Description

Device for identification and individualization and method of its manufacture.

The claimed group of inventions relates to the field of manufacturing markings on various products for identification and individualization, for example, numbers, letters, surface pattern, surface or decorative images, on a substrate.

Silicone is a modern material, which has recently been widely demanded. Outwardly, it is similar to rubber, but has unique properties. Silicone has the ability to tolerate temperature extremes from - 60 to +300 degrees Celsius, while retaining its original properties, resistant to mechanical and environmental influences. It tolerates sea and fresh water, oils, ozone, alcohols, and even weak solutions of acid and alkali. In addition, it is very flexible and durable, as well as hypoallergenic.

Many modern products are made from silicone, while silicone is used not only in industry, but also in the manufacture of souvenir and other products. They make silicone: pens, bracelets, key rings, ice molds, swimming caps for phones and tablets, covers, buttons, panels, calculators, anti-stress, wallets, headphone cases, bottles, toys and much more.

The main problem of all companies involved in marking silicone products is the application of an individual identification image on each product with the required mass circulation, for example, 100 or 1000 pieces. The complexity of manufacturing silicone bracelets themselves lies in the need to make a complex stamp (mold), which requires a special, expensive milling machine.

The task to which the claimed group of technical solutions is directed is to develop an effective method for the production of devices for identification and individualization, taking into account the case when it is necessary on each of the devices for identification and individualization from the total number of units of a large batch, apply individual marking.

The claimed device for identification and individualization is made of 100% silicone, on which it is problematic to write something on your own or, for example, to put serial numbers, especially considering the case when it is necessary on each of the devices for identification and individualization, from a large number of lots, apply individual marking. Moreover, the process is long and not economically viable, that is, not effective. Thus, the claimed group of inventions is aimed at ensuring the manufacture of individualized markings on a silicone substrate with low equipment costs.

The claimed group of technical solutions includes a device for identifying products containing a silicone base made with a cylindrical surface with a continuous layer of paint of an elastomeric series applied on it with an area equal to 5-25% of the surface of the silicone base, on which an identification mark is applied using a laser machine, as well as a production method device for product identification, namely, that the silicone base is performed with a cylindrical surface, applied to part of the surface forces horse base with an area equal to 5-25% of the surface of the silicone base, a continuous layer of paint of the elastomeric series and using a laser machine with a tube power of 20 to 60 W, an identification mark is applied at an engraving power equal to 20-50% of the laser tube power and speed from 100 to 600 mm / s, and tinting pastes are used for applying paint.

The technical result consists in reducing the production time, and simplifying the production process of performing individual individual markings in the manufacture of devices for identification and individualization.

Experimentally, we selected the most optimal production modes that allow us to achieve the above technical result, while ensuring economic benefits for both the manufacturer and the buyer. So, a CO2 laser machine with a tube power of 20 to 60 W is used, the parameters of the engraving mode are as follows:

power: from 20 to 50% of the power of the laser tube;

speed: from 100 to 600 mm / s.

When applying a continuous layer of paint, the TE series paint (elastomeric series) is used.

Features: low viscosity

Advantages: good fluidity, good glossy effect.

Application: Apply as a top coat when printing to achieve a glossy effect.

In one of the embodiments of the claimed group, the identification designation is obtained in the color of the bracelet (for example, a red bracelet, white paint, and the resulting identification designation is red), thereby significantly increasing the identification efficiency by increasing the distance at which the device for identification and individualization remains high indicators of clarity of perception and distinctive ability. Moreover, for coloring in any color, tinting pastes are also used if necessary to obtain color.

Main characteristics:

Description:

used for manual / automatic printing to achieve a crystal-gloss effect.

How to use: Components A and B should be mixed in a 1: 1 ratio.

Paints of the TE series are intended only for application as a top coat. The last layer of the base print should not be overdried to avoid peeling.

For coloring, tinting pastes produced by Spika Technology LLC are used, depending on the desired color and the need to obtain Pantone color.

The range of TE paint includes 4 series:

Paints of various colors are compatible with each other and mixed in any ratio to obtain the desired color.

The drying process takes place in the temperature range from 160 to 200 C.

The drying process may be interrupted by contact with materials such as amines, sulfur, tin. The effect of printing is to avoid drying out completely, to maintain a sticky feel. In some cases, this can be restored by subsequent heating.

Cleaning: After application, the paint can be removed from the equipment using butyl acetate or a hydrocarbon solvent (white spirit). Polar solvents (water, methanol, acetone) are not suitable.

In particular, the claimed device for identification and individualization can be wardrobe-number bracelets, which are an alternative to standard wardrobe numbers, but do not break, do not get lost, as they can be worn on the hand, there is also the possibility of putting additional information on the bracelet such as company name or company ad. Also, the claimed device can be used in various lockers (stores Pyaterochka, Magnit, railway, air stations, etc.).
