A coupon manufacturing machine assembly (10) for producing a two-sided coupon card (78). The coupon card (78) is fabricated from a continuous sheet of stock (26) wherein the sheet of stock (26) has an adhesive layer (30) and a release film (32) applied to a bottom surface (34). A printing station (12) prints indicia on a top surface (36) of the continuous sheet of stock (12) in two parallel rows. The two parallel rows define a first strip (38) and a second strip (40) of the stock (26). A laminating device (14) applies a clear laminate (46) to the top surface (36) of the stock (26) for viewing the indicia. A cutting device (16) separates the continuous sheet of stock (26) into the first strip (38) and the second strip (40) and an inverting device (18) rotates the second strip (40) 180° relative to the first strip (38). More specifically, the second strip (40) passes through a first turn bar (52), a spacing roller (58), and then through a second turn bar (54) to effectuate the 180° rotation. A striping device (20) removes the release film (32) from the first strip (38) to expose the adhesive layer (30). The adhesive layer (30) of the first strip (38) is moved into a bonded relationship with the release film (32) of the second strip (40). Specifically, a coupling device (22) mates and adheres the adhesive layer (30) of the first strip (38) with the release film (32) of the second strip (40) to form a series of two-sided coupon cards (78) with the indicia printed on both sides thereof.

Cette invention concerne une machine à fabriquer des cartes-coupons (10) qui permet de produire des cartes-coupons (78) imprimés sur les deux faces à partir d'une bande continue de papier carton (26) portant une couche adhésive (30) et une pellicule pelable (32) sur sa face inférieure (34). La bande passe dans un poste d'impression (12) qui imprime sur sa face supérieure (36) deux rangées parallèles de texte ou de symboles. Les deux rangées parallèles définissent une première laize (38) et une seconde laize (40). Un poste de plastification (14) dépose une pellicule transparente (46) sur la face supérieure (36) de la bande (26). Un dispositif de coupe (16) découpe la bande (26) en deux laizes (38, 40) et un inverseur (18) fait tourner la deuxième laize sur 180 degrés par rapport à la première laize (38). Plus précisément, la seconde laize (40) passe sur un premier rouleau d'inversion (52), un rouleau espaceur (58) puis sur un second rouleau d'inversion (54) qui complète la rotation sur 180 degrés. Un dispositif peleur (20) enlève la pellicule pelable (32) de la première laize (38) pour exposer la couche adhésive (30). La face adhésive (30) de la laize (38) est appliquée contre la pellicule pelable (32) de la seconde laize (40). Plus précisément, un dispositif de collage presse la face adhésive (30) de la première laize contre la pellicule pelable (32) de la seconde laize (40) pour former une série de cartes-coupons imprimées sur les deux faces (78)
