20110126960 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR APPLYING LABELS TO CONTAINERS - An apparatus for applying a “shrink sleeve” label to a container includes a casing member for enclosing a container in a closed chamber, a heating device for heating a heat-shrinkable element that is a precursor of a “shrink sleeve” label arranged around the container so as to heat-shrink the heat-shrinkable element, and a pressure-reducing member to reduce the pressure in the closed chamber. | 06-02-2011 |
20120222801 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING SLEEVE-LIKE LABELS - A device for producing a sleeve-like label, comprising at least one feeder, designed to feed to at least one forming spindle a portion of heat-shrink film, and elements for wrapping the portion of heat-shrink film around the lateral surface of the forming spindle; elements for detecting the angular position of the free edge of the second longitudinal end of the portion of film wrapped around the forming spindle with respect to an absolute reference system that is jointly connected to the forming spindle; relative movement elements adapted to move the free edge detected by the detection elements to a preset position in order to provide a connecting portion at a preset distance with respect to the free edge, elements being further provided for transferring the sleeve-like label from the forming spindle to a container to be labelled. | 09-06-2012 |
20120227895 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PRODUCING SLEEVE-LIKE LABELS - A method for producing sleeve-like labels, comprising: a step of unwinding a reel of heat-shrink film, which comprises a plurality of pre-pasted portions; a step of separating one band of heat-shrink film from the reel; a step of feeding the band of heat-shrink film to a forming spindle; a step of wrapping the band of heat-shrink-film around the forming spindle, a region of overlap being provided between a first longitudinal end of the band of heat-shrink film in contact with the forming spindle and the second longitudinal end of the hand of heat-shrink film, the pre-pasted portion being arranged at a portion of the overlap region; a step of transferring the sleeve-like label from the forming spindle to a container to be labeled. | 09-13-2012 |
20130213579 | DEVICE FOR FORMING AND TRANSFERRING A SLEEVE-LIKE LABEL TO A CONTAINER TO BE LABELED - A device for forming and transferring a sleeve-like label to a container to be labeled, comprising a feeder designed to feed a portion of heat-shrink film to at least one forming spindle and means for wrapping the portion of heat-shrink film around the lateral surface of the forming spindle, feeder means being provided which are adapted to move, along an approach path that has at least one component perpendicular to the axis of the forming spindle, the container to be labeled to a labeling position arranged below the forming spindle and pick-up means adapted to pick up the container with the sleeve-like label fitted around the respective lateral surface along a path for removal from the labeling position which has at least one component perpendicular to the axis of the forming spindle. | 08-22-2013 |
20140318083 | BOTTLING LINE AND METHOD - A continuous cycle bottling line ( | 10-30-2014 |
20140327189 | PLANT FOR MAKING CONTAINERS OF THERMOPLASTIC MATERIAL - A plant for making containers of thermoplastic material in continuous cycle comprises: a rotary moulding machine ( | 11-06-2014 |
20150064295 | APPARATUS FOR MANUFACTURING PLASTIC PREFORMS - An apparatus for manufacturing plastic preforms, comprising a rotating carousel forming device for plastic preforms and movement elements adapted to pick up the preforms from the rotating carousel forming device; the movement elements are associated with a supporting structure for a plurality of shaping receptacles, which are mutually spaced and movable along a transfer path, the shaping receptacles being adapted to receive a respective preform directly from the rotating carousel forming device and at an angular pick-up portion which is defined along the circular movement trajectory of the preforms on the rotating carousel forming device. | 03-05-2015 |
