Definitions

  • This invention relates to apparatus which produces labels by adhesively bonding a transparent overlay tape material in covering relation to the printed surface of an opaque base tape material and, more particularly, to such an apparatus which is a unitary, stand-alone unit for positioning adjacent a computer printer having a tractor-type paper feed mechanism.
  • the apparatus is operable to concurrently deliver a continuous web of blank base tape material to the printer, receive the web of printed base tape material therefrom, and adhesively apply a continuous web of transparent overlay tape material thereto thereby producing a continuous web of smudge-proof, dirt-resistant labels which are cut or otherwise separated from the web into individual labels for application to a substrate such as the binding of a library book, for example.
  • the type of base and overlay tape materials preferably used to make the labels with the present invention are disclosed in prior U.S. Patent No. 4,564,411, which issued on January 14, 1986 to Gaylord Bros., Inc., which patent is of common ownership with the present application.
  • the '411 patent discloses three different embodiments of label producing apparatus which operate by detachably mounting to a typewriter or printer having rolling, movable and fixed platens.
  • individual spools of the base tape material and overlay tape material are rotatably mounted upon respective spindles and are unwound therefrom and ultimately directed between an upper, pressure-loaded roller and a lower drive roller which are rotatably mounted with tangent surfaces in rolling engagement with one another.
  • the typewriter platen serves as the drive roller.
  • the drive roller shaft of the label producing apparatus coaxially connects to the drive shaft of the sheet-feeding tractor mechanism of the printer.
  • the base tape material spool is mounted via a second assembly to an internal portion of the printer housing with the base tape material being directed upwardly therefrom, between the fixed platen and printer head of the printer, and between the feed rollers which are located thereabove on the printer housing.
  • the invention comprises an apparatus for producing smudge-proof, extremely durable adhesive labels from continuous webs of base tape and transparent overlay tape materials.
  • the tape materials are provided in continuous web form on respective spools having respective rigid, annular core members onto which the tape material webs are wound at the point of manufacture.
  • the base tape material comprises a web of label material having opposite print-receiving and adhesive surfaces, and a web of carrier material removably secured in covering relation to the adhesive surface to protect the integrity thereof prior to use, and to provide web-travel alignment means as described more fully later.
  • the transparent overlay tape material comprises a continuous web of transparent material having opposite adhesive and non-adhesive surfaces.
  • the label producing apparatus is a unitary, stand-alone unit which is positioned in nearby proximity to (preferably behind) a computer printer having a conventional, sheet-feeding tractor mechanism.
  • the apparatus includes first and second, planar side panels which are fixed in spaced, parallel planes to each other and which include linear bottom edges which are placed upon a horizontal surface to support the apparatus in an upright, working position. The remaining components of the apparatus are mounted to and thus supported by the side panels above the horizontal surface upon which the apparatus is laid.
  • the apparatus includes forward and rear spindles which are fixed to extend along spaced, parallel axes, and on which the overlay tape and base tape material spools are rotatably mounted, respectively.
  • the web of blank base tape material (comprising the label layer having an adhesive surface and the carrier label applied thereto) is initially directed from its spool, around guide rails, and to the printer where it is fed between the printer platen and printer head in the usual manner of paper feeding for a printer having sheet-feeding tractor mechanism.
  • the carrier layer portion of the base tape material includes two continuous series of longitudinally spaced, laterally aligned perforations extending closely adjacent the two opposite, parallel side edges thereof, which register with equally longitudinally spaced alignment pins on the pair of laterally spaced tracks of the sheet-feeding mechanism.
  • the tracks of the feeding mechanism are closed loops and, as the tracks rotate, the pins thereon feed the paper through the printer.
  • the base-tape material is directed back to the apparatus which includes a web guide means in the form of a non-powered, sheet-feeding tractor mechanism substantially identical to the powered sheet-feeding mechanism on the printer.
  • the printed base tape material web is removably engaged to portions of the web guide means in the same manner as it is engaged to the paper feed mechanism of the printer.
  • the web guide means of the label producing apparatus is located forwardly of and below the forward spindle carrying the spool of transparent overlay tape material, and immediately forwardly adjacent a pair of feed rollers which act together to apply pressure to the webs of overlay tape material to the printed base tape material as they pass between the rollers.
  • the feed rollers comprise a first drive roller and a second, spring-loaded friction roller which are rotatably mounted between the side panels in parallel and intimate contact with each other.
  • the drive roller is rotatably connected to a knob which is located adjacent the outer surface of one of the side panels for manually turning the roller to feed the base tape and overlay tape materials together between the feed rollers in the manner described more fully below.
  • the spring-loaded roller is adjustably biased against the drive roller and rotates with and in a direction opposite to the drive roller due to the high friction material from which each roller is made (e.g., 50 durometer rubber).
  • the overlay tape material web is directed from its spindle downwardly around a guide shaft extending parallel thereto and which includes means for adjustably maintaining the lateral alignment of the web as it travels from its spool towards the feed rollers, where its path meets that of the web of printed base tape material.
  • the overlay tape material is directed between the feed rollers concurrently with the base tape material which is directed therethrough by the paper feed mechanism located immediately forwardly adjacent thereto.
  • the spool of overlay tape material is mounted upon its respective spindle such that the adhesive surface of the overlay tape material is placed in contact with the printed surface of the base tape material as the two materials beet and connect at the juncture of the feed rollers.
  • the feed rollers thereby effect the substantially permanent adhesion of the transparent overlay tape material web to the label layer as the webs travel between the rollers.
  • the resultant web may thereafter be cut into individual labels as desired and adhered to a desired substrate after removing the carrier layer from the adhesive surface of the label layer of the base tape web.
  • apparatus 10 for producing labels denoted generally by the reference numeral 10 positioned atop a horizontal surface in nearby proximity to a conventional computer printer 12.
  • apparatus 10 is operable to direct an elongated web of blank base tape 14 to printer 12, receive printed base tape 16 therefrom, direct the printed base tape web 16 over web alignment means 18 and between a pair of contacting feed rollers 20 and 22, while simultaneously directing and applying a web of transparent overlay tape 24 over the printed surface of the base tape web between the feed rollers thereby creating a smudge-proof, durable label web 26 which is to be cut or otherwise separated into individual labels for subsequent application to a desired object.
  • the blank base tape and transparent overlay tape webs 14 and 16 are wound in the form of spools 28 and 30, respectively, at the point of manufacture.
  • web 14 comprises two separate webs, i.e., an elongated label layer 14' having opposite print-receiving and adhesive surfaces 32 and 34, respectively, and an elongated carrier layer 36 disposed in covering relation to the adhesive surface 34 to protect the integrity thereof prior to use.
  • apparatus 10 is operable to adhere transparent overlay tape web 24 in superposed relation to label layer 14'.
  • Overlay tape web 16 includes opposite non-adhesive and adhesive surfaces 40 and 42, respectively.
  • Overlay tape web 24 and label layer 14' are of substantially the same widths and are longitudinally centered along carrier layer 26.
  • carrier layer 36 includes two continuous series of longitudinally, equally spaced and laterally aligned perforations 38 adjacent opposite side edges thereof on opposite sides of overlay tape and label layer webs 24 and 14', respectively.
  • Perforations 38 serve to laterally align the base tape webs through printer 12 and apparatus 10 by removably registering with pins located on the feed mechanism 12' and web guide 18 on printer 12 and apparatus 10, respectively, as will be more fully described below.
  • the adhesive applied to surface 34 of label layer 14' is preferably both pressure-sensitive in order to releasably adhere to carrier layer 36, and heat-sensitive, in order to form a strong bond when adhered to a substrate such as a book binding, for example.
  • Label layer 14' is also preferably formed of TEBLAR®, manufactured by DuPont, due to its strong durability characteristics and print quality.
  • the adherence of transparent overlay tape 24 over the printed label layer 14', as carried out by the present invention, ensures a smudge-proof, dirt-resistant and durable label which will stand up to years of normal handling.
  • label producing apparatus 10 is seen to include a pair of four-sided, planar side panels 44 and 46 which are of identical outline and fixed in spaced, parallel planes to each other.
  • Panels 44 and 46 include linear bottom edges 44' and 46', respectively, which may be set upon a horizontal surface 48 (Fig. 4) to support the remainder of the apparatus 10 which is mounted to panels 44 and 46 above surface 48.
  • first and second lower plates 50 and 52 which are of polygonal outline are fixedly secured to panels 44 and 46, respectively, by screws 54, with a portion 50' and 52' of each extending vertically above panels 44 and 46, respectively.
  • Lower plates 50 and 52 serve to rotatably carry feed rollers 20 and 22 therebetween as well as web guide 18.
  • a single upper plate 56 removably attaches to upper portion 50' of first lower plate 50 and includes an integral arm 58 having a notch 60 (Fig. 8) which is positioned about a threaded shaft 62 (Fig. 5).
  • a knob 64 is attached to the end of shaft 62 and is manually turned to threadedly advance shaft 62 within threaded aperture 66 in upper portion 50' of lower plate 50 thereby frictionally securing upper plate 56 between plate portion 50' and knob 64.
  • plates 50, 52 and 56 provide support frame means for elements of apparatus 10.
  • Upper plate 56 includes first and second, laterally spaced threaded apertures with which the threaded portions of first and second spindles 72 and 74 engage by inserting the spindles through the apertures and turning knobs 76 and 78 which are fixedly mounted to the ends of spindles 72 and 74, respectively, until knobs 76 and 78 abut the outer surface of upper plate 56.
  • the threaded portion 70 of spindle 74 and the threaded aperture 71 in plate 56 are seen in hidden lines in Fig. 5, it being understood that the connections of spindles 72 and 74 to plate 56 are identical.
  • Spools 28 and 30 of base tape and overlay tape webs 14 and 24 are removably, rotatably mounted upon spindles 72 and 74 by simply passing the open, annular centers of spools 28 and 30 over the free ends 72'' and 74'' of spindles 72 and 74, respectively.
  • spindles 72 and 74 include a plurality of longitudinally spaced, annular grooves 80 and 82, cut or otherwise formed therein adjacent ends 72'' and 74''.
  • Spindles 72 and 74 further include radially extending pins 84 and 86, respectively, which serve as left lateral stops for spools 28 and 30 when mounted thereon.
  • Clips 88 and 90 (Figs.
  • overlay tape guide shaft 92 is fixedly attached at a first end 92' thereof to upper plate 56 and extends forwardly and below overlay tape spindle 74 in spaced, parallel relation thereto.
  • a pair of annular stops 94 and 96 are removably slidably mounted upon guide shaft 92 and include Allen-type set screws 98 and 100, respectively, to adjustably secure stops 94 and 96 to achieve a predetermined spacing s upon shaft 92.
  • the spacing s should be substantially equal to the width w of overlay tape web 24 (Fig. 2) with stops 94 and 96 positioned upon shaft 92 in direct alignment with the lateral edges of spool 30 (as seen from the front of the apparatus as in Fig.
  • the blank base tape web 14 is directed from spool 28 to printer 12.
  • Spools 28 and 30 are mounted upon respective spindles 72 and 74 such that webs 14 and 24 are both unwound in a clockwise direction, as viewed in Figure 4.
  • base tape web 14 is directed downwardly and between a pair of spaced, parallel guide rails 102 and 104 which are fixedly mounted to and extend between lower plates 50 and 52 at opposite rear corners thereof.
  • guide rails 102 and 104, as well as spindles 72 and 74, guide shaft 92 and feed rollers 20 and 22, all extend along parallel axes.
  • Tractor-type paper feed mechanism 12' on printer 12 has a pair of conventional, pin-type paper feed tracks which are individually laterally adjustable relative to each other to accommodate papers of varying widths.
  • the individual tracks 12'' and 12''' of mechanism 12' are thus adjusted to the proper lateral spacing to removably retain web 14 therein by registering the perforations 38 along each edge of web 14 with the pins 13 on tracks 12'' and 12''', respectively (Fig. 4).
  • printer 12 prints the desired indicia upon the print-receiving surface of label layer 14' of the web 14, as the latter is fed therethrough in the normal manner of tractor-type paper feeding printers.
  • Printed base tape web 16 is then directed to a web guide means 18 (non-powered) which is mounted for operation upon apparatus 10 between the opposite forward portions of lower plates 50 and 52.
  • Guide means 18 is of the same general type as mechanism 12' on printer 12 and, as seen best in Fig. 9, includes a pair of guide tracks 108 and 110 which comprise continuous, flexible loops rotatably supported upon a respective pair of rigid support members 112 and 114 such that tracks 108 and 110 assume substantially identical, oblong shapes.
  • First and second shafts 124 and 126 extend through respective, aligned openings in support members 112 and 114 to mount mechanism 18 to apparatus 10.
  • Support members 112 and 114 are slidable along shafts 124 and 126 to permit selective variation in the lateral spacing thereof with the positions of the support members releasably fixed to the shafts by mechanism described later.
  • Tracks 108 and 110 are seen to each include a respective plurality of pin-like projections 108' and 110', respectively longitudinally spaced along the outwardly facing surfaces thereof,
  • the lateral spacing of pins 108' and 110' is substantially equal to the spacing between the rows of perforations 38 adjacent each side edge of carrier layer 36.
  • perforations 38 may be placed in registry with the pins 108' and 110' so that the pins extend through the perforations which also have a longitudinal spacing equal to that of the pins.
  • a pair of flaps 128 and 130 are hingedly mounted along the outer side edges of track support members 112 and 114, respectively, and may be moved between and disengaged positions with respect to printed base tape web 16 on guide means 18 in the usual manner of loading and securing punched paper on sheet feeding tractor mechanisms.
  • a pair of identical arms 132 and 134 are coaxially pivotally mounted at rear ends thereof to support members 112 and 114 between shafts 124 and 126 and about an axis lying parallel thereto. Notches in the forward ends of arms 132 and 134 (notch 136 in arm 136 being seen in Figure 9) frictionally engage second shaft 126 when arms 132 and 134 are in the positions shown in Figure 9. Arms 132 and 134 may be moved about their pivots to disengage the notches from second shaft 126, permitting support members 112 and 114 to be slidingly moved laterally upon shafts 124 and 126 to provide proper lateral spacing for alignment of perforations 38 in carrier layer 36 with pins 108' and 110' on tracks 108 and 100, respectively. When arms 132 and 134 are lowered to engage with shaft 126, support members 112 and 114 are locked into a non-movable position upon shafts 124 and 126.
  • web guide means 18 is positioned immediately forwardly of feed rollers 20 and 22.
  • printed base tape web 16 received from printer 12 is directed over web guide means 18 and between feed rollers 20 and 22.
  • overlay-tape web 24 is directed from spool 30, over guide shaft 92, and between feed rollers 20 and 22 in the same direction as printed base-tape web 16 thereby forming protected label web 26.
  • bottom feed roller 22 is rotatably mounted to and between lower plates 50 and 52, and is manually driven by turning a knob 136 which is mounted to the end of feed roller shaft 22'.
  • Shaft 22' extends through an aperture in lower plate 50 adjacent the middle of the top edge of side panel 44, and past side panel 44 a distance sufficient to mount and turn knob 136 freely.
  • the opposite ends of shaft 20 are spring loaded within vertically elongated slots 138 and 140 in lower Plates 50 and 52, respectively.
  • Fig. 10 shows the spring-loaded end of shaft end 20' which extends into plate 52, it being understood that the parts and arrangement thereof are the same for the other end of shaft 20' which extends into plate 50.
  • spring 142 is positioned within slot 138 with a first end of the spring in contacting engagement with square bearing 146 which is fitted about the end of upper feed roller shaft 20' in slot 140.
  • Allen-type screw 150 is threaded into the top of threaded opening 154 which extends into the top edge of lower plate 52 to open into slot 138. Screw 150 is threaded into contacting engagement with the end of spring 142 opposite bearing 146, and is threadedly adjustable within opening 154 to adjust the tension of spring 142 and thus the biasing force of spring-loaded feed roller 20 against bottom feed roller 22.
  • adhesive surface 42 of overlay tape web 24 faces toward the front of apparatus 10 (toward printer 12) and comes into direct contact with the surface of label layer 14' which has been printed with indicia by printer 12.
  • Prior manual alignment of web guide means 18 with stops 94 and 96 on overlay tape guide shaft 92 ensures proper alignment of overlay tape web 24 upon label layer 14'.
  • the juncture of feed rollers 20 and 22 lies immediately rearwardly to web guide means 18 and is approximately co-planar with the plane in which the upwardly facing surfaces of tracks 108 and 110 lie. As such, printed web 16 is fed substantially horizontally between rollers 20 and 22 from web guide 18.
  • rollers 20 and 22 are preferably made from rubber having an approximately 50 durometer hardness.
  • the printed base tape web 16 and overlay tape web 24 are pulled therethrough and pressed against each other thereby adhesively securing the overlay tape to the label layer in the manner previously described.
  • the tracks 108 and 110 are pulled to rotate in the same direction as bottom roller 22 by the carrier layer 36 bearing against pins 108' and 110'.
  • the printed base tape web 16 thus exits to the rear of rollers 20 and 22 with the overlay tape web 24 adhesively applied thereto in complete covering relation to the printed 14' thereof.
  • This web which now comprises the three layers consisting of the carrier layer 36, label layer 14' and overlay tape 24, is indicated at 26 and is seen in Figs. 1 and 4 to be directed over the top of base tape spool 28. Thereafter, the web 26 may be cut or otherwise separated into individual labels. The labels are then applied to a substrate by simply peeling off carrier layer 36 and applying the adhesive surface 34 of the label layer 14' to the substrate.
