Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a neck label attached to a neck portion of a bottle container or the like in order to enhance the advertising effect of a product.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Traditionally, when conducting sales campaigns for products such as soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, and seasonings filled in bottles made of glass, plastic, etc., the product name, price, It is frequently performed to attach a neck label indicating the above to the neck of a bottle container or the like.
[0003]
An example of this type of neck hanging label is shown in FIG. The necking label 50 is formed at the mouth of a bottle container to be attached to, for example, a circular label base 51 formed of paper or a plastic sheet, as shown in FIG. A mounting hole 52 having a diameter slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the overhanging portion such as a flange is formed, and a plurality of cuts 53 extending in the radial direction are formed on the periphery of the mounting hole 52.
[0004]
The neck hanging label 50 is attached by fitting an attachment hole 52 formed in the label base 51 into the neck N of the bottle container P as shown in FIG. The base material 51 projects from the neck N of the bottle container P in the horizontal direction. When the neck hanging label 50 is attached to the neck N of the bottle container P, a large diameter portion such as the cap C or the flange F is bent while the portion sandwiched between the cuts 53 on the periphery of the attachment hole 52 is bent outward. And the peripheral edge of the mounting hole 52 is locked to the lower side of the large-diameter flange F, so that the mounted neck hanging label 50 is detached from the bottle container P. It has been stopped.
[0005]
Further, as another neck hanging label, for example, there is a label as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 6A, the neck hanging label 60 is formed by paper or a plastic sheet, and the both ends of the fan-shaped belt-like label base material 61 shown in FIG. Is attached to the neck N of the bottle container P from the large-diameter lower end opening side, as shown in FIG. It has become so.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, the necking label 50 as described above is a flat label in which a mounting hole 52 and a plurality of cuts 53 are formed in a label substrate 51 cut into a circle, and thus can be easily manufactured. In addition, it can be said that the label for neck is excellent in handleability without being bulky during storage or transportation.
[0007]
However, in the state where the necking label 50 is attached to the neck N of the bottle container P or the like, the label base material 51 on which various indications or the like have been applied is horizontal from the neck N of the bottle container P as described above. Since it is designed to be overhanging and can only recognize the indication or the like on the surface of the label base 51 from the upper side, the product in a container with such a necklace label 50 attached to the store When displayed on the upper shelf of the display shelf installed in the building, there was a problem that it was difficult to catch the eyes of the customer, and sufficient advertising effect could not be exhibited.
[0008]
In addition, if a large amount of information is to be displayed on such a neck label 50, the label base 51 itself must be enlarged. However, a container-equipped product with such a neck label 50 is displayed. When displaying on a shelf or the like, when the label base 51 is larger than the body of the bottle container P or the like, as shown in FIG. Are partially overlapped, and there is a problem that the entire label base 51 cannot be used effectively as a display area.
[0009]
On the other hand, in the neck-hanging label 60 shown in FIG. 9 shaped into a tapered cylindrical body, the label base material 61 on which various indications and the like are given is along the shoulder portion of the bottle container P or the like. Since it is mounted in an inclined state, the problem of the neck hanging label 50 shown in FIG. 8 does not occur, but the band-shaped label base material 61 cut into a fan shape is shaped into a tapered cylindrical body. Therefore, there is a problem in that it cannot be efficiently manufactured, and is bulky in a state where it is shaped into a tapered cylindrical body, so that it is difficult to handle during storage or transportation.
[0010]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a neck label that can exhibit a sufficient advertising effect and can be efficiently manufactured, and has excellent handling properties.
[0011]
[Means for solving the problems and effects thereof]
In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention is a neck hanging label formed of paper or a plastic sheet, which is attached to the neck portion of a container, and has a large-diameter mouth portion continuously provided on the neck portion of the container. A larger polygonal substrate and a projecting piece provided on each side of the substrate are provided, and the substrate has a mounting hole smaller than the neck of the container, and each side of the substrate . A pair of cuts are formed from the two points located on the inner side from both ends in the width direction of the overhanging piece to the mounting hole, and the cuts avoid both sides in the width direction of the overhanging pieces . as such, the neck, wherein a plurality of the tongue in a state of being respectively continuously arranged without passing through the fold in the central portion in the width direction of the Kakuhari piece is formed around the mounting hole A label is provided.
[0012]
In order to attach the necking label constructed as described above to the neck of the container, first, attach the flat necking label to the opening of the container such as a cap, stopper, lid, flange, etc. When it is pushed down in a state that fits the part, the mounting hole is expanded by the plurality of tongue pieces formed around the mounting hole by the cut and pushed outward by the mouth of the container, so it is for neck hanging The label passes through the large-diameter mouth and is fitted into the small-diameter neck.
[0013]
Since the mounting hole formed in the substrate is set to be smaller than the neck of the container, each tongue piece formed around the mounting hole in the state where the necking label is fitted into the neck of the container Since the tip of the neck is bent so that it faces upward, the neck of the container is sandwiched and locked to the lower end of the mouth having a diameter larger than that of the neck. Is prevented.
[0014]
In this way, when the tip of each tongue piece is bent so as to face upward, the tongue piece is connected to the central portion in the width direction without going through the fold. In addition, since a force is applied to push down the tip portion downward, each overhanging piece is also connected to the adjacent overhanging piece, and is bent downward at the outer portion of each tongue piece on the substrate, It is held in an inclined state so as to be along the shoulder portion.
[0015]
As described above, this label for hanging around the neck is in a completely flat state before being attached to the neck of the container. However, when the label is attached to the neck of the container, the overhanging piece naturally forms the shoulder of the container. Since it is held in an inclined state along the section, it is not bulky during storage or transportation, and it is easy to handle and is a conventional neck-mounted label that is mounted along the shoulder of the container. Thus, since the shaping | molding process of shaping into a taper-shaped cylindrical body is not required by mutually sticking the both ends of the strip | belt-shaped label base material cut | disconnected in the fan shape, it can manufacture efficiently.
[0016]
In addition, as described above, this neck hanging label is held in an inclined state so that the overhanging piece continuously provided on the substrate is along the shoulder of the container in a state where the label is attached to the neck of the container. If the overhang amount of the overhanging piece is increased to display a catch phrase, a cautionary note, etc., the indication given to the overhanging piece can be recognized not only from above the product in the container but also from the side. Therefore, the display on the projecting piece is easily noticed by the customer, and an excellent advertising effect can be obtained.
[0017]
Moreover, when products in containers with necklace labels attached are displayed side by side, the attached labels do not overlap partially like conventional neckline labels that protrude horizontally from the neck of the container. Therefore, there is also an effect that the entire overhang piece can be effectively used as the display area.
[0018]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 show a neck hanging label for mounting on a neck portion N of a PET bottle P having a square cylindrical body B as shown in FIG. 3 (a). The label 1 is formed of a plastic sheet having a thickness of 0.1 to 1.0 mm (preferably 0.2 to 0.5 mm) made of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or the like. A cylindrical shrink label L is attached to the body B of the PET bottle P in advance.
[0019]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the neck hanging label 1 has a square substrate 10 larger than the screw cap C of the PET bottle P, and four overhangs connected to each side of the substrate 10. A square mounting hole 11 smaller than the neck N of the PET bottle P is formed at the center of the substrate 10. In addition, in FIG. 2, the external shape of the screw cap C and neck part N of PET bottle P is shown with the dashed-two dotted line.
[0020]
The square substrate 10 has a pair of cuts 12 extending in a perpendicular direction from adjacent sides across the tops and joined to each other in the vicinity of the tops, and joining the pair of cuts 12. A cut 13 extending from the point to the corner of the square mounting hole 11 is formed, and two cuts 12 extending from the same side of the substrate 10 and two bonded to the two cuts 12 respectively. By the cuts 13, tongue pieces 14 are formed around the mounting hole 11 so as to be connected to the protruding pieces 20.
[0021]
Further, crease lines 15 are formed at both ends of each side of the substrate 10 so as to connect each apex and the cut line 12 closest to each apex, and are connected to each other without the crease line interposed therebetween. The protruding piece 20 and the tongue piece 14 in the state of being bent can be bent at the crease line 15 portions formed on both sides of the tongue piece 14.
[0022]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the four protruding pieces 20 are formed in a substantially trapezoidal shape that spreads outward from the base end portion connected to the substrate 10 in the protruding direction. By bending along the crease line 15, the side edges of the adjacent overhanging pieces 20 come close to each other when tilted along the shoulder S of the PET bottle P described above. (See FIG. 3B).
[0023]
In order to attach the necking label 1 configured as described above to the neck N of the PET bottle P shown in FIG. 3A, first, as shown in FIG. The hanging label 1 is superposed on the upper surface of the screw cap C so that the mounting hole 11 portion is at the center of the screw cap C of the PET bottle P.
[0024]
In this state, when the front end portion of the overhanging piece 20 in the necking label 1 is pushed downward, a plurality of cuts 12 and 13 formed around the mounting hole 11 as shown in FIG. When the tongue piece 14 is raised, the mounting hole 11 is expanded in diameter, and the large-diameter screw cap C is fitted into the mounting hole 11.
[0025]
In this way, the necking label 1 in which the screw cap C is fitted into the expanded mounting hole 11 has a large-diameter screw in a state in which the tip portion of each tongue piece 14 is in contact with the outer peripheral surface of the screw cap C. It passes through the cap C and the flange F portion, and is inserted into the small-diameter neck N as shown in FIG.
[0026]
As described above, since the mounting hole 11 formed in the substrate 10 is set to be smaller than the neck N of the PET bottle P, in the state where the neck hanging label 1 is fitted into the neck N of the PET bottle P, the same is applied. As shown in FIG. 3C, each tongue piece 14 formed around the mounting hole 11 is bent so that the respective tip end portions are directed upward, and the neck portion N of the PET bottle P is sandwiched between the neck portions. Since it is locked to the lower end of the flange F having a diameter larger than N, the neck hanging label 1 once attached does not easily fall off from the neck N of the PET bottle P.
[0027]
In this way, in a state where the tip portion of each tongue piece 14 is bent so as to face upward, the tip portion of each overhanging piece 20 to which each tongue piece 14 is connected is pushed downward. 3b, each overhanging piece 20 is bent downward along the crease line 15 and held in an inclined state along the shoulder S of the PET bottle P, as shown in FIG. Is done. Thus, when the overhanging piece 20 is inclined so as to follow the shoulder portion S of the PET bottle P, the side edges of the adjacent overhanging pieces 20 come into contact with each other as described above, and the shoulder portion of the PET bottle P S is substantially covered by the necking label 1.
[0028]
As described above, when the necking label 1 is attached to the neck N of the PET bottle P, the overhanging piece 20 is held in a three-dimensional state inclined along the shoulder S of the PET bottle P. Since it is in a completely flat state before being attached to the neck N of the PET bottle P, it can be said that it is not bulky at the time of storage or transportation and is excellent in handleability.
[0029]
Moreover, the necking label 1 is simply a punched plastic sheet in the shape described above. Like the conventional necking label 60 that is mounted along the shoulder of the container, the necking label 1 is a belt-shaped strip that is cut in a fan shape. Since the both ends of the label base material 61 are adhered to each other, there is no need for a shaping step of shaping into a tapered cylindrical body.
[0030]
Further, in a state where the neck hanging label 1 is attached to the neck portion N of the PET bottle P, the overhanging piece 20 connected to the substrate 10 is connected to the shoulder portion S of the PET bottle P as shown in FIG. Therefore, if a catchphrase, a cautionary note, etc. are displayed on the overhanging piece 20, the display on the overhanging piece 20 is not only displayed above the PET bottle P. It can be recognized from the side. Therefore, even when the PET bottle P equipped with the neck hanging label 1 is displayed at a high position such as the upper stage of the display shelf, the display on the overhanging piece 20 can be reliably recognized. The advertising effect by the label 1 is surely exhibited.
[0031]
Moreover, even when the PET bottles P to which the neck hanging label 1 is attached are displayed side by side, the attached labels do not partially overlap each other as in the conventional neck hanging label 50 shown in FIG. There is also an effect that the entire overhang piece 20 can be effectively used as a display area.
[0032]
In the above-described embodiment, in order to display all the overhanging pieces 20 connected to each side of the square substrate 10, all the overhanging pieces 20 are set to the same size and the same shape. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when it is sufficient to display only the two protruding pieces 20 that face each other, the other two sheets like the label 2 for the neck shown in FIG. The overhanging amount of the overhanging piece 20a may be reduced, and when only one overhanging piece 20 is displayed like the neckline label 3 shown in FIG. It is also possible to set the overhang amount of the piece 20a small.
[0033]
In the above-described embodiment, the crease line 15 that connects the top of the substrate 10 and the end of the cut 12 is formed. However, the crease line 15 is not necessarily formed. However, since the overhanging piece 20 is easily bent with respect to the substrate 10 by forming the crease line 15 such as a groove shape, a perforation shape, or an uneven shape, the necking label 1 is attached to the PET bottle P. When mounted on the neck N, an effect is obtained that the overhanging piece 20 can be easily held in an inclined state.
[0034]
In addition, as described above, it is desirable that the mounting hole 11 that is completely opened is formed in advance in the substrate 10. For example, a PET bottle P can be used like a neckline label 4 shown in FIG. When mounting on the neck portion N of the substrate 10, the cut and raised piece 16 that opens the mounting hole 11 of the substrate 10 by being pushed while being pushed by the screw cap C is set to either one of the crease lines 17 such as perforations. It is also possible to adopt a form in which the tip of the tongue piece 14 is provided continuously.
[0035]
Further, in the above-described embodiment, the case where the necking label 1 of the present invention is attached to the square PET bottle P having the square barrel body B is described, but the present invention is not limited to this. It goes without saying that the necking label of the invention can be attached to the neck portion of various containers such as round PET bottles and bottle containers.
[0036]
In the above-described embodiment, the necking label 1 in which the trapezoidal protruding piece 20 is continuously provided on the square substrate 10 has been described. However, the substrate in the necking label of the present invention has a triangular shape, a hexagonal shape, or the like. Any polygon may be used, and the shape is not particularly limited to a square.
[0037]
Further, the shape of the overhanging piece 20 is not limited to a trapezoid, and can be set to various shapes such as a square shape and a rectangular shape. However, if the overhanging piece 20 is set in a trapezoidal shape, there is almost no gap between adjacent overhanging pieces 20 when the necking label 1 is attached to the neck portion of the container. The effect that the shoulder part S of the bottle P can be covered substantially is acquired.
[0038]
In addition, as described above, in addition to displaying a catchphrase, a cautionary note, etc., the overhanging piece 20 is attached with an accessory such as a product bonus, or a cut is provided in the overhanging piece 20. It is also possible to attach the accessory by inserting it into the cut portion.
