Fitting device

摘要

A label fitting device provided with a plurality of mounting bases which move along a transport path while target bodies for fitting are respectively mounted on the bases; a fitting head which is provided directly above each mounting base and moves together with the mounting base; and a label supply mechanism provided directly above the transport path to supply labels. Each fitting head includes a take-up member which receives a label held by a label supply unit when the head passes a supply position, and an opener mechanism which receives the label from the take-up member, and thereafter opens the label and fits the label on the target body mounted on the mounting base.

主权项

1. A label fitting device that opens a cylindrical label which is folded into a sheet shape and fits the label onto a columnar target body, the label fitting device comprising:
a plurality of mounting bases each moving along a predetermined transport path in a state in which the target body is placed thereon to thereby transport the target body; fitting heads respectively provided for the mounting bases on a one-to-one basis, each fitting head moving along the transport path in synchronization with the mounting bases and opening the label which is folded into a sheet shape and fitting the label onto the target body placed on the mounting base; and a label supply unit that cuts an elongated label base material sequentially to form the label and feeds the label base material and the label which is formed sequentially downward to transfer the label to the fitting head at a label supply position located immediately above the transport path, wherein each fitting head includes: a take-up member that is provided immediately above the mounting base and that sucks the label held by the label supply unit when passing the label supply position and moves forward along the transport path with the movement of the fitting head to thereby separate the label from the label supply unit and receives the label; and an opener mechanism that is provided immediately above the mounting base and that moves upward to a position above the target body placed on the mounting base to receive the label from the take-up member and thereafter fits the label onto the target body placed on the mounting base.
