ABSTRACT:
A labeling apparatus is presented. The apparatus has a pair of stationary rollers. There is a gap between the rollers. An idler wheel is positioned opposite the stationary rollers to engage the object and hold it against the rollers. A floating pin is positioned between the rollers and the object. The pin diameter is larger than the roller gap. A continuous web of labels is threaded through the gap and around the pin. When the web is advanced, the tension forces the web and pin against the rollers causing the rollers to rotate in the opposite direction, thus driving the engaged object forward. As the web advances, the label does not follow the diameter of the pin and is separated from the web and applied to the object. An object supply hopper has separating means for providing individual objects to the rollers. The entire apparatus is angled relative to the horizontal plane. The hopper is oblique to the plane of the object.
