DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
The present invention relates to a process for producing products held on a carrier, such as packaged product samples, credit cards, identification cards, ID cards and the like, and also the products produced by this process.
Various processes for producing packaged product samples, for example perfume, which are integrated in a carrier are known (see for example WO-A94/05182).
These carriers with the packaged product samples are then, for example, placed, stapled or stuck into newspapers, periodicals and advertising material.
Furthermore, it is likewise known to integrate credit cards, ID cards and identification cards into a carrier in such a way that the cards can be broken out.
The present invention is thus based on the object of providing a process of the type mentioned at the beginning which makes it possible in a simple and inexpensive way to produce products integrated into a carrier.
The process according to the invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the figures, in which, purely schematically:
FIGS. 1-4 show in plan view various phases in the production of a first embodiment of a packaged product sample, integrated in a carrier material,
FIGS. 5-7 show in a representation corresponding to FIGS. 1-4 various phases in the production of a second embodiment of a packaged product sample, integrated in a carrier material,
FIGS. 8 and 9 show in a representation corresponding to FIGS. 2 and 3 various phases in the production of a third embodiment of a packaged product sample, integrated in a carrier material,
FIG. 10 shows on an enlarged scale a section through the product sample produced as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9,
FIGS. 11 and 12 show in plan view various phases in the production of a first embodiment of a card integrated in a carrier material,
FIG. 13 shows a section along the line XIII--XIII in FIG. 12,
FIGS. 14 and 15 show in a representation corresponding to FIGS. 11 and 12 various phases in the production of a second embodiment of a card integrated in a carrier material,
FIG. 16 shows a section along the line XVI--XVI in FIG. 15, and
FIG. 17 shows in a representation corresponding to FIG. 14 a phase in the production of a third embodiment of a card integrated in a carrier material.
In the production of a first embodiment of a packaged product sample integrated in a carrier material 1 (FIGS. 1-4), in a first step, two adjacent regions 2,3 are prepared in two sections 1a, 1b of the carrier material 1, which may be a sheet or a web of paper or plastic. In a first operation, two openings 4 and 5 are punched out in these regions 2 and 3 (FIG. 1). Subsequently, an adhesive is applied in regions 6 and 7, respectively, surrounding the openings 4 and 5 (FIG. 2). Then, a section of material 8, 9, for example a section of film, is placed over each opening 4, 5 and adhesively attached to the carrier material 1 in the region 6 and 7, respectively, provided in advance with an adhesive (FIG. 3). The sections of material 8 and 9 may be transparent or opaque and, if appropriate, also bear printing.
The product sample 10 is then applied in liquid or solid form, as a paste, powder or granules, to one of the two sections of material 8, 9, in the present case to the section of material 8. In the next step, by folding over the section of carrier material 1b in the direction of arrow A about the line denoted by 11, the section of material 9 is placed onto the section of material 8 lying opposite with respect to the folding line 11. In the regions 2 and 3 lying one over the other, the sections of carrier material 1a, 1b are bonded to each other in such a way that a seal is formed around the product sample 10. This may be performed by adhesive bonding and/or stamping or in some other suitable way. The packaged product sample 10 is then packaged between the sections of material 8 and 9 and is integrated in the carrier material 1.
If one of the two sections of material 8, 9 is transparent, the product sample 10 can be seen.
In order to be able to break the packaged product sample out from the carrier m
