Abstract: An auxiliary label device for attaching to an object, such as a container having a side wall, includes a label enclosure that includes a longitudinal slot therethrough, a bottom side, and a top side. A rotatable spool fixed within the label enclosure is fixed with a first end of a label that traverses the slot of the label enclosure. A spring connected between the label enclosure and the spool urges the spool to wind the label around the spool in a coiled configuration. A second opposing end of the label is attached to the container, and with the spool and label under tension of the spring to urge the label around the spool, the label enclosure is urged to contact the container. The label thereafter is unwound from the spool in an extended configuration for viewing when the label enclosure is manually grasped and pulled away from the container.

Abstract: Subject matter described in this disclosure relates to a label applicator for varied surfaces. In some instances, the label applicator may include one or more elements that may adjust to individual package properties and may adjust from one package to the next. For example, in one aspect the label applicator may include a label-retaining surface that is nonlinear. In other examples, the label applicator may include a force attenuator that dampens compressive forces between the label applicator and the package. In a further example, the label applicator may include an articulating joint that permits pivotable adjustment when a label applicator contacts a package. In yet another example, the label applicator may include a magnetic coupling attaching the label applicator to an actuator to provide a breakaway and reattachment mechanism.
