A price correction label that displays a price reduction price by hiding a barcode printed with price information before the price reduction when the price of the product is reduced is widely used as disclosed in Patent Document 1-2. However, there are those who take off such price correction labels and affix them to other products for abuse.
Japanese Patent No. 3244494 JP 2005-121721 A

An object of the present invention is to provide a price correction label that can be peeled off and cannot be reused once it has been attached to a product.

In the present invention, by cutting the label, it can be used efficiently with the same appearance as a normal label at the first use, but when the label is peeled off, the label is damaged and cannot be reused.

That is, the label of the present invention is a price-correcting label that is used by sticking to a product with an adhesive provided on the back side, and is 1.5-7 mm (preferably 2) toward the inside of the side of the label. One or more incisions having a length of −6 mm) are provided.

The cuts may be provided obliquely inward from the side corners of the label, or may be provided on the side in parallel to the lower side of the label and in a horizontal direction, and a plurality of these are preferably provided.

When the label of the present invention is once attached to a product and then peeled off, the label is easy to tear from the notch provided as described above and cannot be reused. Is preferably provided on the side of the portion where the barcode of the label is printed.

For example, if the barcode is printed at the bottom of the label body, the cut is directed diagonally upward (at an angle of about 30-60 degrees, preferably at an angle of 45 degrees) from the lower edge of the side of the label. In addition, it is preferable to provide both the side and the side at a certain position above the lower side edge of the label (for example, a height of 3-12 mm, preferably 5-10 mm).

Furthermore, in the present invention, a strip-like portion is present at the upper end of the label in a state that can be cut off by a perforation. When the label is used, the strip-like portion is removed and attached to the original price display portion (on the barcode) of the product. , It may be made clearer that the original price has been invalidated and changed to the price on the price correction label. In this case, since the price correction label can be attached at a position away from the original price display portion, it is easy to handle.

In addition, at least one side part below the label protrudes outward from the upper part of the label to widen the display part of the label, and at the same time, the notch is provided in the protruding part, and the label once attached to the product When peeling off, the destruction of the label may be made more reliable.

Even if the price correction label of the present invention peels off a used label due to the presence of a cut on the side and tries to reuse it, the label is easily broken from the cut when the label is peeled off, and the label cannot be reused. In particular, if a notch is provided on the side where the barcode printed on the label exists, the barcode portion is easily damaged when the label is peeled off, which is effective. As a result, at supermarkets and convenience stores, try to purchase as if the price of the product had been corrected by removing the price correction label that was once attached to the product in order to reduce the price of the product and pasting it on another product. Even if there is a person who does, it becomes clear that the label is broken because it is broken, and such a malicious act can be prevented.

Next, the present invention will be described with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.
FIG. 1 illustrates a label of the present invention. Each label is attached to the release sheet with an adhesive, peeled off from the release sheet, and attached to a product with an adhesive present on the back surface.

The label of FIG. 1 (A) is formed with rounded corners, and a cut 1a having a length of 3 mm is provided on both sides below and obliquely upward at an angle of 45 degrees from the bottom of the sides. In addition, a cut 1b is provided in a lateral direction parallel to the lower side 8mm above the lower end of both sides. In addition, a strip-shaped portion 3 is provided at the upper end so that it can be cut off by the perforation 2. The strip-shaped portion 3 is printed with “a bargain price” etc. The main body 4 has a discount rate printed on the upper part 5 and a bar code printed on the lower part 6.

By cutting the strip 3 and pasting it on the original price display part of the product, clarifying that the original price has been corrected, and pasting the label body 4 on the other part of the product, The price is discounted at a discount rate printed on the label, and the price is read by a bar code provided on the lower part 6 of the label body 4.

Once such a label is attached to a product, when the label is peeled off, the label tears from one of the cuts 1a and 1b, and the label cannot be reused. In particular, the barcode portion is severely damaged, making it impossible to read the barcode.

The label in FIG. 1B is provided with a left column 7 on which a discount rate is written and a right column 8 on which a barcode is printed, and six cuts 1c-1h are provided on both sides of the label.

In the label of FIG. 1C, the lower display portion is formed wider than the upper display portion, and cuts 1a and 1b are provided on both lower sides.

In the labels of FIGS. 1B and 1C, the same belt-like portion 3 as in FIG. 1A may be provided. In addition, the label which does not have the strip | belt-shaped part 3 will be affixed on the original price display part so that at least one barcode of the original price display part of goods may be hidden.

It is a top view which illustrates the label of this invention.
