METHOD AND DEVICE FOR REMOVING A RING-SHAPED LABEL FROM A PACK OF SUBSTANTIALLY IDENTICAL, ABUTTING RING-SHAPED LABELS, LABEL-TRANSFERRING DEVICE AND SYSTEM FOR PRODUCING PLASTIC INJECTION-MOULDED PRODUCTS

摘要

A device for removing a ring-shaped label (40) from a pack of substantially identical, abutting ring-shaped labels (40) comprises a pickup head (45) which is provided with a stop surface (46) and retaining means (60) for holding a ring-shaped label (40) against the stop surface (46). The device comprises a storage holder (44) for accommodating the pack of ring-shaped labels (40). A displacement device can displace the pack of ring-shaped labels from a storage position, in which the pack of ring-shaped labels is situated at a distance from the stop surface of the pick-up head, to a discharge position, in which the pack of ring-shaped labels is pushed against the stop surface of the pick-up head by means of an outer ring-shaped label. A blast of air is delivered when the outer ring-shaped label is held against the stop surface of the pick-up head, so that the adjacent ring-shaped label is blown off the outer ring-shaped label.
