(54) Printed rigid multiple tags, printable with a thermal transferprinter for marking of electrotechnical and electronic elements


(57) Printed multiple tags for marking electro technical and/or electronic elements manufactured from a rigid plate (1) consisting of various comb-shaped elements (1A, 1A', 1B,1B') obtained by injection moulding of thermoplastic material, these comb-shaped components being separated and/or separable by through-passing cutting lines and/or non through-passing (2) pre-fracture lines separating the various interpenetrating teeth (3A, 3A', 3B, 3B', etc.) and by non-through pre-fracture lines (4) to facilitate detachment of the tooth assemblies (1A, 1A', 1B, 1B', etc.) and detachment of the printed tags (3A, 3A', 3B, 3B', etc.) from these comb shaped assemblies; these tags (3A, 3A', 3B, 3B', etc.) being marked by a thermal transfer printer, printing being coordinated by a computer controlled system; these marked tags are fitted in suitable supports (5), they are detached from their comb-shaped element and they are mounted on the electronic elements to be marked or may be detached and mounted on electronic elements already provided with a support.
