The label L adsorbed and held on the vacuum grit 35 can be adsorbed stably.

  Next, operation | movement of the label sticking apparatus 10 which concerns on this embodiment is demonstrated, referring also to FIG.

  In the initial setting operation, as shown in FIG. 4, the peel plate 15 is retreated to the retreat position B away from the sticking means 17 by rotating the outer end of the operation lever 30 upward. Then, the label base material 11 wound in a roll shape is put in the accommodating means 12, and the lead end thereof is led out to the guide portion 37 of the collecting means 19 through the drive roller 40 and the pinch roller 41, The operation lever 30 is rotated clockwise to move the peel plate 15 to the label peeling position A closest to the sticking means 17. Thereby, the label base material 11 is hung in a state where a predetermined tension is applied to the label base material 11, and the initial setting operation is completed.

  Next, when a power switch (not shown) is turned on, the drive roller 40 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 1 and feeds and feeds the label base material 11. The label base material 11 is peeled by a direction change due to a sudden turn at the tip position of the peel plate 15 as a result of being given a constant tension by being sandwiched between the upper surface of the peel plate 15 and the pressing member 52. The labels L are peeled from the material S one by one. At this time, the presence or absence of the label L immediately before the application is detected by the label detector 43. Then, the peeled label L is sucked and held on the label holding surface 34 of the sticking means 17 while receiving the air pressure from the blowing means 55, and the sticking means 17 is lowered by the cylinder device 18 at a preset timing. The label L is affixed to the body 16.

  After the label L has been peeled off, the release material S passes through the guide portion 37 and is gradually wound along the inner shape of the recovery bottom portion 38 and the winding guide 39, but the recovery amount increases.

  In this way, when the label L is applied, the remaining amount of the label base material 11 in the storage unit 12 gradually decreases, and when the supply of the release material S to the recovery unit 19 is completed, the release material S is taken out from the recovery unit 19. Then, a new label base 11 may be set in the storage means 12.

  Therefore, according to such an embodiment, there is an effect that the setting of the label base material 11 and the recovery of the recovered release material S can be performed very easily and quickly.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various design changes can be made. For example, according to the correlation with the adherend 16, the moving direction of the sticking means 17 can be changed to an inclined direction or a lateral direction.
