Then when thermocompression bonding of the same is performed between a press mold 66 of a heat roller 64 and a pinch roller 68, a tailing 17 part corresponding to the hole 16 is stuck to the adhesive agent layer 24 and stripped off. Therefore, the hole 16 is formed in only the label base 14a of the laminated body.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a continuous label body, and in particular, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a continuous label body, and in particular, a method for manufacturing a continuous label body, in which a label having holes formed at predetermined positions is formed at intervals in the longitudinal direction of a strip-shaped release mount. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a continuous label body that is temporarily and releasably attached at a distance.

(Prior Art) Recently, there has been a demand for the development of an efficient method for producing a continuous label body in which a perforated label with holes formed in the label is temporarily attached onto a release mount.

On the other hand, as a method for manufacturing a continuous label body in which such a perforated label is temporarily attached to a release mount, the perforated portion of the label is punched out along with the release mount.
A method has been proposed for manufacturing a continuous label body by temporarily attaching perforated labels to a release mount.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the continuous label body manufactured by such a method for manufacturing a continuous label body, the hole portion of the label is punched out together with the release mount, so that the label continuous body is punched out together with the release mount. A hole will be formed.

Therefore, it has been difficult to wind up and hold such a continuous label body, for example, in a roll.

In addition, when using this label continuous body by loading it into an automatic labeling machine that peels off the labels one by one from a peel-off mount and automatically affixes them to the object, sometimes,
When tension is applied to the release liner and the label, the label does not peel off properly, and the label becomes wrinkled near the hole in the label, causing the label to lose its shape, making it impossible to accurately attach the label to the object. Ta.

That is, such a method of manufacturing a continuous label body is not suitable for mass production and is expensive.

Therefore, the main object of the present invention is a method for manufacturing a continuous label body that can efficiently mass-produce a continuous label body formed by temporarily adhering a perforated label on a release mount at a low cost. It is to provide and provide.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention includes a step of temporarily adhering a label base paper to a release mount with an adhesive layer to form a laminate, and a step of forming holes of a predetermined shape in the label base paper of the laminate. There is a step of punching a hole from one main surface to the other main surface to form a cut corresponding to the outline of the hole in the label base paper, and then applying adhesive force to the part of the punched label base paper surrounded by the cut. A process of adhering and peeling off the laminate to form holes in the label base paper, a process of cutting from one major surface to the other major surface of the label base paper in order to form the label base paper into a predetermined label shape, and the label This is a method for manufacturing a continuous label body, which includes a step of separating an unnecessary portion of base paper other than the label from the label.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) According to the present invention, after forming a cut corresponding to the outline of the hole in the label base paper, only the part surrounded by the cut is adhered and peeled off using adhesive force, and the peelable backing paper and the label are peeled off. Since holes are formed only in the label base paper by separating it from the laminate consisting of the label base paper, it is possible to produce a continuous label body in which holes are formed only in the labels without forming holes in the release mount. Therefore, the manufactured label continuum is
For example, even when loaded into an automatic labeling machine and used, when tension is applied to the release mount and label, the label will not wrinkle and lose its shape, which can prevent trouble.
