Abstract:
A system and method are described for the production of color selection swatch cards for point of purchase displays of custom blended paints, textiles or plastics using a digital inkjet printer and custom blended inkjet inks based on a set of base inks that can be blended using commercial match prediction software. The base inks are matched spectrally to the base paints, dyes or plastics.
Abstract:
A dissolvable produce washing label includes a dissolvable facestock impregnated with a produce cleanser; an adhesive layer; and a coating to seal and protect from water and humidity. When rubbed and washed with water by the end user the top coating wears and breaks to expose the dissolvable substrate, thereby dissolving the facestock and releasing the produce wash.
Abstract:
A three dimensional printed article (10) having a composite image (110) printed thereon is disclosed. The composite image includes top and bottom artwork portions (210, 310) printed on the top and bottom surfaces (200, 300) of the printed article substrate (100). Both artwork portions are visible through a translucent or transparent substrate, thereby forming a visible composite image. The substrate can be a non-woven web. By printing on both surfaces of the substrate, the three dimensional printed article provides a good quality, aesthetically pleasing three-dimensional image that limits the loss of color and appearance of fuzz during normal use of the article. The three-dimensional printed article allows a more versatile creation of process colors and reduces the number of spot colors required to print the composite image. The three-dimensional printed article can be integrated into an absorbent article (12), such as a diaper. A method of printing the three- dimensional printed article and forming the absorbent article are also disclosed.
Abstract:
A means for identifying personal items such as luggage comprises sheet members (10) with a distinctive outer peripheral profile and colour. The member or members is pre-selected by a user from a kit-of-parts with several groups of members (10) with different shapes but all with the same colour. The chosen member (10) is applied to the item of luggage and fixed with a contact adhesive. The user then keeps a counterpart or replica (10') of the chosen member (10) for proof of ownership and identification.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a laminated-film material which includes a pattern film divided by regularly spaced gaps into a series of zones spaced at intervals and overlaid with a surface film. The laminated-film material is characterized in that the surface film is divided up in the same way as the pattern film by regularly spaced gaps so that surface-film zones thus formed are contiguous with zones of the pattern film at at least two edges. A continuous intermediate film is located between the pattern film and the cover film. Both pattern film and surface film have at least two zones.
Abstract:
A method of forming a sheet of material with indicia thereon comprises applying indicia to the sheet by an electrostatic copying process in which a toner powder is deposited on the sheet and is heated to cause it to fuse. The sheet of material comprises a flexible support layer that is provided with a porous coating of a latent curable material, preferably in particulate and/or filamentary form and especially one based on an epoxy material. It has been found that the indicia are more indelible than those formed on other surfaces by the same process even though the fused toner is not absorbed by the curable material.
Abstract:
A drug delivery device includes a housing, a reservoir, a cannula, one or more light sources, a label, and a controller. The reservoir is disposed within the housing. The cannula is connected to the reservoir for delivering a drug from the reservoir to the patient. The light sources are disposed adjacent the exterior surface of the housing, and each serves to indicate one of one or more operational conditions of the device. The label is fixed to the housing adjacent the light sources, and includes one or more informational messages. Each informational message is aligned with one of the light sources for conveniently conveying to a user an operational condition of the device as indicated by the corresponding light source. Finally, the controller is operably connected to the reservoir and the light sources. The controller is configured to actuate the reservoir to deliver the drug, and to selectively illuminate the one or more light sources based on the operational condition of the drug delivery device.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a roll of adhesive labels. The method includes the step of providing a plurality of adhesive labels fixed to a backing sheet. A predetermined number of labels are removed from the backing sheet to thereby form a leading edge of the sheet that only includes the backing sheet and no labels. The leading edge includes no labels to thereby facilitate mounting the sheet of carrier material on a printing or applicator machine.

본 발명은 에폭시 스티커 및 그 제조방법에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 자세하게는 인쇄부 형상을 따라 인쇄 라인을 먼저 형성한 후 상기 인쇄 라인 안쪽으로 에폭시 인쇄를 하여 대면적 생산이 용이하고 입체감이 우수한 에폭시 스티커 및 그 제조방법에 대한 것이다.
Abstract:
A bag includes a flexible web that is shaped into the shape of a bag and a communication member attached to the flexible web with an adhesive. When the communication member is removed from the web, substantially no adhesive remains on the web. An advertising medium includes a packaging material made of a first material and a communication member applied to the packaging material. The communication member has a first part that is positioned directly adjacent the packaging material and a second part positioned on the first part that is made of the same material or a different material as the first part. One or both of the first part and second part are removable from the packaging material without substantially marring the surface of the packaging material.
