A pharmaceutical dispenser includes a conveyor including a receiving end for receiving an article to be labelled, a discharge end for discharging the article after the article has been labelled into a dispensing container, a label applicator for attaching at least part of a label to the article whilst the article travels on the conveyor, and a resiliently deformable object for forcing at least part of the at least partially attached label onto the article. The dispensing container receives the article, as the article falls under a force of gravity from the conveyor at its discharge end into the dispensing container. The conveyor includes a dispensing opening in a front side of the pharmaceutical dispenser through which the article is accessible and removable from the dispensing container.

A sorting device (1) for loading, conveying and discharging objects (9), the sorting device (1) comprising: trays (2) each intended for carrying an object (9) in a conveyance direction (T) from a loading position (L) to a discharge position (D), a drive system (6) for conveying the trays (2) along a path (26), a pusher arm (5) arranged on the tray (2) for by means of pushing away, discharging an object (9) present on the tray (2), wherein pushing away takes place substantially transverse to the conveyance direction (T) of the tray (2), a scanning device (3) arranged along the path (26) at a scanning position (30) downstream the loading position (L), and arranged for scanning the object (9) during conveyance at the scanning position (30), a labelling device (4) arranged along the path (26) at a labelling position (40) downstream the scanning position (30), and arranged to compose a label based on the object (9) scanned by the scanning device (3), and to affix the label during conveyance on the object (9) based on the scanned object (9) present on the tray (2).

A labelling device having a label dispenser and transfer device for transferring a row of labels delivered to the transfer device to an article web. The transfer device may include at least one vertically adjustable slide assembly mounted thereon for pressing the labels onto the article web, and the slide assembly may comprise a base plate and a plurality of pressing elements. The slide assembly may further comprise at least one cassette module assembled with the base plate, and one or more of the pressing elements may be arranged on each of the cassette modules.

This invention relates to a labelling apparatus (1) and method for labelling different shapes, sizes and material types of packaging (3, 36) such as cardboard or plastics material boxes, plastics or other material bottles and sachets all containing medicaments being dispensed. The labelling apparatus (1) includes a conveyor means (4) having a receiving end for receiving an article (3, 36) to be labelled from a chute (2) and a discharge end for discharging the article (3, 36) once labelled to a receiving container (9), a label applicator (15) for attaching a label (29) to the article and a label securing means (25) for securely forcing the label (29) onto the article.

An automatic, high speed labeling machine is provided for applying individual labels to large and variable size produce items. The label strips used are much larger and heavier than known label strips used for small produce such as apples and pears. The increased weight causes label strip overrun when the labeler is paused and also causes slippage of the label strip. A label strip deflector is provided which causes the larger and heavier label strip to fold back on itself rather than to overrun and foul the application of labels. The drive rollers are modified to eliminate slippage of the heavier label strip.

A labeler comprises at least one pusher assembly for pressing labels onto an article web, the pusher assembly being mounted to be adjustable in height. The pusher assembly comprises a base plate, at least one pin cartridge connected to the base plate, and several press-on pins that are received by the pin cartridge and that are mounted at the pin cartridge in a slidable manner between a respective extended position and a retracted position. The press-on pins are each formed as integrally manufactured injection molded parts.

Disclosed by the present invention is a device for embedding electronic tag, which comprises: a tag separating unit configured to separate an electronic tag from a base film; a tag conveying unit configured to transmit the electronic tag to a setting position; and a tag grasping placing unit configured to grasp and attach an electronic tag. As an electronic tag being implanted on a product, firstly separating the electronic tag to be placed from the base film thereon by the tag separating unit, then grasping the separated electronic tag by the tag grasping placing unit, then transmitting the tag grasping placing unit to a setting position by the conveying unit, then attaching the electronic tag on the device by the tag grasping placing unit, that means the completion of the entire process of placement. During which, the actions of separating, grabbing, transmitting and placing are all realized automatically. In comparison with manual work, the present invention could not only improve production efficiency, but also reduce the risks of omission and misplacement, thereby improving the product quality.
