Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a photograph album which can prepare directly a photograph album from a photograph print and to provide the photograph album prepared by it. <P>SOLUTION: The photograph album is prepared by linearly successively arranging and sticking photograph prints (3) on one face of a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape (1), continuously overcoating the photograph faces of the photograph prints with a transparent resin film (4) to prepare a photograph web (5), cutting the photograph web (5) by a pair of adjoining photograph prints, and making each pair of the photograph prints keep sides back to back to stick them together with the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

  The present invention relates to a photo album that can display a surface, which is an image surface of a photo, on both sides of each page, and a method for manufacturing the photo album.

  A typical photo album is a so-called free album, in which a photo is fixed with a transparent resin film that is detachably attached to the album mount using a weak adhesive paste applied to the album mount. There is a simple pocket album that puts photos in a bag made of transparent resin film. These are for customers to organize their own photographic prints (photographic photographic paper). On the other hand, albums that are distributed to a large number of students, students, or participants of various celebrations are made by album companies. In general, this is usually done by laminating a double-sided printed product that has been gravure-printed or digitally printed on a pair of adjacent mounts, overcoated with a transparent resin film, and folded in half. Composed. In such a photo album, the printed matter on the surface of the mount is folded in two, so that the folds and swells are created in that part, and it is unsightly when opening both sides, and the back part of the album when the album is closed However, there is a problem that it tends to be somewhat thicker than the other parts and is not preferable for bookbinding.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing a photo album that can eliminate such drawbacks and that can directly create a photo album from a photo print without using a mount, and a photo album made thereby. .

  According to the present invention, a photographic web is formed by adhering a photographic print on one side of a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape in a line, and continuously overcoating the photographic surface of the photographic print with a transparent resin film. There is provided a method for producing a photo album comprising cutting a pair of photo prints and then sticking one side of each pair of photo prints back to back with a double-sided adhesive tape.

  The present invention also provides a photo album made by the above manufacturing method of the present invention. That is, a pair of photographic prints has a double-sided adhesive tape on the back, the photographic surface of the photographic print is overcoated with a transparent resin film, one side of each pair of photographic prints is bonded back to back with a double-sided adhesive tape, A photo album with a two-fold hinge for opening a transparent resin film is provided.

  According to the present invention, a photo album exists as a single photo print corresponding to each page of the album, and is configured to be pasted back-to-back with the photo print constituting the adjacent page. It can always be viewed in a spread state. Further, since the transparent resin film covering the photographic surface constitutes a two-fold hinge for double spread, no creases or bulges occur at that portion.

  Referring to the attached drawings, in FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a double-sided adhesive tape whose adhesive surface is protected by a release paper 2, and a photographic print (photographic printing paper) 3 is linearly formed on the exposed adhesive surface. Paste them side by side. The size of the photo print is not limited, but there is a photo print corresponding to each page of the album. Next, the photographic surface of the photographic print 3 is continuously overcoated with a transparent resin film 4 such as polyethylene to form a photographic web 5. Next, the photographic web 5 is cut into a pair of adjacent photographic prints 3 for 3 minutes. Subsequently, the release paper 2 is peeled off to expose the adhesive surface of the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 1, and one side of each pair of photographic prints 3 and 3 is back-to-back and bonded together by the double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 1 (see FIG. 2). . In the photographic album thus produced, the adjacent photographic prints are spelled with a transparent resin film bonded to the photographic surface, and the film is an integral hinge 6 for page turning or spread. Function as.

  The production of the photographic web of the present invention comprises at least means for feeding out a double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, means for sending out photographic prints one by one onto the pressure-sensitive adhesive surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape, means for attaching a photographic print to the pressure-sensitive adhesive surface, and It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that it is performed by a manufacturing apparatus that includes means for unwinding and laminating a resin film onto the photographic surface of a photographic print affixed to an adhesive tape. Cutting a pair of photographic prints of a photographic web, removing the release paper from the double-sided adhesive tape after cutting, and laminating the photographic prints back to back are generally performed in a manual process.

  Since the photo album according to the present invention is a product made by the above manufacturing method, it has the configuration shown in FIG. That is, a pair of photographic prints 3 and 3 has a double-sided adhesive tape 1 on the back, and the photographic surface of the photographic print is overcoated with a transparent resin film 4 so that one of each pair of photographic prints is back-to-back. The double-sided pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 1 is bonded together, and a transparent resin film constitutes an integral hinge 6 for spread.

  Since the photo album of the present invention is produced directly from the photographic paper itself, it can be provided quickly and easily according to the customer's request with simple equipment.

It is sectional drawing of the photographic web which comprises the photo album in the process of manufacturing the photo album of this invention. 1 is a side view of a photo album according to the present invention.
