  • the known multiple labeling devices have the disadvantage that labeling can only take place from above onto the upper surface of the package.
  • the object of the invention to provide one or more labels not only on the upper surface of the device with a single, universally usable multi-label device which can be assembled from the smallest possible number of modules of the same type according to the modular principle Pack, but optionally also on one or more of their side surfaces, the labels should advantageously be applied so that they can be read from a freely selectable viewing direction.
  • the object is achieved in that everyone Labeling apparatus is equipped with a rotating, flexible label arm and is mounted on a suspension and adjustment device so as to be pivotable about a vertical pivot axis, this pivot axis preferably at the time of its application to the package essentially in the center and essentially in the lower direction can penetrate right to the level of the label.
  • Another advantage lies in the quick, simple handling of the complete device, especially in the case of motorized coordinate setting in the course of a change from one type of pack to another.
  • an appropriate memory When using an appropriate memory, only a new article number needs to be entered.
  • the labels z. B. can be pre-printed in terms of content or color differently per batch.
  • a time-consuming interruption of the labeling process due to changing label rolls can be omitted if it is possible to switch from one labeling device to another.
  • rate are available, the necessary label roll change can be carried out without interrupting the pack advance during the automatic labeling of a batch.
  • Figure 1 shows a multiple labeling device with two rotating labeling apparatus in front view
  • Figure 2 shows the device of Figure 1 in plan view
  • Figure 3 shows the device of Figure 1 with a representation of the timing
  • FIG. 4 shows a rotating labeler for labeling the top surface of a package

  • the device 1 is normally integrated in a complete packaging line or packaging line.
  • the packs 6 delivered from a packaging machine (not shown) in the feed direction T to a feed conveyor belt 5 are successively advanced in a continuous pass by means of known, driven and light barrier-controlled conveyor belts, specifically via a separating belt 7 Weighing belt 8 and a labeling belt 9, up to an outlet 10.
  • the labeling apparatus 2, 3 are firmly connected to the package transport device 4 by means of suspension and adjustment devices 11, 12.
  • Each labeling apparatus 1, 2 is pivotable about a vertical pivot axis 13 and adjustable in any angular position.
  • the labeling apparatuses 1, 2 can preferably be locked in the event of pivoting by 90 °, 180 ° and 270 ° with the aid of a latch (not shown).
  • the pivot axis 13 is at the moment the application of a self-adhesive label 14 to the package 6 essentially in the center of this label, ie the pivot axis 13 of the labeling apparatus 2, 3 penetrates the label 14 essentially in the middle thereof and essentially perpendicular to the plane of this label. In this way, by appropriate rotation of the labeling apparatus, the label 17 can be arranged so that it is readable, in particular with reference to a certain viewing angle.
  • the self-adhesive labels 14 are applied to each labeling apparatus 2, 3 with the aid of a rotating and flexible labeling arm 15 (FIGS. 2 and 3). By pivoting the labeling apparatus 2, 3, the position of the label 14 applied by the labeling arm 15 to the pack 6 is rotated by the same angle.
  • the horizontal position of the label 14 on the top of the pack 6 is determined by two different setting options:
  • the position transverse to the feed direction T can be changed in the direction of the arrow H (FIG. 6) by moving the labeling apparatus 1, 2 in telescopic or slide guides 16, 17, or also by correspondingly moving and locking the packs 6 Guide rails 18, 19 (FIG. 2) transverse to the feed direction T.
  • the position of the package 6 in the feed direction T with respect to the location of the label application is controlled by an adjustable (not shown) electrical timer which applies the application of the label 14 to the package 6 during the passage under the labeling apparatuses 2, 3 delayed by an adjustable time ta, tb, ... ( Figure 3).
  • the passage of time is triggered when the pack leading edge passes through a light barrier 38 with a reflector 39 (FIG. 3).
  • a label web 21 with labels 14 glued onto a carrier strip is transported by a printer 22 and thereby printed.
  • the label web 21 is deflected sharply via a pull-off edge 23 and a self-adhesive label 14 is detached from the carrier strip 24 and dispensed into a transfer station 25.
  • the rotating, flexible labeling arm 15, which is equipped at its free end with a suction head 26 which can be temporarily pressurized, removes the label from the transfer station 25 with this suction head and hits it on the package during its rotation in the direction P. Because of its flexibility, the labeling arm 15 can then return past the package 6 to its starting position at the transfer station 25.
  • the labels 14 can be completely or partially pre-printed and / or printed by the printer 22. Are only completely pre-printed in a labeling apparatus 1 or 2 If labels are used, the printer 2 can be omitted.
  • FIG. 6 shows a vertical adjustability in the direction V.
  • This adjustment in the direction V is necessary to achieve that either the surface or one or more of the side surfaces of the pack advertising labeled 6 'the. Furthermore, the adjustment in direction V serves to adapt to different pack heights h.
  • the labeling arm 15 opens the label onto the upper pack surface (FIG. 4) or one of the four side surfaces of the pack (FIG. 5).
  • the vertical movement in direction V preferably takes place by means of a motor with the aid of a drive motor 27 and threaded spindle 28, the desired position coordinates being stored in an electronic memory (not shown).

  • FIGS. 7a-7d each show, by way of example, different positions of the labeling apparatus 2, 3 according to FIG. 2 in the left column. In the right column of FIGS. 7a-7d, the associated positions of the labels 14 on the packs 6 are shown shown.
  • a marking "E" on the labels in FIG. 7 serves as a symbol for representing the position of the text on the label 14 if the printing or pre-printing is arranged as in the example of the label 32 in FIG. 8.
  • the labeling apparatuses 2, 3 can be rotated about the pivot axis 13.
  • the mode of operation is as follows:
  • the article master data to be printed are stored in the central memory (not shown) of a control unit for each article or batch.
  • the article number is entered via a keyboard 36 of an operating and display unit 37. This activates the associated saved master data and automatically sets the coordinates. The device 1 is thus converted and ready for operation.
