Problems solved by technology

Especially in the case of holding and guiding the container at the side walls and / or at the bottom, manufacturing-induced tolerances of the container cross-section have to be taken into account, whereby labeling becomes less accurate and / or technically more complex

Embodiment Construction

[0037] Such as Figure 1A As can be seen, the first embodiment 1 of the device according to the invention comprises a labeling wheel 2 on which a plurality of labeling stations 3 running around the labeling wheel 2 are arranged evenly distributed over the circumference. These labeling stations each comprise a holding device 4 for holding the container 5 to be labeled in an open-side section 5 a of the container 5 , for example at a carrier ring 5 b arranged on the container 5 . Also shown is a bottom-side section 5c of the container 5 as well as a side wall 5d of this container. Furthermore, the labeling station 3 comprises a spreading device 6 with spreader segments 6a distributed over the periphery and movable apart from one another for receiving and spreading apart label sleeves 7 dispensed by preferably immobile labels. The device 8 is transferred to the expansion device 6. The label sleeve 7 is detached, for example, in a known manner by a label tube 7 a and is dropped o...

Abstract

The labeling device (1) comprises a retaining unit (4) used for holding the mouth-side portion (5a) of the container (5), and a spreading device (6) for receiving and spreading the label sleeves. A positioning unit (11) sets the labeling position of the retaining unit and / or the spreading device, such that the label sleeves are positioned on each of the containers, through the relative movement of the label sleeves by the bottom portion (5c) of the container towards the mouth-side portion of the container. An independent claim is included for a method for labeling containers with label sleeves.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an apparatus and method for labeling containers with label sleeves. Background technique [0002] Containers, such as beverage bottles, can additionally be labeled by pulling the elastic film sleeve over the container shell. For this purpose, WO 2008 / 076718 describes a device for applying highly elastic label sleeves, in which a plurality of spreading fingers running substantially parallel to each other and grouped around a central gap on the periphery are used, so that The label sleeve is expanded in such a way that the container with the opening to be labeled can first be pushed into the label sleeve from below. The container can then be pulled out from the expansion point upwards by means of the engagement device in the region of the opening together with the pulled-on label. In this case, the engaging device rotates jointly with the spreading fingers around the labeling wheel, so that the labeled containers can be...
