A compact disc labeling device for manual application of a label to a compact disc includes an assembly having a circumferential flange with an upper flange surface, a piston, a first rod having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the label's central aperture and that extends from the upper surface of the piston, and a second rod having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the disc's central aperture and that extends from the first rod. In use, a label is placed on the...

Apparatus and process for application of pamphlets to a backing web having preprinted labels including a pamphlet applicator featuring cylindrical drive cams which propel pamphlet grasping assemblies at different speed rates to achieve optimum spacing during pamphlet application to a laminate web.

An improved labeling device of the type including a rotatable transfer drum for transferring containers onto which labels are to be affixed; an adhesive coating drum for applying an adhesive coating; and a label supply drum for first holding and then releasing labels. The improvement comprises arranging the components such that the containers carried by the rotatable container transfer drum first contact the adhesive coating drum and subsequently the adhesive coated containers while still carrie...

The labeling machine comprises means for successively depositing separate labels with their face sides outwardly on a continuously rotating suction drum, means for imprinting the labels while on the drum comprising a printing cylinder rotating about a first axis at a peripheral speed equal to that of the drum, means supporting the printing cylinder for translatory movement relative to the drum about a second axis, means for moving the supporting means about the second axis to shift the printing ...

In a labeling station for applying labels one above the other onto objects, having at least one pickup element mounted eccentrically on a rotating carrier for movement about an axis, a gripper cylinder is provided having a rotating carrier having eccentrically disposed gripping and pressing element for the upper and lower labels, which elements are tangent to the circulation path of the pickup elements approximately in synchronism. The labels are transferred by the gripping and pressing elements...

In a labeling station for applying labels one above the other onto objects, having at least one pickup element mounted essentially on a rotatable carrier for movement about an axis a gripper cylinder is provided having a rotating carrier having eccentrically disposed gripping and pressing elements for the upper and lower labels, which elements are tangent to the circulation path of the pickup elements approximately in synchronism. The labels are transferred by the gripping and pressing elements ...

A labeling station has a rotating gripper cylinder having gripper elements equally spaced therearound to define label divisions and a carrier rotating in the same sense bearing pickup elements thereon mounted for either rotary or rocking movement in a contrary sense with respect to the carrier during the label transfer. The movement is controlled such that the receiving surfaces of the pickup elements roll at least in the forward area against the gripper cylinder surface when the gripper cylinde...

A labeling device which includes a pair of spaced printing element carrying, rotatable wheels for imprinting characters on a tape. A path of travel for the tape is defined between the wheels and a mechanism is provided for feeding the tape along the path of travel. A mechanism is provided for applying pressure to the deformable arms for causing the desired imprinting of characters. A lever is pivotally mounted for operating the tape feeding mechanism and the pressure applying mechanism. An arm i...

Device for the labeling of clothes including a label printer (1) and a fastening station (12), and a device for the transfer of the labels and holding these in position for fixing that includes a guide or slide plane next to which the printer is arranged so that the labels are ejected along the guide or plane. The guide is slightly curved in the label feed out direction. An endless belt is arranged above the guide in the label feed direction so that it can press the labels against the guide brin...

The use of dimer acids with conventional hot melt adhesive polymers provide adhesives particularly useful for bottle labeling. The label, along with the adhesive, can be easily removed from the bottle during the recycling process.
