Container labeling machine

#The present invention relates to a container labeling machine.

#As is known, container labeling machines commonly have a rotating carousel, provided with plates for supporting the individual containers to be labeled, and a labeling assembly or station, which is laterally adjacent to the carousel and is designed to apply a label to each container carried by the carousel.

#Current labeling machines can be provided with a labeling assembly of the so-called “roll-fed” type, in which the labels are obtained starting from a ribbon wound in a roll, on which multiple labels are printed continuously.

#Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become better apparent from the description of some preferred but not exclusive embodiments of the container labeling machine according to the invention, illustrated by way of non-limiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:

#FIG. 1 is a schematic top plan view of the machine according to the invention in a first embodiment;

#FIG. 2 is a schematic top plan view of a second embodiment of the machine according to the invention with a different type of labeling assemblies;

#With reference to the cited figures, the labeling machine according to the invention, designated generally by the reference numeral 1, comprises a base structure 2 which forms an input region 3 of the containers 4 to be labeled and at least one output region 5 of the labeled containers 6.

#For example, the input region 3 and the output region 5 are arranged on mutually opposite sides of the base structure 2 of the machine.

#The base structure 2 supports conveyance means 7 which allow to convey the containers from the input region 3 to the output region 5.
