Labeling devices

Abstract

Abstract A labeling device for labels which adhere to a support or carrying tape, which is provided with recesses or cut-away marginal portions which are arranged with a spacing correspondence to the spacings between the front edges of the label, and the device is equipped with a transport roller drawing off the support tape step-by-step for the advance of a label, the transport roller being arranged to bring the label in a dispensing position which is to be held precisely and on its periphery is provided with projections which fit into the recesses or cut-away marginal portions of the carrier tape and can be driven in steps at a constant angle and is provided with a non-reversing ratchet, characterized in that a transport part is arranged so as to swing about the axis of rotation of the transport roller and a gripping piece which lies resiliently against the periphery of the transport roller is so pivotally mounted that on movement of the part a driving abutment, of the gripping piece, which is located adjacent to the projections located on a periphery of the transport roller, strikes against the projection and thus presses the gripping piece against the support tape lying on the periphery of the transport roller and drives the transport roller and drives the transport roller with the support tape through a distance determined by the pivoting angle of the part and in that on movement of the part against the transport direction of the driving abutment slides over the projections and raises the gripping piece from the support tape.
