EDWIN FIDELL, OF .lERS EY CITY, NEW JERSEY.
LABEL AND STAMP APPLYING MACHINE.
Patented Nov. 12, 1907.
To all whom it may concern: I
Be it known that I, EDWIN FIDELL, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Jersey City, in the county of Hudson and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Label and Stamp Applying Machines, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to improvements in machines for applying labels and revenue stamps to packages, preferably small rectangular packets of tobacco, and it consists in a simplified means for securing the stamp to the label or wrapper. It is particularly adapted to the class of machines disclosed in a patent granted to me on October 16, 1906, for improvements in wrapping machines, and bearing No. 833, 15] and to which patent referencetmay be had for a full understanding of the construction and operation of the several coacting parts in the complete machine, comprchendinga feeding mechanism, for automatically feeding previously prepared packets, a series of continually advancing packet-holders, each provided with a pair of grippers adapted to grasp I a packet from the feeding mechanism, a pair of folding .ings, in which Figure 1 is a sectional elevation of the machine; Fig. 2, an enlarged plan View, and Figs. 3 and 4, enlarged detail views.
Similar characters of reference pertain to like parts throughout the several views.
The essential parts of the machine are mounted upon the hollow standard A, to the base of which is secured an oval shaped support B having bearing in which is mounted the horizontal driving shaft B, the latter being provided with an additional outer bearing b i and a suitable driving pulley b Rotatably mounted upon the standard A is a sleeve B designed to be rotated from the driving shaft B through the medium of the gear wheels 13, b, b and b theintermediate wheels b and b being secured to a short vertical stub-shaft, journalcd in the bearing b. Upon the sleeve 13 and rotating therewith, is fixedly secured a bowl shaped carrier B formed with vannular flanges b and b. I
A series of radially disposed horizontal carrier-arms C are fixedly mounted upon the upper flange I)" of the bowl shaped carrier, and to each of the arms are secured a corresponding series of certain portions of the packet-operating devices, including a packet holder fixed upon the outer end of the arm, a vertically movable stamp-head C, a pair of label-folding jaws D and D and a pair of grippers E, the latter shown in Fig. 3.
The stamp-head C, formed on the outer end of the bar C is pivotally mounted on a pair of parallel swinging arms c", which in turn is journaled in the bracket 1:, fixed upon the radial arm C. The parallel arms 0 operate to raise and lower the stamp-head through the medium of the pinions c fixed upon the journal-ends, the pinions in turn intermcshing with the sector-shaped gear C, i the latter in turn being pivotally carried by one of the extending members of the bracket 0 and having an integral arm on which is mounted a roller 0 adapted to engage a cam f, formed on the stationary disk F, fixedly secured to the standard A; the cam being suitably arranged upon the disk to give at the proper time the necessary vertical movement of the stamp-head as it constantly advances in a circular path about the standard A.
The stamp-head C, shown in enlarged detail sectional view in Fig. 3, is provided with a plurality of fixed pins 0", having projecting ends extending through perforations in a stripper-plate C and adapted to engage and normally hold a stamp, The stripperplate is movably dependent from the stamp-head by the stem 0 one end of which being arranged to pass through a chambered perforation in the head is secured to the stripper-plate and the opposite end of the stem is formed with a bifurcation in which is journaled a roller 0 adapted to be contacted by a presser-plate p A compression spring disposed within the chambered perforation of the stamp-head and encircling the stem, normally retains the stripper-plate in contact with the head, in which position the stamp-engaging ends of the pins extend below the plate. 4
Mounted upon the stamp-head C is an upwardly projecting air-connection 0 having two branch pipes c" leading therefrom and provided with terminals projecting slightly below the lower surface of the head and in alinement with enlarged perforations extending through the stripper-plate. Secured to the air-connection 4:" is a vertically and laterally yielding air inlet, composed of a resilient inner tube exteriorly reinforced by a retractile spring 0 the inner tube being fixedly secured atits lower end to the air connection and at its upper end provided with a flaring metallic mouth-piece c. I
Supported from the floor and stayed by the rail G, is a stationary upright leg P, on the upper end of which is secured an overhanging stud p, pivotally carrying a double ended lever P to the inner end of which is fixed the resser-plate p and to the outer end the pivotally connected and downwardly-extending actuating-rod p the latter having a lower forked end p,
engaging the shaft B; A roller p rotatably mounted upon a pin secured to the forked end of the actuatingrod, contacts a cam p ,fixed on the shaft B which, by the rotation of said shaft elevates the outer end of lever P and depresses the inner end carrying the presserplate 12 the latter contacting the roller for operating the resser-plate, as previously referred to. A tor-- tending through said arm and pivotally mounted therein. A perforation in the head p loosely receives the lower end of a vertical postp the upper end of which has afiixe'd thereto an inwardly extending horizontal tubular arm 12, provided with a downwardly extending elbow terminating in a tapering end; the arm communicating through the post with a flexible tube 10",.
leading from a convenient source of air supply, indicated by the blower p Surrounding the post is a torsional spring p having its opposite ends engaging the head p and the arm p to normally retain the latter in engagement with a vertical stop p fixed to the resser-plate p Encircling the stem p of the head p is a torsional spring 1), the opposite ends of which are fixed to the lever P and the end of the'stem p", to normally depress the tubular arm p, carried by the head p thedownward movement of the tubular arm being limited by a stop-rod p secured at one end to the head p while its opposite end contacts the Presser-- plate 10 a N indicates apaste-box carried upon a'swinging support'n, and mounted upon the paste-box is a guideroller N and a past-e roller 113 (the latter shown in dotted lines) the construction" andioperation'of this pasting device being more fully shown and described in the former application previously referred to.
In the operation of the present invention each of,
the, continuously advancing packet-holders Q carrying a label-enfolded packet, and the accompanying stamp-head C with its pasted stamp having advanced to the vicinity of the stamp-affixing device, the cam p on the shaft B depresses the presser-platc 0 removing the stamp from the pins 0 and afiixing said stamp upon the packet. As the presser-plate is forced downward to affix thestamp, the tubular arm p, carrying a current of air, engages the flaring mouth-piece c of air connection 0 secured to the stamp head C permitting the air to flow through the branch pipes-c to cause the stamp to be [more effectuallyJremoved from the head and at the same time forcing the free overhanging stamp-ends downward against the adjacent packet-ends, in which position the cam operated grippers E are appropriately timed to engage and afix said pasted stamp-ends to the packet-ends. The lever P and the tubular and p are normally held in fixed relation with each other and are jointly adapted to oscillate about the overhanging stud -p As the inner ends of .the lever and tubular arm are depressed, the latter engages the'mouth-piece c thereby checking its downward movement, while the continued movement of the former tends to separate the presserplate 10 from the stop-rod p bringing the tension of spring 1) to bear upon the temporary air connection formed through the mouth-piece to make a uniformly yielding contact therewith. This contact continues somewhat during the advancement of the stamp head, in order to insure the complete depression oi'the stampends. This advancement of the stamp-head during the air connection causes the tubular arm p to swing within the head p forcing said arm away from the vertical stop p and increasing the tension on spring 1). As the grippers E engage the stamp-ends, the inner end of the lever P with its attached pressureplate p is raised, which motion engages the stop-rod p to elevate and disengage the tubular arm p from the mouth-piece; said arm being then retracted to its normal position against the vertical stop p by the recoil of spring p v Having thus described my invention what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is: i
