Abstract
An apparatus for decorating the outer surface of a hollow article, such as a bottle, with a label, which includes a turret for transporting the article and a label from a loading to an unloading location while simultaneously rotating the article around its own axis which facilitates the label to be transferred to the outer surface of the bottle. The turret also includes nozzles which engage each article at the decorating station. Furthermore, air may be blown into the article through the nozzle to support the article in instances when said article is made of a plastic or other deformable material. The apparatus also includes an indexing station for turning the article to a preelected orientation before the application of the label. The article is preferably mounted in such manner that the label is not applied on a seam of the bottle.
