Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、ボトル等の物品に、キャップシール又は商品表示ラベル等として装着される切取り線付き熱収縮性フィルムチューブの改良に係り、詳しくは物品への装着操作性にすぐれていると共に、切取り線の破切機能を高めボトル口部の開封操作や、使用済みボトルのチューブとボトルの分離回収作業等を容易に行ない得るようにしたものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
延伸加工により熱収縮性を付与されたプラスチックフィルム(熱収縮性フィルム)をチューブに成形し、フィルムの熱収縮力を物品の表面に対する締着力として、ボトル等の口部を封緘するキャップシール又は商品表示ラベル等として装着することは広く実施されている。図14はチューブ(10)(熱収縮性フィルムをセンターシールsすることにより形成される)をボトル(20)に被せ、加熱収縮処理によりボトル胴部に装着した例である。キャップシールの場合は、チューブ(10)を、図16のようにキャップ形状に予備成形したうえ、ボトル口部に被せ加熱収縮処理する方法を採ることもある。熱収縮性フィルムチューブ(10)には、切取り線(11)(フィルムの延伸方向と交叉する向きに延在)を設けるのが一般である。切取り線(11)は、使用後のボトルとチューブの分別回収や、キャップシールされたボトル口部の開封を容易化するのに不可欠である。
【0003】
図10および図11はチューブ(10)に対する切取り線の形設態様の例を示している。図10は1条の切取り線(11)を形成した例であり、図11(1)は、チューブ(10)に2条の平行な切取り線(11)を形成しテープ状に切り取るようにした例、同図(2)はその2条の切取り線のそれぞれが二重線(幅約1〜2mm程度の隙間をなす2本の線からなる)として形成された例である。
従来、これらの切取り線(11)は、打ち抜き機(ダイロール,打ちミシン等)により形成されている。これは、刃物(トムソン刃等)をフィルムに押付けて打抜くものであり、その切取り線は、図11(同図(1):平面図、(2):D-D矢視断面図)に示すように線状に並んだスリット(刃物の打ち抜き痕)(15)の列として形成される。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
熱収縮性チューブに形成される切取り線(11)は、次の2点を必要とする。一つは、熱収縮性チューブ(10)をボトル等に装着する工程(チューブの加熱収縮処理)で、切取り線(11)を起点とするチューブの破損を生じないこと、他の一つはボトルの使用(又は廃棄)に際し、ボトル等の表面からチューブ(10)を取り除くための切取り線として良好に機能する(チューブを容易に破切除去し得る)こと、である。しかし、この両特性は相矛盾する性質を有するものであり、以下のように、スリット(15)からなる従来の切取り線では両特性を同時に充足せしめることが困難である。
【0005】
熱収縮性チューブをボトル等に装着する加熱収縮処理において、チューブの熱収縮(減面収縮)に伴い、切取り線のスリット(15)と直交する向き(チューブの円周方向)に引張り力が作用し、図13(1)(2)に示すようにスリット(15)が開口形状に変化すると共に、スリット両端部に応力集中を生じる。しかもスリット(15)の両端近傍は、刃物の打ち抜き時に生じるミクロクラックが散在している。このため、フィルムの材種によりスリット両端から裂け目を生じ、同図(3)のようにチューブの破断をきたすことがある。
【0006】
上記不具合は、スリット(図12)の長さ(l15)を短く、間隔(S15)を大きく設計すれば回避可能である。しかし、その反面チューブの破切除去が困難となる。例えばボトルの廃棄に際して、図15のようにチューブ(10)を切り離そうとしても容易に切取ることができず、指先の力を強めて引張ると、切取り先端(h)が切取り線(11)から逸脱する。このような状態になると、その先を指先の力で切取ることは殆ど不可能である。前記図11のように2条の切取り線(11)を設けテープ状に切取るようにしたチューブの場合も、切取り先端が切取り線からずれ易く、無理に引っ張るとテープがちぎれてしまう。図11(2)は、2条の切取り線のそれぞれを二重線として形成し切取り性を高めることを意図したものであるが、それでも上記不具合の解消は困難である。これらの問題はキャップシールについても同様である。
【0007】
本発明は上記に鑑み、ボトル等の物品に装着する加熱収縮工程におけるチューブの破損を防止すると共に、ボトル等から取り除く際のチューブの切取り操作を容易に行なうことができる切取り線付き熱収縮チューブを提供するものである。
【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の切取り線付きフィルムチューブは、フィルムの延伸方向と交叉する方向に沿って線状に並んだ略円形状の貫通孔である凹陥(12)の列と、該凹陥の列に沿ってその両側に連続又は断続して延在し、頂部高さが周期的な凹凸変化を呈する堤状厚肉部(13)と、該凹陥の周縁に形成された段差状の厚肉縁部(14)と、を有する切取り線(11)が形成された熱収縮性プラスチックフィルムからなる。
【0009】
本発明における切取り線(11)は、略円形状の凹陥(12)(貫通孔又は薄膜面部)の列からなる形態を有していることにより、チューブの装着工程(加熱収縮処理)において、従来の切取り線(スリットの列)のような応力の局所集中とそれに因るフィルムの破損は未然に回避される。後述のようにレーザビーム照射等により形成される切取り線(11)は、スリット切取り線(刃物の打ち抜き)のようなミクロクラックを付随せず、また凹陥(12)の周縁が段差状に厚肉化された形態を呈すること等も、チューブ装着工程におけるフィルムの亀裂/破断の防止に寄与する。更に、凹陥(12)の両側に延在する堤状厚肉部(13)は、厚肉の効果として凹陥の列の両側を強化する。これにより、チューブ(10)をボトル等から破切除去する際の切取り方向のガイド機能が付与され、切取り先端(h)のずれ(図15)を未然に防止し、切取り線(11)の全長に亘る切取りが容易化される。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の熱収縮性チューブの切取り線(1)は、レーザービーム照射など(後述)を適用して形成することができる。以下、切取り線の形態についてレーザービーム照射により形成される切取り線を例に挙げて説明する。
図1は、切取り線(11)の平面形態、図2は、図1のA-A矢視断面、図3はB-B矢視断面、図4はC-C矢視断面をそれぞれ示している。切取り線(11)は、チューブの周方向に対し交叉する向きに形成されている。凹陥(12)は略円形状の貫通孔(12a)であり、一定の間隔(ピッチ)をおいて線状に並んでいる。鎖線(13)は堤状厚肉部(13)の頂部を示し、破線(13)はその裾縁部を示している。
【0011】
凹陥(12)の両側の堤状厚肉部(13)は、凹陥列に沿ってフィルム(F)の表裏両面に延在している。また凹陥(12)は周縁を段差状の厚肉縁部(14)で縁取られている。図2における堤状厚肉部(13)の頂部高さは、凹陥列の方向に周期的な凹凸変化を呈しているが、この凹凸プロフィールは、使用するフィルムの材種・ビーム照射条件に依存するものであり、フィルムの材種及び照射条件の制御により、高低変化の少ない比較的なだらかな形態が与えられる。
【0012】
なお、図2(図1のA-A矢視断面図)における各凹陥(12)の周縁の段差状厚肉部(14)は、隣接する凹陥(12)の段差状厚肉部(14)から離れているが、それと異なって、図5に示すように、隣合う段差状厚肉部(14)同士が連続し平坦な形態を呈する場合もある。
【0013】
図6は、図1の凹陥(12)が薄膜面部(12b)である場合のA-A矢視断面を示している。薄膜面凹陥(12b)の列は、所謂「ハーフカット」切取り線に相当する。薄膜凹陥(12b)と貫通凹陥(12a)と異なる点は、凹陥を横切る薄膜の有無のみであり、薄膜凹陥(12b)の断面形態は、図2〜図5のそれと基本的に同じである。
【0014】
図7は、切取り線(11)の平面形態の他の例を示している。図8はそのA-A矢視断面である。この例における切取り線(11)は、凹陥(12)の両側の堤状厚肉部(13)が断続して延在している点において、前記図2,図5,図6(堤状厚肉部13は連続的に延在)と異なっているが、このような断続形態を有する場合においても、凹陥(12)のピッチが過度に大きくない限り、堤状厚肉部(13)による切取り方向のガイド機能を損なわず、良好な切取り線機能を確保することができる。
【0015】
切取り線(11)の形成は、レーザービーム照射装置(炭酸ガスレーザービーム,アルゴンレーザービーム,YAGレーザービーム等)を用いて、フィルムの連続移送ライン(例えばチューブ成形のためのセンターシール工程)におけるフィルムの連続移送のもとに効率よく実施することができる。ビーム照射によれば、スリット切取り線の形成(刃物の押付け)のようなミクロクラックのない健全なフィルム表面が保持される。
【0016】
フィルム表面に対するビーム照射により、照射された微小領域は瞬時に溶融・蒸発する。熱収縮性フィルム(一軸又は二軸延伸フィルム)の表面に、その延伸方向(二軸延伸の場合は延伸倍率の高い方向=チューブの周方向となる)に対し交叉(典型的には直交)する向きにビームを走査すると、凹陥(12)と堤状厚肉部(13)を有する切取り線(11)が形成される。凹陥(12)を挟む堤状厚肉部(13)等の形成には、フィルムの延伸加工による熱収縮性が主たる寄与をなし、これに軟化溶融に伴う表面張力の作用などが関与しているものと考えられる。
【0017】
切取り線(11)の形態は、フィルムの種類及びビーム照射条件により多様に変化する。従って、使用されるフィルムの材種(ビーム吸収特性,融点,熱伝導率等),その肉厚,延伸加工率等に応じ、ビーム照射条件として、ビーム出力,ビーム焦点の深浅,ビーム走査速度(フィルム面に対する相対速度),ビームのON-OFF周期等を制御することにより、凹陥(12)および堤状厚肉部(13)等のプロフィール(凹陥口径,堤状厚肉部の対向幅・肉厚,凹陥縁部肉厚,凹陥ピッチ等)を任意に調整することができる。
【0018】
切取り線(11)の諸元サイズの具体例について、図9を参照して説明すると、凹陥(12)が貫通孔(12a)である場合、凹陥平均口径(d):約400μm以下、堤状厚肉部の対向幅(凹陥を挟んで向い合う山頂-山頂の距離)(W13):約3d以下、堤状厚肉部の頂部肉厚(t13):1.5t以上(tはフィルムの原厚)、段差状厚肉部の肉厚(t14):1.1t以上(<t13)、凹陥ピッチ(凹陥の中心間距離)(p):1.2d〜3dであるプロフィールが与えられる。その典型例として、凹陥平均口径(d):50〜300μm、堤状厚肉部の対向幅(W13):1.5d〜2.5d、堤状厚肉部の膨出肉厚(t13):1.5t〜4t、段差状部の肉厚(t14):1.1t〜3tである例が挙げられる。
【0019】
凹陥(12)の平面形状について、略円形というのは変形を帯びた円形を包含する意味であり、例えば凹陥を直交する2方向の差渡し径がd,d(但しd2はビーム操作方向の差渡し径,d<d)であるとき、両者の比d/dは約以下であることが好ましい。この範囲であれば、凹陥の平面形状の等方性を損なわれず、チューブの装着工程(加熱収縮)における応力集中とそれに因る支障をきたすことはない。この場合の平均口径(d)はdとdの和を2で除した値である。
【0020】
凹陥(12)が薄膜面部(12b)である場合にも、切取り線の諸元サイズは、上記貫通凹陥(12a)の場合のそれと実質的に異ならない。但し、薄膜凹陥(12b)の中央部の膜厚(t)は、約(1/3)×t以下(tはフィルムの原厚)であるのが好ましい。中央部の膜厚(t)がこれより厚くなると、切取り線(11)の機能(チューブの破切除去性)が低下するからである。なお、薄膜(12b)は部分的に膜面が欠損していても差し支えない。
【0021】
本発明のフィルムチューブのフィルム材種は、一般的な熱収縮性フィルム、例えばポリエステル,ポリプロピレン,ポリスチレン等であり、チューブとして適当な肉厚(例えば約10〜150μm,好ましくは20〜70μm)を有し、延伸加工(延伸倍率は、例えばチューブの周方向に約2〜7倍、それと直交する方向に約1〜1.5倍程度である)により、熱収縮性フィルムとして一般的な熱収縮率(約10〜70%,at90℃)を付与されたものが適宜使用される。
【0022】
切取り線(11)は、前記図10のように1条の線、または図11(1)のようにテープ状に切取るための2条の線として形成される。なお、本発明における切取り線(11)は良好な切取り性能を有するので、1条または2条の切取り線のいずれも、必ずしも図11(2)のような二重線とする必要はないが、二重線とする場合、切取り性能はより一層高められる。切取り線(11)の向きは、必ずしもチューブ(10)の軸に平行である必要はなく、傾斜する向きでもよい。また、胴長方向の全長に亘って連続的に形成されるほか、チューブの切取り性を損なわない範囲において部分的に形成される場合もある。所望により、チューブ(10)の周方向の切取り線を付加した形設態様が採用される場合もある。
【0023】
本発明の熱収縮性フィルムチューブの切取り線は、
(1)線状に並ぶ凹陥(12)が略円形状であることにより、物品への装着(チューブの加熱収縮処理)工程において、従来のスリット切取り線と異なり、チューブの破損を誘起するような応力集中が回避される。
(2)ビーム照射で形成される切取り線は、スリット切取り線と異なってミクロクラックのない健全なフィルム表面性状を有すること等により、チューブ装着工程におけるフィルムの亀裂/破断の防止効果が増強される。
【0024】
(3)凹陥列の両側に延在する堤状厚肉部(13)は、凹陥列の両側を補強し、チューブ切取り時のガイド機能を奏し、チューブを物品から切取る際の切取り先端(h)の逸脱(図15)を防止する。2条の平行な切取り線を形成してテープ状に切取る形態の場合も、テープがちぎれることなく、切取り線(11)の全長に亘る切取りが容易になる。とりわけ、ポリエステル系の熱収縮性フィルム(切取り先端の逸脱/テープ状に切取る場合のテープのちぎれ等を生じ易く、切取りに難渋する材種である)のチューブの切取り線として特に有効である。
【0025】
(4)スリット切取り線の場合、チューブ装着(チューブの加熱収縮処理)時の応力集中に因るチューブの破損を回避しようとすれば、スリット間隔を大きくする必要がある(それに伴いチューブの切取り性が低下する)のに対し、本発明の切取り線の凹陥は、チューブの破損を誘起するような応力集中が回避され、また凹陥の周縁が厚肉部で縁取られていることによる補強効果として、切取り線の凹陥(12)を密に(凹陥ピッチpを小さく)設定し、チューブの切取り性を一層良好にすることができる。
【0026】
(5)ビーム照射によれば、サブミリメートル・オーダー(例えば200〜100μmないしそれ以下)の極微細口径の凹陥を均一に形成することも容易である。貫通凹陥(12a)がこのような極微細径であれば、ボトル等に装着した状態で、約0.3mmないしそれ以下の微小孔径が保持される。切取り線をこのような極微細孔として形成し得ることは、例えばチューブをキャップシールとして飲料ボトルの飲み口を封緘する場合、商品流通過程での不測のトラブル(例えば、微細な虫の侵入等)を防止することができ、安全衛生・品質保証等の面で有利である。凹陥(12)を薄膜凹陥(12b)として形成した場合にも、上記の遮断機能は、薄膜面部のバリアー機能として得ることができる。

【0035】
表2において、比較例のチューブ(B1)は、ボトルへの装着工程で切取り線スリットの開孔変形による仕上がり外観の不具合や切取り線を起点とする破断等をきたし、他方チューブ(B2)は破断等を生じることなくボトルに装着されてはいるが、切取り線の機能が不完全なため、ボトルからの切り離しに支障をきたしている。これに対し、発明例のチューブ(A1〜A5)は、いずれも破断等を生じることなくボトルへの装着を完成し、かつ装着されたボトルからの切り離しも容易に行なわれ、装着操作性と切取り操作性の両特性を兼ね備えている。
【0036】
【発明の効果】
本発明の切取り線付き熱収縮性チューブは、チューブ装着工程における耐破断性等に優れ、フィルムの破損等をきたすことなく健全な装着を完成することができ、しかも装着された物品から切り離す際には切取り線に沿って容易かつ簡単に切取ることができる。また、切取り線を構成する凹陥に極細径をもたせることができるので、キャップシールとして使用する場合の遮断保護機能を強化し、食品・飲料などの封緘手段として、内容物の保護機能を高めることができ、品質保証・安全衛生の確保に資するものである。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an improvement in a heat-shrinkable film tube with a tear line attached to an article such as a bottle as a cap seal or a product label, and more specifically, it has excellent operability for attachment to an article and a tear line. The opening function of the bottle mouth portion, the separation and recovery of the used bottle tube and bottle, and the like can be easily performed.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Cap seals or products that form plastic films (heat-shrinkable films) imparted with heat-shrinkability by stretching into tubes and seal the mouth of bottles etc. using the heat-shrink force of the film as the fastening force to the surface of the article Attaching as a display label or the like is widely practiced. FIG. 14 shows an example in which a tube (10) (formed by center-sealing a heat-shrinkable film) is placed on a bottle (20) and attached to the bottle body by a heat-shrinking process. In the case of a cap seal, the tube (10) may be preformed into a cap shape as shown in FIG. The heat-shrinkable film tube (10) is generally provided with a tear line (11) (extending in a direction crossing the film stretching direction). The tear line (11) is indispensable for facilitating separation and collection of used bottles and tubes and opening the cap-sealed bottle mouth.
[0003]
FIG. 10 and FIG. 11 show an example of how the cut line is formed with respect to the tube (10). FIG. 10 shows an example in which a single cut line (11) is formed. In FIG. 11 (1), two parallel cut lines (11) are formed on the tube (10) so as to be cut into a tape shape. For example, FIG. 2B shows an example in which each of the two cut lines is formed as a double line (consisting of two lines having a gap of about 1 to 2 mm in width).
Conventionally, these cut lines (11) are formed by a punching machine (die roll, punching machine, etc.). This is for punching by pressing a blade (such as a Thomson blade) against the film, and the cut line is shown in FIG. 11 ((1): plan view, (2): DD arrow sectional view). As shown, it is formed as a line of slits (blank punch marks) (15) arranged in a line.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
The tear line (11) formed in the heat-shrinkable tube requires the following two points. One is the process of attaching the heat-shrinkable tube (10) to a bottle or the like (heat-shrinking treatment of the tube), and the other one is that the tube starting from the cut line (11) is not damaged. When used (or discarded), it functions well as a tear line for removing the tube (10) from the surface of a bottle or the like (the tube can be easily broken and removed). However, these two characteristics have contradictory properties, and it is difficult to satisfy both characteristics at the same time with the conventional cut line made of the slit (15) as follows.
[0005]
In heat-shrink processing for attaching a heat-shrinkable tube to a bottle or the like, a tensile force acts in the direction (circumferential direction of the tube) perpendicular to the slit (15) of the tear line as the tube heat-shrinks (reducing area shrinkage). As shown in FIGS. 13 (1) and 13 (2), the slit (15) changes to an opening shape, and stress concentration occurs at both ends of the slit. In addition, microcracks generated when the blade is punched are scattered in the vicinity of both ends of the slit (15). For this reason, a slit may be generated from both ends of the slit depending on the material type of the film, and the tube may be broken as shown in FIG.
[0006]
The above problem, a slit length (FIG. 12) (l 15) to short, can be avoided by increasing the design spacing (S 15). However, on the other hand, it is difficult to remove the broken tube. For example, when the bottle is discarded, the tube (10) cannot be easily cut off as shown in FIG. 15, and when the fingertip is strengthened and pulled, the cutting tip (h) is cut off from the cutting line (11). Deviate from. In such a state, it is almost impossible to cut off the tip with the fingertip force. Also in the case of a tube provided with two cut lines (11) as shown in FIG. 11 and cut into a tape shape, the cut end is easily displaced from the cut line, and the tape is torn off if pulled forcibly. Although FIG. 11 (2) is intended to improve the cutability by forming each of the two cut lines as a double line, it is still difficult to eliminate the above problems. These problems also apply to the cap seal.
[0007]
In view of the above, the present invention provides a heat-shrinkable tube with a tear line that can prevent breakage of a tube in a heat shrinking process to be attached to an article such as a bottle and can be easily cut out when the tube is removed from a bottle or the like. It is to provide.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The film tube with a tear line of the present invention has a row of recesses (12) which are substantially circular through- holes arranged in a line along the direction crossing the film stretching direction, and along the row of the recesses . extend continuously or intermittently on both sides, bank-like thick portion of the top height exhibits a periodic roughness changes (13) and, formed on the periphery of the recessed a stepped thick edge (14 ) And a heat-shrinkable plastic film in which a tear line (11) is formed.
[0009]
The tear line (11) in the present invention has a form consisting of a row of substantially circular recesses (12) (through holes or thin film surface portions), so that in the tube mounting step (heat shrinking treatment), The local concentration of stress such as the cut lines (slit rows) and the resulting film breakage are avoided beforehand. The cut line (11) formed by laser beam irradiation or the like as will be described later is not accompanied by a microcrack like the slit cut line (cutting of the cutter), and the peripheral edge of the recess (12) is thick in a stepped shape. Also presenting a modified form contributes to prevention of cracking / breaking of the film in the tube mounting process. Furthermore, the bank-like thick part (13) extending on both sides of the recess (12) reinforces both sides of the row of recesses as a thick effect. This provides a guide function in the cutting direction when the tube (10) is removed from the bottle or the like, preventing the cutting tip (h) from shifting (FIG. 15), and the total length of the cutting line (11). Is easy to cut.
[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The tear line (1) of the heat-shrinkable tube of the present invention can be formed by applying laser beam irradiation or the like (described later). Hereinafter, the form of the cut line will be described by taking a cut line formed by laser beam irradiation as an example.
1 is a plan view of the cut line (11), FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along arrow AA in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along arrow BB, and FIG. Yes. The cut line (11) is formed in a direction crossing the circumferential direction of the tube. The recesses (12) are substantially circular through holes (12a), and are arranged in a line at a constant interval (pitch). A chain line (13 T ) indicates the top of the bank-shaped thick part (13), and a broken line (13 B ) indicates the hem edge.
[0011]
The bank-like thick portions (13) on both sides of the recess (12) extend on both the front and back sides of the film (F) along the recess row. In addition, the recess (12) is edged by a stepped thick edge (14). The height of the top portion of the bank-shaped thick portion (13) in FIG. 2 exhibits a periodic unevenness change in the direction of the recessed rows, but this unevenness profile depends on the type of film used and the beam irradiation conditions. Therefore, by controlling the film material type and the irradiation conditions, a comparatively gentle form with little change in height is given.
[0012]
In addition, the step-like thick part (14) at the periphery of each recess (12) in FIG. 2 (AA arrow cross-sectional view in FIG. 1) is the step-like thick part (14) of the adjacent recess (12). However, there is a case where the adjacent stepped thick portions (14) are continuous and have a flat shape as shown in FIG.
[0013]
FIG. 6 shows a cross section taken along the line AA when the recess (12) in FIG. 1 is a thin film surface portion (12b). The rows of thin film depressions (12b) correspond to so-called “half cut” cut lines. The difference between the thin film depression (12b) and the through depression (12a) is only the presence or absence of a thin film that crosses the depression, and the cross-sectional form of the thin film depression (12b) is basically the same as that of FIGS.
[0014]
FIG. 7 shows another example of a planar form of the cut line (11). FIG. 8 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA. The cut line (11) in this example is the same as that shown in FIGS. 2, 5, and 6 (bank-like thickness) in that the bank-like thick portions (13) on both sides of the recess (12) extend intermittently. However, even in the case of having such an intermittent form, the cut by the bank-like thick part (13) is required unless the pitch of the recesses (12) is excessively large. A good cut line function can be secured without impairing the direction guide function.
[0015]
The cut line (11) is formed by using a laser beam irradiation device (a carbon dioxide laser beam, an argon laser beam, a YAG laser beam, etc.) in a film continuous transfer line (for example, a center seal process for forming a tube). It is possible to carry out efficiently under continuous transfer. According to the beam irradiation, a healthy film surface free from microcracks such as the formation of slit cut lines (pressing of a blade) is maintained.
[0016]
By irradiating the film surface with the beam, the irradiated minute area is instantly melted and evaporated. Crossed (typically orthogonal) on the surface of a heat-shrinkable film (uniaxial or biaxially stretched film) with respect to the stretching direction (in the case of biaxial stretching, the direction of high stretching ratio = the circumferential direction of the tube) When the beam is scanned in the direction, a cut line (11) having a recess (12) and a bank-like thick part (13) is formed. The formation of the bank-like thick part (13) sandwiching the depression (12) mainly contributes to the heat shrinkability due to the stretching process of the film, and the action of the surface tension accompanying softening and melting is involved in this. It is considered a thing.
[0017]
The form of the cut line (11) varies depending on the type of film and the beam irradiation conditions. Therefore, depending on the type of film used (beam absorption characteristics, melting point, thermal conductivity, etc.), its thickness, stretching rate, etc., beam irradiation conditions include beam output, depth of beam focus, beam scanning speed ( By controlling the relative speed with respect to the film surface, the ON / OFF cycle of the beam, etc., the profile (concave diameter, wall width, wall width, etc.) of the recess (12) and bank-like thick part (13) etc. The thickness, the thickness of the recessed edge, the recessed pitch, etc.) can be arbitrarily adjusted.
[0018]
A specific example of the specification size of the cut line (11) will be described with reference to FIG. 9. When the recess (12) is a through hole (12a), the average diameter of the recess (d a ): about 400 μm or less, JoAtsu meat of the counter width (crest facing across the recess - distance summit) (W 13): about 3d a below the top wall thickness of the bank-like thick portions (t 13): 1.5t F or higher ( t F is the original thickness of the film), thickness of the stepped thick portion (t 14 ): 1.1 t F or more (<t 13 ), concave pitch (distance between concave centers) (p): 1.2 d a A profile that is ˜3d a is given. As a typical example, the recessed average diameter (d a): 50~300μm, bank-like thick portion of the counter width (W 13): 1.5d a ~2.5d a, bulging thick bank-like thick portion (t 13): 1.5t F ~4t F, the thickness of the stepped portion (t 14): example a 1.1t F ~3t F and the like.
[0019]
As for the planar shape of the recess (12), the substantially circular meaning includes a deformed circle. For example, the diameters in the two directions perpendicular to the recess are d 1 and d 2 (where d2 is the beam operation direction). When the difference diameter is d 1 <d 2 ), the ratio d 2 / d 1 between the two is preferably about 3 or less. Within this range, the isotropy of the planar shape of the recess is not impaired, and stress concentration in the tube mounting process (heat shrinkage) and troubles caused thereby are not caused. The average aperture (d a ) in this case is a value obtained by dividing the sum of d 1 and d 2 by 2.
[0020]
Even when the recess (12) is the thin film surface portion (12b), the size of the cut line is not substantially different from that of the through recess (12a). However, the film thickness (t b ) at the center of the thin film recess (12b) is preferably about (1/3) × t F or less (t F is the original film thickness). This is because when the film thickness (t b ) at the center is thicker than this, the function of the tear line (11) (tube breakage removability) decreases. The thin film (12b) may be partially missing on the film surface.
[0021]
The film material of the film tube of the present invention is a general heat-shrinkable film such as polyester, polypropylene, polystyrene, etc., and has a suitable thickness (for example, about 10 to 150 μm, preferably 20 to 70 μm) as a tube. Then, by a stretching process (for example, the stretching ratio is about 2 to 7 times in the circumferential direction of the tube and about 1 to 1.5 times in the direction orthogonal thereto) 10% to 70%, at 90 ° C.) is appropriately used.
[0022]
The cut line (11) is formed as one line as shown in FIG. 10 or as two lines for cutting into a tape shape as shown in FIG. 11 (1). In addition, since the cutting line (11) in the present invention has a good cutting performance, it is not always necessary to use either one or two cutting lines as a double line as shown in FIG. 11 (2). In the case of a double line, the cutting performance is further enhanced. The direction of the cutoff line (11) does not necessarily have to be parallel to the axis of the tube (10), and may be inclined. In addition to being formed continuously over the entire length in the body length direction, it may be partially formed within a range that does not impair the cut-out property of the tube. If desired, there is a case where a configuration mode in which a cut line in the circumferential direction of the tube (10) is added is adopted.
[0023]
The tear line of the heat-shrinkable film tube of the present invention is
(1) Due to the substantially circular shape of the recesses (12) arranged in a line, in the process of attaching to an article (heating and shrinking treatment of the tube), unlike the conventional slit cutting line, the tube is likely to break. Stress concentration is avoided.
(2) The cutting line formed by beam irradiation has a sound film surface property without microcracks unlike the slit cutting line, etc., thereby enhancing the effect of preventing film cracking / breaking in the tube mounting process. .
[0024]
(3) The ridge-like thick wall portion (13) extending on both sides of the recessed row reinforces both sides of the recessed row, provides a guide function when cutting the tube, and a cutting tip (h ) Deviation (FIG. 15). In the case of a form in which two parallel cut lines are formed and cut into a tape shape, the cut along the entire length of the cut line (11) is facilitated without tearing the tape. In particular, it is particularly effective as a cut line for a tube of a polyester-based heat-shrinkable film (a material that easily causes tearing of the tape when it is cut off in the form of a tape, or is difficult to cut).
[0025]
(4) When the slit cut line, if trying to avoid damage to the tubes due to stress concentration when the tube attachment (heat shrinking treatment of the tube), it is necessary to slit interval size Ru camphor (cut of the tube with it On the other hand, the recess of the tear line of the present invention avoids stress concentration that induces breakage of the tube, and the reinforcing effect is that the peripheral edge of the recess is edged by a thick part. The recesses (12) of the cut line can be set densely (decrease the recess pitch p), and the tube can be cut more satisfactorily.
[0026]
(5) According to the beam irradiation, it is easy to uniformly form a recess having an extremely fine aperture of the order of submillimeters (for example, 200 to 100 μm or less). If the through recess (12a) has such a very fine diameter, a minute hole diameter of about 0.3 mm or less is maintained in a state of being attached to a bottle or the like. The possibility of forming the cut line as such an extremely fine hole is that, for example, when sealing the drinking mouth of a beverage bottle using a tube as a cap seal, an unexpected trouble in the product distribution process (for example, invasion of minute insects, etc.) This is advantageous in terms of health and safety and quality assurance. Even when the depression (12) is formed as a thin film depression (12b), the blocking function can be obtained as a barrier function of the thin film surface portion.
[0027]
【Example】
[1] Formation of cut line and tube production A cut line is formed on the heat-shrinkable film by irradiation with a carbon dioxide laser beam, and then center sealing is performed to obtain a test tube. The scanning direction of the irradiation beam was set to be orthogonal to the circumferential direction of the tube, and the number of cut lines was 2 (FIG. 11 (1)).
Table 1 shows the beam irradiation conditions and the form of the cut line formed.
In the test tubes A1 to A4, the recess (12) of the tear line is a through recess (12a), and that of the tube A5 is a thin film recess (12b).

In Table 2, “×” in the “Break resistance / deformability” column is the mounting process, and the appearance of the tube breakage (FIG. 13) starting from the cut line (FIG. 13) and the expansion of the slit (15) due to the film elongation. “O” in the same column indicates that the fitting was completed without causing breakage, etc. “X” in the “Cutability” column indicates that the tip of the rupture was cut off during tube cutting. The trouble that could not be cut, such as coming off from the line or tearing of the cutting tape, occurred frequently, and “◯” in the same column indicates that the tube was cut smoothly over the entire length of the tube.
[0035]
In Table 2, the tube (B1) of the comparative example caused defects in the finished appearance due to deformation of the opening of the tear line slit and breakage starting from the tear line in the process of attaching to the bottle, while the tube (B2) fractured. Although it is attached to the bottle without causing such a problem, the function of the tear line is incomplete, which hinders separation from the bottle. On the other hand, the tube (A1 to A5) of the invention example is completed to be attached to the bottle without any breakage, etc., and can be easily detached from the attached bottle. It has both characteristics of operability.
[0036]
【The invention's effect】
The heat-shrinkable tube with a tear line of the present invention is excellent in rupture resistance and the like in the tube mounting process, can complete sound mounting without causing damage to the film, etc., and when separated from the mounted article Can be easily and easily cut along the cut line. In addition, since the recesses that make up the tear line can have an extremely small diameter, it is possible to enhance the blocking protection function when used as a cap seal and to enhance the protection function of the contents as a sealing means for food and beverages. It can contribute to quality assurance and safety and health.
