<p>An apparatus for applying foil blanks having at least one point to bottles comprises a turntable equipped with a plurality of controlled bottle-rotating devices arranged around its periphery. At least one labelling station transfers the foil blanks (and other labels if necessary) to bottles moved past the station by the turntable and placed in a specific position of rotation. Elements apply pressure to the blanks (labels) transferred to the bottles, these elements being arranged along the path of the bottles determined by the turntable. A transfer spider following the turntable defines receiving locations for the bottles. Clamping means secure the bottles against rotation while they pass right through the transfer spider. Means for turning over the ends of the blanks and laying them against the bottles consist of a plurality of similar units, each associated with a receiving location, arranged above the transfer spider and rotating there-with. Each unit is adapted to pivot, as a function of the rotary motion of the transfer spider, from a first position at the side of the relevant receiving lo-cation, to a second position thereabove, from which the unit is adapted to be lowered axially towards the top of the bottle held in the said receiving location. Each unit has a turning-over element and a smoothing and pressing element spaced in the direction of pivoting from the first position to the said second position and engaging the top of the bottle on all sides upon being lowered.</p> |
