Problems solved by technology

[0008] High machine performances of more than 40,000 containers per hour cannot be handled with the above-mentioned method, and in addition only one shrink sleeve or one shrink sleeve and one label can be applied to the container with a correspondingly expensive circular rotor

Embodiment Construction

[0046] figure 1 A first embodiment of a device 1 for labeling and for applying shrink sleeves to containers 2 is shown.

[0047] The containers 2 are transported by means of an upstream conveyor belt 3 moving at an upstream speed. The flow of containers, in which the containers 2 are conveyed without spacing by the upstream conveyor belt 3 to the upstream indexing screw 4 , is spread out by the indexing screw 4 , so that a space is created between the containers 2 corresponding to the labeling machine, which is then implemented in a straight line 5 for the first separation pitch. This means that the upstream indexing screw 4 is preferably designed such that the pitch of its last flight corresponds to the first separation distance of the labeling machine 5 . The containers 2 to be labeled can thus be conveyed to the labeling machine 5 by means of the upstream indexing screw 4 at a predefined distance which is necessary for the labeling to take place.

Abstract

The invention relates to a machine for labelling containers and attaching shrink sleeves to the containers and a method for the same, the machine comprising: a labeling machine having a first pitch, wherein the labeling machine is adapted to apply labels to the containers; a conveyor belt arranged after the labeling machine which is adapted to convey containers situated thereon at a speed; and an indexing screw (8, 30) arranged after the labeling machine which is adapted to enable the containers conveyed by the conveyor belt to have a second pitch of a subsequent shrink sleeve unit (10, 17, 32, 38), wherein the shrink sleeve unit is adapted to pass shrink sleeves on the containers. The invention also relates to a method for attaching labels and / or shrink sleeves on containers under the condition of using embodiments of the machine according to the invention, and a method for attaching shrink sleeve (45) on containers (22, 46) under the condition of using the machines (21, 36).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method according to the preamble of claims 13 and 14 . Background technique [0002] DE 38 05 951 A1 discloses a method for placing a shrink sleeve on the closed end of a container, wherein the container and the tube are conveyed substantially continuously. The hose is conveyed from above at an angle, wherein the direction of conveyance of the hose has an opposite component to the direction of conveyance of the containers. The shrink sleeve is cut below the mandrel through which the shrink sleeve is unrolled when the front bottom of the tube end, viewed in the conveying direction, is already below the upper edge of the container closure end. [0003] WO 2007 / 060705 A1 describes a device for applying wrap-around labels, which are designed as shrink-wrap labels. Shrink tabs are provided for assembly heads (Applikationskopf). Here, the label is inserted into the cylindrical ho...
