Perforations 14 are provided between the labels 12 so that a label strip 10a is formed.
Are formed.

In the long label continuum 10, an adhesive layer 18 is formed on the back surface of a long label base material 16 forming the continuous label body 10, and a release agent layer is formed on the front surface side of the label base material 16. 20 is formed, and further on the surface side of the label substrate 16 and between the label substrate 16 and the release agent layer 20.
The printing layer 22 is formed on a part of the surface of the. Print layer 2
The labels 2 are formed so as to form the labels 12 by separating the boundaries of the labels 12 and intermittently at regular intervals between the labels 12. A thermosensitive coloring layer 24 is formed on the surface of the label base material 16 on the release agent layer 20 side.

The label continuum 10 is, as shown in FIG.
Before being cut and used, the label base material 16 is wound in a roll shape so that the release agent layer 20 side and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 face each other and are temporarily attached. In addition, the perforations 14 are formed over the entire area in the width direction of the label continuum 10, and are formed over the front surface of the release agent layer 20 and the back surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18.

The label continuum 10 is wound up in a roll shape, and an appropriate unwinding part 3 of the label continuum constituting the cutting and supplying device 30 as a means for supplying the label continuum shown in FIG.
The roll-shaped label continuum 10 loaded in the unwinding unit 32 and unwound into the unwinding unit 32 is rewound, and the roller 36 constituting the first transfer unit of the cutting and feeding apparatus 30 is provided via the rollers 34a and 34b. Sent to the roller 3
The label continuum 10 whose direction has been changed in 6 is transported by the first feed roller 38 and the second feed roller 40 which constitute the first transport means.

Each of the rollers 34a, 34b and 36 is cylindrical and has a smooth surface.
The surface of the roller 34b in contact with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 of No. 0 is siliconized, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 1 of the label continuum 10 is
8 is formed so as to be lightly adhered.

As shown in FIG. 5, the first feeding roller 38 and the second feeding roller 40 are different from the above-mentioned roller 36 in that the support portions 38a, 40a having an acute tip and a circular cross section are provided.
Are continuously formed, and the tips of the supporting portions 38a and 40a are formed relatively thin.
Due to the adhesive strength of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 of 0, strong adhesion does not occur even when the first feed roller 38 and the second feed roller 40 are contacted.

Above the second feed roller 40, the label continuum 10 is lightly adhered to the surface of the support portion 40a which is the label contact surface of the second feed roller 40, so that the label continuity is relatively elastic or flexible. Rich pressing rollers 42 are formed so as to face each other, and the surface of the label continuum 10 is lightly pressed by the pressing roller 42 against the surface of the support portion 40a of the second feed roller 40. The pressing roller 42 and the roller 36 are fixed by an arm to a support frame fixed to a base 44, and can rotate upward together with the support frame about an axis.

A roller 44 for feeding the label continuum 10 further forward of the label continuum without hanging down is formed in the vicinity of the second feed roller 40 and constitutes the first feed roller 38 constituting the first transfer means. A cutter 46, which is a cutting device that cuts the label continuum 10 sent by the second feed roller 40 into each label 12, is formed in the vicinity of the second feed roller 40 and downstream.

The cutter 46 is fed by the operation of the first feed roller 38 and the second feed roller 40 which constitute the first transfer means of the label continuum by being operated by a cylinder or the like. Label continuum 1
Cut off 0.

As shown in FIG. 7, the cutter 46 includes a thin plate-shaped cutter blade 48 having a straight blade formed at its tip, and is detachably fixed to a cutter holding base 50 to which the cutter blade 48 is attached. ing. The cutter holding base 50 is formed so as to hold both sides of the cutter blade 48 by pressing it with a holding piece 50b on the front surface of the holding portion 50a and fixing it with a fixing tool 50c such as a bolt. The upper end surface of the moving holding portion 50d of the holding table 50 is 0.5 to 1 from the cutting edge of the cutter blade 48.
mm upward, and is formed so as to protect the cutter blade 48 and avoid injury due to the cutter blade 48. The holding piece 50b is fixed to the holding portion 50a so that the upper end surface of the holding piece 50b is slightly lowered by the same height as the cutting edge of the cutter blade 48. The moving holding portion 50d is made of a material such as polyethylene which is relatively hard to adhere to the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18, and the holding piece 50b prevents the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 from adhering by subjecting the periphery of iron to a fluororesin treatment. ing.
Further, in the holding table 50, a hole 50e is formed in the moving holding portion 50d, and a shaft 52 is fitted and inserted in the hole 50e.
Is fixed to the movement holding portion 50d at its upper end so as to be vertically movable, and is fixed to the base 50f at its lower end with a pin. A spring 54 is wound around the shaft 52, and the upper end of the spring 54 has the upper end of the shaft 5 of the movement holding unit 50d.
2 is in contact with the vicinity of the fixed portion, and the lower end of the spring 54 has a holding portion 50a.
Is in contact with the vicinity of the fixed portion of the shaft 52 of the
Is urged to push up.

A bearing 56 for pressing the label continuum 10 passing above the cutter blade 46 against the cutter blade 48 is provided.
The bearing 56 is rotatably provided so as to face the cutter blade 48, and linearly moves while rotating along the cutter blade 48 to press and cut the label continuum 10. The bearing 56 is rotatably fixed to a shaft 58 fixed in a direction orthogonal to the cutter blade 48, and the shaft 58 is vertically movably fixed to a shaft 62 formed in the vertical direction and surrounds the shaft 62. A spring 60 is wound around the spring 60, and the lower end of the spring 60 is in contact with the vicinity of the fixed portion of the shaft 62 of the shaft 58,
The upper end of the spring 60 contacts the vicinity of the fixed portion of the shaft 62 of the bearing support 64 to which the upper end of the shaft 62 is fixed. The spring 60 is normally urged in the downward direction of the shaft 58, that is, in the direction of pressing the bearing 56 against the cutter blade 46. The bearing support 64 supports a shaft 58 that rotatably fixes the bearing 56 so as to be vertically movable via a shaft 62 and a spring 60, and as shown in FIG. 6, an actuator that linearly moves the bearing 56. In the illustrated example, it is connected to the rod 68a of the cylinder 68.

Further, when the cylinder 68 is operated to linearly move the bearing support 64, the bearing 56 can be moved to the guide rail 66 above the bearing support 64 in order to move the bearing 56 accurately without rolling. It is fixed to. The guide rail 66 is formed parallel to the cutter blade 46 so that the cutter blade 46 and the bearing 56 are in uniform contact with each other. The guide rail 66 is fixed to the guide rail base 66a, and the cylinder 68 is also fixed to the guard rail base 66a with a bracket 68b. The guide rail base 66a is fixed to the base 44 with an L-shaped channel 70.

The cutter 46 is provided between the labels 12 so as to form the label strip 10a having an appropriate length in response to an electric signal from the sensor 72 such as a photo switch formed further downstream from the cutter 46. The perforations 14 at the boundary are formed so as to be continuously cut.

In the illustrated example, the belt 74 constituting the second transfer means is formed so that its rear end is located relatively close to the cutter 46. The belt 74 is rotated by a motor 76 (shown in FIG. 5) from the vicinity of the cutter 46 toward the attachment position so that the label strips 10a are moved downward at regular intervals. An endless ring-shaped belt 74 is stretched between the driving roller 78 and the platen roller 60 and the feeding roller 62 at the front end, and a pressing roller 84 is formed above the driving roller 78. 10 is lightly pressed against the surface of the belt 74.

The label continuous body 10 lightly sandwiched by the pressing roller 84 as described above has the rear side (upstream) of the label continuous body 10 sandwiched by the second feed roller 40 and the pressing roller 42. Since the label continuum 10 pressed by both the pressing rollers 42 and 64 is fed in a tense state, it is easily cut by the cutter 46.

The timing for cutting by the cutter 46 is the catch mark formed on the label continuum 10 and the cut mark formed on the label continuum 10 in the sensor 72 provided downstream of the drive roller 78 and sandwiching the label continuum 10 on the belt 74. By detecting the notch or perforation 14, etc.,
The label continuum 10 is configured to be cut by the cutter 46 after detecting that the label continuum 10 has been fed by an appropriate distance from the cutter 46, that is, by an appropriate length that constitutes the label strip 10a.

The belt 74 is a plastic endless annular belt whose surface is siliconized, and the adhesive layer 18 of the label continuum 10 is processed by the silicon processing.
The label strip 10a is lightly adhered by the adhesive force of and is sent forward (downstream). When the thermal head 66 develops heat-sensitive color on the belt 74, when the thermal head 66 rubs the surface of the label strip 10a, the label strip 10 does not shift on the surface of the belt 74.
It is adhered to the surface of the belt 70 by the adhesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 of a and forms a smooth surface so that precise printing can be performed, but the surface treatment is performed so as to be peeled off relatively easily when pasted. Has been applied.

In this illustrated example, the platen roller 8
0 has a diameter substantially the same as that of the drive roller 78, but the feeding roller 82 located further forward is constituted by a thin roller, and is configured to incline from the platen roller 80 to the feeding roller 82. There is. The platen roller 80 cooperates with the thermal head 86 to form a printing device that thermally develops the label strip 10a. Further, in response to an electric signal from the sensor 72, the thermal head 86 causes the color to be developed by heat-sensitive coloring.
Depending on the relationship between the length of the label 72 and the distance of the sensor 72 or the signal of the cutter 46, for example, when the label strip 10a cannot be printed at the tip thereof, the label strip 10a is cut by the cutter 46 and then the label strip 10a is moved backward by the second transfer means. Color may be developed by the heat generating portion of the head 86.

Further, below the delivery roller 82, in order to control the transfer direction of the label strip 10a, a plurality of nozzles forming an air blowing portion are formed in the body portion at appropriate intervals. The air nozzles 88 are formed so as to blow air over the substantially entire area of the belt 74 in the width direction at appropriate intervals. Therefore, the tip of the label strip 10a, which is slightly adhered to the surface of the belt 74 by the action of the adhesive layer 18 and sent by the air blown from the air nozzle 88, faces slightly above the traveling direction of the belt 74. The attitude is controlled as follows. Next, the label strip 10a fed forward from the position of the feeding roller 82 is projected toward the suction sticking device 90 formed in front thereof.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 8, the suction sticking device 90 has a suction plate 92 fixed to the lower part thereof so as to be able to move forward and backward, and the label strip 10a is provided on the lower surface of the suction plate 92 on the delivery roller 82 side. It is formed so as to be extended further and reach. The suction plate 92 is fixed to the lower part of the suction box 94, and the suction hole 96 is provided in the body of the suction plate 92.
There are multiple penetrations.

The suction box 94 is made of a substance through which gas is difficult to pass, and when the air inside the suction box 94 is exhausted from the exhaust hole 96 by an adsorption blower (not shown), the suction force of the suction hole 96 can be enhanced. It is formed so that it can. That is, the suction hole 96 is a hole to which a negative pressure is applied in the vicinity thereof and which sucks and holds the label strip 10a. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 9, the suction plate 92 is formed so as to slide in the front-rear direction by the operation of the cylinder 98 fixed in the suction box 94 at the front thereof. The suction plate 92 has a step 92 a formed at its side end, and the inverted U-shaped slide guide 10 formed at the bottom of the suction box 94.
4 is slidably fixed to the other side end of the guide piece 106.
Is formed and is slidably fixed to the linear guide 108. That is, the rod 100 of the cylinder 98
Is fixed to the connecting member 102 formed upward at the upper part of the suction plate 92 at the front end of the suction plate 92, and the rod 100 is moved back and forth by the operation of the cylinder 98, so that the suction plate 92 sucks and holds the label strip 10a and appropriately. It is formed so as to slide on the sticking site.

Further, in the suction box 94, the label strip 1
A pressing device 110, which is a pressing means for pressing 0a toward the adherend A, is formed. The pressing device 110 includes a pressing rod 112 made of a cylindrical metal rod, and is vertically installed inside the suction box 94. Pressing device 11
On the outer peripheral surface of the pressing rod 112 forming 0, an elastic body 114 made up of a coiled spring is provided, and the elastic body 114 is
One end of the pressing rod 112 is fixed to the upper end of the pressing rod 112.
A hollow cylindrical label pressing portion 116 made of a flexible material such as soft plastic is formed at the lower end of 2. An pushing device 118 is formed along the pushing rod 112 to push the pushing rod 112 of the pushing device 110 toward the adherend A in the vertical direction.

In the pushing device 118, an actuator 120 composed of a cylinder such as hydraulic pressure or air is hung vertically, and a pushing rod 112 of a pushing device 110 is slid on the tip of a rod 122 which is an operating body of the actuator 120. A holding portion 124, which is a holding means including a bearing having a bearing or the like, which holds the bearing freely, is formed, and a bearing portion 124a of the holding portion 124 holds the middle portion of the pressing rod 112. The lower end of the elastic body 114 is fixed to the upper end of the holding portion 124.

At the lower part of the pushing device 118, a stopper 126 as a stopping means is formed at a position close to the lowermost end of the stroke of the actuator 120 so as to suddenly stop the advancing operation of the rod 122 of the actuator 120. The stopper 126 is an L-shaped fixing member 12
A stopper piece 130 made of a sponge or the like as a buffer is attached to the upper surface of 8 with a double-sided tape, and a fixing material 128 is attached so that the stopper piece 130 is located on the surface in contact with the tip of the rod 122 of the extrusion device 118. The suction box 94 is fixed at an appropriate position. On the peripheral surface of the pressing rod 112, at a position close to the uppermost end of the stroke of the actuator 120 of the pushing device 118, and between the lower end of the elastic body 114 and the upper end of the label pressing portion 116, the holding portion 124 of the pushing device 118 is provided. An annular buffer body 132 made of an elastic material such as a sponge is provided around the portion contacting the lower surface of the. That is, a cushioning material 132a such as sponge is attached to the upper surface of the annular mounting piece 132b, and the cushioning body 132 is attached by fixing the annular mounting piece 132b to the peripheral surface of the pressing rod 112. Therefore, even if the pressing rod 112 is pulled back upward by the action of the elastic body 114, the buffer body 13
2 absorbs the impact force and can withstand many years of use. The pressing rod 112 is slidably fixed to a slide bearing of a bearing portion 124a formed at the tip of the rod 122 of the actuator 120.

In this embodiment, the drive roller 78 and the first feed roller 38 are the pulley 134 formed on the drive shaft of the motor 96, the pulley 136 formed on the shaft of the drive roller 78, and the first roller. The driving belt 140, which is wound around the pulley 138 formed on the shaft of the feed roller 38, transmits the rotational force of the motor 96 to rotate (see FIG. 5).

Further, the pressing roller 42 and the roller 36 are composed of an arm 144 and an arm 14 suspended from a pivot 142.
6 is rotatably fixed to each of the elastic bodies 14 such as springs.
8, 150 is pulled toward an appropriate position, for example, the pressing roller 42 is directed toward the second feed roller 40.
In addition, the arm 144 and the arm 146 are connected to the pivot 142.
Together with the supporting frame 152 to which is fixed, it can be pulled up and is formed so as to facilitate the work when the cutting and feeding device 30 has a paper jam or the like.

Next, the operating condition of this embodiment will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 1, the label continuum 10 is
The rolled material of the label continuous body 10 is attached to the unwinding portion 32, the label continuous body 10 is brought to the roller 36 via the rollers 34a and 34b, and is fed from the first feed roller 38 to the second feed roller 40. Then, the label continuum 10 that has passed between the pressing roller 42 and the second feeding roller 40.
Passes under the cutter 46 via the roller 44. Then, it reaches the upper surface of the belt 94, is sandwiched by the driving roller 98 and the pressing roller 84, and reaches the lower portion of the sensor 92. Then, after the sensor 92 detects an appropriate feed distance of the label continuum 10, it is cut by the cutter 46, and the label strip 10 is cut.
a is formed.

The label strip 10a, which is lightly adhered to the surface of the belt 94, reaches the thermal head 86 as the belt 94 rotates, and the label strip 10a sandwiched between the platen roller 80 and the label strip 10a has a thermal head. The color is thermally developed by 86, and appropriate information is printed. Then, the label strip 10a printed by the thermal head 86 further descends a little while adhering to the surface of the belt 94 and reaches the feeding roller 82.

The label strip 10a reaching the roller 82 is
Since the belt 94 is suddenly folded back in the opposite direction by the roller 82, the label strip 10a moves forward as it is due to the rigidity of the label strip 10a. At this time, the air blown from the air nozzle 88 corrects the label strip 10a so that the direction of the label strip 10a is upward, and reaches the suction surface of the suction plate 92.
Then, it is held on the suction surface of the suction plate 92 by the negative pressure of the suction holes 96 of the suction plate 92. When the label strip 10a is held on the suction surface, the suction plate 92 is moved forward by the operation of the cylinder 98, and the label strip 10a is located above the adherend A. Then, the label strip 10a is suction-held on the suction surface of the lower surface of the suction plate 92 by the negative pressure generated by the action of the suction blower, and then the extrusion device 118 operates,
The rod 12 of the actuator 120 of the extrusion device 118
2 rapidly descends, so that the lower surface of the holding portion 124 rapidly descends in parallel with the descending movement of the rod 122 via the buffer body 132. Then, the lowermost surface of the holding portion 124 abuts on the stopper 126 provided near the lowermost end of the stroke of the rod 122 of the actuator 120, and the descending movement of the rod 122 is rapidly stopped.

On the other hand, the extrusion device 1 holding the pressing rod 112.
The pressing rod 112 that has descended in parallel with the descending movement of the holding portion 124 of the 18 further descends as it is against the elastic body 114 due to the inertial force of the pressing rod 112, and is suction-held on the lower surface of the suction plate 92. Label strip 10a
Then, the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 of the label strip 10a is brought into contact with the upper surface of the adherend A transferred by a transfer device (not shown), and the label strip 10a is adhered to the adherend A. . At this time, since the label pressing portion 116 made of a flexible material is formed under the pressing rod 112, the label pressing portion 116 absorbs the impact due to the downward movement of the pressing rod 112, and the downward movement of the pressing rod 112 causes the impact. The adherend A is not pressed and crushed.

In the pressing device 110, in this embodiment, nine pressing rods 112 are formed side by side in the front-rear direction as shown in FIG.
Is configured to descend. Therefore, even if the surface of the adherend A has an uneven surface or a step, the pressing rod 112 of each pressing device 110 is
Accurately reaches the surface of the adherend A, and the label strip 1
0a can be attached to the surface of the adherend A. Therefore, in the above embodiment, even when the size of the adherend A changes, the label strip 10a is accurately pressed against the surface of the adherend A without changing the pressing device 110. The label strip 10a can be properly attached to the adherend A, and the plurality of pressing rods 11 can be attached.
Since the two are configured to operate independently of each other, even if the surface of the adherend A has irregularities or a step surface is formed, it corresponds to the height of the surface of the adherend A, Each of the pressing rods 112 of the independent pressing device 104 reaches the surface of the adherend A, so that the label strip 10a can be accurately and beautifully adhered to the adherend A.

When a delayed tack type adhesive is selected as the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the label continuum 10, it is not necessary to perform a mold release treatment on the first transfer means, but the second transfer means is used. In the transfer means, it is necessary to form an activation device that heats and activates the delayed tack type adhesive during transfer to activate the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer of the label to impart tackiness.

The present invention can be variously modified without being limited to the above embodiment. Instead of the illustrated example,
The cutting means may be changed as follows. FIG. 10 is a front view solution diagram showing another cutting and sticking device for a continuous label body according to the present invention. FIG. 11 is a plan view solution diagram of a main part of the example shown in FIG. 10. FIG. 12 is a side view solution diagram of the example shown in FIG. 10. The cutter 246 includes a receiving blade 248 and a pressing blade 25.
0, the receiving blade 248 is fixed to the base 252,
The pressing blade 20 is fixed so that it can move up and down, and the receiving blade 248
It is formed so that the label continuum 10 is pushed completely toward. The pressing blade 250 is fixed to a shaft 254 by a fixing piece 256 so as to be rotatable about the shaft 254 as a pivot, and the pressing piece 250 is constantly urged by a torsion spring 258 in the direction of the receiving blade 248. Is formed in. The shaft 254 is fixed to the guide body 260 at the edge opposite to the receiving blade 248, and the guide body 260 is slidably fixed to the guide bar 262.
2 is vertically attached to the base 252, and further,
The guide body 260 is connected to the rod 264a of the cylinder 264, and the cylinder 264 is fixed to the base 252. Therefore, when the cylinder 264 is operated, the guide body 260 slides along the guide bar 262, the pressing blade 250 presses the label continuum 10 toward the receiving blade 248, and gradually cuts. In the illustrated example of FIG. 10, the pressing blade 250 is formed so that the blade edge is not parallel to the receiving blade 248 but is obliquely intersected, and the height thereof is gradually lowered. Moreover, since the pressing blade 250 is biased by the torsion spring 258 in the direction in which the blade tip is joined to the receiving blade 248, the label continuum 10 can be pushed down.

In addition, for example, as shown in FIG.
The label contact surface 16 of the belt 160 as the first transfer means.
0a may be provided with innumerable scattered convex portions 162 so that the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 18 of the label continuum 10 is fed while being lightly adhered, and as shown in FIG.
