<p>The unit for applying a pre-cut foil blank to bottles is supplied by a conveyor (2). The bottles (1) are spaced apart by a continuous screw (3) before being transferred to a rotating table (7). One or more labelling units (8,9) roll a foil blank, and labels, onto the bottle, which then passes to an exit conveyor (13). A rotating, independently driven, folding and pressing assembly is fitted beneath a support plate (17) positioned over the exit wheel (10). - The pressing units, fewer in number than the cut-outs (11) in the exit wheel and rotating on a different axis, have a shaped rubber insert to fold and crimp the foil onto the bottle neck. They are activated by a cam mounted on the support plate. The eccentricity brings bottle and pressure unit together over a small arc just before the exit. (1/10) DEAB- DE3345226 C A bottle labelling machine includes a station which places a metal foil around the corked bottle end. The foil applicator includes a number of vertically movable heads (33) which place and secure the foil on the bottle. - The applicator heads are located on a rotor whose axis (32) is offset to the axis (29) of the bottle transfer rotor (10). The head and bottle spacing is identical and they are in axial alignment (34) when the foil is attached to the bottle.</p> |
