mounted. If it is taken into account that the transport roller 25 is viewed in the direction of the arrow 37 shown in FIG. 4 in FIGS. 2 and 3, then the drive wheel 36 is seated on the rear of the transport roller 25 in the representations of FIGS. 2 and 3.
  • the drive wheel 36 can be rotated via the gear 12 and the toothed segment 9 by pivoting the operating lever 2.
  • the connection between the drive wheel 36 and the transport roller 25 is formed by a directional lock which contains feed pawls 38 which are rigidly connected to the drive wheel 36 and cooperate with feed ratchet teeth 39 on the transport roller 25.
  • This directional lock permits the transport roller 25 to be rotated clockwise while the drive wheel 36 is held in the view of FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, while preventing rotation counterclockwise. It should be noted here that these directions of rotation in the views of FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are reversed, since in these figures the transport roller is viewed from the rear with respect to FIGS. 2 and 3. In FIGS. 5 and 6, the directional lock thus permits a relative rotation of the transport roller 25 with respect to the drive wheel 36 in the counterclockwise direction, while preventing rotation in the clockwise direction.
  • FIG. 5 and 5 show that not only the forward pawls 38 are rigidly connected to the drive wheel, but also a return pawl 40 which cooperates with drive teeth 41 on an inner circumferential surface of the transport roller 25.
  • the transport roller 25 is driven clockwise by means of the return pawl 40 when the return pawl 40 is in the course of the rotation of the drive wheel 36 encounters a return drive tooth -41.
  • the transport roller 25 sits between two walls 42 and 43, which are firmly connected to the device housing 3.
  • the wall 42 there is an opening 44, the circumference of which, with the exception of a limited circumferential area, is described by a circle around the axis 35 of the transport roller 25.
  • the circumference of the opening 44 deviates from the circular shape in its lower circumferential region and forms a control surface 45, the distance from the axis 35 of which is smaller than at the remaining regions of the opening circumference.
  • the function of this control surface 45 can be seen when viewing FIG. 4 in conjunction with FIGS. 5 and 6.
  • the return pawl 40 protrudes laterally out of the right end face of the transport roller 25.
  • the drive elements assume the basic positions shown in FIG. 2.
  • the basic positions of the forward pawls 38 and the return pawl 40 are shown in FIG. 5.
  • the toothed segment 9 moves counterclockwise about the axis 4, so that the pinion 10, which is in engagement with the toothed segment 9, rotates clockwise in the view of FIG. 2 .
  • the gear 12, which is non-rotatably connected to the axis 11 of the pinion rotates clockwise, so that the type wheel 13 is also rotated counterclockwise by means of the toothed segment 14 rigidly connected to it.
  • Gear 12 also rotates drive gear 36 counterclockwise in the illustration of FIG. 2 (clockwise in the illustration of FIG. 5), with the result that the forward pawls 38 rotate clockwise in the view of FIG. 5 begin to remove the ratchet teeth 39.
  • the carrier tape 17 is pulled in the return direction, ie in the direction of the carrier tape supply roll 7, by frictional engagement due to the action between the roller 19 and the cover plate 21 attached to the type wheel circumference, this pulling force also moves the transport roller 25 in FIG. 2 counterclockwise. This means practically that the transport roller 25 follows the rotation of the drive wheel 36.
  • the relative position of the forward pawls 38 and the drive wheel 36 to the transport roller 25 does not change as a result.
  • the transport roller 25 can only follow the movement of the drive wheel 36 until the return locking member 33 comes into contact with the next locking tooth 34.
  • the backward movement of the carrier tape 17 takes place until the edge 46 of the self-adhesive label 8 adjacent to the dispensing edge 23 lying in the return direction has been pulled back to the printing zone 16.
  • the backward transport path in this initial phase is approximately half a label length.
  • the type wheel 13 also rotates the pressure roller 22 via a toothed connection, which has a circumferential section 47 with a larger radius and a circumferential section 48 with a smaller radius.
  • the larger radius is dimensioned such that it is exactly equal to the distance of the axis of rotation 49 of the pressure roller 22 from the circumference of the type wheel.
  • the axis of rotation 49 of the pressure roller 22 is loaded with a spring, not shown, in the direction of the type wheel when the peripheral portion 47 is in engagement with the type wheel circumference.
  • the spring is ineffective if the circumferential section 48 with a smaller radius is opposite the type wheel 13, so that in this case the carrier tape 17 can move freely between the pressure roller 22 and the type wheel circumference.
  • Fig. 2 shows that immediately after the start of the rotation of the type wheel 13 counterclockwise and thus after the start of the rotation of the pressure roller 22 in the clockwise direction, the carrier tape can be pulled freely between the pressure roller 22 and the type wheel 13.
  • the transport roller 25 becomes detached from the return pawl 40 due to its action on the return drive tooth 41, overcoming the locking force exerted by the return locking member 33 on the locking tooth 34, which has the consequence that the carrier tape 17 can now move again in the return direction as in the initial phase.
  • the carrier tape 17 with the self-adhesive label 8 located thereon is pressed against the type wheel 13 by the peripheral section 47 of the pressure roller 22, so that the types present in the printing segment 15 roll on the self-adhesive label 8 to produce an impression.
  • the carrier tape 17 Since the pressure roller 22 is driven by a toothed connection from the type wheel 13, the now occurring movement of the carrier tape 17 in the return direction takes place exactly synchronously with the movement of the type wheel 13 and the pressure roller 22, because the carrier tape 17 is carried along when the peripheral surfaces are rolled. From the beginning of the renewed transport of the carrier tape 17 in the return direction, the carrier tape 17 is moved in the return direction until the entire printing segment 15 has rolled on the self-adhesive label 8 at the printing zone 16. The operating lever 2 has then reached its pivoted-in position in which it is pulled completely against the handle 5. In the illustrated embodiment, the carrier tape 17 has thus moved a total of about one and a half label lengths in the return direction.
  • the printing segment 15 rolls again on the self-adhesive label 8, since this again moves between the type wheel 13 and the pressure roller 22.
  • the gear ratios between the toothed segment 9, the pinion 10, the gear 12 and the drive wheel 36 are chosen so that the conveyor belt 17 in the course of the return of the operating lever 2 from the pivoted position to the rest position by a distance in the forward direction indicated by arrow 24 is transported, which is equal to the distance of the dispensing edge 23 from the printing zone 16 plus a label length. Due to this dimensioning, it is achieved that the label 8, which was located immediately behind the dispensing edge 23 before the start of the work cycle, assumes the dispensing position indicated by the dashed label 8, in which it is detached from the carrier tape 17 and on a Item can be attached.
  • the different transport in the return direction and in the forward direction is achieved in that the return device slips in a defined manner with respect to the carrier tape, so that the entire pivoting movement of the operating lever 2 from the rest position into the pivoted position does not translate into a transport movement of the carrier tape in the return direction.
  • the opposite direction of movement of the operating lever 2 from the pivoted position into the rest position is completely implemented against a transport movement of the carrier tape in the forward direction.
  • the drive wheel 36 is rotated relative to the latter after the transport roller 25 has come to a standstill until the return pawl 40 engages with the return drive tooth 41 by an angle that is circumferential the transport roller 25 corresponds to a sheet the length of a self-adhesive label.
  • the self-adhesive label 8 in the basic position of the hand-held labeling device 1 shown in FIG. 2 is not yet printed since it, like the above Description of the operational sequence shows that printing is only carried out in the course of the backward transport movement of a work cycle when it reaches the printing zone 16.
  • the print to be produced on the self-adhesive label 8 can therefore be changed without further ado without the risk that an unprinted label is still attached to an object which is already supposed to bear a label with a new print. In the device described, it is therefore not possible for a label to be issued which bears a print which does not correspond to the print types set on the print segment of the type wheel.
