Definitions

  • the invention relates to a labeling device for applying adhesive labels according to the preamble of patent claim 1 and a corresponding method.
  • a device according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from the patent JP 2006-056 584 A known.
  • the DE 600 22 641 T2 and the GB 2 189 467 A also disclose labeling devices and methods for applying adhesive labels.
  • Labeling devices for attaching, in particular, elongated, narrow labels such as, for example, sealing labels, are known from the prior art.
  • labeling devices provided on a carrier tape labels are donated by means of a dispensing edge directly to the object to be labeled.
  • the labeling device above a product conveyor belt on which the bottles are transported, is arranged.
  • the dispensing edge is arranged with respect to the bottles such that, during operation of the labeling device, the label dispensed at the dispensing edge on the end face of the bottle neck sticks and is thus taken by this.
  • the label is separated at the dispensing edge of the carrier tape so that the adhesive side of the label faces the end face of the bottle.
  • the dispensing edge is directed in the transport direction of the product conveyor belt.
  • the object underlying the present invention is now to provide a labeling device in which a space-saving design and ergonomic operation are achieved. Another object is that the labeling should be as simple as possible.
  • the entanglement of the conveyor belt can be adjusted, so that a simple and reproducible setting of the label position is possible.
  • Another advantage is that virtually any position can be achieved by interleaving and / or deflecting the conveyor belt in a simple manner.
  • the conveyor belt conveys the respectively donated label into a position in which the part of the label projecting from the conveyor belt is attached to the object to be labeled. Since no consuming trained Andrückmechanismus is required in the labeling according to the invention, reduces the space required for the labeling device space.
  • a further advantage of the invention is that it is no longer necessary to arrange the labeling device above the article to be labeled. Consequently, the operation of the labeling device is facilitated.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the labels are provided with their adhesive side on the conveyor belt. This ensures that the labels can be conveyed in a simple manner and without the use of other components from the donated position to a second position in which they are attached to the object to be labeled.
  • a further advantageous embodiment of the invention is that the label is provided with its elongated side transverse to the transport direction of the carrier tape on this.
  • the number of provided on the carrier tape labels per supply roll is significantly higher than a supply roll, wherein the elongated side of the label is aligned parallel to the direction of movement of the carrier tape.
  • a width of the carrier tape corresponds approximately to the length of the elongated side of the label.
  • Another advantage of the above-mentioned arrangement of the labels on the carrier tape is that a dispensing speed of the labels does not have to correspond to the transport speed of the articles to be labeled, but may be much slower. Thus, the risk that the carrier tape breaks, in particular when the dispensing edge rotates, is reduced.
  • a labeling device 1 according to Fig. 1 comprises a housing 14, 15 that is composed of a box-shaped housing 14 and a housing section 15 protruding from the box-shaped housing 14.
  • a supply roll 10 of a carrier tape 11 occupied by labels 100 is rotatably mounted on the box-shaped housing 14.
  • the projecting housing section 15 extends transversely to a product conveyor belt 31 by means of which the articles 30 to be labeled are transported.
  • a plurality of pulleys 12 At the side facing the supply roll 13 side of the box-shaped housing 14 a plurality of pulleys 12, a drive mechanism for driving the carrier tape 11 and a collecting roller 13 for winding the empty carrier tape 11 after donating the labels 100 are provided.
  • the labels 100 are formed in this embodiment as elongated, narrow labels with an adhesive and a non-adhesive side. They are provided with the adhesive side on the carrier tape 11, so that a secure conveyance of the labels 100 is ensured by the carrier tape 11. Furthermore, the labels 100 are provided with their elongated side transversely to the transport direction of the carrier tape 11 on this. There are also imaginable for the labels and embodiments that are not elongated.
  • the labeling device 1 has an in FIG. 3 shown dispensing edge 24 for dispensing the labels 100 of the carrier tape 11 on a conveyor belt 20. Furthermore, the labeling device 1 has a roller 25 located in the vicinity of the donor edge 24, which is connected to the housing 14, 15 via an arm. The dispensing edge 24 opposite conveyor belt 20 is in this area, like out FIG. 2 can be seen, arranged in a same plane as the carrier tape 11. Consequently, the labels 100 donated by the dispensing edge 24 can be easily picked up by the conveyor belt 20. The distance between the conveyor belt 20 and the dispensing edge 24 is selected such that the donated labels 100 can each be picked up by the conveyor belt 20 and taken along.
  • the width of the conveyor belt 20 transversely to the transport direction is smaller than the width of the carrier tape 11.
  • the part of the label 100 connected to the conveyor belt 20 is smaller than that of the part of the label 100 protruding from the conveyor belt 20.
  • the connection of the label 100 to the conveyor belt 20 takes place in that the adhesive side of the labels 100 is in contact with the conveyor belt 20 is brought.
  • the roller 25 serves to assist the transfer of the donated from the dispensing edge 24 label 100 to the conveyor belt 20 by pressing the donated label 100 in the direction of the conveyor belt 20.
  • Embodiments are also conceivable in which the roller 25 is driven by a motor and as a result of the rotation exerts a force on the donated label in the direction of the conveyor belt 20.
  • the conveyor belt 20 may for example be designed as a belt and runs around an in FIG. 3 illustrated roller 27 and a in FIG. 2 shown drive roller 26.
  • the drive roller 26 is provided with a in the FIGS. 1 to 3 not shown drive unit coupled to and serves to drive the conveyor belt 20.
  • the roller 27 is aligned with the drive roller 26 so that when viewed in the transport direction of the conveyor belt 20 between an axis of the roller 27 and an axis of the drive roller 26 forms an angle. Such an orientation of the roller 27 to the drive roller 26 causes that during rotation of the conveyor belt 20 is entangled this.
  • the drive roller 26 is connected via an arm, not shown, with the housing 14, 15.
  • the drive roller 26 protrudes from the housing 14, 15 in the same direction as the pulleys 12, the roller 15 and the collecting roller 13, with the respective axes being parallel to each other.
  • the exact positioning of the drive roller 26 on the housing 14, 15 is selected so that the label 100 receiving part of the conveyor belt 20 in the same plane as that at the dispensing edge 24 located carrier tape 11.
  • the roller 27 is connected via an arm 40 with connected to the protruding housing portion 15.
  • a pressing mechanism 23 for pressing a label member projecting from the article to be labeled 30 onto an end face of the article 30 is provided.
  • the pressing mechanism 23 has a transverse to an axis of the arm 40th pivotable pressure roller on.
  • the pressure roller is provided on the arm so as to be brought into contact with the object to be labeled 30 carried on the product conveying belt 31, respectively.
  • a deflector 41 is disposed on the arm 40 between the end of the arm 48 on which the pressing mechanism 23 is disposed and the roller 26.
  • the deflecting element 41 serves to deflect the part of the labels 100 projecting from the conveyor belt 20 in the direction of the article 30 to be labeled, which is conveyed by the product conveyor belt 31.
  • the deflecting element 41 is designed such that it does not hinder the movement of the articles 30 to be labeled conveyed by the product conveyor belt 31.
  • FIG. 2 shows a front view and FIG. 3 a plan view of a labeling device.
  • the dispensing edge 24 is an edge of a non-illustrated element directed transversely to the transport direction of the carrier tape 11.
  • the element may be formed as a strip-shaped plate and is fastened to the box-shaped housing 14.
  • An arranged at the dispensing edge 24 with the box-shaped housing 14 connected pressing member 16 serves to support the transfer of the donated label 100 to the conveyor belt 20th
  • the freed at the dispensing edge 24 of the carrier tape 11 labels 100 are received by the conveyor belt 20.
  • the labels are dispensed in such a way that the adhesive side of the labels 100 is connected to the conveyor belt 20.
  • the roller 25 in the direction of the conveyor belt 20 facing force is exerted, so that the respective label 100 adheres to the conveyor belt 20. Since the width of the conveyor belt 20 is smaller than the width of the carrier tape 11, only a part of the label 100 is received by the conveyor belt 20. Due to the above-mentioned arrangement of the drive roller 27 and the roller 26, the conveyor belt 20 and thus also the labels 100 are entangled in the rotation of the drive roller 27 and the roller 26.
  • the conveyor belt 20 goes through the following items in detail. Starting from the position in which the conveyor belt 20 receives the donated labels 100 (hereinafter referred to as the first position), the tape runs to a position in which the part of the labels projecting from the conveyor belt 20 is deflected by the deflecting element 41.
  • the deflection causes the part of the label 100 projecting from the conveyor belt 20 to be deflected in the direction of the article 30 to be labeled. Consequently, the adhesive side of the respective label 100 points in the direction of the article to be labeled. In this position of the conveyor belt 20 this is not yet crossed by 90 °. Subsequently, the conveyor belt 20 continues in a second position. In this second position, the conveyor belt 20 is entangled in the first position by 90 ° compared to the position of the conveyor belt 20. The second position is selected so that the part of the label 100 projecting from the conveyor belt 20 can be brought into contact with the object 30 to be labeled. In this case, the part of the label 100 projecting from the conveyor belt 20 is perpendicular to the transport direction of the product conveyor belt 31.
  • the article to be labeled 30 is arranged on a product conveyor belt 31, which moves transversely to the transport direction of the conveyor belt.
  • the article to be labeled 31 in this case is a bottle with a bottleneck.
  • a peripheral surface of the conveyed bottle comes in a certain position of the product conveyor belt 31 with the part of the label 100 protruding from the conveyor belt 20 into contact. Since an adhesive force between the part of the label 100 connected to the conveyor belt 20 is smaller than an adhesive force between the part of the label 100 protruding from the conveyor belt 20 and the bottle, the part of the label 100 connected to the conveyor belt 20 will come off when the bottle is conveyed in a direction away from the conveyor belt 20 direction.
  • the label 100 is mounted on the bottle so that the part of the label 100 protruding from the conveyor belt 20 adheres to a peripheral surface of the bottle neck or bottle body.
  • the portion of the label 100 originally connected to the conveyor belt 20 now protrudes from the bottle. This projecting portion of the bottle is pressed by means of the pressing mechanism 23 to the end face of the bottle.
  • the bottle passes through in the moving away from the conveyor belt 20 movement of the product conveyor belt 31st a position in which the bottle-protruding part of the label 100 is pressed by the pressing mechanism 23 against the end face of the bottle.
  • the pressing mechanism is formed in this case as a pressure roller which is pivotable transversely to the axis of the arm 40.
  • the pressure roller is provided between the product conveyor belt 31 and the arm 40. The distance between the arm and the pressure roller is selected so that the pressure roller is brought into contact with the bottle, but does not prevent the bottle on the further transport through the product conveyor belt 31.
