Description

  The present invention relates to an envelope containing a personal information protection sheet that includes a personal information protection sheet and a storage bag in which personal information that has been made unreadable once cannot be restored, and does not inadvertently damage personal information during transportation.

  Conventionally, when discarding postal items with personal information such as address and address, to prevent leakage of personal information from the waste, the portion containing the personal information or the entire postal item must be broken by hand. Or had to be cut with scissors or a shredder. In particular, finely fragmenting by hand (by hand or scissors) to such an extent that personal information cannot be specified is extremely laborious.

  In addition, some mail items have a destination label (a label on which a delivery address and a recipient's name are written) affixed to a bag made of a resin film containing printed matter. In the case of such postal matter, the destination label must be peeled off from the resin film because the destination label cannot be torn into pieces by hand or cut with scissors or a shredder due to separation problems. However, dropping off the destination label can cause a postal accident, so the destination label is generally firmly attached to the resin film. For this reason, it is not easy to peel off the destination label from the bag made of resin film.

As a prior art aimed at solving such a problem, there is a “label displaying personal information” disclosed in Patent Document 1. The invention disclosed in Patent Document 1 is formed with a slit for dividing a display area of personal information into a plurality of parts.
JP 2001-175175 A

In the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, in order to make personal information in an unreadable state, the base material of the label surface layer must be peeled off. The material may be peeled off, and if the base material is not carelessly peeled off, it will be difficult to peel off the base material when making personal information unreadable. That is, since it is difficult to adjust the adhesive strength of the substrate, process management is difficult, and the yield decreases.
In the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1, the information printed on the label remains in the fragment as it is, and the personal information can be restored to a legible state by connecting the fragments.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and a personal information protection sheet in which personal information that has been made indecipherable once cannot be restored and personal information is not inadvertently damaged during transportation. An object is to provide an envelope with an information protection sheet.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides, as a first aspect, an envelope containing a personal information protection sheet comprising a personal information protection sheet and a storage bag for storing the personal information protection sheet. The protective sheet comprises a base material, a release layer formed on at least a part of one surface of the base material, an image receiving layer laminated on the release layer, and a specific individual formed by printing on the image receiving layer. A personal information display sheet showing information related to the personal information protection sheet, and the containing bag has a transparent or translucent position at least corresponding to the personal information display section. It is to provide.

  In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides, as a second aspect, an envelope containing a personal information protection sheet comprising a personal information protection sheet and a storage bag for storing the personal information protection sheet, The personal information protection sheet includes a base material, a release layer formed on at least a part of one surface of the base material, and a personal information display unit that displays information related to a specific individual formed by printing on the release layer The container bag provides an envelope with a personal information protection sheet, wherein at least a position corresponding to the personal information display unit is formed to be transparent or translucent.

  In the 1st aspect or 2nd aspect of this invention, it is preferable that a storage bag has a transparent or semi-transparent window in the position corresponding to a personal information display part.

In the present invention, since the personal information protection sheet is stored in the storage bag, the personal information displayed on the personal information protection sheet is not inadvertently damaged.
Accordingly, the adhesive strength between the release layer and the image receiving layer or the release layer and the information display portion does not have to be adjusted so strictly, so that the productivity of the personal information protection sheet is improved.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide an envelope containing a personal information protection sheet comprising a personal information protection sheet in which personal information once in an unreadable state cannot be restored and a storage bag.

First, the outline of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
The personal information protection sheet applied to the present invention is an energy ray-curable resin layer that is surface-inactive as a release layer 20 on one surface of a base material 10 (paper, postcard, mount, etc.) for displaying personal information. A resin layer having a low cohesive force is sequentially laminated as the image receiving layer 30. The image receiving layer 30 has low adhesion to the release layer 20, and is peeled off from the interface with the release layer 20 when a force substantially parallel to the substrate is locally applied (rubbed with a coin or a nail). In the personal information protection sheet in which the personal information is displayed on the surface of the image receiving layer 30 by the information display unit 40 formed by a known printing method (formation with a printer using ink, toner, or formation by printing or handwriting with a pencil). By rubbing the image receiving layer 30 with coins, nails or the like, the personal information displayed on the surface of the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled off together. This prevents leakage of personal information from discarded mail.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 1B, only the surface-inactive energy ray curable resin layer may be formed as the release layer 20 on one surface of the substrate 10. In this case, the personal information (information display unit 40) formed on the release layer 20 can be released by rubbing the release layer 20 with coins or nails.

  In the following embodiments, a configuration including the image receiving layer 30 is taken as an example, but the same effect can be obtained even in a configuration without the image receiving layer 30.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a personal information protection sheet of an envelope with a personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment.
As shown in FIG. 1 (a), the personal information protection sheet is composed of a base material 10, a release layer 20, and an image receiving layer 30 to be a label mount. The layers 30 are stacked in this order. On the image receiving layer 30, personal information is described by the information display unit 40. On the base material 10, the peeling layer 20 and the image receiving layer 30 are laminated by a technique such as offset printing, screen printing, gravure printing, flexographic printing, etc., but if these layers do not need to be formed to be particularly thick, the cost is reduced. From the side, offset printing and flexographic printing are preferable.

[Base material]
The base material 10 can be appropriately selected from known materials. For example, paper (quality paper, coated paper, kraft paper, etc.), polyester film (polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene terephthalate / isophthalate copolymer, etc.), polyolefin film (polyethylene, polypropylene, polymethylpentene, etc.), plastic film (polychlorinated) Vinyl film, ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer film, polycarbonate film, polyamide film, etc.) and synthetic paper made of polyolefin.

[Peeling layer]
The release layer 20 uses an ultraviolet curable resin such as urethane acrylate or epoxy acrylate, or an electron beam curable resin. Other materials include solvent-type thermoplastic resins (vinyl chloride / vinyl acetate copolymer resins, acrylate / styrene copolymer resins, nitrocellulose, maleic acid resins, etc.), water-soluble resins (polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, etc.). Pyropidone etc.), various acrylic copolymer resins, polyurethanes, etc. can be used alone, or a release agent such as silicon resin can be added to these.

  The release layer 20 is formed by curing a mixture comprising a monomer, a synthetic resin, a reaction initiator, and a release agent. The monomer serves as a reactive diluent and serves to adjust the viscosity of the mixture. The synthetic resin is a main component of the resin component constituting the release layer 20. The initiator promotes the curing (drying) reaction of the mixture. The release agent gives the release layer 20 release properties.

[Image receiving layer]
The image receiving layer 30 uses an ultraviolet curable resin or the like. The image receiving layer 30 is formed by curing a mixture of a pigment, a synthetic resin, a reaction initiator, and a release agent. Note that the image receiving layer 30 may or may not contain a pigment. If not, the content of other composition materials increases.
The pigment has properties as an extender pigment and a color pigment. The property as an extender is to give the binder material thixotropy (characteristic that the viscosity decreases when stress is applied), and the property as a colored pigment is to color the binder material. An example of the color pigment is titanium white. The monomer is used as a reactive diluent and serves to adjust the viscosity. Synthetic resins are the main component of the resin component constituting the image receiving layer. The reaction initiator is for accelerating the curing (drying) reaction of the mixture, and the release agent is for imparting release characteristics to the image receiving layer 30.

  The personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment can be printed regardless of the thickness of the image receiving layer 30. Further, the image receiving layer 30 cannot be peeled from the release layer 20 unless the image receiving layer 30 has a certain thickness. A thicker image receiving layer 30 (1 μm or more) has better friction resistance, but even when the image receiving layer 30 is thin (0.5 μm or less), the friction resistance is improved due to the influence of the substrate 10.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a state in which the image receiving layer 30 is scraped off from the release layer 20.
As shown in FIG. 2, the image receiving layer 30 is formed on the image receiving layer 30 by scraping the image receiving layer 30 with coins, nails or the like (in other words, by rubbing the image receiving layer 30 while applying a pressure of a predetermined value or more). The information display unit 40 is also peeled off and removed from the peeling layer 20 at the same time. The adhesion between the image receiving layer 30 and the release layer 20 can be adjusted by the composition of the mixture that forms the respective bases of the release layer 20 and the image receiving layer 30.

  Usually, as shown in FIG. 3A, personal information such as an address and a name is printed only on a part of the personal information protection sheet. Therefore, in the case of a configuration including the image receiving layer 30, the image receiving layer 30 is scraped off. The location is only the address and name as shown in FIG. Unlike conventional so-called “scratch cards”, it is not necessary to scrape all of the image receiving layer 30, so that shavings can be minimized.

Note that the personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment makes it difficult for the user to recognize that the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled from the release layer 20 only by the appearance. Therefore, as shown in FIG. In order to notify the user that the release layer 20 can be peeled off, it is preferable to display it as an attention display unit 50 at an arbitrary position on the personal information protection sheet. However, if the display position is on the release layer 20, the portion may be peeled off. Therefore, the fact that the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled from the release layer 20 means that the release layer 20 is not formed. It is preferable to display in the area. If the release layer 20 or the image receiving layer 30 is formed by printing colored ink, it is possible to reduce the man-hour that the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled from the release layer 20 if they are simultaneously formed by printing when forming them. Can be displayed without increasing. The display format of the alert display unit 50 is not limited as long as it allows the user to recognize that the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled off, such as a character or a pattern (for example, an image figure cut with a coin).
Further, an indication that the image receiving layer 30 can be peeled from the peeling layer 20 may be provided on the envelope side in which the personal information protection sheet is accommodated.

  In the personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment formed as described above, even if the image receiving layer 30 is rubbed with a small surface pressure (for example, rubbed with a finger belly or an eraser), the rubbed part is the release layer 20. Is not peeled off, but when rubbed with a large surface pressure (for example, rubbed with a coin or a nail), the rubbed portion peels off from the release layer 20.

  Even when an adhesive tape is attached to the image receiving layer 30, the force does not concentrate locally on the image receiving layer 30 when the adhesive tape is peeled off, so the image receiving layer 30 does not peel off. The conventional so-called “scratch card” takes into account that the concealing layer (silver layer) is peeled off when the adhesive tape is applied to the surface and peeled off, the image receiving layer 30 and the peeling layer 20 in the personal information protection sheet according to this embodiment. Can be said to be higher than the concealing layer of the conventional scratch card.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the envelope with window 100 corresponds to the information display unit 40 formed on the image receiving layer 30 (the peeling layer 20 in the case of a configuration without this) of the personal information protection sheet to be enclosed. A window 110 is formed as described above. The window 110 has an opening formed in the envelope closed with a transparent film or translucent paper, and the information display unit 40 of the personal information protection sheet in the envelope holds the envelope 100 through the window 110. It is visible without opening. In addition, the envelope 100 with a window should just be visible at least the information display part 40 formed in the image receiving layer 30 (or peeling layer 20) in the unopened state, and the whole envelope is formed with transparent plastic etc. Needless to say.

When a destination (address or address) is displayed on the personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment by the information display unit 40 and sealed in an envelope 100 to be a mail, the image receiving layer 30 is rubbed during transportation and personal information is rubbed. A mail accident will not occur due to illegibility.
In addition, since it is not necessary to consider the friction resistance of the image receiving layer 30 during transportation, it is easy to manage the adhesive strength between the image receiving layer 30 and the release layer 20. For this reason, a personal information protection sheet can be manufactured easily and productivity is also improved.

As described above, the personal information protection sheet according to the present embodiment peels and removes the image receiving layer 30 from the release layer 20 by rubbing the image receiving layer 30 while applying a pressure of a predetermined value or more. When personal information is displayed by the information display unit 40, it is peeled off and removed at the same time. Therefore, when the personal information protection sheet on which the personal information is displayed is discarded, the personal information can be made unreadable by a simple operation, and leakage of the personal information from the waste can be prevented. In addition, since it is impossible to restore personal information from the image receiving layer 30 scraped from the release layer 20, there is no risk of personal information leaking.
Therefore, the postal matter to which the envelope with a window enclosing this is applied has no fear that personal information is inadvertently damaged during transportation, and the personal information can be easily and reliably unreadable after delivery.

In addition, the said embodiment is an example of suitable implementation of this invention, and this invention is not limited to this. For example, in the above embodiment, the personal information protection sheet in which personal information is displayed on the image receiving layer 30 by the information display unit 40 is taken as an example, but the information displayed by the information display unit 40 is limited to personal information. It may represent any character, sentence, or design. In the case of a configuration including an image receiving layer, the release layer and the image receiving layer are not necessarily formed with the same size (area). That is, the image receiving layer may be laminated only on a part of the peeling layer, or a part of the image receiving layer may protrude from a region where the peeling layer is not formed.
As described above, the present invention can be variously modified.

It is the figure which showed the structure of the personal information protection sheet concerning 1st Embodiment which implemented this invention suitably. It is the figure which showed a mode that the image receiving layer was peeled and removed. (A) is the figure which showed the personal information protection sheet on which personal information was printed. (B) is the figure which showed the state which peeled and removed personal information. It is a figure which shows the state which provided the display which shows that an image receiving layer is peelable in the personal information protection sheet. It is a figure which shows the shape of an envelope with a window. FIG.
