Description

What be used for handbag comprises decoration fastener of one section adhesive tape and preparation method and apparatus thereof

Technical field

The present invention relates in general to decorative product, relates in particular to the decoration fastener that is used to make the gift package pack, uses and seem the method and apparatus of pleasing fastener easily.

Background technology

Present fashion trend is to use the portable paper bag of textile fabric or bondedfibre fabric or plastic material to hold gift rather than the use paper of the past type and the packing of rope.Figure 1A illustrates and is commonly called the pre-portion edge that translucent article tape adhesive tape, short will also be called as such bag of shopping bag and keeps together.Figure 1B and 1C illustrate forward sight and the side perspective by these fastening bags of the adhesive tape among Figure 1A.

Because the parallel edge of bag, described bag can use the adhesive tape, label, clip or the peg that separate with the handle that offers bag fastening suitably.These fastening methods are by mechanism (clip, peg) or by utilizing surface adhesion properties (band, label) with the edge coupling together.Fastener among Figure 1A obviously is simple and unadorned and does not have ornament on bag.Fig. 2 A and 2B illustrate some known manner that fastening as mentioned above bag attempts to create afterwards more attracting effect.

Fig. 2 A illustrate with Figure 1B in identical bag, this bag is by placement placed in the middle and fastening in conjunction with the label at two edges, and ribbon is tied on the rope.Described adhesive tape in two ways, promptly by working in conjunction with two handles with by producing decorative effect.Be not enough to prevent that in conjunction with two handles the article in the bag from dropping, adhered labels has improved general effect simultaneously visibly for this reason.Fig. 2 B illustrate with Figure 1B in identical bag, this bag is fastening with jointing edge by the clip of ordering the jail between two parties, and has attached to the bowknot of top as ornament.

These examples make the significant difference that is present between fastener and the ornament apparent, if bag does not have handle difference more remarkable.

Unless take care, with adhesive tape or the fastening bag of label the time, glued sides can be overlapping and be sticked together, thus make fastening invalid.Precautionary measures to this are to cover adhesive surface with the protection paper slip that tears off easily.When tearing paper slip off, contact with adhesive surface for fear of finger, protection sheet has at least one lay edges for preparing in advance that thumb can be touched.Even like this, the surface overlapping risk still exist, reason be with the naked adhesive tape of finger-tip operated with the maintenance this naked adhesive tape be the very difficult thing of part, especially when being hindered by the rope on such handbag.

These real drawbacks are to use the adhesive tape that is used for fastening purposes intrinsic, have deviated from aesthstic restriction far away.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of device, this device will except that the ability of the fastening handbag of the use of packing gift, easier use and obtain more attracting effect made up, avoided above-mentioned defective simultaneously.
