Definitions
- the present invention relates to a labeling device for containers. These are currently being built as rotary machines. In these, the containers are held during labeling on holding elements which are arranged in the circumference of a rotating Tramsportrades. Such labeling devices allow the labeling of containers, especially bottles with a high throughput. A disadvantage of these devices is the lack of flexibility. It may thus occur, for example, that a rotary labeling machine is dimensioned for a specific throughput, so that, for example, two labeling stations are arranged in their peripheral area. If it now turns out in the course of use that the throughput has to be increased considerably, the circumferential length of the rotary labeling machines sets limits which make an arrangement of further labeling stations appear to increase the throughput impossible.
- the labeling device has at least one conveying device for the containers with at least one deflectable or flexible elongated endless conveying element, which rotates closed between at least two deflecting stations and has holding elements for the containers.
- an endless conveyor element can be designed, for example, as a link chain, as a segment conveyor as is known, for example, as a baggage conveyor in airports, or as a conveyor belt.
- holding elements are mounted to promote the container along the conveying path weges the conveyor.
- Such holding elements may include, for example, head elements, such as neck handling grippers, which grip a container, such as a bottle further up in the area of the bottle neck or centering tulips which center a bottle only in the horizontal plane from above.
- the headers may be equipped with or without a motorized rotary drive to rotate the containers about their vertical axis.
- the holding elements may also include foot elements, such as stand plate with or without a motorized rotary drive, which foot elements are usually mounted on / on a conveyor belt, link chain or segment conveyor.
- the stand plates are provided with a rotary drive, with which the containers, in particular bottles are rotatable about its axis, the centering is then also rotatable, so that the bottle for a labeling can be rotated about its vertical axis, while being conveyed by the conveyor becomes.
- the conveying device can have a plurality of conveying elements, for example two conveying elements arranged one above the other.
- the head elements are then preferably mounted on the upper conveying element, while the foot elements are mounted on the lower conveying element.
- a container such as a bottle can be gripped or centered both in its upper region and supported in its lower region, in particular rotatable.
- the conveying device comprises the conveying elements, deflection stations and retaining elements and all the peripheral elements necessary for operation, such as sensors, switches, control elements and electronics.
- the labeling device has at least one inlet / outlet area for the supply and removal of containers to the conveyor.
- the inlet and outlet areas may be arranged at separate locations, but are preferably arranged at one location, preferably in the region of a deflection station.
- an inlet / outlet device is preferably arranged, for example an inlet / outlet star, by means of which the labeling device controls the container supply and removal.
- the inlet / outlet region may only have guides, in which case the supply and removal of containers is via feed / drain devices separated by the labeler.
- the labeling device includes its own inlet / outlet device, such as an inlet / outlet star, this is preferably arranged in the region of a deflection, because here the inlet star and the outlet star can be relatively closely juxtaposed, without disturbing each other. Thus, for example, they are able to transfer the containers from a conveyor belt to the conveyor device of the labeling device and from there back to the conveyor belt.
- the labeling device has at least one labeling station, preferably at least two labeling stations, which is / are arranged in the region along the conveying path of the conveying element between the two deflection stations.
- endless conveyor and “conveyor” are used synonymously.
- container in particular comprises containers for holding beverages or pasty substances but also for bulk goods, such as e.g. Bottles, PET bottles, party cans, kegs.
- a key aspect of the invention is to place labeling stations along the linear area of a conveyor having an elongated endless conveyor element extending between at least two diverters.
- the advantage of this basic concept of the invention is that the labeling device can be sized according to the requirements and thus in terms of throughput. can be fitted.
- the distance between the diverters can be two meters, resulting in a linear arrangement area for labeling and other container treatment stations of four meters. If now more labeling stations are needed, the distance between see the two deflection stations increased and the existing endless conveyor elements can be easily exchanged for longer endless conveyor elements, or even easier to be extended.
- the size of the additionally created linear region of the conveying device for arranging additional labeling stations increases twice as much as the increase in the distance between the two deflection stations. For example, if the distance between the diverters is increased from two to three meters, a total of six meters of linear placement is achieved for labeling stations and other container handling stations, ie an increase of two meters. A simple linear extension thus leads to a strong expansion of the arrangement possibilities of further labeling stations and further container treatment stations.
- the advantage here is further that the increase in size of the labeling device only takes place linearly at an enlargement and not square as in a rotary machine. In addition, existing labeling can remain in place and do not need to be re-assembled.
- the space required for a linear labeling device according to the invention is thus significantly lower than in rotary machines. It is of course not necessary that the conveying element is arranged only along a straight line.
- the conveying element can also run around one or more corners, wherein at the deflection then deflection elements, such as sprockets or corresponding guide devices are arranged, which realize a deflection of the conveying element at the kink in the horizontal plane. It can thus be provided with a desired angle to each other several linear conveyor areas, which allows additional possibilities in terms of design and space use, eg in halls that do not have a correspondingly long linear range.
- the simplest and least expensive arrangement of a labeling device according to the invention is a linear orientation of the conveying device, in which the Endless conveying element runs between two deflection stations, so that the conveying element runs linearly, ie uni-axially, between the two deflection stations in the manner of an elongated closed loop.
- the right-side conveyor element section as well as the opposite left-side conveyor element section of the conveyor element loop offer possible arrangement positions for labeling stations and, if necessary, other container treatment stations.
- the two deflection stations can be fastened to separate frames at the bottom of a building, in which case the distance of the frames from one another and / or the position of the deflection station on at least one of the frames relative to the respective other frame can be changed.
- the deflecting stations are arranged on a frame, which has fastening sections for the two deflecting stations, preferably in the region of its two ends. At least one fastening section, possibly also both fastening sections of the frame, then preferably allow attachment of the associated deflection station in a plurality of positions along the longitudinal axes of the frame.
- the distance between the two deflecting stations attached to the frames can thus be set as desired, so that the length of the labeling device can be increased or decreased in accordance with the needs.
- the frame has mounting devices for attaching at least one, preferably at least two labeling stations.
- the labeling stations can be fixed to the frame, whereby forces occurring between the labeling station and the conveyor can be transferred well.
- the position of the labeling station is then precisely defined relative to the conveying path of the conveying device, which is important for accurate labeling.
- the frame has at least one continuous mounting element extending between the deflecting stations in the longitudinal direction of the frame, for example as a longitudinally extending profile / bar.
- This mounting element then allows mounting of labeling stations and other container processing stations in arbitrary positions between the deflection stations.
- the labeling and other container processing stations to the mounting element complementing fasteners, such as flanges or jaws.
- the arrangement of the labeling and other container processing stations between the deflection is thus absolutely freely selectable, allowing a very individual adaptation of the machine design to different needs.
- the existing space can be optimally utilized by the labeling stations and possibly other container processing stations are arranged as close as possible to each other on the conveyor line.
- the distance between the at least two deflection stations of the conveying device is adjustable and the conveying element can be correspondingly lengthened or shortened in its length. In this way, the length of the conveying element can be adjusted as desired in accordance with the distance between the deflecting stations, without requiring replacement of the entire conveying element.
- the frame contains at least two longitudinally adjustable frame parts on which the deflection stations are arranged. In this way, the distance between the deflection stations can be adjusted to one another in a simple manner.
- Such frame parts may e.g. Be longitudinal profiles that slide together like a rail and can be set in any position, or the frame may have frame part that can be inserted or removed. In this way, the distance between the deflecting stations can be adjusted quickly and easily.
- At least two of the frame parts each carry a deflection station so that with the adjustment of the frame parts to each other and the distance between the deflection stations is adjusted to each other.
- At least one of the deflection stations is driven in the conveying device, which has the advantage that a separate drive does not have to be provided in the region of the linear conveying path of the conveying element, which in turn would restrict the access of the conveying path for labeling stations or other container processing stations.
- labeling stations are arranged between the deflection stations along the endless conveying element, so that the throughput of the labeling device can be correspondingly increased.
- each deflection station has at least one deflection wheel, which engages with the conveying element.
- the deflection wheel be designed in the manner of a chain pinion. If in this case preferably also the deflection station is driven, on the one hand a very defined drive of the conveying element can be realized and on the other hand the drive is accommodated in an area in which it does not restrict access to the conveying path.
- the frame has at least one continuous mounting element extending between the deflecting stations in the longitudinal direction of the frame, for example as a longitudinal profile / bar.
- This mounting element then allows mounting of labeling stations and other container processing stations in any position between the diverters.
- the labeling stations and other container processing stations have fastening elements which complement the mounting element, eg flanges or clamping jaws.
- the arrangement of the labeling and other container processing stations between the deflection is thus absolutely freely selectable, which is a very individual adaptation of the machine design to different needs.
- the existing space can be optimally utilized by the labeling stations and possibly other container processing stations are arranged as close as possible to each other on the conveyor line.
- the frame contains at least two longitudinally adjustable frame parts on which the deflection stations are arranged.
- frame parts may e.g. Be longitudinal profiles that slide together like a rail and can be set in any position, or the frame may have frame part that can be inserted or removed. In this way, the distance between the deflecting stations can be adjusted quickly and easily.
- at least two of the frame parts each carry a deflection station so that with the adjustment of the frame parts to each other and the distance between the deflection stations is adjusted to each other.
- At least one of the deflection stations is driven in the conveying device, which has the advantage that a separate drive does not have to be provided in the region of the linear conveying path of the conveying element, which in turn would restrict the access of the conveying path for labeling stations or other container processing stations.
- Preferably, several labeling stations are arranged between the deflection stations along the endless conveying element, so that the throughput of the labeling device can be correspondingly increased.
- each deflection station has at least one deflection wheel, which engages with the conveying element.
- the deflection wheel may be designed in the manner of a chain pinion. If in this case preferably also the deflection station is driven, on the one hand a very definite On the other hand, the drive is housed in an area in which it does not restrict access to the conveyor line.
- the holding elements are formed by head elements for holding the containers in the upper region and / or foot elements for holding the containers in the foot region. In this case, since head elements grip the containers more in the upper region of the container, it is advantageous if the associated conveying element is arranged higher up with respect to the conveyed containers.
- the conveying element is preferably arranged further down and preferably designed as a segment conveying element. Then, each segment may be provided with at least one foot element, such as stand plate with its own rotary drive to rotate the container about its own axis.
- the conveying element is preferably arranged in the lower region, ie in the region of the bottom of the container. If both head element and foot elements are provided, they can be held either via a common conveying element or and / or via separate conveying elements. In any case, it is advantageous if the mutual distance between the head and foot elements is adjustable, whereby containers of different heights can be handled with the conveying device of the labeling device.
- the head and / or foot elements are releasably held on the conveyor element, which allows easy replacement of the corresponding elements, if they are defective or worn.
- the head element is designed as a combined head element, which has a neck handling gripper and a centering tulip.
- the head element is adjustable, for example rotatably held on the conveyor element, so that either the neck handling gripper or the centering tulip can selectively engage the transported containers.
- the neck handling gripper and the centering tulip can be arranged transversely on a rotary shaft, which is held rotatably on the conveying element, in particular about a horizontal axis. The rotation can be done eg by motor. By a simple rotation of the rotary shaft by 180 ° then occurs either the centering tulip or the neck handling gripper into engagement with the container.
- the centering tulip may preferably have its own rotary drive, whereby the centering tulip and thus the gripped bottle is displaceable in a rotational movement, which may be necessary for the labeling process.
- the combined head element can interact with a corresponding foot element, for example a base plate, in particular a turntable.
- a labeling station is designed as a hot-glue labeling station for processing labels "from the sheet" and arranged in the peripheral area of a deflection station. allows the arrangement in the peripheral region of a deflection station a more advantageous label removal, as if they were arranged in the linear section of the conveying path between two deflection stations.
- the following labeling stations can be arranged: cold glue labeling stations, sheet or roll hot glue labeling stations, roll fed stations, printing devices such as ink jet printers, inspection devices, surveillance cameras, alignment units. All of these labeling stations or container treatment stations ensure proper attachment of a label or printing, preferably the lateral surface of a container, in particular a bottle.
- guide means are arranged in the course of the conveying path between the deflection stations, which define the position of the conveying element in the horizontal plane transversely to the conveying direction.
- a guide means may e.g. be a rail in or on which the conveyor element is running. This is important to determine the position of the transported container relative to the labeling station.
- the labeling device preferably comprises two conveying elements arranged vertically one above the other, the upper conveying element carrying head elements which grip the containers in their upper region and the lower conveying element base elements which support the containers in the lower region.
- the headers may e.g. Centering tulips or Neckhandling gripper, while the foot elements, e.g. are designed as a base plate or turntable.
- the distance between the head elements and the foot elements is adjustable in order to be able to process containers of different sizes in this way.
- the labeling device can also be quickly switched between different container handling techniques: For example, initially the labeling device is set to neckhandling. Here foot level (level of the foot elements) is moved so far down that the containers can hang freely. In the head plane, “Neck handling is active.” For conversion, the combi head element is switched to "Centering tulip" and adjusted in height such that the centering tulips are at the desired height. The foot level becomes like this adjusted so that the containers can be moved at the level of container transport plane.
- the technical means known in the art are provided, such as rotary transmission, drag chains, sliding contacts, rotary distributor and radio transmitter, radio receiver.
- the transmission of computerized technical information is foreseen in both directions.
- the advantages of the present invention lie in the further increase in component standardization and in the ease of use that can also be used by the customer by lengthening the revolving conveyor elements and inserting further guide and / or rotary elements. Furthermore, there are new and varied possibilities for converting the labeling device to different container types.
- height-adjustable centerings are provided for the containers on the head and / or foot elements, whereby the containers can be aligned centered in the holding elements.
- the head and foot elements can form a unit and be attached to only one conveyor element. They can also be attached to separate conveyor elements. Regardless, their mutual distance is preferably adjustable.
- the entire conveyor element is divided into a left-side conveyor element section, which lies to the left of the two deflection stations and into a right-side conveyor element section, which lies to the right of the two deflection stations.
- the conveying element moves in opposite directions in the two conveying element sections.
- the labeling stations and other processing stations can be arranged between the two counter-rotating conveyor element sections of the conveyor element and / or outside of the counter-rotating conveyor element sections, which allows a variety of possible machine designs and a more or less high density of the labeling, and thus a corresponding optimized space utilization. If the diameter of the two deflection stations is the same size, the two linear counter-rotating conveyor element sections run parallel to one another. This is not the case if one diverter station has a different radius than the other. Then the two counter-rotating conveyor element sections are at an acute angle to each other. In this way, quite a few device designs are possible to optimally utilize a given space in a building.
- labeling station also includes printing stations because containers are increasingly printed directly rather than provided with labels.
- the invention thus also extends to printing devices without labels.
- the invention also relates to a method for adjusting the handling capacity of a labeling machine according to one of the preceding claims, characterized by a sequence of the following steps:
- the at least one conveying element is opened
- the length of the conveyor element is increased / decreased according to the changed distance of the deflection stations
- the number of labeling stations is adjusted according to the changed mutual distance of the deflection stations.

- the labeled bottles are transferred from the conveyor disc 12 via an outlet star 19 on a discharge belt 20.
- each labeling station 22a, 22b, 22c is arranged in this example, so that a certain throughput can be achieved with this known labeling device, which ultimately depends on the treatment length available behind the labeling station 22a, 22b and 22c .
- Each labeling station can be designed in a manner known per se, for example as a hot glue, cold glue labeling station or as a printing station, which applies the text or images to be applied directly to the bottle.

- more labeling stations in the present case eight labeling stations 20a-20h, can be arranged within a certain length of the labeling device, but this is usually associated with a slight increase in width of the labeling device due to the larger radius of the deflection stations 72,74.
- such elements are arranged indoors that require little or no intervention by the operator. Accordingly, it is particularly advantageous if printing, alignment, dating or inspection systems are arranged in the interior.
- FIG. 8 shows a conveyor element arrangement 90 with an upper endless conveyor element 92 and a lower endless conveyor element 94, which are each designed as segment conveyors with segments 84 according to FIG. 7 and arranged one above the other.
- Each segment 84 of the upper segment conveyor 92 contains as a holding elements centering tulips 96 for centering the top of a bottle 14, while each segment 84 of the lower endless conveyor element 94 as a holding member each having a stand plate 98 with motorized rotary drive. Since both the upper endless conveying element 92 and the lower endless conveying element 94 are driven together by the deflection stations 34, 36, they move in absolute synchronism with each other so that the bottles 14 maintain their vertical direction in each conveying position.
- the distance of the centering tulips 96 from the stand plates 98 can be increased, which is generally realized via guide slots which engage with corresponding holding elements 96, 98 or with the conveying elements 92, 94 themselves ,
- FIG. 9 shows part of a link 102 of a conveyor element 100, in which the links 102 are connected to each other via vertical swivel joints (not shown).

- the labeling device according to the invention can be adapted to local circumstances, if a linear labeling is difficult to accommodate for reasons of space.
- the deflection stations 34, 36; 72, 74 are formed as star wheels, which cause not only the deflection but also the mechanical drive of the conveying element 32. It goes without saying, however, that the deflection station 34, 36; 72, 74 can also be carried out in other ways.
- the deflection station 34, 36; 72, 74 may be formed as a rigid, non-circumferential guideways, which lead the conveying element 32 only.
- the mechanical drive of the conveyor element 32 takes place, for example, by drive motors arranged in the interior of the device which act on the conveyor element 32.
