Description

The present invention relates to a sewn tag.

When selling innerwear such as stockings and other clothing over the counter, the clothing itself or packaging should have a tag with a shape represented by an approximately square shape that contains information such as the product name, logo, manufacturer name, size, and fabric. It is generally sold by sewing it into a bag and attaching it.

Consumers refer to the information on the tags when purchasing products at stores, but it is assumed that the tags attached to clothing or packaging bags will be removed when they are taken home and worn.

As a method of removing the tag sewn into the product, there are a method of inserting scissors into the seam of the thread and cutting the thread to remove it, and a method of tearing off the tag and removing it. Further, for example, in Patent Document 1, when a label containing product information or the like is attached to clothing with sewing thread, a drawing thread is extended by a predetermined length from a sewing end position or a sewing start position, and when the label is removed, the label is described. A configuration is disclosed in which the label is removed from clothing by pulling and pulling out the drawing thread.

Patent No. 4580329

In Patent Document 1, when the extracted thread is picked and pulled, a sewing method in which the thread tension is small is adopted so that the thread tension can be removed while untangling the needle thread and the bobbin thread with a relatively small tensile force. A special sewing method for this is disclosed. However, the introduction of a special sewing method for attaching the tag leads to an increase in manufacturing cost.

Also, if you use scissors to cut the sewing thread as another method, you may inconvenience the possibility of accidentally damaging the garment or having to insert scissors in several seams. .. Also, even when tearing the tag, it is not possible to know where to tear the tag, and there is a possibility that the force will not be applied, or conversely, the force will be applied too much and damage the clothing.

Therefore, in the present invention, by devising the shape of the tag and the place where the thread is sewn without changing the existing sewing specifications at the factory, it can be easily and smoothly removed by anyone at the lowest possible cost. The purpose is to provide a sewn tag that can be sewn.

In order to solve the above problem, one of the typical sewn tags of the present invention has a main body portion, a head portion and a constricted portion, and the constricted portion is located between the main body portion and the head portion. It is characterized by being located.

According to the present invention, by devising the shape of the tag and the place where the thread is sewn without changing the existing sewing specifications at the factory, the tag can be easily and smoothly made by anyone at the lowest possible cost. Can be removed.
Issues, configurations and effects other than those mentioned above will be clarified by the description in the embodiments for carrying out the following.

FIG. 1A is a plan view in which the tag 100 is sewn into the garment 101 with the mounting sewing thread 107. FIG. 1B is an enlarged view of the tag 100 near the mounting sewing thread 107. FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an operation of removing the sewing tag with a finger. FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a sewn tag according to a modified example of the embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a plan view of the sewn tag of the conventional example.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to this embodiment. Further, in the description of the drawings, the same parts are indicated by the same reference numerals.

In the present disclosure, in order to indicate the direction, the directions indicated by the X-axis and the Y-axis shown on the drawing may be used. A figure on the XY plane is sometimes called a plan view.
In the present disclosure, the direction in which the mounting sewing thread extends linearly is referred to as the X direction, the positive direction in the X direction when viewed from the side where the tag is visually recognized is referred to as the right, and the negative direction is referred to as the left. The positive direction in the Y direction is called up, and the negative direction is called down.
In the present disclosure, the "sewn tag" may be simply referred to as a "tag". "Clothing" includes not only clothing itself, but also a packaging bag for storing clothing. The overall shape of the tag is typically a substantially quadrangle, but is not necessarily limited to a quadrangle, and may be another polygon, a substantially circular shape, or a substantially elliptical shape.
Further, in the present disclosure, the "main body portion" is a portion that is in contact with one end of the tag and occupies a majority area of the tag. Further, the "head" is a portion that is in contact with one end of the tag and occupies a smaller area than the main body portion. Further, the "necked portion" means a portion located between the "main body portion" and the "head" and narrower than the "main body portion" and the "head".

[Conventional example]
FIG. 4 is a plan view of the sewn tag of the conventional example. The tag 110 has a substantially quadrangular shape, and is sewn and attached to the garment 101 with a mounting sewing thread 107 extending linearly in the X direction in the XY plane. Normally, the position where the attachment sewing thread 107 is sewn into the garment 101 is a position close to one end of the quadrangular tag, and the sewn position is provided along the short side of the quadrangular shape. Therefore, the tag 110 is divided into a main body portion 102 and a margin portion 106 with the mounting sewing thread 107 as a boundary.

The left thread end point 108 is located at the left end of the mounting sewing thread 107 when viewed from the surface of the tag 110, and the right thread end point 109 is located at the right end. The thread may be sewn at either the left thread end point 108 or the right thread end point 109.

Further, the left tag end point 104 is located at the left end of the tag 110 when viewed from the surface of the tag 110, and the right tag end point 105 is located at the right end of the tag 110 on the line through which the mounting sewing thread 107 passes.

The main body 102, which occupies a majority area of the tag, contains information about the product, a manufacturer name, a logo, and other information such as wording for promotion. The appearance of the information is arbitrary, and the presence or absence of the information itself does not affect the gist of the present invention.

The margin portion 106 is a margin after the tag 100 is attached by the mounting sewing thread 107. Since as much information as possible is to be written in the main body 102, the main body 102 occupies most of the tag 110, and the margin 106 tends to be designed to be narrow.

When a consumer who has purchased clothing 101 removes the tag 110 from clothing 101, in the conventional example, the removal method is not clear at a glance, and it is often cut with scissors or the tag is torn off. When the margin 106 is picked and pulled without knowing whether to tear it, there is a problem that it is narrow and difficult to pick, or it is difficult to apply force. Further, even if the main body portion 102 is picked and pulled, there is a possibility that the margin portion 106 does not have enough space to be pressed by a finger, or if the main body portion 102 is pulled without pressing, the clothing together with the thread may be damaged.

[Embodiment]
FIG. 1A is a plan view in which the tag 100 is sewn into the garment 101 with the mounting sewing thread 107. FIG. 1B is an enlarged view of the tag 100 near the mounting sewing thread 107. In the following description, components that are the same as or equivalent to those of the above-mentioned conventional examples are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be simplified or omitted.

In the present embodiment, the configuration of the tag 100 other than the main body 102 is different from the conventional example of FIG. That is, on the upper side of the main body 102, a constricted portion 202 having a substantially vertical center and a constant width in the vertical direction is continuously connected, and a head 201 is continuously connected on the constricted portion 202. Take the configuration.

The constricted portion 202 is formed in a shape that is recessed inside the tag 100, and has a curved constricted shape 203 on the left and right where the left tag end point 104 and the right tag end point 105 are the maximum cut points. Therefore, the upper left and right corners of the main body 102 protrude like a human shoulder, and the constricted portion 202 is connected like a human neck. However, the constriction shape 203 may be formed on only one of the left and right sides. It should be noted that the portion of the constricted shape 203 where the notch is maximized does not necessarily have to coincide with the left tag end point 104 or the right tag end point.

The constriction shape 203 is not limited to a curved shape, and has a shape such as a triangular notch or a rectangular notch where stress tends to concentrate when a force is applied from the left or right of the constriction. Is desirable and can take any shape.

The head 201 is continuously connected on the constricted portion 202. The shape of the head 201 is preferably a horizontally long shape in which the length in the X direction is longer than that in the Y direction, and any shape such as a rectangle, an ellipse, or a heart shape may be taken as long as it is at least a shape that can be picked up by the pad of a finger. Can be done. However, it does not have to be symmetrical.

The size of the head 201 is smaller than that of the main body 102, and is formed to be at least large enough to be picked up by the pad of a finger. The maximum length of the head 201 in the X direction is preferably shorter than the length of the portion of the main body 102 in contact with the constricted portion 202, but it may be the same or longer.

The size of the tag 100 may be formed to any size depending on the size of the clothing 101, the amount of information described in the main body 102, and the like. As an example, the horizontally long rectangular head 201 has a length of 2 to 7 cm in the X direction, a length of 0.5 to 2 cm in the Y direction, and a length of the constricted portion 203 in the X direction of 2 to 6.5 cm. Several tags 100 having a length in the Y direction of 0.8 to 1.5 cm and a length of the portion of the main body 102 in contact with the constricted portion in the X direction of 4 to 10 cm and having a value in the range of 230 g to 250 g. I made a prototype.

It is preferable that the color of the constricted portion 202 is different from that of the main body portion 102 or the head portion 201. Further, a color shape that recognizes the directionality from left to right or right to left, such as an arrow shape, can be formed in the constricted portion 202.

Further, the head 201 may describe how to remove the tag 100 with characters, symbols, or the like.

<Action / effect>
In the present embodiment, for example, when the left side of the head 201 is pinched and pulled with the pad of a finger, the constricted portion is provided, so that the attachment sewing thread 107 starts to break from the vicinity of the left tag end point 104 and extends substantially linearly. Along the direction, the head 201 can be torn off together with a part of the constriction 202.

That is, when the fracture occurs, the stress is concentrated on the left tag end point 104 where the constriction shape 203 and the mounting sewing thread 107 intersect, so that the fracture can be performed more easily than in the conventional configuration without the constriction.

Further, in the conventional example, since the margin portion 106 is not supposed to be picked by a finger in the first place, it has a dimensional shape that is difficult to pick and a force is not easily applied even when pulling. However, in the present embodiment, the size of the tag is such that the head of the tag can be easily picked with the pad of a finger, so that the force for removing the tag can be easily applied, and even a woman with weak hands can easily pick the tag. Can be removed.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an operation of removing the tag with a finger. Specifically, it shows a state in which the main body 102 is pressed and the head 201 is picked up with the pad of a finger and removed. The head 201 may be pressed and the main body 102 may be picked and removed.

When sewing the tag 100 to the garment 101 with a sewing machine at the factory, the center of the constricted portion 202 in the Y direction can be sewn along the X direction, so that the operator can easily recognize the sewing line in advance and improve the work efficiency. Has the effect of. In particular, by making the color of the constricted portion 202 different from that of the main body portion 102 or the head portion 201, the constricted portion can be confirmed by the color, and sewing can be performed more easily. However, if the mounting sewing thread 107 is within the range of the constricted portion 202, there is no difference in ease of removal even if the mounting sewing thread 107 is slightly deviated from the center line, so that the burden of quality management is reduced.

Further, when forming a color on the constricted portion 202, the direction in which the tag 100 is torn off can be guided by adding a color shape that recognizes the directionality from left to right or right to left, such as an arrow shape. , Allows for easier removal for consumers.

By describing how to remove the tag 100 on the head 201 with characters, symbols, or the like, the consumer can easily recognize how to remove the tag 100. For example, it is effective to just add an arrow to the place where you pick it with your fingers. Furthermore, if you make a more specific note such as "make a crease in the perforation and cut it out", smoother and more effective removal will be possible.

<Modification example>
In this modification, the convex portion 204 is provided in the upper left portion of the head 201, and the main body portion 102 and the constricted portion 202 are connected without forming the constricted shape 203 on the right side of the constricted portion 202. Different from the form.
FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a sewn tag according to a modified example of the embodiment of the present invention. In the following description, components that are the same as or equivalent to those of the above-described conventional example or embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be simplified or omitted.

<Action / effect>
In this modification, since the convex portion 204 is provided, the consumer can more clearly recognize that the left side of the head 201 having the convex portion 204 should be picked up and pulled in the right direction to remove the tag 100, which is smooth. It has the effect of encouraging removal.

By forming the constriction shape 203 only on the left side, an appropriate pulling direction can be recognized more reliably. However, it does not exclude the formation of the constricted shape 203 on the right side. If the shape is such that the direction of picking and pulling with a finger is easy to see, contrary to this modification, a convex portion is provided only on the upper right part and a constricted shape is formed only on the right side, or a convex portion is formed on the upper left and right sides. Can be provided to form a constricted shape on the left and right.

<Material>
The tag 100 is preferably made of paper. Any material such as glossy paper or Japanese paper can be used according to the needs such as aesthetics and tearability. Any material that can be broken by the force of a finger can be formed of plastic or any other material.

Any material can be used for the garment 101. Even if the material is easily torn, it is possible to put the tag 100 in a packaging bag made of plastic or the like and provide the tag 100 on the packaging bag.

<Sewing rules>
The rules for sewing tags are not particularly limited as long as the existing rules of the factory are used, but preferred examples are lockstitch, 4 to 16 stitches / inch as the number of stitches, and cotton or polyester spun as the thread material. There is lockstitching with nylon filament thread.

Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
