ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for applying segments of sealing tape to both ends of a carton and for forming pull-tabs at both ends of the segments of sealing tape so applied. Cartons are conveyed in indexed fashion at uniform intervals on a conveyor. Sealing tape is dispensed from two rolls and is applied to the ends of the cartons by lay-down rollers at the margins of the conveyor. The conveyor is indexed so as to stop the conveyor after a section of tape linking two adjacent cartons on the conveyor is provided at each end of the cartons. Short segments of masking tape are applied to the adhesive side of the sealing tape at specific locations thereon and at a station spaced upstream from the point where the sealing tape is applied to the cartons whereby after the sealing tape is applied to the cartons, the masking tape segments will be disposed on the linking sections of sealing tape midway between two adjacent cartons. The linking sections of sealing tape are then cut to sever the masking tape segments in half, and the several upstream and downstream halves of the linking sections of sealing tape are applied to the opposing front and rear side panels of the adjacent cartons. Pull-tabs, each comprising one-half of a masking tape segment, are thus formed at the ends of the sealing tape applied to the side panels of the cartons.
