Description

  The present invention relates to a coating film transfer tool that uses a transfer tape in which a coating film such as a correction film or a glue film is formed on a base tape, and transfers the coating film of the transfer tape to a transfer surface of an object.

  In correction work on printed or written paper, it is time-consuming until the correction liquid dries, and then corrections are made by painting the correction liquid and painting letters and figures on the paper. Correction tapes of a type in which a white opaque coating film is transferred onto a paper surface so as to fill letters and figures are widely used. Also, instead of applying glue at the time of the pasting operation, a glue tape of a type that transfers a glue coating film is also used. Further, a transfer tape can be used by transferring a transparent film of any color instead of the line marker.

  The transfer tool for transferring a coating film such as a correction coating film or a paste coating film onto a surface to be transferred such as the above is a transfer tape in which a transfer layer of a coating film such as a correction film or a paste film is formed on a base tape. By using the transfer tape, the user moves the pressing position on the transfer surface such as the paper surface of the transfer tape to transfer the coating film onto the transfer surface (Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2002-205495). Etc.).

  Such a transfer tool accommodates a transfer tape supply reel and a recovery reel for recovering used tape inside the case, and includes a transfer head protruding outward at the front end portion of the case. A transfer tape is pressed against a surface to be transferred by a head and transferred.

  Here, since one type of tape width of the correction tape is difficult to cope with when the size of the correction portion is different, a plurality of types of correction tapes corresponding to the correction width are required. However, it takes time to purchase and manage multiple types of correction tapes.

  In order to solve such a problem, a transfer tool in which a plurality of transfer heads having different front end widths are stacked has been proposed, which is a transfer head slide that selects and moves a transfer head corresponding to a required transfer width. (See Patent Document 2: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-291893, Patent Document 3: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-348490).

  In addition, a transfer tool has been proposed in which a plurality of protrusions having different tip widths are provided around a rotating transfer head. This is done by selecting a protrusion corresponding to a required transfer width, and rotating the transfer head. A transfer head is of a rotary type in which the selected protrusion is brought into contact with the back surface of the transfer tape (refer to Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-291718).

  In addition, a transfer tool has been proposed in which a plurality of protrusions with different pressing widths are provided on a fixed transfer head. This is because a protrusion corresponding to a required transfer width is selected and transferred to a transfer surface of the transfer tool. This is an irregularly shaped transfer head in which the selected protrusions are changed in contact with the back surface of the transfer tape by changing the angle of the head (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 11-157291).

In addition, a transfer tape has been proposed that can be transferred cleanly even when the pressing width of the transfer head is narrower than the width of the transfer tape, and this is applied in the length direction to the transfer layer of the coating film of the transfer tape. A plurality of slits are provided in the width direction, the transfer layer is cut by the slits according to the pressing width of the transfer head, and the transfer layer having the necessary width is transferred to the transfer surface (Patent Document 6: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-151). -166165, Patent Document 7: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-172213, Patent Document 8: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-157290).

  However, the coating film transfer tool described in Patent Documents 2 and 3 is provided with two sliding transfer heads, and the transfer tool of Patent Document 4 is provided with a rotary transfer head, both of which have a small structure. Although it is a transfer tool, it has a problem that the number of parts is large and the structure is complicated, resulting in an obstacle to cost reduction.

  Furthermore, in the coating film transfer tool described in Patent Document 5, in order to keep pressing the projection corresponding to the desired coating film width against the transfer tape, the pressing angle of the coating film transfer tool with respect to the transfer surface Must be maintained at a constant angle, requiring the skill of the user, and the unskilled person has a problem that a coating film having a width as expected cannot be transferred.

  In addition, even if it uses the transfer tape for transfer tools as described in the above-mentioned patent documents 6-8 etc., the slit process is required for the coating film of a transfer tape, and there exists a problem that a manufacturing difficulty is very high. Further, when the position of the slit and the transfer head is shifted, the slit is cut at a portion that is not a slit, so that there is a problem that the transfer cannot be performed cleanly.

  The present invention is for solving the above-described problems, and uses a transfer tape that has a small number of parts, is simple in structure, does not require cost, does not require skill in use, and has no slits. However, the present invention provides a coating film transfer tool capable of transferring a coating film having a desired width to the transfer surface.

  The present invention is provided with a supply reel that winds and accommodates a transfer tape before use in which a coating film is formed on one side of the base tape, and a take-up reel that winds and collects the transfer tape after use in a case, In the coating film transfer tool having a transfer head for pressing the transfer tape from the other surface side in a state where the coating film on one side of the transfer tape is in contact with the transfer target surface of the object, the transfer head is A base body with a flat feed path formed on the outer peripheral surface that guides the transfer tape before use out of the case to the transfer position and guides the transfer tape after use into the case, and the front end is the transfer tape A slide transfer body which is pressed from the surface side to transfer the coating film on the one surface side and which is provided on the base body so as to be movable in the width direction of the feed path. Feed path width The position relative to the direction is displaced according to the desired coating film width, and the transfer tape can be transferred to the transfer surface with the desired coating film width by pressing the transfer tape with the slide transfer body at the displaced position. Then, it is a coating film transfer tool.

  In the present invention, the base body of the transfer head is provided with guide protrusions facing each other across the feed path at a position on the transfer tape feed path and in front of the transfer tape pressing position. It is preferable that an unused transfer tape directed to the pressing position through the transfer tape is guided from the width direction.

  Further, in the present invention, the base body of the transfer head has a substantially U shape with the front end cut out, and a guide body is fixed across the cutout portion in the cutout portion of the front end. It is preferable that the slide transfer body is slidably fitted to the body.

  In the present invention, it is preferable that an elastic member for biasing the slide transfer body forward is provided between the base body of the transfer head and the slide transfer body.

  According to the coating film transfer tool of the present invention, in the transfer head, a transfer tape that guides the transfer tape before use, which comes out of the case to the transfer position, and guides the transfer tape after use into the case on the outer peripheral surface of the base body. The slide body is provided on the base body so that the slide end can be moved in the width direction of the feed path so that the front end presses the transfer tape from the other side to transfer the coating film on one side. Therefore, the transfer head can be configured with a simple structure of a base body and a slide transfer body, and the number of parts is small and the structure is simple, so that the cost can be reduced.

  Further, the position of the slide transfer body with respect to the width direction of the feed path is displaced according to the desired coating film width, and the transfer tape is pressed by the slide transfer body at the displaced position to transfer the object with the desired coating film width. Since the coating film can be transferred onto the surface, the transfer width of the coating film can be easily set to an arbitrary width by simply displacing the position of the slide transfer body, and the width setting steering is extremely easy.

  In addition, the transfer width of the coating film can be set steplessly by displacing the position in the width direction of the slide transfer body steplessly, so there are several steps such as the structure by replacing the conventional transfer head. The width of the coating film can be set flexibly and arbitrarily compared to the one that can only set the width, and even if there is only one type of transfer tape width, it can exhibit the function that can set the width of the coating film innumerably, so it is very usable range Wide film transfer tool can be provided.

  In the present invention, the transfer head base body is provided with guide projections facing each other across the feed path on the transfer tape feed path and in front of the transfer tape pressing position. In addition, an unused transfer tape that is directed to the pressing position through the transfer tape can be guided from the width direction. The simple structure of the guide protrusions provided on the base body allows the transfer tape to be accurately guided to its pressed position without causing the width position to “shake” from side to side, so that the transfer tape is reliable with a simple and inexpensive structure. Can be positioned.

  Further, in the present invention, the base body of the transfer head has a substantially U shape with the front end cut out, and the guide body is fixed across the cutout portion in the cutout portion of the front end. If the slide body is slidably fitted to the guide body, the slide body can be moved left and right within the notch at the front end of the base body with a simple structure guide body. Not only can the structure itself be simplified, the manufacturing is easy and standardization is facilitated, and the cost can be further reduced.

  Further, in the present invention, if an elastic member for biasing the slide transfer body forward is provided between the base body of the transfer head and the slide transfer body, the slide transfer body is cut off from the base body. Positioning can be ensured within the notch, and the width accuracy of the coating film transferred to the transfer surface can be further enhanced.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  1-6 is explanatory drawing of the best form (henceforth "embodiment") of the coating-film transfer tool concerning this invention. FIG. 1A is an external side view of the coating film transfer tool according to the embodiment, and FIG. 1B is a perspective explanatory view around the transfer head 20 at the front end of the coating film transfer tool. FIG. 2 is an explanatory view of the arrangement of the transfer tape 10 and the supply reel 12 and the take-up reel 14 of the coating film transfer tool, and shows a state where the cartridge 16 is installed in a removable cartridge in the case 16. FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram of the case 16 and the rotating shafts 22 and 24 of the reels 12 and 14 and shows a state in which each half of the case 16 is divided into two and opened. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the transfer state of the transfer tape 10 in the coating film transfer tool, FIGS. 5A and 5B are a detailed plan view, a side view, and FIG. 6A of the transfer head 20 in the coating film transfer tool. (B) and (b) are explanatory views of the setting state of each position of the slide transfer body 30 during transfer.

  As shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 4, the coating film transfer tool according to the embodiment is used with a supply reel 12 that winds and accommodates a transfer tape 10 before use in which a coating film 10 b is formed on one side of a base tape 10 a. A take-up reel 14 for taking up and collecting the subsequent transfer tape 10 is provided in the case 16, and a coating surface 10 a such as a paper surface of a target paper 18 (corresponding to a target object) is provided on one side of the transfer tape 10 with a coating film 10 b. A transfer head 20 for pressing the transfer tape 10 from the other surface side in a state of being in contact with the case 16 is provided at the front end portion of the case 16.

  Specifically, the transfer tape 10 is formed by forming a coating film 10b such as a white correction film or a paste film on the lower surface side (an example of one surface side) of a base tape 10a made of a thin film resin such as polypropylene or polyethylene before use. However, it is in a state of being wound around the supply reel 12 (see FIG. 4). After the transfer tape 10 is used by transferring the coating film 10b onto the transfer surface 18a of the target paper 18, the base tape 10a without the coating film 10b is wound around the take-up reel 14.

  The supply reel 12 and the take-up reel 14 have center holes 12a and 14a formed at the center of the shaft, and the case 16 is rotated to be inserted into the center holes 12a and 14a of the supply reel 12 and the take-up reel 14, respectively. Shafts 22 and 24 (each reel 12 and 14 is fixed in the rotational direction when loaded) are rotatably supported (see FIGS. 2 and 3). Gears 22a and 24a are fixed to the rotary shafts 22 and 24, respectively, in the rotational direction, and the gears 22a and 24a are engaged with each other. The rotating shafts 22 and 24 rotate in opposite directions due to the meshing of the gears 22a and 24, and the rotating shafts 22 and 24, that is, the reels 12 and 14 to be mounted are substantially in accordance with the set gear ratio. The rotation ratio is regulated. Specifically, the take-up reel 14 rotates more than the supply reel 12. However, since the take-up reel 14 is adapted to take up while sliding the base tape 10a, the take-up reel 14 can be taken up in a state where the base tape 10a is always stretched while absorbing the rotational difference between the reels 12 and 14. It is possible.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the case 16 is made of a resin having a generally box-shaped hollow box structure when the reels 12 and 14 are viewed in the axial direction. The case 16 is formed of halves separated in the thickness direction in the axial direction of the reels 12 and 14 and separated from the split surfaces 16d and 16d at the center in the thickness direction. Each half of the case 16 can be opened and closed by a hinge 16c, and each half has a configuration in which the divided surfaces 16d and 16d are combined and integrated.
The reels 12 and 14, the rotating shafts 22 and 24, the gears 22a and 24, etc. are made of resin set to have a predetermined rigidity. Some of these can be made of metal.
Further, in the case 16, the reels 12 and 14, which are a take-up and winding mechanism of the transfer tape 10, and the transfer head 20 are disposed between the pair of base plates 16 e. 14 and the transfer head 20, a cartridge structure is detachably integrated with the base plate 16 e from the case 16 in a state where the transfer tape 10 is bridged between the transfer head 20 and the transfer head 20.

  Further, the case 16 has a fitting portion for restricting the swing of the transfer head 20 in the opening 16a at the front end portion, and the transfer tape 20 is used to transfer an unused transfer tape 10 from the supply reel 12 through the opening 16a. Then, the transfer tape 10 after use is wound on the take-up reel 14. Further, in the case 16, a transfer tape 10 that is fed out from the feed reel 12 and a columnar rib 16 b that guides the transfer tape 10 that is taken up on the take-up reel 14 (in the embodiment, integrated with the base plate 16 e) are provided upright. Has been.

  As shown in FIGS. 1, 4, and 5, the transfer head 20 guides the transfer tape 10 before use that has come out of the case 16 to the transfer position, and guides the transfer tape 10 after use into the case 16. A base body 26 having a flat feed path 28 formed on the outer peripheral surface, and a front end portion 30a presses the transfer tape 10 from the other side to transfer the coating film 10b on one side. And a slide transfer body 30 provided on the base body 26 so as to be movable with respect to the direction.

  Since the transfer head 20 has such a configuration, the position of the slide transfer body 30 in the width direction of the feed path 28 is displaced according to the desired width of the coating film 10b, and the slide transfer body 30 at the displaced position is displaced. By pressing the transfer tape 10 by this, the coating film 10b can be transferred to the transfer surface 18a with a desired coating film 10b width.

  Further, the base body 26 of the transfer head 20 has a substantially wedge shape in a side view, and is the feeding path 28 having an upper surface and a lower surface formed on a flat surface. The feed path 28 (28 </ b> L) on the lower surface side of the base body 26 is a path through which the unused transfer tape 10 unwound from the supply reel 12 passes and reaches the front end 30 a of the slide transfer body 30. The transfer tape 10 reaching the front end 30a of the slide transfer body 30 is pressed by the slide transfer body 30, and the coating film 10b is transferred to the transfer surface 18a. After the transfer of the coating film 10b (after use), the transfer tape 10 is sent to the feed path 28 (28U) on the upper surface side of the base body 26 with the base tape 10a facing upward. The feed path 28 (28U) is a path through which the base tape 10a is taken up by the take-up reel 14.

  The lower surface side base body 26 is located on the feed path 28 of the transfer tape 10 and in front of the pressing position of the transfer tape 10 (the front end portion 30a of the slide transfer body 30), with the feed path 28 interposed therebetween. Guide protrusions 32 and 32 are provided at opposite positions, each having a substantially trapezoidal rib projecting downward in a side view. In the lower feed path 28 (28L), the unused transfer tape 10 that is directed to the pressing position is guided from the width direction through the transfer tape 10 between the opposing guide protrusions 32 and 32.

  Further, the base body 26 of the transfer head 20 has a substantially U-shape with the front end cut out, and the cut-out portion 26a is inserted into the cut-out portion 26a at the front end in the width direction of the feed path 28 (transfer tape 10). The rod-shaped guide body 34 is fixed across the width direction), and the slide-shaped transfer body 30 is slidably fitted by passing the rod-shaped guide body 34 through the hole 30b. The guide body may have other structures such as a rod-like structure or a groove-like structure provided in the base body 26 as long as one end of the slide transfer body 30 is slidably movable. May be.

  Further, an elastic member 36 that biases the slide transfer body 30 forward is provided between the base body 26 and the slide transfer body 30 of the transfer head 20. The elastic member 36 has a generally arcuate shape and is formed so as not to cause an obstacle to the left and right slides of the slide transfer body 30.

  Next, the operation of the coating film transfer tool according to the above-described embodiment will be described.

  FIGS. 6A and 6B are explanatory views showing a state in which the slide transfer body is positioned on the feed path side and the counter feed path side.

  In the coating film transfer tool according to the embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6A, when the slide transfer body 30 is brought close to the end portion on the feed path 28 side, the coating film 10b can be transferred with the full width.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6B, when the slide transfer body 30 is brought close to the opposite end of the feed path 28, the coating film 10b can be transferred with a half width. It should be noted that the transfer width of the coating film can be set to be narrower by adopting a structure in which the position where the slide transfer body 30 approaches is positioned farther than the feed path 28.

  Therefore, the transfer width of the coating film 10b can be set to an arbitrary width from the full width to the half width to the minimum width by setting the position of the slide transfer body 30 in the middle.

  According to the coating film transfer tool, in the transfer head 20, the transfer tape 10 before use that has come out of the case 16 to the outer peripheral surface of the base body 26 is guided to the transfer position, and the transfer tape 10 after use is transferred into the case 16. In the width direction of the feed path 28, the slide transfer body 30 is formed so that the front end of the slide transfer body 30 presses the transfer tape 10 from the other side to transfer the coating film 10 b on one side. On the other hand, since the base body 26 is structured so as to be movable, the transfer head 20 can be configured with a simple structure of the base body 26 and the slide transfer body 30, and the number of parts is small and the structure is simple. So it can be made cheap.

  Further, the position of the slide transfer body 30 in the width direction of the feed path 28 is displaced according to the desired coating film 10b width, and the transfer tape 10 is pressed by the slide transfer body 30 at the displaced position to thereby apply the desired coating. The coating film 10b can be transferred to the transfer surface 18a with the width of the film 10b. Therefore, the transfer width of the coating film 10b can be easily set to an arbitrary width by simply displacing the position of the slide transfer body 30, and the width setting operation is extremely easy.

  Further, the transfer width of the coating film 10b can be set steplessly by displacing the width direction position of the slide transfer body 30 steplessly. Accordingly, the width of the coating film 10b can be set flexibly and arbitrarily as compared with the conventional structure in which the width can be set only in several steps, such as a structure obtained by replacing the transfer head 20, and even if the width of the transfer tape 10 is one type. Since the function which can set the width | variety of the coating film 10b innumerable can be exhibited, the coating-film transfer tool of a very wide use range can be provided.

  A guide protrusion 32 is provided on the base body 26 of the transfer head 20 on the feed path 28 of the transfer tape 10 and at a position before the pressing position of the transfer tape 10 with the feed path 28 interposed therebetween. Since the unused transfer tape 10 that is directed to the pressing position through the transfer tape 10 between the guide protrusions 32 is guided from the width direction, the width position of the transfer tape 10 is reduced by a simple configuration of the guide protrusions 32 provided on the base body 26. It is possible to accurately guide to the pressed position without “blurring” left and right. Therefore, the transfer tape 10 can be reliably positioned with a simple and inexpensive configuration.

  Further, the base body 26 of the transfer head 20 has a substantially U-shape with the front end cut out, and a rod-shaped guide body 34 is fixed in the cutout portion 26a at the front end across the cutout portion 26a. Then, the slide transfer body 30 is slidably fitted on the rod-shaped guide body 34 so that the slide transfer body 30 is surely secured within the notch at the front end of the base body 26 by the rod-shaped guide body 34 having a simple configuration. Since it can be moved left and right, not only the number of parts but also the structure itself can be simplified, manufacturing is easy and standardization is possible, and further cost reduction can be achieved.

  In the present invention, if an elastic member for biasing the slide transfer body 30 forward is provided between the base body 26 and the slide transfer body 30 of the transfer head 20, the slide transfer body 30 is provided. Can be reliably positioned within the notch in the base body 26, and the tape width accuracy can be further improved.

  The coating film transfer tool of the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and it is needless to say that various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present invention.
