  • Publication number: 20210292036
    Abstract: An apparatus for feeding a strip (1) of linerless labels (2) to a drum (60) for applying the labels onto containers comprises a strip support (10) for supporting a reel of a strip of linerless labels (2) and allowing unwinding of the strip (1) from the reel; a first motorized drive roller (20), designed to rotate in a direction of rotation to cause unwinding of the strip (1) arranged on the support (10) and continuous feeding thereof downstream in an advancement direction (X-X) of the strip; a second motorized drive roller (50), designed to rotate such as to cause advancing of the strip (1) towards the drum (60); a chamber (100) which is arranged between the first drive roller (20) and the second drive roller (5) in the direction (X-X) of advancement of the strip; a first upstream roller (11) of the chamber, motorized and rotating in the direction of rotation for advancing the strip, and a second downstream roller (120a) of the chamber, motorized to rotate in a direction opposite to that of the first upstream

  • Patent number: 9017496
    Abstract: A drum for cutting linerless labels from a continuous strip and transferring the labels to a container movable with a given trajectory and speed on a machine, the drum including a side surface suitable for guiding the strip by contacting a non-adhesive surface of the labels, the side surface defining a vertical slit, a coaxial and concentric sleeve for centering the drum on a corresponding support spindle, a cutting blade parallel to a vertical direction of the drum, the cutting blade being displaceable in a radial direction from a position retracted inside the drum to a position at least partially extended through the vertical slit outside the side surface of the drum, a fixed cam relative to which the drum rotates and that is configured to press against the cutting blade so as to cause the cutting blade to extend out in a predefined angular position, and a seat that extends in the vertical direction (Z-Z) and is connected to the cam and which is suitable for engagement with a corresponding fixed reference p
