Description

  The present invention relates to a method for applying a price-reduced price bar code label suitable for price reduction of products (also referred to as “mark-down”, “close-out”, etc.) performed for customers in the retail distribution industry. .

  As one of the measures to prevent losing credit without the markdown being carried out despite the announcement of the markdown, a bar that contains the price information before the markdown of the product in addition to the markdown display. In order to prevent the code from being accidentally read at the cash register, if you try to load the barcode with at least a part of it hidden, an error will occur and you will not be able to read the reduced price barcode. They are trying to make them realize that they should not.

  In Patent Document 1, a product that is price-reduced with a bar code including price information before the price reduction is a portion that is brittle while attaching the blindfold of the price reduction barcode label on the barcode. A price-reduced price barcode label and a method of attaching the price-reduced price barcode label other than the blindfold are pasted on the product to be price-reduced.

  However, according to the invention of Patent Document 1, since the blind portion of the barcode label is formed at the corner of the reduced price barcode label, the blind portion becomes a small right triangle. And this blindfolded part has a small adhesive area, so when you try to shred in a brittle part while sticking on the price barcode label before price reduction, the blindfold does not remain on the price barcode label before price reduction There is a problem that the price bar code label before the price cut cannot be completely hidden because the blindfold is too small.

The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and it is possible to prevent forgetting discounts at the cash register for price-reduced products (off-line products), and it is easy to scan barcodes including price-reduced price information, and to reduce prices. It is an object of the present invention to provide a reduced price bar code label and a method of attaching the same, which can be easily attached to a product for displaying the label.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the first invention is a price reduction price in which a blindfold integrally formed with one end of a label body is temporarily attached to the mount with an adhesive via a slit (cut). A barcode label affixing method, wherein a bar code including at least price reduction price information is printed on the surface of the label main body, and the price information before the price reduction of the target product is separated by separating the blindfold from the mount during use. A part of the included barcode is pasted so as to cover it, the price before the price reduction is made unreadable to the barcode, and the barcode label body is pasted outside the label or display containing the price information before the price reduction for the target product. This is a method for attaching a price-reduced price barcode label.
Here, the blindfold is colored and is larger than the top (height) dimension of the bar of the barcode including the price information before the price reduction in the target product, and more than one of the bars constituting the barcode. A wide width is preferable.

  The second invention is a price-reduced price barcode label in which a blindfold integrally formed with one end of the label main body is temporarily attached with adhesive to the mount via a slit (cut). The label body surface is printed with a barcode including price reduction information at least immediately before use, and when used, the blindfold is separated from the mount to include price information before the price reduction for the target product. A part of the barcode is pasted so as to cover it, making it impossible to read the barcode before price reduction, and the barcode label itself is affixed outside the label or display containing the price information before the price reduction for the target product. And the blindfold is more than the vertical (height) dimension of the bar of the barcode containing the price information before the price reduction in the target product Hear a markdown price bar code label, which is a width greater than one bar constituting the bar code.

Further, the third invention is a price reduction in which a blindfold piece integrally formed with the label main body is temporarily attached to the mount with an adhesive via a cut portion having a plurality of connecting portions at one end portion of the label main body. A barcode label is printed on the surface of the label main body with a barcode including price reduction information at least immediately before use, and when used, the blindfold is separated from the mount and before the price reduction in the target product. A part of the barcode containing the price information is pasted so as to obscure it, making the price before the price reduction unreadable, and the barcode label itself is outside the label or label containing the price information before the price reduction for the target product. And the blindfold is a bar code top / bottom (height) containing the price information before the price reduction of the target product. Larger than the dimension a markdown price bar code label, characterized in that than one bar constituting the bar code is wide.

  According to the present invention, the blindfold can be separated from the label body and pasted so as to conceal a part of the price barcode before the price reduction, so that the price barcode before the price reduction cannot be read by the blindfold. It is possible to prevent the bar code including the price information before the discount from being accidentally scanned.

  In addition, since the new price barcode label itself is attached to the outside of the label or label that includes price information before the price reduction, the person in charge of production, expiration date, raw material name, and PR information included in the price will be the price reduction barcode. The inconvenience of covering with a label can be eliminated, and useful information can be utilized.

In addition, by making the blindfold colored, larger than the top (height) dimension of the bar of the bar code including the price information before the price reduction, and wider than one bar constituting the bar code, The blindfold makes it impossible to read the bar code of the price before the price cut, making it easier for the discount operator to check and making it look nice.

  According to the present invention, the blindfold is affixed to a part of the barcode including the price information before the price reduction, and the label body of the price reduction barcode label is simply attached to the outside of the price barcode before the price reduction. The bar code of the price before the discount can be prevented from being scanned, and the cashier's clerk scans almost the same position as the bar code of the old price in the product, and the settlement is easily performed.

  In addition, if useful information such as the person in charge of production, expiry date, raw material name, PR information, etc. is written adjacent to the bar code including price information before the price reduction, the price reduction bar code label will cover it. There is no inconvenience, and the discount operation is performed without impairing the appearance of the product.

  Furthermore, the blindfold is colored, larger than the vertical (height) dimension of the bar of the barcode including the price information before the price reduction, and wider than one of the bars constituting the barcode, The blindfold makes it impossible to read the bar code of the price before the price cut, making it easier for the discount operator to check and making it look nice.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
1 to 3 show an embodiment of the present invention.

  The original selling price label L1 in FIG. 1 is affixed to the product “Namabi long tuna”, and on its surface, useful information such as product name, processing date, expiration date, price, manufacturer, seller, etc. A bar code 1 containing the previous price information is displayed.

  L2 in FIG. 2 indicates a price cut barcode label according to the present invention. The price-reduced price barcode label L2 includes a label body 3 on which a barcode 2 including price-reduced price information is printed, and a blindfold 4 integrally formed with the label body at one end of the label body 3 is a slit ( The adhesive 6 (see FIG. 3) is temporarily attached to the mount 6 through the cuts 5.

  In addition to the barcode 2 related to the price reduction price, visual information 8 related to the price reduction price is also recorded on the label body 3. As a method of displaying the visual recognition information 8, as shown in the figure, a method of displaying a closing width (the price reduction width such as “yen discount” or “% discount”), or a price after the closing price (the price itself after the price reduction). There is a method of displaying.

  The reduced price barcode label L2 is printed and issued by reading the original selling price label L1 with a label issuing device equipped with a barcode reading device (scanner), processing and editing the original data.

  The bar code 2 may be a code 128 or a two-level bar code (not shown) including information about the price before the discount in addition to the bar code regarding the price reduction.

  In order to mark down using the reduced price barcode label L2, as shown in FIG. 1, the label body 3 is attached to the outside of the barcode label L1 at the price before the price reduction along the edge. At this time, the blindfold 4 is also peeled off from the mount 6 at the same time, covering the top portion of the bar code 1 at the price before the price reduction and making it unreadable.

  The cashier operator reads the code display portion of the product with a scanner, so that the product price after the closing is input to the register. For example, in the case of FIG. 1, the register cannot recognize this because several bars at the left end of the barcode 1 are hidden by the blindfold piece 4, and the price reduction price information of the price reduction barcode label L <b> 2. Is recognized as the price of the product. Therefore, it is possible to carry out discounts at the same time simply by having the operator read the bar code at the cash register, and forgetting to discount at the cash register. Moreover, when useful information such as information on the product before the price reduction, production manager, expiration date, raw material name, PR information, etc. is described, there is no inconvenience that the price reduction barcode label is obscured, Discounts can be made without deteriorating the appearance of the product.

Next, another embodiment will be described based on FIG. 4 and FIG.
In the following, the same parts as those of the previous embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.
FIG. 4 is a plan view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing the reduced price barcode label L3, and FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VV in FIG. As shown in the figure, the reduced price barcode label L3 includes a label body 3 on which a barcode 2 including reduced price information is printed, and a blindfold formed integrally with the label body at one end of the label body 3. The piece 4 is temporarily attached to the mount 6 with the adhesive 7 (see FIG. 5) via the cut portion 10.
In the previous embodiment, the label main body 3 and the blindfold piece 4 are temporarily attached on the mount 6 via the slits (cuts) 5, whereas in the present embodiment, the label of the previous embodiment is used. Instead of the slit 5, the label main body 3 and the blindfold piece 4 are temporarily attached on the mount 6 through a cut portion 10 having a plurality of connecting portions 9. That is, the cut portion 10 is provided with a plurality of (four in the illustrated example) connecting portions 9, and the cut portions 10 are “dotted” in a discontinuous state by the connecting portions 9, and thus the mount 6 Even when the label body 3 and the blindfold 4 are wound and stored, the label body 3 and the blindfold 4 temporarily attached to the mount 6 are difficult to peel off, and in use. Since the connecting portion 9 is “dotted”, the blindfold piece 4 can be easily separated.
About another structure, an effect | action, and an effect, since it is the same as that of previous embodiment, detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

Next, still another embodiment will be described mainly based on FIG. 6 and FIG.
In the following, the same parts as those of the previous embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.
FIG. 6 is a plan view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing the reduced price barcode label L4. As shown in the figure, the reduced price barcode label L4 is formed integrally with the label body 3 on which the barcode 2 including the reduced price information is printed, and the label body 3 at the upper end of the label body 3. The blindfold 14 is temporarily attached to the mount 6 with the adhesive 7 through the cut portion 10. The cut portion 10 is provided with a plurality of (four in the illustrated example) connecting portions 9, and the cut portions 10 are “dotted” in a discontinuous state by the connecting portions 9. When the main body 3 and the blindfold 14 are conveyed by a printing device (not shown) and printing is performed on the label body 3, the blindfold 14 temporarily attached to the mount 6 is not peeled off.
Next, the use state at the time of printing will be described mainly based on FIG.
A printing operation is shown in which printing is performed on an unprinted price-reduced price bar code label L4b by the print head 11 as printing means. When printing is performed on the unprinted price-reduced price barcode label L4b by the print head 11 while the label body 3 and the blindfold 14 temporarily attached on the mount 6 are conveyed in the conveyance direction F, the printed price reduction is performed. A price barcode label L4a is created. The printed price reduction barcode label L4a is conveyed to the peeling position R and stops. At the peeling position R, only the mount 6 referred to as turning is changed in direction, and the price-reduced bar code label L4a leaves a part of the rear end portion on the mount 6 at the peeling position R due to its own rigidity. It peels from the mount 6 in a state. At this time, the cut portion 10 is “dotted” in a discontinuous state by the connecting portion 9, and the rear end portion of the label body 3 remains on the mount 6. Unlike the case of the slits (cuts) 5 in FIG. 3), the blindfold 14 provided at the tip is not likely to be peeled off from the mount 6.
About another structure, an effect | action, and an effect, since it is the same as that of previous embodiment, detailed description is abbreviate | omitted.

Next, still another embodiment will be described mainly with reference to FIG.
In the following, the same parts as those of the previous embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted.
FIG. 8 is a plan view corresponding to FIG. 2 showing the reduced price barcode label L5. As shown in the figure, the reduced price barcode label L5 includes a label main body 3 on which a barcode 2 including the reduced price information is printed, and a blindfold integrally formed with the label main body 3 at one end of the label main body 3. The piece 24 is temporarily attached to the mount 6 with the adhesive 7 through the cut portion 10. The vertical length of the blindfold 24 is substantially the same as the vertical height of the barcode 2, more specifically, slightly longer than the vertical height. It is “spotted” through the cut portion 10 provided (three places in the illustrated example). By making the vertical length of the blindfold piece 24 slightly longer than the height in the vertical direction of the barcode 2, the price-reduced price barcode label L 5 is peeled off from the mount 6, and the “dot” of the connecting portion 9 of the cut portion 10 is further removed. When the label 24 is removed by removing the blindfold 24 from the label main body 3 and the top portion of the barcode 2 is obscured by the blindfold 24 so that the barcode cannot be read, the manufacturing is performed adjacent to the barcode 2. It is possible to eliminate the inconvenience that the blindfold 24 covers the useful information such as the responsible person, expiry date, raw material name and PR information.
