Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial application field This invention is a multi-layered postcard for concealing text that is pasted on the surface of the postcard, with the main purpose of concealing the contents of the postcard all the way to the addressee. Regarding attachments.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Recently, attempts have been made to conceal the contents of a postcard from the addressee as an advertising means for product sales. In this case, if the surface of the postcard is simply covered with a paper cover, it will be treated as a sealed letter, which is disadvantageous in terms of fees, since the inside is empty. Therefore, in order to be treated as a postcard, a multilayer postcard, in which the surface of the postcard is removably attached to the entire surface, may be used.

Conventional multilayer postcards consist of a postcard as a base material and a cover paper that is removably attached to the surface of the postcard, but in order to make the cover paper removable,
The surface of the postcard is laminated with a transparent synthetic resin coating. When the cover paper pasted on the film was peeled off, the letters, designs, etc. on the surface of the postcard (hereinafter referred to as the text of the postcard) became visible through the film. Therefore, when you want to send multi-layered postcards, you need equipment that can perform lamination, and generally you order from a printing company or advertising company that is equipped with that equipment, which is a cumbersome process. Not only is
After writing the text on the postcard, the postcard must be laminated, which can be expensive when the number of postcards is small.
Therefore, it had an unavoidable structural drawback that it could not be used as a mere personal letter.

Purpose of the invention In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the purpose of this invention is to
The postcard itself does not require any processing; simply pressing it against the surface of the postcard creates a multi-layered structure, making it suitable for all kinds of uses, including personal correspondence. To provide a multi-layered attachment for concealing the text of a postcard, which exposes a transparent surface on the surface of the postcard that has cosmetic properties comparable to those of lamination.

Structure of the invention The structure of this invention to achieve the above object is as follows: a transparent film, an opaque cover paper that is removably attached to the upper surface of the transparent film and makes it impossible to read the text on the postcard, and a transparent film. It consists of a transparent adhesive applied to the bottom surface of the postcard for adhesion to the surface of the postcard, and the peel strength of the cover paper against the transparent film is lower than the peel strength of the transparent film against the postcard, and it is attached to the surface of the postcard via the transparent adhesive. The purpose of this method is to hide the text on the postcard, and by peeling off the cover paper at the addressee, the text on the postcard can be read through the transparent film. When making a postcard multi-layered to hide the text, the transparent film is attached to the surface of the postcard via the transparent adhesive on the underside, and the addressee peels off only the cover paper from the transparent film to create a transparent film. Can see and read the text on postcards through the film.

Example A multi-layer attachment (hereinafter simply referred to as a multi-layer attachment) for postcard text concealment (hereinafter simply referred to as a multi-layer attachment) M is
It consists of a cover sheet L, a transparent film F made of synthetic resin, and a release paper P (FIGS. 1 and 2).

The cover sheet L is made of opaque paper that makes it impossible to read the characters on the postcard, and an adhesive 10 is applied to the bottom surface. However, even if the cover sheet L has a label, sticker, or sticker printed on its upper surface, this does not contradict the spirit of this invention. In addition, cover paper L can be made of not only paper, but also
Synthetic paper made from synthetic resin can also be used.

A cover sheet L is pasted on the upper surface of the transparent film F with an adhesive 10 on the lower surface, and a transparent adhesive 11 is applied on the lower surface.
has been applied. As the transparent film F, in addition to vinyl chloride film, for example, polypropylene film, polyethylene film, polyester film, etc. can also be used. It is assumed that the adhesive force of the transparent adhesive 11 to paper is stronger than that of the adhesive 10.

The release paper P is formed by forming a polyethylene coating 13 on the upper surface of a base paper 12. Further, a back treatment agent is applied to the lower surface of the base paper 12, and a release agent made of silicone resin is applied to the upper surface of the coating 13 (not shown). A transparent film F is adhered to the upper surface of the release paper P via a transparent adhesive 11 on the lower surface thereof.

The cover paper L and the transparent film F underneath are formed to have the same shape with their edges aligned, but the release paper P is formed vertically longer than these, and has both upper and lower ends so that it can be easily peeled off. A part of the release paper P is made to protrude to provide knobs 14, 14. Further, on the upper surface of the cover sheet L, a peel-off guide 15 is written in the upper right corner, which reads "Kokoyorihagas".

When using a multi-layered attachment M with such a structure, it may be either government-made or privately-made, but postcard N
(Figures 3 to 5), its surface and
Required characters and designs are printed or handwritten on the surface of each multilayered attachment M. In the case of the same figure, an inn on the Noto Peninsula sends out a postcard for summer greetings, and the inn's advertisement is placed on the text of the postcard. Postcard N has the advertisement, and multilayer attachment M has " Summer greetings”
The text is included. Also, write the addressee on the back of postcard N. That is, the postcard N is used in the same way as a normal postcard.

In order to make this postcard N multi-layered to hide the text, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, first peel off the release paper P from the multi-layer attachment M, and then cover The attachment M is pressed and adhered via the transparent adhesive 11 on the lower surface (FIGS. 6 and 7). This completes the multi-layer postcard N, so the multi-layer postcard MN is mailed.

In the multi-layered postcard MN, the advertisement on the front of the postcard N is hidden by the cover sheet L, so the text cannot be read, and therefore the contents remain unexplored or secret. Delivered. however,
Anyone can tell at first glance that it is a summer greeting postcard.

The addressee who has received the multi-layered postcard MN can easily peel off the cover sheet L from the gap in the information display 15 where "Kokoyorihagasu" is written (FIGS. 8 and 9). Since postcard N is paper,
Since the adhesive force of the transparent film F to the postcard N is stronger than the adhesive force of the cover paper L to the transparent film F, that is, the peel strength of the cover paper L to the transparent film F is the same as that of the transparent film F to the postcard N. In this case, only the cover sheet L can be easily peeled off from the transparent film F.
There is no risk of accidentally peeling it off.

When the cover sheet L is peeled off, the advertising characters and designs written on the surface of the postcard N are visible through the transparent film F, so that the addressee becomes interested in the advertising content. I will know.

The text of the postcard that is written directly on the postcard N and hidden by the cover sheet L is not just an advertisement as in the previous example, but a letter related to the addressee's privacy, such as the text of a demand letter from a financial company. Therefore, the content of the letter may be one that is prohibited from being mailed as a postcard. This multilayer attachment M
Since the text of the postcard N does not need to be printed with a large amount of the same text, it can be particularly effectively used for such uses other than advertisements.

Other Embodiments The multilayer attachment M shown in FIG. 10 has the same cross-sectional structure as the previous embodiment, but has intermittent perforations at both the upper and lower ends of the cover sheet L along the edges. forming cuts 20, 20;
The end pieces 21, 21 on the outside of 20 are coated with adhesive 10.
It is attached to transparent film F by using an adhesive instead of. When configured in this way, it is necessary to separate the cover sheet L from the end pieces 21, 21 along the notches 20, 20 when peeling it off. Suitable.

FIG. 11 shows yet another embodiment,
By omitting the release paper P for protecting the transparent adhesive 11 on the lower surface of the transparent film F and winding the entire film into a roll, the lower surface of the transparent film F is attached to the cover paper through the transparent adhesive 11 on that surface. It is removably attached to the top surface of L. In order to enable this peeling, the upper surface of the cover sheet L is formed into a peelable surface by laminating a synthetic resin film or the like.

When using this multi-layered attachment M, it is rewound and pasted onto the postcard N, but since there is no release paper P, it is more advantageous in terms of cost and the work can be easily automated.

What is shown in FIGS. 12 and 13 is a release paper P
A transparent adhesive 1 is formed on the lower surface of the transparent film F in a portion where one end edge is formed to be smaller than the transparent film F and the cover sheet L, and which protrudes to the outside of the release paper P.
1 to the surface of the postcard N in advance. Transparent film F, cover paper L
Since it is flexible, this multilayer attachment M can be opened and closed with respect to the surface of the postcard N (as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 12). Therefore, by writing a letter on the front side of the postcard N with the entire postcard N turned up, and then pasting the entire postcard on the front side of the postcard N while peeling off the release paper P, the multi-layered postcard N is created. can be completed (double-dashed line in Figure 13). Since it is paired with postcard N in advance, not only is the work easier, but postcard N
Since the relative positioning is done between
The finish is even more elegant.

In the above description, the cover sheet L is a two-layer combination of aluminum foil and paper or synthetic resin film in order to further improve its opacity, and a thin aluminum film is deposited on the paper or synthetic resin film. Alternatively, the paper or synthetic resin film may be colored in a dark color, or the surface thereof may be printed in a dark color.

Effects of the invention As explained above, according to this invention, an opaque cover paper with the text of the postcard that cannot be read is removably attached to the top surface of a transparent film, and a transparent adhesive is applied to the bottom surface. By attaching it to the surface of a postcard using a transparent adhesive, it becomes easily integrated with the postcard, and the cover paper hides the text on the postcard so that it cannot be read, making it possible to hide the postcard itself. does not require any processing, just press it against the surface of the postcard to create a multi-layered,
The advantage is that the text on a postcard can be effectively concealed and kept secret all the way to the addressee, and therefore it can be easily and suitably applied to any purpose, including private correspondence, regardless of the number of postcards. It has a positive effect. In addition, since there is a difference in peel strength between the cover paper and the transparent film of a multi-layered postcard in this way, only the cover paper can be easily peeled off leaving the transparent film. There is no risk that the surface of the postcard will be damaged due to peeling of the cover paper, and the text of the postcard can be clearly displayed on the surface through the transparent film.

Furthermore, since a transparent film remains on the surface of the postcard, it is difficult to tamper with the text on the postcard, the finish is beautiful, and anyone can easily create multiple layers of postcards without the need for special equipment. It also has the excellent effect of being able to do the following.
