  • Patent number: 5167752
    Abstract: Labeling apparatus includes a supply of a laminated webs passing through a die cutter for cutting labels in an outer label member on a web liner. A label repositioner includes a peel bar having four flat surfaces forming four sharp edges. The bar is mounted to locate a flat surface as a support surface for the cut web, which passes downwardly over a guide roller located beneath the plane of the flat surface. The cut web moves over the one sharp edge which releases the label as the liner moves in a loop from the plane of the flat surface. The loop of the liner returns the liner to just below the plane of the flat surface and spaced from the sharp edge by a distance less than the length of the removed label. The removed label passes over the spaced gap and is pressed back onto the liner overlying the die cutting edges on the liner to connect the liner on opposite sides of any cut in the liner.
