Description

The present invention relates to a partial pressure-sensitive adhesive label comprising a pressure-sensitive adhesive part adhered to an adherend by an adhesive layer and a non-adhesive part not adhered to the adherend.

Conventionally, in various fields such as manufacturing, logistics, and sales, printers are used to print variable information such as barcodes that encode characters and predetermined information on labels, and the contents are recognized without human intervention. An automatic recognition system is used. For example, on a label printed by such a printer, the product name, barcode, or price is printed, and the product name or barcode part is used as an adhesive part that is affixed to the product. As a non-adhesive portion that is not attached, there is a label that can easily remove this price portion. In addition, there is a label that is easily pasted by using only one end portion of the label as a non-adhesive portion in a label that is attached to a shelf or the like for displaying products.

FIG. 11 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a conventional partial adhesive label. A conventional partial pressure-sensitive adhesive label 20 is provided with a release agent layer 5 on the surface of a tape-like release paper 6, and label pieces 21 arranged at equal intervals are temporarily attached to the surface of the tape-like release paper 6. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is provided on the entire back surface of the label piece 21, and the label sewing machine 13 formed in the width direction of the label piece 21 is used as a boundary on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 only on one side thereof. The non-adhesive layer 22 is covered. This non-adhesive layer 22 is made of a chemical such as varnish, printing ink, calcium carbonate-containing powder, etc., and is applied and printed from the surface of the adhesive layer 3 to make it non-adhesive.

It is. Therefore, in order to manufacture such a conventional partial pressure-sensitive adhesive label 20, a process using the special equipment described above is required, and there is a problem that it cannot be manufactured by a general label printer.
In the conventional partial pressure-sensitive adhesive label 20, the non-adhesive layer 22 is coated on the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, and the portion of the non-adhesive layer 22 floats with respect to the tape-like release paper 6. When printing on the label piece 21 using the non-adhesive layer 22, the portion of the non-adhesive layer 22 is conveyed as the tip in the traveling direction, or the non-adhesive layer 22 is larger than the area of the adhesive layer 3 exposed in the label piece 21, for example. If the area is large, there is a problem that the label piece 21 is peeled off in the printer and the label is clogged.
Furthermore, in the conventional partial adhesive label 20, the non-adhesive layer 22 is provided only on one end of the label piece 21 without providing the label sewing machine 13, and the non-adhesive layer is adhered to the adherend after the label piece 21 is adhered. Although there is one that facilitates the replacement of the label piece 21 by removing the portion 22, in such a conventional partial adhesive label 20, only one end portion of the label piece 21 provided with the non-adhesive layer 22 is provided. There was a problem that it was easy to break because it floated up.

May be provided. By providing the non-cut portion 12 in this way, for example, when the partial adhesive label 1a is wound in a roll shape or when printing is issued by a printer, the first release paper 9 or the second release paper 10 is used. However, inadvertent peeling from the label piece 4 can be prevented. About the number of this non-cutting part 12, an appropriate number can be provided according to the shape and length of the said cut | notch 11. Further, the length of the non-cut portion 12 can be set to an appropriate length according to the position and number of the non-cut portions 12 with respect to the cut 11. However, since the label strip 4 removes the first release paper 9 when the label piece 4 is attached to the adherend, the number and length of the non-cut portions 12 may be the minimum necessary. Of course, the cut portion 12 may not be provided.

In the example of FIG. 2, for a length of 35 mm in the width direction of the release paper 6, a cut 11 having a length of 9 mm, a non-cut portion 12 having a length of 1 mm, and a cut 11 having a length of 15 mm are continuously formed from one end. A non-cut portion 12 having a length of 1 mm is provided at two symmetrical positions such as a non-cut portion 12 having a length of 1 mm and a cut 11 having a length of 9 mm.

In order to use such a partial adhesive label 1a, for example, the first release paper 9a is removed from the cut 11a corresponding to the label piece 4a. Then, the second release paper 10a and the continuous first release paper 9b are separated from the cut 11b, and the second release paper 10a is temporarily attached to the back surface of the label piece 4a, and the label piece 4a is released from the release paper 6. To peel off.

Compared with the partial adhesive label 1a of the first embodiment described above, the partial adhesive label 1b is not provided with the label sewing machine 13 on the label pieces 4c, 4d, etc., and the cut line 11e provided on the release paper 6 is provided. , 11f and the like are different. For example, the printer prints information such as DEF indicating the product name, a bar code encoding predetermined information such as the product name, and 200 yen indicating the price on the printing unit 2 on the surface of the label pieces 4c and 4d. Is done. Such a partial adhesive label 1b, for example, affixes label pieces 4c and 4d to a product shelf to display the product name and price to the customer, and the sales side reads the barcode and uses it for order management. Used for shelf label.

FIG. 7 is an explanatory view of the partially adhesive label according to the second embodiment viewed from the side where the release paper can be seen over the entire surface. Moreover, FIG. 8 is explanatory drawing which looked at another example of the partial adhesive label of 2nd Embodiment from the side which can see a peeling paper in the whole surface. The partial adhesive label 1b is provided with cuts 11e and 11f for dividing the release paper 6 for each of the label pieces 4c and 4d. For example, the cut line 11e is provided in an inverted U shape from one side in the length direction of the release paper 6 corresponding to the label piece 4c, and the release paper 6 is connected to the first release paper 9c and the second release paper 10c. , Can be divided into two. Similarly, by providing a cut 11f corresponding to the next label piece 4d, the release paper 6 can be divided into two parts, a first release paper 9d and a second release paper 10d. . In addition, when the partial adhesive label 1b is cut for each of the label pieces 4c and 4d, the first release papers 9c and 9d are also formed in an inverted U shape corresponding to the cuts 11e and 11f provided in the inverted U shape. However, when the release paper 6 is provided with a plurality of cuts 11e and 11f as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the first release papers 9c and 9d are connected.

Further, as in the first embodiment, at least one or more breaks 11e and 11f that divide the release paper 6 into first release papers 9c and 9d and second release papers 10c and 10d are provided. The non-cut portion 12 may be provided. Of course, the number, length, and position of the non-cut portions 12 can be appropriately provided as described above. In order to use such a partial adhesive label 1b, for example, the label piece 4c and the second release paper 10c are picked with a finger, and the second release paper 10c is temporarily attached to the back surface of the label piece 4c, The label piece 4 c is peeled from the release paper 6.

FIG. 9 is an explanatory diagram viewed from the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer side after removing the first release paper from the label piece of the partial pressure-sensitive adhesive label of the second embodiment. On the back surface of the label piece 4c, the first release paper 9c is removed, and the adhesive layer 3 is exposed. The portion where the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 is exposed becomes the pressure-sensitive adhesive portion 7c that is adhered to the adherend. Moreover, the part with the second release paper 10c temporarily attached to the label piece 4c becomes the non-adhesive part 8c that is not attached to the adherend. The shape and area of the adhesive portion 7c and the non-adhesive portion 8c are determined by the shape of the cut 11e described above. When the label piece 4c is attached to the adherend and peeled off, the adhesive strength of the adhesive layer 3 is determined. Depending on the smoothness of the adherend or the adherend, the shape and area can be made appropriate.

FIG. 10 is an explanatory diagram in which the label piece of the partial adhesive label of the second embodiment is attached to an adherend. The adherend 15b is, for example, a shelf for displaying merchandise, and the label piece 4c is temporarily attached with the second release paper 10c on the back surface thereof by the adhesive portion 7c that is the portion where the adhesive layer 3 is exposed. It is stuck on the adherend 15b as it is. The second release paper 10c is provided so as to protrude from one end of the label piece 4c. The portion of the second release paper 10c that protrudes from one end of the label piece 4c is a knob 14c that is simply in close contact with the adherend 15b and can be easily picked and pulled up.

Therefore, by picking the knob 14c with a finger and moving it so as to be separated from the adherend 15b, the knob 14c is gradually separated from the adherend 15b from the adhesive portion 7c adjacent to the knob 14c. Therefore, the label piece 4c can be easily peeled from the adherend 15b using the knob 14c as a trigger.

As described above, the shape and area of the adhesive portion 7c and the non-adhesive portion 8c are determined by the shape of the aforementioned cut line 11e, and when the label piece 4c is attached to the adherend 15b and then peeled off, the adhesive layer 3 and the smoothness of the adherend 15b can be adjusted to an appropriate shape and area. In such a label piece 4c, if the area of the adhesive part 7c is reduced and the area of the non-adhesive part 8c is increased, the label piece 4c may be peeled off from the adherend 15b. On the contrary, the non-adhesive portion 8c is formed to have a small area. However, when the area of the adhesive portion 7c to be adhered to the adherend 15b is large, if the label piece 4c is formed of a general paper substrate, the label piece 4c is peeled off when peeled from the adherend 15b. Depending on the force, direction, and speed, the label piece 4c may be torn off or the adhesive layer 3 and the label piece 4c may be left on the adherend 15b.

For this reason, the said label piece 4c can be comprised with a synthetic paper or a film-type base material. In other words, synthetic paper that has been processed into a fiber like paper by adding fillers to polyethylene or polypropylene, or film-based substrates such as polypropylene or polyester (polyethylene terephthalate), or simple substances, laminates, or composites of these Can be used. In this way, by configuring the label piece 4c with synthetic paper or a film-based substrate, when the label piece 4c is peeled from the adherend 15b, the label piece 4c may be torn off or the adherend 15b. Can be reliably peeled without leaving the adhesive layer 3 and the label piece 4c. In addition, since the label piece 4c is composed of synthetic paper or a film-based substrate, the label piece 4c is not damaged, so that the label piece 4c is attached to and peeled from the adherend 15b. Can be repeated. Therefore, for example, the attachment position of the label piece 4c can be easily changed with a change in the display width of the product.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, Embodiment can be changed suitably in the range of the technical idea of this invention. In addition, the number, position, shape, and the like of the constituent members are not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be set to a suitable number, position, shape, and the like in practicing the present invention.
