Definitions

  • the invention relates to a label for attachment to a container, with at least one Title block and at least one tab, which is arranged outside the title block and has at least one opening, wherein the tab in the longitudinal extension the title block connects.
  • Labels for attachment to containers of the most varied of types are known and are diverse Shape in the market.
  • such labels are made of paper or a thin plastic film, the labels simply on the respective container be stuck on.
  • the labels can be permanently attached to the container right from the start attached or provided as self-adhesive labels for subsequent attachment.
  • Such labels are not or only very difficult to remove without damage to remove the containers.
  • Permanently attached labels are often pre-printed with information, what references to different properties or peculiarities of the content the container included.
  • Self-adhesive labels are often pre-printed, but usually also intended for subsequent labeling.
  • the lettering is at least before the attachment to the container, as this, depending on the shape of the container, in particular for containers with a curved surface, rather after attachment to the container is difficult and uncomfortable.
  • the self-adhesive labels mostly difficult to remove without damaging the label.
  • Self-adhesive labels with low adhesive power also have the disadvantage that the adhesive power wears off after repeated use and the label does not wear off after some time more can be attached to the container.
  • a major disadvantage of the aforementioned Labels also consist of attaching them directly to the container and thus are limited in size because they are adapted to the dimensions of the container have to. This is particularly disadvantageous if subsequently and in particular continuously Information must be applied to the label.
  • DE 36 31 021 A1 describes a self-adhesive label of the generic type known, which with his writing field on in particular infusion or transfusion bottles can be glued on.
  • the label also has one outside the title block Tab on which in turn has an opening in the form of an elongated hole for hanging serves the bottle.
  • the use of the label is related to size and Weight of the container on the type of adhesive and the available adhesive surface dependent, since the label with its adhesive surface on the back of the title block must bear the entire weight of the bottle.
  • the front side of the glued surface serves as a text field and thus for information. It can be act pre-printed or subsequently applied information.
  • the Tab also has an opening for attachment to a container.
  • the object is achieved in that the title block has a large area Area that forms on one side across and across the length of the tab extends a multiple of their width, and that the tab by means of the opening for attachment is formed on a preferably cylindrical part of a container and this at least partially encloses when attached.
  • the writing field forms one aroß Structure area that is practically shaped like a flag on the tab. Since this Area extends over a multiple of the width of the tab, it can be practical have any surface adapted to the respective requirements. Through this advantageous solution, it is possible to subsequently larger amounts of information, even about one long time to apply on the writing field.
  • the tab is used for fastening or hanging the label on a part of a container, which part in attached state at least partially encloses. Using the opening inside the tab This opens up a wide range of fastening options, including an adjustment different dimensions of the container is possible.
  • the Attachment to a preferably cylindrical part of the container for example the neck of a bottle, a handle or the like.
  • an easily accessible part of the container can be selected.
  • the writing field is arranged on one side transverse to the longitudinal extension of the tab the writing field practically flag-like from the tab and is therefore easily accessible and readable.
  • the label according to the invention is preferably formed in one piece and thus easy and inexpensive to manufacture. In addition, the handling by the user very convenient, as he can simply attach the label to the container by hanging it in can decrease again.
  • the title block can either consist of one inscribable material exist or be provided with an inscribable material. If the title block itself can be labeled, it should be made of a firmer material, for example Cardboard or plastic, so that labeling is also possible if the label is not detached from the container. If in an alternative embodiment Lettering field is provided with a material that can be labeled, for example this material Be paper, whereas the title block is made of a firmer material, for example Cardboard or plastic. With this alternative, the inscribable material can be fixed or be releasably attached to the writing field.
  • the title block is preferably to subsequent application of information provided and particularly suitable.
  • the title block can be at least partially pre-printed his.
  • the label can already contain substance-specific information and / or be provided with a grid or other division that allows the entry of the facilitate the information required.
  • the title block can also be particularly advantageous Embodiment have a partial area, for example, by a perforation or the like. Is designed to be separable. This separable area can, for example Order information such as order numbers or product-specific information.
  • Order information such as order numbers or product-specific information.
  • the opening is round and / or one Dimensioning adapted to the shape of the part of the container is a problem Attachment to the container possible.
  • a circular opening inside the Flap advantageous, so that the label is simply attached to the bottle neck with its opening can be.
  • you can several openings with different diameters may also be provided.
  • openings can also be provided which are dimensioned are adapted to the shape of the respective part of the container. So can the invention Label can be easily adapted to different applications.
  • the Opening also different due to several round, intersecting openings Be formed diameter.
  • the variability of the label can be related on the dimensions of the container, in particular the diameter of bottle necks, be adapted, with this solution the entire opening takes up less space has as a plurality of spaced apart openings. This allows the length of the Tab can be reduced in an advantageous manner.
  • the tab of the label can be in a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention also have a tapered section, preferably through two recesses, the Width is at least not significantly larger than the diameter of the opening. It is the opening between the section and the integrally formed writing field.
  • the tab can be formed from the tab a loop, which is the part of the container for attaching the label.
  • the free end the tab with its tapered section pushed into the opening, which is a certain Requires flexibility of the material.
  • attach the label to parts of the container that have no free end or their free end has too large a diameter, due to which an attachment is no longer possible by means of a circular opening.
  • the embodiment is therefore special suitable for bottles whose bottle neck widens towards the opening, or for containers with a handle without free ends.
  • the label according to the invention can be made of plastic, Paper and / or cardboard exist.
  • the label can consist of the same Material. But it is also possible to use different materials, i.e. For example, to make the label from plastic and the title block with paper or to provide a writable film. In this regard too, the label can be sent to the be adapted to the respective needs and requirements.
  • FIG. 1 shows a top view of a label 1 according to the invention, which consists of a writing field 2 and a tab 3 formed thereon.
  • the tab 3 is elongated and has a circular opening 4, by means of which the label 1 is attached to a container can be.
  • the attachment to the Container for example a bottle or the like, by attaching the tab 3 on part of the container, for example a bottle neck.
  • the label 1 attached to the part of the container by means of the opening 4, so that the tab 3 this part partially encloses the container.
  • the writing field 2 has a large area 5 on which extends on one side transversely to the longitudinal extension of the tab 3 to a multiple of their width increased.
  • the title block 2 practically faces in the form of a flag the tab 3 so that the area 5 stands out from the tab 3 in an advantageous manner.
  • the label 1 is attached to the container by means of the tab 3 and the opening 4 is therefore the title block 2 is clearly visible to any user and in a simple manner accessible. Therefore, even when attached, there is a subsequent labeling of the large area Area 5 easily possible. Due to the detachable attachment to the container the label 1 can also be detached from the container in a simple manner that the label 1 can also be labeled at another location.
  • the large area In the case of the label 1 according to the invention, 5 can have virtually any dimensions be adapted to the respective requirements.
  • the area of the title block 2 is therefore practically regardless of the size of the container, so that a subsequent application larger amounts of information is easily possible.
  • the title block 2 can either consist of an inscribable material or provided with such a material his.
  • the opening 4 can also be adapted to the respective dimensions of the container, in particular with regard to shape and diameter. In an alternative Embodiment of the invention, several openings can also be provided.
  • Fig. 2 shows a plan view of a label 6 according to the invention, which also consists of a Title block 7 and a tab 8 there.
  • the title block is 7 formed in a flag shape on the tab 8.
  • the tab 8 has an opening 9 here, however, which is formed from three round, cut openings 10, 11, 12.
  • This Openings 10, 11, 12 have different diameters, the diameters being different enlarge in the direction of the title block.
  • This embodiment has an arrangement several separate openings of different diameters the advantage that here the openings 10, 11, 12 extend over a shorter length, so that the length of the Tab 8 can be kept low.
  • FIG. 3 shows a top view of a further label 13 according to the invention, which alternative Features of the invention.
  • the title block 14 also has one here Subarea 15, which is separable.
  • Subarea 15 can, for example, provide perforation or material weakening be what is indicated here by the dashed line 16.
  • the partial area 15 can for example be pre-printed with information that is a reorder in the container located substance allows. If the user notices that the substance is running low is possible, he can simply re-order the part 15 by which means an additional relief of work.
  • Lettering field 14 is also at this embodiment, arranged in a flag-like manner, transversely to the longitudinal extent of the tab 17.
  • the tab 17 has a circular opening 18 which is used for the attachment of the label 13 on the container is required. In the vicinity of its free end 19, the tab 17 also has two oppositely arranged recesses 20, 21, so that a tapered Section 22 is created. For attachment to the container, the free end 19 can now in the Opening 18 are inserted so that the tapered portion 22 practically in the opening 18th locks. As a result, the tab 17 forms a loop with which it forms part of the container, for example, partially encloses a handle that has no free end. Since that Lettering field 14 in the label 13 according to the invention has a significantly larger area than that Has tab 17, the opening 18 between the tapered portion 22 and the Title block 14 may be arranged.
  • the tab point 17 a free end 19 so that it can be used for fixation in the opening 18 can.
  • the insertion of the free end 19 into the opening 18 sets a certain flexibility of the material ahead. Otherwise, the width of the tapered section 22 should be smaller or at least not be significantly larger than the diameter of the opening 18, since otherwise a loop formation would not be possible in this way.
  • FIG. 4 shows yet another alternative embodiment of the label according to the invention 33, which is designed in the area of its title block 7 like a small copybook 30.
  • the individual pages 32 of the exercise book 30 can be removed or removed, what is indicated by a perforation 34.
  • the copybook 30 could also extend up to that extend the upper edge of the tab 8.
  • the entire label could be multi-layered be designed like a notebook or pad, with each individual sheet 32 of such a copybook or block would be designed as a label as a whole, that would be separable from the other labels (pages of the exercise book or notebook).
