Definitions

the invention relates to an article with a labeled lateral surface according to the preamble of claim 1 or 9 and an apparatus for labeling such an article according to the preamble of claim 10 or 12.
a generic article is known for example from WO 95/01912.
the article disclosed therein is a container having upper and lower cylindrical surfaces and an intermediate concave peripheral groove. Adjoining the upper cylindrical region of the lateral surface is a conically tapered jacket section which, together with the cylindrical lateral surfaces and the groove, is covered by a heat-shrinkable wrap-around label with overlapping end sections.
a rectangular label blank which is separated, for example, from a label roll, adhered in the region of its label leading edge to the cylindrical shell sections, completely wound around the vessel to form an overlap connection between the label edges and applied by means of a shrink treatment to the described vessel contour.
the problem is in particular the shrinkage treatment, especially in the region of the concave radially inwardly shaped Nutzone.
the invention has for its object to improve the labeling of articles with a radial indicate an inwardly formed region, in particular a region formed inside a lateral surface.
the air outlet openings may be formed as a barely perceptible to the naked eye perforation in the label.
z. B. concave groove is also an approximately over the entire circumference of the label extending perforation line particularly advantageous to ensure a uniform air discharge in the shrinkage treatment.
the perforation line is preferably arranged centrally to the groove.
the adhesive bond at the Etikettendraggings- or label leading edge can be temporary nature, only upright during the winding of the label on the article an adhesive bond obtained after the completion of the overlap connection between the beginning of the label and this overlapping label end edge is no longer needed. This optional measure also facilitates label removal in conjunction with a later recycling process.
the overlap connection between the initial label and the overlapping label end edge must be of lasting quality in order to withstand the shrinkage treatment after winding, which is usually triggered by heating.
a hot melt curable by ultraviolet irradiation is particularly advantageous. If necessary, this can also be used for attaching the initial label edge to the article, in particular if a permanent attachment of the label, even after the shrinking treatment, is desired.
This type of attachment with UV-curable hot glue at the label start edge and / or label end edge is also in a Rundumetikettierung of articles without a radially inwardly formed, ie concave area of advantage, eg in bottles, cups or the like.
cylindrical and / or convex shell sections see US 4,923,557 or EP 0 675 806 B1). These items may be rigid or compliant when labeling, depending on the material (glass, metal, plastic, cardboard).
a second Leimwerk can be applied to produce adhesive zones in the region of the label edge lower cost adhesive, while the application of UV-curable adhesives near the label end edge can be done by a separate Glue.
the article to be labeled is a bottle made of plastic, glass or metal, which is intended for example for filling with drinks, food or the like.
FIG. 1 shows a bottle 1 labeled with a wrap-around label on the left hand, while the bottle 1 'shown in the center of the illustration shows the contour of the same bottle in the label-free state.
Shown on the right hand side is a rectangular label blank 3, which is preferably provided by separating from a label tape.
the lateral surface of the bottle 1 has an upper shell portion 2a, to which a tapered shoulder portion 2d in the direction of the bottle mouth followed. Further, the lateral surface has a lower shell portion 2b, followed by a in the direction of the bottle bottom tapered formed skirt portion 2e followed.
the shell sections 2a and 2b may be cylindrical, ie have an extension along the axis of the bottle, or areas with a convex, convex surface with a maximum diameter.
a radially inwardly formed portion 2c which extends in the illustrated embodiment over the entire circumference of the bottle 1 'and is concave.
the bottle 1 'thus has a rotationally symmetrical outer contour to the bottle longitudinal axis.
the wrap-around label 3 which consists of a shrinkable material, has a length extending from the label leading edge 3a to the label trailing edge 3b, which is greater than the maximum bottle circumference in the region of the upper and lower jacket sections 2a and 2b, so that the label trailing edge 3b after a complete Winding the label 3 on the bottle 1 'overlaps the label leading edge 3a in the circumferential direction.
an adhesive zone 4b preferably extending over the entire label height, which may for example be in the form of a continuous hot glue strip.
Hot glue for use, which is curable by UV irradiation.
adhesive zones 4a which are preferably assigned to the upper and lower shell portion 2a, 2b of the bottle in terms of height on the label.
a UV-curable hot glue can be used.
a lower quality adhesive, in particular a conventional hot glue can be sufficient for this purpose.
the shrinkable wrap-around label 3 has air outlet openings 5 which, in terms of height, are assigned approximately radially to the radially inward-shaped region 2c of the bottle 1 'and, for example, in the form of a perforation line running parallel to the label longitudinal edges.
These air outlet openings may be formed as small holes or elongated slots in the label material, which are barely perceptible from the outside with the naked eye.
the wrap-around label 3 is attached at least temporarily with the adhesive zones 4a and completely wound by subsequent rotation of the bottle 1 'about its vertical axis to overlap the front and rear edge of the label. After this winding process, the wrap-around label 3 not only covers the radially inward-shaped portion 2c but also portions of the skirt portions 2d and 2e.
the permanent crosslinking of the adhesive takes place when using a curable hot glue, even before a shrink treatment of the label 3 for application to the bottle contour is started.
the shrinking process is carried out by a heat treatment, for. B. by exposure to hot air, steam or infrared radiation.
the label material contracts in the radial direction to the bottle casing surface, wherein the radially trapped region 2c between the lateral surface of the bottle and the back of the wrap-around label 3 trapped air can escape through the aforementioned air outlet openings 5 to the outside, so that a bubble-free application of the label material is ensured to the bottle contour.
FIG. 2 shows a schematic top view of a labeling machine which is suitable for the above-described labeling, which enables a continuously high-performance application of wrap-around labels 3 on bottles 1 'continuously fed in a single-lane series.
the bottles have a feed conveyor 24, an inlet star wheel 25 with upstream Einteilschnecke 23, a guide arc 22, a carousel 6 with a plurality of uniformly spaced on a common pitch circle turntables 7, a discharge star wheel 8 and a discharge conveyor 9, which by a UV Tunnel 10 and a shrink tunnel 11 passes.
the bottles are moving through the machine transport elements speed and position synchronous with each other continuously drivable.
a labeling unit 12 for applying wrap-around labels 3 made of heat-shrinkable plastic film.
the labeling unit 12 has two label roll receptacles 14 with an intermediate splicing station 15, a cutting unit 16, at least one gluing station 17, preferably a further gluing station 26, and a vacuum cylinder 18 for transferring a pre-cut label 3 glued to its leading and trailing edge a passing bottle 1 '.
the labeling has a seen in the tape running direction between the splicing station 15 and the cutting unit 16 perforating 20, which consists for example of a equipped with needles perforating and a counter roll.
the plastic film strip is fed to the cutting unit 16 by one of the two label tape rolls in a controlled strip take-off in cooperation with a print image or a marking-recognizing sensor so that a rectangular label blank having a length corresponding to the cylindrical shell circumference of the bottle 1 (with oversize) separated in the correct position to the printed image is passed to the vacuum cylinder 18, which then passes the wrap-around label 3 with the back facing outward on the glue roller of the gluing station 17 and possibly also on the glue roller of a further gluing station 26.
the wrap-around label 3 receives in the region of its trailing edge 3b a glue application of UV-curable hot glue, which is preferably applied according to the form shown in Fig. 1, and possibly also in the leading edge 3a, but this one by the second Glue roller 26 can be applied conventional applicator glue.
the label leading edge 3a is then brought to the lateral surfaces 2a and 2b of the bottle 1 ', adhered to the associated glue zones 4a and in the further course by a rotation of the bottle 1' caused by the turntable 7 fully wound around its vertical axis, the label trailing edge 3b after completion the rotation overlaps the label leading edge 3a and is adhered to the glue zone 4b on the outside thereof.
the described process takes place during a continuous forward movement of the carousel 6.
the labeled bottle 1 After passing through the labeling unit 12 and after completion of the winding process, the labeled bottle 1 reaches the outlet starwheel 8 in the further course and is transferred to the outlet conveyor 9.
the outlet conveyor 9 transports the bottle 1 first through the UV tunnel 10, which brings about intense crosslinking and curing of the hot glue by UV irradiation, before the thermal loading of the shrinkable plastic label in the shrink tunnel 11 begins. Due to the UV treatment, the hot glue is temperature-resistant. A bursting of the fürlappungsverklebung during the shrinking treatment is reliably prevented in this way.
the shrink treatment can be designed so that the upper and lower edge of the label before the middle label area is subjected to heat. It is possibly a local heat treatment for shrinking with appropriately positioned nozzles or heat radiators conceivable so that the voltage applied during winding of a label already on the lateral surface label areas need not be shrunk.
the described innovation is also applicable to articles having a plurality of radially inwardly formed regions in the lateral surface.
