Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a delivery slip. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, delivery slips that are affixed to deliveries have been used to deliver the deliveries. Among such delivery slips, there is known one in which a detachable separation part is connected to the so-called waybill that is affixed to the delivery, and the separation part is affixed to the delivery after being separated (for example, see Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-73655 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] As described above, in a delivery slip in which the separation unit is configured to be detachable and is attached to the delivery after the separation unit is separated, it is conceivable that the separation unit is used for managing the delivery. For example, it is conceivable that the separation unit is stored at both the store that accepts the delivery of the delivery and the delivery company that delivers the delivery. In this case, if the information written in the separation unit is shared between the store that accepts the delivery of the delivery and the delivery company that delivers the delivery, the reliability of management of the delivery is improved.

[0005] An object of the present invention is to provide a delivery slip that can improve the reliability of delivery management by duplicating the information entered. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides: A delivery slip having an upper sheet portion and a lower sheet portion, The upper sheet portion is an upper substrate having a copy area and a non-copy area connected to each other; a color former layer laminated on an area of ​​the lower surface of the copy area excluding at least an area along the non-copy area; an adhesive layer laminated on the non-copy area and an area of ​​the copy area that is aligned with the non-copy area of ​​the lower surface of the upper substrate; The lower sheet portion is a lower substrate having an area facing the copy area and an area facing the non-copy area; a color developer layer laminated on an area of ​​the upper surface of the lower substrate facing an area where the color former layer is exposed at the upper sheet portion; a release agent layer laminated on at least an area facing the non-copy area of ​​the area facing the adhesive layer on the upper surface of the lower substrate; the upper sheet portion and the lower sheet portion are releasably attached by the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer and the release agent layer, The upper sheet portion is a delivery slip in which information entry fields are provided on the upper surface of each of the copy area and the non-copy area of ​​the upper base material, and a slit is formed at the boundary between the copy area and the non-copy area.

[0007] In the present invention configured as described above, when information is written in an information entry field provided in the copy area of ​​the upper substrate of the upper sheet portion, the written information is copied to the lower sheet portion by the color former layer and the color developer layer. Then, when the copy area of ​​the upper substrate is separated by peeling the upper substrate from the lower substrate, the information written in the information entry field is retained in the separated area of ​​the upper sheet portion and in the lower sheet portion. Therefore, by comparing these two pieces of information, the reliability of delivery management using a delivery slip is improved. Furthermore, when information is written in an information entry field provided in the non-copy area of ​​the upper substrate, the written information is not copied to the lower substrate because the color former layer and the color developer layer are not interposed between the upper substrate and the lower substrate in the area facing the non-copy area. As a result, even when the upper sheet portion is peeled off from the lower sheet portion to be attached to a delivery, the information written in the information entry field is not spread more than necessary.

[0008] Also, perforations may be formed parallel to the slits in an area of ​​the upper sheet portion that does not include the adhesive layer.

[0009] In such a configuration, if the upper sheet portion is separated by breaking the copy area of ​​the upper base material along the perforations rather than slits, the adhesive layer will no longer be present on the separated upper sheet portion, making it easier to handle. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the present invention, the reliability of delivery management can be improved by copying the entered information.

[0011] In addition, in the case where perforations are formed parallel to the slits in the area of ​​the upper sheet portion that does not contain the adhesive layer, if the upper sheet portion is separated by breaking the perforations rather than the slits in the copy area of ​​the upper base material, the adhesive layer will no longer be present in the separated upper sheet portion, which can avoid making it difficult to handle. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0014] <Delivery slip composition> Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of a delivery slip of the present invention, where (a) is a front view and (b) is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA in (a). Fig. 2 shows the configuration of the lower surface side of the upper substrate 10 shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 3 shows the configuration of the upper surface side of the lower substrate 60 shown in Fig. 1.

[0015] As shown in FIG. 1, this embodiment is a delivery slip 1 configured by laminating an upper sheet portion 1a and a lower sheet portion 1b.

[0016] The upper sheet portion 1 a has an upper substrate 10 , an adhesive layer 30 , and a color former layer 20 .

[0017] The upper substrate 10 is configured with a copy area 10a and a non-copy area 10b that are connected to each other. A slit 13 is formed at the boundary between the copy area 10a and the non-copy area 10b, and the copy area 10a and the non-copy area 10b are connected to each other via the slit 13. The slit 13 penetrates the upper substrate 10 and the adhesive layer 30.

[0018] The non-copying area 10b has information entry fields 11a to 11f, and displays barcode information 12a. Each of the information entry fields 11a to 11f is an area for entering information for managing delivery of the delivery item using the delivery slip 1. For example, destination information such as the address, name, and other information of the delivery destination of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11a. Furthermore, shipper information such as the address, name, and other information of the sender of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11b. Furthermore, the name of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11c. Furthermore, the desired delivery date indicating the desired delivery date of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11d. Furthermore, the desired time period for delivery of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11e. Furthermore, the size of the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11f. Furthermore, the barcode information 12a is used to manage delivery of the delivery item. Furthermore, a management number linked to the barcode information 12a may be displayed in the non-copying area 10b.

[0019] Copy area 10a has information entry fields 11g to 11i and displays control number 12b. The delivery fee for the delivery item is entered in information entry field 11h. Special notes regarding delivery of the delivery item are entered in information entry fields 11g and 11i. The size of the delivery item may also be entered in copy area 10a. Control number 12b is used to manage delivery of the delivery item and is linked to barcode information 12a. The same barcode information as barcode information 12a may also be displayed in copy area 10a. Perforations 14 are formed in copy area 10a parallel to slits 13. Perforations 14 penetrate upper base material 10.

[0020] 1(b) and 2, a color former layer 20 is formed on the lower surface of the upper substrate 10 by applying a color former. The color former layer 20 is formed on the lower surface of the copy area 10a, excluding the area along the non-copy area 10b. Known color formers can be used to form the color former layer 20, and examples of such color formers include colorless or light-colored electron-donating color-forming organic compounds, such as triphenylmethanephthalides, leucoauramines, spiropyrans, and fluorans.

[0021] 1(b) and 2, an adhesive layer 30 is laminated on the lower surface of the upper substrate 10 by applying an adhesive. The adhesive layer 30 is laminated from the edge of the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10 opposite the slit 13, beyond the slit 13, to an area near the perforation 14. As a result, the adhesive layer 30 is laminated on the lower surface of the upper substrate 10 in the non-copy area 10b and in the area of ​​the copy area 10a that is aligned with the non-copy area 10b.

[0022] The color former layer 20 may be laminated over the entire lower surface of the copy area 10a. Even in this case, the adhesive layer 30 is laminated over the non-copy area 10b and the area of ​​the copy area 10a that is aligned with the non-copy area 10b on the lower surface of the upper substrate 10. In other words, the adhesive layer 30 is laminated over the color former layer 20 in the area of ​​the copy area 10a that is aligned with the non-copy area 10b.

[0023] The lower sheet portion 1b has a lower substrate 60, a release agent layer 40, and a color developer layer 50.

[0024] The lower substrate 60 has the same outer shape as the upper substrate 10 and is disposed opposite the upper substrate 10 so that its four peripheries overlap. As a result, the lower substrate 60 has an area facing the copy area 10a and an area facing the non-copy area 10b.

[0025] 1(b) and 3, a release agent layer 40 is laminated on the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 by applying silicone. The release agent layer 40 is laminated on the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 in an area facing the non-copy area 10b.

[0026] As shown in Figures 1(b) and 3, a color developer layer 50 is formed on the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 by applying a color developer. The color developer layer 50 is formed on the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 in an area facing the color former layer 20. The color developer constituting the color developer layer 50 develops color by mixing with the color former constituting the color former layer 20, and typically, a compound having a phenolic hydroxyl group, such as paraphenylphenol or zinc 3,5-dibutylsalicylate, can be used. As a result, the color developer layer 50 is paired with the color former layer 20 and has a copying function. As described above, in a configuration in which the color former layer 20 is laminated over the entire lower surface of the copy area 10a and a portion of the adhesive layer 30 is laminated on the color former layer 20, the developer layer 50 may be laminated in an area opposite to the area where the adhesive layer 30 is not laminated on the color former layer 20 and the color former layer 20 is exposed on the upper sheet portion 1a.

[0027] The upper sheet portion 1a and the lower sheet portion 1b are releasably attached by an adhesive layer 30 and a release agent layer 40.

[0028] The lower substrate 60 does not have to have the same external shape as the upper substrate 10, and the length in the connecting direction between the copy area 10a and the non-copy area 10b may be longer than that of the upper substrate 10. In this case, for example, the upper substrate 10 and the lower substrate 60 may be laminated so that the copy area 10a side is exposed from the upper substrate 10, and barcode information or the like may be displayed in the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 that is exposed from the upper substrate 10.

[0029] <How to use the delivery slip> The following describes how to use the delivery slip 1 configured as above.

[0030] 4 to 7 are diagrams for explaining how to use the delivery slip 1 shown in FIG.

[0031] A delivery slip 1 shown in FIG. 1 is used by filling in the information required for delivery of an item.

[0032] First, information necessary for delivery of the item is entered in each of the information entry fields 11a to 11f provided in the non-copy area 10b of the upper base material 10. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, destination information 2a, such as the address, name, and other information of the recipient of the item, is entered in the information entry field 11a. Furthermore, shipper information 2b, such as the address, name, and other information of the sender of the item, is entered in the information entry field 11b. Furthermore, the name of the item is entered in the information entry field 11c. Furthermore, the desired delivery date, indicating the desired date for delivery of the item, is entered in the information entry field 11d. Furthermore, the desired time period for delivery of the item is entered in the information entry field 11e. These entries may be made by the shipper who is the sender of the item. Note that instead of entering information in all of the information entry fields 11a to 11e, information may be printed in advance in some of them.

[0033] Furthermore, the store that accepts the delivery of the item measures the size of the item and enters the size of the item in information entry field 11f. The delivery fee for the item is determined based on the size of the item and the delivery address, and delivery fee 2c for the item is entered in information entry field 11h as shown in Fig. 4. Furthermore, if there are any special instructions for the delivery of the item, such as refrigeration or handling precautions, these may be entered in information entry fields 11g and 11i.

[0034] At this time, in the copy area 10a, the lower substrate 60 faces the lower surface of the upper substrate 10. Furthermore, a color former layer 20 is laminated in the copy area 10a of the lower surface of the upper substrate 10, and a color developer layer 50 is laminated in an area of ​​the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 facing the color former layer 20. As a result, when the delivery fee 2c for the delivery item is written in the information entry field 11h, the color former constituting the color former layer 20 and the color developer constituting the color developer layer 50 mix together due to the pressure of the writing, and the delivery fee 2c written in the information entry field 11h is copied onto the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 facing the information entry field 11h.

[0035] After the delivery of the delivery item is accepted in this manner, the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10 is separated from the copy area 10a by the slit 13 as shown in FIG. 5 and peeled off from the lower substrate 60, and is then attached to the delivery item 3 as shown in FIG. 6. The non-copy area 10b and the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10 can be separated by the slit 13. Furthermore, although the lower surface of the upper substrate 10 is attached to the upper surface of the lower substrate 60 by the adhesive layer 30, in the non-copy area 10b, the release agent layer 40 faces the adhesive layer 30, so that the non-copy area 10b can be separated from the copy area 10a and peeled off from the lower substrate 60. Furthermore, the adhesive layer 30 is laminated on the surface of the non-copy area 10b peeled off from the lower substrate 60, and this adhesive layer 30 can be used to attach the non-copy area 10b to the delivery item 3.

[0036] Here, as described above, when the delivery fee 2c for the delivery item is entered in the information entry field 11h, the delivery fee 2c entered in the information entry field 11h is copied to the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 facing the information entry field 11h. Meanwhile, information is also entered in the information entry fields 11a to 11f provided in the non-copying area 10b, but in the area facing the non-copying area 10b, the color former layer 20 and the color developer layer 50 are not interposed between the upper substrate 10 and the lower substrate 60, so the information entered in the information entry fields 11a to 11f is not copied to the lower substrate 60. Therefore, even when the non-copying area 10b is peeled off from the lower substrate 60 together with the adhesive layer 30 to attach the upper substrate 10 to the delivery item, the information entered in the information entry fields 11a to 11f is retained only in the non-copying area 10b of the upper substrate 10, and the information entered in the information entry fields 11a to 11f is not spread more than necessary. In particular, although the destination information 2a and shipper information 2b entered in the information entry field 11a are necessary for the delivery of the item, they are personal information and should not be spread, so it is preferable to keep them only in the non-copy area 10b of the upper base material 10.

[0037] In this way, the non-copy area 10b peeled off from the lower base material 60 together with the adhesive layer 30 is attached to the delivery, and then the delivery is collected by a delivery company. At this time, an image of the non-copy area 10b attached to the delivery is first captured. In the non-copy area 10b, information is written in each of the information entry fields 11a to 11f, and barcode information 12a is displayed. Therefore, by saving the captured image in the system, the information written in each of the information entry fields 11a to 11f can be identified using the barcode information 12a, and the delivery can be managed.

[0038] 7, the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10 is separated from the lower substrate 60 by breaking the perforation 14. For example, the copy area 10a separated from the lower substrate 60 is kept by the delivery company as a copy, and the lower substrate 60 from which the copy area 10a has been separated is kept by the store that accepts the delivery. In this case, the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 facing the non-copy area 10b may be configured to be separable, even though it is unnecessary, because it is large in size. In this case, a perforation for separating the lower substrate 60 may be formed in the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 facing the non-copy area 10b. The perforation is preferably in an area approximately 2 mm from the area facing the slit 13 of the lower substrate 60 to the side facing the non-copy area 10b. Furthermore, if the distance between the slit 13 and the perforation 14 exceeds 2 mm, the perforation may be formed in an area within 2 mm from the area facing the slit 13 of the lower substrate 60 to the side facing the copy area 10a.

[0039] 7, in the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 facing the information entry field 11h, the delivery fee 2c entered in the information entry field 11h is copied as copy information 2d. As a result, the delivery fee 2c entered in the information entry field 11h is held in both the copy area 10a separated from the lower substrate 60 and the lower substrate 60 from which the copy area 10a was separated. Therefore, even if the delivery fee for a delivery is fraudulently rewritten, the rewriting can be detected by comparing these two pieces of information, thereby improving the reliability of delivery management using delivery slips.

[0040] Furthermore, a control number 12b linked to the barcode information 12a displayed in the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10 is displayed in the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10, and a control number 12c linked to the barcode information 12a displayed in the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10 is also displayed in the area of ​​the lower substrate 60 opposite the copy area 10a. Therefore, the information entered in each of the information entry fields 11a to 11f of the upper substrate 10 can be identified using these control numbers 12b and 12c, and deliveries can be managed.

[0041] 1, the adhesive layer 30 is laminated from the edge of the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10 opposite the slit 13, past the slit 13, to the area near the perforation 14. In other words, the perforation 14 is formed in an area of ​​the upper sheet portion 1a that does not include the adhesive layer 30. Therefore, as described above, if the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10 is separated from the lower substrate 60 by breaking the perforation 14 rather than the slit 13, the adhesive layer 30 will no longer be present in the copy area 10a separated from the lower substrate 60, which can avoid the problem of it being difficult to handle.

[0042] In this manner, the delivery slip 1 of this embodiment has a non-copy area 10b as the area to be affixed to the delivery, and a copy area 10a as the area separated from the non-copy area 10b. The copy area 10a uses two pieces of information stored separately from the delivery to improve the reliability of delivery management. Therefore, after the non-copy area 10b is peeled off from the lower substrate 60 and affixed to the delivery, the remaining portion is separated into the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10 and the lower substrate 60, and the same copied information is stored in each of the copy area 10a and the lower substrate 60. Here, if one of the two pieces of information stored separately is stored on the delivery when managing the delivery, it becomes difficult to perform tasks such as verifying the two pieces of information after the delivery has been delivered to its destination. However, the delivery slip 1 in this embodiment makes it easy to perform tasks such as comparing two pieces of copied information, whether before or after the delivery item is delivered to the destination, thereby improving the reliability of delivery item management.

[0043] In the delivery slip 1 of this embodiment, the adhesive layer 30 may also be laminated in an area along the edge opposite the slit 13 on the underside of the copy area 10a of the upper substrate 10, where the color former layer 20 is laminated. This prevents the upper substrate 10 from curling up from the edge of the copy area 10a in the direction in which the copy area 10a and the non-copy area 10b are connected, for example, when the delivery slip 1 is transported through the printer in the direction in which the copy area 10a and the non-copy area 10b are connected.

[0044] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the release agent layer 40 is laminated only in the area facing the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10. However, the release agent layer 40 may also be laminated so as to face the adhesive layer 30 in the area of ​​the copy area 10a where the adhesive layer 30 is laminated. However, if the release agent layer 40 is laminated only in the area facing the non-copy area 10b of the upper substrate 10, the copy area 10a will be attached to the lower substrate 60 only by the adhesive layer 30, making it difficult for the copy area 10a to peel off inadvertently.
