Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention has added value such as a fragrance or deodorant function without changing the appearance by structurally modifying the calendar.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional calendars include those for which practicality is merely required and those for which landscape photographs and paintings are printed and used for interior decoration. As an example of the latter, there is a calender combined with a fragrance as a functionalized calender. As such a combination of aromatics, an aromatic agent as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 62-94876 is wrapped in a film and sealed, and the entire surface is adhered to a calender paper. When the agent outlet is cut with perforations and the fragrance is emitted,
There is one in which a mesh case is attached to a paper fixing piece of a calendar as shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 142061/1990, and a replaceable fragrance is put in the case.

[0003]

However, both of these have a calender and a fragrance joined by a structural device, and even if they are functionally satisfactory, they still have a feeling of retrofitting. There is a strong impression of "attachment", and it seems to be inappropriate for producing a fashionable or high-class image. Further, since these are structural devices, it is necessary to take some measures in manufacturing such as processing.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, the present invention uses an ink having an aromatic property or the like to form a character portion or a pattern portion, thereby providing the appearance of a conventional calendar. It can have a fragrance function etc. without changing. That is, paper or a plastic film, or a laminate of paper and a plastic film is used as a base material of a calendar. As the ink, an odorless ink such as a nitrocellulose ink, or a fragrance ink in which a fragrance itself such as an aromatic is mixed with an emulsion type adhesive or the like, or diatomaceous earth having a particle size of 30 to 400 mesh, silica gel, Use a scented ink or scented foam ink in which fine scented particles that have adsorbed the above fragrance with an adsorptive porous powder such as gypsum or ceramic are dispersed in an ink or a foaming ink, or a fragrance such as a fragrance is gelatin capsules. Aromatic ink is used by encapsulating it in the form of microcapsules and kneading this into printing ink.

As the fragrances used, essential oils such as bergamot, lavender, rosemary, and cinnamon, which are fragrances for anxiety relief and antidepressants, and fragrances for awakening (sleepiness) are used as they have a specific effect. There are essential oils such as eucalyptus, verbena, salvia, and hyssop. As the deodorant, there are acid clay, activated clay, activated carbon, silica gel, alumina gel, synthetic zeolite, molecular sieve, and the like, and a deodorant ink is formed by mixing the same with the aromatic agent in the ink.

Then, the obtained fragrance ink is printed by a method such as an offset printing method, a screen printing method, a gravure printing method or the like to form a character portion such as a calendar date and a pattern portion on the paper. After a film having a barrier property such as EVOH is attached to the surface of each of these substrates, the upper portion is bound with metal fittings or resin to form a calendar.

Therefore, perforations for cutting may be provided on the upper part of the calendar and the film so that they can be easily peeled off when used. The emulsion type adhesive may be any emulsion type adhesive such as vinyl acetate type or acrylic type adhesive, but it is preferable that the adhesive itself does not have a strong odor.

Further, a surfactant or an organic solvent having a strong polar group may be mixed in the microcapsules or the printing ink. In addition, when used, the perfume is microencapsulated as described above, and when kneaded into the printing ink, the microcapsule is destroyed by rubbing from above the film at the time of use so as to have an aroma function. Also,
In order to have an aroma function without requiring extra work such as rubbing, a surfactant or an organic solvent having a strong polar group is mixed in the above-mentioned microcapsules or printing ink, and the microcapsules are affected by these solvents. The capsule can be broken to have a fragrance function or the like. In addition, by peeling the barrier film, it is possible to destroy the microcapsules in the ink so as to have an aroma function and the like.

Further, in the case of a calendar, there is a calendar in which the pattern portion is changed every month, and it is also possible to use a fragrance ink according to the pattern. For example, in the case where the change of the four seasons is represented by flowers, it is possible to enhance the sense of season by using a fragrance ink of flowers, which is represented each month.

[0010]

With the printing ink used for the picture or characters drawn on the calendar, various scents can be emitted or deodorized for each page.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. <Embodiment 1> FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of a first embodiment of the present invention, and relates to a single calendar.

That is, paper is used as the base material (1) of the calendar, and the character portion and the pattern portion are formed in the printed portion (2) on the surface thereof by using the fragrance ink, and the film having the gas barrier property ( 3) is laminated. The base material (1) paper is coated paper (basis weight: 79.1 g /
Square meter) is used to form a dragon pattern. At this time, as the fragrance ink for forming the pattern portion (2), a scent of diatomaceous earth of 30 to 60 mesh adsorbed with a fragrance fragrance was kneaded into the printing ink by about 20% by weight, and screen printing was used. Printing was performed by the method.
Then, as shown in FIG. 1, a vinyl acetate adhesive having a width of about 5 mm is applied on the upper surface of the substrate (1), and then a transparent EVOH film (manufactured by Kuraray Co., Ltd.) is laminated,
A single calender is formed by bonding.
At that time, in the base material (1) and the film (2), the portions which are not adhered with an adhesive are electrostatically adhered to each other to prevent the aroma of the fragrance ink from volatilizing spontaneously. When using, peel off this transparent film and use.

A film having a gas barrier property may be laminated on the back surface of the base material in order to prevent the aroma of the fragrance ink from leaking from the back surface of the base material. In addition, 7 or 1
The same applies to the calendar of three sheets, since the base material and the film are electrostatically adhered, the calender is formed by binding only the upper part with metal fittings, etc. until the fragrance ink is used, the fragrance will naturally come out. Prevents volatilization. Also, by laminating a film having a gas barrier property on the back surface of the base material, it is possible to prevent the fragrance of the fragrance ink from leaking from the back surface of the base material, to volatilize the fragrance of the next page, and to prevent both fragrances from mixing. You can also <Embodiment 2> FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the construction of the second embodiment of the present invention, in which a flower pattern is changed depending on the month in a calendar of 7 sheets so that the scent can be enjoyed. That is, paper is used as the base material (1) of the calendar, the character portion and the pattern portion are formed in the printed portion (2) on the surface thereof using a fragrance ink, and a resin having a gas barrier property on the back surface of the base material. Is coated and the top is bound.

The base material (1) paper is a high-quality paper (basis weight: 8
(1.4 g / square meter), various flower patterns are formed monthly. For example, Ume in January and February,
May and June are roses, September and October are cosmos, and so on.
The pattern is changed for each sheet of the calendar. At this time, the fragrance ink for forming the pattern is 100 to 2
The same fragrances of flowers as the pictures drawn on the calendar were adsorbed on 00 mesh silica gel, such as plums in January and February and roses in May and June, and these fragrances were added in the same manner as in Example 1. Using printing ink kneaded in about 20% by weight, printing is performed monthly by the gravure printing method. As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the back surface of the base material (1) is coated with polyvinylidene chloride resin. After coating and laminating them in close contact with the surface of the next page, a vinyl acetate adhesive is applied to the upper part with a width of about 10 mm, and is fixed and cured by hot pressing with a hot press to form a calendar. Also, the adhesive may be applied to the upper side surface.

EFFECTS OF THE INVENTION By printing with an aromatic ink, it is possible to eliminate the "after-touch feeling" which is caused by the structural bonding between the calender and the aromatic agent. Also, since it is the same in appearance as a normal calendar, it is felt that the added value of other mechanisms such as aromaticity is higher. Furthermore, a film having a barrier property is laminated on the front surface or the back surface of the calendar and adhered by static electricity to prevent natural aroma and enjoy the aroma of each month.
