Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a label cutting machine which can be used for various file labels, floppy disk labels, cassette tape labels, VTR labels, printed matter labels and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, for example, when sticking a label on the back of a commonly used 3.5-inch floppy disk, stick the label sheet attached to the floppy disk and then write the title or abstract on the back by handwriting. After filling in or printing the subject or abstract on a printing tape, it was cut with scissors and attached to the label attachment position size on the back of the floppy disk.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, it is difficult to write the title or abstract on the back of the floppy disk by hand using the label sheet attached to the floppy disk, it does not look neat and clean, and it is easy to color-code the labels. First, it took a lot of time to make a large amount.

In addition, when the subject or summary is printed on a printing tape or the like and then cut and attached to the back surface of the floppy disk with scissors or the like, it takes time and labor to cut the label sticking position size on the back surface of the floppy disk. It was difficult to fabricate.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and when the label is cut into a desired size, the size such as the width and the length of the label before cutting changes. Also, it is an object of the present invention to provide a label cutting machine that can easily perform positioning for cutting and can easily and in large quantities produce labels.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 To achieve this object, the label cutting machine of the present invention comprises a fixing means for fixing the label and a pair of cutting means for sandwiching and cutting the label from above and below. It comprises a cutting means for cutting and a positioning means for moving the fixing means relative to the cutting means and appropriately adjusting and positioning the positional relationship between the label and the cutting means.

[0007]

[Action]

 In the label cutting machine of the present invention having the above structure, the label is fixed by the fixing means, and the fixing means is moved relatively to the cutting means by the positioning means so that the positional relationship between the label and the cutting means is appropriate. Adjust and position. Then, the label is sandwiched by the cutting means from above and below to cut.

[0008]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In this embodiment, a tape cutter for making a label to be attached to the back surface of a 3.5-inch floppy disk will be described.

The tape cutter of the present embodiment is mainly provided with a cutting position guide member 4, a knife blade member 13 adhered to the cutting position guide member 4, and between the cutting position guide member 4 and the knife blade member 13. The movable position aligning device 8, the cutting device 7, and the tape collecting case 6 adhered to the knife blade member 13. As shown in FIG. 5, the movable alignment device 8 is configured by combining a frame 1 for each adjusting member guide, a tape length adjusting member 2, and a tape width adjusting member 3. A tape insertion opening 10 is formed.

As shown in FIG. 4, the cutting position guide member 4 is provided with a shaft fixing ring 21 for rotating the cutting device and a cutting guide hole 5. Then, the movable alignment device 8 is sandwiched, and the diagonally shaded portion is bonded to the female blade member 13. The cutting position guide member 4 may be made of an opaque material, but is preferably made of a transparent resin through which the tape 11 can be seen, such as a vinyl-based resin, a styrene-based resin, an acrylic-based resin, or a glass material. desirable. Polystyrene was used in this example.

As shown in FIG. 5, the movable position adjusting device 8 is configured so that the tape length adjusting member 2 and the tape width adjusting member 3 are guided by the frame 1, and the tape length adjusting member 2 and the tape width adjusting member 2 are guided. The adjustment member 3 slides in the direction of the arrow to hold the tape. The movable alignment device 8 is guided by the cutting position guide member 4 and the knife blade member 13 and slides in the direction of arrow A in FIG.

FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the knife blade member 13. The knife blade member 13 is provided with a recess for sliding the movable position adjusting device 8 and a knife blade 14. Then, the movable position aligning device 8 is sandwiched, and the cut position guide member 4 is adhered to the shaded portion.

As shown in FIG. 1, the cutting device 7 has basically the same structure as a punch for making a hole in a paper such as a report or a document, and is rotatable on the shaft fixing ring 21 of the cutting position guide member 4. The lever 12 is supported by the lever 12, and the male blade 9 is supported by the lever 12 at the support portion 12a. The male blade 9 passes through the cutting guide hole 5 of the cutting position guide member 4 and engages with the female blade 14 of the female blade member 13 to cut the tape.

The female blade 14 of the female blade member 13 and the male blade 9 of the cutting device 7 are sized to match the label sticking position on the back surface of the floppy disk.

Next, the operation will be described.

First, the cutting device 7 is rotated so that the cutting guide hole 5 of the cutting position guide member 4 can be seen from the upper surface. Next, the tape 11 is inserted from the tape insertion opening 10. After inserting the tape 11 all the way, move the tape width adjusting member 3 to match the width of the inserted tape, determine the tape position in the width direction, and fix it. Then, the tape length adjusting member 2 is moved through the cutting guide hole 5 of the cutting position guide member 4 while observing the printing surface of the tape 11 to determine and fix the tape position in the length direction. By the operations up to this point, the tape 11 is fixed to the frame 1 of the tape cutter.

Further, the movable aligning device 8 is moved so that the desired cutting portion is located in the cutting guide hole 5. By the above operation, the cutting position of the tape 11 is determined.

After that, the cutting device 7 is rotationally moved back to the original position, the lever 12 is pushed down, the tape 11 is sandwiched between the male blade 9 and the female blade 14, and the male blade 9 is also a tape collecting case. Push down until it comes out to side 6 and cut. Then, the cut tape is collected in the tape collecting case 6.

As is clear from the above description, according to the tape cutter of this embodiment, even if the size of the label to be cut changes, the cutting position of the printing surface on the label can be set easily and reliably. It is possible to easily and in large quantities produce labels.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and corrections can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.

For example, by changing the size of the male blade 9 of the cutting device 7 and its guide, the cutting guide hole 5 of the cutting position guide member 4, and the female blade 14 of the female blade member 13, for a cassette tape, 8 mm VTR It is possible to easily produce various labels such as printed materials and other printed materials.

[0023]

[Effect of device]

 As is clear from the above description, according to the label cutting machine of the present invention, even if the size of the label to be cut changes, the cutting position of the printing surface on the label can be set easily and accurately. In addition, a large number of labels can be produced.
