Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a decoration to be attached to a sheet of material such as leather, artificial leather, fabric or the like.
  • the invention concerns a decoration comprising a plurality of elements that, once the decoration has been attached to said material, are separated from one another and arranged according to a given predetermined configuration.
  • the invention also concerns a method and a device for attaching said decoration.
  • Decorations made of metal or plastic to be attached to articles made of fabric, leather or the like, consisting of a plurality of alphanumerical characters, symbols, logos or the like, arranged according to a given spatial configuration are widely used, especially in the clothing and accessory sector.
  • connection elements such as tabs or bars, or by a frame, integral with the elements of the decoration.
  • EP 2151169 A1 describes, specifically for fabrics, a decoration of this kind comprising a first string of alphanumerical characters, or symbols, joined in a rigid body by first connection means and a second string of support elements joined in a rigid body by second connection means.
  • Said connection means have the shape of a bar, which is joined to the outer surface of the alphanumerical characters or of the respective supporting elements by means of thin tabs.
  • connection means of the first string and of the second string are removed after the decoration has been attached to the fabric, or after the two strings are mutually coupled with interposing of said fabric.
  • the tabs are snapped to release the various alphanumerical characters and the supporting elements from the bars.
  • the joining area between the tabs of the first connection means and the alphanumerical characters is located on the outer surface, i.e., which remains exposed, of the latter. Therefore, once the tabs have been snapped, the break section remains exposed and, although of limited size, it is still an unwanted imperfection in the decoration. Moreover, as the breaking operation is typically performed by hand, it does not ensure that the break will always occur perfectly against the surface of the characters, at times leaving a small portion of tab attached to the finished decoration.
  • the decoration is made of coated metal, for example plated metal
  • the absence of coating in the break area can lead to more rapid deterioration as a result of the aggressive action of washing or treatment products, or even of atmospheric agents alone.
  • EP 3162954 A1 describes a decoration and a method and a related machine for attaching it to an element in sheet form that partially overcome the problems of EP 2151169 A1 .
  • the machine described in EP 3162954 A1 is configured to separate the connection means, bars or frames, from the decorative elements directly during their coupling with the sheet of material.
  • the connection elements are fastened by means of peduncles to the outer or lateral surfaces of the decorative elements, with the negative effects described above.
  • WO 2014/013997 A1 also describes a decoration similar to those cited above, in which fastening of the connection elements to the decorative elements is obtained by means of tabs whose break point is located on the outer or lateral, in any case exposed, surface of said decorative elements.
  • EP 2276015 B2 proposes a decoration composed of a plate comprising a plurality of elements of the type with alphanumerical characters, symbols or the like, and a fastening counter-plate.
  • the connection means that rigidly join the elements of the plate consist of bars arranged, in this case, at the end of the fastening pins with which the elements of the string are fastened to the counter-plate.
  • the plate is clamped between two suitably shaped jaws, so as to engage the fastening pins and block the elements in their original position, and subsequently to remove, again by breaking, the connecting bars of said pins before coupling the plate and the counter-plate with the material interposed.
  • an object of the present invention is to propose a decoration for a sheet of material such as leather, fabrics or the like, a method for attaching it to said material and a related device, which overcome the problems of the aforesaid known solutions.
  • an object of the present invention is to provide a decoration that is quicker and simpler to attach.
  • An object of the present invention is therefore to implement a method that allows said decoration to be attached rapidly, without changing its aesthetic appearance, and a related device with a simpler, and therefore more inexpensive, structure.
  • rear surface means the surface of the decorative element that remains facing and/or in contact with the surface of the sheet of material once the decoration is attached or which in any case is no longer visible once it has been attached to the sheet of material.
  • connection means in the method of attaching the aforesaid decoration, separation of the connection means from the decorative elements occurs automatically during the step of coupling the latter with a fastening counter-plate.
  • breaking of the joining points of the connection means is carried out directly by means of the pressing device used to couple the decorative elements with the counter-plate.
  • this separation takes place simultaneously or subsequently to the start of mutual penetration of the fastening pins in the sheet of material, but before they have been completely clamped between the decorative elements and the counter-plate.
  • connection means ensure that the correct original arrangement of the decorative elements remains until at least a first portion of the pins has penetrated the material. Subsequently, as with this coupling of the pins with the sheet of material the arrangement of the decorative elements is permanent and stable, the latter can be released from the connection means to free the rear surface and allow complete adhesion against said sheet of material.
  • the present invention relates to a decoration for a sheet of material such as leather, artificial leather, fabrics or the like, of the type applicable with a pressing device, comprising:
  • said tabs are fastened to the rear surface of the decorative elements and are sized to have a section that facilitates breaking at their rear surface.
  • bar means a rigid element typically, but not necessarily, rectilinear in shape.
  • the bar can in fact have different shapes, such as curved, semi-circular, broken line or mixed.
  • connection means can also comprise more than one bar, preferably at least two or more.
  • the decoration when it comprises a series of alphanumerical characters aligned to form an inscription, it comprises two bars arranged respectively on opposite sides with respect to a main direction of development of the decoration. Said bars can optionally be connected to one another to form a sort of frame.
  • said bar has an abutment surface adapted to coact with an element of the pressing device to cause breaking of the tabs in the section that facilitates breaking.
  • the connection means are structured so as to allow breaking of the tabs by exerting a thrust on the bar in a substantially vertical direction, i.e., substantially perpendicular to the rear face.
  • said abutment face is located at a height, or at a level, between the rear surface of the decorative elements and free end of the fastening pins.
  • the pressing element that carries the fastening counter-plate first presses the sheet of material against the end of the fastening pins causing them to penetrate partially and, subsequently or simultaneously, exerts on the abutment face of the bar a pressure that causes the tabs to yield in the area of the rear face of the decorative elements.
  • the tabs have a section that narrows from the bar toward the decorative element. In this way, breaking occurs at the weakest section, i.e., the section of smallest size, and at which the greatest bending moment occurs, which is at the level of the rear surface of the decorative elements.
  • the decoration as a whole, is completed by a fastening counter-plate provided with openings adapted to accommodate, and to block through friction, the fastening pins of the decorative elements.
  • the present invention also concerns the method for attaching an aforesaid decoration to the sheet of material.
  • the method comprises at least the steps of:
  • connection elements takes place during pressing and coupling of the decorative elements and of the fastening counter-plate.
  • Partial penetration of the pins in the material simultaneously or prior to breaking of the connection means ensures that the various decorative elements maintain their predetermined position until complete clamping of decorative elements and fastening counter-plate.
  • a substantially vertical thrust is applied to the bar, i.e., substantially perpendicular to the rear surface of the decorative elements.
  • said breaking is preferably implemented by the second element of the pressing device that bears the fastening counter-plate.
  • the sheet of material is arranged with the top side facing the decoration.
  • top side means the "good" side of the material, i.e. the side with the higher or aesthetically more pleasing finish that generally remains exposed in the article made with said material.
  • a protective plate is arranged between it and the decoration.
  • Said protective plate can, for example, comprise an outer frame that delimits an opening arranged superimposed on and aligned with the decorative elements of the decoration. Instead, said frame is at least partially superimposed on the bar, or bars, of the temporary connection means.
  • the present invention also relates to a pressing device configured to apply the aforesaid decoration.
  • Said device comprises:
  • the second pressing element comprises at least one contact surface adapted to coact with the temporary connection means to snap the tabs at the rear surface of the decorative elements.
  • said abutment surface is shaped so as to exert a thrust on the bar of the temporary connection means.
  • the shape of the decoration and in particular of the temporary connection means, is known, it is possible to determine the shape of the abutment surface that ensures contact with the bar simultaneously or in any case subsequently to penetration of the pins in the material.
  • said contact surface is withdrawn with respect to the bottom of the seat of the counter-plate.
  • the term withdrawn means that said surface is at greater distance from the first pressing element with respect to the bottom of the seat. In this way, the contact surface starts to exert the thrust on the bar simultaneously to or after the fastening pins of the decoration have partially penetrated the sheet of material.
  • the number 1 indicates as a whole a decoration composed of a plurality of decorative elements 10 arranged one with respect to the other according to a predetermined spatial configuration.
  • the decoration comprises a string of letters side by side and aligned on a single line.
  • the decorative elements have a substantially flat rear surface 11 and a top, or exposed, surface 12 having a profile that varies as a function of the shape and of the type of decorative element.
  • Said upper surface 12 is generally in turn formed by a plurality of contiguous and optionally continuous surfaces.
  • the thickness of the decorative elements 10 can vary; typically, it is comprised between 0.5 mm and 10 mm and preferably between 1 mm and 4 mm.
  • the fastening pins 13 which, as will be better illustrated below, allow the decoration to be attached to the sheet of material, protrude from the rear surface 11 of the decorative elements.
  • the decorative elements 10 are maintained in the predetermined position by temporary connection means, indicated as a whole with 20.
  • connection means 20 comprise a substantially rectilinear bar 21 from which a plurality of tabs 22, which join the various decorative elements 10, protrude.
  • each decorative element 10 is connected to the bar 21 by at least one tab 22.
  • the decoration comprises a pair of bars 21, and respective set of tabs 22, arranged on opposite sides to the main direction of development of the decoration. In this way, at least are two tabs 22 are connected to each decorative element 10.
  • the end of the tabs 22 is fastened at the lower surface 11 of the decorative elements so that a breaking surface is created on said surface.
  • said tabs In order to obtain a section that facilitates breaking of the tabs 22 located at the aforesaid rear surface 11 of the decorative elements 10, said tabs have a section that decreases from the bar 21 toward the decorative elements 10.
  • the bar 21 can have substantially any shape, for example a polygonal, circular, curved or mixed profile.
  • the shape and the position of the bar 21 with respect to the decorative elements 10 are such that the bar has at least one abutment surface 21a located at an intermediate height between the rear surface 12 and free end of the fastening pins 13 of the decorative elements 10.
  • Said abutment surface 21a can have any shape or extension; if said surface is not flat, in order to establish its position, the closest point at the ends of the fastening pins 13 is considered as height.
  • the decoration 10 and the connection means 20 are generally obtained in a single monolithic piece by means of casting, die-casting or moulding processes.
  • Materials typically used to produce the decoration of the invention are zamak or thermoplastic materials.
  • the decorative elements 10 are retained on the sheet of material by a fastening counter-plate 30 provided with openings 31 adapted to accommodate the fastening pins 13 of the decorative elements.
  • said openings 31 have a cross shape or the like and are configured to become slightly deformed when the fastening pin 13 passes through them. Blocking between the aforesaid elements is prevalently obtained through friction.
  • the fastening counter-plate 30 is made of steel and has a constant thickness preferably between 0.2 mm and 0.5 mm and more preferably between 0.3 mm and 0.4 mm.
  • the counter-plate thus structured ensures both sufficient mechanical strength at the openings 31 and, at the same time, excellent flexibility.
  • a pressing device 100 which can be used to apply the decoration 1 of the present invention to a sheet of material M.
  • the pressing device 100 comprises a first pressing element 110 and a second pressing element 120, facing and movable toward and away from each other.
  • first element 110 is fixed, while the second element 120 can be moved under the action of manual or automatic actuator means, of known type, not illustrated in the figures.
  • the first pressing element 110 comprises a seat 111 adapted to accommodate the decoration 1 and to hold it still.
  • said seat 111 generally has a shape at least partially complementary to the shape of the decorative elements 10.
