2. Description of the Related Art As shown in FIG. 5 (a), a conventional label continuous body 30 has labels temporarily arranged on a band-shaped backing sheet 31 at regular intervals. When this label is a wide label L1, the backing strip 31 is peeled off by turning the pin 3 2 for turning the can perform sticking work one by one to be attached material knob that label peeling end with the fingertip or the like. However, as shown in FIG. 5B, when the label piece temporarily attached to the strip-shaped backing sheet 31 is the narrow label L2, the operator tries to pick up the label by pinching the label peeling portion with tweezers or the like. Is difficult to pick up, and it takes a lot of time to remove it, so work efficiency is poor.

Therefore, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 5-65156, particularly in the case of the narrow label L2 shown in FIG. 5 (b), the label peeled from the band-shaped mount is once composed of an endless belt. There has been proposed a label supply device that guides a peeling label to a conveyance means. That is, the width of the conveyor belt is set to be narrower than the label width of the peelable label, and both ends of the peelable label placed on the conveyer belt are in a state of protruding from the belt width, so that the peelable label can be easily picked.

Further, a label base material constituted so that the strip-shaped release paper is perforated in the longitudinal direction and the perforations are cut to form a gripping margin at the end of the label so that the label can be easily peeled off is practical. It is disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. Sho 58-149764.

[0005]

However, in the label supply device disclosed in the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-65156, the label peeled from the strip mount by the peeling means is placed on the conveyor belt, and the peeling is further performed. Labels are provided by the conveyor belt to convey to the target position, but it is necessary to set the label supply device by the conveyor belt,
For this reason, the size of the device becomes larger and the cost becomes higher accordingly.
There is a problem that the label drops while being conveyed on the conveyor belt. In order to solve these problems, the present invention provides a label peeling device that is small in size and can be reliably transported to a target position without dropping a label piece during transportation, and that can easily pick up a label piece. With the goal.
