Description

  The present invention relates to an information communication body in which a plurality of leaf pieces on which information is displayed are folded or stacked in a peelable manner.

  Recently, a postcard having a multi-layer structure called a concealment postcard has been frequently used. Even though this is a single postcard, a plurality of leaf pieces on which information is displayed are laminated in a peelable manner, so that the recipient can open and unfold the conventional single leaf postcard from the peeled portion. A larger amount of information can be visually recognized.

  In the concealment postcard, for example, if a postcard double size paper is folded so as to be peelable, it can be developed on a flat surface after opening, so that information of double the normal size postcard can be described by simple calculation. it can. And since this thing cannot be easily reattached after peeling, secrecy can also be expected. That is, it is an excellent one that can post more information with a postcard fee in the same manner as a sealed letter.

  However, the structure can be opened originally, so there is no doubt that it will be opened due to unforeseen accidents while it is being mailed, or that other people will open it unintentionally and unintentionally. Recently, however, privacy protection has become popular, and there is a possibility that it may lead to compensation problems, so even accidents caused by force majeure are becoming overlooked.

As an improvement measure, the opening opening part is adhered to Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 1-16691 so that it cannot be peeled off, and is opened after being cut off using a perforation formed in advance for cutting off or using a scissors or a cutter. Are disclosed.
In this product, a conventionally known non-peeling technique such as a glue can be appropriately employed for the paste margin portion that is sealed so that it cannot be peeled off. However, the manufacturing process and processing conditions are very complicated because the media forming method and physical properties of the paste margin part to which the paste is applied and the part that is releasably adhered (hereinafter referred to as pseudo-adhesion) are completely different. Become.
JP-A-1-16691

  According to the present invention, the drawbacks of the prior art can be solved, the configuration of the information communication body can be simplified, and the processing method can be simplified. That is, the present invention provides an epoch-making information communication body capable of mass-producing an information communication body having reliable concealment property easily at low cost and a manufacturing method thereof.

  In order to achieve the above object, the information communication body having a cut-off edge of the present invention is an information communication body in which information is displayed and a plurality of leaf pieces connected via a folding line are folded and integrated in a peelable manner. The part where the pseudo-adhesive medium provided on the surface where the pseudo-adhesion between the opposing leaf pieces is not formed is formed, and the non-peeling part made of toner is formed on the glue margin part provided on the edge side where the peeling and unfolding starts It is characterized by.

  The toner is used for on-demand printing or the like, and can be broadly divided into liquid toner and powder toner. Among them, powder toner can be preferably used. The powder toner can be divided into oil toner and oilless toner, but any type can be used.

  As the toner, black toner which is usually used for printing personal information (address name, money amount, etc.) can be suitably used, but other colors may also be used. The toner pattern formed on the non-peeling portion is not particularly limited, and may be a simple strip, a plurality of dots (halftone dots), a polygon, or the like, and may be an illustration, a graphic, or a character depending on circumstances. Moreover, you may form the extension of the design of a pseudo adhesion plan surface in a non-peeling part.

In order to achieve the above object, the method of manufacturing an information communication body having a cut-off edge according to the present invention is an information that displays information and is integrated so as to be peelable by folding a plurality of leaf pieces connected via a folding line. A method of manufacturing a communication body, wherein a plurality of preprinted leaf pieces are connected in a horizontal direction via folding lines and variable information is provided on at least one surface of a long sheet connected in the vertical direction. The process of forming a non-peeling portion provided on the edge side that starts being peeled and unfolded at the same time with toner, the step of folding a long sheet on which variable information and non-peeling part are formed, and the opposite of the folded long sheet Inserting a pseudo-adhesive sheet into the pseudo-adhesive planned surface, cutting a long sheet with the pseudo-adhesive sheet inserted into an information communication body of a predetermined size, and passing the information cut into a predetermined size. It is characterized in that it consists of the body to releasably integrated pseudo adhesion scheduled surface by heating and pressurizing treatment and adhering the non peeled not peeled portion simultaneously.
In the above process, the step of cutting the long sheet into which the pseudo-adhesive sheet is inserted into an information communication body of a prescribed size and the information communication body are integrated so as to be peeled off by the heating / pressurizing process. The step of adhering the non-peeled portion so as not to be peeled may be replaced.

  The manufacturing method of the information communication body which has the cut-off edge which concerns on this invention can respond to the information communication body which uses various pseudo adhesion | attachment media. For example, the above-described manufacturing method includes, for example, by performing pseudo-adhesion on a long sheet that has been printed and printed in advance and sandwiching a pseudo-adhesive sheet having a four-layer structure in which a heat-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on both outer sides, and applying pressure and heat treatment. It can be applied to an information communication body that is integrated so as to be peelable. In the industry, such pseudo-adhesive means is referred to as a “sandwich film method”.

  Furthermore, in order to achieve the above object, the method for manufacturing an information communication body having a cut-off edge according to the present invention integrates a plurality of leaf pieces that display information and are connected via a fold line so that they can be peeled off. A method of manufacturing an information communication body, the step of forming a pseudo-adhesive medium on a pseudo-adhesion planned surface of a cut sheet on which at least one information communication body paper is printed, variable to the cut sheet on which the pseudo-adhesive medium is formed The process of forming the non-peeling part provided on the edge side where the information is applied with the toner and starting the peeling and unfolding at the same time with the toner, and cutting the cut sheet on which the variable information and the non-peeling part are formed into a sheet for an information communication body of a predetermined size A process for folding a sheet for an information communication body cut to a specified size, a surface to be pseudo-bonded by heating / pressurizing the folded sheet for an information communication body When integrated was peelable is characterized by comprising the step of adhering so as not to peel the non-peeled portion simultaneously.

  In the manufacturing method described above, a step of cutting the cut sheet into a sheet for an information communication body of a specified size, and applying a variable information to the cut sheet with the toner, and simultaneously forming a non-peeling portion provided on the edge side where the separation and development is started with the toner. The order of the steps to be performed may be changed as appropriate.

  In the above manufacturing method, pseudo-adhesive UV varnish or emulsion type glue is applied to the pseudo-adhesive surface of the printed paper. After the pseudo-adhesive medium is applied, the opposing faces are heated and pressed. It can apply to the information communication body integrated so that peeling is possible. In the industry, such a pseudo-adhesive means is called “post glue” or “varnishing”.

The above manufacturing method can also be applied to a method in which a pseudo-adhesive film sheet is laminated on a pseudo-adhesive planned surface of a printed sheet. This is one in which the opposing surfaces are folded and integrated after the film sheet is laminated so as to be peelable, and is referred to in the industry as a “full-face film type”.
By employing such a manufacturing method, even an amateur can manufacture a large amount of information communication bodies in a simple process and in a short time. "

  The information communication body having the cut-off edge of the present invention is not easily opened unless a person other than the recipient intentionally peels and unfolds maliciously. Further, according to the method for manufacturing an information communication body having a cut-off edge according to the present invention, since the manufacture is made with only two kinds of materials, that is, a sheet and a pseudo-adhesive medium, the physical properties of the cut-off edge such as an adhesive and a pressure-sensitive adhesive are newly different. Compared with the case of manufacturing by incorporating another material, the product cost is reduced and the manufacturing process can be simplified, so that the manufacturing cost is inevitably reduced.

1A and 1B are plan views of the front and back surfaces of a double-folded postcard paper that is a basic information communication body. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the pseudo adhesive sheet. 3A and 3B are a plan view and a cross-sectional view taken along the line XX of the completed folded postcard. 4 (A) and 4 (B) are cross-sectional views taken along the line XX showing the state at the time of opening.
1A and 1B are a front view and a back view of a folded paper for postcards that is a basic form of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 4A, the first leaf piece 1 and the second leaf piece 2 of postcard size are arranged in a horizontal direction (vertical direction through a folding line 3 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like). However, a postage stamp field 4 and a postal code field 5 are written on the surface of the first leaf piece 1. Further, the address name 6 of the recipient is described by, for example, a double-sided printer, but there is no special restriction on the printing time. In addition, you may affix a label or the like with your name and address. Further, general information 7 such as advertisements is displayed on the surface of the second leaf piece 2.

  Further, the back surfaces of the back surfaces of the first leaf piece 1 and the second leaf piece 2 are folded from the fold line 3 to be concealed. As shown in FIG. It is described by a double-sided printer or the like. All of the secret information 8 does not have to be personal information, and it does not matter whether general information is mixed or general information that does not require secrecy. Further, a sealing toner T is formed outside the confidential information 8 when the confidential information 8 is written.

  FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the pseudo adhesive sheet G used in this embodiment. This pseudo adhesive sheet G is coated with a resin 11 made of a known thermoplastic resin or thermosetting resin having different physical properties on one surface of a relatively strong support 10 such as polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, acetate, polycarbonate or the like. Laminate so as to be peelable by work or melt extrusion. A known heat-sensitive adhesive layer 12 made of EVA, EAA, EEA, ionomer, polyamide or the like is formed on both outer sides.

  However, in the present invention, there is no particular restriction on the configuration of the pseudo adhesive sheet. For example, two layers are sufficient if they are pseudo-bonded to each other and thermally bonded to the paper material on the other side. In FIG. 2, if a material having both functions of the resin 11 and the heat-sensitive adhesive layer 12 is used, the number of layers becomes three. Further, in FIG. 2, a resin 11 may be newly interposed between the support 10 and the heat-sensitive adhesive layer 12 outside the support 10 to form a five-layer structure. In the following drawings, in order to avoid complexity, it is assumed that the resin 11 and the heat-sensitive adhesive layer 12 and the support 10 and the heat-sensitive adhesive layer 12 are one layer each, and a pseudo-adhesive structure with a total of two layers. A sheet G is expressed.

  The two-fold postcard paper S1 is folded via the pseudo adhesive sheet G so that the back side of each leaf piece faces the folding line 3. At that time, as shown in FIG. 3, the sealing toner T formed on the opening edge side of the back surface of each leaf piece is disposed so as to face each other. The sealing toner T forms an interface for convenience in the drawing, but since it is actually heated and pressurized, it is melted and integrated so that it cannot be peeled off. That is, the half-folded postcard is sealed with the sealing toner T so that it cannot be opened.

  In order to peel and develop the postcard, as shown in FIG. 3A, for example, the opening side edge is cut off with a scissors, a cutter or the like along the opening cutting line M displayed along the opening edge. As indicated by a two-dot chain line P in FIG. 5B, the cut-off line M is displayed along a space generated between the pseudo adhesive sheet G and the sealing toner T disposed at a position apart from the pseudo adhesive sheet G. Therefore, the half-folded postcard cut off along the cut-off line M forms a non-adhesive zone H that is the beginning of opening by completely cutting off the sealing toner T as shown in FIG. 4A. . Then, as shown in FIG. 5B, the recipient can easily grasp the both leaf end portions of the non-adhesive area, which is the beginning of peeling, formed at the opening portion of the first leaf piece 1 and the second leaf piece 2 with a finger. It can be peeled and deployed.

Next, the tri-fold postcard will be described.
FIGS. 5A and 5B are plan views of the front and back surfaces of a tri-fold (Z-fold) postcard paper. 6A and 6B are a plan view and a cross-sectional view along line YY of the completed tri-fold postcard.
As shown in FIGS. 5 (A) and 5 (B), the tri-fold postcard sheet of the present embodiment is S2, the first leaf piece 21, the second leaf piece 22, and the third leaf piece 23 are folded lines 24, 25 (not necessarily displayed). It may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like) and connected in the horizontal direction (the vertical direction may be used). As shown in FIG. 2A, a postage stamp field 26 and a postal code field 27 are described on the surface of the first leaf piece 21. Further, the address name 28 of the recipient is described by a printer or the like, but there is no special limitation on the description time, and a label or the like indicating the address name may be attached. Further, the surfaces of the second leaf piece 22 and the third leaf piece 23 are folded and concealed, but personal confidential information 29 of the recipient is described by a printer or the like. All of the secret information 29 does not have to be personal information, and even if general information is mixed or general information that does not require secrecy may be used. Further, a sealing toner T is formed outside the confidential information 29 at the same time when the confidential information 29 is written.

  Moreover, as shown in FIG. 5B, the first leaf piece 21, the second leaf piece 22, and the third leaf piece 23 are back folded, and the general information 30 is written on the third leaf piece 23 that appears after folding. The second leaf piece 22 and the back surface of the first leaf piece 21 to be concealed later are bonded to each other in a non-peelable manner by the double-sided adhesive sheet, so that nothing is described and is in a blank paper state. Note that a copy-forgery-inhibited pattern 29 or the like may be printed on this portion so that the internal confidential information 29 cannot be seen through when folded and integrated.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the three-fold postcard paper S <b> 2 is formed so that the front surfaces of the second leaf piece 22 and the third leaf piece 23, and the back surfaces of the second leaf piece 22 and the first leaf piece 21 are respectively connected via the pseudo adhesive sheet G. Folded to face each other. At that time, as shown in FIG. 5B, the sealing toner T formed on the opening edge side of the second leaf piece 22 and the third leaf piece 23 is folded so as to face each other. The sealing toner T is shown in the drawing as forming an interface for convenience, but since it is actually heated and pressurized, it is melted and integrated so that it cannot be peeled off. That is, the half-folded postcard is sealed with the sealing toner T so that it cannot be opened.

  In order to peel and develop the postcard, as shown in FIG. 6A, for example, the opening side edge is cut off with a scissors, a cutter or the like along the opening cut line M displayed along the opening edge. As indicated by a two-dot chain line P in FIG. 5B, the cut-off line M is displayed along a space generated between the pseudo adhesive sheet G and the sealing toner T arranged at a position away from the pseudo adhesive sheet G. Therefore, the double-folded postcard cut along the cut line M (two-dot chain line P) forms a non-adhesive area that is completely cut off from the sealing toner T and becomes the beginning of opening, as in the first embodiment. It will be. Then, the recipient can easily peel and develop the non-adhesive area formed at the opening portion of the second leaf piece 22 and the third leaf piece 23, which is the beginning of peeling, with a finger. In addition, since this postcard is completely bonded between the opposing surfaces of the first leaf piece 21 and the second leaf piece 22 by the double-sided adhesive sheet E so as not to be peeled off, it finally becomes a folded form.

7A and 7B are a front view and a rear view of a modification of the second embodiment. FIG. 8 is a plan view of a modification of the second embodiment and a sectional view taken along the line ZZ.
This embodiment is a modification of the second embodiment, and the difference from the second embodiment is that the confidential information is also provided on the back surfaces of the first leaf piece 21 and the second leaf piece 22 of the three-fold postcard paper S3 as shown in FIG. 7B. 29, and a sealing toner T is provided. Others are the same as in the second embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 8 (A) and 8 (B), the tri-fold postcard after completion is opened by cutting along the cut-off line M (double-dotted line P) on both sides. At this time, each leaf piece after opening is separated individually.

  FIG. 9A shows a modification of the tri-fold postcard. FIG. 6A shows that the sealing toner T is provided only on the surface side of the second leaf piece 22 and the third leaf piece 23 on which the confidential information 29 is written, and the remaining part is the general information. In this configuration, the sealing toner T is not provided. When there are a plurality of opposed leaf pieces as described above, it is not necessary to provide the sealing toner T on all the opposed leaf pieces, and it may be provided on an arbitrary opposed leaf piece. Which counter leaf is provided with the sealing toner T may be determined according to the situation.

FIG. 9B shows a three-fold postcard in a folded form instead of a Z-folded form.
In this case, the third leaf piece 23 is wound inside, and the unsealed portion is one place between the back surface of the first leaf piece 21 and the opposing leaf piece on the surface of the third leaf piece 23. When cut off from the two-dot chain line P in the figure, the first leaf piece 21 and the second leaf piece 22 are expanded in a folded state, and the third leaf piece 23 is separated into a single leaf state. Note that the two-point difference line P ′ on the folding line 24 side may be cut off.

10A and 10B are plan views showing variations of the sealing toner pattern.
Each sealing toner T of the above-described embodiment is represented by a continuous belt shape in each drawing, but there is no particular limitation on the shape thereof. For example, as shown in FIG. 10A, discontinuous patterns may be arranged symmetrically so as to face each other with folding lines. Further, as shown in FIG. 5B, the opposing pattern shapes do not necessarily have to be congruent, and if there is an overlapping part at least when folded and faced, the part is melted and integrated and completely bonded and sealed. It performs a function. Further, if the toner has a strong fusing force, the sealing toner T may be provided only on one of the opposing leaf pieces.

11A and 11B are cross-sectional views showing the insertion position of the pseudo adhesive sheet.
In the cross-sectional views of the above-described embodiments, the arrangement of the pseudo adhesive sheet G is in close contact with each fold line side, but as shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, the space is slightly spaced from the fold line. D may be formed and arranged. In this way, it is convenient because the beginning of peeling can be formed when cutting and opening from the fold line side.

Next, the manufacturing method of the information communication body which has the cut-off edge of this invention is demonstrated.
FIGS. 12A and 12B are a front view and a back view of the long sheet S4 used in the method for producing a folded paper postcard. FIG. 13 is a schematic diagram of a main part showing a method for producing a folded paper postcard. FIG. 14 is a cross-sectional view of the long sheet S4 in an intermediate process of manufacture.
As shown in FIG. 12 (A), the two-fold postcard paper t1 used in this embodiment has a first leaf piece 31 and a second leaf piece 32 of a postcard size having a fold line 33 (not necessarily displayed but a sewing machine or the like). The postage stamp column 34 and the postal code column 35 are described on the surface of the first leaf piece 31. Further, the address name 36 of the recipient is described by a printer or the like, but there is no special restriction on the description time, and a label or the like indicating the address name may be attached. Further, general information 37 such as advertisements is displayed on the surface of the second leaf piece 32.

  As shown in FIG. 12 (B), the back surfaces of the first leaf piece 31 and the second leaf piece 32 are folded inside from the fold line 33 to be concealed, but the personal confidential information 38 of the recipient is described. Has been. The secret information 38 does not necessarily have to be personal information, and may be general information, even if general information is mixed or general information that does not require secrecy. Further, a sealing toner T is provided outside each confidential information 38.

  A marginal portion 40 provided with a plurality of marginal holes 39 is provided on the left side of the first leaf piece 31 via a cut-off line 41 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like). Similarly, a marginal portion 40 is also provided on the right side of the second leaf piece 32 via a cut-off line 41 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like).

The folded postcard paper t1 formed in this way is connected to the state of the long sheet S4 via upper and lower cut-off lines 42 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like).
The long sheet S4 may be in a state of being wound up in a roll shape or in a state of being folded in a bellows shape using the upper and lower cut-off lines 41 when producing a bi-fold postcard. .

  As shown in FIG. 13, the long sheet S <b> 4 is continuously folded into two by a paper platform 50 such as an angle that also serves as a paper folding machine on the left side of the drawing, and is pulled up to the support roller 51. At this time, for example, the marginal portion 40 on the first leaf piece 31 side needs to be excised using an inter-stacker or the like, but what has been excised in advance may be placed on the paper platform 50. Subsequently, the marginal hole 39 is aligned with the pin of the first pin tractor 52 and sent to the right downstream. Then, until the second pin tractor 54, the roll-like pseudo adhesive sheet G waiting in the downward direction is continuously supplied upward and between the opposed surfaces of the folded first leaf piece 31 and the second leaf piece 32. For example, it is forcibly inserted by a known insertion means such as a turn plate 53, and the cross section is in the state shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, the marginal portion 40 on the second leaf piece 32 side is cut off from the cutoff line 41 by the slitter 55 arranged on the downstream side of the second pin tractor 54. That is, the marginal portion 40 is cut off from the two-point difference line Q (corresponding to the cut line 41) shown in FIG. 14 to complete the state shown in FIG.

  Then, the long sheet S4 from which both the marginal portions 40 have been cut is cut into a postcard-defined size by, for example, die-cut rollers 56 and 57, a rotary cutter, and the like, and further sent downstream in the single product state of FIG.

  In the downstream, a plurality of heater panels 59 and a plurality of conveying rollers 58 facing each other are alternately arranged, and the double-folded postcard paper t1 cut to the specified size has a pseudo adhesive sheet G sandwiched between opposed leaf pieces. In the state, it passes between the upper and lower heater panels 59, 59. At this time, since the heater panel 59 is heated to about 100 ° C. or more, the heat-sensitive adhesive layers 12 on both outer sides of the pseudo adhesive sheet G sandwiched between the opposed leaf pieces are activated by heating and exhibit adhesiveness. Further, since the sealing toner T that is in contact with the opposite side is melted by heat, the folded-fold postcard paper t1 that has passed between the pressure rollers 60 and 60 at the discharge port in this state is the counter leaf piece. The sealing adhesive T is integrated with the pseudo adhesive sheet G sandwiched therebetween so as to be peelable, and the sealing toner T is fused so as not to peel. The completed bi-fold postcards are sequentially accumulated on a stacker 61 composed of a belt conveyor or the like.

Next, a method for manufacturing a tri-fold crimped postcard will be described.
FIGS. 15A and 15B are a front view and a back view of the long sheet S5 used in the method for manufacturing a tri-fold postcard. FIG. 16 is a conceptual diagram showing the main part of a method for producing a tri-fold postcard. FIG. 17 is a cross-sectional view of the long sheet S5 in an intermediate process of manufacture.
As shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B, in the tri-fold postcard paper t2 of the present embodiment, the first leaf piece 71, the second leaf piece 72, and the third leaf piece 73 are arranged horizontally via the folding lines 74 and 75. It is connected in the direction (which may be in the vertical direction). As shown in FIG. 5A, a postage stamp column 76 and a postal code column 77 are described on the surface of the first leaf piece 71. In addition, although the address name 78 of the recipient is described by a printer or the like, there is no special restriction on the description time, and a label or the like indicating the address name may be affixed. Further, the surfaces of the second leaf piece 72 and the third leaf piece 73 are folded and concealed, and personal confidential information 79 of the recipient is described. Note that the secret information 79 does not necessarily have to be personal information, and it does not matter whether general information is mixed or general information that does not require secrecy.
Sealing toner T is formed on the outer side of each secret information 79 at symmetrical positions around the folding line 75.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 15B, the first leaf piece 71, the second leaf piece 72, and the third leaf piece 73 back surface are described with general information 80 on the back surface of the third leaf piece 73 that is exposed after being folded. And since the double-sided adhesive sheet E is scheduled to be inserted between the second leaf piece 72 concealed after folding and the opposing leaf piece on the back of the first leaf piece 71, it becomes impossible to peel off at the time of completion, and no information can be written on it. State. In addition, regarding the blank paper portion, even if the background pattern of various complicated patterns is printed or the whole pattern is filled in order to prevent the inside secret information 79 from being seen through after the tri-fold postcard is completed. I do not care.

  A marginal portion 82 provided with a plurality of marginal holes 81 is provided outside the first leaf piece 71 via a cut-off line 83 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like). Similarly, a marginal portion 82 is also provided on the right side of the third leaf piece 73 via a cut-off line 83 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like).

The tri-fold postcard paper t2 formed in this way is connected to the state of the long sheet S5 via upper and lower cut-off lines 84 (not necessarily displayed but may be replaced with a sewing machine or the like).
Note that the long sheet S5 may be rolled up in the form of a tri-fold postcard or may be folded into a bellows using the upper and lower cut-off lines 84. .

  As shown in FIG. 16, the long sheet S <b> 5 is continuously folded in three by a paper platform 90 such as an angle that also serves as a paper folding machine on the left side in the drawing, and is pulled up to the support roller 91. At this time, for example, the marginal portion 82 on the first leaf piece 71 side needs to be excised using an inter-stacker or the like, but what has been excised in advance may be placed on the paper platform 90. Subsequently, the marginal hole 81 is aligned with the pin of the first pin tractor 92 and sent to the right downstream. Then, until the second pin tractor 95, the roll-shaped double-sided adhesive sheet E (which may be a pseudo adhesive sheet G) and the pseudo adhesive sheet G waiting in the downward direction are continuously supplied upward and folded. The cross section of the first leaf piece 71 and the second leaf piece 72 is forcibly inserted by known insertion means such as turn plates 93 and 94 between the opposite leaf pieces of the second leaf piece 72 and the third leaf piece 73. Thus, the state shown in FIG.

  Thereafter, the remaining marginal portion 82 is cut off by the slitter 96 disposed on the downstream side of the second pin tractor 95. With respect to excision of the marginal portion 82, as shown in FIG. 17, if it is excised from a two-dot difference line Q (corresponding to the cut-off line 83) in the drawing, the state shown in FIG.

  The long sheet S5 from which both marginal parts 82 have been cut is sent further downstream in the state shown in FIG. 6B, and is cut to a specified postcard size by a known cutting means such as die cut rollers 97 and 98 or a rotary cutter. Then, it is sent further downstream in the single item state of FIG.

  Downstream, heater panels 100 and conveying rollers 99 facing each other are alternately arranged, and the tri-fold postcard paper t2 cut to the specified size is provided with a double-sided adhesive sheet E and a pseudo-adhesive sheet G between the opposing leaf pieces. Is passed between the upper and lower heater panels 100, 100. At this time, since the heater panel 100 is heated to about 100 ° C. or more, the heat-sensitive adhesive layers 12 on both outer sides of the double-sided adhesive sheet E and the pseudo-adhesive sheet G sandwiched between the opposing leaf pieces are activated by heating. Since the sealing toner T that exhibits adhesiveness and is in contact with the opposite side is melted by heat, the tri-fold postcard paper t2 that has passed between the pressure rollers 101 and 101 at the discharge port in this state. Is integrated with the double-sided adhesive sheet E sandwiched between the opposing leaf pieces so as not to be peeled off and from the pseudo-adhesive sheet G, and further, the sealing toner T is fused so as not to be peeled off. The completed tri-fold postcards are sequentially accumulated on a stacker 102 composed of a belt conveyor or the like.

FIGS. 20A and 20B are a front view and a back view of the double-folded postcard paper t3 cut into a single product from cut paper. FIG. 21 is a main part conceptual diagram showing a process for manufacturing a folded postcard. FIG. 22 is a cross-sectional view of a half-folded postcard.
As shown in FIGS. 18A and 18B, four double-folded postcard papers t3 are printed on cut paper S6 having a four-size chrysanthemum size. In the folded sheet for postcard t3, the first leaf piece 111 and the second leaf piece 112 are connected in the horizontal direction (or in the vertical direction) via the folding line 113. On the surface of the first leaf piece 111, a postage stamp column 114, a postal code column 115, and a recipient's address name 116 are described by, for example, a double-sided printer. There is no particular restriction on the timing of writing the address name 116 or the like, and it is described when the cut paper S6 is in a state, when it is cut into a single item, or after it is finished in a half-folded postcard. It doesn't matter. In addition, a label or the like on which an address name is written may be attached.
Further, general information 117 such as advertisement is described on the surface of the second leaf piece 112.

  As shown in FIG. 18 (B), personal confidential information 118 of the recipient is described on the back side of each leaf piece of the folded paper t3. The secret information 118 does not necessarily have to be personal information, and may be general information, even if general information is mixed or general information that does not require secrecy. On the outside, sealing toner T is formed at symmetrical positions around the folding line 113. The sealing toner T is formed at the same time as the description of the concealment upper portion 118, but there is no particular limitation on the timing of these as with the timing of the address name 115.

By the way, there are two types of pseudo-adhesive media used in the case of producing bi-fold or tri-fold postcards with cut paper, called “varnishing and post-glue” in the industry, and “full-faced film system”. .
In FIG. 19A, a pseudo-adhesive film F is formed on the pseudo-adhesive surface of the hatched portion by applying and drying a pseudo-adhesive UV varnish called “varnishing and post-adhesive” or an emulsion type adhesive. It is a top view of things.
FIG. 19B is a plan view of the pseudo adhesive film F formed on the pseudo adhesion target surface in the hatched portion by laminating a pseudo adhesive film sheet called “film full adhesion”.

In any case, the sheet S6 on which the pseudo-adhesive film F is formed is cut into a single folded paper t3 as shown in FIGS. 20A and 20B in the next cutting step.
According to FIG. 5B, the pseudo-adhesive film F is cut off in the vertical direction. For example, according to the above-described “varnishing and post-glue”, the non-adhesive area is formed on all four sides of the postcard surface. The pattern coating such as forming can be freely performed. Therefore, it is convenient because the shape of the pseudo adhesion planned surface can be selected according to the purpose.

As shown in FIG. 21, the folded postcard paper t3 finished as a single product is then placed on a production line in which, for example, a folding machine 120 and a heating / pressurizing machine 121 are linked.
The double-folded postcard paper t3 stacked on the folding machine 120 is folded in half and conveyed to the heating / pressurizing processor by the conveyor belt 122 or the like. The heating / pressurizing processor 121 has a plurality of heater panels 123 and a plurality of conveying rollers 124 arranged alternately facing each other around the pass line of the conveying sheet, and is arranged at the end thereof. This is a mechanism for discharging by the pressure roller 125. The half-folded postcard paper t3 passing therethrough is heated by the heater panel 123 and subjected to pressure treatment by the pressure roller 125 at the final outlet. As a result, the pseudo-adhesive films F that are folded and opposed to each other are pseudo-bonded so as to be peeled off and integrated in the state of the cross-sectional view shown in FIG. The integrated bi-fold postcards are sequentially accumulated on a stacker 126 such as a belt conveyor.

FIG. 23 is a front view of the three-fold postcard paper t4 that is Z-folded or wound on the cut paper S7 having a four-size chrysanthemum size. In this case, since the pseudo-adhesive planned surface also occurs on the back side, it is necessary to form the pseudo-adhesive film F on the back side of the paper. FIGS. 24A and 24B show cross-sections of the Z-fold and roll-fold trifold postcards completed using the trifold postcard paper t4.
FIG. 2C shows a case in which two of the continuous three-leaf pieces are pseudo-adhered with a pseudo-adhesive medium (which may be a pseudo-adhesive sheet G), and the remaining left one-leaf piece is left in a free state. This can be used, for example, as a reciprocating postcard with the left one leaf piece as a reply postcard and the right two integrated leaf pieces as a forward postcard.

FIG. 25A is a view in which the space formed between the pseudo adhesive medium F and the sealing toner T is eliminated. Even if this product is cut off as it is, there is no beginning of peeling, and peeling development cannot be performed. Therefore, after forming the pseudo-adhesive medium F at the cut-off portion, a peeling treatment H such as silicon or printing ink is performed, so that it becomes the beginning of the peeling after the cutting-off.
FIG. 5B shows the case where both the sealing toner T and the peeling treatment H are formed after the pseudo adhesive medium F is formed on the entire inner surface of the opposing leaf.
About the above, it can apply also to the type which inserts the above-mentioned pseudo adhesive sheet G between opposing leaf pieces.

The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment.
For example, the variation of folding may be a folding form of four or more. Furthermore, the present invention may be applied not only to the Z-folding but also to the folding form. In the case of a plurality of folding forms, a bellows-folding form, a winding-folding form, a kannon-folding form, or the like may be mixed.
Moreover, the pseudo-adhesive medium to be used by being sandwiched between the opposing leaf pieces or the pseudo-adhesive medium to be formed is not only a pseudo-adhesive sheet or medium but also a double-sided adhesive sheet or medium, and the opposing leaf pieces are completely unopenable. You may adhere.
Further, an opposing leaf piece that remains free and does not adhere may be provided arbitrarily, and the leaf piece can be used as a return postcard for a reciprocating postcard as in the ninth embodiment.
Furthermore, in Embodiments 8 and 9, the postcard paper is not finished into a single item by cutting, but it may be put into a folding machine with two sheets attached and cut off at its discharge port and finished into a single item. At that time, two postcards are sent side by side to a post-heating / pressurization processor, and the work efficiency is doubled.
