Definitions
- the invention relates to a technique for marking a prolate object, for example a conductor.
- the invention relates to a device and a method for inserting a prolate object, for example a conductor, into a piece of tubing that is open at least at the end, in order to identify the prolate object.
- Label printers are conventionally used to identify electrical conductors, for example, which print a label that then has to be mounted on the conductor by manual work after it has been printed.
- Document US 2003/146943 A1 describes a printer that alternately prints and cuts a label.
- Document US 2004/0211522 A1 describes a machine that wraps a pre-printed wrap around label on a spindle reel around a conductor.
- a monolithic machine for printing and applying wrap-around labels is known from document US 2008/0073023 A1.
- the conventional devices can only print certain labels and if an automated application is integrated, then no other printing applications are possible with such a device.
- a user has to manually insert the conductor to be marked into the device and visually check the position of the inserted conductor.
- a demonstration video published by Brady, the manufacturer of the Wraptor A6500 printer shows a manual insertion movement transverse to the longitudinal direction of the conductor, after which the label is wrapped around a position of the conductor determined by the device.
- the winding process is usually initiated manually or by the user using a foot switch.
- the document WO 1999/56271 A1 describes the opening of a printed shrink tube in order to slide it onto a conductor.
- the tube does not open but upper and lower tube halves bulge in the same direction.
- the document WO 2021/069416 A1 describes a device that cuts off a printed shrink tube and opens it at least at the cut ends by deforming the shrink tube transversely to its longitudinal direction by means of opening rollers.
- the opening rollers are arranged on opposite sides of a guide corridor, the width of which can be adjusted in that the opening rollers are mounted on carriages that can be moved transversely.
