ES2396835A1 - System of transfer of images by reticulation-incrustation. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding) - Google Patents

Abstract

The object of this patent is to describe an image transfer system by crosslinking-embedding. This system is based on the thermoplasticity property of the toner and the property of melting each time heat is applied. In order to carry out this transfer system, it is necessary that there is a "temporary support" and a "final support". The "temporary support" is the one that sustains the photocopied image, generally we can use paper, wood, cloth, etc., and on which the image will be embedded once transferred. The "final support" is in which the image will be embedded once transferred. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)

Description

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The purpose of this patent is to describe an image transfer system by crosslinking-embedding.

This system is based on the "transfer" method. The word transfer, as the meaning of transfer action, has different meanings that place the transfer around a concept and an action. It is defined, in principle, as the passage from one place to another.

Basically that is what is intended with this system of cross-linking, the transfer of an image in whole or in part from one support to another.

SCOPE

The present invention is applicable in the field of graphic arts, specifically in the field of images and in the field of creation, although it is not intended to limit these areas and can be applied to other areas related to the management and use of images, photographs, etc.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A <.. 'There are currently various transfer systems, applied to many fields of action, although the main focus is on artistic creation.

In these systems transfer is spoken because there are continuous changes of place in the image. You might even think that stamping or printing are synonyms of transfer. One might think, perhaps, that the image on a metal offset plate is transferred to the rubber base and from this to the paper. You might think, that the

What is transferred in the stamping is the ink, qüc to its V "'CZ is the double or imprint of the image previously constituted in metal in the copper engraving; in the Iüadeia in xilogiafia, Cüiftü dt: Illt: Jií.o gta : so t: tt the liiogy, or cutu o'uí.Uiacion of the screen in the silkscreen.

Image transfer has always been an aspect of engraving. It has been based mainly on how to pass an original drawing, made on paper, to a support, which after processing, will become a matrix.

Over the years, artists have been using image transfer

As an image making process.

Currently, the methods most used by artists to perform image transfers are "By dissolution" and "By heat / pressure" methods

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The transfer as a method should be a flexible process and enable the transfer of the image to the largest number of new media. The key is to keep the image and change the media.

The best transfer method is one in which the image travels 100% materially. Although it is reasonable to have, with the inherent modifications that the transfer method made produces an image, once transferred.

The reasons for the need to transfer images from one medium to another are basically the following:

For interest in the image but not in its support.

For the need to continue working the image.

For the need to add new meanings to the image.

The transfer method of which we are called "By Reticulation-Embedding".

This system is based on the thermoplasticity property of the toner and the property of melting each time heat is applied. Between the melting point of the toner and the solidification, there is an intermediate phase in which the toner remains pasty. At that temperature it does not expand the dimension of the grain, as happens when it melts too much and expands.

1st

In order to carry out this transfer system, it is necessary to have a "Temporary Support" and a "Final Support".

15 20

The "Temporary Support" is the one that supports the photocopied image, generally we can use paper, wood, cloth, etc. The toner that constitutes the image will be applied on the temporary support in various ways according to the photocopier has fixed the toner on it. The type of application of the toner will largely decide the possibilities of transporting the image from one place to another. It is called temporary support because the image will appear on it, only long enough until it is transferred to another support that will be called "Final Support".

25

The "Final Support" is the one in which the image will be embedded once transferred. In these final supports is where the image will reside as the final image, we will act more on it, or not, we will continue to modify it, or not.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

   To complement the description that is being made, and in order to facilitate a better understanding of the characteristics of the inlaid crosslinking system, this report is accompanied as an integral part of it, drawings made with an illustrative and non-limiting nature, which Then proceed to describe:

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the aforementioned figures, and in accordance with the numbering adopted, examples of preferred embodiments of the invention can be observed therein, and comprising the parts and elements indicated and described in detail below, not intended at all limit the scope of the invention.

Figure 1 shows the first step of the process. This first step consists of applying a toner layer (2) on a support, called temporary support (1), be it paper, wood, etc. In this temporary support (1) will go the printed image that we want to embed.

Figure 2 shows the second of the process. It consists of using another support, called final support (2), which can be made of paper, wood, fabric, etc., and on it apply a layer of paint, varnish, silicone, oil, etc. ( 4).

Figure 3 shows the next step in the process, which consists of bringing the two supports (1 and 3) of the two previous steps into contact. Once in contact, it is allowed to evaporate for a while.

Figure 4 shows the last step of the process. The temporary support (1) with toner (2) is removed and it will have been trapped in the layer of paint, varnish, silicone, oil, etc. (4), resulting in the final embedded image (5).

It is not considered necessary to make this description more extensive so that any person skilled in the art understands the scope of the invention and the advantages derived therefrom.

The materials, shape, size and arrangement of the elements will be subject to variation, provided that this does not imply an alteration to the essentiality of the invention.

The terms in which this report has been described must always be taken broadly and not limitatively.
