Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for a medicine bag without a mount, which is suitable for forming a medicine bag on which patient information, medicine information and the like are printed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In hospitals and pharmacies, drug bags with the pharmacy name and address printed on the front side and general cautions printed on the back side are prepared in advance. A method to print out patient information and drug information such as simple drug type and drug classification, patient ID, date of issue, patient name, usage, packaging form, contents, etc., and then put the drug into the patient. Is generally done. recently,
The name of the drug, a photograph, the action of the drug, its usage, notes,
A detailed description of the medicine, which is printed with a color printer and the like, such as the pharmacy name, hospital name, patient ID, and date of issue, is attached to ensure that the patient does not misuse the medicine.
However, in the method of attaching the instruction manual of the medicine to the medicine bag, it was necessary to take out the instruction manual from the bag in order to explain the content of the medicine. In addition, in some cases, there was a risk of mistakes in attaching the instructions to the bag.

On the other hand, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2000-21
As shown in Japanese Patent Publication No. 9246, the description of the medicine is facilitated by displaying information on the patient and the medicine on the surface of the medicine bag, and the medicine is easily confirmed by making the back surface of the medicine bag transparent or translucent. Medicine bags are also considered. Certainly, it is easy to confirm the medicine by using such a medicine bag, but the information necessary for each patient such as information on the patient and medicine is
Printing is collectively done on the surface, and there is a problem that the display area is rather narrower than that of the conventional medicine bag. Therefore, if a detailed explanation is to be displayed, a separate sheet has to be attached as usual.

[0004]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention]
This is because the information necessary for each patient was displayed on the printer only on one side of the medicine bag, and this can be solved by printing on both sides of the medicine bag with the printer. However, a general printer is designed to print on one side, and if you dare to print on both sides, you will print twice, but this takes time and error occurs when printing in large quantities. There was a problem that it was easy.

The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, that is, the present invention prints on an information display portion on the surface of a sheet base material with a printer and sticks it in a bag shape so that it can be printed once. An object of the present invention is to provide a pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for a medicine bag, in which a medicine bag in which patient information and medicine information necessary for an individual patient are displayed on both sides of the bag can be easily obtained.

Further, according to the present invention, since a bag can be easily formed by using an adhesive for bonding, and since no adhesive sheet is provided on the adhesive surface, there is no waste problem associated with the disposal of the adhesive sheet. The purpose is to provide an adhesive sheet.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems] That is, the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bags of the present invention has a substantially rectangular base sheet surface as an information display portion, and the base sheet surface is provided at a predetermined end of the base sheet. A pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for a medicine bag, which has a strip-shaped pressure-sensitive adhesive layer that adheres firmly to each other when stacked and pressure-bonded, but is printed on the information display unit with a printer. After that, by bending in a direction in which the information display portion is exposed, and by adhering the adhesive surfaces of the adhesive layer to each other and press-bonding each other, a medicine bag having an opening portion on one side is formed.

Further, the adhesive layer is formed in a strip shape on both ends of the back surface of the base material sheet.

Further, the information display unit is characterized in that the printer prints information about the medicine to be stored, a bar code and the like together with the individual information of the patient.

[0010]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, an adhesive sheet for medicine bags according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS.
I will explain based on this. However, the following description is merely an example of the present invention, and the technical scope of the invention is not limited by the following description.

FIG. 1 is a plan view of an adhesive sheet 10 for a medicine bag of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along line XX in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a state in which printing is carried out by attaching to a printer. Is a plan view of the front surface of the medicine bag displaying patient information and the like, and FIG. 5 is a plan view of the back surface of the medicine bag displaying medicine information.

First, the structure of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. A pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10 of the present invention includes an information display portion 3 on the surface of a substantially strip-shaped base material sheet 1, and pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b are provided on both end portions in the width direction of the base material sheet 1, respectively. It is provided. Further, a folding line 4 formed by embossing is formed across the back surface of the base material sheet 1 in the center of the base material sheet 1 to facilitate bending of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10. Information display section 3
Information on contents commonly used for the medicine bags of the pharmacy in advance, for example, a box,
The name of the pharmacy, contact information, general notes, etc. are printed by the printing machine. Further, the medicine bag adhesive sheet 10 is connected in the longitudinal direction to form a continuous body, which is wound in a roll shape.

Here, as the material of the base material sheet 1, a paper base material such as coated paper or high-quality paper generally used for medicine bags can be used. Further, thermal paper that develops color by heat can also be used. However, depending on the combination of the pressure-sensitive adhesive of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b and the base sheet 1, the anchoring property of the pressure-sensitive adhesive to the base sheet 1 is poor, and the base sheet 1 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b are easily peeled off. There is. In such a case, one or more anchor coat layers made of a material having an affinity for both may be provided between the base sheet 1 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b.

As the pressure-sensitive adhesive forming the above-mentioned pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b, a natural rubber latex or a pressure-sensitive adhesive containing a natural rubber latex and an alkyl acrylate copolymer emulsion is suitable. Generally, the larger the blending ratio of the natural rubber latex is, the weaker the adhesive force to the base material sheet 1 is, which is preferable, but there is a problem in that a large force is required to bond the pressure-sensitive adhesives. On the other hand, when the amount of the alkyl acrylate copolymer emulsion is large, the adhesive strength to the base sheet 1 becomes strong, and the transportation trouble is likely to occur, and the workability is deteriorated because it is stuck to the fingers during the work. However, it is preferable to appropriately change the composition in consideration of these factors depending on the application. The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b is preferably 3 μm to 30 μm, more preferably 5 μm.
m to 15 μm. If the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b are thin, the adhesive strength between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b is insufficient, and if the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b are too thick, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b may be wound in a roll shape and stored. There is a problem that sticking to the base material sheet 1 is likely to occur during the overlapping and storage.
The adhesive force between the base sheet 1 and the adhesive layers 2a and 2b is preferably 1 N / 25 mm or less, more preferably 0.5 N / so that these adhesive sheets 10 for medicine bags can be easily fed out during printing. It is 25 mm or less. Also, the medicine bag 30
After the formation, the adhesive force between the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b is adjusted so that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b bonded together are not easily peeled off.
Preferably 5N / 25mm or more, more preferably 10N
/ 25 mm or more.

Next, a method of using the adhesive bag sheet 10 will be described. As the printer 20 used for printing the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bag, a thermal transfer printer, a thermal printing printer, a sublimation printer, an inkjet printer, an electrophotographic printer, or the like can be used, but color printing is particularly possible. A printer is more preferable because it is easy to identify a photograph or the like of the medicine. Here, a case of printing with a thermal transfer printer will be described as an example. First, the continuous body of the adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bags formed in a roll shape is mounted on the supply shaft 11 of the printer 20 shown in FIG. Then, the tip of the continuous body of the adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10 is fed out, and while the guide rolls 12 support the adhesive surfaces 2a and 2b of the adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10, they are passed between the platen roll 13 and the thermal transfer ribbon 15, and the cutter blade 16 Lead to the exit through the space. After this, the thermal head 14 is pressed against the platen roll 13 side via the thermal transfer ribbon 15 and the adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bag to set. After the printer 20 is energized, the thermal drive of the platen roll 13 conveys the continuous body of the thermal transfer ribbon 15 and the adhesive bag 10 for medicine bag, and the heat of the thermal head 14 causes the thermal transfer to the information display section 3 of the adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bag. The ink on the ribbon 15 is printed by thermal transfer. Here, in the box frame printed on one side of the information display section 3 divided by the folding line 4, the hospital name,
Patient information such as the date of issue, the person in charge of dispensing, the patient ID, the patient name, the type of medicine, and the bar code are mainly printed, and the name of the medicine and the medicine are printed on the other side divided by the fold line 4. Photographs of drugs, drug types / actions, contents / usages, precautions, etc.
Print upside down with patient information. Here, it is assumed that the barcode and the like include not only the one-dimensional barcode but also the two-dimensional code and the like, in which the patient information, the drug information, etc. can be input, and the past medication history. You may enter information. The continuous body of the adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bags thus printed is separated into individual adhesive sheets 10 for medicine bag by the cutter 16.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bags separated is folded in the direction of the back surface through the folding line 4 in the center, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2b formed in strips on the two end faces facing each other. By overlapping and crimping,
The medicine bag 30 shown in (front surface) and FIG. 5 (rear surface) is completed.
In this way, the name of the hospital on one surface (front surface) of the medicine bag 30,
Patient information such as the date of issue, the person in charge of dispensing, the patient ID, the patient name, the type of drug, and the bar code is mainly displayed. On the other side (back side), the name of the drug, photo of the drug, type of drug -Easily form a medicine bag on which drug information such as action, content, usage, and precautions is displayed. According to the present invention, since the medicine bag and the medicine instruction are integrated, there is no fear of losing the medicine instruction attached to the medicine bag during use as in the conventional case, and the medicine is not lost due to the loss of the instruction. There will be no accident of accidentally taking the wrong medicine, because the contents of the will become unknown.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 2a and 2b provided on the back surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10 of the present invention form a medicine bag 30 by firmly adhering the pressure-sensitive adhesives to each other. Since the conveyance path of 20 has a characteristic that the adhesive force is weak, it is not necessary to temporarily adhere the mount to the adhesive to prevent the adhesion. Therefore, as a matter of course, the problem of waste associated with the disposal of the mount does not occur. Further, since the adhesive does not stick to the back surface of the base material sheet 1 when sticking the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10, the workability in forming the medicine bag 30 by bonding is excellent.

The adhesive sheet 10 for medicine bags of the present invention is
Although it may be continuously formed and wound into a roll as shown in the above embodiment, a plurality of adhesive sheets for medicine bags 10 may be formed in one sheet, or a single leaf. May be. In the case of continuous formation, a timing mark for determining the beginning of printing may be printed on the back surface or the front surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bag 10 as necessary. Further, by forming perforations between the continuously formed pressure-sensitive adhesive sheets 10 for medicine bags, it is possible to separate them without using the cutter 16.

[0019]

As described above, according to the pressure-sensitive adhesive sheet for medicine bags of the present invention, information provided on the front and back sides of the bag by printing on the surface of the base material sheet with a printer and sticking them in a bag shape. It is possible to easily form a medicine bag that displays patient information, medicine information, etc. necessary for each patient on the display unit. Furthermore, since the adhesive of the present invention does not adhere to the base material, but the adhesive layers firmly adhere to each other, a mount is not required, and a waste problem caused by discarding the mount does not occur.
