Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a continuous form in which a large amount of confidential information can be hidden and sent or handed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a bank, a securities company, an insurance company, etc. have concealed confidential information such as balance notification, transaction notification, and contract details to a customer and mail it to an individual as a tri-fold mail form, A4. Envelopes made by folding cut paper and using an enclosing and sealing machine have been used. The tri-fold mail form is as shown by the continuous form 31 shown in FIG.
Marginal punch 32 on both sides and 2 in the longitudinal direction at the center
A book is formed with folding perforations 33 and lateral perforations 34 for separation at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction.
The necessary format is printed so that the area sandwiched by the horizontal perforations 34 becomes a personal-addressed form 35 sent to the individual.
The individual address form 35 is divided into an address area 35a and information printing areas 35b and 35c by the folding perforations 33. This continuous form 31 is sent to the address information 36a and personal information 3 by the output device of the computer.
6b, 36c, etc. are printed, then set in the envelope forming device, folded in three, and made into an envelope for each individual.
That is, in the envelope forming device, the continuous foam 31 is pulled out and folded in three in a Z shape along the two folding perforations 33, and the marginal punches 32 at both ends are removed. By cutting along it, it is cut into individual personal address sheets 35, and by pressing with a press roller, the pressure-sensitive adhesive that has been applied in advance is activated and folded in three as shown in FIG. 7. The four personal address forms 35 are firmly adhered and sealed so as not to be peeled again. Therefore, when opening the package, the three sides must be torn off.

Here, the personal information recorded in the information records 35b and 35c relates to one subject. For example, in the case of a bank, information on various subjects such as notification of maturity of time deposit, notification of deposit and withdrawal details, notification of loan payment / balance, notification of payment details by credit, etc. However, only information regarding one of the subjects is recorded in one continuous form 1, and information regarding another subject is recorded in another continuous form.

A continuous foam 41 shown in FIG. 8 is also known. (See, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-45838). This continuous form also has a predetermined format printed such that a large number of personal address forms 43 are arranged in the longitudinal direction. It has eyes 44 and also has slit lines 45 for separation in the longitudinal direction, and divides each personal address book 43 into a plurality of information printing areas 43a to 43f. In the continuous form 41, after printing the information, the individual areas 43a to 43f of the individual-addressed form 43 are cut off and accumulated in a predetermined order, and one end thereof is bound to form a booklet 47 shown in FIG. This form of continuous foam 41
For example, the information recorded in the plurality of information recording areas 43a to 43f, which is used for tax payment notices, coupon books, etc., is still related to one subject.

In addition, a letter-folded A4 cut paper,
Envelopes that use the enclosing machine are also used. A4 cut paper is folded like a tri-fold mail form after printing, and the four sides are adhesively attached so that the four sides cannot be removed again.
You have to tear off the three sides. Envelopes that use the enclosing and sealing machine are those in which a form, etc. printed on a separately prepared envelope is subjected to work such as gathering and then enclosed.

[0006]

However, in recent years, the types of confidential information to be transmitted to individuals and the amount of confidential information for one time have increased. The degree of confidentiality is widespread, and there are cases where complete concealment is not always required. The conventional mail forms have a problem that the information printing area is insufficient. In addition, tri-fold mail form and A
With 4-cut paper, you can't open it without breaking the three sides,
There was a problem that garbage was generated when opening the package. Envelopes using the enclosing and sealing machine can handle quite a lot of data, but there was also the problem that the process until completion was long and complicated. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and can conceal an arbitrary amount of relatively mild confidentiality information from a small amount to a large amount to reach each individual, and easily open it in a booklet form. The purpose is to provide a continuous form.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the first solving means of the booklet-like folding and forming form according to the present invention is to connect a plurality of form pieces through a folding perforation and to set a predetermined surface. It is a continuous foam having a printing area and an adhesive area at the position of, and an adhesive area at a predetermined position on the back surface, and is alternately folded back in the opposite direction at the folding perforations and sealed by applying pressure. Characterize.

A second means for solving the booklet-like folded form is that every other one of the form pieces connected to each other on the front side of the continuous form and all the form pieces connected to each other on the back side. In, in at least the front and back sides, the adhesive area is provided at a position along the perforations that are mountain folds and both edges of the form piece, and the adhesive area is on the surface side by a removable adhesive. It is characterized in that it is formed of a pressure-sensitive adhesive which cannot be removed again on the back side.

A third means for solving the booklet-like folded and folded form is characterized in that a hole is punched on the perforated perforation which becomes a mountain fold on the surface side of the continuous form.

[0010]

According to the present invention, the length of the continuous foam can be freely set. That is, any amount of confidential information can be printed on a continuous form having a length corresponding to the amount and concealed to each individual by mail or handed. When a continuous foam with a set length is folded back in the opposite direction alternately at the fold perforation and pressed, the front surface adheres removably due to the weak adhesion between the paper and the adhesive material, and the back surface is adhesive Due to its strong adhesion, it adheres irremovably. Therefore, at the time of opening, only the surface is opened like a booklet. Moreover, at the edge of the front edge of the booklet page, a file hole is punched on the crease line which is a mountain fold in advance when viewed from the front side to form a notch to facilitate opening of the booklet page. Since the adhesive region on the surface is formed of a weakly removable adhesive, it can be easily opened into a booklet with a comparatively light force, and it is not necessary to tear off the three sides, so no dust is generated. Also, in FIG.
Unlike the continuous form 11 in the form of a booklet described in FIG. 9, there is no need for collation work or the like, there is no need to use envelopes, and the encapsulation work is omitted, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0011]

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a plan view of the front surface of a booklet-like folded form 21 according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan view of the back surface. Form pieces 1, 2, 3 to n are folding perforations m1, m2, m3 to mn
It is connected via the, and the left and right marginal punch 1
1 and a vertical perforation 12 are provided. Information printing areas 1a to na are formed in the central portion of the surface of each form piece. As shown in FIG. 1, the booklet-like folded form according to the present invention is cut along crease lines m1 to m (n + 1) to become a booklet-like folded form 22 addressed to each individual, and then folded back along crease lines m1 to mn. It is then crimped to form a personalized letter. In FIG. 1, the customer's address, sender's name, etc. are respectively assigned to the form pieces 1 and n, 2a to (n-1) a
Confidential information is printed on each. Further, the information is not limited to confidential information, and may be information such as advertisement text, manga, and coloring book. Further, fixed information such as ruled lines, figures, and explanatory text may be printed as appropriate. In FIG. 1, on the surface of every other form piece 2, 4, 6-n, folding perforations m2, m4 to mn that become mountain folds and both end edges of each of the form pieces, that is, along the vertical sewing machine 12 are formed. Thus, the U-shaped adhesive regions 2b, 4b to nb are provided, and the adhesive regions are formed of a weak adhesive that can be re-peeled after being pressed against the paper surface. On the back side, all the form pieces 1, 2,
In 3 to n, crease lines m1, m3, and m that are mountain folds
5 to m (n + 1) and both end edges of all the form pieces, that is, along the vertical sewing machine 12, the adhesive areas 1b ′ to n in a U shape.
b'is provided. The pattern of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer in the pressure-sensitive adhesive region may be a solid U-shape shown by diagonal lines as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, or may be a continuous line of dotted or circular dots. Further, as for the back surface, an adhesive agent is additionally required, but the adhesive area is not limited to the U-shape as described above and may be an adhesive area on the entire surface. In addition, the adhesive area on the surface may be located at one of the positions in FIG. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of FIG. 1A-A ′ for explaining the adhesive region of this embodiment in more detail. The front surface is provided with a re-peelable adhesive layer on every other form, and the purpose is to weakly adhere to the paper surface, while the back surface is peeled off when pressure is applied by adhesion between the adhesive layers. The purpose is to make it difficult. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, a continuous foam sealed by a press is peeled off only on the surface with a comparatively light force so that it can be opened like a booklet shown in FIG. If you want to make the hiding property more perfect, make the adhesive areas face each other like the back surface,
Moreover, the components of the pressure-sensitive adhesive may be controlled so that the removability remains. In FIG. 1, a crease line m that makes a mountain fold
Holes 13, 14 and --- are drilled on 2, m4 to mn with a lateral phase shift. This is effective in facilitating the opening of the pressure-bonded continuous foam shown in FIG. 4 in the form of a booklet as shown in FIG. 5, and when the number of forms is small, the corner cut 15 shown in FIGS. But it's okay.

The manufacturing process and use process of the present embodiment described above will be described. After printing the format, description, and tint block on the surface of the high-quality roll paper with an offset four-color machine, folding perforations m1 to mn, vertical perforations 12,
The marginal punch 11 is further processed to have holes 13 and 14 ---, and then a removable re-peelable adhesive agent is solidly printed on the adhesive area shown in FIG. A non-removable strong pressure-sensitive adhesive was printed in a solid pattern as shown in FIG. 2, dried, and then folded in such a manner that two form pieces were not pressed. After the information is output from the computer to the information recording portions 1a to na of the continuous form 21 prepared in the above process and printed, the left and right marginal punches 11
Both ears with cuts were cut from the perforation 12. Then, the continuous form 21 is cut at the fold perforations m1 and m (n + 1) to become a booklet-like folded form 22 for an individual,
As shown in FIG. 3, by folding in zigzag and then applying pressure, the adhesive in the adhesive area was activated to form a sealed letter consisting of a plurality of form pieces as shown in FIG. Next, the half-moon shaped notches 13 ', 14'- formed on the fore edge side.
When peeled off from the sheet, it could be easily opened like a booklet as shown in FIG. 5, and the concealed confidential information could be viewed in a booklet style.

The removable pressure-sensitive adhesive used in the present invention is characterized in that the pressure-sensitive adhesive layers adhere to each other and can be re-peeled.
As the paper used in the present invention, generally 44 to 70 g / m ² of high quality paper can be used, and in order to print the adhesive layer on the adhesive area shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, flexographic printing using a rubber relief printing plate is performed. The method can be suitably used. As described above, as a result of the back surface of the continuous foam 21 being strongly adhered, in the final form of the booklet, two sheets are stacked as shown in FIG. 5, so it is better to use thin paper in a booklet shape. After that, there is no discomfort, which is preferable.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive used in the present invention will be described in detail below. The releasable pressure-sensitive adhesive used in the mail form of the present invention has an adhesive layer that weakly adheres to a base material of high-quality paper and is easily re-peeled, and the adhesive layers are pressure-contacted with each other. The adhesive main component, the adhesive strength adjusting agent, the additives and the like are mixed in the following proportions. Adhesive main agent 100 parts by weight Adhesion control agent In the case of needle-shaped substances 10-100 (preferably 10-50) parts by weight In the case of fine-grained substances 0-50 (preferably 5-30) parts by weight When the above substances are mixed 10 to 100 parts by weight Additive wax 0.01 to 20 parts by weight Ultraviolet absorber Small amount defoaming agent Small amount defoaming aid Small amount emulsifying component Water 100 to 500 (preferably 200 to 300) parts by weight Emulsifier 0.5 to 2 Parts by weight resin 1 to 50 parts by weight

[Adhesive Main Agent] The adhesive main agent is a natural rubber (N
R), esterified natural rubber, styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), chloroprene rubber, polyvinyl acetate, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) and the like, or a mixture thereof. In mixing these adhesive main agents, by appropriately adjusting the mixing ratio, the adhesiveness to the base material can be made higher than the adhesiveness while maintaining the self-adhesiveness between the pressure-sensitive adhesives. Preferably, a natural rubber having a high property of exhibiting self-adhesiveness between pressure-sensitive adhesives under pressure is added with polymethylmethacrylate or styrene-butadiene rubber for the purpose of enhancing the adhesiveness with a base material, that is, the anchor effect. Is mentioned. Polymethylmethacrylate is preferably used as a mixture with another adhesive main agent rather than used alone. As such an adhesive main agent, fine particles having a particle size of about 0.1 μm to 3 μm are usually used.

[Adhesive Strength Adjusting Agent] The adhesive strength adjusting agent is mixed in order to adjust the adhesive strength of the adhesive main agent, and a needle-like substance or a fine particulate substance or a mixture thereof is used. Needle-like substance As the needle-like substance, any of an inorganic substance and an organic substance may be used, as long as the shape thereof is substantially needle-like, flat, spiral,
Although it is arbitrarily selected from those having various forms such as scales, a needle-shaped substance is particularly preferable. The needle-shaped substance has an average length of 10 μm to 20 μm and an average diameter of 0.2.
It is preferably about μm to 0.5 μm. Needle-like substances
It is preferable that the pressure-sensitive adhesive be an emulsion and have an apparent specific gravity of 0.05 to 0.6 in order to reduce the sedimentation property when it is used as a coating agent. Further, in consideration of printing processing and NIP suitability, a needle-shaped substance Has an elastic modulus of 10000 kg / mm ²
It is preferably about 40,000 kg / mm ² . Examples of such needle-like substances include glass fiber, carbon fiber, P
AN-based fibers, metal crystals, metal compound crystals, and the like,
The adhesive main agent may be one that has no affinity (compatibility). A preferable acicular substance is a crystal of potassium 6-titanate (K ₂ O.6TiO ₂ ), which has no compatibility with water but an affinity and an apparent specific gravity of 0.2.
(True specific gravity = 3.3), elastic modulus 28,000 kg / mm ²
And is suitable as a pressure-sensitive adhesive component.

Fine particulate material The fine particulate material includes micro silica, synthetic zeolite, activated alumina gel, calcium carbonate, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, talc, clay, kaolin, activated clay, acrylic beads, starch, cellulose, shirasu balloon and the like. The particles having a particle size of 10 mμm to 30 μm, preferably 0.5 μm to 10 μm are suitable.
Further, by adding together with the needle-shaped substance, it is possible to reduce the addition amount of the fine-grained substance and prevent the fine-grained substance from falling off.

[Additives] As additives, waxes such as polyethylene wax and carnauba wax are used to improve handling properties, slipperiness such as NIP transport performance and blocking resistance, and ammonia for preventing deterioration. UV absorbers such as ethanolamine may be added. Further, as an antifoaming agent, a nonionic surfactant,
An anionic surfactant (mineral oil type) may be added, or silica or the like may be added as a defoaming aid.

[Emulsifying Component] The above-mentioned tackifying main agent, tackiness adjusting agent, and additives are dispersed in a medium such as water and applied to a substrate in an emulsion state. When emulsifying, an emulsifier is added if necessary. As the emulsifier, oleic acid soap, potassium castor oil soap, casein, glue, gelatin and the like can be used. Further, in order to prevent secondary aggregation of the adhesive main agent when emulsified, a resin having no affinity with the adhesive main agent can be added. As this resin, a water-dispersible polymer polyester,
Thermoplastic elastomer, low molecular weight polyethylene such as low density polyethylene, ionomer, vinyl acetate-olefin copolymer and the like can be preferably used.

The coating amount of such pressure sensitive adhesives, after drying ^{0.1g / m 2 ~10g / m 2} , preferably 1.0g
/ M ^{2 to} 3.0 g / m ² is preferable. Within this range, it is possible to print or print on the pressure-sensitive adhesive. In this case, the ink can penetrate through the pressure-sensitive adhesive and reach the base material, and transfer of the printing layer when peeled off can be prevented. In the present invention, since the printing area and the adhesive area are separated at the form design stage, printing is not performed on the adhesive layer, but in order to increase the adhesive force between the opposing form pieces to improve the hiding property. Needs to widen the adhesive area and may overlap with the print area, but as long as the adhesive is used, the trouble due to this overlap does not occur. Further, the adhesive is not limited to the above-mentioned adhesive, and any adhesive or adhesive may be used as long as the front surface can be peeled and the back surface cannot be peeled.

Further, examples of information transmitted by the booklet-like folding form according to the present invention include a notice of withdrawal of money from a bank account, and a purchase of goods by a credit card.
Single payment repayment schedule, long-term repayment plan for loan, life health business content, life health contract content,
In addition to confidential information that has been handled so far, such as taxation certificates, it is possible to use it for extremely versatile purposes when mailing or handing personal results such as gradebooks at school or company training, test results at hospitals, etc. To do.

[0018]

According to the book-like folding form according to the present invention, it is possible to conceal a large amount of confidential information, which has been impossible up to now, and deliver it to an individual or hand it over, and control the number of form pieces. Can handle any amount of information. 1 per mail form so far
Although it was a subject, it is possible to transmit personal information over several subjects to an individual in one continuous form. The method for processing a continuous foam according to the present invention is required to fold and press a required number of form pieces into separate pieces, which eliminates the need for using an envelope and is low in cost. The recipient does not have to tear off the three sides like a tri-fold postcard when opening the package, and it is easy to open from the half-moon shaped notch or the corner cut portion, and no dust is generated. After opening, it becomes a booklet, so you can repeat the page for each subject and see the confidential information clearly. In addition, it has a booklet shape that is not seen in previous forms, and is interesting when peeling it off.
