[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a number plate is attached to the front and back of the vehicle, and the vehicle can be identified by referring to the number plate. In particular, when a vehicle is stolen, referring to the license plate may lead to early detection of the vehicle.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, since the license plate is relatively easy to remove, only the license plate is stolen, which may be misused for crimes. Furthermore, if the license plate is replaced when the vehicle is stolen, the stolen vehicle cannot be specified.
[0004]
The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a vehicle theft prevention method capable of easily identifying a vehicle simultaneously with a license plate.
[0005]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The vehicle theft prevention method according to the present invention includes a support layer, a first adhesive layer formed on the upper surface of the support layer, and a predetermined pattern formed on the upper surface of the first adhesive layer. Vehicle information including a self-destructive film layer included so as to be visible from a side opposite to the first pressure-sensitive adhesive layer, and a vehicle number of the vehicle formed on an upper surface of the film layer, A printed layer that is visible from the opposite side of the film layer, a transparent second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed on the upper surface of the printed layer, and a transparent release agent layer on the upper surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer Create a vehicle anti-theft sticker with a formed protective film layer,
The protective film layer is peeled off, and the vehicle antitheft sticker is affixed to the inside of the windproof glass of the vehicle.
[0006]
“Attaching to the inside of windproof glass” means that it can be attached to the inside of at least the front or rear glass of the vehicle.
[0007]
The “support layer” is made of paper, a plastic film such as vinyl chloride, or a reflective sheet. It should be noted that the support layer may be colored in order to improve decoration and visibility, or may include a design such as a mark of a government office such as the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.
[0008]
The “predetermined pattern” includes a mark of a government office managing the vehicle number, such as the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, a mark indicating that the vehicle has been authenticated, a ruled line for arranging the vehicle number, and information that does not change depending on the vehicle , Authentication patterns, regular or irregular designs, and the like.
[0009]
In the vehicle antitheft method according to the present invention, it is preferable to use a hologram film having a hologram on the whole and / or part of the film layer as the self-destructive film layer.
[0010]
The hologram film is a film in which a mark of a government office managing a vehicle number such as the Land Transport Bureau, an authentication pattern or mark indicating that the vehicle has been authenticated, a regular or irregular pattern, etc. are contained in a hologram. .
[0011]
In the vehicle antitheft method according to the present invention, it is preferable that the print layer is formed on the film layer by thermal transfer printing. Note that the printing layer may be formed not only by thermal transfer printing but also by other printing methods such as inkjet printing.
[0012]
In addition to the vehicle information, the print layer preferably includes a barcode associated with the vehicle information.
[0013]
【The invention's effect】
In the vehicle antitheft method according to the present invention, the protective film layer of the vehicle antitheft sticker is peeled off, and the vehicle antitheft sticker is attached to the desired position of the windproof glass from the second adhesive layer side.
[0014]
Thus, according to the vehicle theft prevention method of the present invention, the vehicle information including the vehicle number can be easily pasted on the windshield glass, so that the same vehicle number as the license plate cannot be tampered with in a manner that cannot be tampered with. Can be displayed.
[0015]
Further, since the vehicle antitheft sticker is affixed from the inside of the windproof glass, a person other than an authorized person such as a vehicle owner cannot touch the vehicle antitheft sticker. Furthermore, since a self-destructive film layer is used and a printed layer is further formed on the film layer, once the vehicle anti-theft sticker is peeled off, the film layer is destroyed and included in the predetermined layer The pattern and the printed layer are also destroyed, so that the sticker cannot be reused. Therefore, when a vehicle is registered, an authorized office such as the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism issues a vehicle anti-theft sticker together with the vehicle's license plate and requires the vehicle anti-theft sticker to be attached. When removed or illegally replaced, the license plate and the vehicle number included in the vehicle antitheft sticker attached to the vehicle will not match. Therefore, it is possible to prevent crimes such as theft of the license plate and further theft of the vehicle.
[0016]
In addition, in the vehicle antitheft sticker, the film layer is a hologram film having a hologram on the entire surface and / or part of the film layer. The vehicle antitheft sticker can be included in a manner that cannot be easily imitated. Therefore, forgery of the vehicle antitheft sticker can be prevented.
[0017]
In addition, the printing layer can be easily formed by forming the printing layer on the film layer by a printing method such as thermal transfer printing.
[0018]
In addition, by including a barcode associated with vehicle information in the printed layer, it is easy to automatically read the vehicle number with a remote barcode reader from outside the vehicle, and access to and from tollgates such as expressways It can also be used to record vehicles, manage the entry and exit of paid parking lots, and check admission to membership-based venues.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a configuration of a vehicle antitheft sticker according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sectional view thereof. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a vehicle antitheft sticker 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a support layer 11, a first adhesive layer 12 formed on the upper surface of the support layer 11, A self-destructive film layer 13 formed on the top surface of one adhesive layer 12, a printed layer 14 representing vehicle information formed on the top surface of the film layer 13, and a first layer formed on the top surface of the printed layer 14. And a protective film layer 17 formed on the upper surface of the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 15 together with the release agent layer 16. In FIG. 2, there are places where the layers are separated, but in actuality, the layers are in close contact.
[0020]
The support layer 11 is made of white paper or plastic such as vinyl chloride so that the vehicle information represented by the printing layer 14 is easily visible when the vehicle antitheft sticker according to the present embodiment is attached to the windshield of the vehicle. A film or the like is used.
[0021]
In addition, a reflective sheet may be used as the support layer 11, and the support layer 11 may be colored, or a design such as a mark of the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism may be provided.
[0022]
Further, it is preferable to provide a transparent protective film layer 20 on the lower surface of the support layer 11 in order to protect the support layer 11. The protective film layer 20 can be easily peeled off when the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 is applied.
[0023]
Although the 1st and 2nd adhesive layers 12 and 15 are normally comprised by coating an adhesive, they can also be comprised with a double-sided tape. The pressure-sensitive adhesive layers 12 and 15 have a pressure-sensitive adhesive strength that allows the film layer 13 and the print layer 14 to self-destruct when the sticker once attached to the windshield glass of the vehicle is peeled off.
[0024]
The film layer 13 is composed of a brittle transparent film, more preferably a hologram film. Here, in the present embodiment, the characters “Japan” and “2002” and the ruled lines for arranging the vehicle information are printed on the surface of the film layer 13 as a predetermined pattern, thereby being included in the film layer 13. However, a mark of a government office such as the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism may be included in the film layer 13 as a predetermined pattern.
[0025]
Here, the predetermined pattern may be included in the film layer 13 by printing, or may be included in the film layer 13 by interference fringes corresponding to the interference pattern of the hologram.

The protective film layer 17 is made of a transparent material film. A release agent is applied to the protective film layer 17 to form the release agent layer 16. The release agent layer 16 facilitates the separation of the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 15 and the protective film layer 17. Moreover, since the 2nd adhesive layer 15 is protected by the protective film layer 17, contamination of the 2nd adhesive layer 15 is prevented and, thereby, the visibility of the printing layer 14 improves.
[0031]
In the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 according to the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, first, a protective film layer 20, a support layer 11, a first adhesive layer 12, a film layer 13 and a printing layer 14 are laminated. Thus, the first stacked body 30 is formed. On the other hand, the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 15, the release agent layer 16 and the protective film layer 17 are laminated to form the second laminate 31. In addition, in order to protect the 2nd adhesive layer 15, the protective film layer 22 is provided to the 2nd laminated body 31. FIG. And the protective film layer 22 of the 2nd laminated body 31 is peeled, and the 1st laminated body 30 and the 2nd laminated body 31 are bonded together, and the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 is formed.
[0032]
The vehicle anti-theft sticker 10 according to the embodiment of the present invention thus configured is affixed to a desired position of the windshield glass of the vehicle from the second pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 15 side by peeling off the protective film layer 17. The
[0033]
As described above, according to the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 according to the present embodiment, information relating to the vehicle can be easily attached to the windshield glass, so that the same vehicle number as the license plate cannot be tampered with in a manner that cannot be tampered with. Can be displayed.
[0034]
Further, since the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 is affixed from the inside of the windproof glass, a person other than an authorized person such as the owner of the vehicle cannot touch the vehicle antitheft sticker 10. Furthermore, since the self-destructive film layer 13 is used and the printing layer 14 is further formed on the film layer 13, when the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 is removed, the film layer 13 and the printing layer 14 are removed. It is destroyed, and the authentication pattern by the hologram contained therein, the mark of the government office, and the vehicle information represented by the printing layer 14 are also destroyed. As a result, the sticker cannot be reused. Therefore, at the time of registration of the vehicle, an authorized office such as the Land Transport Bureau or the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism issues the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 together with the vehicle number plate, and obliges the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 to be attached to the windshield glass. Then, when the license plate is removed or illegally replaced, the license plate and the vehicle number included in the vehicle antitheft sticker 10 attached to the vehicle do not match. Therefore, it is possible to prevent crimes such as theft of the license plate and further theft of the vehicle.
[0035]
Further, by changing the color of the vehicle information, the color of the support layer 11 and the color of the film layer 13 according to the registration year of the vehicle, the registration year can be easily identified.
[0036]
In addition, the barcode associated with the vehicle information is included in the print layer 14 to facilitate automatic reading of the vehicle number by a remote barcode reader or the like from outside the vehicle, and access to and from a tollgate such as a highway. It can also be used to record vehicles, manage the entry and exit of paid parking lots, and check admission to membership-based venues.
