An automatic application device for dispensing an adhesive transfer tape with the liner removed includes a hub for rotatably supporting a roll of adhesive transfer tape and an application head for pressing the adhesive transfer tape unwound from the roll onto a product to which it is to be applied.

An automatic application device for dispensing an adhesive transfer tape with the liner removed includes a hub for rotatably supporting a roll of adhesive transfer tape and an application head for pressing the adhesive transfer tape unwound from the roll onto a product to which it is to be applied. An idler roller is disposed above the application head to pull the liner away from the application head. A motor driven take-up roller and corresponding nip roller are provided to pull the liner along its path over said idler roller away from the application head. A brake roller is provide along the path of the transfer tape between the roll and the application head to selectively stop the tape\s advance. When the brake roller is released, the product to which the adhesive is applied pulls the tape underneath the application head, unwinding it from the roll. When the brake roller is stopped, the tape stops advancing and the adhesive strip carried on the liner is broken. A compensation roller provides that when the head is lifted the tape is maintained in a fixed position relative to the head so that the leading edge of the adhesive on the tape liner returns to the proper position when the head is lowered.

An automatic application device for applying an adhesive transfer tape to a product carried on a conveyor and removing the liner of the tape, said tape arranged in a roll, said device comprising: a frame; hub means mounted to said frame for rotatably supporting said roll of adhesive transfer tape; an application head and means for mounting said head on said frame for pressing the adhesive transfer tape onto a product carried on said conveyor so that the adhesive carried on the tape liner adheres to the product and so that the product pulls said tape from said roll and over said head as the product moves underneath said head, said tape traveling along a path from said roll on said hub means to said application head; liner removal means mounted to said frame for pulling the liner of the tape away from said application head and from the adhesive adhered to the product whereby the transfer of the adhesive from the liner to the product is completed; brake roller means mounted to said frame and disposed in the path of said tape between said hub means and said application head for selectively stopping said tape from advancing over said application head; and said device being operable to apply adhesive from said tape to a product as said product is advanced underneath said head on said conveyor, the advance of said product pulling said tape over said head and thereby unwinding it from said roll provided that said brake is released, the activation of said brake serving to stop the advance of said tape and to break the adhesive carried on said liner.
