Multifunctional unit for serial production of nameplates

Abstract

The invention relates to a multifunctional device for manufacturing marking labels (10), especially marking labels (10) for terminal blocks, which comprises a printing device, a separating device and / or a perforating device. Furthermore, the multifunctional device according to the invention comprises a feeding unit for unlabelled marking labels (10) from a finite or endless product and a receiving element (12) in which the marking labels (10) can be fixed as they pass the printing device, the separating device and / or the perforating device, wherein the marking labels (10) comprise a top side (14) that is to be printed and a bottom side (16) disposed opposite of the top side (14), the bottom side (16) having a profile (18). The multifunctional device according to the invention is characterized in that the receiving element (12) has a recess (20) in which the marking labels (10) with the profile (18) can be fixed when passing the printing device, the separating device and / or the perforating device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a multifunctional device for batch production of nameplates, in particular to nameplates for junction boxes. The invention also relates to a method for the mass production of nameplates. Background technique [0002] Nameplates of the type described above are often used to individually identify or denote junction boxes, standard components and wiring arrangements. For identification purposes, each individual terminal box is usually assigned a nameplate which can be connected to the corresponding terminal box. The nameplate can consist of a simple label plate which is embedded in a corresponding plate groove. Of course, the name plate can also be provided with a writing board, which has, on its underside, formations, for example as fastening legs, for fixing the writing board in corresponding board slots. However, such forming parts complicate mass production, that is to say, the complexity lies in the proprietary compression...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, such forming parts complicate mass production, that is to say, the complexity lies in the proprietary compression properties, and the separation properties and / or the punching properties of the nameplate in the required length, because due to the Formed parts make it difficult to fix the nameplate in a defined position

In particular, the separation and perforation of the nameplate is difficult with the profiled part, since relatively high forces are usually generated on the nameplate during such a process, so that the nameplate tends to slip due to the formed part, which in turn leads to an untidy separation and punch

In addition, the profile is damaged by the relatively high forces that occur during the separation or perforation, so that the nameplate can no longer serve, for example, for the identification of the terminal box

[0003] Moreover, it is only known so far that the embossing and separation of the nameplates of the devices arranged separately from each other can be realized, which causes consumption of the production process
