Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

The present invention relates to a label continuum,
In particular, the present invention relates to a label continuum suitable for use in an automatic label pasting machine which automatically sends the label continuum, peels off a label from a release sheet, and sticks the label on an adherend.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A label continuum 1 is produced by printing a label base paper temporarily attached to a release sheet, die-cutting the label base paper on the release sheet, and punching out a label having a predetermined shape. By peeling off the scraps, which are unnecessary parts of the label base paper, from the release sheet, a plurality of labels 3 are temporarily attached to the release sheet 2 at predetermined intervals along the longitudinal direction as shown in FIG. Is
Thereafter, it is wound into a roll on a paper tube, delivered to a user, loaded into an automatic labeling machine, and used.

Such a label continuum 1 has a die-cut mark 4 on a release sheet 2 at the time of die-cutting, as shown in FIG.
Is a release layer 2 made of silicon or the like on the surface of the release sheet 2.
Since it remains at a depth that reaches a lower paper quality layer 2b beyond a, and the die-cut mark 4 and the peripheral edge of the label 3 coincide with each other, the adhesive 3a on the back surface of the label 3 is used for the blade insertion or the roll at the time of die cutting. Due to the pressure in the wound state, it flows into the die-cut mark 4 and adheres to the paper material layer 2b of the release sheet 2.

As shown in FIG. 6, the peeling sheet 2 of the label continuum 1 in which the pressure sensitive adhesive 3a has flowed into the die-cut marks 4 is reversed by the roller 5 to peel the labels 3 one by one, but not shown. When the label is applied by an automatic label sticking machine such that it is sucked by the vacuum grid and automatically stuck to the adherend, the peeling sheet 2 is reversed by the roller 5 when peeling off the portion of each label 3 on the leading end side in the traveling direction. Die cut mark 4 as it is pulled away from label 3
It is easy for the adhesive 3a of the label 3 to flow into and adhere to the paper-like layer 2b of the release sheet 2, but peeling of the trailing end of the release sheet 2 is in parallel with the release sheet 2 and label 3 Adhesive 3 of label 3 on die cut mark 4 at the rear end
It is not easy because a flows in and is adhered to the paper material layer 2b of the release sheet 2. That is, when the label 3 is peeled off, the pressure-sensitive adhesive 3a on the back surface of the label 3 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive 3 that has flowed into the die-cut mark 4 of the release sheet 2 and adhered to the paper quality layer 2b.
The gap between the a and the label 3 is poor, and the rear edge of the label 3 is pulled. Therefore, the rear edge of the label 3 is not easily peeled off,
In the automatic label applicator, it is difficult to peel the label 3 in a normal posture, and the label 3 faces the abnormal direction and is attached to the adherend, or the label 3 flies and is adhered to the adherend. There was a problem that troubles such as not occurring easily occur.

As a technique for preventing this trouble, as shown in FIG. 7, the label base paper 3'of the label continuum 1 fed from the roll 6A of the label continuum 1 is projected onto the surface of the die roll 7 and the die 8 is provided. The label 3 is formed by die cutting with a predetermined interval, and then the release sheet 2 is inverted at the tip of the release plate 9 to release each label 3, and the residue 10 is raised at the position of the pressing roll 11 and removed. Roll 12
The peeling sheet 2 on which the label 3 has been peeled off is changed in direction by the direction changing roll 13 and the re-temporary fixing plate 14 facing the tip of the peeling plate 9 is used to extend the peeling sheet 2 on the peeling plate 9. The peeling sheet 2 is again present on the re-temporary fixing plate 14, and the peeling sheet 2 is re-temporarily fixed on the re-temporary fixing plate 14 by shifting the position of the peeling sheet 2 so as not to coincide with the die-cut mark 4. Then, it has been proposed to wind the obtained label continuum 1 on a roll 6B (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-106782, etc.).

[0006] In the label continuous body 1 in which the labels 3 are temporarily attached to the release sheet 2 at different positions, the position of the peripheral edge of each label 3 and the position of the die-cut mark 4 are displaced. When each label 3 is peeled from the release sheet 2, the label 3 can be peeled in a normal posture.
Can be prevented from facing in an abnormal direction and being stuck to an object to be stuck.

[0007]

However, in the trouble prevention technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 63-106782 or the like, since the label is replaced, the structure of the label processing apparatus becomes complicated, and the work is not performed. There was a bad problem.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a label continuum having a structure in which each label can be peeled off in a normal posture without replacing the label.
