Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow an optical recording medium to be directly mailed by forming it mainly from plastic resin and having sufficient strength by which it is hardly damaged by mailing, and writing address information on the back of the light incident plane. SOLUTION: An optical recording medium 1 has a writing part 3 formed by sticking a paper label 30 with an adhesive layer provided with a smooth- peeling treatment on a protective layer (ultra-violet curing resin) on the back of a light incident plane 20 of a 12cm diameter component disk 2 (optical recording medium), and is formed so that address information and postage stamps are easily written and affixed on this writing part 3. This medium 1 needs no thick and tough member as cardboard, etc., as usual when being sent by mail, and contributes to conservation of resources. Further, the compact disk is molded mainly from poly-carbonate and has a sufficient strength by which it is hardly damaged by mailing and can directly be mailed without being protected by an envelope. Further, the label is removable and an addressee can peel it off after receiving it.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The optically recordable optical recording medium of the present invention (hereinafter, also simply referred to as “optical recording medium”) includes audio information,
In an optical recording medium on which image information, data, and the like are optically recorded, an entry portion in which destination information can be entered is formed on the back side of the light incident surface. In addition, the mailable optical recording medium of the present invention, in advance, the destination information, the above-mentioned entry section, printing or ballpoint pen, fountain pen
This includes those written by hand with a writing instrument such as a pencil or oil-based magic.

The size of the entry section is not particularly limited as long as the entry section described later can be entered and does not protrude outside the optical recording medium. In addition, it is preferable that the size and the shape are such that a stamp can be attached and a postmark can be imprinted.

In the present invention, the destination information includes at least a destination postal code, a destination address, a sender (recipient).
And information such as sender's telephone number, sender's postal code, sender's address, sender's name, sender's phone number, etc. can be added as necessary.

As the form of the writing portion formed on the back side of the light incident surface, there is a form in which a paint is formed by applying a paint on a board (protective layer surface) on the back side of the light incident surface. A form in which paper or a synthetic resin film is adhered on the board surface on the back surface side of the incident surface (in this case, the paint surface becomes an entry portion), or on the surface of a protective layer formed on the back surface side of the light incident surface. Directly formed (in this case, the surface of the protective layer becomes the writing portion). In addition, these modes may be appropriately combined according to the destination information.

The paint used on the paint surface formed on the back side of the light incident surface includes, for example, synthetic resin paints, cellulose paints, oil paints, water paints, and spirit paints. And a pigment such as titanium white.

The material of the synthetic resin film is not particularly limited. However, it is preferable to use a material having a surface subjected to a mat treatment to form minute irregularities so as to easily describe a destination or the like. Examples of such a synthetic resin film include 3M Corporation; US registered trademark "Scotch"; trade name "Mending Tape".

When a paper or a synthetic resin film is adhered on the board surface on the back side of the light incident surface, it is preferable that the paper or the synthetic resin film is removably attached on the board surface. New That is, the paper or the synthetic resin film is pasted on the board so that the recipient has sufficient adhesive strength to remove the paper or the synthetic resin film on which the recipient is written after mailing. Why choose the type and amount of adhesive to wear?

FIG. 1 shows a first embodiment of a mailable optical recording medium according to the present invention. In FIG.
Indicates an optical recording medium that can be mailed.

As shown in FIG. 1, the optical recording medium 1 is peeled off on a protective layer (ultraviolet curable resin) on the back side of the light incident surface 20 of a compact disk (optical recording medium) 2 having a diameter of 12 cm. A paper label 30 having an easily processed adhesive layer is attached to form an entry portion 3,
It is formed so that destination information can be entered and a stamp can be attached.

The optical recording medium 1 according to the present embodiment does not require a conventional member such as a thick and durable backing paper at the time of mailing, and contributes to resource saving. Also, compact discs are
As it is mainly made of polycarbonate, it has sufficient strength and is not easily damaged by mail.
It can be sent directly without protection by an envelope.
In addition, since the label 30 is detachable, the label 30 is peeled off after the recipient receives it, so that the design printed on the surface of the protective layer is not spoiled.

FIG. 2 shows a second embodiment of a mailable optical recording medium according to the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 'indicates a mailable optical recording medium.

The optical recording medium which can be mailed according to the present embodiment is a white acrylic paint on a protective layer formed on the back side of the light incident surface 20 of a compact disk (optical recording medium) 2 having a diameter of 12 cm. Is formed to form an entry portion 3 'including a white paint surface 30' coated and dried.

The optical recording medium 1 'of this embodiment, like the optical recording medium 1, does not require a conventional member such as a thick and durable mount for mailing, contributing to resource saving. In addition, since the compact disk is formed mainly of polycarbonate, it has sufficient strength, is hardly damaged by mail, and can be directly sent without being protected by an envelope.

FIG. 4 shows a fourth embodiment of the mailable optical recording medium of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 'indicates a mailable optical recording medium.

The optical recording medium 1 'of this embodiment has a diameter of 1
The destination information is printed directly on the surface of a protective layer (ultraviolet curable resin) 21 formed on the back side of the light incident surface 20 of the 2 cm compact disc (optical recording medium) 2.
Paper labels 3 so that stamps can be attached and postmarks can be imprinted.
0 'is detachably attached to form an entry portion 3'.

The optical recording medium 1 'of this embodiment, like the optical recording medium 1, does not require a conventional member such as a thick and durable mount for mailing, and contributes to resource saving. In addition, since the compact disk is formed mainly of polycarbonate, it has sufficient strength, is hardly damaged by mail, and can be directly sent without being protected by an envelope.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, but can be appropriately modified without departing from the spirit and purpose of the present invention. For example, in the optical recording medium of the above-described embodiment, the entry portion is formed by attaching a label or a synthetic resin film on which transmission information can be entered, but if the destination information is known, the destination It is also possible to attach a label or a synthetic resin film on which information is written.

Instead of the label 30 in the optical recording medium 1 of the present embodiment, a synthetic resin whose surface is matted on the protective layer on the back side of the light incident surface 20 of the compact disk (optical recording medium) 2 The writing section may be formed by detachably attaching a film. In this case, in addition to the same effects as those of the optical recording medium 1, since the matting process is performed on the surface of the writing section, it is possible to write the destination information with various writing tools.
