Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a label sheet, and more particularly, it is possible to print a set of a plurality of labels in which a first label is attached to an article and a second label is used for article management work. The present invention relates to a label paper stuck on a release mount.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 8 (plan view) and FIG. 9 (end view taken along the line BB of FIG. 8), this type of label paper has an island-shaped label from the center to one side. Two large and small labels 51, which are provided with one-sided transverse perforations 63,
It was divided into 52 pieces and arranged and attached on a release liner 60. In FIG. 8, 61 is a horizontal perforation for bending the release liner 60, 62 is a horizontal perforation for separating the release liner 60, 64 is a label lined side by side, the release liner 60
The perforations 65 for separating the tape while being attached to the slits 65 are slits provided only on the release liner 60.

The sticking of this label is carried out by applying an adhesive on the entire back surface of both the large and small labels, or as shown in FIG. 10 (perspective view).
Further, as shown in FIG. 11 (an end view taken along CC in the conventional example of FIG. 10), the adhesive 83 is not applied to the back surface of the small label 82, but only the back surface of the large label 81. . In FIGS. 10 and 11, reference numeral 80 is a release liner, and 80a and 84 are perforations. And FIG.
When using the label paper of the conventional example of No. 1, first cut into pieces at the perforations 62 and 64 between the labels, and then
The large label 51 was peeled off from the release liner 60 and attached to the article to be managed.

In such label paper, a large label is generally attached to an article and a small label is separated from the large label and used for office management. For this reason, barcodes are printed on the small label or a part of the small label and the large label,
The product name is described on the large label. The bar code printed on the small label is read by the bar code reader and used for management of article processing.

It is necessary to separate the small label from the large label because the articles to be managed are large and cannot be easily moved, cannot be brought into a place for office work, and the bar code reader can be easily carried around. It may not be possible. Further, the small label after being cut off needs to have a release liner on the back so as not to stick to the hand, for example, by covering the adhesive layer so that it can be carried easily.

[0006]

However, in the conventional label paper described above, in the case of FIG. 8, when the large label is peeled from the peeling mount, the small label is strongly pressed against the peeling mount so as not to move. Otherwise, the small label will come off together. The pressing of the small label can be performed at a place near the peripheral portion of the release liner, but it is extremely difficult for the small label near the central portion. Therefore, there is a drawback in that only the large label can be peeled off with the release liner attached to the back of the small label unless the large and small sets of labels are separated one by one.

Further, in the case of FIG. 10, since the adhesive is not applied to the back of the small label, it is not sticky and is convenient for handling after separating the small label from the large label, but the small label portion is peeled off. Because it is not integrated with the mount,
The posture on the release liner is unstable and uneven. For this reason, it is difficult to pass through a non-impact printer for printing on the label surface, it is difficult to keep the flat surface of the printed surface, and it is difficult for toner to get on. Furthermore, the uneven surface easily damages the drum surface of the printer. There are drawbacks such as. Especially in the case of barcode, high quality printing is required and it is necessary to maintain uniform paper conditions.
These drawbacks are fatal. In addition, it is difficult to remove the glue from only a part (the back side of the small label), and the cost is high.

The object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and when the first label of the two sets of labels is peeled off from the release liner, the release liner remains on the back of the second label, It is an object of the present invention to provide a label sheet in which the second label can be easily handled even after the second label is separated from other portions of the label sheet.

[0009]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the label paper according to the present invention has a perforation 3 for separating.
A label paper in which a first label 11 and a second label 12 which are in contact with each other with 0 as a boundary line are set, and a plurality of the sets are attached on the release liner 2 and printing is performed on at least the surface of the second label 12. Therefore, the release liner 2 has a border line 30 between the first label 11 and the second label 12.
a and a U-shaped slit 21 in which each side is arranged so as to substantially overlap with the U-shape formed by the opposite left and right ends of the second label 12 following the boundary line 30a. And

In this case, the slit 21 can be characterized by being formed by a score line divided by a dot-like connecting portion which can be separated with a small force.

[0011]

According to the present invention, a U-shaped slit is provided on the release liner to which the label is attached, near the boundary between the first label and the second label, and on the left and right sides of the second label following it. Thus, when the first label is pulled upward in order to remove it from the release liner, the portion along the U-shape is pulled apart, and one side of the second label is perforated with the release liner attached to its back. Lifted by the first label through a border line. Therefore, it becomes easy to pinch and press the second label lifted apart from the surrounding portion together with the release mount attached to the portion with a fingertip. Then, if the first label and the second label are not cut at the perforations and are peeled off from the release liner in an integrated state, the first label is peeled off from the release liner, and the second label has slits. The release liner separated by is left. In this state, it can be attached to an article, and when the article is sold, etc., if the second label with the release liner is cut off by perforations, computer processing etc. can be performed at another place. .

[0012]

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and the like. FIG. 1 is an external view (plan view) of an embodiment according to the present invention. FIG. 2 is an external view (back view) of the embodiment of FIG. 3 and 4 are explanatory views cut along the line A'-A 'of the embodiment of FIG. Figure 5
[Fig. 2] is an explanatory view (end view) cut along AA of the embodiment of Fig. 1.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, in this embodiment, a large label 11 as a first label and a second label are provided on a release liner 2.
The small label 12 which is the label of No. 1 is configured by arranging a plurality of sets as a set in which a part of the perforation 30 is in contact as the boundary line 30a and adhering the sheet 1 coated with the adhesive 3 on the back surface. . Usually, a large number of unit label papers are continuously made up and down through crease perforations (not shown) or perforation perforations (not shown) as one unit with the sheet 1 attached to the release mount 2 as described above. Mass production. These perforations for creases and perforations for separation are similar to those of the conventional examples 61 and 62 in FIG.

In this embodiment, the large label 11 and the small label 1
As shown in FIG. 1, the peripheral edge of each set of 2 is formed by slits on the upper side and the left and right sides in the figure, and the lower side in the figure is matched with the peripheral edge of the sheet 1. Label 11,
All of the periphery of 12 may be covered with slits,
Instead of being attached as a sheet on the release mount 2, each set may be attached in an island shape.

However, in order to apply the label in the form of an island, it is necessary to once remove the unnecessary label and its peripheral portion after the sheet is once formed and applied. In addition, there is also a drawback that the label is likely to be partly turned over from the periphery of the label during transportation and storage management before the label is used, and the toner does not ride well when printed by the printer, which tends to cause unevenness. Therefore, in this embodiment, the peripheral portion of the label is not removed and used as it is, but it does not cost much and the convenience at the time of peeling the label is almost the same as that of the island-shaped attachment.
The shaded portion in the drawing of FIG. 1 is a portion where the release liner 2 can be seen from the front surface because the sheet 1 does not cover the release liner 2. The two-dot chain line indicates the position of the slit 21 provided on the release liner 2.

The release liner 2 to which the sheet 1 is attached has a U-shaped portion formed by a boundary line 30a serving as a boundary between the large label 11 and the small label 12 and sides 12a and 12b on the left and right sides of the small label 12. Corresponding to, a U-shaped slit 21 is provided. The slit 21 is formed such that the side connecting the U-shapes is outside the boundary line 30a and both sides of the U-shape are inside the both sides 12a and 12b of the small label 12 (FIGS. 1 and 3). In addition, the slit 21 may have both sides of the U-shape aligned with the sides 12a and 12b on both sides of the small label 12 (see FIG. 4), and are formed outside in a range that does not hinder peeling. Good. Furthermore, this slit 2
1 may be a continuous notch, or may be a divided notch having a connecting portion from one point to several points on the way, which is cut by only lightly pressing with a finger. The two-dot chain line in the drawing of FIG. 2 indicates the positions of the sheet 1 and the labels 11 and 12 attached to the surface of the release liner 2.

FIG. 6 is an enlarged view (end view) of a part of a plurality of label sheets similar to those of the embodiment of FIG. 1 which are continuous with perforations as boundaries. In FIG. 6, the perforations 31 provided on the release liner 2 are shown in FIG.
This is equivalent to 61 or 62 of the conventional example. The sheet 1 is attached so as to avoid over the perforations 31 in order to prevent the sheets from pressing and collapsing when folded inward at the perforations 31. Note that 11a is a slit that forms the outer periphery of the label portion of the sheet 1.

FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram showing a state in which the large label 11 of this embodiment is peeled off from the peeling mount 2 from the state of FIG. In order to peel off the large label 11 from the release liner 2, the tip of the large label 11 is picked up with a fingertip and pulled up, so that the release liner 2 is provided with a U-shaped slit 21. As described above, the large label 11 and the small label 12 easily stand up from the base of the small label 12, and the large label 11 is separated from the release liner 2 with the adhesive 3 on the back surface, but the small label 12 is The part of the backing which has the release liner 2 attached thereto is separated from the slit 21 and is lifted up together with the separated part 2a.

Reference numeral 2b in the drawing denotes an end of the release liner 2 on the side of the small label 12 separated from the U-shaped slit 21, and 2c denotes a large label 11 of the release liner 2 separated from the slit 21. Side end. In addition, the slit 21
May be formed by completely continuous cuts,
Further, a part that connects both sides of an extremely narrow width may be provided in the middle of the slit, and the slit may be divided at several places. In any case, it suffices if both sides of the slit can be separated with an extremely slight force. If the slits are continuous, the processing is simpler, but if the slits are connected at several points, the printed surface can be made more stable, which is advantageous for delicate printing.

From the state of FIG. 7, the large label 11 and the small label 12 are not separated at the perforations 30 but are separated from the part of the release liner 2 at the perforations 31 in an integrated state. Then, the large label 11 is attached to the article to be managed by the adhesive 3 and when the article is sold or rented, the part of the small label 12 with the separated backing sheet 2 on the back side is perforated. The bar code printed on the surface of the small label 12 is read by a bar code reader in an office or the like which is separated by 30 and is away from the place where the article to be managed is located.

The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications and changes are possible, and these are also included in the scope of the present invention. For example, depending on the difference in the operating system and the like, from the state of FIG. 7, the small label 12 is held together with the portion 2a of the peeling mount 2 with a fingertip, and the peeled tip of the large label 11 is pulled in the direction of arrow P in the figure. Then, only the large label 11 is cut off from the perforation 30, and this is attached to the article to be managed. After that, the small label 12 may be separated from the other part of the release liner 2 by the perforations 31. Also in this case, since the adhesive 3 on the back surface of the small label 12 is covered with the sticking part of the release liner 2, it will not stick at all, and can be put in a pocket or the like and carried anywhere. be able to.

Further, instead of peeling off from the large label 11, the small label 12 and the peeling mount 2a below it are grasped,
The large label 11 connected at the perforations 30 may be removed from the release liner 2 by removing it from the release liner 2 and lifting it up. Also in this case, by holding the small label 12 with the release liner 2a attached, the large label 11 can be peeled off without making the hand sticky.

[0023]

As described in detail above, according to the present invention, in the vicinity of the boundary between the first label and the portion where the second label is attached to the release liner to which the label is attached, By providing U-shaped slits in the vicinity of the left and right sides of the second label connected to this, when the first label is pulled upward to be peeled from the release liner, the U-shaped portion is separated, One side of the second label is lifted with the release liner attached to the back and is separated from the surrounding area, so it is easy to pick up the second label that has been lifted up with the release liner attached to the back with your fingertips. Can be suppressed. Therefore, there is an effect that the work of separating the first label and the second label with the release mount still attached to the back becomes easy.
