Description

  The present invention relates to a print sheet used by being inserted into a printer.

Conventionally, a tag used for a price tag of a product has a brand name or a company name printed on the front surface, and a label on which the product price or identification barcode is printed on the back surface ( For example, Patent Document 1). Such a label is formed by dividing the tack base material of the tack sheet into a plurality of sheets by half-cut in consideration of production efficiency.
When a label is required, the tack sheet is inserted into a printer, a required number of labels are printed, the printed label is peeled off from the tack sheet, and is attached to the back side of the tag such as the price tag described above. For example, a single tack sheet is configured to be able to peel a total of 24 labels in 6 rows and 4 columns, and if 4 labels are required, the printer can use 4 sheets on the tack sheet. Print the required information on the label only. The printed label is peeled off from the tack sheet and attached to each tag. The remaining 20 unused labels are left on the tack sheet and stored again until a label is needed.

When the label becomes necessary again, the tack sheet from which the four labels are peeled off is inserted into the printer again, and the necessary number of labels are printed. The tack sheet on which such a label is formed has the advantages that it is possible to repeatedly print the required number of labels with a printer, so that it is possible to avoid the production of useless labels, and it is easy to respond to changes in print contents. .
However, as described above, when the tack sheet is repeatedly inserted into the printer, the cross-sectional portion of the tack sheet after peeling the label comes into contact with the base material conveyance portion (roller) of the printer, and the cross-sectional portion The remaining tack sheet pressure-sensitive adhesive sometimes adhered to the substrate transport section. As a result, the base material conveyance unit of the printer is soiled, and there is a problem that a paper jam or a malfunction of the printer itself occurs. Further, since the printed label must be attached to the tag by the user, there has been a demand for reducing labor.

As shown in FIG. 20 is bonded to the base substrate 40 through a pseudo adhesive layer (adhesive layer) 30 so as to be peelable.
The sheet-like base material 20 is a price tag mount that is divided into a total of 24 price tag tags 21 and an auxiliary base material portion 23 by a cut line 24 in 6 rows and 4 columns.

  The price tag tag 21 is a tag that displays the price of the product 110, and includes a hole base material portion 22 that can be divided by a score line 25. As shown in FIG. 1C, the brand name 26 of the product 110 is printed in advance on the surface (rear surface) of the price tag tag 21 to be bonded to the pseudo adhesive layer 30. The price and the identification barcode 27 corresponding to the product 110 are printed on the surface of the price tag tag 21 by the printer 100 (see FIG. 3A).

The hole base material portion 22 is separated from the price tag tag 21 by the cut line 25, so that a hole is formed in the price tag tag 21, and the price tag tag 21 can be attached to the product 110 by passing a string through the hole (FIG. 3 (B)).
The auxiliary base material portion 23 is a blank portion provided between the price tag tags 21. By leaving this auxiliary base material part 23 without peeling from the base base material 40, the rotational force of the base material transport part of the printer 100 is transmitted to the printing sheet 10 regardless of the presence or absence of the price tag tag 21, The printing sheet 10 can be stably conveyed.
The cut line 24 is a half cut provided around the price tag tag 21.
The cut line 25 is a half cut provided around the hole base material portion 22.

The pseudo adhesive layer 30 is formed by laminating an emulsion type adhesive (dry curing type adhesive) mainly composed of a vinyl acetate resin or an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer and a release layer on the base substrate 40 in order. The adhesive layer is formed with a thickness of about 10 μm and has pseudo adhesive properties.
The adhesive force adjusting unit 31 is an adhesive layer having the same layer configuration as that of the pseudo adhesive layer 30, and changes the blending ratio of the material blended in the emulsion adhesive of the pseudo adhesive layer 30 to pseudo-adhere the adhesive force. It is stronger than the layer 30. As shown in FIG. 1D, the adhesive force adjusting unit 31 is provided on the base substrate 40 so as to be bonded to one end that intersects the substrate carrying direction of the price tag tag 21 into the printer 100. Yes.
The adhesive force adjusting unit 32 is the same adhesive layer as the adhesive force adjusting unit 31 and is provided on the base substrate 40 so as to be bonded to the hole base material portion 22 and the periphery thereof.
The base substrate 40 is a mount on which the sheet-like substrate 20 is pseudo bonded by the pseudo adhesive layer 30.
The printer 100 is a device that prints a price and an identification barcode 27 on the price tag tag 21 of the print sheet 10.

Next, a method for using the print sheet 10 will be described.
When producing the price tag tag 21, first, the printing sheet 10 is printed so that the adhesive strength adjusting portion 31 of the price tag tag 21 is placed in the printer 100 as shown in FIG. 2A. The sheet 10 is placed in the printer 100 and the price and identification barcode 27 are printed on the price tag tag 21. At this time, even if the printing sheet 10 is bent along the base material transporting portion (roller) of the printer 100, the price tag tag 21 and the hole base material portion 22 are separated from the base base material 40 by the adhesive force adjusting portions 31 and 32. It is conveyed and printed integrally with the printing sheet 10 without peeling.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 2B, even if the printing sheet 10 that has been used, such that only the hole base material portion 22 remains on the basic base material 40, is fed to the printer 100, the printing sheet is similarly applied. 10 is transported and printed without peeling the hole base material portion 22 from the base base material 40 by the adhesive force adjusting portion 32. In addition, since the base material conveyance part of the printer 100 at this time conveys the printing sheet 10 by contacting the auxiliary base material part 23 without contacting the exposed adhesive layer 30, the pseudo adhesive layer 30 is used. It prevents the substrate transport unit from being soiled.

As shown in FIG. 3A, the printed price tag tag 21 is peeled off from the basic base material 40 so as to leave the hole base material portion 22 (arrow D). At this time, the hole base material portion 22 is formed so as to be freely divided into the price tag tag 21 by the cut line 25, and is adhered to the base base material 40 more strongly than the surrounding pseudo adhesive layer 30 by the adhesive force adjusting portion 32. The price tag tag 21 is not peeled off. In addition, since the adhesive force adjusting unit 32 is also provided around the hole base material unit 22, the adhesive layer to be peeled off moves from the pseudo adhesive layer 30 to the adhesive force adjusting unit 32 in the process of peeling the price tag tag 21. As a result, the adhesive force changes. Due to this change, the speed at which the price tag tag 21 is peeled down, so that the hole base material portion 22 can be easily left on the base base material 40.
By removing the price tag tag 21 from the base substrate 40, a hole can be formed in the price tag tag 21, so that the price tag tag 21 can be attached to the product 110 through a string through the hole as shown in FIG.

From the above, the printing sheet of this embodiment has the following effects.

By strengthening the adhesive force of the pseudo adhesive layer 30, it is possible to prevent the price tag tag 21 from being peeled off from the base substrate 40 when the printing sheet 10 is bent.
(2) Since the price tag tag 21 includes the hole base material portion 22 and the score line 25, and the hole base material portion 22 and the adhesive force adjusting portion 32 around the hole base material portion 22, the price tag tag 21 is used as a basis without peeling the hole base material portion 22. The hole base material portion 22 can be peeled off from the base substrate 40 even when the print sheet 10 is bent by the base material transport portion of the printer 100 when the print sheet 10 is loaded into the printer 100. The printing sheet 10 can be transported without any trouble, and problems such as a paper jam of the printer 100 can be prevented.

(3) Since the adhesive force adjusting unit 31 is provided at one end of the price tag tag 21 in the substrate transport direction of the printer 100, the print sheet 10 is transported when the print sheet 10 is loaded into the printer 100. Even if bent by the portion, the price tag 21 can be transported without peeling off the base substrate 40, and problems such as paper jam of the printer 100 can be prevented.
(4) Since the pseudo-adhesion layer 30 is composed of a dry curable adhesive provided on the base substrate 40 and a release layer provided on the dry curable adhesive, the price tag tag from the printed sheet 10 Even if the printing sheet 10 is loaded into the printer 100 with the pseudo adhesive layer 30 exposed, the printing sheet 10 can be conveyed without fouling the substrate conveying unit of the printer 100. it can.
(5) Since the adhesive force adjusting units 31 and 32 change the mixing ratio of the dry curable adhesive compounding material, the adhesive force of the pseudo adhesive layer 30 can be adjusted by a simple method.

(Modification)
The present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and various modifications and changes are possible, and these are also within the equivalent scope of the present invention.
