Definitions

  • the known labels are made from pliable sheet material capable of being rolled out or developed in a plane. Such material may be wrapped conformingly about a cylindrical or conical surface without generating internal stresses in the material, but not about a surface which is arcuate in three planes perpendicular to each other. While the label may be pleated and stretched locally by a skilled operator to make it conform to the non-developable bottle surface, machinery capable of duplicating the manually produced effects is not available. Yet, manual labeling of bottles is not economically feasible in most cases.
  • FIG. 2 shows a bottle carrying a label applied according to the invention in an elevational view.
  • the printed label surface was coated with a commercially available adhesive for polyethylene (an aqueous dispersion of polyvinylisobutyl ether and acrylic acid esters), and the coated surface was superimposed on the conforming, clean glass surface of the bottle 7 without stressing the label in the direction of its length and width. Little pressure in the direction of label thickness was needed to expel air from the interface of the label 9 and the bottle 7 and did not cause intemal stresses in the label.
  • a commercially available adhesive for polyethylene an aqueous dispersion of polyvinylisobutyl ether and acrylic acid esters
  • the imprint 10 on the label is visible through clear polyethylene film, but protected by the latter against abrasion and other effects of the environment.
  • the adhesive bond was not subjected to destructive stresses at elevated temperature which would tend to release internal stresses in the plastic film, since the film had been formed well above its softening temperature.
  • Good labels of the invention have been prepared from synthetic resin compositions made opaque either by imprints covering their entire exposed faces, or containing pigments and other fillers in a manner conventional in itself, and providing a good substrate for indicia additionally applied in printing ink because of the filler present.
  • plastic materials more costly than polyethylene may be employed singly, in laminar structures, or in mixtures such as the fibrous web referred to above.
  • flexible vinyl film, cast acrylic sheet material, and the several cellulose ester materials commonly used as thermoplastics are useful in this method.
  • Polystyrene and copolymers thereof (ABS) and polyester films may find applications in the labeling procedure outlined above and require modifications of operating conditions which will readily suggest themselves to those skilled in the art.
  • non-developable surface being arcuate in three planes perpendicular to each other.
