By the way, the concealment label 22 that is generally attached to a postcard or the like has confidential information printed near or adjacent to the address column on the front surface of the postcard, and there is no confidentiality such as a notice on the back surface of the postcard. Information is printed. The confidential information includes short information such as the deposit balance of the bank. However, recently, it has been required to increase the amount of confidential information, such as more detailed description of personal confidential information such as a deposit / withdrawal breakdown. So, I want to write confidential information on the back of the postcard.
Since the information originally printed on the back side of the postcard can no longer be printed, and it is necessary to change the format of the print field or change the plate, there is a problem that the cost is very high.

The concealment label of the present invention has been made by paying attention to such a problem, and does not change the printing column or the printing column already described on the adherend such as a postcard, and moreover, It is an object to provide a concealment label that can increase the amount of information.

[0005]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the concealment label according to claim 1 of the present invention adheres to a release paper and easily adheres to the release paper on the surface of paper or synthetic resin. Is a transparent film that is attached to the attaching surface via an adhesive layer that strongly adheres, and a translucent resin layer that is formed on the surface of this transparent film and that is peeled off in a non-re-adhesive manner and that has a pseudo adhesive property. , An adhesive layer that adheres to the transparent resin layer, and a cover sheet that has a concealing layer that adheres to the adhesive layer on the back surface, and the pseudo resin layer is provided on either the transparent resin layer or the adhesive layer. A printing layer that can be read through the translucent resin layer is provided after the adhesive is peeled off.

The method of manufacturing a concealing label according to claim 2 of the present invention is the method of manufacturing a concealing label according to claim 1,
After printing on the surface of either the adhesive layer of the cover or the transparent resin layer, the cover and the transparent resin layer are fixed to each other.

In addition, various personal information can be printed on either the light-transmitting resin layer or the adhesive layer by printing in multicolor or single color by a printing device such as offset printing or a printer such as a personal computer or a word processor. Can easily and abundantly convey the amount of information of.

Reverse printing or normal printing can be selected for printing so that the information is legitimate when viewed through the translucent resin. In particular, when printing is performed on the adhesive layer side, it is possible to perform normal printing without inverting the printed characters.

[0009]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, a concealing label and a manufacturing method thereof according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In this embodiment, the concealment label 1 is
For example, it is used for postcards for payment reminder, and when the release paper 8 is peeled off, information such as notice appears on the back side of the cover 7. The concealment label 1 includes a transparent film 2, a light-transmissive resin 3, a printing layer 4, an adhesive layer 5, a concealment layer 6, a cover sheet 7, a release paper 8 and an adhesive layer 9. A printing layer 10 is formed on the surface of the cover sheet 7.

In the concealing label 1, a transparent film 2 is coated with a transparent resin 3 for pseudo-adhesion, and a printing layer 4 is formed on the transparent resin layer 3 in this embodiment. The printing layer 4 is printed so as to be recognized as normal information when viewed through the translucent resin layer 3, and in the case of character information or image information having a left / right difference, printing in which the front and back of the character are reversed may be performed. Done.

As the transparent film 2, polyolefin, polyester, polyvinyl chloride or the like is used. The translucent resin 3 is made of a material such as acrylic ink or varnish, and the printing layer 4 formed by a printer, a printing device, an image forming device, or the like is formed on the translucent resin 3. As a method of forming the print layer 4, in this embodiment, printing is performed by letterpress printing, offset printing, or the like.
Other methods include a method of forming characters / images by a printer connected to a personal computer such as a thermal transfer type, a wire dot type, an ink jet type, a laser printer type, or a method of transferring ink by a method such as indirect transfer. In the present invention, the concept of printing includes printing by these printers and transfer printing. Although the printed layer 4 is formed on the translucent resin 3 in this embodiment, it may be formed on the adhesive layer 5 on the surface of the cover layer 6 of the cover sheet 7.

As the cover sheet 7, a sheet generally called tack paper is used, and the cover layer 6 is formed on the back surface by printing a cover ink such as gray or black. The concealing layer 6 includes an adhesive layer 5 that adheres onto the print layer 4 and the light-transmitting resin 3.
Are formed. The adhesive layer 5 is made of, for example, a synthetic resin adhesive such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, acrylic emulsion, rubber or the like, which has good adhesiveness to the translucent resin 3. The adhesive force of the adhesive layer 5 for adhering the transparent resin layer 3 and the concealing layer 6 is the transparent film 2
Is larger than the adhesive force between the transparent resin 3 and the transparent resin 3.

The transparent film 2 is adhered to the attaching surface 8A of the release paper 8 via the adhesive layer 9. Adhesive layer 9 and release paper 8
The adhesive strength between the transparent film 2 and the translucent resin 3 is weaker than the pseudo adhesive strength due to the smooth and weak adhesive surface 8A of the release paper 8. However, the adhesive force when the adhesive layer 9 is adhered to a piece of paper such as a postcard or a plastic film is larger than the adhesive force of the adhesive layer 5. The cover sheet 7 and the transparent film 2 are cut into a label having a desired shape by a half-pressing press.

This concealment label 1 has a release paper 8 attached surface 8
A transparent film 2 is adhered to A via an adhesive layer 9, and a transparent resin layer 3 is formed on this transparent film 2, while an adhesive layer 5 is formed on the cover layer 6 of a cover sheet 7 having a cover layer 6 on the back surface. The coating is applied to the translucent resin layer 3 or the adhesive layer 5 by, for example, offset printing or printing by a printer to form the printed layer 4, and the cover layer 7 of the cover sheet 7 is fixed by the adhesive layer 5.
Even if the printing layer 4 is interposed between the adhesive layer 5 and the translucent resin layer 3, the area of the printed character is smaller than the area of the non-printed portion, so that the fixing is sufficiently performed. When the stack of release paper 8 to cover sheet 7 is formed, the cover sheet 7 is removed by half-pressing the press machine.
Is cut into a desired shape.

According to this concealment label 1, since the surface of the transparent film 2 is coated with the transparent adhesive resin 3 for pseudo-adhesion, and the printing layer 4 is formed on the transparent resin layer 3, offset printing or Multi-color or single-color printing can be performed with an editing / proofing machine such as a personal computer or a word processor printer, and the cost is much lower than with gravure printing. When the translucent resin layer 3 and the cover sheet 7 are adhered to each other via the adhesive layer 5 after the printing layer 4 is formed on the translucent resin layer 3, the back surface on the adhesive layer 5 side has black or low brightness. By using the cover sheet 7 in which a dark layer is formed in a single layer or a plurality of layers or a metal foil is formed, it is possible to make the hidden information invisible from the front surface side of the cover sheet 7.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, the concealment label 1 from which the release paper 8 is peeled off is attached to the communication field of the postcard 11 and sent to the recipient, and when the recipient pulls the cover sheet 1, the transparent film 2 Peeling occurs at the boundary between the transparent resin 3 and the transparent resin 3, and the transparent film 2 remains in the communication column of the postcard 11, while the print layer is formed on the back surface side of the concealment label 1 as shown in FIG. 4 can be seen through the translucent resin 3. Since the concealment layer 1 is provided on the concealment label 1, the concealed information of the print layer 4 cannot be seen from the print layer 10 side of the front cover 7.

Further, unlike the one in which the sticking and peeling can be repeated many times like the one in which characters and images are displayed on the back surface of the adhesive label, in this concealment label 1, the one opened for pseudo-adhesion is Since they cannot be pasted again, the leakage of confidential information can be instantly identified and the confidentiality is improved.

Further, by recording the secret information on the concealment label 1 side, it is not necessary to change the layout of the notice or the like printed in advance on the adherend side, and the information amount of the secret information can be increased. Of course, it is also possible to record confidential information on the side of an adherend such as a postcard. It is also possible to print confidential information on a transparent film. When the secret information is recorded on the concealment label 1 side, the information writing surface on the adherend side is widened while being unaffected by the shape of the print / printing column of the adherend. Further, since the confidential information on the label cannot be collated with the address name etc. written on the postcard, the confidentiality of the information after opening is improved. The concealment label may be used for a speed lottery ticket or a coupon ticket in addition to being attached to a communication column such as a postcard.

[0020]

According to the concealment label of the first aspect of the invention and the method of manufacturing the concealment label of the second aspect, since information is printed or printed on the side of the concealment label, the amount of information can be increased.

Reverse printing or normal printing can be selected for printing so that the information is legitimate when viewed through the translucent resin. In particular, when printing is performed on the adhesive layer side, since it is possible to perform normal printing without inverting the printed characters, it is possible to reduce the cost without labor.
