Definitions

  • the invention relates to a label having at least one product information sheet and at least one hanger loop.
  • Labels of this type are known from US-A-5,967,560 and US-A-5,782,495.
  • the label known from US Pat. No. 5,967,560 has a hanger loop which runs in the edge area of the label and which is folded outwards for use.
  • information sheets in the form of a booklet and removable self-adhesive document sections are arranged (FIG. 15 of US Pat. No. 5,967,560).
  • the construction of the prior art label requires that the booklet and slip sections be mounted after attachment of the hanger loop.
  • For the cover sheet for covering the booklet and for generating the document sections an additional material layer is required. The preparation of the known label is therefore expensive.
  • US-A-5782495 discloses a label according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the hanger loop is integrally connected to a first side of the label. Before use, the hanger loop is folded over onto the label. On a second side of the label perpendicular to the first side, a cover sheet for a booklet is adhered which, prior to use, is folded over onto the label so that it overlies the folded hanger loop. Also with this label an additional material layer for the cover sheet of the booklet is required.
  • the booklet To use the label, the booklet must first be folded outwardly before the user can fold the hanger loop outwardly. For the user, it is not readily apparent before unfolding the booklet that the label is equipped with a hanger loop. In emergency situations, valuable time can be lost by searching for and unfolding the booklet and the hanger tab.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a label with at least one product information sheet and at least one hanger loop, which is inexpensive to manufacture and is characterized by ease of use.
  • the user should have the opportunity to unfold the product information sheet and the hanger loop as needed in any order.
  • a label is provided with a base layer on which at least one product information sheet is disposed, and with an over label layer disposed on the base layer and shaped to form at least one hanger loop and a cover sheet covering the at least one product information sheet ,
  • the cover sheet and the hanger loop are manufactured from a single material layer, namely from the top label layer.
  • the label is therefore characterized by rational and material-saving production compared to conventional solutions.
  • the individual components such as hanger loop and cover sheet, do not affect each other in use. Rather, the user is free to expose, for example, only the product information sheet after unfolding the cover sheet or unfold the hanger loop to hang the container provided with the label to a hook. The use is intuitive and without time-consuming study of a user manual to capture.
  • the upper label layer is designed so that it forms at least one removable self-adhesive document section.
  • the upper label layer has at least one self-adhesive region which is provided with punches or perforations which delimit the at least one document section, which preferably has a non-adhesive grip tab.
  • the base layer is advantageously provided with an adhesive-repellent layer, for example a silicone layer, in order to facilitate the removal of the self-adhesive document section.
  • the removal of the at least one document section is in no way affected by the other functions, such as unfolding the hanger loop or exposing the product information sheet. Rather, in contrast to conventional labels, all three functions mentioned are independent.
  • the upper label layer is optimally utilized, resulting in a considerable saving in manufacturing effort compared to the prior art.
  • the cover sheet on a self-adhesive part via which it is permanently connected to the base layer.
  • This part effectively represents the spine of the product information sheet or booklet.
  • the cover sheet has a non-adhesive portion covering the at least one product information sheet or booklet.
  • the cover sheet on another self-adhesive part lies on an adhesive-repellent layer of the base layer. He ensures a secure closure of the booklet or the product information sheet. Since it is releasably adhered to the appropriate place due to the adhesive repellency of the base layer, the closure can be easily opened, especially if it has a non-adhesive grip tab on which it can be easily gripped.
  • the hanger loop is formed by a strip separated from the top label layer which is connected to the top label layer at at least two root regions and thus forms a closed hanger loop.
  • the upper label layer has a first and a second longitudinal side and two transverse sides, and the two root regions are arranged on the first longitudinal side.
  • the hanger loop has a first branch which extends from the first root area towards the second root area. Before reaching the second root area it turns into a bend. An adjoining second branch runs from the bend in the direction of the second longitudinal side and has a turn in the region of the second longitudinal side. A third branch runs from the turn to the second root area of the first longitudinal side.
  • the cover sheet for the booklet or the product information sheet is placed outside the closed hanger loop.
  • the cover sheet arranged adjacent to the first branch and the second branch of the hanger loop.
  • the space between the second and third branch within the closed hanger loop is utilized according to a further advantageous embodiment for the arrangement of at least one detachable document section.
  • the label shown in FIG. 1 has a base layer 1 of rectangular outline and a top label layer 3 largely covering the base layer 1.
  • the base layer 1 is a film which is coated over its entire surface with a pressure-sensitive adhesive (not visible in the drawing) on its side lying in the illustration in FIG. 1, by means of which it is permanently attached to a drug container (not shown) during use, for example may.
  • the second side of the base layer 1 i.e., the side of the base layer 1 at the top in the drawing
  • the base layer 1 can also be printed with any desired decorative or informative nature.
  • the top label layer 3 adheres on the upper side of the base layer 1 in FIG. 1, at least in places. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the top label layer 3 projects beyond the contour of the base layer 1 at some points.
  • the upper label layer 3 is a preferably transparent film, which is coated on its side facing the base layer 1 with pressure-sensitive adhesive, by means of which it adheres at least partially to the base layer 1. As will be explained in detail below, however, it is necessary that the top label layer 3 at some points not or only slightly on the base layer. 1 adheres.
  • the layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive is printed with a so-called adhesive killer. This is, for example, a paint, which is applied to the adhesive layer.
  • the upper label layer 3 has a rectangular area which-as will be explained in more detail below-serves as cover sheet 5 for covering a product information sheet or booklet.
  • the cover sheet 5 is connected by means of an easily separable perforation punching 13 with the rest of the upper label layer 3, and easily detachable from this by separating the perforation punching 13.
  • a first part 5a the cover sheet 5 is self-adhesive.
  • a middle part 5b of the cover sheet it is non-adhesive, i. the existing on the underside of the cover sheet 5 layer of pressure sensitive adhesive is printed there with an adhesive killer.
  • the cover sheet 5 is in turn self-adhesive.
  • the cover sheet 5 has a grip tab 5d projecting beyond the contour of the base layer 1, which is non-adhesive on its underside. At this protruding, non-adhesive grip tab, the cover sheet 5 can be grasped and withdrawn. In the region of the adhesive part 5a of the cover sheet 5 this is firmly and permanently connected to the base layer 1. In the region 5c of the cover sheet, which is also self-adhesive, is on the base layer 1, the above-mentioned adhesive-repellent layer 8, which allows easy detachment of the part 5c of the base layer 1.
  • the hanger loop 4 is a narrow strip cut off by punching or perforation from the remaining upper label layer 3. This comprises a first branch 4c, which extends starting from a first root portion 4a approximately parallel to the longitudinal side 9 of the label. Thereafter, an approximately rectangular bend 4d is provided, after which the strip runs approximately parallel to the transverse side 12. This is followed in the vicinity of the second longitudinal side 10 a turn 4f. After this, the strip runs along the transverse side 12 to the second root region 4b.
  • the two root areas 4a and 4b are connected to each other via a web 14, so that a closed loop is formed.
  • the two root regions 4a and 4b - as far as they rest on the base layer 1 - and the two root portions 4a and 4b connecting web 14 of the top label layer 3 are permanently and resiliently connected to the base layer 1 by the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer on the underside of the top label layer 3.
  • the remaining parts of the hanger loop 4, so in particular the branches 4c, 4e and 4g and the bend 4d and the turn 4f are non-adhesive or only slightly adhesive, so that the hanger loop 4 can be easily lifted from the base layer 1. For this purpose, it can be gripped very comfortably at the over the base layer 1 above Kefre 4f.
  • the document section 7 is bounded on two opposite sides by the punching line of the branches 4e and 4g of the hanger loop 4.
  • the document section 7 can be separated from the remaining upper label layer 3 by a first perforation 15.
  • the document section 7 is divisible by a further perforation 16 into two sections 7a and 7b.
  • the document section 7 is self-adhesive on its side facing the base layer 1 so that it can be glued into a documentation underlay after separation. Only at his within the bend 4f on the contour of the base layer 1 protruding end of the slip portion 7 is non-sticky, so that he can be used there by the user, without this dirty his fingers with adhesive.
  • the above-mentioned adhesive-repellent layer 6 on the base layer 1 is located below the document section 7 and thus prevents a permanent connection between the document section 7 and the base layer 1.
  • FIG. 2 shows the label from FIG. 1, however, for explanatory purposes, the cover sheet 5 has been unfolded and the receipt section 7 has been cut out, while the hanger loop 4 remains unchanged in the position already shown in FIG.
  • the cover sheet 5 is knocked back, to which the user grips the cover sheet 5 on the non-adhesive, over the contour of the base layer 1 projecting Anfaciiasche 5d.
  • the Abdechblatt 5 is separated from the receipt section 7 and the branch 4 c of the hanger loop 4 by tearing the perforation 13.
  • repelling the cover sheet 5 a booklet 2 has been exposed, which consists of two product information sheets 2a and 2b.
  • the already mentioned adhesive-repellent layer 8 has been exposed, which is symbolized in Figure 2 by a Schrägschrafftechnik.
  • the Information on the product information sheets 2a and 2b be noted.
  • the opening of the booklet 2 is possible independently of the unfolding of the hanger loop 4.
  • the cover sheet is moved back into the position shown in Figure 1, so that the self-adhesive part 5c again comes into contact with the adhesive-repellent layer 8 on the base layer 1.
  • the bonding force between the part 5c of the cover sheet 5 and the adhesive-repellent layer 8 is sufficient to securely hold the cover sheet 5 in the closed position and to avoid self-opening.
  • the removed receipt section 7 can be separated into two parts in order to attach the information located on it to two different locations.
  • a perforation 16 facilitates the separation process.
  • FIG. 3 shows the label from FIG. 1, however, for explanatory purposes, the cover sheet 5 has been unfolded (as already shown in FIG. 2) and, in addition, the hanger loop 4 has been unfolded.
  • the document section 7 is located at its place of origin, as shown in FIG.
  • the easily detachable perforation 13 Figure 1 is separated, so that only the hanger loop 4 is lifted, while the slip portion 7 and the two root portions 4a and 4b connecting web 14 remain on the base layer 1.
  • the unfolded Hanger Schieiie 4 which consists of the non-adhesive parts 4c, 4d, 4e, 4f, 4g and from the firmly and permanently adhering to the base layer 1, the root portions 4a and 4b connecting web 14 is outlined. If the user wants to remove the document section completely or partially, he proceeds as well as explained with reference to FIG 2. Also, the closing of the booklet happens as already explained in connection with the description of Figure 2. Visible are the three processes, namely opening and closing the booklet 2, removing the document section 7 and unfolding the hanger loop independent of each other and can be executed in any order.
  • the label shown in Figures 1 to 3 and described above is intended to be mounted on a pharmaceutical infusion bottle (not shown).
  • the label is placed with the two root areas 4a and 4b facing the bottom of the infusion bottle.
  • the size of the label is chosen so that the mutual distance of the two root portions 4a and 4b corresponds to half the circumference of the bottle, so that the two roots are located at two diametrically opposite points of the infusion bottle.
  • the unfolded hanger loop 4 ( Figure 3) is then suspended from the hook of an infusion rack so that the infusion bottle hangs upside down, ie, with the bottle opening down, on the infusion rack ready for infusion administration.
  • the hanger loop 4 assumes the shape of a triangle as a result of acting on this weight of the infusion bottle.
