Patent number: 6523593Abstract: A device for applying a label to a disc includes a support member, preferably in the form of a plate for supporting a label on its upper surface, the plate having a central opening through which projects a disc positioning member, for example, in the form of a rod and a carriage member, preferably in the form of a plurality of bearings mounted on resilient arms. The bearings are adapted to move under pressure from above from a first position in which the bearings project upwardly through the opening to support the disc in spaced apart relationship to the label and to retain the label through its central aperture in concentric alignment with the disc to a second position in which the bearings are retracted below the upper surface of the plate for lowering the disc onto the label whereupon the label is adhered to the disc and is no longer retained by the bearings.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2001Date of Patent: February 25, 2003Assignee: Rocky Mountain Traders, Ltd.Inventor: Howard Miller

Patent number: 6149763Abstract: A compact disc labeling device for manual application of a label to a compact disc includes an assembly having a circumferential flange with an upper flange surface, a piston, a first rod having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the label's central aperture and that extends from the upper surface of the piston, and a second rod having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the disc's central aperture and that extends from the first rod. In use, a label is placed on the flange with the first rod projecting through its central aperture and the disc positioned on the second rod through its central aperture. When the piston is moved from an upper first position to a lower second position, the disc is applied to the label.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 1999Date of Patent: November 21, 2000Assignee: Rocky Mountain Traders, Ltd.Inventor: Stanley I.
