Definitions

  • the invention relates to a label for sticking or sealing onto an object, such as for example on containers of any kind, such as cans, glasses, bottles, carton packs or the like, or on other objects, such as books, booklets or the like.
  • such labels are used to label containers of any shape and nature in order to provide information about the contents of these containers.
  • such labels show the trade name or the generic name or the name of the manufacturer or bottler of the goods contained in the container.
  • Such labels can also carry a prescription or recommendations for use or more precise information about the composition of the product.
  • such labels are glued to the object, for example, by pressure-activatable or heat-activatable adhesives. In the case of plastic objects or plastic-coated objects, the labels can also be sealed.
  • additional printable area in addition to the label surface without having to affix additional labels to the article, since such additional labels would impair the appearance of the article.
  • additional printable area can be used, for example, to provide additional information about the product or to give several different recipes for using the product or to display a detachable discount stamp or a similar lot or collecting images on it. Especially in the case of collectors' pictures or lots or the like, it is desirable to keep them hidden from the buyer until he has bought the goods and can remove the cover himself.
  • the object underlying the invention was therefore to create a label for sticking or sealing onto an object to get, which in addition to the label surface offers other printable areas that are easily accessible to the consumer and can be separated if necessary.
  • the additional printable area should be hidden from being made accessible or detached in order to trigger a surprise element.
  • the label according to the invention for sticking or sealing onto an object is characterized in that it consists of at least three fields connected to one another by fold lines in series, the third field in the row being folded parallel to the second field and narrower in the direction perpendicular to the fold lines than the second field and the first field in the row is folded parallel to the third field and fastened on it.
  • the panels adjacent to one another will usually have substantially the same shape, with the exception of a slight shortening of at least the third panel compared to the second panel in the direction perpendicular to the fold lines.
  • the fields can also have different shapes.
  • the field lying on the outside of the object in the direction of the folding lines can be longer than the fields below it, or vice versa, the fields below can be longer than the cover field and thus protrude above the latter as a flap.
  • the shapes of the fields can be of any type, the fold lines preferably being straight lines in order to facilitate folding. Examples of label shapes are rectangular or rounded at the top and / or at the bottom or tapering or polygonal fields.
  • the label has the shape of a folded fold or layered packet which is closed on both sides along the fold lines of the second field.
  • an object in this form such as with the first field in the row, which in turn is on the third ten field in the row is attached, so in this state, as with conventional labels, there is a single printable area.
  • the label opens and frees up further printable areas.
  • the labels according to the invention are affixed to the object with the outside of the first field, while this first field is affixed with its inside to the third field.
  • This attachment can be carried out in the usual way by gluing or sealing, this attachment preferably taking place over the entire surface. Since the first field in the row remains hidden after being glued to the object, even if the label is cut open properly, the first field can be made smaller than the second field without compromising the visual impression. This may be desirable for manufacturing or other reasons.
  • the label can also be glued or sealed onto the object with the outside of the second field.
  • the label according to the invention consists of only three fields, in addition to the outer side of the cover field in the closed state, only two further printable field areas are available after opening. For example are sufficient if one of the fields, which can be separated along the two folding lines of the second field, serves as a lot, discount stamp or collective picture.
  • the third field in the row is preferably followed by at least one further field via a folding line, which, like the first field in the row, is narrower than the second field in the direction perpendicular to the folding lines and plane-parallel between the second and third field is folded. If here in connection with different fields it is said that they should be narrower than the second field, this means any width difference in the direction perpendicular to the fold lines, although in general very small width differences are sufficient to avoid material jam during folding such as differences in width from 1/2 to 1 mm.
  • the third field in the row is preferably followed by several additional fields connected to one another by fold lines, the number of these fields being limited only by practical application.
  • These fields adjoining the third field can be folded onto one another in the form of a fan fold or a folded fold or with a combination form of both types of fold.
  • the multilayer package formed by them is in any case inserted between the third and second fields in order to have a closed line along the fold lines of the second field before the label is opened, so that the remaining fields are prevented from falling out.
  • the user In order to make the additional printable area inside the label accessible, the user only needs to cut open one of the fold lines of the second field with a knife or letter opener or the like, so that the label can be opened and the other fields fall out or are folded out can be. Then these fields can be separated as a whole or individually by tearing or cutting along the fold lines.
  • the fold lines In order to facilitate the opening of the label and the separation of the fields, it is preferred that the fold lines consist of perforation lines. The opening can be done by pressing against the one perforated fold line of the second field, for example with the help of a letter opener or the back of a knife. The separation can be done by simply tearing along the perforation lines.
  • elongated fields can be connected to one another by fold lines along their long as well as along their short sides.
  • the blank shown in Figure 1 has nine fields, which are designated with the letters of the alphabet from a to i. According to the invention, fields a to c are mandatory. The individual fields are provided with the reference number 1, the perforated folding lines between two fields with the reference number 2.
  • the fields d to i are folded like a leporello and / or plane-parallel one above the other.
  • the packet formed in this way is then folded onto the field c and with it onto the field b, whereupon the field a is folded over onto the rear side of the field c above and is glued to the entire surface thereof.
  • fields a and c are narrower than field b.
  • the field c is first folded plane parallel to the field b, whereupon the field a was folded onto the field c and glued to it over the entire area.
  • the adhesive layer is labeled 3.
  • Figure 2 clearly shows that the label is closed with its two long sides and can only be opened when one of the fold lines 2 is cut open or torn open. If a label is produced with more than three fields, this looks similar to that in FIG. 2, the remaining fields lying as a fan fold and / or a fold between fields b and c.
