ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for the silk screen printing of labels, artwork, descriptive material, etc. on cylindrical containers. The silk screen is prepared and set up in a carriage for reciprocative movement above a container cradle assembly positioned for pivotally moving a container into and out of peripheral engagement with the underside of the silk screen. An adjustable measuring device is provided to receive a cylindrical container and to indicate the diameter thereof on a calibrated scale in indexing reference numeral graduations. The measuring device is interconnected with an air cylinder utilized to drive the container cradle assembly so as to control the pivotal stroke thereof to properly position all subsequent like-diameter containers inserted in the cradle for the silk screen printing operation and for removal from the cradle. A corresponding scale is provided on an adjustable drive linkage from a second air cylinder device to the silk screen carriage mechanism, whereby, upon adjustment of the drive linkage to correspond with the reference numeral index of the measuring device, correlation of the reciprocative movement of the screen to the diameter of the bottle will automatically be achieved.
