A label strip feed mechanism for a portable labeling machine: a rotatable feed wheel having label strip feed projections on its outer periphery; one longitudinal end of the feed wheel is a toothed ratchet wheel; the other end of the feed wheel has a sleeve defining a recess, and inner retaining recesses inside the sleeve; a pawl member is rotatable coaxially with the feed wheel and is removably engageable with the ratchet wheel; a non-return member is stationary relative to the labeling machine and is removably engageable with the inner retaining recesses of the sleeve to prevent reverse rotation of the feed wheel; a manually actuated lever rotates the pawl to intermittently rotate the feed wheel. |
