Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of label printing, and particularly relates to a printed label. Background Art

[0002] A thermal transfer label printer uses a special carbon ribbon. Through the working principle similar to that of a fax machine print head, the carbon powder coating on the carbon ribbon is transferred to a PET self-adhesive label or a label on other types of materials by heating. The label has strong weather resistance and is not easy to fade, and is mostly used for cable identification, equipment identification, switch identification, etc. in the fields of electric power, communication, building computer rooms, etc.

[0003] In order to form a protection for the printing area of the thermal transfer label by laminating, the thermal transfer label is usually set as a laminating part and a printing part. The printing part has marks such as the pattern of the label. Folding the laminating part and the printing part can make the laminating part cover the printing part to form a protection for the printing part. However, the existing thermal transfer labels still have defects. For example, when the label paper is printed in the printer, it will press against the print head and tilt severely, and the contact area between the print head and the printing part of the thermal transfer label is small, resulting in poor printing effect of the printing part. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the above technical deficiencies, and propose a printed label to solve the technical problems that when the label paper is printed in the printer, it will press against the print head and tilt severely, and the contact area between the print head and the printing part of the thermal transfer label is small, resulting in poor printing effect of the printing part.

[0005] To achieve the above technical purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The utility model provides a printed label, including:

[0007] A bottom release layer, having a printing area and a laminating area;

[0008] A printing unit, which is prominently arranged in the printing area; and

[0009] A laminating unit, which is prominently arranged in the laminating area. The printing unit and the laminating unit are located on the same side of the bottom release layer. The absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the laminating unit and the thickness of the printing unit does not exceed 0.15 mm. Wherein, the laminating unit and the printing unit are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the label roll paper, so that when the label roll paper feeds out paper, the laminating unit and the printing unit can be simultaneously pressed tightly by the rubber roller of the printer.

[0010] In some embodiments, the thickness of the laminating unit is not greater than the thickness of the printing unit.

[0011] In some embodiments, the thickness of the printing unit is less than that of the film laminating unit, and the difference between the thickness of the film laminating unit and the thickness of the printing unit is 0.01 - 0.1 mm.

[0012] In some embodiments, a release paper is provided on one side of the film laminating unit facing away from the film laminating area.

[0013] In some embodiments, the length of the printing unit is less than or equal to the length of the film laminating unit.

[0014] In some embodiments, the release paper includes a first part and a second part, there is a tear line between the first part and the second part, and the area of the film laminating unit corresponding to the second part is the same as the area of the printing unit.

[0015] In some embodiments, the direction of the tear line is parallel or perpendicular to the axis of the printed label.

[0016] In some embodiments, the film laminating unit includes a first adhesive layer, a protective layer, and a second adhesive layer that are stacked in sequence.

[0020] In some embodiments, the bottom release layer has a folding line, and the printing area and the film laminating area are symmetric about the folding line.

[0021] In some embodiments, the printing unit further includes a printed pattern layer, the printed pattern layer is adhered to the side of the label layer facing away from the third adhesive layer, and the thickness of the printed pattern layer is not greater than 0.01 mm.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the printing label provided by the present utility model has a printing unit and a film laminating unit respectively disposed in the printing area and the film laminating area of the bottom release layer.

[0031] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0032] In order to solve the technical problem that in the prior art, when a label paper is printed in a printer, it presses against the print head and tilts severely, and the contact area between the print head and the printing part of the thermal transfer label is small, resulting in poor printing effect of the printing part, the present utility model provides a printing label, which can achieve that when the label paper is printed inside the printer, it will not press against the print head and tilt severely, the contact area between the print head and the printing unit is large, and the print head has a good printing effect on the printing unit and high clarity.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 which is a schematic structural diagram of a printing label 100 in an embodiment of the present utility model. The printing label includes a bottom release layer 1, a printing unit 2 and a laminating unit 3. The bottom release layer 1 has a printing area 11 and a laminating area 12. The printing unit 2 protrudes and is arranged in the printing area 11, and the laminating unit 3 protrudes and is arranged in the laminating area 12. The printing unit 2 and the laminating unit 3 are located on the same side of the bottom release layer 1. The absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the laminating unit 3 and the thickness of the printing unit 2 does not exceed 0.15 mm. Among them, the laminating unit 3 and the printing unit 2 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the label roll paper 4, so that when the label roll paper 4 discharges paper, the laminating unit 3 and the printing unit 2 can be simultaneously pressed tightly by the rubber roller of the printer. It should be noted that the label roll paper 4 is formed by connecting the heads and tails of multiple printing labels 100 in sequence through a release dotted line 14 and winding. The label roll paper 4 can be rotatably arranged inside the printer, and its free end can extend out from the paper outlet of the printer. Driven by the rubber roller of the printer, the label roll paper 4 can rotate relative to the printer to gradually release the printing label 100. The axial direction of the label roll paper 4 is its rotation axis, which can also be understood as the width direction of the printing label 100, and the length direction of the printing label 100 is its moving direction in the printer. Adjacent printing labels 100 can be separated by tearing the release dotted line 14.

[0034] In this embodiment, the printing area 11 and the laminating area 12 of the bottom release layer 1 can be arranged at intervals, and the interval distance is not limited. For example, the interval is 2-8 mm, such as 2 mm, 5 mm, 8 mm, etc., so that the bottom release layer 1 can be directly folded through a folding line so that the laminating unit 3 covers the printing unit 2. The printing unit 2 and the laminating unit 3 are located on the same side of the bottom release layer 1, so that the rubber roller of the printer can simultaneously press against the printing unit 2 and the laminating unit 3 on the bottom release layer 1 and drive the printing label to be gradually output from the printer. The absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the laminating unit 3 and the thickness of the printing unit 2 does not exceed 0.15 mm, so that when the rubber roller simultaneously presses against the printing unit 2 and the laminating unit 3, the rubber roller will not tilt excessively, and the print head connected to the rubber roller will not tilt excessively either, and the print head has a good printing effect on the printing unit 2.

[0035] In one embodiment, the thickness of the film laminating unit 3 is not greater than the thickness of the printing unit 2. In this embodiment, if the thickness of the printing unit 2 is greater than that of the film laminating unit 3, during the printing process, the rubber roller first contacts the printing unit 2. Under the pressing of the printing unit 2, the print head tilts slightly, and the area where the print head contacts the printing unit 2 is relatively large, resulting in a good printing effect on the printing unit 2. If the thickness of the printing unit 2 is equal to that of the film laminating unit 3, then the rubber roller contacts the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 simultaneously, and neither the rubber roller nor the print head will tilt, and the printing effect of the print head on the printing unit 2 is better.

[0036] In one embodiment, the thickness of the printing unit is less than the thickness of the film laminating unit, and the difference between the thickness of the film laminating unit and the thickness of the printing unit is 0.01 - 0.1 mm. In this embodiment, the thickness of the film laminating unit 3 is greater than that of the printing unit 2, and the thickness difference needs to be between 0.01 - 0.1 mm, that is, the thickness difference should be relatively small. During the printing process, the rubber roller first contacts the film laminating unit 3. Under the pressing of the film laminating unit 3, the print head tilts slightly to contact the printing unit 2 for printing, which basically has little impact on the printing effect of the printing unit 2. It should be emphasized that in the actual processing of the label, there is no regulation on which one of the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 must be thicker, and it can be determined according to actual needs. After multiple tests, it is found that as long as the thickness difference between the two does not exceed 0.15 mm, the printing effect of the print head on the printing unit can meet the quality requirements.

[0037] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a release paper 34 is provided on the side of the film laminating unit 3 facing away from the film laminating area. The release paper 34 provided in this embodiment can cover the protective layer 31 of the film laminating unit 3 to protect the protective layer 31. When the protective layer 31 needs to be used, the release paper 34 can be torn off from the protective layer 31.

[0038] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1, the laminating unit 3 includes a first adhesive layer 32, a protective layer 31, and a second adhesive layer 33 that are stacked in sequence. The first adhesive layer 32 is connected to the bottom release layer 1, and the second adhesive layer 33 is connected to the release paper 34. The printing unit 2 includes a connected third adhesive layer 22 and a label layer 21. The side of the third adhesive layer 22 facing away from the label layer 21 is connected to the bottom release layer 1. The thickness of the label layer 21 is greater than the sum of the thicknesses of the first adhesive layer 32, the protective layer 31, and the second adhesive layer 33. In this embodiment, the protective layer 31 included in the laminating unit 3 is fixed to the bottom release layer 1 through the first adhesive layer 32. The second adhesive layer 33 is used to bond with the printing unit 2 when the bottom release layer 1 is flipped and folded, so that the protective layer 31 can be fixed on the printing unit 2 to form a protective effect on the printing unit 2. The release paper 34 is separably bonded to the protective layer 31 through the second adhesive layer 33, so that the release paper 34 is easy to tear off from the protective layer 31. The label layer 21 can be a custom-made identification information sticker with some texts, patterns, and colors mixed together for identification purposes.

[0039] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 , the length of the printing unit 2 is less than or equal to the length of the laminating unit 3. The length direction defined in this embodiment is the movement direction of the printed label in the printer. In the embodiment where the length of the laminating unit 3 is greater than the length of the printing unit 2, when the printer ejects paper, the rubber roller will first press tightly on the laminating unit 3. When continuing to eject paper, the rubber roller will press tightly on both the laminating unit 3 and the printing unit 2 at the same time. At this time, the risk of poor printing effect will be reduced. The part of the laminating unit 3 that extends beyond the printing unit 2 is close to the paper outlet of the printer, so that the rubber roller at the paper outlet can first press on the part of the laminating unit 3 that extends beyond the printing unit 2.

[0040] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 , the release paper 34 includes a first part 341 and a second part 342. There is a tear line 343 between the first part 341 and the second part 342. The area of the laminating unit 3 corresponding to the second part 342 is the same as the area of the printing unit 2. In this embodiment, during the process of combining the protective layer 31 and the label layer 21, the second part 342 of the release paper 34 can be torn off first, and then the bottom release layer 1 can be folded in half so that the protective layer 31 covers the label layer 21 to complete lamination. The area of the laminating unit 3 corresponding to the second part 342 in this embodiment is the same as the area of the printing unit 2, so that the protective layer 31 can completely cover the label layer 21, achieving a comprehensive protection effect. When tearing off the second part 342, one hand can hold the first part 341, and the other hand can tear off the second part 342, which can avoid contacting the protective layer 31 corresponding to the second part 342 and affecting the bonding effect between the protective layer 31 and the label layer 21.

[0041] In one embodiment, the direction of the tear line 343 is parallel or perpendicular to the axial direction of the printed label 100. Please refer to Figure 4 , in the embodiment where the direction of the tear line 343 is parallel to the axial direction of the printed label, the first part 341 of the release paper 34 is closer to the rubber roller of the printer than the second part 342. During the process of the printed label moving out from the paper outlet, the rubber roller first presses on the first part 341, and as the printed label moves, the rubber roller then presses on the second part 342. In this embodiment, the length of the first part 341 is greater than or equal to the length of the second part 342, so that when the rubber roller first presses on the part of the release paper 34 with a longer length, it is not easy to lift the release paper 34.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 , in the embodiment where the direction of the tear line 343 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the printed label, when the printed label moves, the rubber roller can press on both the first part 341 and the second part 342 of the release paper 34 at the same time. In this embodiment, there is no limit on the lengths of the first part 341 and the second part 342. Compared with the previous embodiment, in this embodiment, the rubber roller basically does not lift the release paper, and the stability of the release paper is better.

[0043] In one embodiment, the ratio of the area of the first part to the area of the second part is between 1:8 and 10:1. In this embodiment, the first part 341 of the release paper 34 is closer to the rubber roller of the printer than the second part 342. During the process of the printed label moving out from the paper outlet, the rubber roller first presses on the first part 341, and as the printed label moves, the rubber roller then presses on the second part 342.

[0044] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 In the embodiment shown, the ratio of the area of the first part 341 to the area of the second part 342 is 1:8. The ratio of the area of the first part 341 to the area of the second part 342 cannot be lower than 1:8, otherwise when the rubber roller presses on the tear line 343, it will roll up the second part 342. Since the area of the second part 342 is large, it has a great impact on the bonding performance of the second adhesive layer 33 corresponding to the lower part lifted by the second part 342. Therefore, the second part 342 cannot be too large.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 In the embodiment shown, the ratio of the area of the first part 341 to the area of the second part 342 is 10:1. The ratio of the area of the first part 341 to the area of the second part 342 cannot be greater than 10:1, because the rubber roller first presses on the first part 341 and then on the second part 342. When the rubber roller presses on the tear line 343, it will roll up the second part 342. Since the area of the second part 342 is small, it has a small impact on the bonding performance of the second adhesive layer 33 corresponding to the lower part lifted by the second part 342.

[0046] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 8 , the thickness of the first part 341 is greater than that of the second part 342. In this embodiment, the first part 341 of the release paper 34 is closer to the rubber roller 5 of the printer than the second part 342. During the process of the printed label moving out from the paper outlet, the rubber roller 5 first presses on the first part 341, and as the printed label moves, the rubber roller then presses on the second part 342. Since the thickness of the first part 341 is greater than that of the second part 342, the rubber roller 5 is not likely to lift the second part 342 when it first presses against the tear line 343.

[0047] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 , the distance between the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 is 1 - 8 mm. Through multiple tests, it is found that setting the distance between the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 to 1 - 8 mm can prevent the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 with a height difference from causing a large inclination of the rubber roller 5 and the print head, thus affecting the printing of the print head on the printing unit 2. In a preferred embodiment, on the premise that the absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the film laminating unit 3 and the thickness of the printing unit 2 does not exceed 0.15 mm, the distance between the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3 is set to 4 mm, which has little influence on the inclination of the rubber roller 5 and the print head and basically does not affect the printing effect of the print head on the printing unit 2.

[0048] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , the bottom release layer 1 has a folding line 13, and the printing area 11 and the film laminating area 12 are symmetrical about the folding line 13. In this embodiment, the printing unit 2 is arranged in the printing area 11, and the film laminating unit 3 is arranged in the film laminating area 12. When it is necessary to combine the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3, the bottom release layer 1 can be folded and flipped along the folding line 13 to combine the printing unit 2 and the film laminating unit 3, which is convenient to use.

[0049] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , the printing unit 2 further includes a printed pattern layer 23, and the printed pattern layer 23 is bonded to the side of the label layer 21 facing away from the third adhesive layer 22, and the thickness of the printed pattern layer 23 is not greater than 0.01 mm. In this embodiment, the printed pattern layer 23 can be a transparent sticker with a pattern, which is used to combine with the label layer 21 to add information elements to the label layer 21 for better identification of the label. For example, the printed pattern layer 23 can be a transparent sticker with a logo, and the side facing the label layer 21 has adhesiveness and can be bonded to the label layer 21.

[0050] For a better understanding of the present invention, the following Figures 1 to 2 is used to detail the technical solution of the present invention:

[0051] The printing label provided by the present utility model has a printing unit 2 and a film laminating unit 3 respectively arranged in the printing area 11 and the film laminating area 12 of the bottom release layer 1. By folding the bottom release layer 1 in half, the printing unit 2 can be combined with the film laminating unit 3 to protect the printing unit 2. Since the absolute value of the difference between the thickness of the film laminating unit 3 and the thickness of the printing unit 2 does not exceed 0.15 mm and the thickness difference is small, when the printing label is printed inside the printer, it will not press against the rubber roller and cause the print head to tilt severely. The contact area between the print head and the printing unit 2 is large, and the printing effect of the print head on the printing unit 2 is good and the clarity is high.

[0052] The specific embodiments of the present utility model described above do not constitute a limitation to the protection scope of the present utility model. Any other corresponding changes and deformations made according to the technical concept of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
