Problems solved by technology

Furthermore, it can happen that the container cannot be grasped and lifted correctly, so that the container remains in the spreading unit and may collide with other machine parts
Another problem is that the lifting movement when the label is handed over and the compressed air output when the power of the machine changes are not coordinated precisely enough

Embodiment Construction

[0032] Depend on figure 1 and figure 2 It can be seen that a preferred embodiment of the labeling device 1 according to the invention for applying elastic label sleeves 2 to containers 3, such as plastic bottles, comprises a labeling wheel 4 on which labeling wheels are arranged uniformly distributed along the circumference. Station 5. These labeling stations each comprise a spreading unit 6 for receiving and spreading the label sleeve 2, a positioning unit 7 for receiving and lifting the container 3 to be labeled into the spreading unit 6, and an open side for gripping the container 3 Section 3 a and extraction unit 8 for pulling container 3 out of expansion unit 6 .

[0033] figure 1 Also shown in the figure are the handling unit 9, the label dispenser 10, the inlet starwheel 11 for inputting the containers 3 to be labeled, the outlet starwheel 12 for outputting the labeled containers 3 and the Open unit 6 to supply valve group 13 for vacuum or compressed air. exist f...

Abstract

A method and a device for labelling containers with stretch sleeves are provided. The invention relates to the method and the device for labelling the containers with the stretch sleeves. The device can adjust different support speed when supporting the label sleeves and / or adjust different lifting speed when the labelled containers are pulled out from a support unit. Damage of the label sleeves and inaccurate positioning of the label sleeves on the containers can be avoided. Generation of a compression air bearing between the label sleeves and the support unit can flexibly adapt by means of electric drive control in order to improve labeling quality.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device and a method for labeling containers with elastic label sleeves. Background technique [0002] Containers such as beverage bottles can be labeled by fitting an elastic film sleeve over the side of the container. For this purpose, WO 2008 / 076718 describes a merry-go-round plant with labeling stations for applying highly elastic label sleeves, in which a plurality of Spreading fingers of the central concave group, which stretch the label sleeve to such an extent that the container to be labeled can be moved into the label sleeve from below. After the spreader fingers have been folded in, the container can be pulled out of the spreader fingers from above with the fitted label by a gripping device. The transfer of the label from the spreader finger to the container is simplified in that a cushion of compressed air is created between the spreader finger and the label sleeve during the removal of the label sleeve from the ...
