Definitions

  • the invention relates to an assembly for feeding labels and taking up a backing ribbon in a labeling machine for pre-glued labels, in accordance with the preamble of claim 1 and as known from US 4,417,940 .
  • labeling machines perform the application, on containers of all types, of pre-glued labels which are associated with a backing ribbon that is supplied wound on reels so as to be used by the feeding assembly with which such machines are provided.
  • Such an assembly comprises a separator which is situated in the immediate vicinity of the containers to be labeled, which are conveyed by a rotating carousel or by a belt that confers a rectilinear motion to them, and which separates the individual labels from the backing ribbon to apply them on respective containers.
  • the backing ribbon now devoid of labels, must naturally be taken up so as to allow a convenient removal thereof, and the takeup devices present in the known art have various forms and among these, a very common implementation provides a roller onto which the backing ribbon is rewound.
  • This implementation however entails rather long idle times during operation, which are necessary for the operator to carry out the maneuvers to remove a reel when it has reached the intended size and to restart operation in order to form a next reel.
  • the aim of the present invention is to devise a labeling machine for pre-glued labels in which the operation of the backing ribbon takeup device occurs with idle times reduced to a minimum, so as to greatly increase the efficiency of the machine.
  • the set aim is achieved by an assembly for feeding labels and taking up a backing ribbon in a labeling machine for pre-glued labels, according to the invention, which comprises a rotating disk for supporting a reel of backing ribbon on which the pre-glued labels are applied, a separator which separates the individual labels from the backing ribbon, with subsequent transfer thereof in application to the individual containers to be labeled, a ribbon traction device, a device for taking up the backing ribbon devoid of labels with an associated device for adjusting the rotation rate thereof, characterized in that the device for taking up the backing ribbon comprises at least two rewinding rollers, which are designed to receive said ribbon and provided with means adapted to cause an alternating operation thereof.
  • the above-mentioned backing ribbon takeup device comprises means adapted to alert an operator during the alternation of the operation of the two rewinding rollers.
  • the reference numeral 1 designates a reel supported on a rotating disk 2 from which the backing ribbon of pre-glued labels is unwound that are still present, although not shown in the figure, on the portion 3a which arrives, after a series of transmissions, at a separator 4 which separates the individual labels from the backing ribbon in order to apply them to the individual containers to be labeled such as 5 and 6.
  • the containers 5, 6 are conveyed, in the embodiment shown, by the rotating carousel 7, but they could equally well be handled by a conveyor belt adapted to provide them with a rectilinear motion.
  • the portion 3b of the backing ribbon now devoid of labels, leaves the separator 4 and arrives at a traction device 8 and reaches a takeup device which will now be described in detail and the rotation rate of which is regulated by the device designated with 9.
  • the backing ribbon takeup device comprises at least two rewinding rollers 10 and 11, advantageously provided with associated support platters 10a, 11 a, and conveniently provided with means for locking the end of the belt 10b, 11b.
  • Each one of the rewinding rollers 10 and 11 is provided with a photocell, not shown in the figure, which is capable of detecting, by reading through a small hole such as 11c in the platter 11a, when the reel of ribbon has reached the intended size during rewinding, and consequently of causing the emission of an alert to the assigned operator.
  • the reference numeral 12 designates a manually actuated selector which is adapted to actuate the alternation of operation of the two rewinding rollers 10 and 11.
  • the photocell fitted to the rewinding roller 10 has detected that the reel of ribbon designated with 13 wound on the rewinding roller 10 has reached the maximum intended size, and consequently has commanded the emission of an alert signal to the assigned operator.
  • the operator after stopping the machine and cutting the backing ribbon at the tail end 13a, has fixed the cut-off end of the backing ribbon to the rewinding roller 11, has actuated the selector 12 so as to change operation from the rewinding roller 10 to the rewinding roller 11, and has put the machine back in operation thus starting the formation of a reel of ribbon on the rewinding roller 11, designated with 14.
  • Figure 2 shows a different embodiment of the invention which is provided with an identical assembly for feeding labels, while the assembly for taking up the backing ribbon 3b now devoid of labels, situated downstream of the traction device 8 and provided with the device 9 for adjusting the rotation rate, still features the rewinding rollers 10 and 11 provided with respective photocells that detect reaching of the intended size by the reel of ribbon during winding, but which, differently from the first embodiment described, cause the actuation of the automatic splicing device 15, of a type that is known per se, situated upstream of the rewinding rollers 10, 11.
  • the photocell fitted to the rewinding roller 10 detects the depletion of the reel 16, and actuates the automatic splicer 15 to cut the ribbon 3b and splice it with the portion of ribbon 17 that is present on the rewinding roller 11, in this manner arranging the alternation of operation of the rewinding rollers that occurs with the stopping of the rewinding roller 10 and the starting of the rewinding roller 11.
