Definitions
- the present invention relates to a portable labeling machine intended to print selected characters on labels and to stick these on articles intended for sale.
- Certain known machines suitable for this function and as defined in the preamble of claim 1, include a housing provided with a handling handle, a control lever located under the handle, a printing device connected to the lever for printing at each pulling of the latter of the characters chosen on a label of a continuous strip consisting of a series of self-adhesive labels carried by a common support strip, a step-by-step drive device for said continuous strip, connected also to the control lever to cause, with each release of the latter, the advancement of said continuous strip by a step corresponding to the length of a label along an internal circuit comprising a hairpin curve forming a separation edge after which each printed label is at least partially separated from the support strip and placed under a pressure roller carried by the housing, towards the outside of the latter, for r allow it to be fixed by adhesive pressure on the article to be labeled, and a device for bending the label, intended to hold it to prevent it from falling after its separation from the support strip and before it is bonded by pressure, which device bending device comprises two bending guide
- the labels On the label-carrying support strip, generally consisting of a ribbon with an icy or paraffinized surface, the labels form a continuous series, each of them separated from the previous one by a cutting line, the depth of which must be sufficiently precise for both preserving the existence of a “glue bridge which should help to maintain it before bonding, and facilitate its removal after bonding.
- a device for bending the printed label is provided to prevent it from breaking and bending around the separation edge instead of coming off gradually from the backing strip.
- This bending device is installed on the separation edge and consists of two bending guides extended transversely, one above and the other below the exit path of the printed label, the below being constituted by the very structure of the separation edge, these two guides forming between them the envelope of a compulsory curvilinear passage for arching the label parallel to the direction of its movement and on the side opposite to the pressure roller.
- This arrangement means that the printed label, as it advances over the separation edge can no longer risk bending around it, due to its camber.
- this device is constituted by the association of two guide elements, namely, a longitudinal guide for change whose rear end covers the separation edge and whose front end extends in front thereof in the direction of the pressure roller, and a support roller located under this guide substantially at the level of its inflection zone.
- This assembly has the function of arching the label around the support roller, perpendicular to the direction of its movement, as soon as it leaves the separation edge. Even detached from the support strip and from the following label, the printed label is thus held between the longitudinal guide for changing direction and the support roller by its own elasticity.
- this design requires the addition of an outlet guide in order to prevent the rearward leakage of the label by tilting around the support roller, this outlet guide being constituted by an inclined wall arranged on the bottom side of the label and facing the backing roller.
- this outlet guide being constituted by an inclined wall arranged on the bottom side of the label and facing the backing roller.
- the length of the guide and its degree of change in direction change must be adapted each time to the different lengths of labels used to ensure with certainty the desired effect. This last restriction prohibits in practice the use of labels of different lengths on the same labeling machine.
- a label guiding device described in document FR-A-2 050 034, specially designed for very long labels.
- This device is installed at the exit of the separation edge of a labeling machine for a different purpose, that of preventing the long label from sagging and hanging by its own weight.
- This device consists of elements arranged in opposition on either side of the label and intended to curl the latter in a direction perpendicular to its plane, that is to say in fact arching it in the direction of its length to give it thus artificially a rigidity which it does not have by itself in this direction.
- a camber thus produced can be of small amplitude to sufficiently stiffen the label, but it cannot in itself ensure without drawbacks the maintenance of a label detached from its support strip before its installation, to solve the aforementioned problem posed by the machines to label portable known type of that of the invention. It would therefore be necessary to give the longitudinal camber thus produced a large amplitude incompatible with the installation system using a pressure roller. Indeed, at the time of the pressing of this roll, the label being bent may crease or crease or even move transversely under this roll before the final impact, phenomena detrimental to the sharpness of the inscriptions and the precision of the installation.
- the object of the invention is to maintain a label detached from its support strip before it is installed by a method of arching devoid of the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the portable labeling machine is characterized in that the two guide elements are shaped to arch the label, in a manner known per se, parallel to the direction of its movement and on the side opposite to the roll. -pressor, and in that said pressure roller is arranged so as to have a contact generator with the label located at the highest level of a plane tangent to the arched part of the label, so that the label is initially cambered gradually by the two guide elements then, when it comes into contact with the pressure roller, its two edges raised by the initial camber are pushed back by the pressure roller until the part located directly against the rou leau-presseu r.
- the portable labeling machine shown as a whole in FIG. 1 comprises a box 1 provided with a handling handle 2, with a control lever 3 connected on the one hand to a printing device 4 intended to print characters chosen on a label of a continuous strip 6 of labels each time the control lever 3 is pulled, and on the other hand to a step-by-step drive device 7 of the continuous strip 6 for advancing the latter by one not corresponding to the length of a label each time the control lever is released 3.
- the continuous strip of labels 6 is constituted in the usual way by a series of self-adhesive labels carried by a support strip 8, glazed or parafinished, coming from a roller 9 housed in the upper part of the case 1.
- the circuit of the continuous strip of labels 6 passes through a printing table 10 situated opposite the printing device 4 and on which the typing of the characters chosen on a label takes place and at the end of which this circuit forms a hairpin outline bounded by a separation edge 11.
- the printed label 5 the rigidity of which is greater than that of the support strip 8 becomes progressively detached, as it advances, and goes under a pressure roller 12 carried by the housing 1, towards the outside of the latter, to be glued by pressure of the machine to the article to be labeled, passing through the bending device which characterizes the invention, marked 13, described later.
- the support strip 8 stripped of these labels is engaged in the drive device 7 which is moved back and forth with each press - release of the control lever 3 and at the rear of which this support strip 8 is rejected towards the outside.
- the striking and withdrawal movements of the printing device 4 and back and forth of the driving device 7 are obtained by a mechanism with levers 14, 15, 16 and with arming springs 17 and return 18 and 19 of the conventional type with power control and uniform pressure.
- the bending device 13 of the printed label 5, detailed in FIGS. 2 and 3 is intended to prevent it from falling before bonding in the event of its connections being broken with the following label and / or with the support strip 8 which have been described at the beginning of the description, comprises three elements, one of which is constituted by the pressing roller 12 itself and the other two by two bending guides 20 and 21 extended transversely and in opposition, one 20 to above and the other 21 below its exit path, between the separation edge 11 and the pressure roller 12.
- the upper guide 20, fixed, is part of the structure of a support 22 in which the presser roller 12 is mounted and the lower guide 21, rotary, consists of a cylinder mounted on a shaft 23 carried by this support.
- These two guides have complementary camber profiles, the relief of which consists here of three guide ribs 24, 25 and 26, the first two of which in the form of rods of revolution 24 and 25 are carried by the lower cylindrical guide 21 and the third of which 26 , is carried by the upper guide 20, midway between the first two 24 and 25.
- the rotary mounting of the lower guide 21 carrying the first two ribs 24 and 25 also contributes to reducing this resistance.
- the rib 26 of the upper guide 20 has an inclined edge 28 so as to create in combination with the shape of revolution of the first two ribs 24 and 25 of the lower rotary guide, a flared entry 29 which has the effect of making the formation of the camber on the label, as well as to center the latter on the entrance to the required passage.
- the pressure roller 12 is arranged to so as to substantially tangent this direction, that is to say, as illustrated by FIGS. 4 and 5, so that its contact generator G with the label 5 is substantially at the level of a plane T tangent to the arched part B of this label.
- the pressure roller 12 will be more or less lowered with respect to the above-mentioned plane T in order to ensure the flattening of the label. It follows from this teaching that the relative position of the pressure roller with respect to the label illustrated by the drawing constitutes the upper limit above which the flattening of the label can no longer be ensured.
- this opposition can be increased by the very structure of the support 22.
- the bearing structure 30 of the guide 20 on which is projecting the guide rib 26, in the form of a flat wall inclined substantially in the direction of this rib can be extended over part of the width of the label and up to the rear limit of this rib, on the edge side separation 11, as shown elsewhere in the drawing, so that the raised edges of the label come into contact with this supporting structure 30 when the required flattening force is greater than the retention by the ribs alone 24, 25 and 26.
- the assembly of the presser roller 12 and the two bending guides 20 and 21 in a common support 22 is advantageous in that it is thus possible to provide various assemblies finely preset according to the different mechanical characteristics of the labels used, but this type of assembly is not essential. Both guides 20 and 21 can be mounted separately from the pressure roller 12.
- camber profiles of the two guides can be obtained, in variants, by fixed curvilinear walls or else by solids of revolution with curvilinear generators, mounted in rotation like the lower guide 21, or even by the combination of a curvilinear wall fixed with a rotating cylinder with curvilinear generators.
- the camber can be multiple depending on the number of inflections given to the camber profiles of the two guides. In particular, in the example given, the number of ribs will be increased when this effect is sought.
