Definitions

  • This invention relates to a machine for producing labels.
  • label stock separately adhered to a supportive backing strip is subjected to the sequential actions of printing, possibly but not necessarily laminating, cutting to separate each label from its adjacent leading and trailing labels, and separation and collection of labels and backing strip from label stock waste. If laminating is effected waste laminate is collected downstream of the cutting station in terms of label stock flow through the machine.
  • cutting is effected at the cutting station by substantial energy-consuming heavy cutting heads to which cutting dies or rules are fitted, the cutting heads being movable vertically relative to a support platform or table by ram, crank and/or eccentric driving means.
  • a cutting station comprising a vertically-movable cutting rule or die disposed above, and adapted to cooperate with, a label stock/backing strip support means constituted by a horizontally-extending curved or arcuate element rotatable about a vertical axis.
  • the arrangement is such that the label stock/­backing strip is supported, during the cutting of the label stock, by the rotatable support element which, through the intermediary of the label stock/backing strip, makes continually-changing opposed point contact with the cutting rule or die.
  • the support element is a roller replaceably supported in a carrier having a depending vertical spindle motor-driven via an endless transmission.
  • the label production machine as illustrated and about to be described is provided with a laminating stage. This is optional and can be omitted.
  • the machine comprises a printing station 10 constituted by a dot matrix printer, such a an ink jet printer, controlled and driven by a computer 11, a P.C. for example.
  • a printing station 10 constituted by a dot matrix printer, such a an ink jet printer, controlled and driven by a computer 11, a P.C. for example.
  • the label stock is, as is well known, a web or strip of label material releasably adhered to a backing strip and this web or strip assembly is indicated at 12.
  • This web or strip assembly 12 after printing, is guided via a guide roller arrangemenet 13 including a tracking correction facility if necessary to a laminating station 14.
  • a reeled supply of transparent laminate is indicated at 15.
  • the laminate 16 has an adhesive face covered by a backing strip 17.
  • the laminate/backing strip assembly 16, 17 is guided from the supply reel 15 via a dancer roller arrangement 18 to a stripper roller 19 at which the laminate 16 and backing strip 17 are separated.
  • the backing strip 17 is collected by a reel 20 while the laminate 16 is delivered to engage and become adhered to the printed web or strip assembly 12 by passage through a nip 21.
  • the laminated web or strip assembly now referred to by the reference 22 passes into a cutting station 23.
  • the cutting station comprises a vertically-­movable cutting head 24 driven downwardly by a rotating cam 25 to effect cutting of the laminated web or strip assembly 22 to form individual labels 26. Return of the cutting head 24 away from the laminated web or strip assembly 22 is effected by springs 27.
  • the cam drive is generally indicated at 28.
  • the cutting head 24 removably mounts a carrier 29 provided with a handle 30 to facilitate insertion or removal of the carrier 29 into the cutting head 25.
  • the carrier 29, in turn, removably mounts a cutting rule or die 31 of a configuration determined by the shape of labels 26 to be produced.
  • a support table 32 which may be adjustable in position.
  • the support table 32 has secured underneath a bearing sleeve 33 mounting vertically spaced ball bearings 34 within which is rotatably located and supported a spindle 35.
  • the spindle 35 is integral with a carrier 36 located above the support table 32, which carrier is of channel shape.
  • the channel of the carrier 36 has a deeper central recess or slot 27 within which is removably located a roller 38.
  • the latter is supported in position within the recess or slot 37 by end pegs 39 and lateral angled guide bars 40 bolted or secured in position within the channeled carrier 36 as indicated at 41.
  • the spindle 35 has keyed thereto a gearwheel 42 driven by a motor (not shown) via a timing belt 43 to rotate the carrier 36 and its roller 38.
  • the laminated web or strip assembly 22 passes between the cutting head assembly and the rotating assembly of carrier 36 and roller 38 it is caused to dwell at predetermined intervals at which the cutting head assembly is driven downwards to bring the cutting rule or die 31 in contact with the laminated web or strip assembly 22 which is supported by the roller 38 rotating about the axis of the spindle 35.
  • the labels 26 are therefore cut by the interaction of the cutting rule or die 31 and the roller 38, the cutting action being effected by the roller 38 sweeping around the cutting rule or die 31 and making opposed point contact P1, P2 therewith through the intermediary of the laminated web or strip assembly 22.
  • a separation is effected by guides rollers 44 and 45 with the backing strip and laminated formed labels generally indicated at 46 passing to a collection reel 47 and waste laminated label shock web generally indicated at 48 passing to a collection reel 49.
  • the label stock web and backing strip assembly 12 and laminated web and strip assembly 22 are respectively guided and driven by nips 50 and 51, whereof the drive is effected by stepper motors (not shown).
  • control box 52 The machine controls and indicators are housed in control box 52 and include stop and start controls 53, 54, a re-register control 55, a web pull control 56 and a label counter 57.
