Abstract

A label having a region for re-application, capable of ensuring a tensile strength of a strip-shaped backing liner from which label main bodies have been separated even when a region for re-application is provided in a wide range across a width direction. This label includes: label main bodies 2 with a back surface to which an adhesive 3 is applied and with regions for re-application 21 , and a strip-shaped backing liner 1 along which the plurality of label main bodies 2 are arranged and temporarily attached at intervals. The strip-shaped backing liner 1 includes a plurality of re-separation backing partial regions 12 at intervals across a width direction perpendicular to the arrangement direction so as to correspond to the region for re-application 21 defined in each label main body 2 . Each re-separation backing partial region of the liner being provided over a range wider than the region for re-application 21 in a direction of the arrangement of the label main bodies 2 . A region between the adjacent re-separation backing regions 12 in the width direction and not temporarily attached in the back surface of the region for re-application 21 is processed as a non-adhesive region 31.

Claims (13)

1. At least one label, each label having at least one region for re-application configured to be re-separated from a first object of application after application and to be re-applied to a second object of application, each label comprising:

a main body having a back surface to which an adhesive is applied and at least one region for re-application which is defined by a label separation cutting line which is in a closed state around the region for re-application; wherein

a strip-shaped backing liner has an arrangement direction along which a plurality of label main bodies are arranged and temporarily attached at intervals along the backing liner between the main bodies, and wherein

a plurality of re-separation backing regions is provided on the backing liner at intervals across a width direction which is perpendicular to the arrangement direction and corresponding to each region for re-application defined in each label main body, a backing separation cut line shaped in a closed state defining each re-separation backing region in the backing liner and the cut line shape being provided over a wider range than the region for re-application in the arrangement direction, a dimension of each region for re-application in the width direction being greater than a dimension in the width direction of each of the plurality of re-separation backing regions corresponding to the region for re-application, and

a non-adhesive region is provided between adjacent re-separation backing regions in the width direction which is not temporarily attached in the back surface of the region for re-application.

2. The at least one label having at least one region for re-application according to claim 1 , wherein

the re-separation backing regions have ends across the width direction and both of the ends respectively include both end portions of the region for re-application across the width direction.

3. The at least one label having at least one region for re-application according to claim 2 further comprising:

a pickable portion enclosed and defined by the label separation cutting line in a closed state continuous from one end portion of each region for re-application across the width direction, so that separation of the corresponding region for re-application may be started at the pickable portion and wherein

the non-adhesive region extends slightly over the re-separation backing regions on both sides in the width direction.

4. The at least one label having at least one region for re-application according to claim 1 further comprising:

a pickable portion enclosed and defined by the label separation cutting line in a closed state continuous from one end portion of each region for re-application across the width direction, so that separation of the corresponding region for re-application may be started at the pickable portion and wherein

the non-adhesive region extends slightly over the re-separation backing regions on both sides in the width direction.
