Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention
[0019] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, when indicating the up, down, left, and right directions, it shall refer to the up, down, left, and right as seen from the front of the illustration.
[0020] <Explanation of the memo sticker> As shown in FIG. 1, the memo sticker 1 according to this embodiment is, for example, in the shape of a fish and is formed of a single piece of tack paper. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, the memo sticker 1 mainly includes a main body 2 and an opening / closing part 3. Hereinafter, each component will be described in detail.
[0021] <Explanation of the main body> As shown in FIG. 3(a), the main body 2 has a memo part 20 in the shape of the upper body of a fish. Various characters, pictures, etc. can be written on this memo part 20. For example, as shown in FIG. 3(b), a character M1 such as "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" can be written.
[0022] On the other hand, on the left end face 20a of such a memo part 20, a head part 21 imitating the head of a fish is integrally and continuously provided, and on the right end face 20b of the memo part 20, a tail fin 22 imitating the tail of a fish is integrally and continuously provided. And on the lower end face 20c of the memo part 20 on the side of the tail fin 22, a buttock fin 23 is integrally and continuously provided. Thereby, the main body 2 is formed in the shape of a fish.
[0023] On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6, on the back surface 24 of the main body 2 (the back surface of the memo part 20), an adhering part 4 is provided. This adhering part 4 is in the shape of a dorsal fin of a fish and is formed by cutting out a part of the back surface 24 in a substantially semi-circular arc shape from the upper end face 20d to the lower end face 20c of the back surface 24 of the main body 2. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, one end face 4a of the adhering part 4 is continuously formed on the upper end face 20d of the back surface 24 of the main body 2. And on the back surface 4b shown in FIG. 6(b) of the adhering part 4 formed in this way, an adhesive with re-peelability is applied.
[0024] Thus, as shown in Fig. 6(a), when not in use, the adhering portion 4 formed in this way is bent inwardly of the main body 2 with one end face 4a of the adhering portion 4 as a base point, so that the back face 4b of the adhering portion 4 shown in Fig. 6(b) is adhered to the back face 24 of the main body 2. Thereby, it becomes a design property such that the adhering portion 4 and the back face 24 of the main body 2 are integrated. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 6(b), when in use, the back face 4b of the adhering portion 4 is peeled off from the back face 24 of the main body 2, and is bent outwardly of the main body 2 with one end face 4a of the adhering portion 4 as a base point. Thereby, as shown in Fig. 1(b), the adhering portion 4 has a design property like a dorsal fin of a fish. Note that even when the back face 4b of the adhering portion 4 is peeled off from the back face 24 of the main body 2, one end face 4a of the adhering portion 4 is not separated from the main body 2. Thus, when not in use, if the adhering portion 4 is bent inwardly of the main body 2 again with one end face 4a of the adhering portion 4 as a base point, the back face 4b of the adhering portion 4 shown in Fig. 6(b) will be adhered to the back face 24 of the main body 2. Note that when in use means the case where the memo sticker 1 is attached to a desired location such as on a desk, a whiteboard, or a monitor, or as a souvenir, etc., as will be described later, and when not in use means the case where the memo sticker 1 is not attached to a desired location.
[0025] <Description of the opening and closing part> As shown in Fig. 1, the opening and closing part 3 has a shape imitating the trunk and tail of a fish. More specifically, as shown in Fig. 3, the opening and closing part 3 can expose the memo part 20 of the main body 2 to the outside as if a fish is being handled, and further, as shown in Fig. 1, can conceal the memo part 20 of the main body 2 from the outside so as to be in a state before a fish is being handled. More specifically described, as shown in Fig. 3, the opening and closing part 3 is composed of an upper opening and closing member 30 and a lower opening and closing member 31. As shown in Fig. 3, the lower end face 30a of the upper opening and closing member 30 is formed so as to communicate with the upper end face 20d of the main body 2. Thereby, the upper opening and closing member 30 is integrally formed with the memo part 20 of the main body 2. On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 3, the upper end face 31a of the lower opening and closing member 31 is formed so as to communicate with the lower end face 20c of the main body 2. Thereby, the lower opening and closing member 31 is integrally formed with the memo part 20 of the main body 2. Note that the upper opening and closing member 30 and the lower opening and closing member 31 are in a mirror image relationship.
[0026] Thus, the upper opening / closing member 30 formed in this way can be bent into the memo part 20 of the main body 2 with the lower end surface 30a as a reference point as shown in FIG. 1, and can be bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2 with the lower end surface 30a as a reference point as shown in FIG. 3. And the lower opening / closing member 31 can be bent into the memo part 20 of the main body 2 with the upper end surface 31a as a reference point as shown in FIG. 1, and can be bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2 with the upper end surface 31a as a reference point as shown in FIG. 3.
[0027] Thus, if the upper opening / closing member 30 and the lower opening / closing member 31 are bent into the memo part 20 of the main body 2 as shown in FIG. 1, the memo part 20 can be concealed from the outside as shown in FIG. 1(b). And if the upper opening / closing member 30 and the lower opening / closing member 31 are bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2 as shown in FIG. 3, the memo part 20 can be exposed to the outside.
[0028] By the way, as shown in FIG. 3, on the upper end surface 30b side of the back surface 30A of the upper opening / closing member 30, an adhesive surface 30c coated with an adhesive is formed in the longitudinal direction of the upper opening / closing member 30 (the left-right direction in the drawing). And a release paper 32 is formed on this adhesive surface 30c. Thereby, as shown in FIG. 4(b), if the release paper 32 is peeled off from the adhesive surface 30c, by bending the upper opening / closing member 30 into the memo part 20, the adhesive surface 30c of the upper opening / closing member 30 will be adhered to the lower opening / closing member 31 bent into the memo part 20.
[0029] On the one hand, as shown in FIG. 3, on the upper opening / closing member 30, a linear upper cut-off line 33 is formed in the longitudinal direction of the upper opening / closing member 30 (the left-right direction in the drawing) at a position located below the adhesive surface 30c and above the lower end surface 30a. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, on the lower opening / closing member 31, a linear lower cut-off line 34 is formed in the longitudinal direction of the lower opening / closing member 31 (the left-right direction in the drawing) at a position located slightly above the upper end surface 31a on the central part. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2(a), a part of the upper opening / closing member 30 and the lower opening / closing member 31 can be cut off along the upper cut-off line 33 and the lower cut-off line 34.
[0030] <Explanation of the usage method of the memo sticker> Thus, the memo sticker 1 configured as described above is used as follows.
[0031] First, starting from the state shown in FIG. 1(a), with the lower end surface 30a shown in FIG. 3(a) as a base point, the upper opening / closing member 30 is bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2. Then, further, with the upper end surface 31a shown in FIG. 3(a) as a base point, the lower opening / closing member 31 is bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3(a), the memo part 20 of the main body 2 is exposed to the outside.
[0032] Next, as shown in FIG. 3(b), the user writes characters M1 such as "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" on the memo part 20 of the main body 2 exposed to the outside.
[0033] Next, with the upper end surface 31a shown in FIG. 3(b) as a base point, the lower opening / closing member 31 is bent into the memo part 20 of the main body 2 as shown in FIG. 4(a).
[0034] Next, as shown in FIG. 4(b), the release paper 32 is peeled off from the adhesive surface 30c.
[0035] Next, as shown in FIG. 5(a), after completely peeling the release paper 32 from the adhesive surface 30c, with the lower end surface 30a shown in FIG. 5(a) as the base point, the upper opening / closing member 30 is bent into the memo section 20 of the main body 2. At this time, as shown in FIG. 5(b), if the upper opening / closing member 30 is bent so as to overlap the surface 31A of the lower opening / closing member 31, the adhesive surface 30c of the upper opening / closing member 30 will be adhered to the surface 31A of the lower opening / closing member 31. As a result, the character M1 described in the memo section 20 of the main body 2 will be concealed from the outside.
[0036] Next, the sticking portion 4 provided on the back surface 24 of the main body 2 shown in FIG. 6(a) is peeled from the back surface 24 of the main body 2 as shown in FIG. 6(b), and is bent outward of the main body 2 with one end surface 4a of the sticking portion 4 as the base point. As a result, the memo sticker 1 is in the state shown in FIG. 1(b). And since a pressure-sensitive adhesive having re-peelability is applied to the back surface 4b of the sticking portion 4 of the memo sticker 1 in this state, the back surface 4b can be attached to a desired location such as a desk, a whiteboard, a monitor, or a souvenir. Thereby, the memo sticker 1 can be used as a memo for others.
[0037] Next, when a person who has received the memo sticker 1 checks the memo, as shown in FIG. 2(a), a part of the upper opening / closing member 30 and the lower opening / closing member 31 is cut along the upper cut line 33 and the lower cut line 34. Then, with the lower end surface 30a shown in FIG. 2(a) as the base point, the uncut upper opening / closing member 30 is bent outside the memo section 20 of the main body 2. And further, with the upper end surface 31a shown in FIG. 2(b) as the base point, the uncut lower opening / closing member 31 is bent outside the memo section 20 of the main body 2. As a result, as shown in FIG. 2(b), the memo section 20 of the main body 2 is exposed to the outside, so the person who has received the memo sticker 1 can check the character M1 described in the memo section 20 of the main body 2.
[0038] Thus, according to the present embodiment described above, when concealing the memo part 20 of the main body 2 from the outside, the upper opening / closing member 30 is bent into the memo part 20 such that the adhesive surface 30c is overlapped and adhered to the lower opening / closing member 31 bent in the memo part 20. As a result, the characters M1 described on the memo part 20 of the main body 2 are concealed from the outside, so that it is possible to reduce the situation where the contents of the memo are known to others who have nothing to do with the memo.
[0039] Moreover, according to the present embodiment, since the memo sticker 1 is formed of a single piece of tack paper, the memo sticker 1 can be formed simply by printing and die-cutting, and thus the memo sticker 1 can be easily manufactured.
[0040] On the other hand, in the present embodiment, the sticking part 4 is provided on the back surface 24 of the main body 2 (the back surface of the memo part 20). During use, even if the back surface 4b of the sticking part 4 is peeled off from the back surface 24 of the main body 2, one end surface 4a of the sticking part 4 is not separated from the main body 2. As a result, the memo sticker 1 on which a memo is written can be easily attached to a desired position. Also, when not in use, if it is bent inside the main body 2 again with one end surface 4a of the sticking part 4 as a base point, the back surface 4b of the sticking part 4 is adhered to the back surface 24 of the main body 2. Thereby, when taking the memo sticker 1 home, it is possible to easily prevent the situation where the adhesive applied to the back surface 4b of the sticking part 4 is exposed to the outside and sticks to other objects.
[0041] Note that the shapes and the like shown in this embodiment are merely examples, and various modifications and changes are possible within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims. For example, in this embodiment, the upper cut line 33 and the lower cut line 34 are formed, but only one of them may be sufficient. As long as a part of the opening / closing part 3 can be cut off, it may be formed at any location of the opening / closing part 3. Thus, if a cut line that can cut off a part of the opening / closing part 3 is formed in the opening / closing part 3 in this way, it becomes possible to cut off a part of the opening / closing part 3 along the cut line. As a result, the user can easily confirm the character M1 described in the memo part 20 of the main body 2 hidden by the opening / closing part 3.
[0042] Also, as in this embodiment, if the upper cut line 33 is formed like the upper opening / closing member 30 so that the adhesive surface 30c can also be cut off, after hiding the memo part 20 of the main body 2, the upper opening / closing member 30 can be easily bent outside the memo part 20 of the main body 2. As a result, the user can more easily confirm the character M1 described in the memo part 20 of the main body 2 hidden by the opening / closing part 3.
[0043] On the other hand, in this embodiment, as the memo sticker 1, an example of a shape imitating a fish is illustrated, but it is not limited thereto, and any shape such as a bird may be used. However, if the main body 2 is formed in a shape imitating a fish and the opening / closing part 3 is formed in a shape imitating the trunk and tail of a fish as in this embodiment, when the memo part 20 of the main body 2 is exposed from the outside by the opening / closing part 3, it can be made into a shape as if the fish is caught. Thereby, it is possible to give the user a sense of surprise and improve the design.
[0044] Also, in this embodiment, as the opening / closing part 3, an example of being composed of the upper opening / closing member 30 and the lower opening / closing member 31 is shown, but it is not limited thereto, and it may be composed of more opening / closing members.
