Description

  The present invention relates to a metal fabric, a sheet set including a plurality of metal fabrics, a decorative product obtained by bending the metal fabric, a stationery and a container, and a method for manufacturing the container.

  Origami is a traditional playground equipment that has been in Japan since ancient times. Origami is made of paper as its name suggests, and a fold is formed by the force of folding with a finger to fold up the target shape. However, since paper easily deteriorates due to contact with water, light, fungi, etc., it is difficult to hold the shape of the folded shaped object for a long period of time. For the same reason, it has been difficult to use the folded origami by attaching it to the body or belongings as an ornament (accessory).

  The following Patent Document 1 discloses origami made of a sheet body in which a plastic holding metal core material and a fiber reinforced resin (FRP) layer are provided inside, and paper is laminated on the outer surface of the FRP layer. A metal mesh or a thin punching metal is used as the plastic holding metal core. By having the metal core material for plastic holding inside, it is said that the origami is excellent in strength and can hold the shape after modeling.

JP 2002-154190 A

  Since the origami of Patent Document 1 is a paper layer on the surface reinforced with an FRP layer or a metal core material, the ease of deterioration of the paper layer is improved even if the folded shape retainability is improved. It is no different from conventional paper origami. For this reason, the folded shaped object cannot be viewed for a long period of time.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-described problems, and can be folded with a finger like a conventional origami to fold a modeled object, and can be viewed over a long period of time. The present invention provides a sheet body that can be used.

About.

  The present invention also relates to a decorative article, a stationery, a container, and a method for producing the container, in which the metal fabric is bent.

  According to the metal fabric of the present invention, by using metal wires of a predetermined wire diameter for warp and weft, the rigidity and sharpness of the metal wires are reduced, and the shaped object is folded up safely with fingers like origami. It is possible. The metal fabric of the present invention is composed of metal wires, so that it has extremely high form stability and weather resistance compared to conventional paper origami, and the folded shaped object can be viewed over a long period of time. Is possible. Moreover, since the decorative article of the present invention is formed by bending the above-mentioned metal fabric, it is similarly excellent in form stability and weather resistance, and can be suitably used as an accessory by attaching it to the body or belongings. Is possible.

It is a top view of the rectangular metal fabric obtained by cutting the elongate metal fabric of 3rd embodiment with a fracture line.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In each drawing, corresponding constituent elements are denoted by common reference numerals, and redundant description is omitted as appropriate.

  FIG. 1 is a plan view showing a metal fabric 10 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the end 90 of the metal fabric 10 shown in FIG.

  First, an outline of the present embodiment will be described. The metal fabric 10 has a sheet shape, and is a metal fabric having warp metal wires 30 as warp yarns and weft metal wires 20 as weft yarns. The average wire diameters of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are 0.03 mm or more and 0.09 mm or less, respectively.

  The metal fabric 10 of the present embodiment is a cloth in which a warp metal wire 30 and a weft metal wire 20 are woven in a mesh shape. The metal fabric 10 is a wire mesh that can be used as origami. As shown in FIG. 1, the xy axis direction is set for convenience, the x direction is called the weft direction, and the y direction is called the warp direction. A metal wire extending in the weft direction is referred to as a weft metal wire 20, and a metal wire extending in the warp direction is referred to as a warp metal wire 30. The metal woven fabric 10 having a sheet shape means that the metal woven fabric 10 is thin and does not require the metal woven fabric 10 to be a complete plane.

  The metal fabric 10 has a square shape in a plan view shown in FIG. Although the plane dimension of the metal fabric 10 is not particularly limited, the side length can be set to 100 mm or more and 200 mm or less with respect to the plane dimension. Thereby, the handleability similar to a general origami is obtained. When the metal fabric 10 is used as origami, it may be mainly used for hobbies for children, or mainly for making origami shaped articles for adults.

As a metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30, copper, aluminum, nickel, titanium, gold, silver, platinum, iron, zinc, tin, lead, or an alloy thereof can be used. More specifically, the metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30 is preferably any one selected from the group consisting of copper (pure copper), copper alloy, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, and titanium. The metal material constituting the wire 20 is also preferably any one selected from the above group. As the copper alloy, brass (brass), red brass, phosphor bronze, white copper, bronze, or the like can be used. Since red brass and brass have a gold color and SUS has a silver color, the metal fabric 10 that is particularly excellent in aesthetics can be obtained by using these metal materials.
The metal fabric 10 may be one in which the bases of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are exposed, or may be printed on the entire surface or a part of the metal fabric 10. Various means can be used for printing. For example, color printing may be performed using an ink jet printer.

  The metal fabric 10 includes a plurality of warp metal wires 30 and weft metal wires 20. The number of warp metal wires 30 and weft metal wires 20 may be the same or different. The plurality of warp metal wires 30 may be a group of metal wires formed of the same kind of metal material or a group of a plurality of types of metal wires formed of different metal materials. Good. The same applies to the weft metal wire 20.

  The warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 may be formed of the same metal or may be formed of different metals. The warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are different metals because the main component of the metal contained in the warp metal wire 30 and the main component of the metal contained in the weft metal wire 20 are different. It means that.

  The Young's modulus of the metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 can be 60 GPa or more and 220 GPa or less, preferably 100 GPa or more and 220 GPa or less.

  The metal wire 30 for warp or the metal wire 20 for weft may use a metal material as it is, or may coat the surface. The coating may be colorless and transparent, achromatic such as white or black, or chromatic. The chromatic color is not particularly limited, such as red, yellow, blue, and green.

  The wire diameters of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 may be the same, or one may have a larger diameter than the other. As described above, the average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is preferably 0.03 mm to 0.09 mm, and more preferably 0.03 mm to 0.06 mm. Although a particularly preferable wire diameter is slightly different depending on the metal material selected as the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20, as long as the metal materials exemplified above are selected, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are used. The average wire diameter is preferably in the above numerical range. When the average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is set to 0.03 mm or more, a desired stiffness can be obtained in the metal fabric 10. A clear crease can be formed. According to the inventor's study, when the above-described various metal materials are used for the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20, the elastic restoring force of the crease is excessive when the average wire diameter is 0.1 mm or more. Thus, it becomes difficult to form a clear crease, and the characteristic when the metal fabric 10 is folded is remarkably changed by making the average wire diameter less than 0.1 mm, particularly 0.09 mm or less. It became clear that clear folds could be formed. Further, by setting the average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 to 0.09 mm or less, the metal fabric 10 can be made like origami without applying excessive force compared to paper origami. Can be folded. The average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 can be obtained as an average value obtained by measuring the wire diameters of intermediate portions excluding the lump portions 40 at both ends described later at a plurality of points.

  At least one surface of the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 may have a chromatic color. A chromatic color is a color excluding an achromatic color such as white or black and a metal color such as gold or silver. In the case of a chromatic color, a color line coated as described above may be used. In addition, titanium may be used as the metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20, and a color titanium wire obtained by photocatalytically processing titanium may be used.

  The number of meshes of the metal fabric 10 is preferably 100 mesh or more and 250 mesh or less. If the number of meshes is too small, it will be difficult to make a crease because the metal wire will be easily restored even if it is urged with a finger. It becomes difficult to form a simple crease. On the other hand, if the number of meshes is excessive, it is necessary to reduce the diameter of the metal wire, and it becomes difficult to realize the preferable average wire diameter. The number of meshes means the number of meshes included in a length of 1 inch (25.4 mm). The mesh is an opening surrounded by the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20. The number of meshes in the warp direction and the weft direction in the metal fabric 10 may be equal to or different from each other.

The preferred number of meshes of the metal fabric 10 is determined by the relationship with the spreadability of the metal material of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20. More specifically, when the metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is copper, red brass, brass or aluminum alloy, the number of meshes is preferably 120 mesh or more and 160 mesh or less. When the metal material constituting the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is phosphor bronze, stainless steel or titanium, the number of meshes is preferably 160 mesh or more and 250 mesh or less.
As a result of intensive studies by the present inventor, by selecting a combination of the above-mentioned metal material and the number of meshes, it is possible to suppress the formation failure of the crease and the return of the crease, and the metal is pressed by the finger like paper origami. It became clear that a clear crease could be formed in the fabric 10.

  The metal fabrics 10 of this embodiment may be provided individually one by one, but a plurality of metal fabrics 10 may be provided as a set. That is, according to the present invention, a sheet set (not shown) including a plurality of metal fabrics 10 is realized. In this sheet set, a first sheet-shaped metal fabric and a second sheet-shaped metal fabric are packaged integrally. In the first sheet-like metal fabric, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are formed of a copper alloy and have a gold color, and the second sheet-like metal fabric includes the warp metal wire 30 and the weft. The metal wire 20 is made of aluminum alloy or stainless steel and has a silver color. In addition to this, the sheet set may be packaged by including a metallic fabric exhibiting a chromatic color such as red or blue. Thus, by providing including a multicolor sheet | seat, the user can select the metal fabric of the color suitable for the objective and taste, and can use it as origami.

The weaving method of the metal fabric 10 is not limited, and may be a fabric woven by various weaving methods using warp and weft, such as plain weave, twill weave, tatami mat or twill weave.
Among these, it is preferable that the metal fabric 10 of this embodiment has the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 plain woven. As shown in FIG. 2, when the metal fabric 10 is folded up with a finger as an origami, the intersection of the metal wire for warp 30 and the metal wire for weft 20 is aligned on the orthogonal lattice by using plain weave. This is because a straight crease can be easily attached.

  At least some of the ends of the warp metal wires 30 or the weft metal wires 20 are formed in a lump shape. A lump 40 is formed. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 2, in the metal fabric 10 of the present embodiment, the bulk portions 40 are formed at both ends of the total number of the warp metal wires 30 and the weft metal wires 20. By forming the ends of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 in a lump shape in this way, when the metal fabric 10 is folded and used with a finger like origami, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire are used. The tip of 20 can be prevented from being caught by a finger. Further, for example, the lump portion 40 is present in the warp metal wire 30 so that the weft metal wire 20 is separated from the warp metal wire 30 by the lump portion 40. For this reason, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are prevented from detaching from the metal fabric 10 apart from each other without being subjected to a coating treatment for preventing unraveling along the edge of the metal fabric 10.

  The diameter of the block 40 is equal to or greater than the diameters of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20. The upper limit of the diameter of the lump portion 40 is equal to or smaller than the line interval between the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 so as not to interfere with the lump portion 40 in the other adjacent warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20. . Here, the line interval is the axial center interval between adjacent warp metal wires 30 (or weft metal wires 20). In particular, in the metal fabric 10 of the present embodiment, the diameter of the lump tip is larger than the average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 and not more than 4 times the wire diameter. As a result, the above-described effect of preventing the tips of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 from being caught by the finger is sufficiently exerted, and the overall thickness of the metal fabric 10 is prevented from becoming excessive. .

  In producing the metal fabric 10 of the present embodiment, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are plain woven with a loom to produce an original fabric, and then cut into a square shape with a laser cutter. By applying heat energy to the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 by irradiating a laser, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are melted, thereby causing the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire to melt. A lump 40 is formed at the tip of the line 20. In addition, after the plain-woven original fabric is cut into a square with a metal blade of an automatic cutting machine, the block 40 may be formed by heating or laser irradiation along the cut edge.

  According to the metal fabric 10 of the present embodiment, various decorative items (not shown) are provided by bending the metal fabric 10. In addition to accessories used by attaching to the body, bag, hat, etc., the decorative article may be used by being placed indoors or wall-mounted. The shape of the ornament is not particularly limited, and may be a shape imitating a natural object such as a flower or an animal, a geometric shape, or other shapes. Further, a stationery such as a book cover or a brush case, or a container such as an accessory case may be provided by bending the metal fabric 10 instead of the decorative item.

  FIG. 3 is a plan view of the metal fabric 10 of the second embodiment. As shown in FIG. 3, the metal fabric 10 of this embodiment is stamped. The punching process referred to here is a process that allows the user to easily separate the punched portion 50 that is a part of the sheet-like metal fabric 10. That is, the metal fabric 10 may have a punched portion 50, and the punched portion 50 may be broken or removed to be separable from the surrounding metal fabric 10.

  Although the aspect of the punching part 50 is not specifically limited, For example, it is good to form the punching part 50 imitating a geometric shape or a character shape in one place or a plurality of places in the surface of the sheet-like metal fabric 10. 3 illustrates the formation of one star-shaped punched portion 50, but the shape, size, arrangement, and number of the punched portions 50 are arbitrary. The number of the punching portions 50 may be plural, for example, several or several tens. When a plurality of punched portions 50 are formed on the metal fabric 10, the punched portions 50 may have the same shape or different shapes. Further, the plurality of punched portions 50 may be arranged in a lattice shape or a zigzag shape, or may be arranged at irregular (random) positions. The outline 60 of the punched portion 50 is schematically indicated by a broken line in FIG. The outer edge of the punched portion 50 is drawn by a set of the leading ends (cutting points) of the cut warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20. The indicated line is referred to as an outline 60. That is, the outline 60 is a virtual line indicating the outer edge of the punched portion 50. FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of the partial region IV including a part of the outline 60 of the punched portion 50. In FIG. 4, the outline 60 is indicated by a two-dot chain line.

  The punching portion 50 is temporarily fastened to the metal fabric 10 after the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are cut on the entire circumference on the outer shape line 60 with the surrounding metal fabric 10. May be. Alternatively, the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 may be connected between the punched portion 50 and the surrounding metal fabric 10 in a partial length region on the outer shape line 60.

  FIG. 4 shows an aspect in which the punched portion 50 is partially connected to the surrounding metal fabric 10 by the connecting portion 52. That is, in the outer shape line 60 of the punched portion 50, at least one of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 and at least one of the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 is continuous. And a connection portion 52. The connecting portion 52 is a region where at least one of the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 is continuous between the inside and the outside of the punched portion 50, and the break portion 54 is the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal. This is a region where the line 20 is cut. When the user breaks the connecting portion 52, the punched portion 50 can be separated from the metal fabric 10.

  A fragile portion 56 may be formed in the connection portion 52. The weakened portion 56 is more than the other portions of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 to such an extent that the user can easily break the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 with a finger. This is a site where the breaking strength is lowered. The fragile portion 56 is preferably formed so as to extend along the outline 60 of the punched portion 50.

  The fragile portion 56 may be formed by performing a half cut in which the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 are cut to a halfway depth by a metal blade. Alternatively, the fragile portion 56 may be formed by irradiating the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 with a laser cutter. The laser irradiation intensity when the weakened portion 56 is formed on the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 using a laser cutter is higher than the laser irradiation intensity when the metal fabric 10 is cut out from the original fabric as described above. Should be lower. By irradiating the laser weakly or only for a short time, a part of the thickness of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is melted to a state just before the fusing, or the warp metal wire 30 and the weft The fragile portion 56 is formed by deteriorating the metal material of the metal wire 20 for use.

  In place of the embodiment of FIG. 4, the rupture portion 54 is not formed, the entire circumference of the outer shape line 60 of the punched portion 50 is made the connection portion 52, and the fragile portion 56 is formed over the entire length of the outer shape line 60. May be. That is, the outline 60 of the punched portion 50 may be connected to the surrounding metal fabric 10 over the entire circumference, and the fragile portion 56 may be formed in a circular shape along the outline 60.

  The breaking portion 54 can be formed by breaking the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 with a metal blade or a laser cutter. FIG. 4 shows a mode in which the ends of the warp metal wire 30 or the weft metal wire 20 located at the breaking portion 54 are formed in a lump shape. The lump portion 40 can be formed at the tip by fusing the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 using a laser cutter at the break portion 54. By forming the lump portion 40 at the tips of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 at the break portion 54, the finger can be prevented from being caught by the punched portion 50.

  When the punched portion 50 is formed by a laser cutter, the laser irradiation intensity is kept constant, and when the fracture portion 54 is formed, the laser irradiation time for the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is increased. In the case where the fragile portion 56 is formed, the laser irradiation time for the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 may be shorter than the above. In other words, the relative feed rate of the metal fabric 10 with respect to the laser may be increased at the weakened portion 56 and slower at the broken portion 54. Thereby, the punching part 50 which includes the fracture | rupture part 54 and the weak part 56 in the outline 60 can be created by a series of laser irradiation.

  The punched part 50 separated from the metal fabric 10 can be used in various forms such as figurines and ornaments as it is or after being further bent. By forming a plurality of, for example, several tens of punched portions 50 in the metal fabric 10, the numerous punched portions 50 can be easily separated from the metal fabric 10 and obtained. Moreover, the surrounding metal fabric 10 from which the punching part 50 has been separated may be used as origami, or may be used for the purpose of further bending to create various decorative items, stationery or containers. By bending the metal fabric 10 from which the punched portion 50 has been separated to create an ornament or the like, a sheet-like metal fabric 10 or a decorative product having a unique pattern in which the portion of the punched portion 50 is punched into a window shape Can be obtained.

  FIG. 5 is a plan view of a long metal fabric 11 according to the third embodiment. FIG. 6 is a plan view of a rectangular (specifically, square) metal fabric 10 obtained by cutting the long metal fabric 11 of the third embodiment along the breaking line BL. The fracture line BL is a cutting line virtually provided on the metal fabric 11.

  As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, embroidery 70 is applied to the metal fabrics 10 and 11 of the present embodiment. Since the metal fabric 10 has the embroidery 70, the metal fabric 10 and an article obtained by bending the metal fabric 10 can be given high design properties, and the corner portions bent as described later are reinforced by the embroidery 70. can do. The long metal fabric 11 is provided with a large number of embroidery 70 at positions that do not overlap the breaking line BL. In other words, the metal fabric 10 is produced by cutting the metal fabric 11 between the embroidery 70. This prevents the embroidery 70 from being damaged or frayed when the metal fabric 11 is cut. Therefore, one or a plurality of embroidery 70 is applied to the cut metal fabric 10 in the inner region of the metal fabric 10 excluding the peripheral edge 12.

  When the embroidery 70 is applied to the metal fabric 11, the embroidery thread is sewn to the metal fabric 11 using an embroidery needle. As the embroidery needle, a ball point needle may be used so as not to damage the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20.

The embroidery 70 is composed of an embroidery thread having a larger wire diameter and a lower Young's modulus than the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20. That is, the average wire diameter of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 is 0.03 mm or more and 0.09 mm or less, and the Young's modulus is 60 GPa or more and 220 GPa or less. The wire diameter is 0.1 mm or more. As the embroidery thread, a metal wire having a Young's modulus lower than that of the metal wire 30 for warp and the metal wire 20 for weft may be used in addition to a handicraft yarn such as molding or mohair or a yarn made of plastic material. More specifically, the embroidery 70 and the metal fabric 10 excellent in design can be obtained by using a dyed yarn such as a cocoon yarn or a yarn having a metallic luster such as a lame yarn or a sequin yarn. In addition, silk threads and nylon threads can be used widely as embroidery threads.
The upper limit of the wire diameter of the embroidery thread is not particularly limited, but a thick thread of about 0.8 mm or less can be used when a twisted thread or a metal twisted line is used. In the case of an embroidery thread of wool, the wire diameter can be about 5 mm or less. By using the above embroidery thread, the ease of folding the metal fabric 10 as origami is not impaired.

The embroidery 70 may be provided only on one side of the metal fabrics 10 and 11, or may be provided on both sides.
The embroidery 70 may be formed in a single layer to have a planar structure, or may be formed in multiple layers to have a three-dimensional structure.

  By bending the metal fabric 10 shown in FIG. 6, a decorative article, a stationery, and a container having an embroidery 70 can be created. As a container, it can be set as the box shape which has a corner part. As a method of manufacturing a box-shaped container having such a corner portion, the embroidery 70 may be arranged at the corner portion by bending the metal fabric 10 along a plurality of fold lines FL passing through the embroidery 70. When a box-shaped container is produced by bending the metal fabric 10 shown in FIG. 6, a central portion surrounded by a plurality of (four in FIG. 6) embroidery 70 becomes a bottom portion 72 of the container, and the four corners of the bottom portion 72 are formed. The embroidery 70 is arranged on each. In this way, since the embroidery 70 is arranged at the corner portion by bending the metal fabric 10 with a plurality of fold lines FL that pass through the embroidery 70 and intersect with each other, the corner portion of the metal fabric 10 is reinforced by the embroidery 70. can do.

  The metal fabric 10 having the embroidery 70 can be used for various purposes in addition to origami, decorations, stationery, and containers. As an example, as a material for curtains or blinds, as a clothing material such as clothing, as a patchwork material, as a toy, as a craft use as a handicraft, as a material for accessories, and as a material for filtration such as a filter Can be used. When used as a filter, the embroidery 70 may be applied to the entire central portion of the metal fabric 10 used for filtration. Thereby, a filter having a multilayer structure including a metal mesh layer (first layer) composed of the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20 and a second layer composed of the embroidery 70 can be obtained. .

As a modification of the third embodiment, a cloth member made of a cloth material may be sewn on the metal fabric 10 instead of the embroidery 70 or in addition to the embroidery 70. That is, a cloth member such as a patch may be appliqué sewn using the metal fabric 10 as a base cloth. The weaving yarn constituting the fabric material preferably has a lower Young's modulus than the warp metal wire 30 and the weft metal wire 20, and the fabric member preferably has a lower bending rigidity than the metal fabric 10.
The cloth member is preferably a small piece having a smaller area than the metal fabric 10. A plurality of cloth members may be sewn to the metal fabric 10 so as to be separated from each other and to an inner region excluding the peripheral edge portion 12 of the metal fabric 10. Accordingly, the corner portion formed by bending the metal fabric 10 according to the present modification is formed similarly to the case where the corner portion formed by bending the metal fabric 10 in the third embodiment is reinforced by the embroidery 70. It can be reinforced by a cloth member.
That is, as a method for manufacturing a box-shaped container having a corner portion, the metal fabric 10 to which one or more cloth members are sewn is bent by a plurality of fold lines passing through the cloth members. The cloth member may be disposed in the corner portion.
