Abstract
The present invention provides a method of reproducing an image protected against weathering on a memorial for outdoor use. The method comprises copying the image onto an image transfer member, coating the memorial with an image receiving material, heating the image transfer member and the memorial with the image receiving material thereon and pressing the heated image transfer member into the heated image receiving material until a reproduction of the image is transferred from the transfer member and is fused into the image receiving material. The method further includes the application of a clear protective coating over the reproduction of the image transferred onto the memorial. Both the image receiving material and the clear protective coating are treated to deter penetration of ultra-violet radiation to the reproduction of the image fused in the image receiving material on the memorial. Both coatings are impact resistant and provide protection against other external elements such as salt, humidity and the like.
Description
SJ-9021~S - 1 -TITLE: METHOD OF PRODUCING A IMAGE ON A BACKING
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a method of reproducing an image on an outdoor use memorial.
BACKGROUND OE THE INVENTION
There are currently available different products which include the reproduction of a picture or some other type of a image placed on a backing intended strictly for outdoor use. One such product is a memorial bearing an image placed on an outdoor monument. The difficulty that these types of products face is that they are constantly exposed to external elements causing them to show the signs of weathering within a relatively short time period.
A monument memorial which is currently available comprises an image painted from a photograph and baked onto a porcelain backing. This particular product does weather reasonably well but it is very difficult to reproduce the likeness including the coloring from the photograph through the hand painting process.
There is also currently available a monument memorial in which an actual photograph is fixed to a rigid backing and then covered by a sheet of clear plastic material placed over the image. This memorial does not suffer from the inaccurate reproduction drawbacks noted above with respect to the hand painting procedure, but it does suffer from other no less serious problems. In particular, the sheet of material which is subject to cracking must be cut to the size of the backing.
Furthermore, it is difficult to effectively seal the photograph between the backing and the outer sheet of plastic material and further the photograph itself quickly deteriorates under the effects of ultra-violet radiation 2~25310 -SJ-9OalUS - 2 -which causeS washout and fading of coloring in the photograph.
5 SI~ARY OF THE INVENT ION
The present invention relates to a method of reproducing an image protected against weathering on a memorial intended for outdoor use.
According to the method the image is copied onto an image transfer member and the memorial which is preferably in the form of a porcelain tile or other suitable backing is coated with an image receiving material. The image transfer member and the memorial with the image receiving 15 material thereon are both heated and the heated image transfer member is pressed into the heated image receiving material until a reproduction of the image is transferred from the transfer member and is fused into the image receiving material. A clear protective coating is then applied in the liquid state and hardens over the reproduction of the image transferred to the memorial.
Both the image receiving material and the clear protective coating are treated to deter penetration of 25 ultra-violet radiation to the reproduction of the image fused in the image receiving material. In addition, both coatings which are very impact resistant provide protection against other external elements such as salt, humidity and the like.
A product made in accordance with the present invention comprises an outdoor use memorial with an image received from an image transfer member fused into an image receiving material on the memorial. The image receiving material with the image fused therein is covered by a clear protective coating. Both the image receiving material and the clear protective coating include elements which block penetration of ultra-violet radiation to the reproduction of the image fused in the image receiving material on the memorial. In addition, both coatings are impact, mar, salt, humidity and other weathering element resistant.

DETAILED DF~CRIPTION ACCORDING TO THE PREFERRED
EMBODIMENTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
Figure 1 shows a monument 1 as it is found in its outdoor use. A memorial 3 is mounted to the monument.
This memorial 3 comprises a rigid backing 7 on which an image 5 is permanently mounted. In the specific embodiment shown, backing 7 is then completed with a decorative border 11 .
The key to the present invention lies in the fact that the image as applied to the backing is protected against weathering which would otherwise distort or take away from the image. Outdoor weather conditions which must be resisted include ultra-violet radiation deterioration, humidity, salt and marring through physical contact which would could cause scratching or chipping of the image.
Memorial 3 is specifically designed to resist all of these as well as other outdoor conditions.
The particular process as disclosed is one in which the image 5 is copied from a photograph. The photograph itself has the benefit that it provides a very good likeness of the subject shown in the image. This is particularly important for memorials where the person who orders the memorial is able to choose a favorite photograph which would bring back pleasant memories of the person represented by the memorial. It is therefore important that the photograph be copied in an extremely accurate manner and that the copy itself should not be flawed.
SJ-9021Ug - 5 -Figure 2 of the drawings shows a photograph 13 from which the image 5 on memorial 3 has been copied. This photograph is copied through an electronic processing system comprising a scanner 15 which scans and digitally reproduces the image shown on the photograph on a monitor 17. The reproduction of the photograph on the monitor screen is indicated at 19. Any blemishes or the like which appear on the photograph can be electronically touched up directly on the image 19 appearing on the monitor. The touch up can include things such as the brightening of colors or the elimination of imperfections which appear on the image.
After the desired image has been produced as shown on the monitor, it is then printed out on a printer 21.
The actual printout itself is indicated at 23 in the form of an image transfer member. This image transfer member has the ability when subjected to proper conditions, to allow a transfer of the exact image on the print out to another surface specifically adapted to receive the image.
One product that is particularly suitable as an image transfer member is sold by Imagedata, a U.K. company under the trade mark ICI~.
Figure 3 of the drawings shows rigid backing 7 before receiving a copy of the image from image transfer member 23. Figure 4 shows a sectional view along the lines 4-4 from the backing of Figure 3. Figure 4 also shows that backing 7 which in this particular application is preferably a porcelain tile is covered with a layer 9 of image receiving material.
Porcelain is a particularly suitable choice for the backing in that it is durable and strong while at the same time, it has extremely esthetically pleasing qualities for 212S31~
-its intended use. It is however to be appreciated that other durable backing materials including different types of metals and the like can also be used for the backing.
In the specific embodiment shown, the image receiving material 9 is the form of a modified polyurethane applied in the liquid state which then hardens and bonds directly to the tile. Layer 9 contains elements which block the penetration of ultra-violet radiation through the layer. Polyurethane is a particularly good selection because of its ability to contain ultra-violet blocking elements and also because of its durability.
Although modified polyurethane is the material that is used in the preferred embodiments of the present invention, it is to be appreciated that other durable materials having W resistance properties can also be used to provide the image receiving layer 9.
One example of a product that is particularly suitable for use as the image receiving material on the backing is a high gloss enamel manufactured by Trebor Industries Ltd. of Brampton, Ontario, under the trade mark STARATHANE 550~. This particular enamel is a glossy, hard, weather and chemical resistant acrylic polyester modified polyurethane. Although STARATHANE 550~ does contain W sun blockers as purchased off of the shelf, it is preferred in accordance with the present invention to have further commercially available W blockers added to the enamel.
Another product which is good for use as the image receiving material is manufactured and sold by Tempo Paint, a division of Tower Chemicals of Weston, Ontario, Canada and comprises a one to one mixture of a urethane base sold under the trade mark 4600-CG-l and a urethane catalyst sold under the trade mark 4600-C-l. Again, in accordance with -the preferred embodiments of the present invention, this coding is treated with additional commercially available W
blockers.
It has been noted above that a preferred material for the backing is porcelain tile. Porcelain tiles may come in different colors or have a black or white finish. When working with a porcelain tile, the image receiving material is preferably left clear so that the backing shows through.
However, when working with other backings such as for example a metal surface, it is preferred to add a coloring agent to the image receiving material to hide the metallic surface and present a more esthetically pleasing appearance.
Figure 4 of the drawings also shows the image transfer member 23 placed above tile 7 with the copied image facing down towards the image receiving layer or material 9 on the tile. Here it should be noted that image transfer member 23 is specifically sized from printer 21 to match the size of the tile.
Figure 5 of the drawings shows tile 7 with the image transfer member 23 placed directly on the upper surface of the tile in a heated press 27. The heat from the press heats both the image transfer member and the tile and pressure is applied on the image transfer member to press it onto the image receiving material 9. The combination of heat and pressure causes the image on transfer member 23 to transfer or reproduce in the image receiving material. The transfer is such that the image from the transfer member actually fuses in the layer 23 on the tile 7.
After the image has been transferred by the heating and pressing step of Figure 5, the tile now carrying the image is removed for cleaning as shown in Figure 6.
Material from the image transfer member will typically melt onto the tile and can be cleaned by polishing using normal solvents and the like. These solvents will lift extraneous material on the surface of the tile but will not effect the image which has now been fused into the layer 23.
After the extraneous surface material has been removed, the tile carrying the fused image is placed in a tank 29 containing liquified coating material 31. After the tile has been immersed, it is removed from the tank and the coating material hardens to produce a clear protective cover which is chemically bonded to the under layer 23 on the backing. Once again, the preferred material used in forming the clear protective coating is a modified polyurethane with W blockers. In fact, it is preferably the same material used in forming the image receiving layer. Although even when working with a metallic backing there is never any coloring agent added to the protective coating.
In order to cure or harden the protective coating, tile 7 after being treated as per Figure 7, is then placed in an air drying unit 33 shown in Figure 8 of the drawings.
This air drying unit allows a flow of curing air to pass across the outer surface of the tile as indicated by the arrows in Figure 8 while at the same time the air drying unit protects the outer coating on the backing against dust and dirt and the like while the tile is curing.
It is found that particularly effective curing is achieved under low humidity conditions of for example about 50% relative humidity at a temperature of about 80-F
maintained within curing unit 33 for about 8 hours. It is however to be appreciated that these are only recommended curing conditions and that other humidity levels and temperatures can also be used within the curing unit.
~125~10 The final curing of the outer protective coating on the tile is accomplished by baking it within an oven 35.
Again, the preferred conditions in the oven are to bake at about 200'F for about 15-20 minutes. The tile is then removed from the oven and in order to produce optimum results is allowed to further set for about another week before finally adding the border and shipping to the customer.
Testing under laboratory induced ultra-violet radiation conditions, has shown that a memorial made in accordance with the method steps described above is able to maintain accuracy of the image with little or no fading over what would be comparable to many years of normal outdoor exposure. Furthermore, the materials used to both receive and further cover the image are on their own essentially impervious to outdoor weathering elements such as salt and humidity and the like. They are also very scratch and mar resistant resulting in a memorial which maintains its clarity and esthetic appeal through many years of outdoor use.
It is to be appreciated that although specific examples have been described above, variations can be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
