ABSTRACT:
A labeling apparatus applies transfer labels to the curved peripheral surface of articles, such as bottles and other containers. An article support positions the article at a label transfer station within the apparatus with the curved peripheral surface of the article exposed and the article freely rotatable about its longitudinal axis. A labeling carriage, mounted for reciprocating movement back and forth relative to the transfer station, moves a web of transfer labels relative to the supported article, such that the label web and the curved surface of the article are in tangential rolling contact. A heating plate, mounted on the carriage adjacent that portion of the web in contact with the article, releases one label from the web for transfer onto the curved surface of the article.
