Abstract

See full text

A label handling apparatus (40) connected to an air source (90) selectively providing both a positive air pressure and an air suction has a plate (70, 100) which receives a label (26) from a peeler (34) across a lower surface (46) of the plate (100). The plate (100) includes a plurality of holes (102)having upper ends in fluid communication with the air source (90) and lower ends intersecting the lower surface (46) of the plate (|00). Pins (60) are disposed for sliding motion within the plate (70, 100) to selectively block and unblock the fluid communication between selected ones of the holes (102) and the air source (26). By simply moving the pins (60) to cover or uncover selected holes (102), the apparatus can be quickly adjusted to accommodate any size label.
