Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial field of application) The present invention is a calendar that is a sticker attached to a watch lid such as a wrist watch or a table clock, or a screen of a television, and has a decorative effect by hologram. The present invention relates to a seal, and more particularly to a technique for forming a date on a calendar portion by a transfer pattern including a reflection hologram.

(Prior Art) It is known that the calendar itself is made into a seal and is reattached on the lid of the wristwatch, for example, every month. Techniques have been developed to add a hologram decoration effect to such calendar stickers.

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-138050 discloses a technique for processing a transparent hologram on one surface of a film substrate. The processed holgram is invisible when the watch is viewed from directly above, and the time can be read without any obstacle. However, if you change the viewing angle, the hologram part glows in a bluish colour, which allows you to know the date.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) According to the calendar sticker using the transparent hologram described above, the hologram has a decorative effect and the sticker is attractive. However, there are drawbacks in viewability and cost of the calendar part.

First, characters and the like formed by holograms can be seen only from a specific angle, and are difficult to see by themselves. In addition, since the characters on the calendar are usually different depending on the year and month, the hologram has to be changed accordingly. Therefore, an expensive die for hologram processing has to be manufactured every year, resulting in high cost of the calendar seal.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a calendar sticker in which the characters of the calendar are easy to see and can be obtained at a relatively low cost while enhancing the decorativeness by applying the technique using the hologram.

(Outline of the Invention) In this invention, at least a part of the calendar portion is formed by a transfer pattern including a reflection hologram.

The transfer pattern including the reflection hologram can be easily obtained by using a stamping die formed by a general relief printing technique and a ready-made hologram transfer foil. Since the reflection type hologram is opaque, it is clearer than the transparent type hologram and the characters such as the date are easy to see.

Preferably, the weekday of the calendar portion and the other days are distinguished from each other by a transfer pattern including reflection holograms having different reflection wavelengths. This will make the calendar easier to read, and will further enhance the decorative effect.

(Embodiment) See FIG. 1. The calendar seal 100 according to the present invention is used, for example, by affixing it on a glass lid 51 of a wrist watch 50 every month. Therefore, generally, the size of the calendar seal 100 is one size smaller than that of the lid 51, and the shape thereof conforms to the shape of the lid 51 and has, for example, a shape with square corners dropped.

This calendar seal 100 is a transparent film substrate 10
Is based on. The film substrate 10 is, for example, 20 to 100 μm, preferably 20 to 50 μm in consideration of its handling.
The thickness is m. The film substrate 10 is a transparent plastic film having a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 which are parallel to each other. As the film substrate 10, various plastic materials can be used as long as they have sufficient transparency and can be transferred (for example, at 120 ° C. for 0.5 seconds).

A calendar portion 20 is formed on the first surface 11 side of the film substrate 10, that is, on the front side. The calendar portion 20 includes characters such as alphabets and numerals indicating months, days, days of the week, etc., and a handling company name, etc., if necessary.

The calendar portion 20 is obtained by embossing a hologram transfer foil containing a reflection hologram. As a mold used for foil stamping, zinc letterpress, magnesium letterpress,
Use inexpensive materials such as brass letterpress. In transferring the character pattern of the above date, the letterpress type mold has sufficient accuracy. Therefore, an expensive mold used for embossing is not required, and since the hologram transfer foil itself can be selected and used, it can be formed inexpensively and easily.

Here, two kinds of transfer foils are used, one transfer foil forms the first transfer pattern 21 for Sundays, national holidays and company names, and the other transfer foil forms weekday, year, month, etc. The second transfer pattern 22 is formed. The first and second transfer patterns 21 and 22 have different widths, depths, angles, etc. of grooves or irregularities of the holgram, and therefore have different reflection angles or reflection wavelengths. Therefore, the two transfer patterns 21 and 22 have different colors from the viewer. Of course, both of the transfer patterns 21 and 22 are opaque because they have an aluminum reflective layer having a thickness of, for example, several hundred liters. Therefore, the film substrate
It is an obstacle to seeing the dial of the wristwatch 50 under 10. However, the area ratio of the pattern of the calendar portion 20 is, for example, 10
Since it is as small as about%, the obstacle is not a problem.

On the other hand, on the other second surface 12 side of the film base material 10 having the calendar portion 20, an adhesive layer 30 for sticking a seal, and a release paper 40 is placed thereon. The adhesive layer 30 preferably has both adhesiveness and releasability, and a layer made of a pressure sensitive adhesive is most suitable. When using the calendar sticker 100, peel off the release paper 40, stick the sticker on the lid 51 of the wristwatch 50 with the adhesive layer 30, and when replacing the sticker for the next month, remove the sticker and replace it with a new sticker. Good.

(First Modification) ... See FIG. 2. In the embodiment of FIG. 1, weekdays and other days are formed by two kinds of transfer patterns 21 and 22 having different reflection wavelengths. Therefore, two kinds of hologram transfer foils are required, and usually two transfer processes are required. Therefore, in the first modified example, one type of transfer foil is used and the transfer process is performed once. In order to do so, a solid printing layer of red, pink or the like, which is slightly larger than the transfer pattern 21 ', is formed below the transfer pattern 21' corresponding to the first transfer pattern 21.
I am going to set 23. As the material of the printing layer 23,
Use an ink that has high resistance to transfer processing, such as UV ink.

(Second Modification) ... See FIG. 3. The transfer pattern 21 ″ corresponding to the first transfer pattern 21 can be formed by a layer not containing a hologram, for example, a printing layer or a metal transfer foil. Of course, in this example, the second transfer pattern 22 having the larger area ratio of the pattern is formed by the transfer pattern including the reflection hologram as in the first embodiment, so that the decoration effect by the hologram is obtained. obtain.

(Effect of the Invention) In the present invention, since at least a part of the calendar portion is formed by the transfer pattern including the reflection hologram, it is possible to obtain an inexpensive calendar sticker in which the date and the like can be easily seen. In particular, when weekdays of the calendar portion and other days are distinguished from each other by a transfer pattern including reflection holograms having different reflection wavelengths from each other, a calendar seal having a sufficient decorative effect and a more easily visible calendar seal can be obtained.

The calendar sticker of the present invention is particularly useful as a sticker to be put on the lid of a watch such as a wrist watch and a table clock, but it can also be used as a sticker to put on a corner of a TV screen or a surface of a telephone. it can.

Although not included in the scope of claims for utility model registration, the technology of the present invention can be applied to form a display sticker on a transparent glass surface such as an automatic door in addition to a calendar sticker.
