System for applying literature to a wall of an object

摘要

A system for applying literature to a wall of an object includes a hopper having an exit for dispensing literature one piece at a time and a rotatable member having a plurality of literature receiving areas disposed around the periphery thereof. Each literature receiving area receives one piece of literature from the exit. The member is positioned such that a portion of the periphery is in facing relationship with the exit of the hopper for allowing one of the literature receiving areas to be aligned with the exit. A servomotor rotates the rotatable member in a first direction such that the literature receiving areas pass by the exit one at a time to correspondingly receive a piece of literature from the exit of the hopper. A roller guides a web past a literature receiving area having a terminal piece of literature positioned thereon such that an adhesive coating on the web is in facing relationship with the terminal piece of literature. A pinch roller transfers the terminal piece of literature into adhering contact with the adhesive coating on the web. The web is then moved downstream to apply each piece of literature to an object.
