ABSTRACT:
Labeling machine comprising a turret carrying plural pallets for periodically picking up glue, picking up a label on the glue, and transferring the glued label to a bottle or other workpiece by rotating the turret and oscillating the pallets radially inward and outward. Each pallet has a double-acting dog clutch for engaging or disengaging the drive which oscillates it; the clutch can be shifted only when the turret is at a particular angular position at which the pallet is sufficiently radially retracted to be clear of the sources of glue and labels and the mechanism for transferring labels. When a bottle is presented for receiving a label from a particular pallet the clutch is shifted to or maintained at its position for engaging the oscillating drive so the pallet transfers a glued label for application to the bottle. When no bottle is presented to be labelled by a pallet its clutch is shifted to or maintained at its position for disengaging the oscillating drive so the pallet is locked in a radially retracted position, clear of the source of labels and the mechanism for transferring labels to bottles. The machine is capable of labeling bottles very rapidly, and yet when a gap of even one bottle is detected in the feed stream labeling can be momentarily interrupted to prevent fouling the machine with superfluous labels.
