Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle sticker for displaying characters and numerical values such as a maximum load capacity and a fifth wheel load on a vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a sticker indicating a maximum load capacity, a fifth wheel load, or the like is a value determined by the Land Transport Bureau, which is an external office of the Ministry of Transport, based on an application, and is previously sold at a store in the station. It is for selecting and purchasing a matching one from among the printed ones and sticking it to the right place on the vehicle.

[0003] The "maximum loading capacity" refers to "the maximum loading capacity that can be loaded within a range where safety operation can be ensured in conformity with security standards", and is always provided on the tail side of a vehicle (for cargo). It is mandatory to put it. The "fifth wheel load" refers to "the load applied to the connection between the towed vehicle and the towed vehicle in a towed vehicle such as a trailer" and must be affixed to the tail side of the vehicle (towed vehicle). Have been.

The number of the sticker indicating the maximum load capacity or the fifth wheel load has 3 to 5 digits. Usually, "1" is common to "0" and "10" and above are variable. Therefore, in order to satisfy all of the figures, the number of stickers would be enormous, but it was necessary for the shop in the station to have all of them.

[0005]

However, having a huge number of stickers in the above-mentioned stalls as described above was not only difficult to store and organize, but also required a large production cost. Choosing a sticker wasn't too much.

Further, there are naturally "good" and "no good" as numerical values such as the maximum load capacity and the fifth wheel load. When the sticker happens to come out, various problems have occurred, such as the adhesive applied to the sticking surface being dried and the adhesive strength being lost.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention is to solve the above-mentioned various problems at once, and an object of the present invention is to provide a single sticker with a desired value without preparing a large number of stickers. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicle sticker that can be easily processed.

[0008]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a vehicle sticker sticker in which necessary characters, a plurality of digits and a unit symbol are displayed side by side. In addition to displaying, the variable part of the number is displayed in seven segments for each number, and the unnecessary part of the segment is filled with a writing implement (oil-based ink) of the same color as the surrounding color. , So that it can be easily processed (drawn out) into a desired numerical value.

The invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the color around the white number is black, and the segment is painted out and processed into a desired number so that it is easily available. It is configured so that black oil-based ink that hardly causes a difference can be used.

[0010]

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a perspective view showing a main part of the sticker of the present application, FIG. 2 is an enlarged cross-sectional view of the sticker of the present application, FIG. 3 is a view showing a state where an unnecessary portion of the sticker of the present application is filled with segments, and FIG. It is a top view of a sticker.

The sticker 1 of the present application is, as shown in FIGS.
The release sheet 3 is temporarily attached to the adhesive applied surface of the sticker main body 2 having the adhesive S applied to the back surface. The material of the sticker main body 2 uses PET (polyethylene terephthalate), but is not particularly limited. As the adhesive S, a material suitable for a metal surface is selected because it is applied to a vehicle, but a PET-based adhesive may be used.

The surface of the sticker main body 2 is colored in silver (matte finish) and black (represented by a horizontal stripe pattern, FIG. 4 is represented by solid painting). A number 5 (five digits in the illustrated example) and a unit symbol 6 are arranged in this order and displayed (printed) in white. Here, “white” means that the ground color is exposed. Therefore, if the ground color is silver, the white part is silver, if the ground color is white, the white part is white, Of course, if the color is yellow, the white part becomes yellow. In order to realize the present invention, it is enough that at least only the numeral 5 is outlined.

FIG. 1 shows a part of "amount" as the character 4, which is the "amount" of one character at the end of "maximum loading capacity" as shown in FIG. . In addition, in FIG. 4B, “fifth wheel load” is shown as the character 4, and in FIG. 4C, “vehicle gross weight”, “axle load”, and “adjacent load” are shown in three levels. Of course, the characters of the sticker 1 of the present application are not limited to these.

[0014] Of the plurality of digits (five digits),
The place of “1” is common (fixed) to “0”, but “1”
Since the digits above the “0” are variable, the number of the variable portion is displayed as “day” in seven segments for each digit. As shown in FIG. 3A, the unnecessary segments are painted out by using a writing implement P of black ink of the same color as the surrounding color (black K in this example) displayed in white as shown in FIG. That's why. Note that, in FIG. 3A, for the sake of simplicity, the filled segments are indicated by dot patterns for clear distinction.

The surroundings of the white characters 4, the numerals 5, and the unit symbols 6 do not necessarily have to be "black", but in this example, they are "black". This is because black oil-based ink can be used as the writing instrument P when the segments are painted and processed as described above, the black is easy to obtain, and the black is hardly affected by the difference in lightness. This is because it becomes less noticeable as shown in FIG.

In the numeral 5, "0" in the place of "1"
In this example, "0" is displayed in six segments in order to balance with the number of the variable part, but "0" may be displayed in Gothic type. Similarly, the unit symbol 6 is displayed as “kg” in a plurality of segments for the sake of balance with the notation of the numeral 5, but may be displayed as “kg” in Gothic. The unit symbol 6 may be "ton" as shown in FIG.

Next, how to use the sticker 1 of the present application will be described. First, a numerical value determined as the maximum loading capacity at the Land Transport Office based on the application is purchased for one sticker 1 (various sizes) of the application sticker 1 sold at a store in the office. Since the number of the variable portion is displayed as "day" in seven segments for each number, this portion is processed as follows.

That is, if the white surrounding color is black, an unnecessary segment among the above segments is painted out using black oil-based ink as the writing implement P. As a result, the filled-in segments are assimilated with the surrounding black, and FIG.
As shown in (b), a desired numerical value emerges.

Next, the release sheet 3 temporarily attached to the back surface of the sticker 1 of the present application is peeled off, and the adhesive applied surface of the sticker main body 2 is exposed, and the sticker 2 is attached to a necessary portion of the vehicle.
This ends the work. Therefore, if a single type (various sizes) of the present sticker is provided for each required character in a stand in the station of the Land Transportation Bureau, the numerical value determined by the Bureau will be no matter what the numerical value is, Is easy to use and eliminates the need to create and stock a huge number of stickers.

[0020]

As described above, according to the present invention, in a vehicle sticker sticker in which necessary characters, a plurality of digits and a unit symbol are displayed side by side, at least the numerals are displayed in white, and among the numerals, Since the variable part numbers are displayed in seven segments for each number,
An excellent effect is obtained in that unnecessary segments can be easily processed (drawn out) into desired numbers by painting them out with a writing instrument of the same color as the surrounding color.

Further, the invention according to the second aspect is characterized in that the color around the white number is black, so that the segment in which the number of the variable portion is displayed for each number is painted out. In the case of processing into a desired number, a black oil-based ink that is easy to obtain and hardly causes a difference in lightness can be used.
