MEANS FOR HOLDING AND DETACHING RIBBON-STRIP LABELS- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb. 12, 1907.
Application filed December 21, 1906. Serial No. 848,851. e
county of Worcester and State of Massachu-' setts, have invented a new and useful Means for Holding and Detaching Ribbon-Strip Labels, of which the following is a specification, reference being made therein to the accompanying drawings. a
Our present invention relates to mechanism for holding and delivering that class of labels, tickets, or the like which are prepared in connected rolls or ribbon-strip form, with the respective labels partially severed or divided by weakened lines across the fabric, the prime object of our invention being to provide a simple, efficient, and more convenient. means whereby the res )ective labels or tickets will become severaily detached by simply taking them from the delivery-mouthpiece, and the end of the strip held presented 1n proper position to be easily seized for takin the successive label, as hereinafter more fully explained.
Another object is to afford a simple and convenient means of combining removable label-holding boxes with a supporting-case and for retaining the same against displacement by pull upon the labels when the latter are drawn out of the delivery-guides of the respective boxes.
We attain these objects by the mechanism illustrated in the drawings and explained in the following detailed description, the partic ular subject-matter claimed being definitely expressed in the summary.
In the drawings, Figure 1 represents a front elevation View of mechanisms embodying the features of our invention. Fig. 2 represents a side View of one of the label-boxes and its delivcringuide. Fig. 3 represents a vertical section at ine W W on Figs. 1 and 5. Fig. 4 is a vertical section of the mouthpiece atline X X on Figs. 1 and 5. Fig. '5 is a top plan view; and Fig. 6 shows, on somewhat smaller scale, a roll of ribbon-strip labels.
Referring to the drawings, A indicates a label-holding box of suitable dimensions for containing the supply of labels, which, according to the various instances of use, may be of any desired size, the labels or tickets being prepared in well-known manner in a ened lines 0 across the fabric, dividing off the individual labels 3- at positions where severance is desired. The roll is shown supported upon a journal or axis-core b,- one end of which is carried by a releasable bearingstandard d,"hinged at the base and having a confining-catch e, which permits read release and readjustment to facilitate rec ar 4 ing the box with label-strips. The labe strip may be supported in any suitable manner for the delivery of its end outward through the guide or mouthpiece F, from which the labels 3 are taken asurequired for use.
A yielding resistance brake or springpresser I is arranged within the. box to act against the label strip or roll for preventing its movement except when the labels are pulled from the end of the strip.
The peculiar construction and mode of op- F constitutes a prime feature of our inven-- tion. Said mouthpiece comprises an under lip, plate, or member 5, projecting from the front of the box and aiiording a guide-surface thatstarts approximately laterally horizontal at the inner point 2 and is thence transversely arched or made with increasingly-inclined opposite side portions that merge into an elevated rounded curve at or near the central line W, and said member is also longitudinally arched or directed upward along its median line, while its edge lines 4 area roximately horizontal or in plane With't e ase of the mouthpiece. The front edge of the under member 5 terminates .on a line 6, which may-bestraight or slightly curved, is approximately transverse to the longitudinal axis of the guide, and is positioned at or near its greatest central elevation. (See dotted line, Fig. 5.) The extreme front edge of the plate 5 may, if desired, be slightly turned up at the central part or made with a comparatively sharp angle, so as to give the greatest concentration of pressure on the severance line of the labels.
The upper member of the mouthpiece or guide comprises a plate 7, corresglondin t0 the under plate along the longitu 'nal e ges 4 and overlying the plate or guide member 5 at such distance therefrom as will afiord an intervening space 9 sufficient for the read passage of the label-strip therethrou h wit 75 eration of theJdelivery-guide or mouthpiece 1 with the plate'5 transversely and somewhat convergent thereto in longitudinal direction, so as to form a tunnel entrance or passage for the strip, as shown. The ide-plates are curved or arched both longitudinallyv and transversely, so that the guiding mouth iece presents approximately either a conoi al, a semi-ovate, ellipsoidal, or spherical con-tour through which the fiat label stri -is passed.
The member 7 is provided wit a cut-away recess or thumb-space to tacilitate seizing or gripping the end of the label-strip'between the thumb and finger. Saidrecess has its inner edge located some distance rearward from the edge 6' of the under guide member 5,. as best shown in Figs. 3 and 5, while thecorners or side portions 12 of the upper member 7 are made to extend some distance forward beyond the terminal edge 6 of the lower member 5; and are suitably rounded and curved or inclined downward, so as to de press the edges of the label from the normal plane of its delivery direction as it leaves the edge of the guide or mouthpiece when pulled outward, as indicated by the dotted linesv on Fig. 3 when taking a label from the deliverymouth. In thisconstruction the central elevation or protuberance of the guide gives a longer distance at the central line W than at the edges 4.
The end of the ribbon or label strip is threaded outward through the guide or mouthpiece F. The individual labels are simply icked ofi from the end of the strip as re uire for use. by seizing the end of the labe as presented at the recess 10v and pulling it forward in. the direction indicated by the arrowon Fig. 3. As the label-strip-is drawn forward in the mouthpiece the compound curvature of the'guide- plates 5 and 7 tends to curve the label both longitudinally and transversely, exerting a strain at the central part'thereof and causin a primary rupture of the fabric as the weaiened division-line 0 passes over the apex of the plate 5, such rupture commencing atthe center of the strip,
as indicated at 13 on Fig. 6, and running to ward either edge thereof. Then by the action of the downwardly-overhanging portions 12 of the top member 7 the rupture on the- Weakened line is extended right and left, so that complete detachment of the label or ticket is effected and all executed simply by an outward pull on the label. The severed end of the label-strip is held as left in the mouth of the guide at position to-be conveniently seized for taking the next label in order.
The label-box A is preferably provided withv a bin ed cover 8 at the rear of the guideplate 7 to facilitate inspection of the interior. One side of the label-box is made open for convenience of inserting the roll or ribbonstrip B, and suitable means is provided for retaining the roll-supp orts in proper relation.

A label detaching and delivering guide having its opposite guiding members transversely and longitudinally arched, rendering the median lineof the guideway longer than the edge lines of the guideway, whereby excess of strain is brought upon the central portion of the label-strip to cause primary rupture of the weakened portions at the center of the strip.
3. A label delivering and detaching means, comprising a guideway inclosed between a pair of frictional guide-plates arched or dulally inclined to bend the label both transversely and longitudinally as it passesthrough, one of said guide-plates having a recess or cut-away space to facilitate seizing the. end of the. label-strip, the other guide ICC I LC
