Description

Container positioning label applicator

The present invention relates to a container positioning label attaching machine, and more particularly, to a container positioning label attaching machine in which a label is accurately attached to one side of a bottle container used to contain a liquid to enhance an advertisement effect.

In general, beverages, water, cosmetics, drugs, etc. are stored in a container, and a label (OPP film, sticker) printed with information such as producer and product name is attached to the surface of the container to emphasize the visual effect of the product and provide the product to consumers. It serves to provide information about the product, and these labels are attached to the container surface using a labeler.

At this time, the labeling machine used refers to a machine configured to attach a label with the product name or description necessary to use the product on the packaging containing the bottle container or other product used by injecting food and beverage drugs.

These labeling machines are classified into an in-line type and a rotary type according to a method of a conveying device for transferring a container.

The in-line type labeling machine is an attachment method that requires natural rotation by a guide by contacting the outer surface of the container, and the rotary type labeling machine further includes a chuck structure to attach the label to a multi-angle container that cannot be rotated naturally. It is a method of forcibly rotating the multi-angle container.

That is, in the rotary type labeling machine, the container to which the label is to be attached is revolved by the rotary table and at the same time, it is provided to be rotated by the container holder. However, the in-line type labeling machine is configured so that the container is in contact with the labeling drum and rotated by the labeling drum, and the label is attached.Therefore, it has the same configuration as a rotary table and container holder that rotates and rotates the container like a rotary type labeling machine. Not provided separately.

In addition, the in-line type labeling machine attaches a label to a container having a circular cross section so that it can rotate in contact with the labeling drum.

This inline type labeling machine is slow because labeling is sequentially performed, but the price is low, whereas the rotary type labeling machine has the advantage of attaching labels to multiple containers by the operation of the chuck structure. Since this is expensive, there is a disadvantage of low productivity for the price.

Accordingly, a look at the prior art patent literature for the labeling machine developed and used so far is as follows.
