BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a concealment label and a concealment information holder using the concealment label.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, various concealment information possessors in which concealment information is concealed with concealment labels and concealment labels are known. The conventional concealment label has a concealment layer that does not transmit visible light such as an aluminum foil layer or a solid print layer made of carbon black ink on one side of the label base so that the concealment information is invisible to the human eye. Provided. This concealment label is detachably adhered to a concealment information display portion such as a card displaying concealment information or a delivery slip to constitute a concealment information holder. (For example, refer to Patent Document 1).

[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, according to this conventional concealment label and concealment information possession body, in order to confirm the concealment information displayed on the concealment information possession body, it is necessary to peel off the concealment label. There is an inconvenience that this peeling operation is complicated.
[0005]
The present invention eliminates such a conventional inconvenience and provides a concealment label that can read concealment information mechanically, specifically using an infrared OCR scanner, without peeling the concealment label. An object of the present invention is to provide a concealment information possessor using the concealment label.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve this object, the concealment label according to claim 1 of the present invention is characterized in that a concealing layer is formed by coating an infrared transmissive carbonless color concealing ink on one surface of a light transmissive film. To do. The infrared transmissive carbonless colored concealing ink is an ink formed by mixing a coloring agent that does not contain carbon and has a property of reflecting or absorbing ultraviolet rays and visible rays while transmitting infrared rays. Any color that guarantees a concealment that cannot be achieved.
[0007]
Similarly, in order to achieve the above object, the concealment information carrier according to claim 2 of the present invention is configured to transmit infrared rays on one surface of the light transmissive film on the concealment information display portion of the information possession body displaying the concealment information. A concealing label provided with a concealing layer formed by applying a noncarbon-colored color concealing ink is adhered on the concealing layer side to cover the concealment information so that it is invisible to the human eye from the outside. To do. The infrared transmitting carbonless colored hiding ink may be of the same configuration as the infrared transmitting carbonless colored hiding ink described in relation to the first aspect.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view showing a voting right exercise form which is an information display body displaying concealment information, and FIG. 2 is a schematic plan view showing a state where a concealment label is adhered to the concealment information display part. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line AA of FIG. 2, and FIG. 4 is a graph showing the transmission characteristics of the infrared-transmissive carbonless black ink.
[0009]
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the concealment information holder 1 includes a voting right exercise form 2 and a concealment label 3 which are information display bodies. As shown in FIG. 1, the voting right exercise form 2 is provided with a signature stamping field 5 under the title 4 “2003 Annual Shareholders Meeting Voting Rights Exercise Form”. Below, a concealment information display section 7 occupying almost the lower half of the voting right exercise form 2 is formed by a dividing line 6 made of a dotted line. The concealment information display section 7 includes a shareholder identification field 8 displaying the name and code number of the shareholder who signs in the signature seal field 5, a share number display field 9 indicating the number of shares held, and approval / disapproval for each proposal. A proposal approval / disapproval entry column 10 is provided.
[0010]
On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the concealment label 3 is the same size as the concealment information display unit 7, and is a concealment formed by applying an infrared transmissive carbonless black ink on one surface of the light transmissive resin film 11. The layer 12 is provided, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive 13 having a normal adhesive force is provided on the concealing layer 12 side, and is adhered to the concealment information display portion 7 in which the predetermined items of the voting right exercise form 2 are filled with difficulty in peeling. As can be understood from FIG. 4, the infrared transmissive carbonless black ink transmits infrared rays but reflects or absorbs ultraviolet rays and visible rays. Ink.
[0011]
Although not shown, the concealment label 3 before being attached to the voting right exercise form 2 is configured to cover and protect the adhesive 13 with a release paper, like the conventional general label. Although it is normal, depending on the case, you may comprise so that the adhesive 13 may be apply | coated at the time of adhesion | attachment, without providing the adhesive 13 previously. The pressure-sensitive adhesive 13 also transmits infrared rays without reflecting or absorbing infrared rays.
[0012]
In the voting right exercise form 2 shown in Fig. 1, refer to the notice of shareholder meeting (not shown) and the proposal form that are sent together with this, and enter ○ × in the proposal approval / disapproval entry column 10 according to approval or disapproval. In addition, the concealment label 3 obtained by signing and stamping in the signature / stamping column 5 and separating the release paper (not shown) is adhered to the concealment information display section 7 of the voting right exercise form 2 with the exposed adhesive 13. It is. In this adhesive state, the items described in the concealment information display unit 7 cannot be visually recognized from the outside by the human eye due to the action of the concealment layer 12 made of infrared transmissive carbonless black ink.
[0013]
Since the present embodiment is configured as described above, the company that has received the concealment information carrier 1 in the state of FIGS. 2 and 3 uses the known infrared OCR scanner (not shown) to attach the concealment label 3. By scanning the portion, each item displayed on the concealment information display unit 7 can be detected and read. As can be understood from FIG. 4, scanning with an infrared OCR scanner uses a wavelength of 700 nm or more, preferably 800 to 1000 nm.
[0014]
In the present invention, the above-described concealment information holder 1 can be configured so as to conform to the standard of a government-made postcard, and can also be used as a postcard. Further, the use of the concealment information holder 1 is not limited to the shareholder general meeting voting rights exercise form, and can be applied to a wide range of uses as in the past. Further, the color of the colored concealing ink may be any color as long as it is a color that guarantees concealing properties that cannot be seen through by the human eye, such as dark green or blue.
[0015]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the concealment label according to the first aspect of the present invention, the concealment information concealed by the human eye can be made invisible, and if the infrared OCR scanner is used, the information display displaying the concealment information is performed. While the concealment label is adhered to the body, the concealment information can be detected and read without peeling.
[0016]
Further, according to the concealment information carrier of claim 2 of the present invention, by using an infrared OCR scanner, the concealment label is adhered to the information display body and is not visible to the human eye without being peeled off. Since the hidden concealment information can be detected and read, it is possible to efficiently perform the machine reading operation of the concealment information.
