Description

  The present invention relates to a remover that peels off a part of character information printed on a printed matter, and in particular, is wound in an annular shape in which a strong adhesive is applied on one side held rotatably in a remover body. The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape peels off the printed characters by pressing the exposed part of the tape on the remover body against the characters on the printed matter, and then peels off the information such as the characters printed on the printed matter by winding the tape with the peeled characters on. It relates to the character information remover to be deleted.

Conventionally, when personal information such as address, name, or company name or confidential information, such as postcards, sealed letters, printed matter, etc., is printed on the surface with toner or ink and disposed of documents, it is necessary to protect personal information and prevent leakage of confidential information. From the viewpoint, it was necessary to erase the personal information and confidential information described. As a method of erasing information, the personal information or confidential information is covered with ink to such an extent that it cannot be specified, the written part is scraped off, or the information is read by taking measures such as cutting with an electric shredder or scissors. Or it is done to the state which cannot be reproduced. However, the work of painting the character part with ink, the work of scraping, and the work of cutting with scissors and machines are laborious and labor-intensive work. Therefore, there was a problem of being easy.
In addition, the paper pieces cut by the shredder are not used as materials for recycling because the fiber quality of the paper itself is lowered. Even in the usage situation, there was a problem that the waste after disposal was scattered and there was a lot of trouble.

  Therefore, as a means of erasing personal information and confidential information, it is impossible to read or reproduce the information described by transferring irregularly arranged characters and geometric patterns onto the corresponding character part of the printed matter with ink. Stamp-type or roller-type personal information erasing goods that are configured to be in a state have been developed and exist as a necessity. In view of the importance of erasing personal information and confidential information, this is a simpler device that is easy to use and tries to keep secrets in great detail. However, although the above-mentioned stamp-type or roller-type personal information erasure goods are improved in ease as described above, the information described in an unreadable state cannot be easily erased. In addition, the information erasure goods have a problem in that the ink becomes gradually thinner as the use continues, and unevenness occurs, which may cause easy reading.

  As a prior art aimed at solving the above problems, there is a “personal information protecting film sheet” disclosed in Patent Document 1. The invention disclosed in Patent Document 1 is such that a protective sheet is attached to an address portion such as a postcard, and the described portion is peeled and erased by peeling off the sheet so that personal information cannot be easily read. However, this type of protective sheet has a certain range of width, and it is difficult to keep the unit price low, so the use is limited, and there is a tendency to stop using it for those with a high degree of secrecy, It was not a cheap and secure seat that could be used at any time. Moreover, although the invention disclosed in Patent Document 1 has low legibility after peeling, its use is limited, and it can be used to erase characters or the like printed or described at an arbitrary position and range as necessary. There was a problem that it was not suitable for.

The “personal information protection sheet” disclosed in Patent Documents 2 to 4 can be easily erased by erasing the printed characters by rubbing the printed surface on the printed surface that can be easily peeled off after use. This is what you can do.
The inventions disclosed in Patent Documents 2 to 4 are also limited in use as in Patent Document 1, and information cannot be erased unless a label according to the invention is pasted in advance. In addition, there is a problem that it is not suitable for use in which characters printed and written in a range are erased at random.

  The character information remover in this case is a type of remover that peels off part of the character information printed on the printed material from the surface of the printed material in order to prevent the leakage of personal information or confidential document information. The adhesive tape housed in is attached to the printing surface and the characters are destructively peeled off. The character information remover according to the present invention comprises a remover body 10, an adhesive tape 20, a tape holding part 30, a guide 40, a sticking part 15, a tape take-up part 60, and a roller 70. As shown in FIG. 4, the adhesive tape 20 that is rotatably held by the tape holding unit 30 is extended and engaged with the guide 40 with the adhesive-applied surface of the adhesive tape facing down, and pressed by the characters of the printed matter. Then, after the character information is peeled off and attached to the adhesive tape, the adhesive tape 20 in a state where the character is attached is wound around the tape winding unit 60.

The remover main body 10 of the present invention holds and accommodates an adhesive tape, and as shown in FIG. 1, is a casing that also accommodates and holds each member of the character information remover according to the present invention. A sticking portion 15 is provided at the tip of the lower end portion of the remover main body 10 for pressing the adhesive tape 20 against the characters of the printed matter. In the second embodiment of the present invention equipped with the roller 70, the roller opening 12 is provided in order to bring the roller 70 equipped inside the main body into contact with the printing surface of the printed matter.
In the second embodiment, the roller 70 is provided. However, in the case where the roller is not provided, or when the roller is additionally installed outside the remover body, the remover body 10 is provided with a roller. It is not necessary to provide an opening.
The remover main body 10 has a structure that can be opened and closed or removed in whole or in part so that the adhesive tape 20 can be removed.
The material of the remover body 10 is preferably formed of plastic, vinyl chloride, aluminum, or the like, but is not limited to these materials as long as each member can be held.

  The adhesive tape 20 is wound around the peripheral surface of the rotary shaft in the remover body 10 so as to be able to be freely taken out. As shown in FIG. 5, an adhesive 22 having a strong adhesive force is applied to one surface of the tape. In other words, it is configured by winding it around a cylindrical rotating shaft (core) and winding it in an annular shape. The adhesive 22 with strong adhesive force is pressed and contacted with the character information part printed and described on the printed matter, and the character information is partially destroyed by peeling off the surface part on which the character is printed and sticking it to the adhesive side. And form an unreadable state.

The adhesive 22 to be used needs to have a strong adhesive strength enough to peel off the character information from the printing surface. The surface to which the adhesive 22 is applied may be either on the inner side (tape center side) or on the outer side.
The adhesive 22 is preferably applied partially on one side of the tape from the viewpoint of making it unreadable and making it impossible to reproduce. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, it is desirable to apply to the adhesive tape 20 in the form of horizontal stripes or vertical stripes, polka dots or checkered patterns, geometric patterns or many small dots, but the shape of the application surface is limited. is not. Of course, a structure in which the entire surface of the tape is uniformly coated may be used if possible in terms of cost.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the tape holding unit 30 is made of a cylindrical member having a rotation shaft that holds the adhesive tape 20 in a rotatable state. The pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 20 is detachably attached to the tape holding part 30. When the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape has been used, the used tape is removed and a new pressure-sensitive adhesive tape can be attached to the tape holding part.

  The tape holding unit 30 includes a tape mounting unit 32 and a first gear 34. The tape mounting portion 32 and the first gear 34 are fixed and interlocked. The tape mounting portion 32 is a member that fits and fixes the adhesive tape 20 in a freely rotatable manner, and is configured such that the tape is rotatable with respect to the remover main body 10. The first gear 34 is a gear that is provided to prevent the tape mounting portion 32 from rotating in reverse while simultaneously rotating the tape mounting portion 32 and the tape housing portion 62. The tape mounting portion 32 is configured to prevent reverse rotation of the peeled tape wound around the adhesive tape 20 and the tape winding portion 60.

  The guide 40 is a guide for rotating and extending from the tape holding unit 30 to pull out the adhesive tape 20, and protrudes from the tip of the remover main body 10 so that the adhesive-coated surface of the tape can be pressed against the characters of the printed matter. In place. The pressure-sensitive adhesive-coated surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 20 drawn out toward the guide 40 is pressed and adhered to the printing surface together with the guide, and strongly adheres to the printed characters of the printed matter. The guide member is preferably fixed, but a rotating roller body may be used to improve the rotational performance.

The adhering portion 15 is an opening provided at the tip of the remover main body 10 and is provided to press and contact the guide 40 and the adhesive tape against the characters of the printed matter and to adhere and peel the characters of the printed matter. The guide 40 is installed at a position protruding outward from the opening of the adhering portion 15.
The wound adhesive tape 20 is pulled out from the tape holding part 30 toward the guide 40 of the attaching part 15, and is attached to the characters of the printed matter by the attaching part 15. The tape is wound by the tape take-up unit 60 toward the inside of the remover main body 10 because it is an opening in a state in which the character portion peeled off is attached to the surface coated with the adhesive.
It is desirable that the opening of the sticking portion 15 is secured to have a sufficient size so that the adhesive tape 20 to which information such as characters is attached passes.

The tape winding unit 60 is a rotatable member having a function of winding the adhesive tape 20 sent from the sticking unit 15. By winding up the adhesive tape 20 in which a part of character information of the printed material peeled off from the printed material is adhered to one side, it is possible to efficiently dispose of the adhesive tape 20 after use.
The tape winding unit 60 includes a tape storage unit 62 and a third gear 64. The tape accommodating portion 62 and the third gear 64 are fixed and interlocked. The tape accommodating portion 62 is a member that winds the adhesive tape 20 sent from the sticking portion 15 and is formed to be rotatable with respect to the remover main body 10. Further, the third gear 64 is a gear that is used to prevent the reverse rotation at the same time as the tape housing portion 62 and the tape mounting portion 32 are rotated together, and the tape housing portion 62 rotates in the reverse direction and is wound around the tape housing portion 62. This is used for a mechanism that prevents the peeled tape from flowing backward.

As shown in FIG. 4, the second gear 36 is a reverse rotation preventing gear that serves as a stopper that prevents the first gear 34 and the third gear 64 from rotating in a direction other than a certain direction together with the rotation preventing member 38.
Further, the tape winding unit 60 needs to rotate in conjunction with the rotation of the tape holding unit 30. This is configured such that the tape take-up unit 60 and the tape holding unit 30 rotate simultaneously by the first gear 34 and the third gear 64 rotating through the second gear 36. This mechanism may be one in which the tape take-up unit 60 and the tape holding unit 30 are connected with a band-like material such as rubber or wire and rotated in conjunction with each other.

The roller 70 is a mechanism that makes contact with the printing surface of the printed material in advance when the remover is used, so that the surface is easily peeled off. It is a member for accelerating peeling by scratching the surface of the printing surface in advance before peeling by the pressure-sensitive adhesive tape 20, thereby increasing the roughness of the printing surface and applying pressure-sensitive adhesive. Separation by 20 can be performed more smoothly.
The roller 70 is preferably a cylindrical rotary sword mountain in which a piercing needle is implanted and mounted on a rotating peripheral surface. However, it is only necessary that the rotating body be equipped with a blade that is sharp enough to damage the surface of the printed material. The roller 70 is preferably a cylindrical roller 70 so that it can be smoothly rotated in accordance with the movement of the main body, but the shape is not limited. Moreover, it is desirable that the installation position is provided in the vicinity of the bonding portion formed by the opening of the remover body.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the roller 70 is a rotary sword mountain with a needle mounted on the rotating surface, but a cutter-like blade may be mounted on the rotating surface. Moreover, although it is desirable that the roller 70 is equipped in the vicinity of the sticking portion 15, the equipped portion may be appropriately changed according to the arrangement of the adhesive tape 20. Furthermore, the size of the roller 70 can be appropriately changed depending on the arrangement of the adhesive tape 20.
The roller 70 is preferably provided inside the remover main body 10, but may be provided outside the remover main body 10 by an arm or the like because the roller 70 only needs to come into contact with the printing surface of the printed material when the remover is used.

  Another guide mechanism may be installed so that a mechanism (roller) that damages and roughens the printing surface does not interfere with or contact the adhesive tape so that the roller and the adhesive tape do not contact each other.
