Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Rundumetikettieren von Gegenständen, insbesondere von zylindrischen Batteriekörpern, bei dem unterseitig mit einer Haftklebstoffschicht versehene Etiketten auf die Gegenstände und dabei unterseitige Randbereiche der Etiketten in einem Überlappungsbereich auf gegenüberliegende oberseitige Randbereiche der jeweils gleichen Etiketten geklebt werden.The invention relates to a method for the all-round labeling of objects, in particular cylindrical battery bodies, in which labels provided on the underside with a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive are glued to the objects and the underside edge regions of the labels in an overlap region to opposite top edge regions of the same labels in each case.

Verfahren dieser Art sind bekannt. Bei der Durchführhng solcher Verfahren hat sich gezeigt, daß sich gelegentlich die Überlappungsbereiche bei hohen Rückstellkräften der Etiketten voneinander abheben, wenn die Rückstellkräfte größer sind als die Klebekraft in den genannten Überlappungsbereichen. Diese Rückstellkräfte sind u. a. von der Biegesteifigkeit der verwendeten Etiketten sowie von der Krümmung der zu etikettierenden Gegenstände in dem Überlappungsbereich abhängig.Methods of this type are known. When such methods were carried out, it was found that the overlap areas occasionally stand out from one another at high restoring forces of the labels if the restoring forces are greater than the adhesive force in the mentioned overlap areas. These restoring forces are u. a. dependent on the bending stiffness of the labels used and on the curvature of the objects to be labeled in the overlap area.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, das Abheben der Etiketten voneinander in den Überlappungsbereichen zu vermeiden.The object of the invention is to avoid lifting the labels apart from one another in the overlapping areas.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird die Oberflächenenergie der Oberseiten der Etiketten wenigstens in den genannten oberseitigen (nicht mit einer Haftklebstoffschicht versehenen) Randbereiche zur Erhöhung der Klebekraft der Haftklebstoffschicht an ihnen durch eine Vorbehandlung erhöht.To achieve this object, the surface energy of the upper sides of the labels is increased at least in the above-mentioned edge regions (not provided with a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer) in order to increase the adhesive force of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on them by means of a pretreatment.

Eine Erhöhung der Oberflächenenergie kann durch eine chemische, mechanische oder thermische Vorbehandlung erfolgen, bevorzugt jedoch durch eine ionisierende Vorbehandlung. Insbesondere hat sich bewährt, die Oberflächenenergie durch Sulfonieren, Fluorieren, Aufrauhen, Beflammen, Plasmabehandlung, bevorzugt jedoch durch Koronabehandlung, zu erhöhen.The surface energy can be increased by a chemical, mechanical or thermal pretreatment, but preferably by an ionizing pretreatment. In particular, it has proven useful to increase the surface energy by sulfonating, fluorinating, roughening, flame treatment, plasma treatment, but preferably by corona treatment.

Werden in bekannter Weise die Etiketten den Gegenständen auf einem Trägerband zugeführt, auf dem sie lösbar haften und vor den Gegenständen durch Umlenken des Trägerbands von dem Trägerband zum Aufkleben auf die Gegenstände gelöst, so erfolgt die Vorbehandlung bevorzugt mindestens einmalig unmittelbar vor dem Umlenken. Dabei kann das Trägerband bei entsprechender Steuerung der Vorbehandlung kontinuierlich oder schrittweise auf die Gegenstände zu bewegt werden.If the labels are fed to the objects on a carrier tape in a known manner, on which they releasably adhere and in front of the objects are detached from the carrier tape by deflecting the carrier tape to be glued onto the objects, the pretreatment is preferably carried out at least once immediately before the deflection. With appropriate control of the pretreatment, the carrier tape can be moved toward the objects continuously or step by step.

Erfolgt das Umlenken des Trägerbands - wie an sich bekannt - am Ende einer Unterlagsplatte, so wird bevorzugt oberhalb der Unterlagsplatte in Abstand von den auf dem Trägerband befindlichen Etiketten wenigstens ein Koronaentladungsdraht quer zur Bewegungsrichtung des Trägerbands angeordnet.If the carrier tape is deflected - as is known per se - at the end of a base plate, at least one corona discharge wire is preferably arranged above the base plate at a distance from the labels on the carrier tape, transversely to the direction of movement of the carrier tape.

Dabei hat es sich bewährt, den Koronaentladungsdraht in einem dielektrischen Zylinder einzubetten. In der Praxis wurden besonders gute Ergebnisse erzielt, wenn das Verhältnis der Abmessungen von Abstand zu Überlappungsbereich 0,5 bis 4, vorzugsweise 1 bis 2, beträgt und wenn der Durchmesser des dielektrischen Zylinders das 0,6- bis 1,4-fache, vorzugsweise das 0,8- bis 1,2-fache des Abstands beträgt.It has proven useful to embed the corona discharge wire in a dielectric cylinder. In practice, particularly good results have been achieved if the ratio of the dimensions from the distance to the overlap region is 0.5 to 4, preferably 1 to 2, and if the diameter of the dielectric cylinder is 0.6 to 1.4 times, preferably is 0.8 to 1.2 times the distance.

In der Mehrzahl der Fälle hat der Überlappungsbereich eine Breite von 3 bis 5 mm, so daß ein Abstand zwischen Überlappungsbereich und Koronaentladungsdraht von etwa 10 mm besonders geeignet ist, um eine gleichmäßige Vorbehandlung in dem genannten Randbereich zu erzielen.In the majority of cases, the overlap area has a width of 3 to 5 mm, so that a distance between the overlap area and the corona discharge wire of approximately 10 mm is particularly suitable in order to achieve a uniform pretreatment in the said edge area.

Dabei sollte die Koronabehandlung mit einem Koronaentladungsdraht bzw. jedem Koronaentladungsdraht 2 bis 5 ms, vorzugsweise 3 bis 4 ms, betragen.The corona treatment with a corona discharge wire or each corona discharge wire should be 2 to 5 ms, preferably 3 to 4 ms.

Um die Oberflächenenergie hinreichend zu erhöhen, hat es sich bewährt, dem Koronaentladungsdraht eine elektrische Leistung von 100 W bis 300 W pro 100 mm Länge, vorzugsweise 150 bis 200 W pro 100 mm Länge bei einer Spannung von 20 bis 35 kV, insbesondere 25 bis 30 kV, mit einer Frequenz von 15 bis 25 kHz, insbesondere 18 bis 22 kHz, zuzuführen.In order to increase the surface energy sufficiently, it has proven useful to provide the corona discharge wire with an electrical one Power of 100 W to 300 W per 100 mm length, preferably 150 to 200 W per 100 mm length at a voltage of 20 to 35 kV, in particular 25 to 30 kV, with a frequency of 15 to 25 kHz, in particular 18 to 22 kHz to feed.

In der Regel soll die Oberflächenenergie erheblich erhöht werden, nämlich auf mehr als 40 mN pro m, insbesondere mehr als 45 mN pro m.As a rule, the surface energy should be increased considerably, namely to more than 40 mN per m, in particular more than 45 mN per m.

Enthalten die Etiketten eine Metallschicht, insbesondere eine durch Bedampfung erzeugte Metallschicht und an dieser Metallschicht angrenzende Kunststoffschichten, so kann es geschehen, daß die Metallschichten bei der Koronabehandlung verdampfen und die Kunststoffschichten schmelzen, wodurch die Etiketten wenigstens randseitig beschädigt werden. Um dennoch die erhöhte Oberflächenenergie aufbringen zu können, ohne daß solche Schäden am etikettierten Gegenstand bemerkbar und schädlich werden, werden bevorzugt die Überlappungsbereiche breiter gemacht als diejenigen Randbereiche der Etiketten, die durch die Vorbehandlung Randfehler erhalten können.If the labels contain a metal layer, in particular a metal layer produced by vapor deposition and plastic layers adjacent to this metal layer, it can happen that the metal layers evaporate during the corona treatment and the plastic layers melt, as a result of which the labels are damaged at least at the edges. In order nevertheless to be able to apply the increased surface energy without such damage to the labeled object becoming noticeable and harmful, the overlap regions are preferably made wider than those edge regions of the labels which can receive edge defects through the pretreatment.

Im folgenden wird eine Vorrichtung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens unter Hinweis auf die beigefügten Zeichnung beschrieben.An apparatus for carrying out the method is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing.

In der Zeichnung ist im Schnitt eine Unterlagsplatte 2 dargestellt, über die ein Trägerband 4, auf dem sich unterseitig mit einer Haftklebstoffschicht 6 versehene Etiketten 8 befinden, um eine Umlenkkante 10 gezogen wird. An der Umlenkkante 10 lösen sich die Etiketten 8 mit ihrer Haftklebstoffschicht 6 in bekannter Weise vom Trägerband 4, um auf zu etikettierende Gegenstände aufgebracht zu werden.In the drawing, a base plate 2 is shown in section, over which a carrier tape 4, on which there are labels 8 provided on the underside with a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6, is drawn around a deflection edge 10. At the deflection edge 10, the labels 8 with their pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6 detach from the carrier tape 4 in a known manner in order to be applied to objects to be labeled.

Über der Unterlagsplatte 2 ist eine Koronaentladungseinrichtung 12 mit einem Abschirmgehäuse 14 und in Bewegungsrichtung des Trägerbands 4 zwei Koronaentladungsdrähten 16, 18 angeordnet. Die Koronaentladungsdrähte 16, 18 sind von Quarzglaszylindern 20, 22 umschlossen.A corona discharge device is located above the base plate 2 12 with a shielding housing 14 and two corona discharge wires 16, 18 arranged in the direction of movement of the carrier tape 4. The corona discharge wires 16, 18 are enclosed by quartz glass cylinders 20, 22.

In dem dargestellten Zustand werden die in Bewegungsrichtung vorderen oberen Randbereiche 24, 26 der Etiketten in zwei Schritten koronabehandelt. Die Abmessungen und Bemessungen sind bevorzugt so, wie oben angegeben. Bei der Koronabehandlung freiwerdende schädliche Gase werden durch eine Absaugvorrichtung 28 abgesaugt.In the state shown, the front upper edge regions 24, 26 of the labels in the direction of movement are corona-treated in two steps. The dimensions and dimensions are preferably as stated above. Harmful gases released during the corona treatment are extracted by a suction device 28.

Die Koronabehandlung kann auch so durchgeführt werden, daß sie noch anderen Zwecken nutzt. Beispielsweise werden die Etiketten nach ihrem Aufbringen auf die Gegenstände noch bedruckt, etwa mittels eines Tintenstrahl-Druckverfahrens. Die Druckfestigkeit wird erhöht, wenn sich noch Reste der Koronabehandlung auf den Oberflächen der Etiketten befinden. Nicht nur aus einem solchen Grunde, sondern vor allem, um nicht sich voneinander abhebende Überlappungsbereiche der Etiketten zu erhalten, ist es erforderlich, die Vorbehandlung wenigstens der Randbereiche der Etiketten erst kurz vor dem Aufkleben der Etiketten auf die Gegenstände vorzunehmen, weil eine solche Vorbehandlung nur eine verhältnismäßig kurze Wirklebensdauer hat.The corona treatment can also be carried out in such a way that it is used for other purposes. For example, the labels are still printed after they have been applied to the objects, for example by means of an inkjet printing process. The compressive strength is increased if there are remnants of the corona treatment on the surfaces of the labels. Not only for such a reason, but above all in order not to obtain overlapping areas of overlap of the labels, it is necessary to carry out the pretreatment of at least the edge areas of the labels only shortly before the labels are stuck onto the objects, because such pretreatment only has a relatively short working life.
