Patent NZ-250087-A (NZ)
Title: Friction welded thermoplastics strap joint; peripheral joint pressure is released before central joint pressure
Inventor: KOBIELLA ROBERT J
IPC: B29C65/00
Filed: 1993-10-28
Abstract: The appts. (30) comprises essentially an anvil (32) and an opposed strap engaging member (80), with serrated faces (34, 112) through which the strap (U,L) passes. Anvil (32) has positioner that allows it to squeeze strap (U,L) against member (80) and plunger (92) at a first position, against plunger (92) only at a second position, and to disengage wholly at a third position. Strap engaging member (80) has a coaxial spring-loaded plunger (92) and is mounted on bearings (60) in cavity (54) of drive shaft (46), which itself is mounted on bearings (44) in bore (42) of support frame (40). The axis (58) of member (80) is offset (X) from the axis (48) of drive shaft (46), so rotation of the drive shaft confers an orbital motion to member (80). When the motion is applied to strap (U,L) clamped between anvil (32) and member (80), it creates friction between the strip faces and forms a friction weld conventionally. When anvil (32) is moved to the second position, the orbital motion is disengaged and smooth-faced plunger (92) maintains pressure on strap (U,L) while the weld cools.

Patent NZ-563972-A (NZ)
Title: Labeling machine using multiple bellows where a label is marked as it is transfered to the product to be labeled
Inventor: GRIFFIN NEIL
IPC: B31D1/02
Filed: 2006-08-28
Abstract: In an automatic labelling machine used to apply labels (160) to produce is disclosed. The plastic labels have information applied to them by laser (40) while being transferred from a label carrier strip to the produce by a label applicator. The label applicator has a plurality of bellows (23) carried on a rotary applicator head (20). Each label (160) is carried on the tip of a single bellows (23). The labels (160) have a plurality of layers, including a translucent plastic substrate, a translucent layer of adhesive carried by the back or reverse surface of the substrate, a light absorbent layer adjacent the front surface of the substrate, and a thermo-chromic layer adjacent the front surface of and in thermal contact with the heat absorbent layer. The machine is able to sense at least one variable characteristic of each of the individual items of produce using a sensing means (90) and the laser (40) produces a human or machine readable code representative of the variable sensed on the label (160) to be applied to the produce. This is done when the label (160) is carried on the tip of a bellows (23) and prior to application. The laser (40) is positioned so that its output is directed at the back surface of a label (160). To create the code on the label (160) the laser output passes through the adhesive layer and through the plastic substrate of each label (160), and is partially absorbed by the light absorbent layer. This then creates heat by re-radiating of IR effecting portions of the thermo-chromic layer inducing them to change colour.
