Abstract
An apparatus is described by which a label bearing tape can be transported intermittently in a manually operated labeler. The device contains a transporting carriage (19) reciprocable along the label bearing tape (5). In the carriage a latch (22) with a clamping face (25) is held in frictional engagement with the label bearing tape so that during movement of the carriage in one direction it freely slides on the label bearing tape, while during movement of the carriage in the other direction it clamps the label bearing tape against an abutment surface (26) with self-locking action. The clamping face of the latch is covered with abrasive paper, preferably with an aluminous abrasive paper.
