ABSTRACT:
A continuous tag feeding and cutting apparatus for cutting a continuous tag strip into proper length tags. A first feeding mechanism feeds the strip of tags past the cutting mechanism to a second feeding mechanism, and a sensor halts the first feeding mechanism each time a sufficient length of the tag strip has been fed past the cutting mechanism. The cutting mechanism includes a rotary blade which is driven through one rotation cycle each time a length of tag strip is fed therepast by the first feeding mechanism. A second feeding mechanism located past the cutting mechansim is engaged with the tag strip for feeding a tag cut from the strip during one rotation of the blade to storage after the tag has been cut from the strip. The second feeding mechanism includes a driving roller which is driven to rotate along with the rotary blade and includes a driven roller which is engageable with the driving roller to engage the tag strip. A cam arrangement disengages the driven roller from the driving roller of the second feeding mechanism during the period prior to the cutting, during the cutting and after the cutting of the tag strip by the rotary blade, and causes the second feed mechanism to reengage the cut tag while the rotary blade is moving from the position after cutting back to the position prior to the next cutting.
