Definitions

  • This invention relates to self adhesive labels and the manufacture thereof, and in particular concerns labels which are supplied in roll form.
  • the labels will mainly be for application, using suitable machinery, to individual articles or objects and to this end the invention also provides a method of and means for applying labels to articles or objects, or the labels may simply be for detachment individually by hand as is the case when labels are provided, for example, for office use.
  • pressure sensitive labels are mounted on a carrier or backing web which is normally a web of paper coated with a suitabale release material such as a silicone compound.
  • the adhesive labels are applied to this carrier or backing web for transportion, storage and utilisation, but the labels can readily be peeled from the backing web as there is much a stronger bond between the adhesive and the material of the label, than between the adhesive and the release material.
  • the manufacture of the backing web is a specialist process, and must be performed under carefully controlled conditions.
  • the equipment to produce the backing web is expensive, and is extremely large, so that only a very few companies are able to finance and perform the backing strip manufacture.
  • the relase coat material is a polyerisable material and requires to be heated after application to the paper. The heating time, in order to polymerise the material is related to the quantity applied, and because of the absorbency of the paper web a long period of heating is required to produce the finished product.
  • the present invention is concerned with novel forms of pressure sensitive labels, and with a method for producing pressure sensitive labels which adapts itself to the utilization of relatively simple and relatively small dimension machinery, enabling the in-house production of pressure sensitive labels by the manufacturers of the basic substrate material.
  • a manufacturer typically is referred to as a "convertor” in that he converts the raw material into sheets and webs.
  • the invention also relates to machinery for producing the labels and a method of and means for applying of such labels to products.
  • ahesive labels in roll form defined by a web of non-porous material which is substantially non- etensible, said web having at one side of the web a pressure sensitive adhesive and having at the other side of the web a pressure sensitive adhesive release coating whereby the web can be rolled up without the need for a backing strip.
  • non-porous web presents the consiaerable advantage that when the release coating is applied thereto, it can be applied in relatively small amounts, which means that the curing time for the release coating is reduced, and lower curing temperatures (as compared to the curing temperatures used in U.S. Patent No. 3,575,788 can be used). Moreover, it is not necessary to apply a nitrocellulose base ink to the web before application of the release coating.
  • the web should be other than cellulose fibre based as cellulose fibre webs have the disadvantages as aforesaid.
  • the web is preferably of a relatively non-extensible material so as to enable the individual labels to be cut therefrom.
  • the pressure sensitive adhesive may cover the entire surface area or parts of the -surface area which in certain cases minimises the risk of the pressure sensitive adhesive being squeezed from the coil of laoels to interfere with the unwinding ot the web and can increase the ease with which the web of labels can be applied to the product.
  • the web is die cut to define individual labels therein and the release coating is applied over the cuts to provide extra retention strength holding the labels together or to the remainder of the web.
  • the perforations or other lines of weakening caused by the die cutting may define the labels so that when the labels are removed from the web there remains a skeletal waste of the web material, but it is also within the scope of the invention that the perforations or other lines of weakening should be arranged so that the entire web area defines labels, with no surplus.
  • the web may be printed to define the labels, the printing being on the side of the web to which the release coating is aplied.
  • the web is of a synthetic resinous material containing an inorganic filler such as talc or chalk.
  • adhesive labels in roll form comprising a web of base material, a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side of the web and a pressure sensitive adhesive release coating on the other side so that the web can be rolled up without the use of a backing strip, the web having defined therein, by die cutting or the like, individual labels, which can be individually detached from the roll, and by virtue of the adhesive, attached to articles to be labelled.
  • the web may be fibrous or non-fibrous, the novel feature being that the web has individual labels defined therein for removal therefrom, each having pressure sensitive adhesive on one side and release coating material on the other web.
  • the release coating is applied to the web after the die cutting or the like, so that the release coating fills the cuts to lessen the tendency of the labels to detach from the web as unrolling of the web is taking place.
  • a method of manufacturing labels wherein a web of non-fibrous material which is relatively inextensible is printed to define individual labels therein, a pressure sensitive adhesive is applied to one side of the web and a pressure sensitive adhesive release coating is applied to the other side of the web so that the web of labels can be rolled up without requiring a backing strip, the adhesive and release coating being subjected, if necessary,, to treatment to dry/and cure the same before rolling the web into roll form.
  • the release coating is a heat curable material
  • the web is passed through a hot air oven at a temperature of 11 0 °C to cure the release coating. It is preferred that the web should travel in a continuous path through a release coating station, a release coating curing station, an adhesive application station and an adhesive drying station, but not neccessarily in that order.
  • the web material defining the labels will be of a thickness consistent with the thickness of the labels as conventionally used and may be provided with sprocket feed holes at the edges thereof.
  • the labels which are defined in the web and are removable from the web to leave a skeletal waste
  • these labels are defined by perforations, these may be such as to leave sufficient "catchpoints" between the label and the remainder of the web so that the label will remain in position of the web until such times as it is forceably removed or displaced therefrom.
  • the leading edge of the label, which is first attached to the product or article may be free of such catch points so that it will deflect readily out of the web to simplify application.
  • the release coating may be applied to the web by rollers, gravure cylinders or hot melt applicators to provide a surface having a release characteristic.
  • the coating may for example contain non-migrant repellants, and in particular, polymerisable silicone polymers.
  • the coating may for example be a soluent heat cured coating, an aqueous system, solvent free or UV cured, examples of the above are as follows:
  • the amount of release coating applied may be in the order of 0.1 to 1.5 grams/sq. metre depending upon the web.
  • the pressure sensitive adhesive may be applied by conventional means, and typicallay may be a solvent or water based emulsion of which the solvent or water is dried from the web after application.
  • the pressure sensitive adhesive may for example be hot melt, water based, or solvent based, examples of which are as follows:
  • Elvax * 40-P (Du Pont) (Ethylene-vinyl acetate resin) - 40 parts by weight.
  • Piccovar * L-60 Hercules Inc.
  • Hydrocarbon resin Hydrocarbon resin
  • Irganox * 1010 (Ciba Geigy) (Antioxidant) - 0.5 parts by weight.
  • the labels may be colour printed by any suitable method such as letter press, flexographic, gravure or offset litho.
  • polypropylene or high density polyethylene film including substantial proportions of particulate inorganic material.
  • the inorganic material may be included in the range 20 to 50% of the web by volume, and in the preferred case the web is polypropylene ethylene sequential copolymer, as described in our British Patent No. (1544,143) filled with 40% talc.
  • Fig. 1 there is shown a web 10 having perforations 12 defining individual labels 14, each provided with printing 16.
  • Catchpoints 18 serve to hold the labels to the remainder of the web 10, but the catchpoints can be burst or cut to enable removal of labels 14 leaving a residual skeletal waste.
  • the web 10 is made up of a central substrate web 20 which is of a non-fibrous and substantially inextensible material and on one side of wnich is applied a pressure sensitive adhesive coating 22, and on the other siee is applied a release coating 24.
  • the web is shown in greatly enlarged dimension in Fig. 2, to illustrate the slits 12 and also to illustrate how the coating materials 22 and 24 Migrate into the said slits 12.
  • the substratge 20, aahesive coating 22 and release coating 24 are of a nature as described herein, and the web is wound so that the adhesive coating 22 is to the inner side of each coil and contacts directly on the release coating 24 of the adjacent inner coil. This arrangement enables the web 10 to be easily unrolled.
  • the web may be wound on a suitable core 26.
  • the printing 16 (single or multi coloured ana of any desired pattern and/or content) is applied to the substrate 20 prior to the appliation of the coating 24 and in audition, the perforations or slits 12 are formed prior to the application of the said coating 24.
  • the coating 24 in fact nas the effect of assisting the holding of the labels 14 in position in the web until they are removed for application to articles.
  • the coating 24 also serves the purpose of preventing migration of the adhesive 22 though the slits 12 when the web is wound on core 26. This tendency to migrate will depend upon how tightly the roll is wound on core 26.
  • Figs. 3 and 4b illustrate diagrammatically how the individual labels 14 may be removed from the web 10 ana applied to can bodies such as can body 28.
  • the web 10 is shown as travelling round a guide drum 30 in the direction of arrow 32, with the pressure sensitive adhesive coating side outermost.
  • Each can 28 to be labelled comes into contact with the pressure sensitive siae of the web 10, and a label 14 is removed from the web 10 and applied to the can body 28, as shown in Fig. 4. How this is achieved will depend upon the design of the equipment, but it is envisaged tha the web 10 will be held by suitable sprocket wheels or rollers engaging holes at each side of the web and the web will be indexed forwards towards the product to be labelled.
  • the leading edge of the label having regard to its direction of movement (arrows 32), can be released from the web by a suitable knife or by virtue of changing the direction of movement of the web sharply.
  • the contact pressure between the pressure sensitive surface and the product being labelled can be used to effect or assist the complete removal of the label from the web. The removal may if necessary be assisted by severing the remaining catchpoints 18 by means of suitable knives positioned appropriately.
  • the skeletal waste of the web 10 may be wound up into a suitable coil for disposal.
  • the web shown in Fig. 1 has the labels defined therein oy the perforations or slits 12, which are arranged to leave a skeletal waste, but in the arrangemenr of Fig. 5, the slits 12 define lines of weakening extending across the entire width of the roll, so that the individual labels 14 constitute the entire web without any wastage.
  • the feed and applicator apparatus for handling this form of web may have to be modified as there is no resulting skeletal waste, and if necessary, the corners of the labels may be profiled as indicated by reference numeral 34.
  • the web 10 of the roll of labels shown in Fig. 5 is constructed in the same manner as the web described in relation to Figs. 1 and 2.
  • a web 10 carries printing 16 which repeats at pitch lengths P, but the web has no perforations, or lines of weakening.
  • the wen defines contiguous labels which have to be cut from the web by suitable cutting equipment located in the region of the application head 36 so that individual labels are cut from the web immediately prior to or during application of the label to the article 28 to which the label is being applied.
  • the individual labels can make up the entire web as illustrated in the arrangement of Fig. 5, or can be portions to be cut from the web as indicated in Fig. 1, but in this arrangement also no carrier sheet is required, as the web 10 will be constructed in the same fashion as the web 10 illustrated in Fig. 1.
  • Fig. 7 shows, in somewhat greater detail how labels in roll form as shown in Fig.
  • the roll of labels is indicated by numeral 42 and is unwound from this roll by a tractor unit 44 having a suitable sprocket feed device which engages the holes in the margins of the web 10 (the said holes are not shown in the drawings) and is fed through a removal and application station 46.
  • the skeletal residue of the web 10 is wound into roll form as shown by numeral 48.
  • the adhesive side of the web 10 is the upper side and all surfaces which contact this adhesive side are required to be of a nature so as not to adhere to the adhesive. Such surfaces may be defined by silicone release material.
  • the removal and application station 46 comprises an upper presure nip roller 50 (silicone coated) and a lower vacuum cylinder 52 around which the web 10 laps slightly as shown in Fig. 7, and which has a plurality of circumferentially spaced ports 54 which connect with axially extending passages 55, which are selectively connectable to a source of vacuum or, when at detachment position 56, with a blast of air under pressure.
  • a valve plate 58 at one end of the cylinder controls the connection of the passage 55 to the source of vacuum and the blast of air in that said plate 58 has an arcuate port 60 coupled to the source of vacuum and a port hole at position 56 connected to the air under pressure.
  • tne cylinder 52 rotates in Lhe direction of arrow 62 whilst the plate 58 remains stationery and each passage 55 which registers with port 60 is connected to the source of vacuum.
  • Each passage 55 which leaves register with slot 60 arrives first at position 56 where it receives a blast of air under pressure, and then the passage is blanked off until it once more reaches the port 60.
  • the individual labels L are detached by the vacuum at the nip between roller 50 and cylinder 52, and travel round with the cylinder 52 until they reach station 56 at which they are progressive applied to the products 40 which are moving as indicated by arrow 63, in synchronism with the feed of the labels.
  • the labels and products may be fed on an indexing or continous basis, with interlinking controls ensuring that the operation proceeds only when the presence of a label and a product has been detected.
  • Fig. 7 could be modified to handle a roll of labels such as shown in Fig. 6, which are required to be cut from the web, and a suitable die cutting means would be provided in the region of the application station.
  • a roll 110 of stock material in which labels are to be formed may suitably be of a width of 450 millimetres and thickness 80 micron, the material may be a blown film manufactured from a filled plastics material of the nature set out in British Patent No. 1,554,143, but in any event should be a non-fibrous and substantially non-extensible material.
  • the web passes from roll 110 through silicone compound coating assembly 112 at which release coating is applied to one side (the first side) of the web, and then the web travels through a heating chamber 116 which is divided into two compartments 118 and 120 by means of a horizontal partition 122.
  • the release coating is cured by passing the web back and forth through the chamber 118 with the first side initially face downwards then face upwards.
  • the web emerges from the chamber 118, after a traverse time of 20 seconds in an enviroment maintained at 120 o C, ana the web is engaged by a pair of guide rolls 124 and 126.
  • the web next passes through a pressure sensitive adhesive coater assembly 128 of the form shown which applies pressure sensitive adhesive composition to the other and second side of the web.
  • the web is led by means of feed conveyor 130 into the upper heating chamber 120 which is maintained at 110°C, in order to drive off the solvents of the adhesive coatings, to dry same.
  • the emergent web passes over guide rolls 132 and 134 (134 being silicone coated so that it will not stick to the adhesive side of the web which it contacts) and then passes through die cutting rolls 35, 138 (138 being silicone coated) which define tne individual labels in the web and the web is wound into roll 140.
  • the above equipment is extremely simple and can be operatea by convertors of raw material on an in-house basis, the entire treatment having a cyle time of no more than half a minute to one minute and the overall length of the apparatus being no greater than 8-10 metres.
  • the web material 110 will usually be pre-printed to define the label printed matter, and the silicone composition is applied over the printed side of the web.
  • the rollers 124 and 126 may be the rotary die cutting rollers in order to define the individual labels in the web by cutting through the web to def ine the labels but also to leave catch points whereby the labels remain connected to the web stock material until displaced therefrom, instead of rollers 134 and 136.
  • the silicone release coating is an ultra violet curable material, and therefore after the coating is applied, the web is passed through an ultra violet dryer 140, which is quicker and less expensive than hot air drying.
  • the adhesive is applied and dried as before.
  • both the silicone release coating and the adhesive are ultra violet curable and therefore there are two ultra violet driers 140 and 142 respectively for the silicone release coating and the adhesive, through which the web passes in turn after application of the respective coatings.
  • Fig. 11 shows an arrangement similar to Fig. 10 in that ultra violet dryers are used. Only the path of travel of the web is different.
  • the parts of the apparatus in Figs 9, 10 and 11 already referred to in Fig. 8 are designated with the same reference numerals.
  • the web travels fl L st through the silicone coater 112 and second through the adhesive coater. This order could be reversed if desired.
  • an arrangement wherein a UV dryer is used for the adhesive and a hot air dryer is used for the release coating can be adopted.
  • another form of dryer which can be used at least for the adhesive is a radio frequency dryer.
  • the web 110 may be provided with apertures in the margins thereof to enable the feeding of the web in the apparatus for removal of the labels from the web for application to articles before or after being coated.
  • the said apertures may also serve for the driving of the web through the equipment shown in Figs 8 to 11.
  • the temperature at which the curing of the silicone coating takes place will be dictated in fact by the material of the we-b, the speed of the web and the thickness of the coating. Clearly, although the curing time can be reduced by increasing the curing temperature, the temperature cannot be so high as to cause disintegration of the web material itself.
  • the operation will proceed on a continuous basis, but it can be arranged to take place on a step by step basis with dwell times during which the silicone is cured and the adhesive is dried.
  • the thickness of the web can depend upon the application, but typically labels are manufactured in a thickness of approximately 25 to 250 microns, with the filled plastics material web being typically 80 microns.
  • the quantity of silicone coating which is required for such labels typically would be as little as 2 gms. per square metre, whereas with paper webs as much as 40 gms. per square metre may be requirea.
  • an advantage of the preferred method of the invention resides in that the polymerisable release coating, which may be a silicone compound, can be polymerised in a relatively short time by virtue of the fact that the substrate web material is non-fibrous and therefore • will not absorb the release coat material when applied. This means that only a fraction of the amount of release coat material normally applied will be used (as little as 5% as compared to the conventional methoa) and correspondingly the curing time is significantly reduced. With a slow curing time, correspondingly simpler and therefore smaller machinery can be employed for the manufacture of the labels.
  • the polymerisable release coating which may be a silicone compound
