Description

Wristband

The present invention relates to wristbands.

At event venues and concerts, wristbands are used instead of admission tickets. Further, JP2020-38386A discloses a wristband used for identification of patients and examinees at medical institutions and the like.

A wristband such as that described in JP2020-38386A is formed with a breaking notch that breaks the band portion when the attached portion is to be peeled off so as to prevent unauthorized use between users. there is

However, with conventional tearing cuts, depending on the peeling direction, it may be possible to peel off without breaking the attached part, so there is room for improvement.

In view of the above, the present invention provides a wristband that is annularly formed by attaching an end portion, which is an attachment portion of the wristband, to a part of the band portion, wherein the end portion is removed when the end portion is peeled off from the band portion. To surely break a wristband so that it cannot be used as a wristband again.

According to an aspect of the present invention, a strip-shaped band portion and an adhesive portion formed by laminating an adhesive on one end of the band portion are provided, and the adhesive portion is attached to a part of the band portion. A wristband formed in a ring by attaching a wristband, wherein a plurality of first breaking cuts are radially formed in the end portion, and the first breaking cuts are two parallel lines. A first line segment and a second line segment that connects one end of the first line segment and is longer than the first line segment, and is formed by the first line segment and the second line segment A wristband is provided that is configured to direct the opening toward the radial center.

According to one aspect of the present invention, at the ends of the strip-shaped band portion, there are two parallel first line segments and a second line segment that connects one end of the first line segments and is longer than the first line segment. A first breaking cut is formed radially so as to direct the opening formed by the first line segment and the second line segment toward the radial center. Therefore, when the end portion is peeled off from the band portion inward from the outer edge side of the end portion, the end portion is cleaved at the second line segment of the first breaking cut, and along the pair of first line segments As a result, the cleavage spreads and the end breaks beyond the terminal end of the first line segment. Since such first breaking cuts are formed radially, when the end of the wristband is to be peeled off from the band portion, the end cannot maintain the state before sticking, and It becomes impossible to form a ring.

[Wristband]
FIG. 1 is a plan view of a wristband 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, viewed from the surface side. FIG. 2 is a plan view of the wristband 1 as seen from the back side. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line III-III in FIG.

In the present embodiment, the surface of the wristband 1 is the surface on which predetermined designs and characters are printed in advance. Further, the back surface of the wristband 1 is the surface opposite to the front surface, and is the surface that comes into contact with human skin.

The wristband 1 has a strip-shaped band portion 11 and an adhesive portion 12 formed on the back surface of one end portion 11a of the band portion 11 .

As shown in FIG. 3, the band portion 11 is formed by laminating a thermal substrate 21 and a back substrate 22 with a laminate layer 23 . A separator S is temporarily attached to the adhesive portion 12 formed on the back surface of the end portion 11a. Note that the separator S is not shown in FIG. 1 for the sake of clarity of the drawing.

As shown in FIG. 3, the thermal base material 21 is obtained by providing a surface base material 21a with a thermosensitive coloring layer 21b. Therefore, the surface of the wristband 1 is composed of the thermal base material 21 on which the thermosensitive coloring layer 21b is arranged.

Materials applicable to the surface base material 21a include a single resin film such as polyvinyl chloride, polyethylene terephthalate, polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyethylene naphthalate, or a multilayer film obtained by laminating a plurality of these resin films.

In addition to the above resin film substrates, paper substrates such as cardboard, high-quality paper, medium-quality paper, or coated paper obtained by appropriately forming a coating layer on these can be used.

In this embodiment, the thickness of the surface base material 21a can be 10 μm or more and 300 μm or less. When paper is used as the surface base material 21a, it is possible to use one having a thickness of 50 μm or more and 260 μm or less within the above range, and usually 80 μm is preferable.

When a resin film is used as the surface substrate 21a, the surface substrate 21a can have a thickness of 25 μm or more and 200 μm or less, and in particular, a thickness of 10 μm to 200 μm. These can be appropriately selected depending on the application.

The thermosensitive coloring layer 21b is made of a material that develops color by heat scanning of a thermal head of a printer (not shown).

The back base material 22 constitutes the back surface of the wristband 1 . The back base material 22 is embossed. Thereby, air permeability can be ensured between human skin. In addition, the embossing imparts cushioning properties to the back base material 22, making it soft against the skin.

The laminate layer 23 is polyethylene resin in this embodiment. The thermal base material 21 and the back base material 22 are heat-sealed with molten polyethylene resin. For the laminate layer 23, any material that is usually used as an adhesive for lamination can be appropriately used. As an example, an acrylic-based, urethane-based, silicone-based, rubber-based pressure-sensitive adhesive or adhesive can be used.

Examples of adhesives that form the adhesive portion 12 include acrylic, urethane, silicone, rubber, and other adhesives.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in the wristband 1, the end portion 11a of the band portion 11 where the adhesive portion 12 is formed is formed with a breaking notch 13. As shown in FIGS.

As shown in FIG. 3, the breaking cut 13 is a cut that penetrates the band portion 11 and is formed at the position of the adhesive portion 12 arranged at the end portion 11a.

FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the wristband 1 according to this embodiment. The wristband 1 is used in a ring shape by wrapping it around the wrist and attaching the adhesive portion 12 formed on the back surface of the end portion 11a to a part of the front surface of the band portion 11. - 特許庁Since the adhesive portion 12 can be attached to any position on the surface of the band portion 11, the ring diameter is adjustable.

The arrow P shown in FIG. 4 is for explaining the direction in which the end portion 11a is torn off. The direction of arrow P in FIG. 4 corresponds to the direction of arrow P shown in FIG. 6 described later.

Next, the breaking notch 13 will be described. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating one cutting element 30 of the breaking cut 13. As shown in FIG.

The cutting element 30 is formed by connecting two parallel

first line segments

31 and 32 and a second line segment 33 . The second line segment 33 connects one end 31 a and the end 32 a of the

first line segments

31 and 32 , and the second line segment 33 is longer than the

first line segments

31 and 32 .

In addition, in the

first line segments

31 and 32, the

ends

31b and 32b opposite to the

ends

31a and 32a connected by the second line segment 33 are bent toward the inside of the opening 34 and bent. It forms

parts

35 and 36 .

In this embodiment, the

bent portions

35 and 36 and the connecting portions between the

first line segments

31 and 32 and the second line segment 33 are formed by curved lines. For this reason, tearing at the cutting element 30 tends to progress with respect to the tearing off of the end portion 11a.

In this embodiment, the cutting element 30 is in the shape of the letter "C" in the Agency-FB font.

In this embodiment, a plurality of cut elements 30 described above are radially formed in the end portion 11a. Also, the cutting element 30 is formed so as to direct the opening 34 formed by the

first line segments

31, 32 and the second line segment 33 toward the radial center.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a plurality of breaking cuts 13 formed in the end portion 11a.

The breaking cuts 13 include a plurality of first breaking cuts 131 (hereinafter referred to as first cuts 131) and a plurality of second breaking cuts 133 (hereinafter referred to as second cuts 133). , a plurality of third breaking cuts 135 (hereinafter referred to as third cuts 135). In this embodiment, the first cut 131 , the second cut 133 and the third cut 135 each correspond to the cut element 30 .

In this embodiment, there are

first insertions

131a, 131b, 131c, and 131d. There are also

second cuts

133a, 133b, 133c, and 133d. There are also

third cuts

135a, 135b, 135c and 135d.

When the first inserts 131a to 131d are not distinguished from each other, they are referred to as the first insert 131 without using alphabetic branch numbers. The same applies to the description of the later-described configuration including the second cut.

The

first indentations

131a, 131b, 131c, and 131d are formed radially. Adjacent first indentations 131 are formed discontinuously. A second incision 133 having the same shape as the first incision 131 and being discontinuous with the first incision 131 is formed outside the first incision 131 in the radial direction.

That is, the second cut 133a is formed outside the first cut 131a in the radial direction. A second cut 133b is formed outside the first cut 131b in the radial direction. A second cut 133c is formed outside the first cut 131c in the radial direction. A second cut 133d is formed outside the first cut 131d in the radial direction.

In addition, a third cut 135 that is discontinuous to the first cut 131 and the second cut 133 is formed outside the discontinuous portion 132 between the adjacent first cuts 131 in the radial direction.

That is, a third cut 135a is formed on the outer side in the radial direction of the discontinuous portion 132a. A third cut 135b is formed on the radially outer side of the discontinuous portion 132b. A third cut 135c is formed on the radially outer side of the discontinuous portion 132c. A third notch 135d is formed outside the discontinuous portion 132d in the radial direction.

Also, in this embodiment, a central cut 136 is formed at the radial center of the breaking cut 13 . The opening direction of the central cut 136 is arbitrary. The opening direction of the central cut 136 may be formed to be the same as the opening direction of any one of the first cut 131, the second cut 133, and the third cut 135. It may be formed so as not to coincide with the opening direction of the cut.

The wristband 1 according to the present embodiment has an annular shape with a breaking notch 13 formed in the end portion 11a. When it is torn off from the band portion 11, the breaking notch 13 is opened and the end portion 11a is broken.

As an example, the case of peeling off the end portion 11a along the direction of the arrow P shown in FIGS. 4 and 6 will be described.

In this case, the second cut 133a is cleaved along the radial direction, and the area A defined by the second cut 133a remains on the surface of the band portion 11, and the periphery of the area A is peeled off.

In this embodiment,

bent portions

35 and 36 are formed in the first cut 131 and the second cut 133 (the cut element 30), as shown in FIG. As a result, the width of the portion that stays on the surface of the band portion 11 is narrowed, so that the

bent portions

35 and 36 are likely to break.

Even after the cleavage of the second cut 133a reaches the end portions (bent portions 35, 36) of the second cut 133a, if the second cut 133a is further peeled off, the gap between the first cut 131a and the second cut 133a The peeling stress concentrates on the discontinuous portion, and the discontinuous portion breaks.

In addition, along with the rupture of this discontinuous portion, the cleavage progresses along the first indentation 131a, so that the area B defined by the first incision 131a remains on the surface of the band portion 11, and the periphery of the area B is removed. is torn off. As a result, breakage of the end portion 11a at the discontinuous portion progresses.

As described above, in the wristband 1 according to the present embodiment, at this point, the history of peeling off the end portion 11a of the ring-shaped band portion 11 becomes visually clear. In addition, since the end portion 11a is no longer in the state before being attached to the band portion 11 after being peeled off, it is no longer possible to form the ring shape again. Therefore, the wristband 1 cannot be reused.

For this reason, the wristband 1 according to the present embodiment can be suitably used as a substitute for admission tickets at event venues, concerts, and the like.

FIG. 7 is a perspective view explaining a continuous body of the wristband 1 according to this embodiment. The wristband 1 is provided in the form of a roll-shaped continuum R, as an example. In the continuum R, the boundary between the wristband 1 and the wristband 2 is perforated 40 for separation.

The continuum R is set in a printer (not shown) and printed on the thermal base material 21 of the band portion 11 while being drawn out in the direction of arrow F in FIG.

In this embodiment, the continuum R is formed so that the breaking cut 13 is on the rear side of the feeding direction F of the continuum R, that is, on the upstream side in the conveying direction.

For example, when a thermal printer is used, the continuum R is fed while sliding against the thermal head during printing. In this embodiment, since the first cut 131, the second cut 133 and the third cut 135 are formed with curved portions, the thermal head slides on the surface of the band portion 11 to move. When printing, the thermal head and the cut 13 for breakage are less likely to get caught, and the circumference of the cut 13 for breakage is not rolled up during printing.
