Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable a confidential mail to be mailed as a private post card, by a method wherein a peripheral part of a predetermined width of an upper paper is bonded on a lower paper provided with a pressure-sensitive character representing layer. CONSTITUTION:A pressure-sensitive character representing layer 2, which produces a color under pressure to show characters, is formed on the upper surface of a lower paper 1 having a post card size. By entering or typing characters and figures on the surface of an upper paper 3, the characters and figures are shown on the surface of the lower paper 1. A private post card is formed by unreleasably bonding the periphery of a predetermined width lof the upper paper 3 on the lower paper 1 with an adhesive. A cutting line 5 is provided inside a peripheral adhesive part 4 of the private post card. A recipient of this letter can open it by cutting the periphery along the cutting line 5. The printing applied on the lower paper is covered with the upper paper, and the upper paper and the lower paper are integrally bonded with each other. Therefore, this letter can be mailed as a private post card though it is a confidential mail keeping correspondence content secret in the same manner as a ordinary letter.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a convenient privately made postcard whose contents are hidden from others.

[Problems to be solved by conventional technology and invention]

Traditionally, for example, if a bank wanted to notify a time depositor that their deposit term had matured, all they had to do was issue a privately made postcard with certain information printed on the computer that manages the time deposit. The current situation is that notifications are sent in sealed letters so that others can see them.

However, sending it as a sealed letter increases the cost because of the large number of sheets sent out, so if possible, it would be desirable to be able to send it as a private postcard and to make it a confidential letter similar to a sealed letter.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention solves this problem, and its structure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

A pressure-sensitive character display layer 2 is formed by applying pressure to the upper surface of a bottom paper 1 of the size of a privately made postcard to display characters by coloring, and a top paper 3 is placed on top of the bottom paper 1 at a predetermined width Q around the periphery. A privately made postcard is formed by integrating the top paper 3 and the bottom paper 1 by adhering them with an adhesive in a state that cannot be easily peeled off, and a tear line 5 is arranged inside the peripheral adhesive part 4 of this privately made postcard.

In addition, a pressure-sensitive character display layer 2 is formed that displays characters by coloring by applying pressure to the upper surface of the bottom paper 1 of the size of a privately made postcard. A privately made postcard is formed by integrating the top paper 3 and the bottom paper 1 by bonding the width Q with an adhesive in such a manner that it cannot be easily peeled off, and a cutout line 5 is arranged inside the peripheral adhesive part 4 of this privately made postcard for communication purposes. Postcard a.

On a privately made postcard for communication a, a backing sheet is combined with a printing frame 6° indicating the content and position to be written or printed on the bottom sheet 1, and a backing sheet is arranged to display characters by writing or stamping.

[Operation] Pressure-sensitive paper, which displays characters by coloring when pressure is applied, displays letters or numbers on the surface of the bottom paper by writing or stamping letters or numbers on the surface of the top paper. The pressure-sensitive layer is constructed so that it exhibits a pressure-sensitive display function by overlapping two types of pressure-sensitive layers. The corresponding lower paper that has been pressure-sensitively treated is called the lower paper, and the intermediate paper inserted in the middle whose upper and lower surfaces have been subjected to different pressure-sensitive treatments is called the middle pressure-sensitive paper.

The present invention does not employ this conventional form of pressure sensitive paper.

The reason for this is that the function of the pressure sensitive layer is reduced due to the adhesive process.

The inventor studied this point and completed the present invention by arranging two types of pressure sensitive layers on the top surface of a sheet of paper and using a pressure sensitive paper that displays characters only on the sheet as the bottom paper.

Therefore, when printing is performed on the private postcard a for communication, the desired print is displayed on the upper surface of the bottom paper 1.

At this time, if you put a backing sheet on a privately made postcard for communication and print on top of the backing sheet so that the characters are displayed on the backing sheet, the characters will be displayed on the backing sheet as well as the backing sheet will be printed on the backing sheet. Bottom paper 1 at the same time as printing
By displaying and placing the same printing frames 6 and 6' in the same position on the bottom paper 1 and backing paper in advance, printing on the backing paper will print on the printing frame 6 of bottom paper 1. Correct printing will be possible, and the printing frame of the lower paper 1 will remain, and no printing will be performed on the upper paper 3.

And they will be able to be mailed using stamps that qualify as private postcards.

The recipient of this sealed letter can open it by cutting off the circumference along the tear line 5, and can read the contents of the communication written on the bottom sheet 1.

〔Example〕

The entire inner surface or a portion of the peripheral adhesive portion 4 is bonded to the upper paper 3 and the lower paper 1 with an adhesive that can be easily peeled off.
may be integrated.

The perforation lines 5 may be arranged on at least three sides.

Perforations may be provided instead of the perforation line 5.

You may also print the sender and other necessary information on the top sheet 3.

A message, a print explanation, a print frame, etc. may be printed on the bottom paper 1.

The correspondence may be printed on the back side of the bottom sheet 1.

You may attach the privately made postcard a and the backing paper.

Place the transfer section 7 on the backing sheet, and place the upper sheet 3 of the privately made postcard a for communication.
The address transfer part 8 may be formed in the address transfer part 8.

A privately made postcard a for communication may be cut and bound.

Privately made postcards for correspondence with postcards may be cut and bound as desired.

In FIG. 1, numeral 9 is the stamp or separate payment side, and 10 is the address blind side, and even if the address is printed on this part, care is taken not to display it on the bottom paper 1.

In FIG. 2, the peripheral adhesive part 4 is 5 to
Although the case where the pressure-sensitive character display layer 2 is provided at approximately Oxx is shown in the figure, it may be provided on the bottom paper 1 side, and it is desirable that the pressure-sensitive character display layer 2 is provided on the inside thereof.

It is best to use a type of adhesive that exhibits adhesive properties when wet with water, but any other type of adhesive may be used as long as it can adhere in a state that cannot be easily peeled off.

When adhering the upper paper 3 and the lower paper 1, care is taken so that the adhesive does not reduce the pressure-sensitive display function.

For example, various methods can be used to prevent the pressure-sensitive display function from deteriorating, such as applying adhesive to non-printing areas and sticking only those areas, or mixing adhesive when forming the pressure-sensitive layer.

One side of the double-sized paper is the top paper 3, the other is the bottom paper 1,
It may also be folded back to form a privately made postcard for communication.

Perforation lines 5 or perforations may be provided on all four sides.

The backing sheet may be paper that automatically displays characters by stamping, or the characters may be displayed using ink from a printer.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the present invention is configured as described above, when printing from above a private postcard for communication, the desired communication will be displayed on the upper side of the bottom paper.

At this time, if the backing sheets are overlapped and printed, the display position on the remaining backing sheet will be determined based on the display position, which is extremely convenient.

The printing on the bottom paper is hidden by the top paper, and since the top and bottom paper are glued together, it is a confidential document where the correspondence cannot be seen like a sealed letter, but it is mailed as a privately made postcard. The person receiving the postcard can open it by cutting out at least three sides along the perforation lines, making it a convenient privately made postcard for correspondence that allows the recipient to read the sealed message.

Therefore, for banks, insurance companies, and the like that have to send out notice letters in large quantities, this system has an excellent feature of significantly reducing mailing costs.
