ABSTRACT:
In the application of a solvent to a plastic label carried on the surface of a vacuum drum, the solvent for the plastic label is transferred from a gravure roll to the label at finite areas on the label so that the label can adhere to the bottle to be labeled and to itself to form a complete sleeve label. The gravure roll is supplied from a fountain block with a part cylindrical face that engages the gravure roll in face to face contact. The fountain block is retained in a holder with spaced adjustment devices for adjusting the position of the fountain block in the holder.
The fountain block holder is pivotally attached to each of a pair of spaced apart plates about a first axis and the pair of spaced apart plates are pivotally attached to a second pair of spaced apart plates about a second axis which is spaced from and extends parallel to the first axis. The pivoting of the first pair of spaced apart plates with respect to the second pair of spaced apart plates is controlled by a releasable latch mechanism which maintains the fountain flock in engagement with the gravure roll and which permits the pair of spaced apart plates with the fountain block holder to be pivoted away from the gravure for servicing or changing the fountain block upon the releasing of the latch mechanism.
