Embodiment Construction

[0039] A device, designated collectively by 1 in the figures, is used for labeling containers 2 , in particular bottles, and is preferably designed as a rotary labeling machine.

[0040] Furthermore, the device 1 interacts in a manner known to those skilled in the art, inter alia, with a rotor 4 driven in rotation about the vertical machine axis MA in the direction of the arrow A (in clockwise direction), however, said rotor It is not an integral part of the device 1 and the rotor has a plurality of container holders 5 in the form of rotating disks on its circumference.

[0041] On the rotating disk 5 , during the labeling operation, the containers 2 are accordingly arranged upright (that is to say with their container vertical axes oriented parallel or substantially parallel to the machine axis MA in the vertical direction). Containers 2 to be labeled are fed to the rotor 4 at a container inlet (not shown) and leave the rotor at a container outlet (likewise not shown) after l...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for labelling containers (2). The key aspect according to the invention lies in providing a device for labelling containers, said device comprising a label strip feedunit (6) and at least one vacuum drum unit (7), and in which device the label strip feed unit is designed to feed at least one label strip (8) comprising multiple individual labels (8.1) to the at least one vacuum drum unit. The label strip feed unit comprises at least one first vacuum cylinder (9) rotating about a cylinder vertical axis. A partial length of the label strip comes to rest againstthe outer lateral surface of said cylinder, at least over part of the circumference thereof, and is held there under the action of a vacuum. The label strip feed unit comprises at least one cutting apparatus (10) for separating the label strip into individual labels. The at least one vacuum drum unit is designed to receive the individual labels provided from the first vacuum cylinder, to hold thereceived individual labels on the outer lateral surface of the vacuum drum unit, and to transport said labels in the conveying direction, in each case by application of a vacuum. At least one first and second vacuum-generating apparatus (20, 30) are provided, the first vacuum-generating apparatus (20) being designed to provide a vacuum at least at the vacuum drum unit (7) and the second vacuum-generating apparatus (30) being designed to provide a vacuum at least at the first vacuum cylinder (9).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for labeling containers according to the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Label feeding devices are already known to those skilled in the art in a wide variety of embodiment variants from the prior art. In this case, a continuously running label strip is usually provided by a label strip supply. A plurality of labels are attached together on a continuously running label web, wherein individual labels are formed from the label web by cutting. The label strip is guided part-length by at least one first transport device (preferably a vacuum cylinder) and at least one second transport device (preferably a vacuum roller). In this case, the transport device is therefore designed as a rotationally driven transport roller in order to carry out a deflection, for example an S-shaped deflection, of the label strip. [0003] In addition, the transport device is designed to generate a holding or fixing force o...
