Description

  The present invention relates to a labeled article in which an adhesive label is attached to the surface of the article.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, labeled articles having labels attached to the surface of the articles have been widely distributed.
The label may be attached to the article through an adhesive such as a water-based adhesive or a heat-sensitive adhesive so as not to be peeled off from the article. It may be pasted through.
A label attached via an adhesive is generally called an adhesive label or a tack label, and is used for various purposes.
As adhesive labels according to purpose, for example, general-purpose adhesive labels for displaying the date of manufacture of goods or product names, campaign labels for use as prize application tickets (Patent Document 1), and There are known POP labels (also called eye catch labels) that are easily noticeable to consumers and increase advertising effectiveness.

By the way, in recent years, a large number of containers having an uneven surface such as a crystal cut pattern (for example, an aluminum can containing a shochu having a diamond-cut uneven surface formed thereon) are in circulation.
On the surface of such a container, a smooth surface is usually formed continuously with the uneven surface, but the uneven surface occupies a large area.
When an adhesive label is stuck on the uneven surface of such a container, the adhesive layer of the adhesive label does not come into contact with the concave portion of the uneven surface, so that there is a problem in that the adhesive label is easily peeled off during the distribution process. On the other hand, if an adhesive label is stuck on the smooth surface of the container, the adhesive label does not peel off as described above.
However, for a container having a small smooth surface area, the entire pressure-sensitive adhesive label may not be attached to the smooth surface due to the label attachment position and limited space.

In such a case, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label is stuck across the uneven surface and the smooth surface.
However, when the adhesive label was applied across the uneven surface and the smooth surface, the area of the adhesive label attached to the uneven surface was peeled off from the uneven surface in the distribution process, and was applied to the smooth surface following that. There is a problem that the adhesive label area gradually peels off the smooth surface from the edge, and eventually the adhesive label falls off.

[Adhesive label]
FIG. 1 thru | or FIG. 3 shows the adhesive label 2 used for the labeled article of this invention.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 has a label base material 3 and a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 provided on the back surface of the label base material 3.

  In order to prevent the adhesive label 2 from falling off, edges 5a and 2b of the adhesive label 2 (substantially the same for the label base material 3) are formed with cut portions 5. The cut portion 5 is provided at two locations on the two opposing edges 2a and 2b (hereinafter referred to as the first edge 2a and the second edge 2b) of the adhesive label 2, respectively.

When the adhesive label 2 is divided into two regions on the basis of an imaginary line X connecting the start end portions 5a of the two cut portions 5, one region 21 (first region) is adhered to the smooth surface of the article. The other region 22 (second region) is a portion to be attached to the uneven surface of the article. The thickness of the second region 22 is made thinner than the thickness of the first region 21.
In FIG. 1, the virtual line X is indicated by a one-dot chain line.

The planar view shape of the adhesive label 2 is not particularly limited. In the illustrated example, the adhesive label 2 is formed in a substantially rectangular shape in plan view. However, the planar view shape of the adhesive label 2 may be a polygonal shape such as a substantially triangular shape, a substantially circular shape, or a substantially elliptical shape.
The magnitude | size of the adhesive label 2 is not specifically limited, It can design suitably. For example, the size of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 having a substantially rectangular shape in plan view is about 10 mm to 40 mm × 10 mm to 40 mm in length × width. The size of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 having a shape in plan view other than the rectangular shape is, for example, formed in the same area as the rectangular area.

In the label substrate 3 in the present embodiment, at least the first region 21 is composed of a plurality of substrates in order to make the first region 21 thicker than the second region 22. In addition, when the 2nd area | region 22 is also comprised from a several base material, what is necessary is just to make the number of base materials of the 1st area | region 21 larger than the number of base materials of the 2nd area | region 22.
In the illustrated label base material 3, the first region 21 is composed of two layers of base materials 31 and 32, and the second region 22 is composed of one layer of base material 32. Hereinafter, the first base material 31 and the second base material 32 are referred to in order to distinguish two layers of base materials.

The first base material 31 is formed in a shape that is substantially the same as or smaller than the first region 21 that is a portion that is adhered to the smooth surface of the article, and an imaginary line X that connects the two cut portions 5. Are stacked on one region 21 of the second base material 32.
Therefore, the label base material in the first region 21 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 includes the first base material 31 and the second base material 32, and the label base material in the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is only the second base material 32. Consists of.

The 1st base material 31 and the 2nd base material 32 will not be specifically limited if it is a flexible sheet | seat which has the mechanical strength as a label, A well-known thing can be used.
Examples of the first base material 31 and the second base material 32 include paper, non-woven fabric, synthetic paper, and a synthetic resin film. Each of the first base material 31 and the second base material 32 may be a single sheet, or may be a laminate in which two or more sheets are integrally bonded so as not to peel off. When the 1st base material 31 and the 2nd base material 32 are laminated bodies, the laminated body by which two or more chosen from paper, a nonwoven fabric, a synthetic paper, a synthetic resin film, and functional sheets other than these were laminated | stacked. Can be used.
In particular, a laminate including a single layer of synthetic paper or a synthetic resin film or a synthetic paper or synthetic resin film is preferred because of its excellent mechanical strength and flexibility.

As the synthetic paper, for example, the product name “Yupo” of Yupo Corporation, the product name “Chrisper” of Toyobo Co., Ltd. and the like can be used.
Examples of synthetic resin films include thermoplastic resins such as ester resins such as polyethylene terephthalate, olefin resins such as polypropylene, styrene resins such as styrene-butadiene copolymers, cyclic olefin resins, and vinyl chloride resins. The biaxially stretched film etc. can be used, and since it is excellent in mechanical strength especially, it is preferable to use these biaxially stretched films.

  The first base material 31 and the second base material 32 may be a transparent sheet or an opaque sheet. However, since the design applied to the second substrate 32 and the design applied to the back surface of the first substrate 31 can be concealed, the first substrate 31 is preferably an opaque sheet. Specifically, the first base material 31 is an opaque sheet such as synthetic paper.

  Although the thickness of the 1st base material 31 and the 2nd base material 32 is not specifically limited, Generally, they are 30 micrometers-100 micrometers, respectively.

A desired design may be printed on the first base material 31 and the second base material 32 as necessary. The printed layer of the design is not shown.
When the design is applied to the first base material 31, printing is performed on at least one of the back surface and the front surface of the first base material 31, and preferably on both the front surface and the back surface of the first base material 31. Printing is performed. If printing is performed on both the front and back surfaces of the first base material 31, the design applied to the surface of the first base material 31 in a state where the first base material 31 is adhered to the second base material 32. Can be shown to the consumer, and after the first base material 31 is peeled off from the second base material 32, the design applied to the back surface of the first base material 31 can be shown to the consumer. Therefore, the first base material 31 can be used as a campaign label by printing prize application information, bag information, and the like on the back surface of the first base material 31.

  On the other hand, when the design is applied to the second base material 32, the surface of the second base material 32 is printed. When the second substrate 32 is transparent, printing may be performed on the back surface of the second substrate 32.

The first edge portion 2a and the second edge portion 2b of the adhesive label 2 are provided with cut portions 5 and 5, respectively. In the case of this embodiment, the cut portion 5 is formed in the second base material 32.
By forming the cut portions 5, corner portions 211 and 211 are formed on the first edge 2a side and the second edge 2b side of the first region 21, respectively.

  Each of the notches 5 and 5 extends in the in-plane direction of the adhesive label 2 (second base material 32). Specifically, each of the incisions 5, 5 has a start end 5 a located at the first edge 2 a and the second edge 2 b, and a tip 5 b located within the surface of the adhesive label 2. The space between the start end portion 5a and the tip end portion 5b is continuously cut. It is preferable to cut in a straight line between the start end 5a and the tip 5b, but it may be cut in an arc or the like.

  Each of the notches 5 and 5 extends in a direction substantially orthogonal to the extending direction of the first edge 2a and the second edge 2b. Moreover, each notch part 5 and 5 is extended in the same direction. The cut portions 5 and 5 are formed so as to overlap the other cut portion 5 when the virtual line X is drawn from one cut portion 5 in the extending direction.

Each of the cut portions 5 and 5 may be a linear cut or a cut having a predetermined width (punched cut). The cut having a predetermined width is different from the linear cut having substantially no width, and can be said to be a non-linear cut.
Preferably, as shown in the drawing, each of the cut portions 5 and 5 is formed of a cut having a predetermined width, and the tip portion 5b of the cut is formed in a semicircular arc shape.

The width W of the cut portion 5 made of a cut having a predetermined width is not particularly limited, but if the width W is too small, the cut is not substantially different from the linear cut, and if the width W is too large, The area of the adhesive label 2 becomes relatively small. From such a point, the width W of the cut portion 5 is preferably 1 mm to 5 mm, and more preferably 1 mm to 3 mm.
Further, the extension length L of the cut portion 5 is not particularly limited, but if the length L is too small, there is a possibility that the effect of preventing the peeling of the adhesive label 2 may not be sufficiently achieved, and the length L is too large. In addition, the appearance of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is impaired, and it becomes difficult to handle when the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is attached to an article. From such a point, the extending length L of the cut portion 5 is preferably 2 mm to 10 mm, and more preferably 3 mm to 8 mm.

On the back surface of the second base material 32, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 is provided in a solid shape.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 is an agent that adheres to the surface of an article, and can be peeled off from the article after bonding and can be reapplied after peeling, or it can not be reapplied after peeling from the article. But you can.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 can be formed by applying a solid pressure-sensitive adhesive on the back surface of the second base material 32.
As the adhesive, for example, an acrylic or rubber pressure sensitive adhesive can be used. A pressure-sensitive adhesive is an adhesive that has adhesiveness at room temperature and adheres to an article by pressurization, and can be re-applied after peeling from the article.

In addition, it is also possible to use a heat sensitive adhesive as the said adhesive. The heat-sensitive adhesive is an adhesive that does not exhibit adhesiveness at room temperature and exhibits adhesiveness when heated. When the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 is made of a pressure-sensitive pressure-sensitive adhesive, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is provided by being temporarily attached to a release paper, but when the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 is made of a heat-sensitive pressure-sensitive adhesive, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 2 is pressure-sensitive. The label 2 is provided without being temporarily attached onto the release paper.
The pressure-sensitive adhesive may be either transparent or opaque, but it is preferable to use a transparent one.
The thickness of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 is not particularly limited, and is usually 15 μm to 30 μm.

Furthermore, an adhesive layer 6 is provided on the back surface of the first base material 31. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6 can be formed using the same pressure-sensitive adhesive as the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4.
The first base material 31 is attached to the second base material 32 via the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6. The first substrate 32 can be peeled from the second substrate with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6. If necessary, a known release agent is applied to the surface of the first base material 31 so that the first base material 31 can be easily peeled off from the second base material 32 together with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6.

  Instead of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 6, a weak adhesive layer for weakly attaching the first base material 31 to the second base material 32 may be provided on the back surface of the first base material 31. This weak adhesive layer has a lower adhesive force than the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4. By attaching the first base material 31 to the second base material 32 through the weak adhesive layer, the first base material 31 can be easily peeled off from the second base material 32. The weak adhesive layer can be formed, for example, by applying a hot melt pressure-sensitive adhesive containing a release agent such as a silicone resin to the back surface of the first base material 31. In addition, the weak adhesive layer can be formed, for example, by applying a pressure-sensitive adhesive to the back surface of the first base material 31 and applying a masking agent for weakening the adhesive force from above the pressure-sensitive adhesive.

[Goods]
4 to 6 show an article 7 used for the labeled article of the present invention.
A smooth surface 71 and an uneven surface 72 are continuously formed on the surface of the article 7.
The uneven surface 72 occupies a predetermined area on the surface of the article, and the uneven surface 72 protrudes outward from the smooth surface 71, and is closer to the inside (center axis direction) of the container than the protrusion 721. And a recessed portion 722 that is recessed. For example, when the article 7 is a metal can, the concavo-convex surface 72 can be formed by extruding a planned formation portion of the convex portion 721 on the peripheral surface of the can from the inside to the outside.

  The uneven surface 72 in the illustrated example has a plurality of regular units each having a predetermined convex portion 721 and concave portion 722 as one unit. But the uneven surface 72 may be formed from the several unit which consists of the different convex part 721 and the recessed part 722. FIG.

The proportion of the surface of the convex portion 721 in the uneven surface 72 (see the following formula) is more than 0% and 70% or less, preferably 1% to 60%, more preferably 2% to 50%. The reason why the lower limit of the ratio is “exceeding 0%” is that it is possible to form a convex portion 721 having a very small vertex, and the surface of such a convex portion 721 occupies the surface. This is because the ratio may approach 0% as much as possible from the entire uneven surface 72.
Ratio (%) occupied by the surface of the convex portion 721 in the concave / convex surface 72 = (sum of the surface areas of the convex portions 721 in the concave / convex surface 72 covered by the adhered adhesive label 2 / area of the concave / convex surface 72) × 100.

On the other hand, the smooth surface 71 is not particularly limited as long as it is a smooth surface, and may be a two-dimensional plane or a curved surface.
The smooth surface 71 is preferably a surface such that the entire first region 21 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is in close contact with the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4. However, in the actual article 7, there is a surface that is almost smooth but has a dent that does not adhere to the back surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is adhered to such a surface. However, the problem that the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 peels off during the distribution process does not actually occur.
For this reason, the smooth surface 71 according to the present invention may partially have the dent.

The ratio (refer to following formula) which the said dent accounts in the smooth surface 71 is 10% or less, Preferably it is 5% or less.
Ratio (%) of recesses in smooth surface 71 = (sum of areas occupied by recesses in smooth surface 71 covered by adhered adhesive label 2 / area of smooth surface 71) × 100.

In the present embodiment, a beverage-containing container is illustrated as the article 7.
This container is, for example, an aluminum can formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and an uneven surface 72 and a smooth surface 71 are formed on the surface thereof.

The concave portion 722 is recessed from the convex portion 721, and the deepest portion of the concave portion 722 may be either inside the level of the smooth surface 71, the same as this level, or outside this level. The recess 722 is recessed in a diamond cut shape (regular quadrangular pyramid recess). In contrast to the diamond-cut concave portion 722, the convex portion 721 has a substantially rectangular line shape (such as a square shape) when viewed from the front.
The smooth surface 71 of the cylindrical container as shown in the figure is a surface that is entirely smooth and curved.

[Article with label]
7 and 8 show the labeled article 1 of the present invention.
In this labeled article 1, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is stuck across the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 of the article 7 via the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4.
The adhesive label 2 is positioned on the article 7 so that the start end 5a of the cut portion 5 corresponds to the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 of the article 7 or the vicinity of the boundary line Y. It is worn.
In FIG. 7, the boundary line Y is indicated by a one-dot chain line, and in FIG. 8 (and FIG. 6), the position of the boundary line Y is indicated by an arrow.

Here, the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 is an ideal virtual line. In the present embodiment, the boundary line Y is an imaginary straight line connecting the ends of the plurality of recesses 722 adjacent to the smooth surface 71.
In the present embodiment, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is adhered so that the cut portion 5 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 corresponds to the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71. Accordingly, the first region 21 (including the corner portions 211 and 211) of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is attached to the smooth surface 71, and the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is attached to the uneven surface 72.

  Moreover, in the adhesive label 2 of this embodiment, since each notch part 5 and 5 is formed so that it may overlap on the virtual line X, this adhesive label 2 was affixed on the article | item 7 as mentioned above. Sometimes, the cut portions 5 and 5 extend in a direction parallel to the boundary line Y.

Since the convex portion 721 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 are in close contact with each other on the concave-convex surface 72, the contact area ratio of the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 to the concave-convex surface 72 (see the following equation) This substantially corresponds to the proportion of the surface of the convex portion 721 in the surface 72. However, since the adhesive label 2 is flexible, the adhesive label 2 may be in close contact from the surface of the convex portion 721 to the periphery thereof. For these reasons, the adhesion area ratio (see the following formula) of the second region 22 of the adhesive label 2 to the uneven surface 72 is more than 0% and not more than about 75%, preferably about 1% to about 65%. More preferably from about 2% to about 55%.
Adhesive area ratio (%) of the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 to the concave / convex surface 72 = (sum of surface areas of the convex portions 721 / area of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 covered by the concave / convex surface 72) × 100.

  On the other hand, on the smooth surface 71, the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 4 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is in close contact. But in the smooth surface 71 which has a dent in a part, the contact | adherence area ratio with respect to the smooth surface 71 of the 1st area | region 21 of the adhesive label 2 respond | corresponds to the ratio which the dent in the said smooth surface 71 occupies, 90 % Or more, preferably 95% or more.

In the labeled article 1, the adhesive label 2 is stuck across the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 of the article 7, and the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 or in the vicinity of the boundary line Y. A cut portion 5 is formed at the edge of the corresponding adhesive label 2.
In the distribution process of the labeled article 1, the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 attached to the uneven surface 72 has a small contact area, and thus is easily peeled off from the uneven surface 72. Then, the peeling force when the second region 22 is peeled off also propagates to the first region 21 integrally connected to the second region 22, but there is a notch 5 between them, The peeling force acts on the tip portion 5 b of the cut portion 5. Therefore, the peeling force is unlikely to act on the corner portion 211 of the first region 21, and the first region 21 can be prevented from peeling off following the second region 22.

  That is, the peeling of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 does not occur from within the surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2, but occurs from the edge of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2. The peeling force hardly acts on the edge (corner portion 211) of the one region 21. For this reason, even if the 2nd area | region 22 of the adhesive label 2 peeled from the article | item 7, the 1st area | region 21 stuck to the smooth surface 71 of the article | item 7 does not peel, Therefore, dropping-off of the adhesive label 2 can be prevented. .

Moreover, since the front-end | tip part 5b of the said notch part 5 is formed in the semicircular arc shape, it can prevent that the adhesive label 2 tears in the surface direction of the adhesive label 2 from the front-end | tip part 5b.
For example, even if the second region 22 that has been peeled off from the uneven surface 72 and caught up by a foreign object, a tear that separates the first region 21 and the second region 22 can be prevented from occurring in the adhesive label 2.

  Moreover, since the thickness of the 2nd area | region 22 is thinner than the thickness of the 1st area | region 21 (for example, the 2nd area | region 22 consists of a 1 layer base material (2nd base material 32), and the said adhesive label 2 is 1st area | region). 21 has a two-layer base material (the first base material 31 and the second base material 32), and the second region 22 has a lower rigidity. According to the second region 22 having low rigidity, the second region 22 is bent flexibly along the curved uneven surface 72 and closely contacts the surface of the convex portion 721. Therefore, even if an impact is applied to the labeled article 1 during the distribution process, The two regions 22 are unlikely to peel off from the convex portion 721.

[Other Embodiments]
The labeled article of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be changed to various modes within the scope of the present invention. Hereinafter, although other embodiment of the labeled article of this invention is described, the description is abbreviate | omitted about the structure and effect similar to the said embodiment, and a term and a code | symbol may be used as it is.

In the said embodiment, although the notch part 5 of the adhesive label 2 is a notch which has predetermined width, and the front-end | tip part 5b is formed in arc shape, the front-end | tip part 5b of the notch part 5 is formed in arc shape. It is not limited to the case.
Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the notch part 5 of the adhesive label 2 illustrated the notch which has a predetermined width, the notch part 5 may be a linear notch as shown, for example in FIG.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the two notch parts 5 and 5 are extended in the direction substantially orthogonal to the direction where the 1st edge part 2a and the 2nd edge part 2b are extended, the notch part 5 is a label. However, the present invention is not limited to this as long as it extends in the in-plane direction. For example, the cut portion 5 may extend in a direction inclined with respect to the edge portion of the adhesive label 2. In this case, the cut portion 5 may extend while being inclined upward with respect to the edge portion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2, or may be extended while being inclined downward. Since the adhesive label 2 can be prevented from falling off, the cut portion 5 is preferably formed to extend in a direction inclined upward with respect to the edge portion of the adhesive label 2 as shown in FIG. In addition, the adhesive label 2 of FIG. 10 is not shown even if the 1st base material 31 is not laminated | stacked or it is laminated | stacked.

  The adhesive label 2 in FIG. 10 is formed with respective incisions 5 and 5 inclined upward from the first edge 2a and the second edge 2b. As for the cut portions 5 and 5 that are inclined in this way, the start end portion 5a of the cut portion 5 in the first edge portion 2a and the start end portion 5a of the cut portion 5 in the second edge portion 2b are the same as the first edge portion 2a. It is preferable to be located on the orthogonal virtual line X.

In the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 having the inclined cut portions 5 and 5, the start end portion 5a of the cut portion 5 is the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 of the article 7 or the boundary line thereof, as in the above embodiment. Positioned so as to correspond to the vicinity of Y, it is attached to the article 7.
As shown in FIG. 11, the labeled article 1 in which the adhesive label 2 is adhered to the article 7 corresponds to the boundary line Y or the vicinity of the boundary line Y, as shown in FIG. The cut portion 5 is inclined with respect to the boundary line Y and extends toward the smooth surface 71 of the article 7.

In addition, in FIG. 11, the labeled | labeled goods 1 to which the adhesive label 2 was affixed so that the starting end part 5a of the notch part 5 respond | corresponds on the boundary line Y are illustrated. In this case, the front end portion 5 b of the cut portion 5 overlaps the smooth surface 71.
When the cut portion 5 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 attached to the article 7 thus extends toward the smooth surface 71 with respect to the boundary line Y, the peeling force hardly acts on the corner portion 211 of the first region 21. It is possible to prevent the adhesive label 2 from falling off.

  Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the labeled | labeled goods 1 to which the adhesive label 2 was affixed so that the starting end part 5a of the notch part 5 might correspond on the boundary line Y of the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71 were mentioned above, As described above, the adhesive label 2 may be attached so that the start end portion 5a of the cut portion 5 corresponds to the vicinity of the boundary line Y between the uneven surface 72 and the smooth surface 71.

  In this case, when the adhesive label 2 is attached so that the cut portion 5 is in the vicinity of the boundary line Y and located on the smooth surface 71 side, and the cut portion 5 is in the vicinity of the boundary line Y, There are two patterns when the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is attached so as to be positioned on the uneven surface 72 side. Preferably, as shown in FIG. 12, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is attached to the article 7 so that the cut portion 5 is located near the boundary line Y and on the smooth surface 71 side. In FIG. 12, the boundary line Y is indicated by a one-dot chain line.

When the adhesive label 2 is attached so that the starting end portion 5a of the cut portion 5 is in the vicinity of the boundary line Y and located on the uneven surface 72 side, the corner portions 211 and 211 of the first region 21 of the adhesive label 2 are attached. Covers the concave / convex surface 72, so that when the second region 22 of the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is peeled off, the corner portions 211 and 211 of the first region 21 are also peeled off from the surface of the article 7 so as to adhere the first region 21. This is because wearing may be unstable.
In the vicinity of the boundary line Y, for example, a position where the distance between the start end 5a of the cut portion 5 and the boundary line Y is 3 mm or less, preferably a position where it is 2 mm or less can be exemplified.

Furthermore, in the said embodiment, although the adhesive label 2 is affixed on the articles | goods 7 of the uneven surface 72 which has the convex part 721 protruded outside the smooth surface 71, it is not limited to this.
For example, the article 7 shown in FIG. 13 and FIG. 14 is recessed on the inner side (center axis direction) of the smooth surface 71, the convex portion 721 at the same height (level) as the smooth surface 71, and the convex portion 721. And an uneven surface 72 having a recess 722. For example, when the article 7 is a metal can, the uneven surface 72 can be formed by pushing a portion where the recess 722 is to be formed on the peripheral surface of the can from the outside to the inside.

  Even if the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 is adhered to the article 7 having the smooth surface 71 and the uneven surface 72 in the same manner as in the above embodiment, the labeled article 1 of the present invention is obtained.

  In the said embodiment, the adhesive label 2 has the 1st base material 31 and the 2nd base material 32, and the 1st base material 31 is one area | region (1st area | region 21 of the adhesive label 2) of the 2nd base material 32. Although the label base material 3 laminated | stacked so that peeling is possible is used, it is not limited to this, The 1st base material 31 is formed in the substantially same shape as the 2nd base material 32, and the 2nd base material 32 It may be laminated so as to be peelable over the entire surface.

Furthermore, the pressure-sensitive adhesive label 2 used in the present invention is not limited to the case where the label base material 3 in which the first base material 31 is detachably laminated on the second base material 32 as in the above embodiment, It can also be formed using a single-layer label base material 3.
But the adhesive label 2 formed using the label base material 3 by which the 1st base material 31 was laminated | stacked on the 2nd base material 32 so that peeling was possible like the said embodiment, the 1st base material 31 is a campaign label. Since it can utilize as, it is preferable.

Moreover, in the said embodiment, although the aluminum can containing a drink was illustrated as the article | item 7 to which the adhesive label 2 is affixed, as long as the article | item 7 has the smooth surface 71 and the uneven surface 72 formed continuously, There is no particular limitation.
In the present invention, the article 7 may be various containers having a smooth surface and an uneven surface, such as a synthetic resin molded container such as a so-called PET bottle, a glass container, a ceramic container, a metal container, and a paper packaging box. Alternatively, the product itself such as a toy may be used.
In particular, when the smooth surface 71 and the uneven surface 72 to which the adhesive label 2 is attached are attached to the article 7 made of synthetic resin, glass, earthenware, or metal, the adhesive label 2 of the present invention is used. The effect of the invention is more remarkable.
