Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a drum head sticker that can be attached to the drum of a musical instrument. [Background technology]

[0002] Stickers are often stuck on the drum heads of drums for decoration. However, stickers are usually difficult to remove once they are stuck on. Even if they can be removed, it takes time, and the adhesive remains on the removed area, which can stain or damage the drum head. For this reason, if you rent a drum set from a live music venue, you cannot put stickers on the drums. BACKGROUND ART A sticker having an adhesive elastomer layer for adhering to the surface of a musical instrument has been disclosed in the prior art (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Special Publication No. 2022-537943 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] However, the sticker shown in Patent Document 1 has the problem that if it is attached to the drum head of a drum, the sound of the drum will change, and the sticker may come off due to vibrations of the drum head while the drum is being played.

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve these problems and provide a drum head sticker that can be repeatedly attached and removed without soiling or damaging the drum head, has little effect on the drum sound, and is resistant to peeling even when the drum head vibrates. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the drum head sticker of the present invention comprises a main sheet and a release sheet, the main sheet having an adhesive surface on the back, the adhesive surface having a flat non-adhesive portion with multiple adhesive dot-like protruding portions evenly arranged, and the release sheet is attached to the entire adhesive surface in a manner that allows it to be peeled off and reattached. In this invention, the term "drum head" includes not only bass drum heads but also drum heads of snare drums, toms, etc., and may be on either the striking surface side or the opposite side to the striking surface.

[0007] The drum head sticker of this invention is made up of a flat non-adhesive portion with multiple evenly-spaced adhesive dots on the non-adhesive portion, and the adhesive strength to the drum head is adjusted, so it can be repeatedly applied and removed without staining or damaging the drum head, and it is also resistant to vibrations of the drum head.In addition, an air gap is created between the flat non-adhesive portion and the adhesive dots, which does not mute the sound of the drum and has little effect on the sound of the drum.

[0008] The drumhead sticker according to the present invention may have the same size as the drumhead, and the release sheet may be provided with a strip-shaped portion that crosses the center and can be separated from both side central portions so as to be releasable. If a sticker the same size as the drumhead is attached to the entire drumhead, it is likely to slip or trap air between the sticker and the drumhead. In contrast, if the release sheet has a strip-shaped section that runs across the center and is separate and releasable from the center sections, the release sheet can be peeled off only the strip-shaped section, and the adhesive surface, left attached to the drumhead, can be positioned relative to the drumhead, and the attachment position can be adjusted. Once the attachment position is determined, one of the center sections of the release sheet can be peeled off to attach the exposed adhesive surface of the main sheet to the drumhead, and then the other section of the release sheet can be peeled off to attach the exposed adhesive surface of the main sheet to the drumhead. In this way, even a sticker the same size as the drumhead can be neatly attached to the drumhead without slippage or trapping air between the sticker and the drumhead. [Effects of the Invention]

[0009] According to this invention, it is possible to provide a drum head sticker that can be repeatedly attached and removed without soiling or damaging the drum head, has little effect on the drum sound, and is resistant to peeling even when the drum head vibrates. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0010] [Figure 1] 1 is a partially enlarged rear view of the main body sheet of the drum head sticker according to the embodiment of the present invention; [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is a rear view of the drum head sticker shown in FIG. 1. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0011] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 and 2 show a drum head sticker according to an embodiment of the present invention. Drum head sticker 1 consists of a main sheet 2 and a release sheet 3. Main sheet 2 is made of polyethylene terephthalate and has a design, logo, etc. printed on its surface. Main sheet 2 can be printed in full color. Main sheet 2 has an adhesive surface 4 on its back. As shown in Figure 1, adhesive surface 4 consists of a flat non-adhesive portion 4a with multiple adhesive dot-like protruding portions 4b arranged in a uniform staggered pattern.

[0012] For example, the main body sheet 2 has a thickness of 50 to 200 μm, the size of each adhesive portion 4 b is 0.2 to 1 mm in diameter, and the density of the adhesive portions 4 b is 50 to 100 pieces / cm 2 A release sheet 3 is attached to the entire adhesive surface 4 so that it can be peeled off and reattached. The release sheet 3 is made of polyethylene terephthalate, and the surface to which the adhesive surface 4 is attached is coated with a release agent.

[0013] The cut-type drumhead sticker 1 has a rectangular overall shape, with the main sheet 2 cut to fit the design. The full-coverage type has the same size as a circular drumhead. As shown in Figure 2, the release sheet 3 of the full-coverage drumhead sticker 1 is provided with a strip-shaped portion 3a that runs across the center along the diameter and can be separated and peeled from both central side portions 3b. The release sheet 3 is, for example, 2 to 4 cm wide.

[0014] Drum head sticker 1 is attached to a drum head using the following process. An example of a drum head that can be attached is the front drum head of a bass drum. It is easier to attach the drum head if it is removed from the drum body, but it can also be attached while still attached. If the drum head sticker 1 is a cut type that is smaller than the drum head, peel off the main sheet 2 from the release sheet 3, being careful not to tear sharp corners or small parts. Then, attach the peeled main sheet 2 to the desired position on the drum head. If the drum head is dirty, lightly clean it with a wet tissue or similar to prolong the adhesive strength. To remove the sticker, apply cellophane tape or masking tape to the edge of the main sheet 2 and pull it off easily.

[0015] If the drumhead sticker 1 is a full-coverage type that is the same size as the drumhead, peel off only the strip portion 3a of the release sheet 3, and attach the adhesive surface 4 where strip portion 3a was peeled off to the drumhead so that it passes through the center of the drumhead and overlaps the diameter. Next, the release sheet 3 on both sides of the center portion 3b can be placed against the drumhead to position it relative to the drumhead. If the attachment position is off, peel off the adhesive surface 4 where strip portion 3a was peeled off from the drumhead, move the position and attach it again to the drumhead, and adjust the attachment position.

[0016] Once the attachment position has been determined, peel off one of the central side portions 3b of the release sheet 3 to attach the exposed adhesive surface 4 of the main sheet 2 to the drumhead, then peel off the other side of the release sheet 3 to attach the exposed adhesive surface 4 of the main sheet 2 to the drumhead. When attaching the central side portions 3b, apply from the center outward, removing any air. If wrinkles occur, peel off the sticker up to the wrinkled area and reattach it. If you try to attach a sticker the same size as the drumhead to the entire drumhead, it will easily shift or air will get trapped between the sticker and the drumhead. However, with the drumhead sticker 1, which has the strip-shaped portion 3a on the release sheet 3, even a full-coverage type sticker the same size as the drumhead can be attached neatly to the drumhead.

[0017] The drum head sticker 1 has an adhesive surface 4 with a flat non-adhesive portion 4a and multiple evenly-spaced adhesive dots 4b. This adjusts the adhesive strength to the drum head, allowing it to be repeatedly applied and removed without soiling or damaging the drum head, and it is also resistant to vibrations. If the sticker becomes misaligned, it can be peeled off and reapplied. Furthermore, an air gap forms between the flat non-adhesive portion 4a and the adhesive dots 4b, preventing the drum sound from being muted and minimizing the impact on the drum sound. After use, the main sheet 2 of the drum head sticker 1 can be peeled off from the drum head and returned to the release sheet 3 for storage. Since the adhesive on adhesive surface 4 does not remain on the drum head, you can stick original band stickers on the drums in a drum set rented from a live house to promote your band.
