- Roller 30 is connected to and positively controllably intermittently driven by a suitably energized drive motor M by way of an electrically controlled clutch and brake assembly C.
- Roller 30 is connected to the input shaft of clutch assembly C, the
- Printing assembly 12 includes a suitably supported vertical mounting plate 39 located within the path traversed by tape T around guide rolls 23, 24 and 26 and a stationary platen 40 supported rearwardly of a line extending tangentially between the rear surfaces of vertically spaced rollers 24 and 26, and having a forwardly directed front face substantially lying along said tangential line.
- a vertical toggle lever 41 is mounted, by means of a pivot pin 42, to the upper rear section of plate 39 for rocking about a transverse axis intermediate the ends of the lever.
- a short leg 43 Directed rearwardly and integrally formed with lever 41 is a short leg 43 which terminates in a depending toe 44.
- a suitably inked printing platen 46 is mounted on the lower rear face of toe 46 in confronting engagement with stationary platen 40 and sandwiching label-carrying tape T therebetween when lever 41 is swung to its clockwise print position.
- a helical tension spring 47 is connected between a stationary pin 48 located on plate 39 rearwardly and at about the level of the pivot pin 42 and a pin mounted on and intermediate the ends of lever 41 and forward of pivot pin 42.
- lever 41 and platen-carrying toe 44 are alternately urged to an advanced print position or a retracted position by spring 47 as lever 41 is rocked to either side of its equilibrium position.
- platen 46 In order to advance and retract platen 46 there is provided a pair of longitudinally extending upper and lower solenoids 50 and 51 respectively, which are electrically connected to the output of control network 13 and are alternately energized thereby.
- the upper or print solenoid 50 includes a longitudinally movable armature which is coupled by a rod 52 to the upper end of lever 41, and the lower or retract solenoid 51 likewise includes a longitudinally movable armature which is coupled by a rod 53 to the lower end of lever 41.
- bracket plates 56 Directed upwardly from the side edges of guide arm 17 are a pair of transversely spaced vertical bracket plates 56 which support by and between their upper trailing corners a transversely extending horizontal axle 57. Swingably mounted on axle 57 are a pair of parallel, forwardly downwardly inclined transversely spaced bracket arms 58 of parallelogram configuration substantially abutting the inner faces of bracket plates 56.
- the upper trailing corners of bracket arms 58 are rigidly joined by a transversely extending sleeve 59 which rotatably engages axle 57.
- the bottom edges of bracket arms 58 are parallel to and at approximately the level of or shortly above the top face of guide arm 17 when the bracket member is in its lower operable position, as illustrated in the drawings.
- a suitable latching mechanism is provided for selectively locking the bracket member in its operative position or for releasing it for swinging about axle 57 to a raised position to permit the threading of the apparatu's with label-carrying tape T.
- a transversely extending label-applying pressure roller 60 is supported by and between the lower forward corners of bracket arms 58 and has a bottom periphery forward of and below separating edge 18.
- a pair of substantially triangular, vertical, parallel suitably joined mounting plates 61 is positioned between bracket arms 58, and is supported thereon for swinging about the trailing upper corners of the plates 61 by a transverse axle 63 journalled between the bracket arms.
- a transverse axle 64 is supported by and between the lower corners of the mounting plates 61 and rotatably carries a label-sensing star wheel 65 above and shortly rearwardly of separator edge 18.
- Star wheel 65 includes a plurality 4., y of cireumferentially spaced teeth 66 having relatively sharp rear faces 67 almost radial relative to the axis of the wheel.
- a switch 68 of the microswitch type including a casing 69 having a rearwardly directed resilient actuating arm 70 connected at its leading end to the leading section of casing 69.
- Actuating arm 70 bears on a switch actuating plunger 71 and is provided at its trailing free end with 0. depending bracket 72 which supports a follower comprising roller 73 engaging the periphery of star wheel '65.
- Switch -68 is normally open, with arm 70 in its lowered position and the follower 73 registering with the space between successive star wheel teeth 66.
- Circuit network 13 is such as to deenergize clutch C, brake the drive to roller 30 and energize print solenoid 50 with the closing of the switch 68.
- a sensing switch 74 is provided with an actuating arm 76 disposed in the path of the advancing packages or articles A, forward of applicator roller 60, and is electrically connected to control circuit 13.
- the control network 13 functions so that upon actuation of switch 74 solenoid 51 is actuated and clutch C is energized for an interval a little more than sufficient to advance tape T and the leading label L thereon and to rotate the star wheel 65 past its position of actuation of the switch 68, the clutch C remaining energized until the switch 68 is actuated.
- the control network disclosed in the copending patent application Ser. No. 365,658, filed May 7, 1964 in the name of Herbert W. Marano is highly suitable for use as the network 13.
- solenoid 51 is energized to retract platen 46 and the clutch C is energized to drive roller 30 and advance tape T along the upper face of guide arm 17 around separator edge 18 and thence rearwardly to be taken up.
- the sharp rearward movement of the tape around edge 18 detaches the forward edge of the label from tape T and advances it in cantilevered fashion to the underface of roller 60 which presses it into adherent engagement with the top face of an advancing package or article A.
- star wheel 65 With the advance of a leading label L, star wheel 65 rotates counterclockwise until the two lowermost teeth 66 engage the upper surface of the label and slide therealong, follower 73 engaging an intertooth recess to effect the lowering of arm 70 and deactuating switch 68.
- Tape T thus advances until the front edge of the next successive label L engages the trailing tooth rear face 67 to rotate star wheel 65 to a position wherein switch 68 is actuated, to deenergize clutch C and to stop the advance of the tape and to energize solenoid 50.
- the apparatus is now in a condition to repeat the above cycle.
- a label-applying apparatus comprising a longitudinally extending applicator arm terminating in a leading transverse separator edge, means for advancing a labelcarrying tape forwardly along the upper face of said arm and about said separator edge and thence rearwardly, a support member mounted by and above said applicator arm and swin'gable about a transverse axis, a star wheel with radially inclined teeth rotatable about a transverse axis carried by said support member and movable and normally urged therewith toward said applicator arm upper face, a bottom pair of said teeth being adapted to rest on said guide arm upper face, and the trailing of said pair of teeth having an upwardly forwardly directed rear face, a follower bearing on the periphery of said star wheel, and an electric switch mounted on said support member and responsive to said follower.
- the label applying apparatus of claim 1 including a bracket arm supported by said applicator arm and projecting forwardly of said separator edge and a transversely extending wiper member supported by the free end of said bracket arm forward of said separator edge,
