Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Band oder Blatt zum Bedrucken mittels eines Druckers, wobei das Band bzw. Blatt an seiner einen flachen Seite bedruckbar ist und an seiner anderen flachen Seite eine Klebe- oder Haftschicht aufweist, welche kleberfreie oder haftstofffreie Bereiche und klebende bzw. haftende Bereiche aufweist, die zumindest in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung des Bandes bzw. Blattes voneinander beabstandet sind.The present invention relates to a tape or sheet for printing by means of a printer, the tape or sheet being printable on one flat side and having an adhesive or adhesive layer on its other flat side, which areas are adhesive-free or adhesive-free and adhesive or adhesive Has areas that are spaced apart at least in the longitudinal direction of the tape or sheet.

Ein entsprechendes Band ist aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannt. Bei Druckern, die BƤnder bedrucken, welche eine Haft- oder Klebeschicht aufweisen, besteht stets das Problem, dass die Schneidmesser durch das Haftmittel bzw. den Kleber verschmutzen und ihre Funktion verlieren bzw. das Band nur noch schlecht oder nicht mehr sauber durchtrennt wird. Eine Reinigung der Schneidvorrichtung ist in der Regel nicht mƶglich, so dass die Schneidvorrichtung als Modul ausgetauscht werden muss. Es hat sich gezeigt, dass beim Verwenden derartige Drucker im Logistikbereich pro Jahr beim Durschneiden von Papier mit durchgehender und somit nicht unterbrochener Klebeschicht, die Drucker aufgrund der Verunreinigung durch die Klebstoffreste eine hohe Ausfallrate aufweisen. Die GerƤte und speziell die Schneideinrichtungen mĆ¼ssen bei Verwendung von Papier ohne unterbrochene Klebeschicht regelmƤƟig gereinigt und gewartet werden, da die Schneideinrichtungen laufend durch die Kleberschicht schneiden mĆ¼ssen, wobei speziell die Schneiden verkleben. Aus diesem Grund weist das aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannte Band an seiner der bedruckbaren flachen Seite abgewandten flachen Seite eine Klebe- oder Haftschicht auf, welche kleberfreie oder haftstofffreie Bereiche und klebende bzw. haftende Bereiche aufweist, die zumindest in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung des Bandes voneinander beabstandet sind. Der Drucker weist eine Sensoreinrichtung auf, mittels derer die kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereiche detektierbar sind, so dass die Bandvorschubeinrichtung das Band zum Abschneiden stets derart relativ zum Schneidwerk positionieren kann, dass die Schneidmesser das Band stets nur im kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereich schneidet und es hierdurch vorteilhaft nicht zu einem Verkleben des Schneidwerkes kommt.A corresponding tape is out WO 2012/167806 A1 known. With printers that print tapes that have an adhesive or adhesive layer, there is always the problem that the cutting knives become soiled by the adhesive or the adhesive and lose their function, or the tape is only poorly or no longer severed properly. Cleaning the cutting device is generally not possible, so that the cutting device must be replaced as a module. It has been shown that when such printers are used in the logistics sector each year when cutting through paper with a continuous and therefore uninterrupted adhesive layer, the printers have a high failure rate due to contamination by the adhesive residues. The devices and especially the cutting devices must be cleaned and serviced regularly when using paper without an interrupted adhesive layer, since the cutting devices have to cut through the adhesive layer continuously, the cutting edges especially sticking together. For this reason, it shows WO 2012/167806 A1 known tape on its flat side facing away from the printable flat side has an adhesive or adhesive layer which has adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas and adhesive or adhesive areas which are at least in the longitudinal direction of the tape from one another are spaced. The printer has a sensor device by means of which the adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas can be detected, so that the tape feed device can always position the tape for cutting in such a way that the cutting knife only cuts the tape in the adhesive-free or adhesive-free area and it this advantageously prevents the cutting unit from sticking together.

Nachteilig bei dem aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannten Band ist, dass die bedruckbare flache Seite mit einer Antihaft- bzw. Antiklebeschicht, z.B. in Form einer Silikonschicht, beschichtet sein muss, damit das Band aufrollbar ist.A disadvantage of that WO 2012/167806 A1 Known tape is that the printable flat side must be coated with a non-stick or anti-adhesive layer, for example in the form of a silicone layer, so that the tape can be rolled up.

Ferner sind bedruckbare BƤnder bekannt, welche eine Klebeschicht aufweisen, welche an der bedruckbaren Seite angeordnet sind, wobei die BƤnder eine zusƤtzliche abziehbare Folie aufweisen, mittels derer die Klebeschicht abgedeckt ist, so dass sich das Band aufrollen lƤsst.Furthermore, printable tapes are known which have an adhesive layer which is arranged on the printable side, the tapes having an additional peelable film by means of which the adhesive layer is covered, so that the tape can be rolled up.

Aus US 4,460,634 , US 6,461,727 und DE 3403364 A1 sind Aufkleber vorbekannt, welche eine bedruckbare Papierschicht aufweisen, die an ihrer RĆ¼ckseite eine Klebstoffschicht haben, welche Bereiche aufweist, die nicht mit Klebstoff benetzt sind. Die Klebstoffschicht sowie die Bereiche ohne Klebstoff sind mit einer abziehbaren Folie bedeckt.Out US 4,460,634 , US 6,461,727 and DE 3403364 A1 there are previously known stickers which have a printable paper layer which has an adhesive layer on its rear side which has regions which are not wetted with adhesive. The adhesive layer and the areas without adhesive are covered with a peelable film.

Aus DE 3403364 A1 ist ein Verfahren und Vorrichtung zur Herstellung von bandfƶrmigen Haftetikettenmaterial sowie Selbstklebeetiketten bekannt. Auch diese Haftetiketten sind Ƥhnlich zu denen aus US 64 61 727 B1 bekannten Aufkleber aufgebaut.Out DE 3403364 A1 a method and device for producing tape-shaped adhesive label material and self-adhesive labels is known. These adhesive labels are also similar to those made from US 64 61 727 B1 known stickers built.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein bedruckbares Band mit einer Klebeschicht und einer diese bedeckenden und abziehbaren Folie bereitzustellen, bei dem die nicht klebenden Bereiche leicht erkennbar sind.The object of the present invention is to provide a printable tape with an adhesive layer and a film covering and peeling it off, in which the non-adhesive areas are easily recognizable.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einer Folie mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelƶst.This object is achieved with a film having the features of claim 1.

Die Folie zeichnet sich u.a. dadurch aus, dass die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht mittels einer abziehbaren Folie, einer abziehbaren oder auflƶsbaren Beschichtung abgedeckt ist. Die Folie wird dabei beim Abschneiden bzw. Durchtrennen des Bandes mit durchtrennt. Sowohl das im Drucker verbleibende Band als auch der bedruckte abgeschnittene Bandabschnitt wird durch die Folie weiterhin geschĆ¼tzt und ein unerwĆ¼nschtes Ankleben bzw. Anhaften wird vorteilhaft verhindert. Sofern der bedruckte und abgeschnittene Bandbereich auf einer FlƤche oder einem Gegenstand aufgeklebt werden soll, kann die Folie bzw. die Beschichtung vom Band abgezogen bzw. entfernt werden, wodurch die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht freiliegt und ein Aufkleben bzw. Anhaften mƶglich ist.The film is characterized, inter alia, in that the adhesive or adhesive layer is covered by a peelable film, a peelable or dissolvable coating. The film is also cut when the tape is cut or cut. Both the ribbon remaining in the printer and the printed cut-off tape section is further protected by the film and undesired sticking or adhering is advantageously prevented. If the printed and cut tape area is to be glued to a surface or an object, the film or the coating can be pulled off or removed from the tape, as a result of which the adhesive or adhesive layer is exposed and gluing or adhering is possible.

Da die klebenden bzw. haftenden Bereiche zumindest in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung des Bandes oder Blattes durch die kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereiche voneinander beabstandet sind, kann vorteilhaft, wie auch bei dem aus WO2012/167806 A1 bekannten Band, das erfindungsgemƤƟe Band durch die kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereiche geschnitten werden, so dass die Schneiden des Druckers nicht verkleben. Hierdurch muss der Drucker wesentlich seltener gewartet und gereinigt werden, was die TCO stark senkt.Since the adhesive or adhesive regions are spaced apart from one another at least in the longitudinal direction of the tape or sheet by the adhesive-free or adhesive-free regions, it can also be advantageous, as in the case of that WO2012 / 167806 A1 known tape, the tape according to the invention can be cut through the adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas, so that the cutting edges of the printer do not stick together. As a result, the printer has to be serviced and cleaned much less frequently, which greatly reduces the TCO.

Hierdurch ist es z.B. vorteilhaft mƶglich, das erfindungsgemƤƟe Band bzw. Blatt zum Herstellen von Briefmarken zu verwenden. Aufgrund der fehlenden Silikonbeschichtung auf der bedruckbaren Seite kann die aus dem erfindungsgemƤƟen Band bzw. Blatt hergestellte Briefmarke mittels eines Stempels entwertet werden, was bei einer Silikonbeschichtung nicht mƶglich wƤre, da die Stempeltinte von der Silikonbeschichtung abwischbar ist.This makes it e.g. advantageously possible to use the tape or sheet according to the invention for producing stamps. Due to the lack of silicone coating on the printable side, the stamp produced from the tape or sheet according to the invention can be canceled by means of a stamp, which would not be possible with a silicone coating, since the stamp ink can be wiped off the silicone coating.

Das erfindungsgemƤƟe Band bzw. Blatt kann Prinzip bedingt aus einem beliebigen bedruckbaren Material, insbesondere Papier, wie z.B. Thermopapier oder Thermotransferpapier, oder Karton sein. Auch kann das Band bzw. Blatt eine TrƤgerfolie aufweisen, deren eine flache Seite die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht mit den kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereichen aufweist, welche wiederum mit der abziehbaren Folie oder Beschichtung bedeckt ist. Die TrƤgerfolie selbst kann auch mehrschichtig aufgebaut sein. Es muss lediglich sichergestellt sein, dass die bedruckbare Seite auch mit z.B. Stempeltinte oder FĆ¼llertinten oder sonstigen Druck- oder Malfarben beschreibbar ist.The tape or sheet according to the invention can in principle be made of any printable material, in particular paper, such as Thermal paper or thermal transfer paper, or cardboard. The tape or sheet can also have a carrier film, one flat side of which has the adhesive or adhesive layer with the adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas, which in turn is covered with the peelable film or coating. The carrier film itself can also have a multilayer structure. It only has to be ensured that the printable page also with e.g. Stamp ink or fountain pen inks or other printing or staining is writable.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung sind die LƤngsseiten des Bandes nicht gerade, sondern weisen Zacken wie herkƶmmliche Briefmarken auf. Die Randbereiche der LƤngsseiten kƶnnen dabei ebenfalls keine Kleberschicht oder Haftmittelschicht aufweisen, so dass beim aufgerollten Band, wie bereits in WO2012/167806 A1 beschrieben, kein Klebstoff seitlich austritt bzw. die Bandrolle seitlich nicht klebt.In a further embodiment, the long sides of the tape are not straight, but have serrations like conventional stamps. The edge regions of the long sides can likewise have no adhesive layer or adhesive layer, so that when the tape is rolled up, as already in FIG WO2012 / 167806 A1 described, no adhesive escapes from the side or the tape roll does not stick to the side.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung weist das erfindungsgemƤƟe Band bzw. Blatt zusƤtzlich sich in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung des Bandes bzw. Blattes erstreckende durchgehende kleberfreie bzw. haftstofffreie Streifen auf, so dass das Band bzw. Blatt auch in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung durchschneidbar ist. Vorteilhaft kann das Band bzw. Blatt im Bereich der kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereiche und Streifen perforiert sein, so dass es per Hand oder maschinell in kleinere Teile auseinanderreiƟbar ist. Die Perforation kann selbstverstƤndlich auch mittels des Druckers erzeugt werden, wobei die Perforationseinrichtung des Druckers steuerbar ist und damit die Perforation bedarfsweise und an verschiedenen Stellen des Bandes bzw. Blattes herstellbar ist.In a further embodiment, the tape or sheet according to the invention additionally has continuous adhesive-free or adhesive-free strips extending in the longitudinal direction of the tape or sheet, so that the tape or sheet can also be cut through in the longitudinal direction. The tape or sheet can advantageously be perforated in the area of the adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas and strips, so that it can be torn apart into smaller parts by hand or by machine. The perforation can of course also be produced by means of the printer, the perforation device of the printer being controllable and thus the perforation being able to be produced as required and at different locations on the band or sheet.

Durch das erfindungsgemƤƟe Vorsehen von Perforationen kƶnnen mittels des erfindungsgemƤƟen Bandes bzw. Blattes zusammenhƤngende Briefmarken oder Labels gedruckt werden, die erst bei Bedarf leicht hƤndisch und an der vorgesehenen Stelle bzw. Stellen voneinander getrennt werden kƶnnen.Through the provision of perforations according to the invention, coherent stamps or labels can be printed by means of the tape or sheet according to the invention, which can only be easily separated by hand and at the intended location or locations if required.

Wie bereits erlƤutert, kann das Band auf einer Rolle aufgerollt sein. Es ist jedoch auch mƶglich, dass das Band zu einem Stapel in Form eines Liporellos zusammengefaltet ist.As already explained, the tape can be rolled up on a roll. However, it is also possible for the tape to be folded into a stack in the form of a liporello.

Dadurch, dass sich die bedruckbare Schicht durchgehend Ć¼ber die gesamte LƤnge des Bandes in BandlƤngsrichtung erstreckt, kann vorteilhaft die LƤnge des bedruckbaren Bereichs in BandlƤngsrichtung frei bestimmt werden. Es ist lediglich eine Schneideinrichtung oder eine AbreiƟeinrichtung notwendig, um das bedruckte Band von dem noch nicht bedruckten Band zu trennen. Vorteilhaft wird das Band nur dort durchtrennt, wo sich keine Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht befindet.Because the printable layer extends continuously over the entire length of the tape in the longitudinal direction of the tape, the length of the printable area in the longitudinal direction of the tape can advantageously be freely determined. All that is required is a cutting device or a tear-off device in order to separate the printed tape from the tape that has not yet been printed. The tape is advantageously cut only where there is no adhesive or adhesive layer.

Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht mittels mindestens zwei sich in BandlƤngsrichtung erstreckenden FolienbƤndern bedeckt ist, welche in BandlƤngsrichtung nebeneinander angeordnet sind. Dabei ist zu bevorzugen, wenn das Band lediglich zwei FolienbƤnder aufweist, die entweder aneinandergrenzen oder sich leicht Ć¼berlappen. Durch die Verwendung von mindestens zwei, vorteilhaft genau zwei, FolienbƤndern, kƶnnen diese leicht vom bedruckten Band z.B. mittels Verbiegen des Bandes von der Haft-/Klebeschicht abgelƶst werden.It is advantageous if the adhesive or adhesive layer is covered by at least two foil tapes which extend in the tape longitudinal direction and which are arranged next to one another in the tape longitudinal direction. It is preferable if the tape has only two film tapes that either adjoin one another or overlap slightly. By using at least two, advantageously exactly two, foil tapes, these can easily be detached from the printed tape, for example by bending the tape from the adhesive / adhesive layer.

Nachfolgend wird das erfindungsgemƤƟe Band anhand von Zeichnungen nƤher erlƤutert.The band according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to drawings.

Die Figur 1 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf die mit Kleber beschichtete Unterseite des aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannten Bandes 1, wobei der Kleber in Streifenform mittels Querstreifen 2 auf das Band aufgetragen ist. Zwischen den Kleberstreifen 2 befinden sich kleberfreien Querstreifen 3, in deren Bereichen mittels einer Schneidvorrichtung eines Druckers das Band durchtrennbar ist. Die gestrichelte Linie S zeigt die mƶgliche Platzierung einer Schneidvorrichtung an. Das Band wird in LƤngsrichtung L mittels einer Transportvorrichtung transportiert. Die Transportvorrichtung dient dabei zur Positionierung des Bandes 1 Ć¼ber der Schneidvorrichtung S. Das Band weist eine Stirnseite 7 sowie LƤngsseiten 6 auf. Rechts vom Band ist eine AusschnittsvergrĆ¶ĆŸerung des Bandes mit seinen Klebestreifen 2 dargestellt. Zwischen den Klebestreifen 2 sind die klebefreien Streifen 3 angeordnet, wobei die Klebestreifen 2 eine Breite 4 und die klebefreien Bereiche eine Breite 5 aufweisen. Prinzipiell sind die Breiten 4, 5 beliebig zu wƤhlen. Prinzip bedingt ist es jedoch sinnvoll, dass die Breite 5 mƶglichst klein gewƤhlt wird, sodass eine mƶglichst gute Haftung des Bandes 1 gegeben ist. Die Breite 5 hƤngt dabei maƟgeblich von der Dimensionierung der Schneidvorrichtung ab. Das heiƟt, es muss sichergestellt werden, dass die Breite 5 so groƟ gewƤhlt wird, dass beim Schneidvorgang kein Klebstoff oder Haftmaterial die Schneiden der Schneidvorrichtung verschmutzt. Die Breite 4 der Klebestreifen 2 sollte ebenfalls mƶglichst klein ausgebildet sein, damit an mƶglichst eng zueinander liegenden Stellen das Band geschnitten werden kann. Hierdurch wird erreicht, dass das Band bestmƶglich ausgenutzt werden kann. Die Klebestreifen 2 weisen bei der AusfĆ¼hrungsform gemƤƟ Figur 1 eine grĆ¶ĆŸere Breite 4 auf, als die klebefreien Bereiche 5.The Figure 1 shows a plan view of the underside of the coated with adhesive WO 2012/167806 A1 known tape 1, the adhesive being applied in strip form by means of transverse strips 2 to the tape. Adhesive-free transverse strips 3 are located between the adhesive strips 2, in the areas of which the strip can be severed by means of a cutting device of a printer. The dashed line S indicates the possible placement of a cutting device. The tape is transported in the longitudinal direction L by means of a transport device. The transport device serves to position the belt 1 over the cutting device S. The belt has an end face 7 and long sides 6. To the right of the tape is an enlarged detail of the tape with its adhesive strips 2. The adhesive-free strips 3 are arranged between the adhesive strips 2, the adhesive strips 2 having a width 4 and the adhesive-free regions having a width 5. In principle, the widths 4, 5 can be chosen arbitrarily. In principle, however, it makes sense that the width 5 is chosen to be as small as possible so that the tape 1 adheres as well as possible. The width 5 depends crucially on the dimensioning of the cutting device. This means that it must be ensured that the width 5 is chosen so large that no adhesive or adhesive material contaminates the cutting edges of the cutting device during the cutting process. The width 4 of the adhesive strips 2 should also be made as small as possible so that the tape can be cut at points as close as possible to one another. This ensures that the tape is used in the best possible way can be. In the embodiment according to FIG. 1, the adhesive strips 2 have a greater width 4 than the non-adhesive areas 5.

In Figur 2 ist eine zweite mƶgliche Ausbildung des aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannten Bandes 1 dargestellt, bei der die Breite eines Klebestreifens 2 gleich ist mit der Breite der klebefreien Bereiche. ZusƤtzlich sind die Randbereiche 8 des Bandes 1 klebstofffrei ausgebildet, sodass sichergestellt ist, dass an den seitlichen Bereichen des aufgewickelten Bandes 1 kein Kleber austritt. Die Randbereiche 8 sollten dabei so schmal wie mƶglich ausgebildet sein, damit der Rand 6 des aufgeklebten Bons bzw. Etiketts sich nicht abheben kann.In Figure 2 is a second possible education from WO 2012/167806 A1 known tape 1 shown, in which the width of an adhesive strip 2 is equal to the width of the non-adhesive areas. In addition, the edge regions 8 of the tape 1 are designed to be adhesive-free, so that it is ensured that no adhesive escapes from the lateral areas of the wound tape 1. The edge areas 8 should be made as narrow as possible so that the edge 6 of the glued receipt or label cannot stand out.

Die Figur 3 zeigt einen Querschnitt durch das aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannte Band 1. Das Band 1 weist eine TrƤgerschicht 9 auf, die an ihrer einen Seite, welche insbesondere die Druckseite ist, eine Silikonschicht 10 auf, damit diese Seite nicht bei dem aufgerollten Band 1 mit den Klebestreifen 2 des Bandes 1 kleben bleibt. An der Unterseite des Bandes 1 sind die Klebestreifen 2 in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung 2 im Abstand zueinander angeordnet und bilden zwischen sich die klebefreien Bereiche 3.The Figure 3 shows a cross section through the WO 2012/167806 A1 Known tape 1. The tape 1 has a backing layer 9, which on its one side, which is in particular the printing side, has a silicone layer 10, so that this side does not stick to the rolled-up tape 1 with the adhesive strips 2 of the tape 1. On the underside of the tape 1, the adhesive strips 2 are arranged at a distance from one another in the longitudinal direction 2 and form the non-adhesive areas 3 between them.

Im Gegensatz zum aus WO2012/167806 bekannten Band 1 weist das in Figur 4 im Querschnitt dargestellte erfindungsgemƤƟe Band 1 als Ersatz fĆ¼r die Silikonschicht 10 eine abziehbare Folie F auf. Alternativ zur abziehbaren Folie F kann auch eine entfernbare bzw. abziehbare oder auflƶsbare Beschichtung AB vorgesehen werden.In contrast to from WO2012 / 167806 known volume 1 shows in Figure 4 Band 1 according to the invention, shown in cross section, has a removable film F as a replacement for the silicone layer 10. As an alternative to the peelable film F, a removable or peelable or dissolvable coating AB can also be provided.

Die Figur 5 zeigt eine weitere mƶgliche AusfĆ¼hrungsform des erfindungsgemƤƟen Bandes 1, welches zusƤtzlich zu den quer zur LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L des Bandes 1 verlaufenden kleberlosen Bereichen 3 noch sich in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung erstreckende kleberlose streifenfƶrmige Bereiche LS aufweist. Im Bereich der kleberlosen streifenfƶrmigen Bereiche LS kann das bedruckte Band mittels einer aus WO 2012/167806 A1 bekannten Schneidvorrichtung eines Druckers geschnitten werden. Es ist jedoch selbstverstƤndlich auch mƶglich, dass das bedruckte Band auch hƤndisch mittels einer Schere zerschnitten werden kann. Auch ist es mƶglich, dass im Bereich der kleberlosen streifenfƶrmigen Bereiche LS sich in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L erstreckende Perforationen eingearbeitet sind oder mittels eines Druckers einarbeitbar sind.The Figure 5 shows a further possible embodiment of the tape 1 according to the invention which, in addition to the adhesive-free areas 3 running transversely to the longitudinal direction L of the tape 1, also has adhesive-free strip-shaped areas LS extending in the longitudinal direction. In the area of the adhesive-free, strip-shaped areas LS, the printed tape can be made out by means of a WO 2012/167806 A1 known cutting device of a printer can be cut. However, it is of course also possible that the printed tape can also be cut by hand using scissors. It is also possible that perforations extending in the longitudinal direction L are incorporated in the region of the adhesive-free strip-shaped regions LS or can be incorporated by means of a printer.

In Figur 6 ist eine weitere mƶgliche AusfĆ¼hrungsform eines erfindungsgemƤƟen Bandes 1 dargestellt, welches sich in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L erstreckende Perforationsbereiche PFL aufweist, welche zueinander beabstandet sind. ZusƤtzlich sind in regelmƤƟigen AbstƤnden zueinander sich quer zur LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L erstreckende Perforationsbereiche PFQ vorhanden. Die Perforationsbereiche PFL, PFQ kƶnnen vom Kleber 2 bzw. Haftmittel bedeckt sein. Es ist jedoch auch mƶglich, dass das Band 1 im Bereich der Perforationsbereiche PFL, PFQ kleberfrei bzw. haftmittelfrei ist. Die Perforationsbereiche PFL, PFQ kƶnnen entweder vorgefertigt sein, oder aber vom Drucker in das Band an beliebigen oder fest vorgegebenen Stellen bedarfsweise eingearbeitet werden.In Figure 6 A further possible embodiment of a band 1 according to the invention is shown which has perforation regions PFL which extend in the longitudinal direction L and which are spaced apart from one another. In addition, perforation areas PF Q which extend transversely to the longitudinal direction L are present at regular intervals from one another. The perforation areas PF L , PF Q can be covered by the adhesive 2 or adhesive. However, it is also possible for the tape 1 to be adhesive-free or adhesive-free in the area of the perforation areas PF L , PF Q. The perforation areas PF L , PF Q can either be prefabricated or, if required, can be worked into the belt at any or predetermined locations by the printer.

Mit dem in Figur 6 dargestellten Band 1 ist es somit mƶglich, Wertmarken oder Ƥhnliches auszudrucken, diese entweder hƤndisch oder automatisch abzutrennen oder zu vereinzeln. Durch die auf der Kleberschicht 2 aufgebrachte abziehbare Folie F bzw. der Beschichtung AB ist es mƶglich, die hergestellten Wertmarken problemlos zu transportieren, ohne dass der Kleber 2 bzw. das Haftmittel ungewollt an GegenstƤnden oder z.B. im Portemonnaie festklebt.With the in Figure 6 Volume 1 shown, it is thus possible to print out tokens or the like, to separate them either manually or automatically or to separate them. The peelable film F or the coating AB applied to the adhesive layer 2 makes it possible to easily transport the tokens produced without the adhesive 2 or the adhesive sticking to objects or, for example, in the wallet unintentionally.

Die Figur 7 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf die bereichsweise mit Klebstoff beschichtete Seite eines erfindungsgemƤƟen bedruckbaren Bandes 1 mit seitlich angeordneten Markierungen M. Die Markierungen M sind im Bereich des einen kleberfreien Bereichs 8 entlang der LƤngsseite 6 zur Erkennung der kleberfreien bzw. haftstofffreien Bereiche 2 und/oder der mit Klebstoff bzw. Haftmittel beschichteten Bereiche 2 aufgebracht oder eingearbeitet. SelbstverstƤndlich kƶnnen die Markierungen auch beidseitig in beiden kleberfreien Bereichen 8 angeordnet werden. Die Markierungen M kƶnnen aufgedruckte Symbole, insbesondere in Form von Strichen, Rechtecken oder Punkten sein und sind durch Ausstanzungen in Form von Lƶchern gebildet. Die Markierungen M sind dabei in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L des Bandes 1 in, insbesondere regelmƤƟigen, AbstƤnden zueinander angeordnet. Der Drucker erkennt mit seinem Sensor die Markierungen M durch die insbesondere transparente und abziehbare Folie F bzw. die Beschichtung AB hindurch und kann anhand der Kenntnis der Positionierung der Markierungen relativ zu den Bereichen 2, 3 das Band 1 bzw. das Blatt 1' relativ zum Druckkopf und/oder zum Schneidwerk und/oder zur Perforationseinrichtung positionieren, damit der Druck, das Schneiden und/oder das Perforieren an den richtigen Stellen erfolgt.The Figure 7 shows a plan view of the side coated with adhesive of a printable tape 1 according to the invention with laterally arranged markings M. The markings M are in the area of the one adhesive-free area 8 along the long side 6 for recognizing the adhesive-free or adhesive-free areas 2 and / or with Adhesive or adhesive coated areas 2 applied or incorporated. Of course, the markings can also be arranged on both sides in both adhesive-free areas 8. The markings M can be printed symbols, in particular in the form of lines, rectangles or dots, and are formed by punched-outs in the form of holes. The markings M are arranged in the longitudinal direction L of the strip 1 at, in particular, regular intervals from one another. With its sensor, the printer recognizes the markings M through the in particular transparent and peelable film F or the coating AB and, based on the knowledge of the positioning of the markings relative to the areas 2, 3, the tape 1 or the sheet 1 'relative to the Print head and / or to the cutting unit and / or to the perforation device position so that printing, cutting and / or perforating is done in the right places.

SelbstverstƤndlich ist es ebenso mƶglich, dass die Markierungen M auf der abziehbaren Folie F angebracht oder eingearbeitet sind. Es ist auch mƶglich, dass die Markierungen M z.B. aus magnetischem Material sind, so dass als Sensor ein Hallsensor verwendet werden kann.Of course, it is also possible for the markings M to be applied or incorporated on the removable film F. It is also possible that the markings M e.g. are made of magnetic material so that a Hall sensor can be used as the sensor.

Die Figur 8 zeigt eine Querschnittsdarstellung durch ein erfindungsgemƤƟes Band 1, welches eine bedruckbare Schicht 9 aufweist, an deren der bedruckbaren Seite 1 abgewandten Seite die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 angeordnet ist. Die Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 ist von der Folie F abgedeckt, so dass das Band 1 nicht ungewollt an einem Gegenstand mit seiner Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 anhaften bzw. kleben kann. Damit die Folie F leichter von der Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 des Bandes 1 abgezogen werden kann, erstreckt sich die Folie F zumindest mit ihrer einen LƤngsseite Fsl und/oder Fsr Ć¼ber die LƤngsseite 9s der bedruckbaren Schicht 9.The Figure 8 shows a cross-sectional view through a tape 1 according to the invention, which has a printable layer 9, on the side facing away from the printable side 1, the adhesive or adhesive layer 2 is arranged. The adhesive or adhesive layer 2 is covered by the film F, so that the tape 1 cannot inadvertently adhere or stick to an object with its adhesive or adhesive layer 2. So that the film F can be removed more easily from the adhesive or adhesive layer 2 of the tape 1, the film F extends at least with its one long side F sl and / or F sr over the long side 9s of the printable layer 9.

Alternativ zur in Figur 8 dargestellten AusfĆ¼hrungsform kann die Haft- bzw. Klebeschicht des Bandes 1, wie in den Figuren 9a bis 9c dargestellt, mittels zweier FolienbƤndern F1 und F2 bedeckt sein. Dabei kƶnnen die beiden FolienbƤnder F1 und F2 mit ihren zueinander zugewandten LƤngsseiten F1s und F2s aneinandergrenzen oder, wie in den Figuren 9a bis 9c dargestellt, durch einen Spalt Sp zueinander beabstandet sein. Die Breite des sich in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L erstreckenden Spaltes Sp kann beliebig klein gewƤhlt werden. Es ist z.B. mƶglich, zunƤchst eine einzige sich Ć¼ber die gesamte Breite der bedruckbaren Schicht erstreckende Folie auf die Haft- bzw. Klebeschicht 2 an- bzw. aufzubringen, um dann anschlieƟend mittels eines Messers oder einer anderen Trenneinrichtung die Folie in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L des Bandes 1 zu teilen. SelbstverstƤndlich ist es mƶglich, auch mehr als zwei parallel zueinander angeordnete FolienbƤnder vorzusehen. Wie in Figur 9c dargestellt, kann durch Aufbringen von Biege- bzw. KnickkrƤften BK das Band gebogen werden, wodurch sich mindestens eine LƤngsseite F1s eines Folienbandes F1 von der Unterseite 2u der Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 zumindest bereichsweise lƶst, damit sich diese Folie leicht von der bedruckbaren Schicht 9 bzw. deren Haft- bzw. Klebeschicht 2 abziehen lƤsst.As an alternative to in Figure 8 illustrated embodiment, the adhesive or adhesive layer of the tape 1, as in the Figures 9a to 9c shown, be covered by means of two foil strips F 1 and F 2 . The two film strips F 1 and F 2 can adjoin each other with their mutually facing longitudinal sides F 1s and F 2s or, as in FIGS Figures 9a to 9c shown to be spaced apart by a gap Sp. The width of the gap Sp extending in the longitudinal direction L can be chosen to be as small as desired. For example, it is possible first to apply or apply a single film, which extends over the entire width of the printable layer, to the adhesive or adhesive layer 2, in order to then subsequently use a knife or another separating device to film the film in the longitudinal direction L of the tape 1 to share. Of course, it is also possible to provide more than two film strips arranged parallel to one another. As in Figure 9c shown, the tape can be bent by applying bending or kinking forces BK, whereby at least one long side F 1s of a film tape F 1 extends from the underside 2u of the adhesive or adhesive layer 2 at least in some areas dissolves so that this film can be easily removed from the printable layer 9 or its adhesive layer 2.

Die Figur 10 zeigt eine Querschnittsdarstellung durch eine alternative AusfĆ¼hrungsform, bei der sich die beiden FolienbƤnder F1 und F2 mit ihren LƤngsseiten F1s und F2s Ć¼berlappen, wobei die LƤngsseite F2s des Folienbandes F2 an der Klebe- bzw. Haftschicht 2 klebt bzw. haftet und die LƤngsseite F1s des Folienbandes F1 auf der LƤngsseite F2s aufliegt und diese Ć¼berlappt, ohne dabei an dieser zu haften oder zu kleben. Die LƤngsseite F1s des Folienbandes F1 kann leicht gegriffen werden, wodurch das Folienband F1 leicht abzuziehen ist. Das Folienband F2 kann anschlieƟend durch Knicken bzw. Biegen, wie es in Figur 9c dargestellt ist, von der Haft- bzw. Klebeschicht 2 abgelƶst werden.The Figure 10 shows a cross-sectional view through an alternative embodiment in which the two foil bands F 1 and F 2 with their longitudinal sides F 1s and F 2s overlap, wherein the longitudinal side F 2s of the film strip F 2 adhered to the adhesive or adhesive layer 2 and is liable and the long side F 1s of the film strip F 1 rests on the long side F 2s and overlaps it without adhering to or sticking to it. The long side F 1s of the film strip F 1 can be easily gripped, as a result of which the film strip F 1 is easy to pull off. The film strip F 2 can then by bending or bending, as in Figure 9c is shown, are detached from the adhesive or adhesive layer 2.

Wie bereits ausgefĆ¼hrt, erstreckt sich die bedruckbare Schicht 9 in LƤngserstreckungsrichtung L des Bandes 1 bzw. Blattes 1' durchgehend, so dass das Band 1 bzw. Blatt 1' Ć¼ber seine gesamte LƤnge kontinuierlich bedruckbar ist. Gleiches gilt fĆ¼r die Folie F bzw. die in den Figuren 8 bis 10 dargestellten FolienbƤnder F1 und F2.As already stated, the printable layer 9 extends continuously in the longitudinal direction L of the tape 1 or sheet 1 ', so that the tape 1 or sheet 1' can be printed continuously over its entire length. The same applies to the film F or those in the Figures 8 to 10 illustrated film strips F 1 and F 2 .

Die bedruckbare Schicht 9 kann selbstverstƤndlich mehrlagig ausgebildet sein und auch eine TrƤgerfolie aufweisen, an der an der zu bedruckenden Seite 1 die Haft- bzw. Klebeschicht 2 angeordnet ist.The printable layer 9 can, of course, be constructed in multiple layers and also have a carrier film on which the adhesive or adhesive layer 2 is arranged on the side 1 to be printed.
