Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0397558A1] Machine characterised in that it comprises a device (1) for discontinuous presentation of the label sleeves, a device (4) for the continuous moving-past of the bottles to be labelled, an assembly (2) for transferring the sleeves comprising several independent carriages which are movable over an endless guiding track (10), a driven and endless flexible band (18) rotating over guiding means (171, 177) in the vicinity of the guiding track (10), means (18, 19, 20) providing the linkage of the flexible band and the carriages, this flexible band (18) having locally at least one zone (181) which moves perpendicular to the band, in the form of a loop, for the instantaneous stopping of the carriages so that they can receive a sleeve from the device (1). The machine may optionally comprise an assembly (3) which receives the sleeves from the transfer assembly (2) and, by the agency of gripping devices (23), places these sleeves over the bottles. <IMAGE>
