"IMPROVED CONTAINER FEED FOR LABELING MACHINE"
ABSTRACT OF DISCLOSURE
Cylindrical containers are fed by a star wheel or the like such that their sides come into tangential contact with a label-bearing vacuum drum having a resilient outer portion. A
resilient roll-on pad is disposed opposite the vacuum drum and at a distance therefrom such that containers fed into tangential contact with the vacuum drum will be rotated in a counterclockwise direction as they contact glue-containing labels held on the drum.
The roll-on pad preferably has an upwardly slanting portion at its container-receiving end, and a length of contacting surface of about twice the diameter of the containers to be labeled. Ac-cordingly, labels can be cut and fed onto the vacuum drum, after-which glue is applied to the exposed surface thereof, and the containers fed between the vacuum drum and the roll-on pad to securely bond each severed label to a separate container in rapid succession.

Description
1C~87137 This invention relates to apparatus for the high speed application of labels to cylindrical containers, and is an improvement upon my U.S. Patents Nos. 3,765,991;
3,834,963; and 4,108,710.
In the aforesaid patents there are described machines for applying labels to containers having general features as follows: A container feed such as a turret having pockets for holding the containers is employed and serves to carry each container, in turn, past a glue application station which applies a line of glue to the container and then passes each container, in turn, tangent-ially to a vacuum drum which bears labels, each having its trailing end provided with a line of glue. The containers are gripped during this period to avoid rotation about their individual axes, whereby as each container is presented to the tangent point of contact with the drum, the leading end of each label is applied to the container at the glue line ; previously applied to the container. The container is then transported away from the vacuum drum and is caused to rotate about its axis, which results in wrapping the label around the container.

1 The vacuum arum is ordinarily equipped with lands on 21 whic:h the trailing edge of each label is applied, the label being 3 helcl on the drum by vacuum. A glue applicator applies glue to the 41 trailing end of the label overlying the land. Immediately to 51 the rear of and adjacent to each land is a trough or sroove which serves the function of holding any e~cess glue. The 71 labels themselves are supplied as a continuous label stock and 81 are cut by a shearing action of a rotary blade and a stationary 91 blade. The stationary blade, however, is oscillated into an outer contact with the rotating blade so as not to impede 11 access of the label material to the cutting instrumentalities.
13 The particular mechanisms just described, although 141 preferably employed in accordance with the present invention as shown in the drawing, need not be exactly as described but 16 may vary, inasmuch as the invention pertains to certain --17 improvements which will be described shortly.
19 While machinery of this type has served well in the 20¦ high-speed application of labels to a wide variety of containers, 21¦ difficulties at higher speeds have at times been encountered 22 in accomplishing an adequate wrapping of a label around each 231 container. Also, such machinery has usually required clamping

19 While machinery of this type has served well in the 20¦ high-speed application of labels to a wide variety of containers, 21¦ difficulties at higher speeds have at times been encountered 22 in accomplishing an adequate wrapping of a label around each 231 container. Also, such machinery has usually required clamping
2~1 or gripping of the containers during contact with the vacuum drum, a requirement which for some applications has been unduly 27 Iburdensome.
