CA 2704756

Labels are permanently attached to a substrate (24), e.g., a tissue cassette, by use of a staking device (1). The device comprises a staker assembly (2) and a cassette fixture assembly (4). The cassette fixture assembly includes a slot (20) and a clamping assembly (31) for securing the cassette (15) within the device. The staker assembly includes a set of probes (72, 74) that are heated and sequentially moved into a position to burn a hole in a label (53) that is provisionally attached to the cassette, and then the substrate is melted and displaced through the hole to form a collar bond that permanently attaches the label to the cassette. The label remains attached to the cassette when exposed to harsh environmental conditions, e.g., high heat, high humidity, solvents, etc.

L'invention vise à fixer de façon permanente des étiquettes à un substrat (24), par ex. une boîte de serviettes en papier, en utilisant un dispositif (1) de poinçonnage. Le dispositif comporte un ensemble poinçon (2) et un ensemble fixation (4) de cassette. L'ensemble fixation de cassette comprend une fente (20) et un ensemble (31) de serrage servant à fixer la cassette (15) à l'intérieur du dispositif. L'ensemble poinçon comprend un jeu de sondes (72, 74) qui sont chauffées et amenées séquentiellement dans une position leur permettant de pratiquer thermiquement un trou dans une étiquette (53) fixée provisoirement à la cassette, puis le substrat est fondu et déplacé à travers le trou pour former un joint en collerette qui fixe définitivement l'étiquette à la cassette. L'étiquette reste fixée à la cassette même lorsqu'elle est exposée à des conditions environnementales difficiles, par ex. une forte chaleur, une humidité élevée, des solvants, etc.
