Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention provides a method for affixing label pieces that are sequentially temporarily attached on a strip-shaped mount to an article such as a product.
The present invention relates to a label peeling machine for peeling a label piece from the mount.

(Prior art) Conventionally, as a device that pulls a band-shaped mount with a fingertip operation and peels off a label temporarily attached to the mount, prior art: Japanese Patent Publication No. 46-20666 (label dispensing device) and prior art: Utility Model Publication No. 54-3676
No. 3 (label pasting machine), etc.

In the prior art, a continuous label body wound into a roll is housed in a box-shaped container, and a strip-shaped mount of this continuous label body is passed from a guide member through a guide plate end (label peeling part). In this method, a path is formed that leads to the outside from a mount passage, and by pulling this mount with a fingertip, the label temporarily attached to the mount is peeled off from the terminal of the guide plate.

This label dispensing device transfers the backing paper by pulling the tip of the backing paper with your fingertips, so when peeling off the label, either hold the container with the other hand or use it by attaching the container to your waist belt as in the example. There is an inconvenience that must be provided for.

Thus, the above-mentioned prior art can be cited as a configuration that allows label peeling with only one-handed operation. In this configuration, a continuous label roll wound into a roll is housed in the device, and the continuous label is deflected through a partition wall provided at the tip of the device via the surface of a feed roller, and then the label is removed. The tape-shaped mount after peeling is sandwiched between the feed roller and the tension roller and guided out of the machine.

Thus, in order to peel off the label, it is necessary to press the thumb directly against the label continuous body placed on the feed roller and send it forward.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Particularly in the prior art, in order to feed out a continuous label body, the continuous label body placed on a feeding roller is directly pressed with a thumb or the like and pushed out. Since the fingertips may slip on the label continuous body, reliable label transfer cannot be expected at all times. Furthermore, since the fingertips are in direct contact with the label, the data printed on the label will be rubbed, making the printing unclear, and in the case of barcode printing, it may not be possible to read it.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a label peeling machine that can transport a label continuous body reliably at all times, perform reliable label peeling, and prevent data printed on the label from being rubbed by fingertips.

(Means for solving the problem) In the label peeling machine of the present invention, the holding part (winding core) of the continuous label body 10 wound into a roll shape
3, a turning section 19 that turns the strip-shaped mount 12 and peels off the label 11; a mount support plate 17 that guides the strip-shaped mount after the label is peeled off; , a mount tensioning member 20, 2 is attached to the tip of the elastically biased rotating member 26.

The mount tensioning members 20, 20a are attached with a crimping member 30 made of a material with a large friction coefficient that presses and pulls the strip-shaped mount, or a needle 35 that pierces and pulls the strip-shaped mount, Further, the mount tensioning members 20, 20a are slidably fitted to the rod 29, and are configured to be biased by a spring 31 in the opposite direction of pulling the band-shaped mount 12. .

(Function) To explain the first embodiment as a representative, with reference to FIGS. This is a path configuration in which the strip-shaped mount 12 is inverted and guided out of the machine through an opening 34.

Thus, if the machine is held in one hand and the thumb is placed on and pressed against the mount tensioning member 20, the state shown in FIG. 2 will be obtained. That is, the rotating member 26, which has the mount tensioning member 20 at its tip, is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 1 with the pivot 25 as a fulcrum against the pressure of the spring 32. The strip-shaped mount 12 is crimped onto the mount support plate 17 as the pressure bonding member 30 provided at the lower part of the mount tensioning member 20 is lowered.

Next, as shown in FIG.
The strip-shaped mount 12 is pulled by sliding it toward the front (in the direction of the arrow) against the elasticity of the spring 31 while keeping the strip-shaped mount 12 in a crimped state.

Thus, in the turning section 19, this belt-shaped mount 1
To reliably peel off a label 11 temporarily attached to 2. The user grasps the peeled label 11 with the other fingertip and attaches it to a desired product.

Then, by releasing the pressing thumb, the mount tensioning member 20 returns to the state shown in FIG. 1.
That is, the rotating member 26 equipped with the tensioning member 20 is rotated clockwise and returned by the action of the spring 32 of the pivot 25, and the mount tensioning member 20 is returned to its original position by the action of the spring 31 of the rod 29. It returns to the tip portion of a certain rotating member 26.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings.

Next, on the top of the present label peeling machine 1, there are a pair of mount guides 16 erected at the upper end of the machine frame 2, a mount support plate 17 horizontally installed between the mount guides 16, and a mount tension member to be described later. A mount transfer unit 1 consisting of 20
8 is formed.

Further, a turning portion 19 of the mount is formed at the front end (the left end in FIG. 1) of the mount support plate 17. Reference numeral 21 denotes a pair of label receiving members which are formed integrally with each opposing surface of the pair of mount guides 16 and have substantially triangular side surfaces so as to be located slightly rearward and above the turning portion 19 . Note that the label receiving member 21 may be an integral member suspended horizontally between the mount guides 16, and its shape may be arbitrary.

The mount tensioning member 20 is slidably attached to a rotating member 26 which is pivotally attached to the rear end of the machine frame 2 by a pivot 25. That is, the rotating member 26
The center of the front part is cut out to form an elongated sliding recess 27.
A rod 29 having a stopper 28 formed at its tip is integrally provided in the sliding recess 27 in the longitudinal direction. The mount tensioning member 20 is slidably accommodated in the sliding recess 27 through the rod 29, and a pressure bonding member 30 made of a material with a large coefficient of friction such as rubber is attached to the lower end of the mount tensioning member 20. installed. Note that 31 is a spring that is wound around the rod 29 and always urges the mount tensioning member 20 forward, and 32 is a spring that is wound around the pivot shaft 25 and urges the entire rotating member 26 clockwise. It is a spring that exists. Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a mount cutter 33 is provided at the rear of the rotating member 26, and an opening 34 is provided at the rear for discharging the mount 12.
are formed respectively.

Next, the effect will be explained. The label peeling machine 1 of this embodiment is detachably attached to, for example, a thermal printer, and winds up a printed label continuous body 10. That is, as shown in FIG. 9, the label peeling machine 1 is reversed, and the rotary body 6 is rotated so that its label holding part 9 is positioned upward, and is set on the upper part of the printer 23. In this set state, a gear (not shown) connected to the label feeding mechanism of the printer 23 meshes with the gear 5 of the label peeling machine 1, and as a result, the winding core 3 is moved in synchronization with the label feeding of the printer 23. is starting to rotate. Then, from the printer 23, the label continuum 1 is
0 is pulled out and its tip is inserted into the slit 4 of the winding core 3, printing is started and the printed label continuous body 10 is wound up. As shown in FIG. 10, this continuous label body 10 is made up of a large number of labels 11 temporarily attached one after another on a strip-shaped mount 12.

After printing a predetermined number of sheets, label continuum 1
0 and remove the peeler 1 from the printer 23.

Next, as shown in FIG. 1, the continuous label body 10 is pulled out and the backing paper 12 is turned backward at the turning portion 19 at the tip of the backing paper support plate 17, and the backing paper is inserted between the label receiving member 21 and the backing paper support plate 17. It is guided rearward along the support plate 17.

Then, the upright rotating body 6 is rotated to its original position, and its label holding part 9 is brought into contact with the label continuous body 10 as shown in FIG.

Therefore, hold the label peeling machine 1 with one hand and place the pad of your thumb on the top surface of the mount tensioning member 20 (Fig. 1).
By pressing, the rotating member 26 is rotated counterclockwise against the elasticity of the spring 32, and the pressure bonding member 30 of the mount tension member 20 is crimped onto the mount 12 (FIG. 2).

Next, with the mount tension member 20 pressed, the third
As shown in the figure, by moving the backing paper 12 and pulling the backing paper 12, the label continuous body 10 is transported and the backing paper 12
While the label 11 is turned backward at the turning section 19, the label 11 moves forward while peeling off from the mount 12 due to its own rigidity and is sent out of the machine. When the cut 24 between the labels 11 and 11 reaches the turning part 19, the label 11 is turned clockwise from the cut 24 because the rear end of the front label 11 is still temporarily attached to the mount 12. , comes into contact with the label receiving surface 22 of the label receiving member 21 and stops in an upright state. Therefore, it is sufficient to pick up the label 11 with the fingers of the other hand and attach it to the target article.

Note that the turning portion 19 may be formed separately from the mount support plate 17, for example, using a turning pin or the like.

Next, a second embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8. This label peeling machine 1a differs slightly from that of the first embodiment only in the configuration of the mount transfer section 18a. That is, a needle 35 is provided protruding from the lower surface of the mount tension member 20a instead of the pressure bonding member 30, and a passage 36 for the needle 35 is provided in the mount support plate 17a.
is recessed.

Therefore, when the mount tensioning member 20a is pressed against the mount 12 with a finger during use, the needle 35 pierces the mount 12, so that the mount 1 is prevented from slipping between the mount tension member 20a and the mount 12.
2 can be sent more reliably.

Common to both embodiments, after peeling off the label 11, by releasing the thumb pressing the backing sheet tension members 20, 20a, the members 20, 20a are removed.
is automatically returned to the initial state by fitting into the rod 29, the action of the spring 31, and the action of the spring 32 against the rotating member 26, and preparation for transferring and peeling off the next label 11 is completed. be placed in a position.

Note that in all of the above embodiments, the label peeling machine is attached to the printer and the printed label continuous body is wound up, but the label peeling machine of the present invention
A roll-shaped label continuous body, which is formed by winding a label continuous body with labels, stickers, etc. that have already been printed (printed) or not printed (printed) at all temporarily attached to a backing paper, is directly stored in the main body. It is also possible to use

(Effects) As described above, the present invention includes a holding part (winding core) 3 for the continuous label body 10 wound into a roll, a turning part 19 for turning the strip-shaped mount 12 and peeling off the label 11, There are mount support plates 17, 17a that guide the band-shaped mount after the label has been peeled off, and a mount tensioning member 20 at the tip of a rotating member 26 that is elastically biased in the direction away from the mount support plates 17, 17a.
A pressure bonding member 30 made of a material with a large coefficient of friction is attached to the mount tensioning members 20 and 20a and is made of a material with a large coefficient of friction for crimping and pulling the band-shaped mount. Further, the mount tensioning members 20, 20a are slidably fitted into the rod 29, and are biased by a spring 31 in the opposite direction of pulling the strip-shaped mount 12. Therefore, the turned strip-shaped mount can be reliably pulled without slipping, and the return to the initial state can be automatically performed.

Therefore, label peeling at the turning section 19 is ensured, and since the label continuous body with printed labels is not directly touched with fingertips, there is no risk of contaminating the printed data on the label. .
