  • the label In the US 6,155,322 is pressed by means of two opposing pressure body, which move against the transport direction of the applied label, the label both on the top and on the underside of the web-shaped edge in a throat.
  • the packaging is stopped by means of the pressure body and conveyed only after the pressing of the label to the packaging and the removal of the pressure body on.
  • the label is subsequently pressed by means arranged above and below the packaging brushes in the region of the top and bottom.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved labeling device for applying sealing labels to ridge-shaped edges of packages.
  • the seal label defines a label, which is a packaging shell and interconnecting a package bottom to, for example, hold together a folded package and / or require destroying the label prior to opening the package.
  • a Umfaltance is provided to fold around the edge attached to the edge of the packaging free end of the seal label around the edge.
  • the seal label can be folded by approximately 90 ° in the direction of the opposite side of the already applied seal label and the pressure device can perform the following folding around another approximately 90 ° and press the seal label to the web-shaped edge.
  • the Umfaltance preferably has a slope against which the free end of the seal label, which projects beyond the edge of the package, is moved while the package is transported in the transport direction parallel to the Umfaltance and the pressure device.
  • the Umfaltance is stationary mounted on the pressure device to be jointly adapted by means of a height-adjustable pressure device to different packaging sizes and thus to different layers of the edge in a simple manner.
  • the circular path of movement of the pressure plate is preferably produced by means of two jointly synchronously driven discs, on which the pressure plate is mounted by means of a holder.
  • a leading edge of the pressure plate during the entire circular movement remains approximately or exactly parallel to the transport direction or parallel to the lateral edge of the package.
  • the pressure plate is pivotable about an axis of rotation of the holder in order to compensate for inaccuracies in the packaging, in particular at the edge of the package.
  • the pressure plate is biased by means of compression springs to adjust during the Andruckvorgangs a defined pressure can.
  • a hold-down for the package is provided to hold together the two package halves, namely a package top and a package bottom, while the seal label is dispensed onto the side edge of the package with a free end projecting laterally beyond the edge and during the folding and the Pressing the seal label is done.
  • the pressure device is arranged laterally of the transport device in order to continuously press on sealing labels to packages which can be transported past the pressure device.
  • the packages can follow each other directly and have transport speeds of up to 1 m / s.
  • the pressure plate is inclined relative to the transport plane of the transport device by an angle in order to prevent a collision of the front edge of the pressure plate with the lateral edge of the packaging.
  • the leading edge approaches the lower or upper side of the web-shaped edge more and more, the more surface of the free end of the seal label is folded and pressed.
  • An inclination of 5 ° to 10 ° is particularly suitable.
  • An inventive method for operating a labeling device comprising a transport unit for transporting packaging, a label dispenser for applying a seal label on a web-shaped edge of the package and a pressure device is characterized in that the sealing label on the lateral, aligned in the transport direction, web-shaped Edge is applied, then a free end of the label is folded over and is pressed by means of a pressure plate of the pressure device to the edge.
  • a packing stream with or without a spacing between the individual packages can be continuously attached without a change in the transport speed with a sealing label around a web-shaped edge.
  • the pressure plate is preferably moved circularly to allow rapid movements of the pressure plate.
  • the pressure plate is moved transversely to the transport direction to carry out the pressing operation.
  • the sealing label is dispensed from below onto the lower edge surface of the packaging and the pressure device performs the folding and pressing of the sealing label to the upper edge surface. It is also conceivable that the packaging is transported standing on the transport device and the attachment of the seal label takes place on the upper side and the pressure movement of the pressure plate is approximately vertical.
  • Fig. 1 shows a labeling device 1 according to the invention with a transport device 2 to transport packages 3 along a transport direction T to a label dispenser 4 and a subsequently arranged in the transport direction T pressing device 5 by the labeling device 1.
  • a controller 6 is provided, which receives information from sensors 7, which are mounted along the transport device 2, to detect the position of the package 3.
  • the label dispenser 4 comprises a dispensing unit 8 for dispensing individual seal labels 9 (see Fig. 2 ) in the transport direction T.
  • Fig. 2 shows an enlarged view of the pressure device 5.
  • the view shows a package 3 as a folded package, which includes a non-illustrated hinge on the back and a circumferential ridge-shaped edge 10.
  • the edge 10 is defined by an upper, here horizontally oriented edge surface 28 of the upper half of the package and a lower, also horizontally oriented edge surface 29 of the lower packaging half.
  • a hold-down 11 is arranged above the transport device 2 in order to keep the package 3 closed during the application of a sealing label 9 to the upper edge surface 28.
  • the pressure device 5 is adjustable in height relative to the transport device 2 by means of guides 12 and a manual adjusting device 13 in order to be able to adapt the pressure device 5 to the position of the edge 10 of the packaging 3 during the transport of a package 3.
  • a Umfaltor 14 with a slope 15 is attached to the pressure device 5, to fold along the transport of a package 3, a free end 9 'of the seal label 9 down around the edge 10 by 90 ° before the package 3 and the sealing label 9 the Pressing device 5 achieved.
  • Fig. 3 shows the pressure device 5 in a view obliquely from below.
  • the Umfaltance 14 is attached to the front of the pressure device 5, which faces the transport device 2 attached.
  • the top of the applied to the upper edge surface 28 of the package 3 label 9 is in contact with the underside of the Umfaltance 14 during transport in the transport direction T along the pressure device 5 in order to also as a counterhold during the pressing of the free end 9 'of the seal label 9 to act the lower edge surface 29 of the rim 10.
  • the pressure device 5 has on its underside a cover 16 and has on its front side an elongated opening 17 which is aligned in the transport direction T. From the opening 17, a pressure plate 18 is partially moved out in the direction of the package 3.
  • the pressure device 5 or the pressure plate 18 is partially inclined relative to the transport plane of the transport device 2 and thus with respect to the underside of the package 3 by an angle ß of 5 ° to 10 °, in the direction away from the transport device 2 direction obliquely downwards sloping.
  • Fig. 4 the pressure device 5 is shown without the cover 16.
  • the pressure plate 18 is pivotally mounted on a holder 21 about a horizontal axis of rotation 22 and resiliently biased with three compression springs 23 against a boundary 24.
  • a front edge 20 of the pressure plate 18 can thus be deflected downward or from the package 3 repellent against the compression springs 23.
  • the holder 21 is connected to two discs 19 in order to perform a rotary movement can.
  • the two discs are synchronously driven by a motor 25 via a not-shown gear.
  • Fig. 5 to 8 shown in a view from below on the pressure device 5 shown without the cover 16 and the movement of the package 3 four movement positions.
  • the label 9 is donated to the upper edge surface 28 of the edge 10 of the package 3 in this view and the pressure plate 18 is in a retracted position.
  • the packaging 3 is by means of in Fig. 5 to 8 hidden transport device 2 moves from left to right in the transport direction T.
  • the free end 9 'of the seal label 9 is folded on the slope 15 by 90 ° out of the plane.
  • the pressure plate 18 is connected to the two synchronously rotating discs 19 via the holder 21 such that the pressure plate 18 performs a circular movement in a slightly inclined to the horizontal plane, the leading edge 20 is always aligned approximately parallel to the transport direction T of the package 3 to effect a line-shaped pressing of the label 9.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 rotate the two discs 19 and thus the pressure plate 18 in a clockwise direction.
  • the further rotational movement of the pressure plate 18 and the transport movement of the package 3 causes the leading edge 20 to approach the package 3 and to fold over and press the free end 9 'of the label 9 to the lower edge surface 29 of the rim 10 in this view; as in Fig. 7 shown.
  • the movement component of the pressure plate 18 in the transport direction T is synchronous with the transport speed of the package 3.
  • the pressure plate 18 moves so far forward until its front edge 20 has swept over the edge 10 of the package 3 in its entire width or at least almost in its entire width.
  • the sealing label 9 is folded over the edge 10 and now adheres to the upper 28 and lower edge surface 28 and secures the two packaging halves against accidental opening, ie a destroyed seal label 9 indicates an already open packaging 3 at.
  • controller 6 controls by means of the information of the sensors 7 and the speed of the transport device 2, the movement of the pressure plate 18th
  • Fig. 8 the package 3 is further transported and the pressure plate 18 is rotated back into the retracted position during the further rotational movement.
