The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a shutter and a method of manufacturing a toy figure (toy figure).
Background
Image manufacturing techniques for painting using a mask have been proposed. For example, patent document JPS61-119291A discloses a manufacturing method of an electroformed shield for a painting doll. In the method, a predetermined position of a face of a doll head is dry-transferred in advance, and then electroformed using the doll head to form an electroformed shield of the doll head. The dry-transferred shape is cut out at a transfer portion transferred with a different glossiness from other portions to make a doll.
Disclosure of Invention
Such an electroformed shield as shown in the patent document JPS61-119291A may be deformed due to abrasion or the like after repeated use. Thus, a new shutter has to be prepared, or a plurality of shutters has to be prepared in advance for a large number of dolls to be manufactured. However, in the method of producing electroformed shields from an electroformed article, it may be difficult to control the thickness of the shields, or some steps such as cutting out the transfer portion may be performed manually, resulting in variations in shape and the like between the electroformed shields. Therefore, the painting quality of a character body such as a doll is unstable.

Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Fig. 1 is a diagram showing a character body 1 constituting a part of a toy character body 10. The figure body 1 mimics the head of a squirrel. The character body 1 may be combined with other parts including a trunk part, arm parts, foot parts, etc. to construct a toy character 10 (the overall shape of which is not shown). The character body 1 is covered with the flocked portion 3 throughout the entire outer circumference of a base body 2 to be described later or throughout the exposed portion of the toy character body 1. The flocked portion 3 has been flocked with hair. The character body 1 has coloring parts 111, 121, and 131 in portions near the head 11, nose 12, and mouth 13. The base 2 of the character body 1 (or the flocked base) is covered by the shutter molded article 7 (or the shutter molded article 6) including the shutter jigs 80 of the exposed portions 75 (715 and 725) and 712 (or the exposed portion 65), and is sprayed with a paint. Thereby, the coloring portions 111, 121, and 131 are colored.
Fig. 2 is an overall configuration diagram of components in the toy figure manufacturing system 4 according to the embodiment. The toy figure manufacturing system 4 includes a data preparing terminal 41, a matrix preparing machine 42, a scanner terminal 43 for controlling a 3D scanner 44, a 3D printer 45, a surface treating machine 46, and a flocking machine 47.
The data preparation terminal 41 has data preparation software 411 capable of preparing and editing 3D data (base data 2A and shutter molded article data 6A and 7A) of the base 2, shutter molded articles 6 and 7, and the like. Any CAD software may be used as the data preparation software 411. The base data 2A and the shutter molded article data 6A and 7A can be stored in a desired storage section within the data preparation terminal 41. The data preparation terminal 41 includes a processor and a memory storing data preparation software 411 having instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the data preparation terminal 41 to perform operations including preparing and/or editing 3D data.
The matrix preparation machine 42 is capable of preparing the matrix 2 based on the matrix data 2A prepared by the data preparation software 411 (or using molded articles prepared based on the matrix data 2A). The matrix preparation machine 42 according to the embodiment is a forming machine capable of resin forming such as slush molding or blow molding.
The scanner terminal 43 includes scanner software 431, and the scanner software 431 can control the 3D scanner 44 to edit the scan data 2B acquired by the 3D scanner 44. The scan data 2B may be stored in a desired storage section within the scanner terminal 43. Incidentally, the scanner software 431 may be constituted by a plurality of software having a function of individually controlling the 3D scanner 44 and a function of editing the scan data 2B. The scanner terminal 43 includes a processor and a memory storing scanner software 431 having instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the scanner terminal 43 to perform operations including controlling the 3D scanner 44.
The 3D printer 45 may be a metal 3D printer using stainless steel as a metal as a forming material. A powder bed system (powder bed fusion) such as a laser beam system (e.g., selective Laser Melting (SLM) or Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)) or an electron beam system (e-beam fusion) may be applied to the 3D printer 45. Alternatively, a metal deposition system (metal deposition) such as a laser beam system (e.g., laser Metal Deposition (LMD) or laser engineered net forming (LENS)) or an arc discharge system may be applied to the 3D printer 45. Examples of usable forming materials include iron, aluminum, titanium, copper, or an alloy having a part of them as a main component (for example, a stainless steel alloy having iron as a main component). The 3D printer 45 is capable of forming the shutter molded articles 6 and 7 based on the shutter molded article data 6A and 7A prepared by the data preparation terminal 41.
The surface treatment machine 46 coats (coats) the shutter molded articles 6 and 7 formed by the 3D printer 45 so as to be subjected to corrosion-preventing treatment or rust-preventing treatment. The coating may be performed by a desired method such as plating, PVD (physical vapor deposition), or CVD (chemical vapor deposition). The plating method may employ Electroplating (electro plating), electroless plating, anodic oxidation, or the like.
The flocking machine 47 is able to flock the outer surface (or inner surface of some shape) of the substrate 2 to implant short fibers formed of rayon, nylon, etc. and having substantially the same color as the substrate 2. The flocking in this embodiment is performed by electrostatic flocking in which short fibers having substantially the same color as the substrate 2 (e.g., light orange) are attached to the outer surface of the substrate 2 to stand up on the substrate.
Next, a toy figure manufacturing method according to an embodiment will be described. Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing steps in the toy figure manufacturing method (including the covering manufacturing method in steps S01 to S08). First, in step S01, the matrix data 2A of the character body 1 (i.e., the head of the toy character body 10) is prepared by the data preparing software 411 (see fig. 4A).
In step S02, the matrix preparation machine 42 prepares the matrix 2 of the character body 1 based on the matrix data 2A prepared by the data preparation software 411. The matrix preparation machine 42 according to the embodiment prepares the matrix 2 by resin molding. Thus, the prepared matrix 2 may shrink when the resin material cools down. Thus, the base 2 may be formed to be partially or entirely smaller than the external shape of the base data 2A, or deformed (for example, the angle of a protruding portion such as the ear 24 in the base 2 shown in fig. 4B may be different from the angle of the ear data 2A4 of the base data 2A). The position where the difference is generated between the matrix data 2A and the matrix 2 or the degree of the difference depends on the shape, size, thickness, material, etc. of the matrix 2 to be prepared.
In step S03, the scanner terminal 43 scans the solid shape of the base 2 with the 3D scanner 44 to acquire scan data 2B (3D data). The 3D scanning of the base body 2 is performed by CT scanning using X-rays, for example, as shown in fig. 4B, in which the outer periphery of the base body 2 is held by a cylindrical holding member 5, the holding member 5 being partially provided with a slit 51 to have a sectional shape like a C-ring. For the holding member 5, a material having a CT value different from that of the base 2 enough to distinguish it from the base 2 may be used. The scanner terminal 43 can acquire the external shape or the internal shape of the base 2 from the 3D scanner 44.
Fig. 5A is a diagram showing the scan data 2B of the base 2 acquired in step S03. The scan data 2B basically has the same size, the same external shape including irregularities, and the same internal shape as the base 2 prepared based on the base data 2A. Incidentally, as shown in fig. 5A, the scan data 2B may include noise 2B1. The noise 2B1 includes irregularities, surface cracks, chipping, or the like that do not appear on the base 2 but appear on the scan data 2B.
In step S04, the noise 2B1 of the scan data 2B is eliminated manually or automatically by using the scanner software 431. Since the noise 2B1 is eliminated, the scan data 2C having a shape closer to the base 2 than the base data 2A or the scan data 2B can be obtained (see fig. 5B).
In step S05, the shutter molded article data 6A and 7A are prepared by the data preparation software 411 using the scan data 2C (see respective exploded perspective views of fig. 7A, 7B, 8A, and 8B). First, the data preparing software 411 prepares the reverse data 67A (see fig. 6). The internal shape of the reverse data 67A has substantially the same shape (or the same surface) as the external shape of the scan data 2C that has been corrected, and the shutter thickness of the reverse data 67A is set to a predetermined value (for example, 1 mm). The reverse data 67A is set to completely cover the scan data 2C. Thereafter, the reverse data 67A is processed and shifted so that its internal shape is larger than the external shape of the scan data 2C by a flocked thickness T (see fig. 10A and the like) at which flocking will be performed in step S11 described later. For example, the reverse data 67A is expanded such that the interval between the inner surface of the reverse data 67A and the outer surface of the scan data 2C reaches about 0.8mm to 1.0mm. Incidentally, the flocking thickness T may be different from one portion to another portion of the substrate 2. The offset amount corresponding to the flocking thickness T may be set to a value considering the flocking thickness T. For example, the offset may correspond to an average or minimum value of the flock thickness T in the entire substrate 2.
In an embodiment, the coloring is performed in two different colors. Accordingly, the data preparing software 411 prepares the shutter molded article data 6A of the shutter molded article 6 (see fig. 10A) for the coloring portion 131, and prepares the shutter molded article data 7A of the shutter molded article 7 (see fig. 9 and 10B) for the coloring portions 111 and 121.
The shutter molded article data 6A is prepared such that the exposure portion data 61A1 representing the exposure portion 65 is disposed on the aforementioned reverse data 67A processed and offset by an amount corresponding to the flocked thickness T, and is disposed in an area corresponding to the vicinity of the mouth 23 (13) of the character body 1 (see fig. 1) as a portion to be colored. In addition, the shutter molded article data 6A is divided into divided shutter molded article data 61A and 62A representing a plurality of divided shutter molded articles 61 and 62, so that the shutter molded articles 6 can be detachably attached to the base 2 from different sides (front side and rear side in the embodiment) of the base 2. Opening data 6A3 indicating an opening 63 of the shutter molded article 6 corresponding to the opening 25 (see fig. 10A) provided in the lower surface of the base 2 is provided on the lower surface side of the shutter molded article data 6A. The opening data 6A3 is formed in a substantially circular shape, wherein the cutout data 61A3 indicating the semicircular cutout 613 is combined with the cutout data 62A3 indicating the semicircular cutout 623, as shown in fig. 7A and 7B. The exposure data 61A1 is arranged to represent an exposure 65, which exposure 65 is provided at a portion below the cheek and nose 22 (12) in the vicinity of the mouth 23 (13) of the squirrel. The shutter molded article data 6A (divided shutter molded article data 61A and 62A) thus prepared includes cover data 6A4 (61A 4 and 62A 4) and exposure data 61A1, the cover data 6A4 representing the cover 64 (614 and 624) capable of covering the base 2.
The shutter molded article data 7A is prepared in the same manner as the shutter molded article data 6A. That is, the shutter molded article data 7A is prepared such that the exposure portion data 7A1 and 71A2 representing the exposure portions 75 (715 and 725) and 712 are disposed on the reverse data 67A processed and offset by an amount corresponding to the flocked thickness T, and are disposed in regions corresponding to the head 21 (11) and the nose 22 (12) of the character body 1 (see fig. 1) as portions to be colored. In addition, the shutter molded article data 7A is divided into a plurality of divided shutter molded article data 71A and 72A so that the shutter molded article 7 can be detachably attached to the base 2 from different sides (front side and rear side in the embodiment) of the base 2. Opening data 7A3 indicating an opening 73 of the shutter molded article 7 corresponding to the opening 25 (see fig. 10B) provided in the lower surface of the base 2 is provided on the lower surface side of the shutter molded article data 7A in the same manner as the shutter molded article data 6A. The opening data 7A3 is formed to define a substantially circular shape, in which the cutout data 71A3 representing the semicircular cutout 713 is combined with the cutout data 72A3 representing the semicircular cutout 723, as shown in fig. 8A and 8B. The exposure portion data 7A1 includes cut-out portion data 71A1 and 72A1 contained in the divided shutter molded article data 71A and 72A, respectively, and the cut-out portion data 71A1 and 72A1 represent cut-out portions 715 and 725 formed in the respective matching surfaces of the shutter molded article 7 to be bonded to each other. When the divided shutter molded article data 71A and 72A are combined, the exposure portion data 7A1 represents the exposure portions 75 of the shutter molded article 7 arranged as openings. On the other hand, the exposure data 71A2 shows an exposure 712 as an opening having substantially the same shape as the nose 22 (12) of the squirrel. The shutter molded article data 7A (divided shutter molded article data 71A and 72A) thus prepared includes cover data 7A4 (71A 4 and 72A 4) and exposure data 7A1 (71A 1 and 72A 1) and 71A2, the cover data 7A4 representing the cover 74 (714 and 724) capable of covering the base body 2.
In step S06, the 3D printer 45 forms the shutter molded article 6 and the shutter molded article 7 based on the shutter molded article data 6A and the shutter molded article data 7A thus prepared. As shown in fig. 2, the shutter molded article 6 includes a divided shutter molded article 61 formed by dividing shutter molded article data 61A and a divided shutter molded article 62 formed by dividing shutter molded article data 62A. In the same manner, the shutter molded article 7 includes a divided shutter molded article 71 shaped by dividing the shutter molded article data 71A and a divided shutter molded article 72 shaped by dividing the shutter molded article data 72A.
In step S07, the surface processor 46 performs plating on the shutter molded article 6 and the shutter molded article 7. After that, in step S08, the shutter molded article 6 and the shutter molded article 7 are attached to the support member 8 to prepare the shutter jig 80.
The shutter jig 80 in fig. 9 shows an example in which the shutter molded articles 7 (divided shutter molded articles 71 and 72) have been attached to the support member 8. The support member 8 is formed in a clip-like shape of a large size. The support member 8 includes a first member 82 and a second member 83 rotatably connected by a shaft portion 81 on the center side. The first member 82 and the second member 83 are provided like a long rod. The first member 82 and the second member 83 have grip portions 821 and 831 on one end side with respect to the shaft portion 81. The grip portions 821 and 831 have attachment portions 822 and 832 on the other end side opposite to the grip portions 821 and 831. The split shield molding 71 is attached to the tip side of the attachment portion 822 by welding. On the other hand, the split shroud molded article 72 is attached to the tip side of the attachment portion 832 by welding. The split shield molding 71 and the split shield molding 72 are welded with the first member 82 and the second member 83 in their lower portions. Accordingly, the first member 82 and the second member 83 are disposed below the split shutter molded article 71 and the split shutter molded article 72.
In addition, fig. 9 shows a shutter clamp 80 with which painting can be performed around the head 21 (11) and nose 22 (12). However, in the embodiment, it is possible to prepare the shutter jig 80 used for coating around the mouth 23 (13) while the split shutter molded articles 61 replacing the split shutter molded articles 71 and the split shutter molded articles 62 replacing the split shutter molded articles 72 are attached to the support member 8. The shutter jig 80 provided with the split shutter molded article 61 and the split shutter molded article 62 is opened at a lower portion of the split shutter molded article 61. Accordingly, the first member 82 and the second member 83 are provided to be welded with the upper portions of the split shield molded articles 61 and the split shield molded articles 62 (see fig. 10A).
In addition, the first and second members 82 and 83 are pushed by an elastic member, not shown, to separate the grip portions 821 and 831 from each other and to bring the attachment portions 822 and 832 close to each other. When a user grasping the grasping portions 821 and 831 manipulates the grasping portions so as to approach each other, the split shutter molded articles 71 and 72 can be separated from each other against the elastic force of the elastic member to secure the interval between the split shutter molded articles 71 and 72 so that the base 2 can be inserted into the interval.
In step S09, the matrix preparation machine 42 prepares the matrix 2 or other matrix 2 for manufacturing the character body 1 based on the matrix data 2A prepared in step S01. That is, the matrix data 2A is also used as mass production data of the character body 1 constituting the toy character body 10 (e.g., doll).
In step S10, the base 2 prepared in step S09 is coated by using the shutter jig 80. First, as shown in fig. 10A, a shutter jig 80 to which the shutter molded article 6 has been attached is attached to the base body 2. For a specific operation, a user grasping the grasping portions 821 and 831 (see fig. 9) of the shutter clamp 80 places the base 2 between the split shutter molded article 61 and the split shutter molded article 62. In this case, the base 2 is supported by, for example, a supporting jig appropriately inserted into the opening 25 of the base 2 through the openings 63 (613 and 623) of the shutter molded article 6 (or the openings 73 (713 and 723) of the shutter molded article 7 in fig. 10B). When the grip portions 821 and 831 are subsequently released from the gripping operation in a state in which the base 2 has been placed between the split shutter molded article 61 and the split shutter molded article 62, the edge portions 611 and 621 (or the edge portions 711 and 721 in the split shutter molded article 71 and the split shutter molded article 72 in fig. 10B) of the split shutter molded article 61 and the split shutter molded article 62 that are opposed to each other come close to and are bonded to each other due to the elastic force of the elastic member so as to be in contact with each other (see fig. 10A). Thereby, the shutter molded article 6 (or the shutter molded article 7) can be easily attached to the base 2.
The shutter molded article 6 is constituted of a plurality of split shutter molded articles, that is, a split shutter molded article 61 and a split shutter molded article 62, which can be attached to the base 2 from a plurality of directions (the front-rear direction of the base 2 in the embodiment). In addition, the shutter molded article 6 is provided along the outer surface of the base 2. As a result, the portion of the base 2 corresponding to the covering portion 64 (614 and 624) of the shutter molded article 6 is covered, and the other portion of the base 2 corresponding to the exposed portion 65 is exposed. Accordingly, when the paint is sprayed on the base 2 in the state of fig. 10A, the paint is applied in the vicinity of the mouth 23 (including a part of the nose 22) provided with the exposed portion 65. The paint to be applied near the mouth 23 has been colored in a lighter color than the base color of the substrate 2. The base color of the substrate 2 in the examples is light orange. The coloring portion 131 around the mouth 23 is colored in a cream color lighter than the ground color.
Next, as shown in fig. 10B, the shutter jig 80 to which the shutter molded articles 7 (divided shutter molded articles 71 and 72) have been attached is attached to the base body 2. The shutter molded article 7 is constituted of a plurality of split shutter molded articles, that is, a split shutter molded article 71 and a split shutter molded article 72, which can be attached to the base 2 from a plurality of directions (the front-rear direction of the base 2 in the embodiment). The shutter moulding 7 is arranged along the outer surface of the base body 2. As a result, the portions of the base 2 corresponding to the covering portions 74 (714 and 724) of the shutter molded article 7 are covered, and the other portions of the base 2 corresponding to the exposed portions 75 (715 and 725) are exposed. Accordingly, when the paint is sprayed on the base 2 in the state of fig. 10B, the paint is applied to the head 21 and the nose 22 provided with the exposed portions 75 (715 and 725). The paint to be applied to the head 21 and nose 22 has been coloured in a darker colour than the base colour of the substrate 2. In an embodiment, the coating has been colored to a darker brown than the base color of the substrate 2 and the colored portion 131. In addition, a part of the nose portion 22 is colored so as to overlap the colored portion that has been painted by using the shutter molded article 6. In this way, the substrate 2 is painted in a lighter color and then in a darker color. After that, the grip portions 821 and 831 are operated so that the split shield molded article 71 and the split shield molded article 72 are separated from each other, and the base 2 is taken out.
In step S11, the flocking machine 47 flocks the substrate 2 that has been colored in step S10. Thus, the surface of the base body 2 is covered with the flocked portion 3 of the staple fibers. The flocked substrate including the substrate 2 and the flocked portion 3 shown by the two-dot chain line in fig. 10A (or fig. 10B) is designed to be slightly larger than the substrate 2 by the flocked thickness T.
In step S12, the flocked substrate that has undergone flocking in step S11 is painted in the same color at the same location as in step S10. That is, in the same manner as the base body 2 in fig. 10A, the shutter clamp 80 to which the shutter molded article 6 (divided shutter molded articles 61 and 62) has been attached is attached to the flocked base body including the base body 2 and the flocked portion 3. The inner surface of the shutter moulding 6 is arranged closer to or in closer contact with the flocked substrate than would be the case if the substrate 2 were arranged therein.
