FR2670042A1 - METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SIGNS OR SIGNAL PANELS USING DOUBLE-SIDED ADHESIVE GRAPHICS AND A SUBSEQUENT APPLIED DECORATIVE LAYER - Google Patents

Abstract

The invention relates to methods of producing signs or signs or the like. This method of applying a film of gold or silver or the like uses an automatic die-cutting machine (12) which cuts a desired graphic (18) from a strip (11) of double-sided adhesive. When the adhesive graphic is applied to the surface of a substrate, an adhesive surface is exposed on the outside on which the gold or silver film is deposited. Main application: golden or silver signage.

  BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a process

  to create a graphic from a web of material

  So far, the operation consisting of

  a sheet of gold on the support surface of a sign was reserved for artisans with

  specialized skills to gild a surface of the

  The creation of such graphics by the techni-

  Known materials involve costly time and human resources Since the gold or other precious metal film is extremely malleable and thin, it is very difficult to work with such a film. It is also very expensive, which

  makes the mistakes that occur on the

  casion of its handling and its application during

  the gilding operation All this enhances the skills

  these particulars of the artisan In addition, these skills

  these must also include the drawing talent that is needed to draw the desired graphic on the

  surface using a liquid adhesive.

  the craftsman was laying on the surface of the substrate

  This process had its own disadvantages

  degree of stickiness due to the fact that the aqueous base

  was evaporating from the adhesive over time Also, all the specialist skills and experience needed

  the artisan to detect when gelatin

  had the good adhesiveness, so that the pel-

  gold or silver can be properly applied

  For example, if the gelatin has too much water at the time the film is applied, it leaves the film slip when it is put in contact with it instead of holding it, which destroys the film. definition of the form one seeks to

  these verticals, for example on a glass window, water-based gelatin flows frequently, which has the effect of defiling the surface of the signboard and

to create an unpleasant aspect.

  The known techniques that are applied to gild a surface using a sheet or film

  of gold or another thin metal film

  were also a texturing of the surface on which the film was to be applied, this to create a desired exterior appearance. These textured aspects frequently took the form of a whirlpool pattern, a sandblasted surface or a grid pattern.

  previously known texturing

  A process of this type is known under the name

  signed "chipped glue" in which, to obtain

  desired textured finish on a glass surface, the

  san deposited a layer of glue on this surface then applied a mask on the glue while the glue was not yet taken. Then, he cooked the mask and the underlying glue until the surface of the glass fixed to the mask through the glue,

  then he tore off the mask and glue from the

  aunt of the underlying glass, thus creating a drawing effect in the mask area. Then, he glued a film of gold or other metal on this area to

  gelatin, so that the gold film first

  This process was both time-consuming and costly because of the need to heat the glass during the treatment. In addition, since this previously known method involved the use of an oven, it could not be used. on the spot but was instead limited to the restricted application in a

  installation with appropriate equipment.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention

  is to create a method for applying a metamodel

  on the surface of a signboard in use.

  Another object of the present invention is to create a method of the type mentioned above in which the double-sided adhesive is cut automatically by

  sign or signboard to form a chart.

  between the constituent parts that the graphis-

  cut off initially by the machine.

  Yet another object of the present invention is to create a process of the aforementioned type in which at least a first surface of the adhesive layer has

  a preformed construction that defines a textu-

  on which the metal film is applied.

  Yet another object of the present invention

  is to create a process and associated means to

  apply a film of gold or other precious metal to a surface without requiring specialized skills

of a craftsman.

  Other objects and advantages of the present invention

  will emerge from the following description and

  only drawings and appended claims.

  The object of the present invention is to create a

  graphic design in double-sided adhesive tape

  by cutting into the adhesive sheet a shape that

  defines an adhesive graphic, then placing that

  The subject of the invention is also a preform
