Description

  The present invention relates to a wristband that is used by being worn on a wrist, an ankle, or the like, and more particularly, to a wristband that includes a non-contact information recording unit capable of writing and reading information in a non-contact state.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a hospital or the like, a wristband is attached to the wrist or ankle of a patient who is hospitalized for examination or treatment, and the patient is identified and managed using the wristband. In this case, the patient's name, blood type, consultation subject, ward name, or barcode information for identifying the patient is printed on the surface of the wristband, and this information is read by the naked eye or a barcode reader. The patient is identified and managed (for example, refer to Patent Document 1). In recent years, it has been considered that an IC sheet that can write and read information in a non-contact state can be attached to a wristband printed with information that can identify a patient as described above. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2).

  Since the wristband described above is wound around the wrist or ankle and worn, the wristband has an elongated belt shape. Therefore, in a printer that prints information on the surface, the information is printed while carrying the wristband with the longitudinal direction of the belt-like shape as the carrying direction due to the limitation of the carrying width of the recording medium on which the information is printed. .

  Thus, when printing information while transporting the wristband with the longitudinal direction of the belt-like shape as the transport direction, the print width in the printer becomes very narrow, and the manufacturing efficiency is extremely poor. Therefore, it is conceivable to print information while arranging and transporting a plurality of band-shaped wristbands. In that case, the listbands are transported at the same time. There is a problem that a wasteful wristband is generated when only one band or less is required, such as one band.

  In addition, as described above, in a case where a non-contact information recording means capable of writing and reading information in a non-contact state is built-in, when the wristband is worn on the wrist or ankle, the non-contact type information Since the recording means will be in close proximity to the wrist or ankle surface, if the wrist or ankle is wet with sweat or the like, it will not be possible to write or read information in a non-contact state due to the moisture. There is a risk of it.

  The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the prior art as described above, and has a manufacturing efficiency when information is printed on the surface of the wrist or ankle while it can be mounted. In addition to being able to improve, it becomes impossible to write or read information in a non-contact state when a non-contact information recording means capable of writing and reading information in a non-contact state is built-in. An object of the present invention is to provide a wristband capable of avoiding this.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides:
A strip-shaped first sheet portion having a built-in non-contact information recording means capable of writing and / or reading information in a non-contact state, and strip-shaped strips connected to both longitudinal ends of the first sheet portion. In the wristband that has the second and third sheet parts, and becomes an annular shape by joining the second sheet part and the third sheet part,
The first sheet portion and the second and third sheet portions are connected so as to form a substantially U-shape at the first, second, and third sheet portions,
The first sheet portion is disposed inside the substantially U-shape with respect to the first area in which the non-contact information recording unit is built, and the first and second areas. The second region separated from the sheet portion is continuous in a foldable line extending in the longitudinal direction of the first sheet portion so as to be foldable.

  In the present invention configured as described above, the wristband is configured by the first, second, and third sheet portions that are connected to each other, and the first, second, and third sheet portions are substantially the same. Since it is connected so as to form a U-shape, when printing information on the wristband, it is not necessary to transport the wristband by the length of the wristband, and the manufacturing efficiency is improved. Further, the first sheet part has a built-in non-contact information recording means capable of writing and / or reading information in a non-contact state, and at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the first sheet part, Since the second and third seat parts are connected to each other so as to form a substantially U-shape with the first, second and third seat parts, the wristband is attached to the wrist or ankle. When the second sheet portion and the third sheet portion are joined to form an annular shape, the first sheet portion is raised from the wrist or ankle surface. For this reason, when this wristband is worn on the wrist or ankle, the non-contact information recording means does not come close to the wrist or ankle, and even if the wrist or ankle is wet with sweat, etc. It is avoided that information cannot be written or read in a contact state. Further, when the wristband is formed in an annular shape, when the first region and the second region of the first sheet portion are folded along the planned folding line, the first region in which the non-contact information recording unit is incorporated becomes the wrist. The wristband and the ankle surface are in an upright state, but the second region disposed inside the substantially U shape with respect to the first region abuts against the wrist or ankle surface. Discomfort caused by wearing can be reduced.

  As described above, in the present invention, the first, second and third seat portions constituting the wristband are connected so as to form a substantially U-shape. While being able to be mounted by winding, the manufacturing efficiency can be improved when information is printed on the surface. Further, the first sheet part has a built-in non-contact information recording means capable of writing and / or reading information in a non-contact state, and at both ends in the longitudinal direction of the first sheet part, Since the second and third seat portions are connected to each other so as to form a substantially U-shape with the first, second and third seat portions, this wristband is attached to the wrist or ankle. Then, when the second sheet portion and the third sheet portion are joined to form an annular shape, the first sheet portion stands up with respect to the surface of the wrist or ankle, thereby causing the wrist or ankle to sweat. Even when it is wet, etc., it can be avoided that information cannot be written or read in a non-contact state. In addition, the first sheet portion is disposed inside the first area in which the non-contact information recording unit is built in, the substantially U-shaped inner side with respect to the first area, and the second and third sheets Since the separated second region is configured to be foldable along the planned folding line extending in the longitudinal direction of the first sheet portion, the first region and the second region are separated from each other. If this wristband is worn on the wrist or ankle while being folded in the direction of the folding line, the first area containing the non-contact information recording means stands up against the wrist or ankle surface. The second area disposed inside the substantially U-shape with respect to the first area comes into contact with the surface of the wrist or ankle, thereby reducing the uncomfortable feeling caused by wearing the wristband. it can.

It is.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  1A and 1B are diagrams showing an embodiment of a wristband of the present invention, in which FIG. 1A is a diagram showing an overall configuration, FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA ′ shown in FIG. ) Is a cross-sectional view along the line BB ′.

  In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a top sheet 3 and a support sheet 4 are configured to be bonded by an adhesive 6 with an inlet 5 serving as a non-contact information recording unit interposed therebetween, and the support sheet 4 is a pseudo-adhesive layer. 7 is detachably attached to the mount 2. This pseudo sticking layer 7 is made of a material that can be peeled off using a film having a two-layer structure, or a material that can be stuck only by itself.

  The wristband 1 detachably attached to the mount 2 in this way is composed of a strip-shaped first sheet portion 11, second sheet portion 12 and third sheet portion 13, and both longitudinal ends of the sheet portion 11. The sheet parts 12 and 13 are connected to the part so as to form a substantially U-shape with the sheet parts 11 to 13.

  The inlet 5 includes an antenna 15 having a strip shape and an IC chip 14 connected to the antenna 15, and is built in the sheet portion 11. The antenna 15 is arranged so as to extend in the longitudinal direction of the sheet portion 11, and a current flows in resonance with a radio wave irradiated from the outside. This current is supplied to the IC chip 14, whereby the antenna 15 is connected to the IC chip 14. Information is written and read out in a non-contact state.

  As described above, the seat portion 11 incorporates the inlet 5 and is curved so as to swell outside the substantially U-shape formed by the seat portions 11 to 13. In addition, slits 21a and 21b cut from the substantially U-shaped inner side toward the center in the width direction of the sheet part 11 are formed at the connection parts with the sheet parts 12 and 13, respectively. Anchor holes 22a and 22b penetrating from the top sheet 3 to the support sheet 4 are formed at the ends of 21a and 21b, respectively. The line connecting the two anchor holes 22a and 22b can be folded as a planned fold line 19 that is a fold planned line. That is, the sheet portion 11 has a substantially U-shaped outer side as a first region containing the inlet 5 through the planned mountain fold line 19, and the substantially U-shaped inner side is formed by the slits 21 a and 21 b. The parts 12 and 13 are separated second regions, and the first region and the second region are continuous with each other at a planned mountain fold line 19 so as to be foldable.

  The sheet part 12 protrudes through a mountain fold line 18 in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the sheet part 12 at an end part on the opposite side to the connection side with the sheet part 11 among both end parts in the longitudinal direction. A portion 17 is provided. A plurality of holes 16 a are formed side by side in the longitudinal direction, and a hole 16 c is also formed in the protrusion 17. The holes 16 a and 16 c penetrate the top sheet 3, the support sheet 4, and the mount 2.

  The sheet portion 13 is formed with a plurality of holes 16 b arranged in the longitudinal direction, and the holes 16 b penetrate the top sheet 3, the support sheet 4, and the mount 2.

  Below, the usage method of the wristband 1 comprised as mentioned above is demonstrated.

  First, using a printer capable of printing information and writing information to the IC chip 14, an area that becomes the sheet portion 11 of the topsheet 3 in a state where the wristband 1 is attached to the mount 2. The information is printed on the IC chip 14 and the information is written in the IC chip 14 of the inlet 5. For example, when the wristband 1 is worn on the wrist or ankle of a patient admitted for examination or treatment in a hospital or the like, the patient's name, blood type, etc. Is printed, and information about the patient such as the patient's name, blood type, subject to be examined, and ward name is written on the IC chip 14. At this time, in a state where the wristband 1 is mounted on the mount 2, the three sheet portions 11 to 13 constituting the wristband 1 are connected so as to form a substantially U-shape. The entire belt 1 is not in the shape of a long and narrow band, so that it is not necessary to print information while the wristband 1 is conveyed in the longitudinal direction, thereby improving manufacturing efficiency. In addition, by printing information on the surface sheet 3 and writing information on the IC chip 14 in a single device, information printed on the surface sheet 3 and information written on the IC chip 14 Matching errors can be prevented.

  The wristband 1 in which information is printed on the surface sheet 3 and information is written on the IC chip 14 in this way is peeled off from the mount 2 and, as described above, for example, on the wrist or ankle of the patient in a hospital or the like. It will be installed and used. The wristband 1 attached to the mount 2 can be peeled off from the mount 2 because the support sheet 4 is attached to the mount 2 by the pseudo adhesive layer 7 as described above.

  FIG. 2 is a diagram for explaining how to use the wristband 1 shown in FIG.

  When the wristband 1 peeled off from the mount 2 is attached to the wrist or ankle, first, as shown in FIG. The sheet part 11 is separated from the sheet parts 12 and 13 by slits 21a and 21b through the slits 21a and 21b through a substantially U-shaped mountain fold line 19 formed by the three sheet parts 11 to 13. Therefore, it is possible to make a mountain fold at the planned mountain fold line 19.

  Next, the three sheet parts 11 to 13 are wound around the wrist or ankle, and as shown in FIG. 2B, the sheet part 12 and the sheet part 13 are opposite in the longitudinal direction. In addition, the sheet portion 12 and the sheet portion 13 are overlapped so that the back surface of the sheet portion 12 faces the surface of the sheet portion 13. At this time, the hole 16a formed in the seat portion 12 and the hole 16b formed in the seat portion 13 are overlapped with each other in accordance with the thickness of the wrist or ankle to be attached.

  Then, as shown in FIG. 2C, the protruding portion 17 of the sheet portion 12 is folded along a planned fold line 18, and the sheet portion 13 is sandwiched between the sheet portion 12 and the protruding portion 17. Then, the hole 16c formed in the protrusion 17 overlaps with the holes 16a and 16b that overlap each other. In this state, a clip or the like is inserted so as to penetrate through the three overlapped holes 16a to 16c to join the two sheet parts 12 and 13, and the wristband 1 is formed around the wrist and ankle. As described above, when the two sheet portions 12 and 13 are joined with the sheet portion 13 being sandwiched between the sheet portion 12 and the protruding portion 17, one side of the sheet portion 13 is folded into the protruding portion 17. So that the relative angle of the sheet portion 13 with respect to the sheet portion 12 is fixed so that the sheet portion 12 and the sheet portion 13 are aligned, and the sheet portion 13 is fixed to the sheet portion 12. Does not rotate in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure centering on the joint portion by a clip or the like.

  3A and 3B are views showing a state where the wristband 1 shown in FIG. 1 is actually attached to the wrist, wherein FIG. 3A is an external view, and FIG. 3B is a side view of the wristband 1 in a state where the wristband 1 is attached to the wrist. It is the figure seen from the direction.

  As described above, the wristband 1 shown in FIG. 1 includes three sheets 12 and 13 at the longitudinal ends of the sheet 11 in which the inlet 5 having the IC chip 14 and the antenna 15 is incorporated. Since the portions 11 to 13 are connected to each other so as to form a substantially U-shape, when attached to the wrist 8 in an annular shape as shown in FIG. 2, as shown in FIG. Then, the sheet portion 11 in which the inlet 5 having the IC chip 14 and the antenna 15 is built up stands with respect to the surface of the wrist 8. For this reason, the inlet 5 built in the seat portion 11 does not come close to the surface of the wrist 8 to which the wristband 1 is attached, so that the wrist 8 to which the wristband 1 is attached becomes sweaty or the like. Even when it is wet, it can be avoided that information cannot be written or read in the inlet 5 in a non-contact state.

  In addition, as described above, the seat portion 11 is in a standing state with respect to the surface of the wrist 8, but the seat portion 11 is configured to be foldable along a planned fold line 19 extending in the longitudinal direction. The inlet 5 is incorporated outside through a substantially U-shaped planned fold line 19 formed by the three sheet portions 11 to 13, and the inner side is formed by slits 21 a and 21 b through the planned fold line 19. When the wristband 1 is attached to the wrist 8 in a state where the seat portion 11 is mountain-folded along the planned mountain fold line 19, the region where the inlet 5 is incorporated is the wrist 8. While standing up with respect to the surface, as shown in FIG. 3 (b), the inner side comes in contact with the surface of the wrist 8 through the mountain fold line 19, so that the wristband 1 can be worn. by It is possible to reduce the sum feeling.

  In the present embodiment, in the seat portion 11, the first region in which the inlet 5 is built, and the substantially U-shaped inner side formed by the three seat portions 11 to 13 with respect to the first region. The second region separated from the sheet portions 12 and 13 is continuous so as to be foldable along a planned fold line 19 extending in the longitudinal direction of the sheet portion 11. The first region and the second region may be continuous so as to be foldable instead of mountain-folded, that is, it may be continuous so as to be foldable along the planned folding line.

  In this embodiment, the two sheet portions 12 and 13 are inserted by inserting clips or the like so as to penetrate through the holes 16 a to 16 c formed in the two sheet portions 12 and 13 connected to the sheet portion 11. Although what was joined was demonstrated as an example, the means to join the two sheet parts 12 and 13 is not restricted to this, A protrusion is provided in one of the two sheet parts 12 and 13, and this protrusion is engage | inserted in the other. Various things, such as what provides a hole part and joins the two sheet parts 12 and 13 by inserting this protrusion in a hole part, can be considered.

  In this embodiment, information is printed on a portion of the top sheet 3 that becomes the sheet portion 11. However, if the holes 16 a to 16 c are avoided, the other sheet portions 12 of the top sheet 3. , 13 may be printed.
