Definitions
- the present invention relates to a labelling machine for labelling articles, in particular containers, bottles or similar, to which the following description refers purely by way of example.
- the present invention relates to a labelling machine for labelling containers conveyed along a predetermined path on a liquid or powdered product bottling system.
- EP-B-1412279 proposes a self-supporting labelling station - i.e. with its own supporting structure resting on the floor - fixed to the periphery of the carousel. More specifically, it proposes fixing the position of the labelling station in relation to the carousel simply by means of a number of connectors at the periphery of the carousel.
- Number 1 in Figures 1-4 indicates as a whole a labelling machine for applying known labels (not shown) to respective articles 2, in particular bottles (as in the example shown), containers or similar.
- Machine 1 substantially comprises a carousel 3 for receiving unlabelled articles 2 from respective known input conveying means (not shown); feeding them along a path P substantially in the form of an arc of a circle with a vertical axis A; and transferring the labelled articles to respective known output conveying means (not shown).
- the input and output conveying means are typically defined by respective starwheels.
- Carousel 3 is coaxial with axis A and comprises a fixed supporting frame 4 resting on the floor on a number of legs 5; and a rotary assembly 6 mounted on frame 4 to rotate about axis A, and having a number of peripheral operating units 7 for receiving respective unlabelled articles 2.
- Frame 4 substantially comprises a peripheral portion 8 substantially in the form of an annular plate and supported on legs 5; and a central portion 9 radially inwards of peripheral portion 8, connected to peripheral portion 8 by a number of substantially radial arms 10, and supporting a rotary shaft 11, of axis A, for rotating rotary assembly 6.
- rotary assembly 6 substantially comprises a bottom supporting structure 12 and top supporting structure 13, which are bounded peripherally by respective cylindrical walls 14, 15 of axis A, are fixed to shaft 11 in positions spaced apart along axis A, and define operating units 7.
- bottom supporting structure 12 has a number of peripheral seats 16 equally spaced about axis A to receive the bottom portions of respective articles 2, and which thus define, over frame 4, a horizontal transportation surface T for transporting articles 2 ( Figures 3 and 4 ).
- top supporting structure 13 has a number of peripheral retainers 17 equally spaced about axis A, and which cooperate with the top portions of respective articles 2.
- Each seat 16 cooperates with a corresponding retainer 17 to keep article 2 in a stable position as it is conveyed along path P by rotary assembly 6; and each seat 16 and corresponding retainer 17 thus define an operating unit 7.
- top and bottom supporting structures 13, 12 project radially outwards of frame 4.
- Machine 1 also comprises a labelling station 18 located at the periphery of carousel 3 to feed carousel 3 with labels to apply to respective articles 2.
- Labelling station 18 is connected to carousel 3 by releasable connecting means 20.
- labelling station 18 comprises a supporting frame 21; and known label feed means 22 (only shown schematically) fitted to frame 21.
- frame 21 comprises a roughly prismatic box body 23 bounded at the top by a horizontal surface 24 fitted with feed means 22.
- the front end portion 25 of box body 23 of frame 21 is fitted to frame 4 of carousel 3 by connecting means 20, and its rear end portion 26 rests on the floor on two legs 27, i.e. frame 21 is not self-supporting.
- Connecting means 20 are advantageously located inwards of carousel 3, at a predetermined distance of other than zero from the perimeter R ( Figure 2 ) of carousel 3.
- connecting means 20 are located inwards of frame 4 of carousel 3, below transportation surface T of articles 2, and preferably radially inwards of operating units 7 with respect to axis A.
- connecting means 20 are located on peripheral portion 8 of frame 4, at a predetermined distance, of other than zero, inwards of the perimeter of peripheral portion 8.
- Connecting means 20 comprise a first interface 28 fixed to and projecting from the underside of peripheral portion 8 of frame 4 of carousel 3, and located radially inwards of the perimeter of frame 4 with respect to axis A; and a second interface 30 fitted to front end portion 25 of box body 23 of labelling station 18 and connectable releasably to interface 28.
- interface 28 comprises a hitch 31, which projects downwards from peripheral portion 8 of frame 4, is located a predetermined radial distance of other than zero from the perimeter of peripheral portion 8, and has, close to its opposite lateral portions, respective recesses 32, 33 housing respective bushings 34, 35 with axes parallel to axis A.
- interface 30 comprises two identical pins 36, 37 projecting frontwards towards carousel 3 from front end portion 25 of box body 23 of labelling station 18, and designed to engage respective bushings 34, 35.
- pins 36, 37 have respective substantially hemispherical bottom end portions 38.
- Bushing 34 defines a seat 40 for receiving pin 36 and bounded by a substantially hemispherical concave surface complementary with bottom end portion 38 of pin 36, i.e. seat 40 defines a closed area for receiving pin 36.
- Bushing 35 is similar to bushing 34, but has a seat 41 for receiving pin 37, and which is open both on the side facing bushing 34 and on the opposite side, to allow engagement by pin 37 with a certain amount of horizontal tolerance perpendicular to axis A.
- both pins 36, 37 are fitted idly with respective rings 42 for guiding insertion of pins 36, 37 inside respective recesses 32,33 on hitch 31.
- labelling station 18 is supported at the rear on legs 27, and rests, at the front, on hitch 31 of interface 28, by pins 36, 37 cooperating with respective bushings 34, 35.
- connection between labelling station 18 and carousel 3 is safely protected against residue or glass shards - when working with glass bottles obviously subject to breakage - which are highly unlikely to become lodged between interfaces 28 and 30.
- labelling station 18 to be positioned easily and to be assembled and disassembled easily to and from carousel 3, i.e. better protection of the connection between carousel 3 and labelling station 18 is achieved without impairing easy connection and disconnection of the two parts.
