Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention This invention relates to a label peeling device for peeling a label from a roll of backing paper.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a printer section and a label peeling body are provided in the path of pulling out a liner wound into a roll, and the liner pulled out by a feed roller is bent at an acute angle by the label peeling body, and the label is removed at this bending part. There are products that can be peeled off from the backing paper and affixed to products, etc. In addition, in order to align the two sides of the label removable body bordering on the edge that bends the backing paper with the feeding direction of the backing paper, both end faces are connected to opposite side plates with screws, and the end faces are connected to stoppers set upright on these side plates. The outer surface around the axis of the label peeling body is abutted, thereby determining the position of the label peeling body in the rotating direction, and the screw is tightened to fix the label peeling body.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, as the remaining amount of the backing paper decreases, the winding diameter becomes smaller, so the label attached to the backing paper in this area becomes curly and curved. Therefore, the label on the label peeling body is curved in the direction of bending of the mount while being peeled off, which poses a problem in that it becomes difficult to attach the label to a product or the like. This tendency is particularly strong for horizontally long labels. For example, labels have recently been used to display titles on cassette tapes, but these labels are elongated and curved, making it difficult to position them when pasting them on a cassette tape case.

Means for Solving the Problem A holding part is provided to hold a long backing paper on which a large number of labels are pasted and wound into a roll, and a label peeling body is provided that bends the backing paper pulled out from the holding part. and screws are provided for connecting side plates that are arranged on the same axis and face each other and both ends of the label peeling body such that the rotation angle can be freely adjusted; A stopper that contacts the outer surface is fixedly provided, a label presser having a contact portion that contacts the label 1L7- on the label peeling body is provided perpendicularly to the label feeding direction, and the label presser is attached to the stopper. A fixing part is provided that is brought into contact and fixed.

Therefore, the contact portion of the label presser is brought into contact with the curled label to correct the curling of the label. Furthermore, the label presser can be attached and detached by releasing it from the fixing part. Further, a stopper for positioning the label peeling body in the rotating direction is used, and the label presser is maintained in a state in contact with the stopper by the fixing portion for positioning.

Example An embodiment of this invention will be described based on the drawings.

A shaft-shaped holding part 3 for rotatably holding a roll-wound mount 2 is installed on the opposing side plates 1, and a guide roller 4, a platen 5, a feed roller 6,
A pinch roller 7 is rotatably provided. Further, a thermal head 8 is attached to the side plate 1.

Next, a unit 1o having a horizontally long label peeling body 9 is provided. This unit 10 includes a label peeling body 9
It consists of a bell holder 11 parallel to the label peeling body 9, and a plate spring 13 which is a fixing part that is fixed to the label holder 11 by the force of a coil spring 12. The label presser 11 is shaped like a round bar, and a contact portion 15 is formed on the lower outer periphery of the label presser 11 so that the label 14 attached to the mount 2 comes into contact with the label 14 in a line contact state. In addition, a label peeling body 9 and a label presser 1 are also provided.
A spacer 16 is fixed to the top surface of the end of the label peeling body 9 to define a gap in the center between the label peeling body 9 and the label peeling body 9 .

Furthermore, base portions 17 are integrally formed at both ends of the label peeling body 9, and screws 18 for holding the plate springs 13 in a vertically movable manner and for holding the coil springs 12 are screwed into these base portions 17. Furthermore, a pin 19 is erected which is loosely fitted to the end of the plate spring 13 to prevent the plate spring 13 from turning.

Such a unit 1o is fixed by tightening both ends of the label peeling body 9 to the side plate 1 with one screw 20, but the unit 10 can be rotated around these screws 20 located on the same axis. A fixed shaft 21, which is a stopper, is coaxially provided on the inner surface of the side plate 1.
The unit 10 is positioned and fixed by tightening the screws 20 while maintaining the state in which the upper surfaces of both ends of the label peeling body 9 and the outer peripheries of both ends of the label presser foot 11 are in contact with each other.

In such a configuration, printing on the label 14 is performed by transferring ink (not shown) from an ink ribbon using the thermal head 14. Then, when the platen 5 and the feed roller 6 are rotated counterclockwise and the mount 2 is pulled out from the holding section 3 while being bent by the label peeling member 9, the stiff label 14 is peeled off from the mount 2. Mount 2
When the winding diameter of the label 14 becomes smaller, the label 14 attached to the mount 2 in this area tends to curl, but it is straightened in the process of contacting the label presser 11 on the label peeling body 9. At this time, the label presser foot 11 receives resistance from the strong label 14, but it presses the label 14 in a line contact state and can also retract the plate spring 13 upward, so the label presser foot 11
It does not obstruct the passage of 4. The pressure of the plate spring 13 against the resistance of the label 14 can be freely adjusted by turning the screw 18 and varying the strength of the coil spring 12.

Therefore, even when the horizontally elongated label 14 is attached to the narrow side surface of the cassette tape case 22, the curl of the label 14 is corrected, so that the label 14 can be attached at the correct position.

Further, the label peeling body 9 is positioned and fixed by loosening the screw 2o, rotating about the screw 20 as a fulcrum, and tightening the screw 20 while maintaining the state in which it contacts the fixed shaft 21. Thereby, the two surfaces bordering the edge of the label peeling body 9 can be aligned with the running direction of the mount 2.

Furthermore, the label presser 11 can be removed with one touch by bending the plate spring 13 upward. As a result, the label presser 1 is passed from the back side of the label 14 through the mount 2.
The adhesive attached to the label 1 can be cleanly and reliably cleaned, and the surface of the label 14 can be prevented from becoming dirty. After cleaning, the label presser 11 can be attached with one touch by bending the plate spring 13 upward. In this case, the label presser 11 is attached to the label peeling body 9 by the spacer 16.
A gap is set with respect to the running direction of the mount 2, and the fixed shaft 21 positions the mount 2 in the running direction.

In the embodiment, the label peeling body 9 and the label presser 11
The spacer 16 was used to set the gap in the center between the mount 2 and the label 14 to be slightly larger than the sum of the thickness of the mount 2 and the thickness of the label 14. 9 or the end of the label presser 11 may be formed integrally.

Alternatively, the same objective can be achieved by forming a locking portion on the fixed shaft 21 that restricts the movement of the label presser 11 in the direction toward and away from the label peeling body 9.

Alternatively, by engaging the free end of the plate spring 13 with the label presser 11, the base of the plate spring 13 is fixed and the coil spring 12 is omitted, or instead of the plate spring 13, a non-elastic plate can be used as a coil. It may be biased by a spring 12. Even in the case of chewing, the label presser 11 can be elastically pressed against the spacer 16 and the fixed shaft 21.

Furthermore, in order to press the label 14 in a line contact state,
It is also possible to use a rod-shaped label presser with a polygonal cross-section to press the label 14 using the ridge lines of the corners.

Effects of the Invention Since the present invention is configured as described above, it is possible to correct the curling of the label by bringing the contact part of the label presser into contact with the curling label, and therefore automatically remove the label that has peeled off from the backing paper. Even when the label is pasted on the label, it can be pasted in the correct position, and the label holder can be released and removed from the fixed part, so that the adhesive adhering to the label holder can be easily and reliably cleaned from the label. As a result, it is possible to prevent stains on the surface of the label, and furthermore, it has the effect that the position of the label presser can be determined using the stopper that determines the position of the label peeling body in the rotating direction. .
