Patent number: 7128236Abstract: A label sheet assembly is provided with bar code information thereon defining the layout of the labels on the backing sheet. A versatile label dispenser apparatus advances the label sheets and deflects them over a peeling bar in one direction to partially separate the labels from the backing sheet; with the advancing action being determined by the bar code information. The label sheet assemblies are then deflected in the opposite direction, and are routed in a substantially flat condition to the output of the dispenser apparatus. The labels are partially dispensed, substantially vertically from the dispenser, and a substantial number of sensors are provided to sense when all of the labels have been removed; and then the dispenser advances the label sheet assembly to partially dispense the next row of labels. The bar code reader may also sense the leading edge of the label sheet assembly to accurately control the incremental advancing of the label sheet assembly.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2002Date of Patent: October 31, 2006Assignee: Avery Dennison CorporationInventors: Stephen Presutti, Wallace R. Fischer, Bryan Pittman, Bradley Borne, Douglas W. Wilson, Anahit Tataryan

Publication number: 20060118571Abstract: A media sheet which can be a label sheet assembly is provided with bar code information thereon defining the layout of the labels on the backing sheet, and/or a validation symbol or mark. A sheet feeding mechanism which may be part of a label peeler has at least one sensor which reads the encoded information and/or the validation symbol, and either takes an action with respect to the sheet, does not take the action, or takes a different action with respect to the sheet depending on the encoding or symbol on the sheet. The actions can include advancing the label sheet according to the layout of labels on the sheet, dispensing labels depending on the presence of a validation code, or other actions.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2005Publication date: June 8, 2006Inventors: Stephen Presutti, Wallace Fischer, Bryan Pittman, Bradley Borne, Douglas Wilson, Anahit Tataryan
