Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reuse a resin member without peeling off a sheet by packaging the sheet of good compatibility with the resin member together with an equipment main body and components thereof. SOLUTION: A sheet 4 is provided with good compatibility with a resin material forming a platen board 3 made of a paper, a seal and the like selected by a user. Unless the sheet is peeled off, it is impossible to reuse a resin material of the plates board 3. The sheet of good compatibility with the resin member forming a copier main body 1, a paper feeder 2 and the platen board 3 is packaged together with the copier main body 1 in the same packaging box. As far as the sheet packaged together is used by an user, the reuse of the resin member is not disturbed. Cuttings are formed on the sheet 4, and the sheet is cut into various sizes at the cuttings so that the sheet sizes can be selected. Characters and pictures of required contents are written by the user on the compatible sheet of the size corresponding to the use, and the sheet can be stuck on the surfaces of the copier main body 1, the paper feeder 2 and the platen board 3.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to office equipment such as copiers, facsimile machines, printers, word processors, personal computers, etc.
The present invention relates to a technology for packing devices to be recycled, such as consumer devices such as televisions and videos.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as a global trend, the idea of recycling from the viewpoint of waste disposal is changing in consideration of global environmental problems. Waste laws are also being enacted.

[0003] From the above viewpoint, it is necessary to recycle the products collected from the user (reuse and reuse of products and parts).
Recycling of relatively large resin parts has been required. In order to reuse resin parts,
The collected products are carried into the collection company's factory, etc., where they are dismantled and sorted. However, decals (sheets) attached to the outer cover of the equipment or the inner cover inside the equipment may interfere with recycling. It is. For this reason, at present, decals (sheets) with good compatibility with resin members are attached,
Even if the decal is not peeled off from the resin member, it can be reused as it is.

[0004] In this specification, a decal (sheet) having good compatibility refers to a decal made of polystyrene (PS) or the like. Further, the term “reuse” refers to a method in which the resin member is once returned to the original raw material form and then re-formed for the same or another use.

[0005]

However, as a problem of reusing in the conventional recycling as described above, the user who bought the product writes the method of making copies and the name of the administrator on paper or a sticker. However, there are many situations in which it is attached to the exterior cover surface of the device. In other words, if paper or a sticker with poor compatibility with the resin material is pasted, it will not be removed because the cost is too high, or the sheet that has been pasted due to technical problems cannot be removed. As a result, it may not be possible to make the resin member reusable.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and has as its object to provide a technique capable of reusing a resin member without peeling a sheet.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a sheet having good compatibility with a resin body constituting an apparatus body or a constituent member of an image forming apparatus or the like is provided. It is characterized by being bundled with at least the device main body and the constituent members.

[0008] According to a second aspect of the present invention, the sheet is cut so that it can be used as a sheet of several sizes.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the sheet is:
It is characterized by having an adhesive layer that can be adhered to a resin member constituting the device main body and the constituent members.

[0010]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of a state in which a sheet is attached to a copying machine. In the figure, 1 is a copying machine main body, 2 is a paper feeding device, 3 is a pressure plate, and a sheet 4 is adhered to the surface of the pressure plate 3. As described above, if the sheet 4 is not compatible with the resin material forming the pressure plate 3 with paper or a seal selected by the user, the resin material of the pressure plate 3 cannot be reused unless the sheet material is peeled off. It is on the street.

Therefore, a sheet having good compatibility with the resin member forming the copying machine main body 1, the sheet feeding device 2, and the pressure plate 3 is enclosed in a packing box for storing the copying machine main body 1 and the like. As long as the user uses the enclosed sheet, there is no obstacle to reuse.

FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an example of the sheet 4. The illustrated sheet 4 has several cuts 5 (so-called perforations), and can be divided into various sizes by the cuts 5, that is, the sheet size can be selected. This allows the user to write necessary characters, pictures, and the like on a compatible sheet of a size suitable for the application, and to attach it to the surface of the copying machine main body 1, the sheet feeding device 2, the pressure plate 3, and the like. . Of course, the size of the sheet
The size may be conceivable in view of the size of the device to be enclosed, for example, A4, B5, or the like, and the cut 5 may be set in various ways.

Although not shown, an adhesive layer, an adhesive layer and the like are provided on the surface of the sheet to be attached to the device, and the sheet is attached to the device without separately preparing means and members for attaching an adhesive tape or the like. In this case, there is no need to consider the compatibility of the member and the resin material of the member that may be adopted by the user.

[0014]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, as described above, a sheet having good compatibility with the resin material of the apparatus main body and the constituent members is included in the packaging of the apparatus such as a copying machine or a television. Therefore, it is possible to have the user stick it on the outer surface of the device, etc., thereby reducing the possibility that the sheet becomes an obstacle to the reuse of the resin material in the recycling of the device body and the components, There is an effect that it is possible to efficiently reuse the resin material.

As described above, the device package according to the second aspect of the present invention can be used as a sheet of several sizes by making a cut in the sheet. There is an effect that a bundled sheet having good compatibility can be used according to the application.

As described above, the equipment package according to the third aspect is a sheet having an adhesive layer that can be adhered to a resin member that forms the equipment body or a constituent member. In addition, it can be attached to equipment without the user preparing any means or members for attachment such as adhesive tape,
As a result, there is an effect that it is not necessary to consider compatibility with a resin material such as a tape for attaching a sheet.
