Description
Ruban d'impression par transfert thermique d'encre de couleur pourColor ink thermal transfer printing ribbon for
imprimante La présente invention concerne un ruban d'impression par transfert The present invention relates to a transfer printing ribbon.
thermique d'encre pour imprimante.thermal ink for printer.
D'emblée, on notera que par transfert thermique on entend aussi bien le transfert thermique stricto sensu que la sublimation, c'est-à-dire tout procédé de transfert d'encre par une source thermique. L'homme du From the outset, it will be noted that by thermal transfer is understood both thermal transfer stricto sensu and sublimation, that is to say any ink transfer process by a thermal source. The man of
métier le sait.profession knows this.
Il existe des rubans à encre noire et des rubans à encre de couleur. On ne There are black ink ribbons and colored ink ribbons. Onne
considère ici que les rubans de couleur. here consider only the colored ribbons.
Un ruban noir comporte un film support, généralement en polyéthylène (PET), une couche d'encre noire et, entre les deux, une couche antiphotocopie également de couleur noire. Les deux couches étant opaques aux rayons infrarouge, dans certaines imprimantes, on utilise un ensemble émetteur-récepteur infrarouge pour détecter la présence du ruban. Si le rayonnement d'une diode infrarouge émettrice est reçu par un phototransistor récepteur, c'est qu'il n'y a pas de ruban. Sinon, le A black ribbon comprises a support film, generally made of polyethylene (PET), a layer of black ink and, between the two, an anti-photocopy layer also of black color. The two layers being opaque to infrared rays, in some printers, an infrared transceiver assembly is used to detect the presence of the ribbon. If the radiation from an emitting infrared diode is received by a receiving phototransistor, there is no ribbon. Otherwise, the
rayonnement est arrêté par le ruban. radiation is stopped by the ribbon.
Dans le cas d'un ruban de couleur, la couche d'encre, non noire, est directement appliquée sur le film, sans couche antiphotocopie noire intermédiaire, pour éviter qu'après impression on ne puisse lire directement le ruban. Sinon, les endroits dépourvus d'encre apparaitraient clairement sur le fond noir de la couche antiphotocopie, parfaitement In the case of a colored ribbon, the layer of ink, not black, is directly applied to the film, without an intermediate black anti-photocopy layer, to avoid that, after printing, the ribbon cannot be read directly. Otherwise, the areas devoid of ink would appear clearly on the black background of the photocopy layer, perfectly
délimités par les parties restantes de la couche d'encre de couleur. delimited by the remaining parts of the color ink layer.
Mais une telle structure de ruban d'impression par transfert thermique d'encre de couleur n'autorise pas la détection de présence par rayonnement (infrarouge), puisque le ruban (film et couche d'encre de However, such a structure of printing ribbon by thermal transfer of color ink does not allow detection of presence by radiation (infrared), since the ribbon (film and ink layer of
couleur) est totalement transparent aux rayons (infrarouge). color) is completely transparent to rays (infrared).

Et bien, la demanderesse a décidé de proposer un ruban d'impression par transfert thermique d'encre de couleur pour imprimante, avec un film supportant une couche d'encre d'impression, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte des moyens de détection agencés pour faire obstacle à un rayonnement de longueur d'onde déterminée pour lequel la couche Well, the applicant has decided to propose a printing ribbon by thermal transfer of color ink for printer, with a film supporting a layer of printing ink, characterized in that it includes detection means arranged to obstruct radiation of determined wavelength for which the layer
d'encre d'impression est transparente. printing ink is transparent.
La présence du ruban peut donc être détectée dans cette longueur d'onde par un ensemble émetteur-récepteur fonctionnant dans cette longueur The presence of the ribbon can therefore be detected in this wavelength by a transmitter-receiver unit operating in this length.

Avantageusement, il est prévu une couche d'encre intermédiaire opaque dans la longueur d'onde considérée, entre le film et la couche d'encre Advantageously, there is provided an intermediate ink layer opaque in the wavelength considered, between the film and the ink layer

Mais on pourrait également envisager de considérer un film support teinté But we could also consider considering a tinted support film

Comme couche intermédiaire de détection de présence, on peut considérer par exemple la couche référencée ML SUMI du fabricant DAI As an intermediate presence detection layer, one can consider for example the layer referenced ML SUMI from the manufacturer DAI

Le ruban comporte un film support 1, ici en polyéthylène, une couche d'encre d'impression de couleur 2, conventionnelle, et, entre les deux, une couche intermédiaire 3, ici une couche d'encre de couleur noire référencée ML SUMI du fabricant DAI NIPPON PRINTING. Le film support 1 et la couche d'encre d'impression 2 sont transparents au rayonnement infrarouge, alors que la couche intermédiaire 3 est opaque dans cette longueur d'onde. Ainsi, un ensemble émetteur-récepteur fonctionnant en infrarouge, d'un même côté du ruban, avec un miroir de l'autre côté, ou respectivement des deux côtés du ruban, permet de The ribbon comprises a support film 1, here made of polyethylene, a layer of printing ink of color 2, conventional, and, between the two, an intermediate layer 3, here a layer of ink of black color referenced ML SUMI of manufacturer DAI NIPPON PRINTING. The support film 1 and the printing ink layer 2 are transparent to infrared radiation, while the intermediate layer 3 is opaque in this wavelength. Thus, a transmitter-receiver unit operating in infrared, on the same side of the ribbon, with a mirror on the other side, or respectively on the two sides of the ribbon, makes it possible to
détecter la présence du ruban.detect the presence of the ribbon.
