Abstract
Abstract A label having a sublimation transferred image constituted of an image-receiving sheet, comprising a tacky layer, a sheet substrate and an image-receiving layer laminated in this order on a peeling sheet. The tacky layer, sheet substrate and image-receiving layer form a label portion, and the image-receiving sheet has a structure peelable between the label portion and the peeling sheet. The label has one or more frames of sublimation transferred images formed by transfer of a sublimable dye in a colorant layer of a heat transfer sheet by heating according to an image information. The label portion is applied with half-cut treatment with cutting lines for sectionalizing every frame of the sublimation transferred image.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
134 words
An image receiving sheet, comprising: a peeling sheet; an antistatic layer provided on said peeling sheet; a label portion adhered to said peeling sheet, said label portion comprising a tacky layer laminated on said peeling sheet, a sheet substrate laminated on said tacky layer, and an image-receiving layer laminated on said sheet substrate, said label portion having at least one frame of a sublimation transferred image formed in said image receiving layer by transferring a sublimable dye from a colorant layer of a heat transfer sheet to said image-receiving layer by heating according to an image formation; and cutting lines formed through said label portion to section said at least one frame of a sublimation transferred image, so as to allow individual peeling of sectioned frames of said label portion from said peeling sheet.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
134 words
An image receiving sheet, comprising: a peeling sheet; an antistatic layer provided on said peeling sheet; a label portion adhered to said peeling sheet, said label portion comprising a tacky layer laminated on said peeling sheet, a sheet substrate laminated on said tacky layer, and an image-receiving layer laminated on said sheet substrate, said label portion having at least one frame of a sublimation transferred image formed in said image receiving layer by transferring a sublimable dye from a colorant layer of a heat transfer sheet to said image-receiving layer by heating according to an image formation; and cutting lines formed through said label portion to section said at least one frame of a sublimation transferred image, so as to allow individual peeling of sectioned frames of said label portion from said peeling sheet.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
28 words
The image receiving sheet of claim 1, further comprising an intermediate layer having a cushioning and/or thermally insulating property provided between said sheet substrate and said image-receiving layer.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
12 words
The image receiving sheet of claim 1, further comprising a detection mark.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
