Definitions
- the invention relates to a labeling device for applying labels to packages and goods according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Labeling devices are used to apply product information labels, advertising messages, etc. to packages and goods.
- the labels used for this purpose are mostly self-adhesive labels which, for example, adhere to a carrier strip and are wound together with the latter on a label dispenser roll of a label dispenser.
- the label is separated from the carrier strip by a strong deflection around a pull-off strip and is dispensed to the label receiving surface of a so-called blow labeling device.
- the label is first sucked in by means of negative pressure and then automatically blown onto a package or goods carried by with a blast of compressed air.
- the labels of the different types of goods are very different in size and shape depending on the information content and advertising design.
- Known labeling devices work with blowing labeling devices, in which one has holes or slits Label suction or receiving plate is used at the same time for sucking and inflating the label on the goods. A continuous negative pressure is generated within the blown label housing, which is briefly switched to compressed air via a valve to inflate the label onto the package. The resulting air blast through the holes or slots in the receiving plate causes the label to fly away in the direction of the package.
- this simple embodiment has the disadvantage that the efficiency of the inflation function on the package is impaired when processing labels that are smaller than the receiving plate.
- the openings not covered by the label lead to a loss of pressure energy when switching to the compressed air pulse. This reduces the inflation energy and thus the quality of the adhesive on the package.
- the trajectory of the label is adversely affected by the air jets from the openings located outside the label surface.
- blow hole plate is arranged at a distance above the suction plate, above which there is a pressure chamber.
- the blow openings in the blow hole plate can either be closed with screws or provided with long screw-in nozzles, which bridge the space between the blow hole plate and suction plate and act on the label surface when switching to compressed air.
- blow openings can be covered or left open, depending on the hole pattern.
- This Construction complicated and time-consuming, because it requires a change of the shadow mask and a separate shadow mask must be kept ready for each label shape.
- the invention has for its object to provide a user-friendly labeling device, which allows a quick change to different label sizes and shapes and in the adjustable for the different label sizes, a straight-line label trajectory is achieved at high flight speed with the lowest possible printing energy expenditure. Furthermore, the need to stock a shadow mask for each label shape should be avoided.
- the blast energy of the bladder labeling device or its compressed air source is concentrated on the blower nozzles, which lie within the area of the suction plate occupied by the label, that is, to generate the same label flying speed, the pressure energy, formed by the air volume of the pressure accumulator and the pressure built up , can be reduced for smaller labels.
- the slide element is displaceable in the label dispensing direction, which means that the extent of the surface areas of the suction and blowing plates can be adjusted in the label transport direction.
- the slide element itself is preferably designed as a flat slide, the thickness of which corresponds to the height of the space between the suction plate and the blow plate. In this way, effective sealing of the openings not required in the suction plate and the openings or nozzles in the blow plate is obtained in a simple manner.
- the slide element can be adjusted in the label dispensing direction by means of a handle arranged under the suction plate, a spring element acting as a friction brake preferably acting against the automatic displacement of the slide element.
- a handle arranged under the suction plate
- a spring element acting as a friction brake preferably acting against the automatic displacement of the slide element.
- other fixing means for the slide element can also be used.
- the compressed air source including the blowing plate is made adjustable transversely to the label dispensing direction. This, together with the slide which is longitudinally displaceable in the direction of label dispensing, allows an exact adaptation of the area to which vacuum or compressed air is applied to the label size.
- the trajectory of the labels can be corrected if, for example, curvatures of the label due to the winding on the dispenser roll or because of the eccentric position of the blowing nozzles, corrections of the air flows acting on the label are necessary. These corrections can be made very simply by adjusting the slide element and thus an exactly determinable label placement on the package or goods is achieved.
- a preferred possibility of the defined adjustment of the position of the compressed air source together with the blower plate is, for example, with a threaded spindle which can be adjusted via a rotary knob located on the outside of the blister labeling device, wherein the set label width is preferably made readable on a scale arranged on the outside of the blister labeling device.
- the slide element is provided with a pointer which is visible from the outside and which is moved along a scale together with the slide element.
- the slide element and / or the compressed air source can also be adjusted by motor, in particular using stepper motors.
- the adjustment position data of the slide element and / or the compressed air source can be stored in an article-related data memory Store for each article, whereby this stored data corresponds to the label size to be used (e.g. length x width).
- the stored adjustment positions of the slide element and / or the compressed air source can be approached automatically according to the new position data. This means that the staff only has to enter the article number when changing the articles to be labeled and the labeling machine automatically switches to the specified label size for this article.
- the slide element will preferably bear against the blow plate in a prestressed manner. This avoids that the compressed air pulse creates gaps between the slide element and the blower plate, through which uncontrolled air flows escape. This also ensures that the entire compressed air energy reaches the label and does not escape unused through edge areas, leaks, etc.
- the openings of the blow plate are preferably designed as blow nozzles and aligned with the openings of the suction plate.
- the opening width of the openings in the suction plate is preferably chosen to be larger than the diameter of the blowing nozzles, so that the air jet cones formed by the blowing nozzles can pass through the suction plate essentially unimpeded, thus ensuring a linear flight of the labels from the suction plate to the goods to be labeled is.
- a particularly homogeneous distribution of compressed air is obtained if one arranges a fine-meshed grid either between the slide element and the blow plate or the fine-meshed one Provides grid on the surface of the blow plate facing away from the slide element.
- the fine-meshed grille will cover all openings or blow nozzles of the blow plate.
- the mesh size of the fine-meshed mesh is preferably selected so that it is at most one third of the blow nozzle diameter or opening opening width.
- a particularly uncritical transition between the label dispensing device and the blister labeling device i.e. A particularly secure transfer of the label from the dispensing device to the blowing device is obtained if the side surface of the suction plate facing the label dispensing device is designed as a sliding bevel for the labels.
- the top of the labels dispensed by the label dispensing device then slide along the slide slope, which preferably extends beyond the suction plane and forms a peeling edge there.
- the suction effect of the suction plate of the blown labeling device then takes effect, which tilts the label around the peeling edge and supports the complete detachment of the label from the carrier strip.
- the sliding slope is preferably provided with a multiplicity of ribs running in the direction of label dispensing, which ribs continue particularly preferably up to the peeling edge.
- the ribs which can have, for example, a sawtooth shape, prevent adhesive residues which, due to the production process, sometimes adhere to the outer edges of the labels, become attached to the sliding bevel and lead to malfunctions.
- a supporting air tube can be arranged below the label suction plane, which preferably has a fine air tube Blow nozzles is equipped, with the help of which an air flow can be directed towards the suction plate.
- the supporting air tube is preferably supplied with compressed air via a valve only when required, ie when a label is transferred from the dispensing device to the blister labeling device.
- the air flow for applying the label to the suction plate must be switched off before the pressure pulse for conveying the label from the suction plate to the pack to be labeled occurs.
- Preferred labeling devices comprise a compressed air source, in which a pressure storage chamber is provided directly after the blower plate and can be vented suddenly via a valve. It is particularly advantageous here that the entire compressed air energy can act on the label over a relatively short period of time and a kind of delta-shaped pressure jump can thus be achieved.
- the pressure storage chamber has the advantage that the pressure storage chamber can be filled to the intended pressure value in a slower time scale than the emptying of the pressure storage chamber, so that less Performance when filling the pressure accumulator can be worked.
- the pressure storage chamber is preferably produced in one piece with a valve body for the vent valve and the distributor chamber.
- the pressure storage chamber contains an integrated membrane chamber which contains a pot membrane.
- the pot membrane When filling and maintaining the pressure in the pressure storage chamber, the pot membrane will seal off an injection hole leading to the blowing nozzles and, when the valve is switched over, will release the blowing hole and thus the connection between the pressure storage chamber and blowing nozzles.
- the known label dispenser 1 works in the present embodiment with self-adhesive labels 3, which adhere to a carrier strip 4 and are wound on a label dispenser roll 5.
- the transport of the carrier strip follows a label web 6.
- the label dispenser 1 can, if necessary, have an additional printer 11 for printing variable data on the labels.
- the blown labeling device 2 takes over the label 3 delivered by the label dispensing device 1 and then automatically inflates it onto the package 9, which is brought up via a transport device, not shown.
- the synchronization between the label dispensing device 1 with the printer 11, the blown labeling device 2 and the transport device is accomplished in a known manner via a process control, not shown, with sensor elements.
- the blister labeling device 2 is provided with a housing 12, the interior 13 of which is ventilated by a fan 14 and the air conveyed to the outside through ventilation slots 15 certain negative pressure is held to the surrounding atmospheric pressure.
- a suction plate 16 is formed for taking over the labels 3, which has a plurality of suction openings 17 designed as bores and / or slots.
- the suction plate 16 with its label suction plane 49 is set slightly lower than the dispensing position defined by the pull-off strip 8 of the label dispensing device 1.
- the side surface of the suction plate 16 adjoining the label dispensing device is designed as a sliding bevel 50 for the labels 3 and is provided with a plurality of sawtooth-shaped elevations 51 which extend in the label dispensing direction 24 and continue up to a peeling edge 52. This protrudes slightly beyond the suction level 49.
- the label 3 detached from the carrier strip 4 on the peel bar 8 slides with its front edge first along the slide slope 50 and is deflected slightly downward in its peeling direction by the subsequent peeling edge 52, so that it is at an acute angle to the suction plane 49 below the suction plate 16 runs.
- an air stream is blown against the underside of the label 3 through a support air tube 53 arranged under the suction plane 49 through fine blowing nozzles 54.
- This causes the label 3 to rest against the suction plate 16 and prevents the label from falling off when it is taken over by the suction plate 16.
- the supporting air pipe 53 is connected to a compressed air generator 31 via a two-way solenoid valve 55.
- the compressed air for the support air tube 53 is advantageously only switched on during the label peeling process. This will cause disturbing turbulence during the subsequent one Avoid blowing the label and also saves compressed air.
- the label 3 can still adhere slightly to the carrier strip 4 with its end in the direction of the peeling strip 8.
- the peeling edge 52 and the blowing force acting from the supporting air tube 53 cause the label to tilt around the peeling edge 52 to the suction plane 49, while the rear label edge detaches itself from the backing paper.
- a spring plate tappet 57 is arranged between the label pull-off strip 8 and the slide bevel 50 of the suction plate 16 and is fixedly connected to the piston rod 58 of a compressed air cylinder 59 which is fixed to the blister labeling housing 12 and acts on one side.
- the compressed air cylinder 59 is connected to the compressed air generator 31 via a solenoid valve 60.
- the solenoid valve 60 is briefly switched over.
- the spring plate tappet 57 performs a short pushing movement perpendicular to the label dispensing direction 24 on the label end and causes it to be safely detached from the carrier strip. Immediately afterwards, the spring plate tappet returns to its initial position.
- a self-contained blower unit 18 is accommodated in the interior of the blister labeling housing 12 and is firmly connected to the suction plate 16.
- the side of the blowing unit 18 facing the suction plate 16 is a blowing plate 19 with blowing nozzles 20 formed and via spacers 21 forming an intermediate space 22, arranged parallel to the suction plate 16.
- the position of the blowing nozzles 20 in the blowing plate 19 is congruent with the position of the suction openings 17 in the suction plate 16, the suction openings 17 being larger than the diameter of the blowing nozzles 20. This ensures that the one emerging from the individual blowing nozzles is conical spreading air flow through the suction openings 17 through unhindered.
- the label suction function is not deteriorated because the relatively large air delivery capacity of the fan 14 allows larger suction cross sections.
- a closure element in the form of a flat slide 23 is arranged between the suction plate 16 and the blow plate 19, the thickness of which corresponds to the height of the intermediate space 22.
- the flat slide 23 is displaceable in the label dispensing direction 24 and is guided laterally in a groove 25 in the suction plate 16.
- a fine-meshed grid 26 is additionally attached, which covers all the blow nozzles 20 and the mesh size of which is at most one third of the blow nozzle diameter.
- the grille 26 can also be arranged on the side of the blow plate 19 opposite the flat slide 23.
- the fine-meshed grille 26 has the effect that the air flow differences between the individual blowing nozzles 20 are compensated for, a uniform total air flow acts on the label 3 and this moves towards the package 9 without warping. The straightness of the label trajectory is thereby improved and the formation of folds of the label 3 upon "landing" on the package surface is avoided.
- the adjustment of the flat slide 23 in the label dispensing direction 24, according to the label length, is made possible by a handle 27 fastened to the flat slide 23 and projecting outwards through a slot in the suction plate 16.
- the position of the flat slide 23 in the label dispensing direction 24 is indicated by a pointer 28 attached to the flat slide 23 and visible from the outside. It is used for manual adjustment of the label length to be processed by means of a scale 29 attached to the housing 12.
- Sunk in the flat slide 23 and resiliently in contact with the suction plate 16 an additional spring element 30 is arranged which acts as a friction brake against the automatic adjustment of the flat slide and at the same time presses the flat slide 23 against the grille 26 and the blow plate 19 and thus seals all blow nozzles 20 located within the flat slide surface.
- the blowing unit 18 is connected to the compressed air network available to the user via a filter / regulator unit (not shown).
- the compressed air generator 31 can also be integrated in the blown labeling housing 12.
- a permanent positive pressure is present via a compressed air connection 32.
- a three-way solenoid valve 33 allows the compressed air to flow into a membrane chamber 34 and past a resilient pot diaphragm 35 into a pressure storage chamber 36 until the pressure set in the chambers 34 and 36 of the regulator unit has built up.
- the pot membrane 35 seals an injection bore 39.
- elastic lips 37 of the pot membrane 35 then rest against the membrane chamber wall 38 due to their inherent tension.
- the membrane chamber 34 When switching to the second position of the solenoid valve 33 as shown in FIG. 6, the membrane chamber 34 is vented via a quick vent hole 40.
- the pressure acting on the pot membrane 35 from the pressure storage chamber 36 presses it up very quickly while simultaneously sealing the quick-vent hole 40 and releasing the injection hole 39.
- the compressed air stored in the pressure storage chamber 36 thus suddenly discharges through the injection hole 39 into the distribution chamber 41 and a blast of compressed air through the blowing nozzles 20 onto the label 3 provided on the suction plate 16 and inflates it onto the package 9.
- the solenoid valve 33 can be switched back to its initial position according to FIGS. 3 and 4.
- the blown labeling device 2 can now again pick up the next label from the label dispensing device 1.
- the pressure storage chamber 36 with a valve body 61 and the distribution chamber 41 can advantageously be made in one piece.
- the complete blowing unit 18 is adjustable transversely to the label dispensing direction 24. It is guided in sliding guide grooves 42 which are attached in the blister labeling housing 12. As can be seen from FIG. 7, the adjustment is carried out by means of a threaded spindle 43 and a rotary knob 44 located outside the blow-labeling housing.
- the label dispensing device 1 is constructed in such a way that when processing different label widths, the left label edge 45 always remains in the same position, while the right label edge 46 to be able to vary the label width difference.
- the transverse adjustment of the blowing unit 18 is chosen in the case of a symmetrical label shape such that the central axis 47 of the blowing unit 18 is centered on the label width of the label 3 issued by the label dispensing device 1.
- the setting position of the label width is displayed on a scale 48 attached to the blister labeling housing 12.
- the manual adjustment of the flat slide 23 in the label dispensing direction 24 and the blowing unit 18 transversely to the label dispensing direction can also be motorized, e.g. via a stepper motor, not shown.
- the position data of the flat slide 23 and the blowing unit 18 are stored in an article data memory of the central control unit in accordance with the article-specific label size (length x width) to be used.
- the new position data e.g. called up by entering the new article number together with other article-specific data and the new position data for flat slide 23 and blow unit 18 are automatically set.
