Description

  The present invention relates to an album in which a photographic paper on which an image such as a photograph is printed is attached to a core paper, and a plurality of core papers to which the photographic paper is attached are stacked and bound, and a manufacturing method thereof.

With the spread of digital cameras in recent years, photographs have become even more familiar to general users, and along with this, opportunities for general users to bind as albums are increasing.
For such albums, a simple type in which printed photos are inserted into a transparent pocket and the photos are placed, or photographic paper on which images such as photos are printed, such as graduation albums and wedding albums, are the core. There is a type that sticks to the entire paper surface.

An album 10 manufactured by a manufacturing method as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9 is disclosed as an album of the type in which this photographic paper is stuck to the entire core paper (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
In such a manufacturing method of the album 10, as shown in FIG. 7, first, two sheets of photographic paper 11 on which a photograph is printed are arranged on the left and right sides, and the back surface is attached to the left and right sides of the core paper 12 one by one.
After that, as shown in FIG. 8, the center of the core paper 12 is folded so that the front surface of the photographic paper 11 is on the inside, and a plurality of folded core papers 13 with photographic paper are produced. Then, a plurality of folding core papers with photographic paper 13 are overlapped and the back surfaces of the core papers 12 of the foldable core paper 13 with photographic paper are bonded to each other, as shown in FIG. 14 is attached.

JP 2005-279899 A

  In such an album 10, the core paper 12 is folded so that the photographic paper 11 is on the inside. Therefore, as shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 7, when the left and right photographic papers 11 are attached to the core paper 12 without a gap, When the core paper 12 is bent, the two-dot chain line portions interfere with each other. Therefore, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 7, the left and right photographic papers 11 are stuck to the core paper 12 with a gap of about 1 mm between them.

However, in the case where two sheets of photographic paper 11 are pasted with a gap as described above, if the image is arranged so as to straddle a double-page spread, as shown in FIG. It will be divided. Therefore, since the image must be arranged for each page so that the image does not extend across the spread pages, there is a problem that the layout of the image is restricted.
In addition, for example, there is a method of making the background of the image black in order to give a sharp impression to the viewer of the album 10, but in that case, only the gap 15 in the throat becomes white, so there is a problem that it does not look good.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide an album in which no gap is formed in the throat and a method for manufacturing the album.

  In order to achieve the above object, according to the method for manufacturing an album (20) according to claim 1 of the present invention, a photographic paper (21) on which an image such as a photograph is printed is adhered to a core paper (22). In the manufacturing method of the album (20) in which a plurality of core papers (22) to which the photographic paper (21) is attached are stacked and bound, the photographic paper (21) on which the images are printed is left and right without any gaps. After the sheets are lined up and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film (26), the boundary line between the two photographic papers (21) attached to the film (26) is defined as the film ( 26) while producing a plurality of folded films (27) with photographic paper by bending the front surface to be inside, the plurality of folded films (27) with photographic paper are placed between them. Put the cover (24) on the throat side of the paper (22). And butterflies.

  Further, in the manufacturing method of the album (20) according to claim 2, the photographic paper (21) on which an image such as a photograph is printed is attached to the core paper (22), and the photographic paper (21) is attached. In the method of manufacturing an album (20) in which a plurality of core papers (22) are stacked and bound, two photographic papers (21) on which the image is printed are arranged side by side without any gaps, and the front surface is flexibly arranged. After adhering to the back surface of the adhesive film (26), the boundary line between the two photographic papers (21) attached to the film (26) is defined as the inner surface of the front surface of the film (26). A plurality of folding films (27) with photographic paper are produced by folding the sheets, and the plurality of folding films (27) with photographic paper are stacked with the core paper (22) interposed therebetween. It is characterized in that the side is bound to make the contents, and a cover (24) is attached to the contents.

  Further, in the manufacturing method of the album (20) according to claim 3, the size of the film (26) is larger than the size of the two photographic papers (21) arranged on the left and right, and immediately before binding the throat side. Alternatively, immediately after binding the throat side, at least one of the top side end, the ground side end, and the edge side end of the core paper (22) is cut off.

  The album (20) according to claim 4 has a core in which a photographic paper (21) on which an image such as a photograph is printed is stuck to a core paper (22), and the photographic paper (21) is stuck. In an album (20) formed by binding a plurality of papers (22), two photographic papers (21) on which the images are printed are arranged on the left and right sides without any gap, and the front surface is a flexible film ( 26) and was folded so that the front surface of the film (26) was on the inner side at the boundary line between the two photographic papers (21) attached to the film (26). A cover sheet (24) is attached to a plurality of folding films (27) with photographic paper, and the core paper (22) is sandwiched between them and the throat side is bound.

  The album (20) according to claim 5 is an album (20) in which a plurality of photographic papers (21) on which images such as photographs are printed are stacked and bound, and the photographic paper (21) on which the images are printed. ) Are arranged side by side with no gap between them, and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film (26), and the two photographic papers (21) are attached to the film (26). Attach the cover (24) to the throat side with a plurality of folded folds (27) with photographic paper folded so that the front surface of the film (26) is on the inside at the boundary line It is characterized by becoming.

  The photographic paper here refers to a paper body on which an image is formed regardless of whether it is for silver salt photography or digital printing.

  Here, the symbols in the parentheses indicate corresponding elements or corresponding matters described in the drawings and the embodiments for carrying out the invention described later.

According to the method for manufacturing an album according to claim 1 or 2, after two photographic papers on which images are printed are arranged side by side without any gaps and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film, The border between the two photographic papers attached to the film is folded so that the front side of the thin film is on the inside, so the photographic papers do not interfere with each other, and the left and right photographic papers become an album There is no gap between each other, that is, in the throat. In other words, since the film is folded so that the photographic paper is on the outside, the photographic paper does not interfere with each other from the time when the two photographic papers are arranged side by side until the film is folded. And there is no gap in the throat.
As described above, since no gap is generated in the throat, the image can be arranged so as to extend across the spread pages, so that the degree of freedom of image layout is increased. Also, the throat doesn't look different from other backgrounds, so it doesn't look bad.

  In addition, since the photographic paper attached to this one film becomes the spread page of the album, the position of the image can be finely adjusted in spread units. That is, it is possible to minimize the vertical displacement between the two photographic papers while preventing a gap from being formed in the throat. Even if the two photographic papers are displaced from each other in the vertical direction, it is only necessary to recreate a single folded film with photographic paper, shortening the time required for remaking and not discarding the entire album. That's it.

  These effects are obtained by bending the front surface of the film so that it is on the inner side and producing a plurality of bent films with photographic paper, as in the first aspect of the invention. Even when a cover is attached to a film in which the core paper is sandwiched between them and the throat side is bound, the front surface of the film is set to the inside as in the invention of claim 2. Even if a plurality of bent films with photographic paper are produced by folding the paper, and then the fold side of the fold side film is overlapped with the core paper sandwiched between them, the cover is attached. Can be obtained as well.

  According to the method for producing an album according to claim 3, in addition to the function and effect of the invention according to claim 1 or 2, the size of the film is larger than the size of two photographic papers arranged on the left and right, Immediately before binding the throat side, or immediately after binding the throat side, at least one of the top edge, the ground edge, and the edge edge of the core paper is cut off. When two sheets of paper are placed side by side without any gaps and the front side is attached to the back side of the flexible film, it is not necessary to attach the edges of the photographic paper so that the edges of the photographic paper are along the edges of the film. Accordingly, the time required for this step can be shortened.

Further, according to the album of claim 4, two photographic papers on which images are printed are arranged on the left and right without any gap, and the front surface is adhered to the back surface of the flexible film, and the film Is folded so that the front surface of the film is on the inner side at the boundary line between the two photographic papers adhered to each other, so that the photographic papers do not interfere with each other, that is, between the left and right photographic papers, that is, There is no gap in the throat.
As described above, since no gap is generated in the throat, the image can be arranged so as to extend across the spread pages, so that the degree of freedom of image layout is increased. Also, the throat doesn't look different from other backgrounds, so it doesn't look bad.
Also, the photographic paper affixed to this one film becomes the double-page spread of the album, so the gap in the top-to-bottom direction between the two spread-sheet photographic papers is minimized while keeping no gap in the throat. can do.

Further, according to the album of claim 5, the two photographic papers on which the images are printed are arranged on the left and right without any gap, and the front surface is adhered to the back surface of the flexible film. Since the film is folded so that the front surface of the film is on the inside at the boundary between the two photographic papers adhered to the photographic paper, the photographic papers do not interfere with each other, that is, the throat There is no gap.
As described above, since no gap is generated in the throat, the image can be arranged so as to extend across the spread pages, so that the degree of freedom of image layout is increased. Also, the throat doesn't look different from other backgrounds, so it doesn't look bad.
Also, the photographic paper affixed to this one film becomes the double-page spread of the album, so the gap in the top-to-bottom direction between the two spread-sheet photographic papers is minimized while keeping no gap in the throat. can do.
In addition, since the cover is attached to the folded side of the folds of the folds of the foldable film with photographic paper, the material cost and the number of manufacturing steps are less than the amount of use of the core paper as compared with the invention of claim 4. Can be reduced.

  In addition, like the album of the present invention and its manufacturing method, two photographic papers on which images are printed are arranged side by side without any gaps, and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film, and then the film is attached to the film. The above-mentioned Patent Document 1 does not describe at all the point at which the boundary line between two attached photographic papers is bent so that the front surface of the film is inside.

It is an enlarged front view which shows the process of sticking a photographic paper to a core paper in the manufacturing method of the album which concerns on a prior art example. It is a front view which shows the process of bend | folding the core paper in which the photographic paper was stuck in the manufacturing method of the album which concerns on a prior art example, and stacking the core paper in multiple numbers. It is a perspective view which shows the album which concerns on a prior art example.

With reference to FIG. 1 thru | or FIG. 5, the album 20 which concerns on embodiment of this invention, and its manufacturing method are demonstrated.
The album 20 is formed by attaching a photographic paper 21 on which an image such as a photograph is attached to a core paper 22 and stacking a plurality of core papers 22 to which the photographic paper 21 is attached. Specifically, it is a small number of personal albums 20 by an on-demand system, such as a wedding anniversary album 20.
1 to 4 are not cross-sectional views, but are hatched so that the photographic paper 21, the film 26, and the core paper 22 can be easily distinguished.

  In the manufacturing method of the album 20 according to the embodiment of the present invention, first, a plurality of 260 mm × 260 mm photographic papers 21 suitable for printing and long-term storage of the printed state are prepared. Then, photographs and characters laid out on a personal computer in advance are printed on the front surface of the photographic paper 21. There may be a case where one or a plurality of photographs are arranged on one photographic paper 21, or a single photograph is arranged so as to straddle a spread page.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 1, two sheets of photographic paper 21 on which an image is printed are arranged side by side without any gap, and the front surface is adhered to the back surface of the flexible film 26. The film 26 is made of transparent PP (polypropylene) resin, and an adhesive is applied to the back surface of the film 26. Here, a so-called cold type laminating process is performed on the photographic paper 21. The size of the film 26 is substantially equal to the size of two photographic papers 21 arranged side by side without any gap. Further, the thickness of the film 26 is thinner than the thickness of the photographic paper 21, and a crease is easily formed when the film 26 is bent.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the boundary line of the two photographic papers 21 adhered to the film 26 is folded so that the front surface of the film 26 is on the inner side, and the foldable film 27 with photographic paper is attached. Is produced. A plurality of foldable films 27 with photographic paper are produced, for example, for one album 20.

After producing a plurality of bent films 27 with photographic paper, next, as shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of core papers 22 having adhesives on both front and back surfaces are prepared. Then, the plurality of folding films 27 with photographic paper are stacked with the core paper 22 sandwiched therebetween, and are adhered so that the folding films 27 with photographic paper and the core paper 22 are alternately arranged.
The core paper 22 is made of rectangular paper, and its size is substantially equal to the size of one sheet of photographic paper 21. Further, the thickness of the core paper 22 is thicker than the thickness of the photographic paper 21.

  Finally, as shown in FIG. 4, the fold side of a plurality of photographic paper-attached folding films 27 and the core paper 22 is bound to form a content, and a cover 24 is attached to the content.

According to the album 20 constructed and manufactured as described above, after two photographic papers 21 on which images are printed are arranged side by side with no gap between them and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film 26 Since the boundary line between the two photographic papers 21 adhered to the film 26 is bent so that the front surface of the thin film 26 is on the inside, the photographic papers 21 do not interfere with each other, as shown in FIG. When the album 20 is reached, there is no gap between the left and right photographic papers 21, that is, in the throat. That is, since the film 26 is folded so that the photographic paper 21 is on the outer side, the photographic papers 21 do not interfere with each other from when the two photographic papers 21 are arranged side by side until the film 26 is folded. They can be arranged without gaps, and no gaps are created in the throat.
As described above, since no gap is generated in the throat, the image can be arranged so as to extend across the spread pages, so that the degree of freedom of image layout is increased. Also, the throat doesn't look different from other backgrounds, so it doesn't look bad.

  In addition, since the photographic paper 21 attached to the one film 26 becomes a spread page of the album 20, fine adjustment of the position of the image can be performed in a spread unit. That is, it is possible to minimize the vertical displacement between the two photographic papers 21 while preventing a gap from being formed in the throat. Even if the two photographic papers 21 are deviated from each other in the vertical direction, it is only necessary to recreate one fold paper 27 with photographic paper, and the time required for remaking can be shortened, and the entire album 20 is discarded. You don't have to.

  In this embodiment, the two photographic papers 21 are arranged on the left and right sides, the photographic paper 21 is attached to the film 26, and then the film 28 with the photographic paper is bent. However, the present invention is not limited to this. As shown in FIG. 6, the two photographic papers 21 of the photographic paper-attached film 28 before being folded may be attached to each of the core papers 22 arranged on the left and right. In this case, after the film 28 with photographic paper is attached to the core paper 22, the three layers of the core paper 22, the photographic paper 21, and the film 26 are bent so that the film 26 is on the inside.

In addition, after a plurality of the foldable film 27 with photographic paper is manufactured, the core paper 22 is sandwiched between the foldable films 27 with the photographic paper, but the present invention is not limited to this. May be stacked with the core paper 22 sandwiched between the foldable film 27 with photographic paper.
That is, after first producing one folding film 27 with photographic paper, the front surface of the core paper 22 is adhered to the back surface of the photographic paper 21 of the folding film 27 with photographic paper. Thereafter, another folding film 27 with photographic paper is produced. Next, the back surface of the photographic paper 21 of the second produced folding film 27 with the photographic paper is laminated and pasted on the back surface of the core paper 22 adhered to the first produced foldable film 27 with photographic paper. To wear. Then, this process is repeated, and the foldable film 27 with photographic paper 27 and the core paper 22 may be stacked until a predetermined number of sheets is reached.

  Alternatively, a plurality of films in which only one core paper 22 is adhered to the foldable film 27 with photographic paper may be manufactured, and then, these may be stacked and bonded together.

The size of the film 26 is substantially the same as the size of the two photographic papers 21 arranged on the left and right, but may be larger than that. In this case, since the edge of the film 26 protrudes to the outside of the photographic paper 21, the top edge, the ground edge, and the edge edge of the core paper 22 immediately before binding the throat or immediately after binding the throat. At least one of the end portions, that is, a portion where the film 26 protrudes may be cut off.
In this way, when two photographic papers 21 on which images are printed are arranged side by side with no gap between them and the front surface is attached to the back surface of the flexible film 26, the edges of the photographic paper 21 are attached to the film 26. Therefore, it is not necessary to attach the film accurately along the edge of the film, and the time required for this process can be shortened accordingly.

  Furthermore, the core paper 22 sandwiched between the two photographic paper-attached folding films 27 is not limited to a single sheet, and may be a plurality.

Further, if the total four layers of the two layers of the photographic paper 21 and the two layers of the film 26 have a predetermined strength, the core paper 22 may not be sandwiched between the two foldable film 27 with a photographic paper. That is, a plurality of folding films 27 with photographic paper are stacked without any interposition, and the back surface of the photographic paper 21 of one folding film 27 with photographic paper and the photographic paper 21 of another folding film 27 with photographic paper. The back surface may be directly attached.
Thus, when the core paper 22 is not used, the material cost and the number of manufacturing steps can be reduced by the amount of the core paper 22 compared to the case where the core paper 22 is used.

Further, although the film 26 is made of PP resin, it may be made of PET resin or PE resin. Moreover, the film 26 of the multilayer structure using 2 or more types among PP resin, PE resin, PET resin, etc. may be sufficient.
In addition, although the laminating process is a cold type, it is not limited to this and may be a hot melt.

Furthermore, although the manufacturing method of the album 20 according to the present embodiment is used in an on-demand system, the number of copies may be large as in offset printing.
The size of the photographic paper 21 is 260 mm × 260 mm, but is not limited to this.
