  • the present invention relates also to a device for applying labels to packets of cigarettes.
  • the aforementioned object is realized in a device according to the present invention for applying labels to packets of cigarettes, wherein one label is applied to each packet, straddling one corner edge, the label and the packet defining a first area of mutual contact located on the corner edge and second areas of mutual contact located on the two faces of the packet contiguous to the corner edge, the device comprising first conveying means by which the packets are advanced singly and in succession along a first predetermined path toward an affixing station, second conveying means by which the labels are advanced singly and in succession along a second predetermined path toward the affixing station, and a first gumming device operating in conjunction with at least one of the first and second conveying means, by which the second areas of mutual contact are coated with adhesive in such a way that the ends of the label can be affixed to the two respective faces of the packet contiguous to the corner edge, characterized in that it also comprises a second gumming device operating in conjunction with at least one of the first and second conveying means and serving to apply a hot melt
  • 1 denotes a portion of a packaging machine and 2 denotes a device, in its entirety, for the application of labels 3 to packets 4 of cigarettes.
  • the portion 1 of the packaging machine comprises first conveying means, denoted 5 in their entirety, by which the packets 4 are taken up singly at an infeed section 6 and advanced in succession along a first predetermined feed path P1 in a first feed direction F1 toward an affixing station 7 where a label 3, consisting for example in a manufacturing levy or revenue stamp, is applied to each packet 4.
  • the device 2 comprises applicator means located at the affixing station 7 and denoted 8 in their entirety, of which the function is to attach one label 3 to each of the advancing packets 4.
  • such applicator means 8 comprise a transfer unit 9 by which the labels 3 are supplied and affixed one to each packet 4; the unit 9 in question comprises a second conveyor centred on a corresponding axis 10 and appearing as a drum 11 rotatable anticlockwise in the direction denoted F2 in figure 1, so as to advance the labels 3 along a second predetermined path P2 and toward the affixing station 7, at which point the first path P1 and the second path P2 run substantially tangential.
  • the drum 11 operates cantilevered from a fixed vertical bulkhead 12 presented by the portion 1 of the packaging machine, disposed with its axis 10 of rotation extending transversely to the first and second feed paths P1 and P2 and delimited radially by a substantially cylindrical wall 13 presenting a plurality of angularly equispaced means 14 by which to retain one relative label 3, each consisting in a boss 15 integral with the wall 13 and delimited radially by a surface 16 presenting a cylindrical profile concentric with the wall 13 of the drum 11.
  • the drum 11 incorporates radial ducts, denoted 17 and indicated by phantom lines in figures 1 and 2, passing through each boss 15 and the relative part of the cylindrical wall 13 and terminating at the end remote from the axis 10 in respective suction holes 18 positioned to attract the labels 3.
  • the holes 18 are arranged on the surface 16 of each boss 15 in rows and connected by way of the aforementioned radial ducts 17 to a pneumatic circuit not shown in the drawings, being conventional in embodiment.
  • each boss 15 and by the wall 13 underneath is a radial slot 19 affording passage to a respective fold-down blade 20 capable of movement along a substantially radial trajectory relative to the drum 11 brought about by an actuating mechanism denoted 21 in its entirety, between a retracted position assumed upstream of the affixing station 7 in relation to the direction of rotation F2 of the drum 11, in which the blade 20 is located inside drum 11 as in figure 1, and an extended position assumed at the affixing station 7 in which the blade 20 projects in part from the surface 16 of the respective boss 15.
  • the actuating mechanism 21 is associated with a parallelogram linkage 22 of which the function and the mechanical structure are disclosed in US Patent n° 5,111,633, to which reference may be made for a full description of the structure and operation of the components which drive the drum 11, also of the pneumatic circuit and of the actuating mechanism 21 operating the parallelogram linkage 22.
  • labels 3 are released to the transfer unit 9 from a feed unit 23 mounted to the bulkhead 12 and incorporating a storage and feed line 24 along which the labels 3 advance.
  • the line 24 is equipped with a magazine 25 containing a stack 26 of the labels 3, which are taken up by suction from the bottom of the selfsame stack 26 in conventional manner by a circular sector 27, and passed cyclically to the single bosses 15 of the drum 11.
  • the first conveying means 5 comprise a substantially horizontal belt conveyor 28 looped around pulleys 29 (one only of which is visible in figure 1), by which packets 4 of cigarettes are caused to advance in succession along the first path P1 in the first direction F1, each lying flat and disposed with its predominating longitudinal axis extending transversely to the path P1, in contact with a horizontal surface 30 afforded by a pair of rails 31 (one only of which is visible in figure 1) each presenting a profile substantially of L shape when seen in section; the two rails 31 are spaced apart one from the other, extending parallel to the vertical bulkhead 12 and perpendicularly to the axis 10 of the drum 11.
  • the packets 4 are maintained in alignment by two lateral conveyors 32 (one only of which is visible in figure 1) disposed on either side of the belt conveyor 28, at a height above a top branch of the selfsame conveyor 28, which is furnished also with a plurality of outwardly projecting and uniformly distributed pushing appendages 33 occupying the space between the two rails 31 in such a way as to engage the packets 4 and direct them toward the affixing station 7.
  • the device 2 will be seen to comprise a first gumming device 34, stationed along the second path P2 beyond the magazine 25 in the direction of rotation F2 described by the drum 11, and a second gumming device 35 stationed further along the path P2.
  • the first gumming device 34 comprises a reservoir 36 and a pair of coaxial rollers 37 (one only of which is visible in figure 1), disposed tangentially to the surface 16 of each boss 15 and in such a way, as discernible clearly from figure 3 in particular, as to deposit two substantially parallel dabs 38 of cold setting adhesive on the face 3a of each label 3 destined to enter into contact with the relative packet 4.
  • the second gumming device 35 is a jet type and comprises a nozzle 39 designed, as discernible from figure 3, to deposit a spot 40 of hot melt adhesive between the two dabs 38 of cold setting adhesive deposited previously.
  • the labels 3 are transferred to the periphery of the drum 11 from above by the circular sector 27, released cyclically onto the surfaces 16 of the bosses 15 and retained on each surface through the agency of the suction holes 18.
  • Each label 3 is then transferred without pause, as the drum rotates continuously in the conveying direction F2, toward the stations occupied by the gumming devices 34 and 35.
  • two elongated dabs 38 of cold setting adhesive material are applied to the outward facing surface 3a of the label 3, whereas at the gumming station occupied by the second gumming device 35, a spot 40 of hot melt adhesive is applied to this same surface 3a of the label 3 by the nozzle 39.
  • Each gummed label 3 arrives thus at the affixing station 7 and is offered to a relative packet 4; more exactly, the end 41 of the label 3 positioned forwardmost along the direction of rotation F2 of the drum 11 is offered to the top face 42 of the packet 4, whilst the remaining end 43 projecting freely from the top face 42 is bent immediately and flattened against the flank face 44 of the packet 4 adjoining the top face 42. In this situation the label 3 remains tacked to one corner edge 45 of the packet 4 by the action of the spot 40 of hot melt adhesive.
  • the second gumming device 35 is positioned along the first path P1 associated with the looped belt conveyor 28 rather than along the second path P2 associated with the drum 11, in such a way as to apply a spot 40 of hot melt adhesive to the corner edge 45 of the packet 4 at a given moment immediately before the packet enters the affixing station 7.
  • the method disclosed envisages a first area of mutual contact denoted 46 which can be an area either of the label 3 or of the corner edge 45, to which a spot 40 of hot melt adhesive is applied, also second areas of mutual contact 47 which can be areas of the two ends 41 and 43 of the label 3 or areas of the two portions presented by the faces 42 and 44 of the packet 4 to which the two corresponding ends 41 and 43 of the label 3 are affixed by means of the dabs 38 of cold setting adhesive.
  • the second gumming device 35 when stationed along the first path P1 associated with the belt conveyor 28 in a position immediately upstream of the affixing station 7, can be made to place the spot 40 of hot melt adhesive exactly on the corner edge 45 as in figure 5, or alternatively on the top face 42 or the flank face 44 of the packet 4, in either case immediately adjacent to the corner edge 45 as in figures 6 and 7 respectively.
  • the second gumming device 35 can place the spot 40 of hot melt adhesive exactly on a line 45' destined to coincide with the corner edge 45 of the packet 4 as illustrated in figure 8, or on a point in close proximity to the line 45' as in figures 9 and 10.
  • the function of the spot 40 of hot melt adhesive applied to the first area of mutual contact 46 is to tack the gummed label 3 in effect instantaneously to the packet 4 and prevent it thus from springing back to the former flat condition, ensuring that the correct position, straddling the corner edge 45 of the packet 4, is maintained for a length of time sufficient for the dabs 38 of cold setting adhesive to cure completely.
