Such a pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape, the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot group on the base material surface, the application surface of the member to be bonded is brought into contact with and pressed and separated, the pressure-sensitive adhesive dots in the area where the application surface is in contact Is transferred to the application surface away from the base material, and this can be used to impart tackiness to the application surface.

[0003] Such an adhesive transfer tape is convenient because the adhesive can be supplied to the application surface by a simple operation without directly touching the finger to the adhesive. Only the amount of adhesive dots corresponding to the shape and area of the application surface is transferred from the tape for application, and the non-transferred adhesive dots around it remain in a usable state, so that there is little waste. is there.

[0004] Conventionally, a tape for transferring an adhesive when supplied as a commercial product is in the form of a roll, and is usually wound up together with a peelable tape.
In order to prevent the adhesive dots from adhering to the back surface side of the tape base material having no release property, the tape base material is formed into a roll shape with the peelable tape interposed.

[0005] However, such a roll-shaped pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape cannot be distributed as a commercial product as it is, that is, in a bare state. This is because the roll has a cylindrical shape and is difficult to handle, and there is no possibility that the properties of the pressure-sensitive adhesive are degraded due to foreign matter such as dust entering.

Under the circumstances described above, in order to actually handle the roll-shaped adhesive transfer tape as a commercial product, it is necessary to store the adhesive transfer tape in an individual packaging container such as a carton or a bag. is necessary. However, when such an individual packaging container is used, it is, of course, necessary to prepare a packaging container suitable for the roll, store a product tape therein, and further seal it. In order to perform the operation automatically or in mass production, a large-scale device is required.

[0007] In addition to the above, in the roll-shaped pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape, since a certain degree or more of tension is applied during winding in the manufacturing process, the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot is deformed when the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot is thick. There are cases. Also,
For use, a dedicated device such as a dispenser or a cutter is required.

More specifically, the base 12 is made of, for example, a sheet material in which a release resin film is coated on one surface of a cardboard and a release surface 13 is formed, and the developed state is shown in FIG. It is assumed that In the drawing, 14 is a front wall portion, 15 is a lower bottom wall portion, and 16 is a back wall portion, and a lower width lower bottom wall portion 15 having a small width above a front wall portion 14 through a valley fold line a shown by a chain line. Is connected to the lower bottom wall portion 1
The rear wall portion 16 is connected to the upper side of the base 5 via a valley fold line b. Here, the front wall portion 14 and the rear wall portion 16 have the same shape as each other, and have a rectangular shape close to a square in the illustrated example.

First flaps 18, 18 are formed on the left and right side edges of the front wall portion 14 via valley fold lines c, c, respectively, and a small width is formed on the lower edge via a valley fold line d. An upper bottom wall portion 17 is connected, and a relatively small semicircular locking tongue piece 20 is formed at the center of the lower edge of the upper bottom wall portion 17 so as to project downward. Also, following the lower edges of the first flaps 18, 18, the joining tongue pieces 19, 1
9 is formed so as to be continuous with the upper bottom wall portion 17 through a cut.

The distance S between the adjacent adhesive dots D is 0.5 to 3 mm,
Height H is 50-200 μm.

Further, the whole shape of the unit of the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot D does not need to be a film as shown in FIG. 5, but may be a hemisphere or a mountain. The planar shape is not limited to a circle, but may be a square, an ellipse, or any of various other shapes. Further, the arrangement of the adhesive dots D is not particularly limited, and may be a lattice point arrangement, another regular arrangement, or a random arrangement instead of the staggered arrangement as shown in FIG. Further, it is not essential that all the pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D have the same shape. For example, a pressure-sensitive adhesive dot group including pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D having different diameters can be formed for each pressure-sensitive adhesive dot forming region.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive constituting the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot D is not particularly limited as long as it has the required tackiness at room temperature, and the specific material is not limited. Known adhesives such as hot melt adhesives and acrylic adhesives can be used.

As described above, the base material 12 in which the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 are formed in the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot forming areas 30 and 31 of the release surface 13 has the valley fold lines a to e bent at right angles. As a result, the box-shaped packaging container B is formed. Specifically, as is clear from FIGS. 2 and 3, in a state in which the surface on which the adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 are formed becomes the inner surface,
The front wall portion 14 and the rear wall portion 16 are opposed to each other and extend in parallel via an essentially cubic internal space G (see FIG. 3), and the first flaps 18, 18 and the second Are overlapped with each other to form a side wall F, and the side wall F, the lower bottom wall portion 15 and the upper bottom wall portion 17 are formed.
Thus, the peripheral wall of the rectangular cylindrical body is formed.

The joining tongues 19, 19 are overlapped on both ends of the upper bottom wall portion 17 and joined by an adhesive, and the locking tongue 20 protruding from the upper bottom wall portion 17 is formed in the slit 24. It is inserted and locked with the rear wall portion 16,
Thereby, the box-shaped packaging container B is completed. The locking tongue 20 may be glued or fixed behind the back wall portion 16 by any suitable means.

Further, on the outer surface of the box-shaped packaging container B constructed as described above, which has no releasability, a usage description column 50 describing the usage of the pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tool is provided.

The location of the usage explanation column 50 is not limited to the front wall portion 14 but may be provided at any location on the outer surface of the box-shaped packaging container B, and may be provided on the hanging tongue piece 22. It is. 51 is a product name description column.

In the pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tool 10 configured as described above, the box-shaped packaging container B that defines the internal space G by the base material 12 is formed, and the front surface of the base material 12 facing the internal space G is configured. Since the adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 are provided on the inner surfaces of the wall portion 14 and the rear wall portion 16, respectively, by expanding the packaging container B, FIG.
Thus, the adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 in the adhesive dot formation regions 30 and 31 can be exposed.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive dot groups 40, 4
1 is formed on the releasable surface 13, and when an application surface of a desired bonding target member is pressed against the release surface 13, the adhesive dot D adheres to the application surface by its own adhesiveness, and 12, the adhesiveness can be imparted to the application surface of the target member by the adhesive. Therefore, the member to be bonded can be bonded to the target surface by pressing the application surface of the member to be bonded to the desired target surface. In this case, no special equipment is required. Then, in the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 of the base material 12, the pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D in a region according to the shape of the application surface are lost from the base material 12, but the remaining pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D are further similarly. To provide tackiness.

Thus, according to the pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tool 10 having the above-described structure, the base material 12 and the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot group 4
In addition, the adhesive dot group functions as a support material or a carrier for 0, 41 and, on the other hand, itself is also configured as a box-shaped packaging container B, so that a separate packaging container is not required, and the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot group can be externally used as it is. It can be handled as an independent product protected from, and can be provided to consumers as it is.

A peripheral wall connecting the both is formed on the entire circumference of. The peripheral wall actually functions as a spacer for preventing the front wall portion 14 and the rear wall portion 16 from approaching each other, so that the two adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 approach each other and adhere to each other. Interference is prevented,
The shape and position of the adhesive dot D do not change.

Here, the width dimension of the lower bottom wall portion 15 and the like functioning as a spacer is determined by the so-called stiffness of the sheet material forming the base material 12, the area and shape of the front wall portion 14 or the rear wall portion 16, Since it differs depending on other conditions, it cannot be specified unconditionally, but it is sufficient that the front wall portion 14 and the back wall portion 16 have a size that does not locally contact each other.

In the production of such an adhesive transfer tool, the base material 12 having the adhesive dot groups 40 and 41 formed on the releasable surface is bent into a box-shaped packaging container B and molded.
Since it is only necessary to bond the appropriate places with an adhesive or the like, the production is very simple, mass production is easy with automated machinery and equipment, and the production cost is low because individual packaging containers are unnecessary. It will be. Of course, a large number of pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tools can be accommodated in a packing container such as a carton for convenience in transportation in the product distribution process.

Further, since the hanging tongue piece 22 extending from the packaging container B is provided on the base material 12, the adhesive transfer tool 10 can be displayed as a product at a retail store or the like using the hanging tongue piece 22. Is convenient. Furthermore, since the outer surface of the base material 12 is a normal sheet surface, the usage description column 50 can be provided by a normal method, for example, printing.

In the pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tool 10, in the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot group forming regions 30, 31, the releasable surface 13 of the region and the pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D on the releasable surface are separated by the pressure-sensitive adhesive. It is preferable that the presence or absence of the dot D has a difference in visual recognition characteristics that is visually determined. For example, the substrate 12
It is preferable that the color tone of the releasable surfaces of the pressure-sensitive adhesive dot forming regions 30 and 31 be different from the color of the pressure-sensitive adhesive dots D on the releasable surfaces. Thus, in the adhesive dot forming areas 30 and 31, it is possible to determine at a glance a portion where the adhesive dot D is already used and a portion where the adhesive dot D does not exist.
