A machine for applying pressure sensitive sample chips to a card includes a linear conveyor for receiving and transporting cards, and at least one sample application station disposed along the conveyor. The sample application station includes a feed roller overlying and spaced from the conveyor for holding a spool containing at least one row of individual pressure sensitive sample chips on a substrate. A plate has an edge immediately overlying and spaced from the conveyor to permit passage of cards beneath the edge. A drive roller is spaced from the feed roller and from the plate for drawing the substrate from the spool on the feed roller over the plate edge to separate the sample chips from the substrate and apply the chips to the cards. A resilient roller preferably is disposed adjacent to the plate edge for pressing the sample chips removed from the substrate onto the cards transported on the conveyor.

Machine and method for applying pressure sensitive sample chips to a card

A modular color display system with interchangeable components and modules which permit assembling the display system in a plurality of configurations using the same components. Such configuration reduces the cost of assembling and manufacturing by minimizing the number non-interchangeable parts in the display system. Lifting points in an upper portion of the display assembly permit assembling an upper portion joining a plurality of frames and lifting them using a forklift. Another aspect of the invention provides a paint selection kiosk as part to the display assembly.

A plurality of separate display modules are interchangeably installed on a shelf of a cooperating cabinet structure and arranged to provide concavely curved display panels mounting selected arrangements of illuminated sample chips, an interactive video display, and brochure receptacles. The structure is provided with an integral sprinkler water distribution system and may include a two-part chip mounting mechanism which facilitates changing out of sample chips.
