Definitions
- the present invention relates to a handling system for linerless labels and particularly relates to a cutting or bursting system for separating linerless labels with exposed adhesive on one side from a web thereof.
- a separation device for processing linerless labels from a web typically emanating from a roll of linerless label material, the web having adhesive exposed along one side and a slick surface along the opposite side.
- the mechanis of the present invention forms the label from the web by a cutting or bursting operation.
- the cut or burst position is controlled by a preprinted ti -mi-no; mark on the label web.
- the timing mark on the web controls the cut line position.
- the timing mark is used to initiate the bursting mechanism.
- the web of labels is preprinted with a timing mark and, in the case of bursting, is additionally preperforated in synchronization with the timing mark. Note that marginal punchings are not used with the label stock or with the separation mechanism to advance the web throu *geh-* the mechanism.
- the separating mechanism hereof includes a pair of infeed rolls which are maintained in pressure contact with the label web passing through the nip ofthe rolls.
- the upper roll is a high friction elastomer or grit roll for positively contacting the slick surface ofthe label web, while the lower roll has either a silicone elastomer-covered or non-stick plasma-covered surface which is non-cohesive with the adhesive side of the label web.
- the infeed rolls are driven by a first motor responsive to a controller which, upon reading the timing mark, stops the infeed rolls in position for the cutting operation.
- a pair of outfeed rolls, disposed downstream from the infeed rolls, are operated by a second motor independently of the first motor driving the infeed rolls.
- a cutting mechanism comprised of a cylinder mounting a transversely extending blade, preferably in a slight helix orientation relative to the axis of the cylinder, and mounted on one side of the web preferably in opposition to the slick upper side of the web.
- a fixed cutting blade lies preferably on the opposite side of and below the web.
- the cylinder-mounted cutting blade may rotate a full 360° to cut the web or may be oscillated between successive cuts through the web. In either case, the web is cut from one side edge to the other because of the helix configuration of the movable blade.
- a wicking roll is provided to oil the movable blade and prevent the build-up of adhesive along the blades.
- the infeed and outfeed rolls are driven in synchronism and the movable cutting blade rotates in position to effect the cut through the web from one side edge to the opposite side edge.
- the infeed and outfeed rolls are stopped in a position locating the web for a transverse cut at a predetermined longitudinal location along the web in alignment with the fixed blade.
- the infeed rolls are backed or reversed to a slight degree to break the fugitive adhesive bond of the web from the fixed blade ofthe cut-off mechanism, while the outfeed roll pair are advanced forwardly to discharge the cut label.
- both infeed and outfeed rolls may be stopped after the cut to hold the cut label in cut position and then the outfeed rolls can be programmed to rotate at a second rotational speed, effecting a clean transfer of the severed label to a receiving device and without the need for cooperation with the infeed pair of rolls.
- the cut cylinder may rotate 360°, an alternative form of the invention provides for the cut cylinder to oscillate between a home position and a cut position.
- Tn a bursting mode, and instead of a rotary pivotal cylindrical cutter roll with a cutting blade, a smooth breaker bar is used in conjunction with the perforated web.
- the outfeed rolls can be accelerated upon sensing the timing mark to effect separation of the labels along the perforations against the breaker bar.
- a separator having a pair of infeed rolls with a nip therebetween, a pair of outfeed rolls with a nip therebetween and a separating member between the pairs of rolls, a method of separating linerless labels disposed in a web wherein the web has a first surface that will not readily adhere to adhesive on a second surface thereof, comprising the steps of (a) advancing a leading portion ofthe web through the nips ofthe infeed and outfeed pairs of rolls in a first direction and past the separating member between the pairs of rolls with the second surface facing away from the separating member as the web moves in the first direction, (b) sensing tiinihg marks on the web and (c) sequentially separating the web into linerless labels by moving the separating member to engage the web in response to periodically sensing the timing marks.
- apparatus for detaching linerless labels from a web having a slippery surface coating on one side and an adhesive coating exposed along its opposite side comprising a pair of infeed rolls rotatable about parallel axes and forming a nip therebetween, with at least one roll thereof having a high friction surface for engaging the slippery coated side of the web and another roll thereof having a substantially non-stick surface for contact with the adhesive coating of the web, a pair of outfeed rolls rotatable about axes parallel to one another and to the axes of the infeed rolls with at least one roll thereof having a substantially non-stick surface for contact with the adhesive coating, a separation device between the pairs of infeed and outfeed rolls for separating the web into linerless labels, a sensor for sensing a mark on the web and providing an output signal in response thereto and means responsive to the output signal for actuating the separation device for forming the linerless labels.
- FIGURE 1 is a schematic side elevational view of a separator according to the present invention.
- FIGURE 2 is a schematic end elevational view of the infeed rolls
- FIGURE 3 is an end elevational view illustrating the cutting mechanism on a cut roller
- FIGURES 4 and 5 are illustrative of the helically oriented cutting blade at the beginning and end of the cut, respectively;
- FIGURE 6 is a schematic illustration of the infeed rolls backing up to break the fugitive adhesive bond between the cut label and the web;
- FIGURE 7 is a schematic illustration of a separator hereof in a bursting mode.
- a separator for forming discrete linerless labels from a.web W of label material.
- the separator may be employed in a cutting mode or in a bursting mode.
- the web of labels is provided with preprinted timing marks T along one side for purposes of controlling the cutting or bursting position ofthe web, as will become apparent from the ensuing description.
- the timing marks are used to initiate the separating mechanism.
- the web W of labels In the bursting mode, the web W of labels has transversely extending lines of perforation which are severed on bursting to form discrete linerless labels.
- the web W is preferably taken from a roll R of web material.
- the web has an exposed adhesive surface A along its underside and a slippery surface, i.e., a silicone-coated surface, along its upper side.
- the slippery surface does not readily adhere to the adhesive surface when the web is in roll form. As indicated previously, marginal punching is not used with the label stock.
- the separator mechanism 10 includes a pair of input rolls 12 and 14 defining a nip through which the web W is passed.
- the rolls are mounted for rotation between a pair of opposed frames 16, only one being illustrated in Figure 1, and are maintained in pressure contact with web W by means of a garter spring 18.
- Spring 18 extends about the end axles 20 and 22 ofthe rolls 12 and 14, respectively, and a dead post 24.
- the dead post 24 retains the spring on the assembly while facilitating removal of either roll 12 or 14 for jam clearance or cleaning.
- a motor Ml is mounted on a side frame 16 and includes a pulley or belt 26 for connection with the rollers 12 and 14 for driving the rollers in forward and reverse directions as described below.
- the upper roll 12 preferably has high friction elastomer or grit roll surface for effecting positive contact with the slick silicone-coated side of the web W.
- the lower roll 14 has either a silicone elastomer or a non-stick plasma surface, both of which effect little or no cohesion with the adhesive A along the underside of the label web W. It will be appreciated that the orientation of the web and infeed rolls can be reversed with the adhesive on top of the web in contact with the roll 14 and the slick surface on the bottom of the web in contact with the roll 12.
- a pair of outfeed rolls 30 and 32 are similarly positioned downstream from the infeed rolls 12 and 14 and define a nip between which the cut labels are advanced for dispensing from the separator 10.
- the rolls 30 and 32 are mounted similarly as the infeed rolls, employing a garter spring 34.
- the outfeed rails 30 and 32 are driven by a separate motor M2 through a pulley arrangement 36.
- the rolls 30 and 32 are of substantially identical construction with the rolls 12 and 14, respectively, of the infeed rolls.
- a cylinder assembly 37 on which is mounted a fixed blade 40 in opposition to a cylinder 38 carrying a blade 42 movable with the cylinder 38.
- the blade 40 serves as a fixed anvil in opposition to the movable blade 42, the fixed and movable blades 40 and 42 extending along the underside and upper sides of the web W, respectively.
- Cylinder 38 is mounted for rotation about an axis in the opposite supporting walls 16 and is driven by a separate motor M3. As illustrated in Figure 3, movable blade 42 forms a helix angle with the axis of rotation of cylinder 38.
- the cylinder 38 is mounted for complete 360° rotation which facilitates the oiling ofthe blade by a wicking cylinder 50.
- the wicking cylinder includes a felt roll assembly 52 having an outside diameter which slightly interferes with the periphery of the rotary blade 42 as it sweeps past the felt roll 52.
- the felt roll 52 is supported on ball bearings and is not driven. Oiling is accompHshed by a series of oil drip positions comprising passages 53 through a top bar 54.
- the cylinder 38 may be mounted for oscillatory motion about its axis. Oscillatory motion is preferred for improved cycle times where label len * • g£>t*hs are relatively short.
- an optical reader 60 for sensing the timing marks T as they pass a predetermined position.
- An output signal from the optical reader 60 responsive to sensing a timing mark, is input to a controller C which, in turn, controls the operation of motors Ml, M2 and M3.
- the roll pairs are driven in synchronism by motors Ml and M2, respectively.
- the controller stops the motors Ml and M2 so that the cut cycle may proceed.
- the motor M3 rotating the cut cylinder 38 through 360" or oscillating the movable blade 42, the blade 42 cooperates with the fixed blade 40 to sever the web W at a location providing a predetermined length of cut label.
- the motor Ml is reversed by the controller C.
- the infeed rolls 12 and 14 This reverses or backs up the infeed rollers 12 and 14 to break the fugitive bond of the advancing web W from the fixed blade 40, while the outfeed rolls are again advanced by operation of motor M2 to discharge the cut label from the separator 10.
- the motor Ml reverses direction to rotate the infeed rolls in a direction to advance the web W through the cutting assembly and the outfeed rolls.
- the outfeed rolls may be driven at one rotational speed for infeeding, matching the speed ofthe infeed rolls, braked to then hold the cut label in its cut position and rotated at a second rotational speed following cut-off to effect clean transfer of the severed label to a receiving means, not shown, and without the need to cooperate with the infeed rolls 12 and 14.
- the infeed and outfeed rolls can be advanced essentially on demand for predetermi ed intervals as desired.
- a breaker bar 80 is substituted for the rotatable blade.
- the fixed blade 40 may remain in place or be replaced with a smooth edged arbor against which the advancing web would impinge, while the rotary breaker bar processes to effect separation.
- the web is manufactured with transversely extending perforations such that the discrete labels are formed by breaking the perforations separating the label from the web.
- the movement of the web need not be stopped when forming each discrete label. That is, the bursting operation may be continuous.
- the bursting operation may use the controller to speed up the outfeed rolls once the timing mark has been sensed to effect bursting ofthe label from the web along the line of perforations.
