Definitions
- the present invention relates to a masking arrangement and masking methods adapted to protect a hole in an article from a surface treatment.
- a masking member (103) consisting a vessel type inserting part (103)A and a flange (103)B extending from the upper edge of said inserting part (103)A has been provided to protect a hole (102) in an article (101).
- Said masking member (103) is attached onto said hole (102) by applying it to a boss (102)A surrounding said hole (102).
- said masking member (103) is made of a thermo-plastic material
- said masking member (103) may contract by said heating since said masking member has residual strain when said masking member is molded and falls into said hole (102) as shown in Fig. 4.
- said hole (102) cannot be completely protected by said masking member (103) during said surface treatment process.
- an object of the present invention is to provide improved masking protection for a hole if an article from a surface treatment, and reduce the chance of contraction of a masking member into said hole of said article.
- a masking arrangement comprising, in an article to be surface heated, a hole with a boss round it, and a masking member consisting of a member having a groove near its edge wherein said masking member is attached by said boss round said hole being received in said groove of said masking member.
- This invention also provides a method of masking a hole and a boss which is around it which are provided in an article to be surface treated by attaching to the boss a member having a groove near its edge, in which the boss is received.
- the invention provides a method of surface treating an article having a hole and a boss which is around it which are to be masked from the surface treatment, including the steps of attaching to the boss a member having a groove near its edge, in which the boss is received, performing the surface treatment and removing the member.
- the invention provides the use of a member for the purpose of masking a hole, which is in an article, and a boss which is around the hole, during surface treatment of the article, the member having a groove near its edge in which in use the boss is received.
- Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 relate to an embodiment of the present invention
- Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 relate to the prior art.
- a plate type masking member consists of a vessel type inserting part (113)A, a groove (113)B surrounding said inserting part (113)A, and a flange (113)C extending from the outside of said groove (113)B.
- Said masking member (113) may be produced by the vacuum forming or press molding of a plastic sheet such as a polystyrene sheet, polyethylene sheet, polypropylene sheet, polyurethane sheet, or the like, a foamed plastic sheet, such as a foamed polystyrene sheet, foamed polyethylene sheet, foamed polypropylene sheet, foamed polyurethane sheet, or the like, a laminated sheet consisting of a plural number of sheets selected from said plastic sheets and foamed plastic sheets.
- a plastic sheet such as a polystyrene sheet, polyethylene sheet, polypropylene sheet, polyurethane sheet, or the like
- a foamed plastic sheet such as a foamed polystyrene sheet, foamed polyethylene sheet, foamed polypropylene sheet, foamed polyurethane sheet, or the like
- a laminated sheet consisting of a plural number of sheets selected from said plastic sheets and foamed plastic sheets.
- said masking member (113) may be produced by expansion molding using expandable beads such as expandable polystyrene beads, expandable polyethylene beads, expandable polypropylene beads, or the like, or by injection molding using plastic pellets such as polystyrene pellets, polyethylene pellets, polypropylene pellets or the like.
- An inorganic filler such as calcium carbonate, talc, bentonite, fly ash, blast furnace slag or the like may be mixed in said plastics as a material of said masking member (113). When said inorganic filler is mixed in said plastics, the mechanical strength of said masking member (113) may be improved and the plastic needed for said masking member (113) may be reduced.
- the heat of combustion from said burnt masking member may be reduced since said inorganic filler in said masking member is incombustible. Therefore, the life of the incinerator may be prolonged.
- Preferable plastic as the material for the masking member (113) may be a polyolefin such as polyethylene, polypropylene or the like since said polyolefin has solvent resistance.
- Said masking member (113) is attached onto said hole (112) by inserting said boss (112)A of said hole (112) into said groove (113)B of said masking member (113) before a surface treatment.
- the surface treatment can be performed.
- the hole and boss are not subject to the surface treatment.
- the masking member can be removed, e.g. by being pulled off, manually or by a robot, or can be destroyed by heating in situ . This leaves the hole and boss unaffected by the surface treatment.
- This invention is particularly useful for protecting parts of the surfaces of substantial manufactured articles such as car or other automobile bodies.
