- the ratio of the circumference of the maximum diameter portion Dm to the minimum diameter portion Ds is 1.05 to 1.75, or 1.10 to 1.60, or 1.20. Even if it is ⁇ 1.50, the tubular stretch label 10 is mounted with a good appearance as shown in FIG.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 can be suitably used for a portion having no diameter difference. Since the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached in a stretched state in the circumferential direction, the tubular stretch label 10 can be attached to the container in a stretched state so as to have excellent stretch characteristics. For this reason, since the label excellent in a stretch characteristic can manufacture a labeled container using the cylindrical stretch label 10 with a small perimeter, material cost can be reduced. Therefore, when the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached to a portion having no diameter difference (for example, a container body portion having no diameter difference), it is preferably attached in a state of being stretched 1.2 times or more in the circumferential direction. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be attached in a state of being expanded by about 1.01 to 1.05 times.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached in the stretched state as described above, a stress that tightens the container 21 is generated. By tightening the entire container with such stress, the container is prevented from being deformed by an external force, and the reinforcing effect of the container is exhibited.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached to a container such as a squeeze container or a tube container, the label follows the container shape even when the amount of the contents is reduced, The effect that favorable integrity can be secured is recognized. This is particularly effective for an olefin-based container that easily undergoes thermal expansion.
- the label will be reduced to the space where the cap was placed if the cap is removed while the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached. A tampering effect is found that makes it difficult to enter the diameter and attach the cap again.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 is attached to the container 21 using, for example, a stretch labeler.
- the stretch labeler is externally fitted to the container 21 in a state where the cylindrical stretch label 10 is stretched in the circumferential direction.
- the label is elastically contracted and attached to follow the container 21.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 is preferably attached in a state of being stretched in the circumferential direction by at least about 2%, and can be attached in a state of being stretched by about 60%.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 can be attached without heating. Since the container does not undergo thermal deformation when attached, the weight of the container can be reduced, and the contents can be decomposed and separated by heat. Can also be suppressed.
- the design of the above embodiment can be changed within a range that does not impair the object of the present invention.
- sticker part 13 formed by heat sealing is illustrated, a design change can be suitably carried out besides this.
- the cylindrical stretch label 10 can strongly bind a plurality of containers, and is also suitable for an integrated sales application.
- 4 to 6 are cross-sectional views showing seal portions 13x, 13y, and 13z having different joining forms. 4 to 6, the same components as those in the above embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted.
- the seal portion 13x illustrated in FIG. 4 is a so-called envelope-bonded joining form in which the inner surface of the edge 10xa located outside the cylindrical stretch label 10x and the outer surface of the edge 10xb located inside are joined by an adhesive 14. It is.
- the adhesive 14 is not particularly limited, and a thermoplastic resin-based or elastomer-based adhesive can be applied. Since the cylindrical stretch label 10x is sealed using the adhesive 14, the printing layer 12 can be formed on the entire inner surface of the film base 11.
- a non-joining portion that is not joined to the edge 10xb is extended from the seal portion 13x and provided with a knob 15 at the end of the edge 10xa located outside the cylindrical body.
- the non-joined portion does not exist at the edge 10xb located inside the cylindrical body.
- pick part 15 is a part utilized when peeling the cylindrical stretch label 10x from the container 21, Comprising: It has a size which can be picked with a fingertip at least.
- the perforation line does not have to be provided as the peeling means, so that the label is not easily broken during the mounting process and the distribution process, and the cylindrical stretch is disposed at the time of disposal.
- the label 10x can be easily peeled from the container 21.
- the seal portion 13x may have a configuration in which the entire area of the overlapping portion of the end edge 10xa and the end edge 10xb is joined except for the knob portion 15, but within a range that does not peel when stress is applied, such as when a label is attached.
- the adhesive strength may be weakened by applying the adhesive 14 in a predetermined pattern (for example, a stripe shape, a lattice shape, a dot shape, or the like). Or in order to weaken adhesive strength, you may apply the ink for glue suppression containing a silicone type resin etc. on the layer which consists of the adhesive agent 14 with a predetermined pattern.
- the seal portion 13x is broken when the knob portion 15 is picked and the cylindrical stretch label 10x is peeled off. Thus, the peelability of the label is further improved by appropriately suppressing the adhesive strength.
- the seal portion 13y illustrated in FIG. 5 is a so-called joint-bonded joining form in which the inner surfaces of one end edge 10ya and the other end edge 10yb of the cylindrical stretch label 10y are joined together.
- the inner surfaces of the seal portion 13y are joined by heat sealing. For this reason, the printed layer 12 is not formed on the seal portion 13y in order to ensure heat sealability.
- the seal portion 13z illustrated in FIG. 6 is a so-called joint-bonded joining form in which the outer surfaces of one end edge 10za and the other end edge 10zb of the cylindrical stretch label 10z are joined together.
- the seal portion 13z is formed by heat sealing similarly to the seal portion 13y.
- the seal portion 13z is a heat seal between the outer surfaces, the printing layer 12 can be formed on the entire inner surface of the film base 11 including the seal portion 13z. For this reason, if the printing layer 12 has coloring property, even if the film base material 11 is transparent, a clear part cannot be seen.
- the seal portions 13y and 13z may be formed using the adhesive 14.
