Feeding and braking mechanism, in a labelling machine, for a roll of labels (8', 8") which can be drawn over a dispensing edge and carries self-adhesive labels spaced apart from one another, having a drive roller (1) fixedly mounted behind the dispensing edge (24) in the feed direction and a counter-pressure roller (11) which can be pressed against the drive roller (1), thereby trapping the reversing portion (8") of the label roll, and having a roll brake comprising a fixedly mounted stopper (2) and a counter-pressure stopper (3) which can be pressed against the former stopper (2) so as to trap the label roll (8', 8") between them, and having a lever (6) swivel-mounted on the machine frame and comprising a first lever arm (5') carrying the counter-pressure roller and a second lever arm (5") carrying the counter-pressure stopper (3), and which can be swivelled back and forth between two extreme positions by means of a preferably pneumatically or electromechanically operated actuating mechanism (4), such that in one extreme position the counter-pressure roller (11) is pressed against the drive roller (1) while the counter-pressure stopper (3) is raised and in the other extreme position the counter-pressure stopper (3) is pressed against the stopper (2) while the counter-pressure roller (11) is raised, characterised in that the advancing portion (8') of the label roll located in front of the dispensing edge (24) and the reversing portion (8") of the label roll located behind the dispensing edge (24) are passed together between the stopper (2) and the counter-pressure stopper (3), with the result that the advancing portion (8') and the reversing portion (8") of the label roll are jointly wedged between the stopper (3) and the counter-pressure stopper (2) while the counter-pressure roller (11) is raised.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Transport- und Bremsmechanismus in einer Etikettiervorrichtung der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 angegebenen Gattung. Mit Hilfe des Transport- und Bremsmechanismus wird ein Selbstklebeetiketten tragendes Etikettenband schrittweise unter Freigabe eines Selbstklebeetiketts über eine Spendekante gezogen und in den Zwischenphasen angehalten.The invention relates to a transport and braking mechanism in a labeling device of the type specified in the preamble of claim 1. With the help of the transport and braking mechanism, a label tape carrying self-adhesive labels is gradually pulled over a dispensing edge with the release of a self-adhesive label and stopped in the intermediate phases.

Bei einem bekannten Transport- und Bremsmechanismus dieser Art (DE-PS 2 432 501) ist in Vorschubrichtung hinter der Spendekante eine gestellfest gelagerte, kontinuierlich angetriebene Antriebsrolle und eine gegen die Antriebsrolle unter Zwischenklemmen des leeren Rücklaufteils des Etikettenbandes andrückbare Gegendruckrolle sowie eine in Vorschubrichtung vor der Antriebsrolle angeordnete, aus einem gestellfesten Stopper und einem gegen diesen unter Zwischenklemmen des Etikettenbands andrückbaren Gegendruckstopper bestehende Bandbremse vorgesehen. Weiter ist dort ein Hebel gestellfest gelagert, der einen ersten, die Gegendruckrolle tragenden Hebelarm und einen zweiten den Gegendruckstopper tragenden Hebelarm aufweist und der über einen pneumatisch auslösbaren Betätigungsmechanismus so zwischen zwei Endstellungen hin- und herschwenkbar ist, daß in der einen Endstellung die Gegendruckrolle bei abgehobenem Gegendruckstopper gegen die Antriebsrolle und in der anderen Endstellung der Gegendruckstopper bei abgehobener Gegendruckrolle gegen den Stopper gepreßt wird. Die Bandbremse mit Stopper und Gegendruckstopper ist dort in Vorschubrichtung vor der Spendekante angeordnet, wirkt also auf den mit den Selbstklebeetiketten bestückten Vorlaufteil des Etikettenbands. Je nach Ausstattung der Etikettiervorrichtung kann es vorkommen, daß das Etikettenband in Vorschubrichtung hinter der Bandbremse, aber noch vor der Spendekante in angehaltenem Zustand einer Zugbelastung ausgesetzt wird. Solche Zugbelastungen treten beispielsweise bei einer Prägebearbeitung der Etiketten durch den zurückziehenden und noch an den Etiketten haftenden Prägestempel auf. Durch eine solche Zugbelastung kann es bei der bekannten Etikettiervorrichtung zu einer Lockerung des Etikettenbandes im Bereich der Spendekante kommen, die zu Störungen beim anschließenden Spendevorgang führen kann. Um dies zu vermeiden, muß bei der bekannten Etikettiervorrichtung der Rücklaufteil des Etikettenbands durch zusätzliche Maßnahmen, wie beispielsweise durch Umschlingung einer ständig angetriebenen Antriebsrolle oder durch eine im Bereich der Spendekante auf das Etikettenband einwirkende Andrückbürste straff gehalten werden. Maßnahmen dieser Art führen zu einem unnötigen Verschleiß des Etikettenbands und sind bei hohen Zugbelastungen nicht ausreichend.In a known transport and braking mechanism of this type (DE-PS 2 432 501) in the feed direction behind the dispensing edge is a frame-mounted, continuously driven drive roller and a counter-pressure roller that can be pressed against the drive roller with intermediate clamping of the empty return part of the label tape, as well as a feed direction in front of the Drive roller arranged, provided from a frame-fixed stopper and a counterpressure against which it can be pressed against it with intermediate clamps of the label tape. Furthermore, there is a lever fixed to the frame, which has a first lever arm carrying the counterpressure roller and a second lever arm carrying the counterpressure stopper and which can be pivoted back and forth between two end positions via a pneumatically triggerable actuating mechanism in such a way that in one end position the counterpressure roller is lifted off Counter pressure stopper is pressed against the drive roller and in the other end position the counter pressure stopper is pressed against the stopper when the counter pressure roller is lifted off. The tape brake with stopper and counterpressure stopper is arranged there in the feed direction in front of the dispensing edge, so it acts on the leading part of the label tape which is equipped with the self-adhesive labels. Depending on the equipment of the labeling device, it can happen that the label tape is exposed to a tensile load in the feed direction behind the tape brake, but still before the dispensing edge. Such tensile loads occur, for example, when the labels are embossed by the retracting embossing stamp which is still adhering to the labels. Such a tensile load in the known labeling device can lead to a loosening of the label tape in the area of the dispensing edge, which can lead to faults in the subsequent dispensing process. In order to avoid this, in the known labeling device the return part of the label tape must be kept taut by additional measures, such as, for example, by wrapping a continuously driven drive roller or by a pressure brush acting on the label tape in the area of the dispensing edge. Measures of this type lead to unnecessary wear of the label tape and are not sufficient for high tensile loads.

Ausgehend hiervon liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, den bekannten Transport- und Bremsmechanismus der eingangs angegebenen Art dahingehend zu verbessern, daß das Etikettenband im abgebremsten Zustand im Bereich der Spendekante verschleißfrei straff gehalten wird.Proceeding from this, the invention has for its object to improve the known transport and braking mechanism of the type mentioned in such a way that the label tape is kept taut in the area of the dispensing edge in the braked state without wear.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebene Merkmalskombination vorgeschlagen. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen des Erfindungsgedankens ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen.To achieve this object, the combination of features specified in claim 1 is proposed. Further advantageous refinements and developments of the inventive concept result from the dependent claims.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung der Bandbremse ist es möglich, das Etikettenband im angehaltenen Zustand einer Zugbelastung auszusetzen, ohne daß es zu einer Lockerung des Etikettenbands im Bereich der Spendekante kommt.The inventive arrangement of the tape brake makes it possible to subject the label tape to a tensile load when it is stopped without the label tape loosening in the area of the dispensing edge.

Verschleißanfällige Maßnahmen zur Bandstraffung werden dadurch entbehrlich.Wear-prone tape tightening measures are therefore unnecessary.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand von in der Zeichnung in schematischer Weise dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen näher erläutert. Es zeigen

  • Fig. 1 ein Funktionsschema eines Transport- und Bremsmechanismus in der Antriebsstellung;
  • Fig. 2 ein gegenüber Fig. 1 abgewandeltes Ausführungsbeispiel eines Transport- und Bremsmechanismus.
The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to exemplary embodiments shown schematically in the drawing. Show it
  • Figure 1 is a functional diagram of a transport and braking mechanism in the drive position.
  • Fig. 2 shows a modified embodiment of a transport and braking mechanism.

Der in den Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellte Transport-und Bremsmechanismus ist für eine Etikettiervorrichtung bestimmt, in welcher der mit Selbstklebeetiketten 15 bestückte Vorlaufteil 8' eines Etikettenbands von einer nicht dargestellten Vorratsrolle in Richtung der Pfeile 20 abgezogen wird. Der Vorlaufteil 8' wird dabei zunächst an einer Umlenkrolle 16 umgelenkt und dann durch eine aus einem gestellfesten Stopper 2 und einem Gegendruckstopper 3 bestehende Bandbremse hindurch zur nur in Fig. 2 gezeigten Spendekante 24 geführt. Hinter der Spendekante 24, an der die Selbstklebeetiketten 15 freigegeben werden, wird der leere Rücklaufteil 8" des Etikettenbands in Vorschubrichtung zunächst wieder durch die Bandbremse geführt. Die Umlenkrollen 16 und 17 sorgen dafür, daß Vorlaufteil 8' und Rücklaufteil 8" des Etikettenbands im Bereich zwischen Stopper 2 und Gegendruckstopper 3 im wesentlichen parallel zueinander ausgerichtet sind. Beim Anpressen des Gegendruckstoppers 3 gegen den Stopper 2 werden damit beide Bandteile 8' und 8" gemeinsam festgehalten.The transport and braking mechanism shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is intended for a labeling device in which the leading part 8 ′ of a label tape equipped with self-adhesive labels 15 is pulled off from a supply roll (not shown) in the direction of the arrows 20. The forward part 8 'is first deflected on a deflection roller 16 and then passed through a band brake consisting of a stop 2 fixed to the frame and a counter pressure stop 3 to the dispensing edge 24 shown only in FIG. 2. Behind the dispensing edge 24, at which the self-adhesive labels 15 are released, the empty return part 8 "of the label tape is first fed through the tape brake again in the feed direction. The deflection rollers 16 and 17 ensure that the feed part 8 'and return part 8" of the label tape are in the area between stopper 2 and back pressure stopper 3 are aligned substantially parallel to each other. When the counterpressure stopper 3 is pressed against the stopper 2, the two belt parts 8 'and 8 "are thus held together.

Hinter der Bandbremse wird der Rücklaufteil 8" des Etikettenbands an der in Richtung des Pfeils 22 kontinuierlich und mit konstanter Drehzahl angetriebenen, gestellfest gelagerten Antriebsrolle 1 vorbei zu einer nicht dargestellten Aufwickelrolle geführt. Die Drehzahl der Antriebsrolle 1 wird über einen regelbaren Elektromotor oder über ein Regelgetriebe eingestellt.Behind the tape brake, the return part 8 "of the label tape is guided past the drive roller 1, which is driven in the direction of arrow 22 and is driven in a fixed manner and at a constant speed, to a take-up roller (not shown). The speed of the drive roller 1 is controlled by an adjustable electric motor or by a control gear set.

Der Transport des Etikettenbands in Richtung der Pfeile 20 erfolgt mittels der Antriebsrolle 1 dadurch, daß der Rücklauf 8" durch eine Gegendruckrolle 11 gegen die Umfangsfläche der Antriebsrolle 1 gepreßt wird.The label tape is transported in the direction of the arrows 20 by means of the drive roller 1 in that the return 8 ″ is pressed against the peripheral surface of the drive roller 1 by a counter-pressure roller 11.

Die Gegendruckrolle 11 ist auf einem ersten Hebelarm 5' eines um die gestellfeste Achse 10 schwenkbaren Hebels 6 gelagert, auf dessen zweitem Hebelarm 5" der Gegendruckstopper 3 angeordnet ist. Die Betätigung von Gegendruckstopper 3 bzw. Gegendruckrolle 11 erfolgt mit Hilfe eines pneumatisch oder elektromechanisch auslösbaren Betätigungsmechanismus 4, der über eine Steuerstange 7 und ein an deren Ende angebrachtes Gelenk 9 mit dem Hebel 6 verbunden ist, der dadurch zwischen zwei Endstellungen hin- und herschwenkbar ist.The counter pressure roller 11 is mounted on a first lever arm 5 'of a lever 6 which can be pivoted about the axis 10 fixed to the frame, on the second lever arm 5 ″ of which the counter pressure stopper 3 is arranged. The counter pressure stopper 3 or counter pressure roller 11 is actuated with the aid of a pneumatically or electromechanically triggerable actuating mechanism 4, which is connected to the lever 6 via a control rod 7 and a joint 9 attached to the end thereof, which lever can thereby be pivoted back and forth between two end positions.

In der einen Endstellung ist der Gegendruckstopper 3 bei abgehobener Gegendruckrolle 11 unter Zwischenklemmen des Vorlaufteils 8' und des Rücklaufteils 8" gegen den Stopper 2 gepreßt, während in der anderen Endstellung die Gegendruckrolle 11 bei abgehobenem Gegendruckstopper 3 unter Zwischenklemmen des Rücklaufteils 8" gegen die Antriebsrolle 1 gepreßt ist.In one end position, the counterpressure stopper 3 is pressed against the stopper 2 when the counterpressure roller 11 is lifted off, with intermediate clamps of the forward part 8 'and the return part 8 ", while in the other end position, the counterpressure roller 11 is pressed against the drive roller when the counterpressure stopper 3 is lifted off, with intermediate clamps of the return part 8" 1 is pressed.

Eine aus nachgiebigem Material, wie beispielsweise Gummi bestehende Bremsschicht 18 auf Stopper 2 und Gegendruckstopper 3 sorgt für eine zuverlässige und gleichmäßige Abbremsung der beiden Bandteile 8', 8".A brake layer 18 made of resilient material, such as rubber, on the stopper 2 and counter-pressure stopper 3 ensures reliable and uniform braking of the two band parts 8 ', 8 ".

Das Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 2 entspricht weitgehend dem nach Fig. 1. Es ist lediglich dahingehend abgewandelt, daß die Umlenkrolle 17 entfällt und somit der Vorlaufteil 8' und der Rücklaufteil 8" des Etikettenbands auf der gesamten Strecke zwischen Umlenkrolle 16, Bandbremse 2, 3 und Spendekante 24 in kleinem Abstand voneinander im wesentlichen parallel zueinander ausgerichtet sind. Die Spendekante 24 ist am freien Ende eines dünnwandigen Tisches 26 angeordnet, der gleichzeitig als Widerlager für ein nicht dargestelltes, auf die Selbstklebeetiketten von oben her einwirkendes Druck- oder Prägeaggregat ausgebildet ist. Das Etikettenband wird unter Umlenkung um 180° so über die Spendekante 24 gezogen, daß die Selbstklebeetiketten 15 sich aufgrund ihrer Eigensteifigkeit vom Band ablösen.The embodiment of FIG. 2 largely corresponds to that of FIG. 1. It is only modified to the extent that the deflection roller 17 is omitted and thus the forward part 8 'and the return part 8 "of the label tape over the entire distance between the deflection roller 16, band brake 2, 3rd and dispensing edge 24 are arranged at a small distance from one another essentially parallel to one another The dispensing edge 24 is arranged at the free end of a thin-walled table 26 which at the same time is designed as an abutment for a printing or embossing unit (not shown) which acts on the self-adhesive labels from above. The label tape is pulled over the dispensing edge 24 under deflection by 180 ° in such a way that the self-adhesive labels 15 detach from the tape due to their inherent rigidity.
