Description

    The present invention relates to a label without mount for price reduction and a printing method thereof, and more particularly to a label without mount for price reduction and a printing method thereof for performing price reduction disposal a plurality of times.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a labelless mountless label having a bar code hiding area capable of hiding at least a bar code portion of an original price displayed on a product has been developed.
The above-mentioned label without mount for price reduction will be outlined with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 5 is a plan view of the price display label 1 and the label 2 without mount for price reduction.
The price display label 1 is affixed to a predetermined part of the product M, and displays various necessary information related to the product M, for example, a retail store name 3, a product name 4, a price 5, and the like. Yes. In particular, the product name or product number is displayed by the barcode 6.

As shown in FIG. 5, the label 2 without price reduction mount has a rectangular label main body region 7 and a barcode concealing region 8.
FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along line VI-VI in FIG. 5. The label 2 without mount for price reduction includes a label base material 9 that forms a label main body region 7 and a barcode concealment region 8, and The thermal color former layer 10 formed on the entire surface, the release agent layer 11 made of a silicone release agent formed on the entire surface (upper layer side) of the thermal color former layer 10, and the entire back surface of the label substrate 9. It has the laminated structure of the label without a mount which has the formed adhesive layer 12 and aimed at resource saving. It should be noted that the label-less label 2 for lowering the price is continuously connected to form a label continuous body, and a position detection mark 13 for detecting the position when loaded into a predetermined printer (not shown) is provided on the label substrate 9. It can form in the back surface side of.

The label main body region 7 can perform at least printing for price reduction (for example, price reduction price 14 or price reduction barcode 15) in the thermal color former layer 10.
The bar code hiding area 8 has a relatively smaller area than the label main body area 7, for example, a rectangular shape, and protrudes from the label main body area 7 to the outer side (right side in the figure). The product name 4 and the price 5 in the label 1 are avoided, and a part of the barcode 6 is covered to make the mechanical reading impossible (see the phantom line in FIG. 5).

    Therefore, when purchasing the product M, the bar code 6 for the price reduction label 2 is read at the cash register instead of the bar code 6 for the price display label 1, thereby reducing the price while preventing the erroneous reading of the bar code 6. Processing can be performed.

However, the price may be changed (reduced) a plurality of times depending on the sales of the product M or the time until the retail store is closed. In this case, the label 2 with no mount for price reduction is applied a plurality of times. It will be pasted over and over.
FIG. 7 is a plan view showing a state in which the label 2 without price reduction mount 2 is overlapped and pasted a plurality of times (for example, twice), and the label without the price reduction mount first attached to the price display label 1. The bar code concealing area 8 of 2 (no price reduction mount label 2A) conceals the bar code 6 of the price display label 1.
However, the label 2 without the price reduction mount 2 (the label 2B without price reduction mount), which should be concealed the price reduction barcode 15 of the label 2A without the price reduction mount, is the surface of the label 2A without the price reduction mount. Therefore, there is a problem in that the adhesiveness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 12 of the label 2B without label for price reduction is reduced, and the label 2A without label for price reduction is easily peeled off.
There is also a problem of inducing a fraudulent act of attaching the label 2B without the price-reduction mount 2A to the other label 2 without the price-reduction mount (or label 2A without the price-reduction mount).

    SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a label boardless label for price reduction that can be used properly when the price reduction process is performed a plurality of times, and a printing method therefor.

    It is another object of the present invention to provide a label board without price reduction label and a printing method therefor, which can reliably affix a label without label board for price reduction to be pasted on a label without label board for price reduction already pasted. .

    Another object of the present invention is to provide a label board without price reduction label and a printing method therefor that can reliably hide the price reduction barcode of the label board without price reduction label.

    That is, the present invention pays attention to the fact that the release region where the release agent layer is formed and the non-release region where the release agent layer is not formed are separately formed on the surface of the label substrate. Is a label base material, an adhesive layer formed on the back surface of the label base material, a thermosensitive color former layer formed on the surface of the label base material, and a release agent layer formed on the thermosensitive color former layer. The label base material has a label main body region capable of performing price reduction printing including at least a price reduction barcode in the thermosensitive color former layer, and protrudes outward from the label main body region. A bar code hiding area that is capable of hiding at least the bar code portion of the original price label already displayed on the product, and a label without mount for price reduction, and the peeling on the surface of the label main body area The release region where the layer is formed and the non-release region where the release agent layer is not formed are formed separately, and this non-release region is one of the price-reduction barcodes printed on the thermal color former layer. A label without mount for price reduction, characterized in that a part can be included.

    The second invention is a label base material, a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on the back surface of the label base material, a heat-sensitive color former layer formed on the surface of the label base material, and an upper layer of the heat-sensitive color former layer. A release agent layer, and the label base material has a label body region capable of performing a price-reduction printing including at least a barcode for price reduction in the thermosensitive color former layer, and outward from the label body region. A label-less label printing method that forms a barcode hiding area that protrudes and that is capable of hiding at least the bar code portion of the original price displayed on the product, the label body On the surface of the region, a separation region in which the release agent layer is formed and a non-peeling region in which the release agent layer is not formed are formed separately, and a part of the price reduction barcode is not separated. A price reduction for mount unlabeled printing method and performing printing in the heat-sensitive color-developing agent layer so as to be included in the range.

    The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on the back surface side of the peeling region in the label main body region, and the non-pressure-sensitive adhesive layer not provided with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is formed on the back surface side of the non-peeling region in the label main body region. Can be.

    The adhesive layer is formed on the back surface of the label base material in at least a part of the barcode concealment region of the label base material, and the release agent layer corresponding to the adhesive layer is formed on the surface of the label base material. Can be formed.

    In the label without mount for price reduction according to the present invention and the printing method therefor, the release region where the release agent layer is formed and the non-release region where the release agent layer is not formed are separately formed on the surface of the label substrate. As a result, the barcode concealment area of the label without mount for price reduction to be pasted for the second time or later can be affixed to the non-peeling area, and the label without label for price reduction is securely attached to the label without label for price reduction. Can be pasted.

    In particular, according to the first invention, the surface of the label base material is formed by separating the release region in which the release agent layer is formed and the non-release region in which the release agent layer is not formed. You can continue to apply labels without mount for price reduction.

    In particular, according to the second invention, printing is performed on the heat-sensitive color former layer so that a part of the barcode for price reduction is included in the non-peeling area. When the no-mounting label is pasted, a part of the lowering bar code in the non-peeling area in the pasted no-mounting label can be concealed to reliably avoid reading.

    In the present invention, since the non-peeling area and the peeling area are divided into at least the label main body area, a label without a label paper for price reduction is applied to the non-peeling area for the second time or later to ensure a bar code for price reduction. The label without a mount for price reduction and the printing method thereof can be realized.

Next, a label-less mountless label 20 and its printing method according to the first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. However, the same parts as those in FIGS. 5 to 7 are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted.
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the label 20 without price reduction mount, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line II-II in FIG. 1. The label 20 without price reduction mount is the label 2 without price reduction mount (FIG. 6). Similarly, it has a label substrate 9, a heat-sensitive color former layer 10, a release agent layer 11 and an adhesive layer 12.

    However, on the surface of the label main body region 7, stripping regions 21 in which the release agent layer 11 is formed and non-peeling regions 22 in which the release agent layer 11 is not formed are alternately and striped in a predetermined area ratio. Is formed.

    Further, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 12 is formed on the back side of the peeling region 21 in the label main body region 7, and the non-pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 23 not provided with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 12 is provided on the back side of the non-peeling region 22 in the label main body region 7. Forming. Thus, even if the label 20 without reduction label 20 is rolled up as a continuous body, the label 20 without reduction label located on the inner peripheral side of the roll and the label 20 without reduction label located on the outer peripheral side are provided. Attaching via the adhesive layer 12 is avoided.

    In addition, while forming the adhesive layer 12 on the back surface of the label base material 9 in at least a part of the barcode hiding region 8 in the label base material 9, the release agent corresponding to the adhesive layer 12 on the surface of the label base material 9. It is desirable to form layer 11.

The non-peeling area 22 can include a part of the price-reducing bar code 15 printed on the heat-sensitive color former layer 10 in the label main body area 7 (see the phantom lines in FIGS. 1 and 2).
That is, printing is performed on the thermal color former layer 10 so that a part of the price reduction barcode 15 is included in the non-peeling region 22.

    In FIG. 1, in the case where the label 20 without price reduction mount is continuously formed as a label continuous body without price reduction, instead of the position detection mark 13, the label 20 at the border of each price reduction base 20 is not provided. A round punch hole 24 for positioning can also be formed.

In the label-less label 20 having such a configuration, the price-reduction barcode 15 is printed so that a part of the price-reduction barcode 15 is applied to the non-peeling area 22 of the label-less label 20 without the label. A label 20 without price reduction label (a label without mount for price reduction) affixed a second time to the non-peeling area 22 of the label 20 without price reduction label (the label 20A without label for price reduction) first attached to the price display label 1 20B), in particular, the barcode concealment region 8 can be reliably attached.
That is, FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a state in which the label 20 without price reduction mount is affixed a plurality of times (for example, twice), and there is no price reduction mount first applied to the price display label 1. The label 20 (the label 20A without the price reduction mount) can hide a part of the barcode 6 of the price display label 1 in the barcode concealment area 8, and the label 20 without the price reduction mount (the price reduction label 20) is affixed a second time. The label 20B) without label is securely attached to the non-peeling area 22 of the label 20A without price reduction via the adhesive layer 12, and the bar code concealment area 8 is not peeled off the label 20A without price reduction board. The price reduction barcode 15 in the region 22 is pasted so as to be partially hidden.

    In addition, since the adhesive layer 12 is formed on the back surface of the label base material 9 in at least a part of the barcode concealment area 8 in the label base material 9, the bar code concealment area 8 is not attached to the label 20A without the price reduction mount. It is possible to reliably adhere to the peeling region 22 and to prevent the price reduction barcode 15 from being inadvertently read at the cash register.

In the present invention, the design of the label main body region 7 and the barcode hiding region 8 is arbitrary.
For example, FIG. 4 is a plan view of a label board without label 30 for price reduction according to the second embodiment of the present invention. have.
Further, the above-described peeling regions 21 and non-peeling regions 22 are alternately formed in a striped pattern across the label main body region 7 and the barcode concealing region 8 in a predetermined area ratio.

    Even in the label 30 without price reduction mount 30 having such a configuration, it is possible to conceal a part of the price reduction barcode 15 by overlapping the multiple price reduction processes, and in particular, a pair of left and right barcode hiding areas. Since 8 is provided, flexibility can be given to the affixing mode.

It is a top view of the label 20 without mount for price reduction by the 1st example of the present invention. It is the II-II sectional view taken on the line of FIG. FIG. 5 is a plan view showing a state where the label 20 without price reduction mount is affixed by being overlapped a plurality of times (for example, twice). It is a top view of the label 30 without a mount for price reduction according to the second embodiment of the present invention. It is a top view of the price display label 1 and the label 2 without a mount for price reduction from the past. FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken along line VI-VI in FIG. 5. FIG. 6 is a plan view showing a state in which the label 2 without mount for price reduction is overlapped and pasted a plurality of times (for example, twice).
