Patch having easily detachable release sheet
A patch permitting division of only its release sheet by simply pulling right and left, wherein detachment of the release sheet is easy. There is provided a patch comprising a stretchable support, a plaster applied substantially all over one major surface of the support and a release sheet attached to the whole surface of the plaster wherein only the release sheet is divided at a division zone by simply pulling right and left, and wherein one or two or more precut parts that open when the patch is pulled right and left are disposed in the neighborhood on the division zone.
1. A patch comprising a stretchable support, an adhesive mass laminated substantially all over one surface of the support and a release sheet attached to the entire surface of the adhesive mass wherein only the release sheet is divided at a division zone by simply pulling apart, and wherein one or more precut parts that are opened when the patch is pulled apart are provided in the release sheet near the division zone so that edges of the divided release sheet turn up upon pulling apart to facilitate detachment of the release sheet from the adhesive mass.
2. The patch according to claim 1 , wherein the division zone is arranged in an S-shaped pattern, a wavy pattern or a zigzag pattern.
3. The patch according to claim 1 , wherein the division zone is arranged in a straight-line pattern.
4. The patch according to claim 1 , wherein the division zone is arranged in a T-shaped pattern.
5. The patch according to claim 4 , wherein the longitudinal bar of a T-shape is parallel to pulling direction of the patch and the tip of said longitudinal bar is pointed toward the division zone.
6. The patch according to claim 1 , wherein the precut part is provided convexly toward the pulling directions from the division zone.
7. The patch according to claim 6 , wherein the division zone is arranged in a V-shaped pattern or a circular arc pattern.
8. The patch according to claim 1 , wherein the release sheet is one piece of release sheet having a division zone, and only the release sheet is divided at the division zone due to the difference in a rate of elongation between the release sheet and the support by simply pulling the patch apart.
