Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a labeling device.

As a label sticking device that peels a label from a mount and affixes it to an object to be weighed, etc., the label is peeled off from the mount by a label peeling plate, and the peeled label is conveyed to a label holding section by a belt conveyor. The label conveyed by the belt conveyor is temporarily held in the label holding section,
Next, a device can be considered in which the held label is affixed to the product by flying it with air or the like.

However, the adhesive side of the label adheres too much to the belt surface of the belt conveyor, making it difficult to peel off the label from the belt surface, and there is a possibility that the label cannot be reliably conveyed to the holding section.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a device that prevents labels from adhering too much to the belt surface.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

Figure 1 a, l) shows a sectional view of the main part of the labeling device,
Reference numeral 1 denotes a label issuing machine, and 2 denotes labels pasted on a mount 3 at predetermined intervals, which have printing fields for weight, unit price, price, and each item.

4 and 5 are a type wheel and a type hammer, respectively, which constitute a line printer;
Numerical values such as weight, unit price, price, etc. are printed on the machine.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a peeling plate for peeling off the label 2 from the mount 3. The mount 3 passes from a supply reel (not shown) between the type wheel 4 and the type hammer 5, and then passes through the peeling plate 6 to the take-up reel ( (not shown) intermittently at a predetermined pitch in the direction of arrow A, and the label 2 peeled off from the mount 3 is sent out in the direction of the arrow.

Reference numeral 7 denotes a pasting box, which has a fan therein and a gate (not shown) that communicates a label holding port 8 serving as a label holding portion with an intake port or an exhaust port of the fan.

9 is a guide plate fixed to the bottom surface of the box 7; 10 is a belt conveyor provided close to the bottom surface of the guide plate 9; both ends of the belt conveyor are rotatably supported near the label holding port 8 at one end of the guide plate 9; A small-diameter roller 11, a large-diameter roller 12 whose both ends are rotatably supported at the other end of the guide plate 9, and a large-diameter roller 12 that is spanned between the large-diameter roller 12 and the small-diameter roller 11 at a predetermined distance from each other. 4 elastic belts 1
3 and a drive device for the large diameter roller 12.

Reference numeral 14 denotes a pull-out roller for transporting the label issued from the label issuing machine 1 to the bell 1 into the gap between the conveyor 10 and the guide plate 9, and the two rollers 1 are arranged at a predetermined distance.
4a, 14b, and a motor for rotating the roller 14a or 14b.

15 is a guide plate disposed between the peeling plate 6 and the pull-out roller 14; 16 is a felt piece that comes into contact with the conveying surface on the return path of the belt 13; I have let you.

Next, the operation will be explained.

Here, the belt 13 is driven to run at high speed.

The label 2 carried from the label guide device 1 onto the belt conveyor 10 by the pull-out roller 14 is placed between the guide plate 9 whose adhesive-applied surface is in contact with the conveyance surface of the belt 13 and the belt 1.
3 and transported in the direction of the arrow.

Until the label 2 is fed into the label holding port 8, the gate is switched so that the label holding port 8 communicates with the intake port of the fan. The label 2 that has entered hits the stopper 17 and is sucked and held by the holding opening 8.

Note that the belt 13 is fed at high speed, that the roller 11 near the holding port 8 has a small diameter, and that the belt 13 is fed at high speed.
3 is coated with silicone oil by the felt piece 16, the label 2 is easily peeled off from the belt 13 and inserted into the holding port 8, even though the back side of the label 2 is coated with adhesive. It will be brought in.

Thereafter, the gate is switched at a predetermined timing to communicate the holding port 8 with the exhaust port of the fan, and the held label 2 is flown in the direction of arrow C and affixed to the product.

Furthermore, since the contact surface between the belt surface and the back surface of the label is small, the application of silicone oil does not significantly reduce the adhesion ability of the label 13 to the product, but may cause the label to adhere too much to the belt surface 13. Since this can be completely prevented, the label can be reliably conveyed to the holding port 8.

Furthermore, by applying silicone oil to the belt surface 13, the adhesive may remain on the belt surface and the guide plate 9
It is possible to prevent the adhesive from transferring to the surface facing the belt 13, and the reliability of conveying the label to the holding port 8 by the belt conveyor 10 is significantly improved.

Fig. 2 a, l) shows another embodiment; in the embodiment of Fig. 1 a, l), the felt pieces 6 were flush along the arrangement direction of the belt 13; As shown in FIG. b, by providing grooves 16a at the positions of the felt pieces 16 corresponding to the four belts 13, meandering motion of the belt 13 running at high speed can be prevented.

Figures 3a and l) show another embodiment, in which the felt piece 16 was fixed in contact with the belt 13 surface in the above embodiment, but the non-adhesive liquid coated piece was fixed at both ends. The same is true if the roller is rotatably supported.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 4a and 4b, grooves may be provided at the positions of the roller-shaped application pieces 16' corresponding to the four belts 13.

In the above example, silicone oil was used as the non-adhesive liquid and felt was used as the coating piece. Depending on the type of non-adhesive liquid, felt, sponge, brush, etc. are used.

As explained above, according to the label sticking device of the present invention, a label holding section is provided at an appropriate distance from the label peeling plate of the label printing machine, and a belt conveyor is provided between the label holding section and the label peeling plate. Since a device is provided to apply a non-adhesive liquid to the conveying surface of the belt conveyor, it is possible to avoid a situation in which labels adhere too much to the belt surface.
This allows the labels to be reliably carried into the label holding bay.
