Description

Transparent decorative molded article

Technical Field

The utility model relates to a light-transmitting decorative molding.

Background

Generally, decorations such as patterns or letters formed on the surface of the housing of the object are mainly formed through a spraying (spraying) or printing (printing) process so as to present a specific visual effect, thereby adding variability in the appearance of the object. The conventional method of forming the case is to apply a hardened layer on the surface of the case by spraying after the case of the related product is completed, which is complicated in process, poor in yield, and causes pollution of organic solvent gas, thereby causing many pollution problems. On the other hand, the spray coating process is not suitable for mass production because it has disadvantages of time consumption, complicated process, low thickness uniformity, etc.

In order to solve the above problems, various specific Decoration processes using a Decoration film have been proposed, such as In-Mold Decoration (IMD) or Out-of-film Decoration (OMD) have been another option for forming surface patterns of objects.

The materials of the polymer substrate commonly used in the in-mold decoration technology at present include Polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (also called poly (acrylic), PMMA), Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), and Acrylonitrile-Butadiene-Styrene (ABS). However, since the hardness of the substrate composed of PC and ABS is low and the surface of the substrate is easily damaged, the hardness and scratch resistance of the surface of the substrate are often increased by coating a protective layer. On the other hand, the base material made of PMMA has high hardness, but is easily cracked at the time of molding, and thus is not easily subjected to the hot press process.

In order to solve the above problems, various specific Decoration processes using a Decoration film have been proposed, such as In-Mold Decoration (IMD) or Out-of-film Decoration (OMD), as another option for forming patterns on the surface of an object.

In particular, in-mold decoration (IMD) techniques may include: In-Mold Labeling (IML), In-Mold Film (IMF or INS), and In-Mold transfer (IMR) as shown In Table 1 below. The in-mold labeling (IML) process features that the surface is one layer of hardened transparent film, the middle layer is printed pattern layer and the back layer is plastic layer. The ink is sandwiched between the hardened transparent film and the plastic layer, so that the product has no surface scratching, high friction resistance, bright color and less fading. The in-mold transfer printing (IMR) process is to print a pattern on a film, attach a membrane to a plastic mold cavity through a film feeding machine and perform injection molding, separate an ink layer with the pattern from the film after the injection molding, and leave the ink layer on the plastic part to obtain the plastic part with the decorative pattern on the surface. Therefore, the surface of the final product of the in-mold transfer printing is not provided with a transparent protective film, and the membrane is only a carrier in the production process. That is, the biggest difference between in-mold labeling (IML) and in-mold transfer (IMR) is whether a transparent protective film is present on the surface of the product. In addition, the in-mold film (IMF) is similar to the in-mold label (IML).

TABLE 1

The outside film decoration technique (OMD), also known as high pressure transfer. After the patterns are printed on the transparent film, the patterns are directly transferred to the plastic shell by adopting high/medium/low pressure and vacuum transfer printing, and the plastic shell is mainly characterized in that the plastic shell is a product with touch and is applied to 3C, household appliances and automobiles.

However, no matter the IMD or the OMD film is used, if a transparent decoration product is to be manufactured, the transparent decoration product is manufactured in a printing and stacking manner, and the client side has the disadvantages of difficult alignment, excessive material loss, cost increase and the like after the processes of plastic suction, cutting and injection molding, and the subsequent laser engraving process is difficult and cannot manufacture the transparent pattern and other products.

Table 2 below shows the characteristics and disadvantages of various prior art decoration techniques.

The same or similar element numbers refer to the same or similar elements, and the description thereof will not be repeated in the following paragraphs.

Fig. 1 is a schematic flow chart of a method for manufacturing a decorated molded article according to a first embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a decorated article according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a first embodiment of the utility model provides a method S10 for manufacturing a decorated molded article 10 as follows. Step S100 is performed to form a composite layer structure 110 (shown in fig. 2). Specifically, forming the composite layer structure 110 includes: step S102 is performed to form a first coating material on the substrate 102 (shown in fig. 2) by a coating method or a printing method. In one embodiment, the material of the substrate 102 includes Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Polycarbonate (PC), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), or a combination thereof, and the forming method thereof includes an extrusion molding method, and the like. For example, an extrusion molding method may be used to heat melt, extrude, and cool the ABS solid plastic to form the ABS substrate 102. In addition, the ABS solid plastic, color master batch, pigment, pearl powder and related addition additives can be mixed to form a mixture. And then, extruding the mixture by using an extrusion molding method to form another ABS substrate, so that the ABS substrate has visual effects of color, pearlescence, bright surface, mirror surface, extinction matte surface and the like.

Specifically, the coating method is to distribute the coating material in a coating apparatus and uniformly coat the coating material on the substrate 102 through a coating head of the coating apparatus. In one embodiment, the opening of the coating head may be flat to provide a bright finish to the coating applied to the substrate 102. In another embodiment, the opening of the coating head may have a plurality of microstructures (e.g., dimples) to provide a matte effect to the coating applied to the substrate 102. In an alternative embodiment, the opening of the coating head may have a plurality of protrusions and recesses to provide hairline effect to the coating applied on the substrate 102. On the other hand, the printing method may include a suitable printing method such as a gravure printing (gravure printing) method, a screen printing (screen printing) method, a offset printing (offset printing) method, a reverse printing (reverse printing) method, or an inkjet printing method. The printing method can form a thinner film layer than the coating method.

In one embodiment, the first coating includes at least: the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material are uniformly mixed together. The protective material may include Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), Aliphatic Urethane acrylate (Aliphatic Urethane acrylate), Epoxy Acrylate (EA), polyester polyol (polyester polyol), or a combination thereof; the ink material may include Polyurethane (PU) and the like; and the conformable material may comprise Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU), Aromatic Urethane acrylate (Aromatic Urethane Diacrylate), or a combination thereof. In addition, the first dope further includes: a heat resistant material, a solvent, and a hardener. In one embodiment, the heat resistant material may comprise Polycarbonate (PC) or the like; the solvent may include ethyl acetate, butanone, toluene, xylene, or a combination thereof; and the hardener may include polyisocyanate (Aromatic Urethane Diacrylate) and the like. However, the utility model is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the first coating may further include other additives, such as matting powder, pearl powder, etc., so that the subsequently formed first decoration layer 104 (as shown in fig. 2) has different visual effects such as matting, pearling, etc.

Next, in step S104, a second paint is formed on the first paint by a coating method or a printing method. In one embodiment, the second coating comprises at least: the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material are uniformly mixed together. In addition, the coating method, the printing method, the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material have been described in detail in the above paragraphs, and are not described in detail herein. It is noted that the first paint is used to form the first decoration layer 104, and the second paint is used to form the second decoration layer 106, as shown in fig. 2. In this embodiment, the first coating and the second coating have different compositions to achieve different visual effects. In another embodiment, the

decoration layer

104 or 106 can be formed by evaporation or sputtering to achieve a metallized decoration effect. For example, the first decorative layer 104 formed by the first paint may be a wood grain layer, and the second decorative layer 106 formed by the second paint may have a matte silver color, so that the composite layer structure 110 exhibits a matte silver wood grain pattern.

Then, step S106 is performed to form a third paint on the second paint by a coating method or a printing method. In one embodiment, the third coating comprises at least: the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material are uniformly mixed together. In addition, the coating method, the printing method, the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material have been described in detail in the above paragraphs, and are not described in detail herein. It is noted that the third coating is used to form the optical hardening layer 108. In this embodiment, the content of the protective material in the third paint may be higher than the content of the protective material in the first paint or the second paint.

Thereafter, step S108 is performed to perform a first curing step to form a composite layer structure 110. As shown in fig. 2, the composite layer structure 110 includes a first decoration layer 104, a second decoration layer 106, and an optically hardened layer 108. First decorative layer 104 may be disposed on first surface 102a of substrate 102. Second trim layer 106 may be disposed on first trim layer 104. The optical hardening layer 108 may be disposed on the second decoration layer 106 such that the second decoration layer 106 is disposed between the first surface 102a of the substrate 102 and the optical hardening layer 108. Although only two

decorative layers

104, 106 are shown in fig. 2, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the composite layer structure 110 may have multiple (e.g., three, four or more) stacked decorative layers.

In an embodiment, the first curing step may include a thermal curing step, an Ultraviolet (UV) curing step, a combination thereof, or other suitable curing step. The first curing step can cause the bonding material to undergo a cross-linking reaction and bond to the substrate 102. In this embodiment, the coating can be regarded as an all-in-one coating, which can make the cured composite layer structure 110 have the protection effect, the color effect and the adhesion effect at the same time. In this case, the composite layer structure 110 may also be referred to as an all-in-one composite layer structure. Compared with the steps of purchasing a protective layer and forming the adhesive film structure through printing and laminating processes in the prior art, the method can effectively simplify the manufacturing steps, reduce the manufacturing cost and prevent the pollution problem caused by the adhesive film.

After the composite layer structure 110 is formed, a step S120 is performed to perform a vacuum forming process to form a formed film 100A. In one embodiment, the blister process comprises: heating the composite layer structure 110 and the substrate 102 to soften the composite layer structure 110 and the substrate 102; placing the softened composite layer structure 110 and the substrate 102 into a mold and pressurizing to form the softened composite layer structure 110 and the substrate 102 into a desired shape; carrying out a cooling step; and cutting the excess portion to form a formed film 100A.

Next, step S130 is performed to perform an in-mold decoration technique or an out-mold decoration technique, so that the formed film 100A is attached to the outer surface 200A of the workpiece 200 to form the decorated formed article 10, as shown in fig. 2. In one embodiment, the substrate 102 has a first surface 102a and a second surface 102b opposite to each other. As shown in fig. 2, the second surface 102b of the substrate 102 contacts the outer surface 200a of the workpiece 200, the first surface 102a of the substrate 102 contacts the first decorative layer 104, and the top surface 110a of the composite layer structure 110 is exposed upward. In this embodiment, the top surface 110A of the composite layer structure 110 may be a visual surface, so that the consumer can see the visual effect of the formed film 100A from the top surface 110A of the composite layer structure 110.

FIG. 9 is a flow chart of an in-mold decoration technique according to an embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 10 is a flow chart illustrating an exterior mold decoration technique according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 9, a process flow S200 of the in-mold decoration technique is as follows. First, step S202 is performed to provide a molded film. The formed film may be, for example, formed film 100A. The composition of the formed film 100A is described in the above paragraphs, and thus is not described in detail.

Next, in step S204, the molded film 100A is placed in an in-mold decoration mold. In detail, the in-mold decoration mold includes a hollow mold cavity. The mold cavity has a surface. Then, the molding film 100A is attached to the surface of the cavity such that the molding film 100A covers at least a portion of the surface of the cavity. In an alternative embodiment, before performing step S206, heat pre-forming and removing the excess film by using knife cutting, laser cutting or water jet cutting may be performed optionally.

Then, step S206 is performed to fill the molding material into the cavity of the in-mold decoration mold, so that the molding material and the molding film 100A are combined with each other. In one embodiment, the molding material may be, for example, a plastic material, a resin material, a metal material, a carbon fiber material, glass, or other suitable molding material.

Thereafter, step S208 is performed to cool the molding material to form the workpiece 200. The workpiece 200 is an application of the decorated article depending on the utility model, and may be an electronic device housing or component, a vehicle housing or component, or a combination thereof. For example, the workpiece 200 may be a housing or a component used in a mobile phone, a digital camera, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a notebook computer, a desktop computer, a touch panel, a television, a satellite positioning system (GPS) device, a car monitor, a navigation device, a display, a digital photo frame, a DVD player, a car interior trim panel (e.g., a handle, a trim strip, a touch front, etc.), a car exterior trim panel (e.g., an exterior handle, a back door trim strip, etc.), a car dashboard, a car logo, an intelligent key (I-key), an engine start button, a clock, a radio, a toy, a watch, or other electronic products requiring electric power. However, the present invention is not limited to the shape and structure of the workpiece 200, and any shape and structure of the workpiece 200 that can be finished by the in-mold decoration technique is within the scope of the present invention.

Next, step S210 is performed to take out the decorated molded article 10 from the in-mold decoration mold. The obtained decorated molded article 10 is described in detail in fig. 2, and is not described herein again.

On the other hand, the decorated article 10 may be manufactured by an outside mold decoration technique. Referring to fig. 10, the process flow S200 of the mold exterior decoration technique is as follows. First, step S302 is performed to provide the workpiece 200. In one embodiment, the workpiece 200 is an application of a decorated article according to the present invention, which may be an electronic device housing or component, a vehicle housing or component, or a combination thereof. In alternative embodiments, the material of the outer surface 200a of the workpiece 200 may be plastic, resin, metal, carbon fiber, glass, or other various formed housing materials, and may be subjected to appropriate pre-processing processes to produce a workpiece having desired characteristics, for example. For example, when the workpiece is made of plastic, the plastic workpiece (such as a plastic housing) can be obtained by an injection molding process using an injection molding mold; alternatively, when the workpiece is made of metal, the metal may be first surface-treated to obtain a metal workpiece (e.g., a metal housing).

Then, step S304 is performed to provide a molded film. The formed film may be, for example, the formed film 100A shown in FIG. 2 and described above. The composition of the formed film 100A is described in the above paragraphs, and thus is not described in detail.

Then, step S306 is performed to place the workpiece 200 and the formed film 100A in the fixture. It is noted that before performing step S306, a jig may be optionally designed according to the requirement of the final product and the jig is prepared.

Then, step S308 is performed to perform a high-pressure decoration molding process so as to attach the molded film 100A to the outer surface 200A of the workpiece 200. Specifically, the high-pressure decoration forming process is, for example, a heating softening step of the formed film 100A. In one embodiment, the temperature of the heat softening step may be between 80 ℃ and 150 ℃; the time for the heat softening step may be between 30 seconds and 180 seconds. Next, the molding film 100A is brought into contact with the workpiece 200, and a pressing step is performed. Then, the formed film 100A is subjected to a high-pressure vacuum forming step to attach the formed film 100A to the workpiece 200. Finally, the remaining composite layer structure can be selectively removed by die cutting, laser cutting or water jet cutting. In short, the present embodiment can closely adhere the formed film 100A to a portion of the outer surface 200A of the workpiece 200 by the mold decoration technique.

Referring back to fig. 1, after the decorative molded article 10 is formed, a second curing step is performed to increase the hardness of the composite layer structure 110 in step S140. In an embodiment, the second curing step may include a thermal curing step, an Ultraviolet (UV) curing step, a combination thereof, or other suitable curing step. In this embodiment, the first curing step is different from the second curing step. For example, the first curing step may be a thermal curing step, and the second curing step may be a UV curing step; the reverse is true. In an alternative embodiment, when both the first curing step and the second curing step are thermal curing steps, the curing temperature of the second curing step may be higher than the curing temperature of the first curing step. It is noted that the second curing step can perform a cross-linking reaction on the protective material to increase the hardness of the top surface 108a of the optical hardening layer 108, thereby enhancing the protection effect. That is, when the in-mold decoration technique or the out-mold decoration technique (i.e., step S130) is performed, the optically cured layer 108 is still not completely cured and has ductility, and is completely attached to the outer surface 200a of the workpiece 200. After the second curing step (i.e., step S140), the optical hardening layer 108 is completely cured and has a complete protection effect. In the present embodiment, the hardness of the optically hardened layer 108 may have a gradient change. Specifically, the hardness of the optically hardened layer 108 may increase from the bottom surface 108b toward the top surface 108 a. That is, the hardness of the top surface 108a of the optically hardened layer 108 may be greater than the hardness of the bottom surface 108b of the optically hardened layer 108. In addition, the second curing step may also increase the hardness of the first decoration layer 104 and the second decoration layer 106 to facilitate the subsequent laser engraving process (i.e., step S150).

Then, step S150 is performed, and a laser engraving process is performed to form the groove 105 in the composite layer structure 110. As shown in fig. 2, recess 105 may extend downwardly from top surface 110a of composite layer structure 110 until top surface 104t of first decorative layer 104 is exposed. However, the utility model is not limited thereto, and in other embodiments, the grooves 105 may have different depths. That is, bottom surface 105bt of recess 105 may be higher or lower than top surface 104t of first decorative layer 104, or bottom surface 105bt of recess 105 may be higher, equal or lower than top surface 106t of second decorative layer 106. Furthermore, although fig. 2 only shows a single groove 105, the present invention is not limited thereto, and in alternative embodiments, the decorative molding 10 may have a plurality of grooves to form various laser engraved patterns, so as to increase the visual perception of consumers.

Referring to fig. 2, the decorative molding 10 can be disposed on the light source 300 to emit light of different colors through the groove 105. For example, light source 300 may be blue light and first decorative layer 104 may be a wood layer. When the light source 300 is not turned on, the consumer can see the laser engraved pattern having the wood grain effect through the groove 105 from the viewing surface 110 a. On the other hand, when the light source 300 is turned on, the consumer can see the laser engraved pattern having the blue wood grain effect through the groove 105 from the viewing surface 110 a. In one embodiment, the light source 300 may include an LED point light source, an LED light bar, a mini LED, and the like.

In the prior art, multiple spraying steps and multiple laser engraving steps are required to form a multicolor film. The disadvantages of this technique are: the process is complicated, the processing is not easy, the cost is high and the environmental pollution degree is high. In addition, in the existing decoration process (such as IMD or OMD), a multicolor film is usually formed by stencil printing. However, after the client is subjected to the processes of plastic-sucking molding, cutting, injection molding, etc., the technique has the disadvantages of difficult alignment, low yield, excessive material consumption, high cost, etc. In addition, because the IMD film or the OMD film is thinner, the laser engraving process is not favorable. That is, even if the post-laser engraving treatment is performed, the laser engraved film is peeled off or damaged due to poor surface properties, and thus an additional protective coating needs to be formed to protect the film, which leads to an increase in cost.

In order to solve the above problems, in the embodiments of the present invention, an all-in-one coating is formed on a substrate and a curing process is performed, so as to form a composite layer structure having a protective effect, a color effect, and a bonding effect. The composite layer structure can form a formed film with better physical properties (such as higher hardness, better protection effect and the like) after a plastic suction forming process. Therefore, the formed film of the present embodiment can be applied to a laser engraving process to form various light-transmissive decorative products.

Fig. 3 is a schematic flow chart of a method for manufacturing a decorated article according to a second embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a decorative molded article according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, a second embodiment of the utility model provides a method S20 for manufacturing a decorated molded article 20 as follows. Step S100 is performed to form a composite layer structure 120 (shown in fig. 4). Specifically, forming the composite layer structure 120 includes: step S102 is performed to form a first coating material on the substrate 102 (as shown in fig. 4) by a coating method or a printing method. Next, in step S104, a second paint is formed on the first paint by a coating method or a printing method. Then, step S107 is performed to form a fourth paint on the second paint by a coating method or a printing method. In one embodiment, the fourth dope includes at least: the protective material, the ink material and the bonding material are uniformly mixed together.
