Braille writing devices and systems, and corresponding methods of writing braille characters on a tape medium are described herein. The devices and systems emboss tactile dots on different types of tape medium to enable braille character writing and advance the tape medium to create accurate and repeatable spacing of the braille characters. The devices and systems may be comprised of simply molded plastic parts that snap together using elastically averaging precision alignment features.

A method for adhering a label, lettering, ink, a tattoo, sketch, design or color (“indicia”) to a substrate comprising the steps of: providing an indicia-bearing backing paper; moistening the indicia-bearing backing paper to form a moistened indicia-bearing layer; providing an adhesive layer between the moistened indicia-bearing layer and the substrate; placing the moistened indicia-bearing layer on the adhesive layer; allowing the indicia to become separated from the backing paper, leaving the indicia upon the substrate; and drying on the substrate.

A label for a bottle where the label is comprised of a laminate where an outer layer (3) is a material susceptible to losing opaqueness when made wet, and an inner layer (5) behind this first layer which is a material that is opaque, and such that it will maintain such opaqueness when wet.

Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to methods and systems for producing plastic profiles. In one example embodiment, a method is disclosed including the steps of plasticizing a starting material in an extruder on an extrusion line, pressing the starting material through an extrusion die, cooling and calibrating the extruded material in a dry calibration and/or a wet calibration, and cutting the extruded material to length to form individual profile rods, cutting to length one or more profile samples can be requested intermittently at any point in time, applying, via a labeling device, on the profile samples characteristic information relating to the current extrusion process, taking into account the transit time of the profile.

Systems and methods for allowing sight impaired or blind persons to identify articles of clothing utilizing “smart labels” which comprise identification information, wherein the identification information is contained in, represented by, or interpretable via raised indicia (e.g., raised lettering or Braille), smart codes, global positioning system (GPS) technology, magnetic stripes, radio frequency identification (RFID) technology, near field communication (NFC) technology, microprocessors, Bluetooth technology, or combinations thereof. These smart labels are unaffected by normal usage such as washing, folding and crumpling to allow sight impaired or blind persons to tactually, or via an electronic interpretation device, e.g., personal computer, a smartphone, computer tablet, magnetic stripe reader, NFC communicator, RFID reader, or Bluetooth device, comprehend the identification information of the smart label.

A method for adhering a label, lettering, ink, a tattoo, sketch, design or color (“indicia”) to a substrate comprising the steps of: providing an indicia-bearing backing paper; moistening the indicia-bearing backing paper to form a moistened indicia-bearing layer; providing an adhesive layer between the moistened indicia-bearing layer and the substrate; placing the moistened indicia-bearing layer on the adhesive layer; allowing the indicia to become separated from the backing paper, leaving the indicia upon the substrate; and drying on the substrate.

A tool of the present invention includes a tool main body and a matte silver polyester label. The outer surface of the tool main body has a label region. The matte silver polyester label has an indicate surface and a glue surface opposite to the indicate surface. The indicate surface has one or more identification marks represented by words, colors, numbers, patterns or figures. The glue surface is stuck in the label region of the tool main body. As a result, the tool of the present invention provides great identification effect.

Label constructions comprise a first section and a second section that are laminate constructions of a card stock top surface that may include printed indicia, an adhesive layer disposed underneath the card stock, and a removable liner adhered to the adhesive layer and common to the first and second sections. The first section includes an RFID device. The first section may be configured once removed from the liner to fold on itself to form an RFID tag, or to form an RFID adhesive label. The second section once separately removed from the liner forms an adhesive label. The construction first and second sections are positioned adjacent one another and are formed during the same manufacturing process for purposes of manufacturing efficiency. The first and second sections may be treated to facilitate separate removal from the liner to provide labeling flexibility.

A multilayer marking film is disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a multilayer marking film includes, in sequential order, an adhesive layer, a colored base layer having a first color, and a colored coating layer having a second color, wherein information can be written by laser irradiation on the colored coating layer.

A method for manufacturing a label with a hanging handle includes providing a first laminated material having a backing layer and a first frontal layer having a frontal surface, coating the frontal surface with a layer of release promoter, leaving a free zone, providing a second laminated material having a second frontal layer having a predefined thickness and an adhesive layer, joining the first and second laminated materials in an assembled component, cutting a hanging handle in a handle zone of the second laminated material inside the thickness of the second laminated material, leaving the first frontal layer intact, cutting a secondary label in a secondary label zone within the thickness of the second laminated material, forming a label outline in the first frontal layer, and removing a portion of the first frontal layer, creating a cavity that arranges a handle portion of the hanging handle.
