Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de pose d'étiquettes d'identification (1), comprenant: un mécanisme de distribution (10) destiné à distribuer, en séquence, des étiquettes RFID, qui sont des étiquettes d'identification (2), en direction d'une position de distribution (20E); un carrousel de transfert d'étiquettes pour amener une pluralité d'unités de fixation/retenue (21Q), situées sur la surface périphérique extérieure autour d'une ligne d'axe de rotation (20X) du carrousel à intervalles réguliers, à fixer et retenir des étiquettes RFID (2) en séquence, et pour faire tourner et transférer les étiquettes RFID (2) fixées et retenues en direction d'une position finale de transfert (20F); ainsi qu'un groupe de moyens d'écriture (30) comportant une pluralité de moyens d'écriture (3) qui tournent toujours entièrement avec le carrousel de transfert d'étiquettes (20), et qui sont en correspondance avec la pluralité d'unités de fixation/retenue (21Q). Chacun des moyens d'écriture (3) écrit les informations requises pour les étiquettes RFID (2) fixées et retenues par l'intermédiaire d'une communication sans contact pendant que les unités de fixation/retenue (21Q) sont entraînées en rotation et transférées de la position de distribution (20E) à la position finale de transfert (20F). Ainsi, le dispositif de pose d'étiquettes RFID destiné à la pose, sur un objet prédéterminé, d'étiquettes d'identification comprenant des unités d'émission/réception et des puces CI pour l'émission/réception d'informations par communication sans contact, permet d'augmenter le nombre d'opérations de pose par unité de temps.
