<p>In a separator, a seesaw cover is pressed downward at its rear end to turn the seesaw cover counterclockwise to form an open mouth. A label comprising a printing tape and a cover tape attached through an adhesive layer o the printing tape is inserted at one end into the open mouth. The seesaw cover is released from the push force applied from above to its end opposite to the mouth, the cover is returned to its original position by the resiliency of a spring, and the label is then clamped at one end by elastic members within the mouth. When a push button is pressed downward, a pair of sliding contact surfaces thereof slide on a corresponding pair of sliding contact surfaces of a moving member to thereby move the moving member toward the mouth. This causes a curved member provided at a mouth-side end of the moving member and hence its curved member surface to curve a corner of the label. When the pushing and releasing operations of the push button are repeated several times and then the label is taken out, the cover tape and the printing tape of the printing laminate label are separated from each other at the corner.</p> |
