In addition, such a device is particularly useful for labeling of cylindrical bottles with a small circumference in the middle part "or a small waist circumference is important, where the problem of automatic labeling in particular is difficult.

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the drawing, in the

In the figures there are insignificant ropes, such as the support table, supports etc. not shown. 1 with a roll of continuous labels is referred to, the Still'ottenstrip 1A, which makes up the roll, on one of its two Side cuts or notches 1B on the! Separation line each Has labels. The device comprises the following ropes:

A button 5 _{8 which} detects the passage of the notches on the label strip 1A;
-an arrangement {6 to 12) with a brake 6 with which the label strip can be stopped and a structure

660670726.11.70

(7 to 12) ₅ advance the label strips one label at a time according to the notch scanning or detection

-a knife 13 ₉ which cuts the labels according to the notch scanning,

-a transducer (16 "to 20), the surface of which is provided with lifting off ^{by an adhesive distributor (17, 17 r),}

-a device for picking up and further transporting the gummed or »adhesive-provided labels (21 to 23) _?

-a facility for the delivery of those to be labeled ! Bottles (27,28),

-a reinforced or curved channel to stick the labels on (24 Ms 26),

-a device for removing the labeled bottles (27 to 29) and finally

-an electrical control _s which synchronizes the operation of these various individual devices (Pig. 3).

The device works as follows:

When operating this device with your transducer, which is a head piece has, times * d: \ e truncates labels that are continuous 1Δ printed on the paper or label there is a notch IB on the edge between each label having.

660670726.11.70

The! Button is preferably a pneumatic Easter "that has a channel through which the label strip 1A runs evenly or without jerks _?" as well as a pen nozzle * which lies on the "path of the notches", and a pneumatic capsule which lies opposite the air nozzle "or the air jet. While passing through a notch, the air jet hits the membrane of the pneumatic capsule, which actuates an electrical contact.

On an ITabe 2 _? which au.f free its axis 3 to rotate, a paper roll 1 is arranged, which is, however, slowed down by a leaf spring 4 _s so that the label strip IA can be pulled off the same bulky without shock or jolt "The label strip runs through the channel of the pneumatic QJasters 5 -, the brake 6, then between the two rollers 7 and 8, whereby one roller 7 is driven and _{rotates continuously at a constant speed 9} and the other roller 8 rotates empty on its axis, the paper bav; * label strips 1A by the pedal 9 on the lever 10 on the roller 7 rests or is pressed _s whereby the paper strip IA is moved forward.

An electromagnet 11 controls through the crosspiece 12 at the same time the disengagement or "uncoupling of the roller 8 and the braking of the paper strip by the brake" 6.

magnet is put under tension by the contact of the pneumatic button 5, the paper strip -is stopped for a fraction of a second and cut by the movable knife 13 and the fixed counter knife 14. The roller 15, which is actuated by the movement of the blade 13 _"s occurs on the separated label on the provided with a head piece pick-up - 16 for abutting ,, at which sticks the label and weitert by the rotary motion about its axis afordert < The receptacle 16 has previously taken up the adhesive from the adhesive distribution cylinder 17. An auxiliary cam 18, which is fastened to the receptacle 16 and rotates with it, closes the circuit of the electromagnet 11 through a microcontact 20 _{0 of} the through the with a roller provided lever 19 is operated.

Simultaneously, the brake 6 is released and the roller 3 comes by the spring 9 on the paper strip on the Rc ¹ Ue 7 to abut _s so that it is moved again. The Hilfsnoeken 18 returns the lever 19 and the micro-contact 20 freely, which is closed by the Eeder 19 'again (Pig. 3) "As soon as the subsequent notch in front of the opening of the compressed-air nozzle of the! Casters 5 arrives, the circuit of the electromagnet is 11 again closed. Then the process runs again as described above and further carried out below _e

The label is delivered by the pick-up 16 in the position ₉ in which it is located on the cylinder 21, which rotates on a stationary handle 22. The pick-up finger 25 removes it from the pick-up 16 or removes it gehalten- on the cylinder 21 by the voltage applied to this suppressing until one of the! bottles _s arrives the delivered and by the! conveyor belt 27 v isolated / ground successively through the manifold 28 from each other, the position of the cuts of this distributor is controlled so that the fraige- repent bottle ganauin the moment arrives in which the beginning of the label is delivered to the cylinder 21 with the adhesive-coated side. the Piasehe places these rubberized or "adhesive-provided surface of the label to that of you stuck and which comes off the cylinder 21 after the negative pressure is removed or "the" connection with the atmosphere is established "The cylinder 21 conveys during its rotary movement ung the bottle _s lying against it, on the soft and resilient coating 24 of the circular channel 25. The pressure of the coating 24 on the bottle is set by the spring 26 ₉ whereby the bottle also rolls on the label. The cylinder 21 serves as a rotatable distributor for the transport of the labels, whereby a vacuum is applied once and then the connection with the atmosphere is established. The bottles are then transported away by the conveyor belt 27 and they are given a rotary movement

660670726.11.70

A perfect adhesive bond with the labels is guaranteed. This rotational movement is maintained by the endless belt 29 made of white I-material, the speed of which is Y ₂ greater than the speed T j of the conveyor belt 27.

It is of course possible "in this device," the one "example embodiment is _$ a series of changes vcrsunehiaen

Thus, the entire arrangement can be arranged in front of the knife in a substantially vertical plane, where e. ^r j _s is sufficient to perform the cutting in a substantially horizontal plane ,,

The pneumatic switch for the intended at the edge notches can by a Caster or IPühler with a "special element for detecting the position of the label to be replaced," This particular element can wherein the iEaster then operates mechanically, an incision ssein _9, a Einrichtuing _s responds to different brightness or light intensity, whereby the Easter then works photoelectrically, an interrupted electrical circuit (with a recess or a conductive zone) with an electrical button or a zone with a magnetic coating, in which case a magnetic button is used Preferably, however, a pneumatic button is used because it is extremely stable

The device according to the invention brings a number of practicalities Benefits with siehj such as:

- The possibility of using. Labels _s that are wound into rolls ₉ which can store or deploy a large number of labels in a convenient way?

- the possibility of using paper rolls, whoever Notched paper strips and a standard one

Equipment can be printed _s which is arranged in front of the! Button eye «;

660670726.11.70

- You can also use partially "printed labels" and continuously provide them with an additional imprint, such as the PateikationBOuifflner;

- you can use labels in continuous strips without perforations and without a tear line between each label, making the production of νοη label strips essential is simplified;

- one can produce label rolls with different diameters and replace them very quickly (although no setting needs to be made, as the sequence of the Operations are controlled by the continuous markings or notches);

- no facility for recording and sticking the The label works back and forth, which reduces wear and tear and makes adjustment easier;

- there is a possibility of applying the label on the entire cylindrical surface of a bottle itself with an overlap stick on;

- no errors can occur when separating the labels, which series of acts or which labels with different Dimensions are also used;

- insensitivity to changes in the label tire, such as changes in strength, moisture content, etc .;

- the device is extremely robust, it is practically un-

660670726.ii.70

sensitive to remnants of cut off Easer, etc.

- after all, it can do so with a significantly increased clock rate work j it can process labels of different widths and can be attached to a pleated belt or derglo without difficulty.

Although it is difficult _? an example of the operation of the erf IncLmigsgeinäßes.
