Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of label technology, specifically relating to a foldable fan-shaped label. Background Technology
[0002] The fan-shaped label is attached directly to the container from the back, and the label is displayed on the fan surface to attract consumers.
[0003] However, in actual operation, the following technical defects exist:
[0004] 1. Because the fan surface occupies a large area of the object, it is easy for problems such as "hollow spots", "wrinkles" or "adhesive leakage" to occur during the application process, which often results in the label display effect not meeting expectations.
[0005] 2. Although the fan-shaped logo has a certain eye-catching effect, the label itself cannot interact with consumers, resulting in a poor user experience and failing to bring any unexpected surprises. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an improved folding fan-shaped label.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A foldable fan-shaped label includes a fan-shaped display layer with markings formed on its surface. The fan-shaped display layer is composed of an upper arc edge, a lower arc edge, and a left connecting edge and a right connecting edge that connect the left and right ends of the upper arc edge and the lower arc edge, respectively. In particular, the fan-shaped display layer can be folded in a meandering manner from the upper arc edge and the lower arc edge, respectively, and the marking content is hidden to form a folded marking layer.
[0009] The fan-shaped label also includes a face film layer and a bottom film layer. The face film layer, the folded label layer, and the bottom film layer together form a folded fan-shaped body, and the bottom film layer is attached to the body. The upper and lower arc edges of the folded fan-shaped body are aligned. The left and right connecting edges of the folded fan-shaped body are formed by attaching the face film layer and the bottom film layer to form the left and right edging. One of the left and right edgings is fixed to the connecting edge on the side corresponding to the folded label layer, and the other of the left and right edgings is detachably glued. After the edging is peeled off, the folded label layer can extend outward to display all the labels together with the labels exposed by the face film layer.
[0010] Preferably, the number of folds is at least N, where N≥1 and is an integer; the number of folded marking layers is N+1. Generally, N=2 is most common, resulting in a three-layer structure. This not only minimizes the thickness but also effectively conceals the display surface, preventing the content from being exposed from the bottom film layer after folding, thus enhancing the sense of secrecy of the folded image and increasing consumer curiosity.
[0011] According to a specific embodiment and preferred aspect of this utility model, the folded marking layer forms at least two layers from the front to the back, and the area formed by each layer gradually decreases from the front to the back. Here, it is important to avoid the thickness of the folded area being increased due to the concentration of the folded parts, and more importantly, to achieve a more perfect alignment of the upper and lower curved edges during folding.
[0012] Preferably, each layer of the folded label layer remains similar. Based on the similar shape of the folds, the quality of the folds with the upper and lower curved edges aligned is further improved, and the setting of the fold seams is also easier.
[0013] According to another specific embodiment and preferred aspect of this utility model, the fitting widths formed by the left and right edges are equal. Here, the main consideration is the overall shape, and the resulting folded fan-shaped body is still a fan-shaped label, but the overall area is much smaller, thereby reducing the space occupied by the label on the surface of the device.
[0014] According to another specific embodiment and preferred aspect of this utility model, the face mask layer covers the front of the folded label layer, and a prompt mark for revealing the label is also provided on the front of the folded label layer; the bottom film layer is attached to the back of the folded label layer, and after the edge is peeled off, the concealed part of the folded label layer can unfold outward from between the face mask layer and the bottom film layer. That is to say, the face mask layer and the front of the folded label layer can be glued or attached together, while the prompt mark increases the user's curiosity.
[0015] In some specific implementations, the upper and lower curved edges of the folding fan body are concentrically arranged. This maintains overall symmetry and makes it relatively aesthetically pleasing.
[0016] Preferably, the face film layer and the base film layer are made of the same material. This facilitates molding and processing.
[0017] Furthermore, the left edges are fixedly bonded together, with the folded label layer adhering parallel to the adhesive seam of the left edge from the left side; the right edges are detachably bonded together, and the folded label layer's fold seam from the right side is located inside the bonded portion. Therefore, the folded label layer and the folded fan-shaped body maintain a similar appearance, resulting in a relatively neat and aesthetically pleasing overall design.
[0018] Due to the implementation of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0019] Existing fan-shaped labels, due to the large area occupied by the fan surface, are prone to issues such as "hollow spots," "wrinkles," or "adhesive leakage" during application, often resulting in suboptimal label display. Furthermore, while the fan-shaped markings are eye-catching, the labels themselves offer no interaction with consumers, leading to a poor user experience and failing to provide any unexpected surprises. This invention cleverly solves these shortcomings of existing structures through a comprehensive design of a foldable fan-shaped label. Using this foldable fan-shaped label, based on the surface... The film layer, the folded label layer, and the bottom film layer together form a folded fan-shaped body. The folded fan-shaped body is attached to the body of the device from the bottom film layer. Then, the edge is peeled off and the label layer is folded to extend outwards, so that it can be combined with the exposed label of the top film layer to display all the labels. Therefore, this utility model significantly reduces the bonding area required for the label due to folding, thereby reducing the occurrence of phenomena such as "hollowing out", "wrinkling" or "adhesive leakage". On the other hand, based on its peelable and outward-extending nature, it increases the interaction between the label and the consumer, improves the user experience, and forms an innovative display mode based on the folding method.

[0028] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0029] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
[0030] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0031] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0032] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" a second feature can mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or that they are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of a second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" a second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature. It should be noted that when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "set on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element present. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element present. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "above," "below," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible embodiments.
[0033] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the foldable fan-shaped label of this embodiment includes a face film layer 1, a bottom film layer 2, and a fan-shaped display layer 3. The fan-shaped display layer 3 is composed of an upper arc-shaped edge 30, a lower arc-shaped edge 31, and a left connecting edge 32 and a right connecting edge 33 that connect the left and right ends of the upper arc-shaped edge 30 and the lower arc-shaped edge 31 respectively. The surface of the fan-shaped display layer 3 forms a complete picture (a dragon in this example).
[0034] The fan-shaped display layer 3 can be folded in a meandering manner, aligned with the upper arc edge 30 and the lower arc edge 31, concealing the markings (most of the dragon's body and head) to form a folded marking layer 3'. The face film layer 1, the folded marking layer 3', and the bottom film layer 2 together form a folded fan-shaped body T, with the bottom film layer 2 attached to the body. The upper arc edge t1 and the lower arc edge t2 of the folded fan-shaped body T are aligned. The left connecting edge t3 and the right connecting edge t4 of the folded fan-shaped body T are both formed by the face film layer 1 and the bottom film layer 2, creating a left edge B1 and a right edge B2. The left edge B1 is fixed to the left connecting edge of the folded marking layer 3', while the right edge B2 is detachably glued. After removing the right edge B2, the folded marking layer 3' can extend outwards to display all the markings together with the markings exposed by the face film layer (i.e.,...). Figure 2 (All states displayed in the middle).
[0035] In some specific implementations, the number of folds is N, where N=2; the number of layers in the folded label layer 3′ is three. This three-layer structure not only has an inconspicuous thickness but also effectively conceals the display surface, preventing the content from being exposed from the bottom film layer after folding, enhancing the sense of mystery of the folded image and increasing consumer curiosity. Simultaneously, the area formed by each layer of the folded label layer 3′ gradually decreases from the front to the back. This avoids increased thickness at the fold due to concentrated folding, and more importantly, ensures a more perfect alignment of the upper and lower curved edges during folding. Furthermore, the layers of the folded label layer 3′ maintain similarity. Based on similar folding shapes, the quality of the upper and lower curved edge alignment during folding is further improved, and the setting of the fold seam is also easier.
[0036] In this example, the face mask layer 1 covers the front of the folded label layer 3', and a prompt mark m indicating that the label should be removed is also provided on the front of the folded label layer 3'; the bottom film layer 2 is attached to the back of the folded label layer 3', and after the edge is removed, the concealed part of the folded label layer 3' can unfold outward from between the face mask layer 1 and the bottom film layer 2. That is to say, the face mask layer 1 and the front of the folded label layer 3' can be glued or attached together, while the prompt mark m increases the user's curiosity.
[0037] In some specific embodiments, the face film layer 1 and the bottom film layer 2 are made of the same material, which facilitates molding and processing. The upper arc-shaped edge t1 and the lower arc-shaped edge t2 of the folding fan-shaped body T are concentrically arranged. This maintains overall symmetry and is relatively aesthetically pleasing.
[0038] In this example, the left edge B1 and the right edge B2 form an equal width. This is mainly considered from the perspective of the overall shape, and the resulting folded fan-shaped body is still a fan-shaped label, but the overall area is much smaller, thus reducing the space occupied by the label on the surface of the device.
[0039] Furthermore, the left edges B1 are fixedly bonded together, and the folded label layer 3' is parallel to the adhesive seam of the left edges from the left side; the right edges B2 are detachably bonded together, and the folded label layer 3' from the right side is located inside the bonded portion. Therefore, the folded label layer and the folded fan-shaped body maintain a similar appearance, resulting in a relatively neat and aesthetically pleasing overall design. Simultaneously, when the folded label layer 3' is fully unfolded (e.g., ...), ... Figure 2 , 3 This forms a fan-shaped display layer 3, with all logo patterns (the entire dragon + other logos) displayed on the front.
[0040] The implementation process of this embodiment is as follows:
[0041] like Figure 1As shown, the fan-shaped label is a folded fan-shaped T and is attached to the body of the device from the bottom film layer 2. When a consumer is interested in it and wants to see the entire dragon pattern, the right edge B2 of the face film layer 1 is peeled off the bottom film layer 2, and then the folded label layer 3' is unfolded to the right to form the fan-shaped display layer 3, as shown. Figure 2 As shown, the front displays all logo patterns (i.e., the entire dragon plus other logos); as Figure 3 The back side shown is a white base surface.
[0042] In summary, by adopting this foldable fan-shaped label, a foldable fan-shaped body is formed by the three layers: the face film layer, the folded label layer, and the bottom film layer. The folded fan-shaped body is attached to the device body from the bottom film layer, and then the edge is peeled off, and the label layer is folded outwards to combine with the exposed label on the face film layer to display all the labels. Therefore, this invention significantly reduces the required bonding area of the label due to folding, thus reducing the incidence of phenomena such as "hollowing," "wrinkling," or "adhesive leakage." Furthermore, its peelable and outward-extending design increases the interactivity between the label and the consumer, improving the user experience. The folding method also creates an innovative display mode. Thirdly, N=2 is generally the most common configuration, resulting in a three-layer structure with minimal thickness, effectively concealing the display surface to prevent the content from being exposed from the bottom film layer after folding, enhancing the sense of mystery and increasing consumer curiosity. Fourthly, the folded label layer folds from front to back... The surface is formed with at least two layers, and the area formed by each layer gradually decreases from the front to the back. This avoids the thickness of the folded area due to the concentration of folded parts. More importantly, it allows for a more perfect alignment of the upper and lower curved edges during folding. The layers of the folding label layer remain similar, further improving the quality of the alignment of the upper and lower curved edges and facilitating the setting of the fold seam. Fifthly, the width of the left and right edges is equal, and the upper and lower curved edges of the folding fan body are concentric. That is, from the perspective of overall shape, it maintains symmetry and is relatively beautiful. Moreover, the folding fan body is still a fan-shaped label, but the overall area is much smaller, thereby reducing the space occupied by the label on the surface of the device. Sixthly, the front of the mask layer and the folding label layer can be glued or pasted together. At the same time, the prompt markings increase the user's curiosity. Moreover, the folding label layer and the folding fan body remain similar, that is, the overall shape is relatively neat and beautiful.
[0043] The present utility model has been described in detail above, with the aim of enabling those skilled in the art to understand its contents and implement it. However, this description should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
