Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention belongs to the technical field of a coating film transfer tool for press-transferring a character correction coating film, an adhesive pressure-sensitive adhesive coating film for adhesion, a decorative coating film, etc. onto a transfer surface, and in particular, transfers the coating film. It belongs to the technical field of a coating film transfer tool having a transfer head cover for protecting a transfer tape on a transfer pressing portion.

Generally, a coating film transfer tool transfers a coating film such as a pressure-sensitive adhesive or a correction ink applied to the outer surface of a tape, which is wound around a transfer head protruding from a case portion, to a transfer surface such as paper. It is like this. Therefore, the coating film is exposed to the outside, and the coating film is easily damaged when not in use, and dust is easily attached.

In order to prevent the damage of the coating film and the adhesion of dust, a cover that can be slid on the outer peripheral surface of the cassette as in Patent Documents 1 and 2 has been conventionally provided, and the coating film hung around the transfer head when not in use A film transfer tool for protection, a film transfer tool provided with a detachable protection cap for covering the transfer head as in Patent Document 3, and a protective cover as in Patent Document 4 around the spindle on the outer circumference of the cassette. A coating film transfer tool has been proposed which is rotatably provided on the transfer head and protects the coating film of the tape wound around the transfer head when not in use.

However, a plate-shaped transfer head cover that slides on the outer peripheral surface of the cassette of Patent Document 1 to cover the coating film on the transfer head, and a tip portion of the same cassette of Patent Document 2 that slides to cover the periphery of the transfer head. None of the cylindrical transfer head covers was able to cover the front of the transfer head tip, and it was not sufficient to protect the coating film or prevent dust from adhering to the coating film.

The plate-shaped transfer head cover that rotates around the spindle on the outer periphery of the cassette of Patent Document 4 and covers the coating film on the transfer head jumps out from the outer surface of the coating film transfer tool when opened, and thus the transfer surface is difficult to see. In some cases, a finger accidentally touched the coating film surface of the tape near the transfer head when opening and closing, the coating film peeled off, or the coating film was damaged.

Further, the removable transfer head cap described in Patent Document 3 can be manufactured to have a shape that completely covers the transfer head, but the removed cap itself may be lost.

As a means for solving such a problem, a coating film transfer tool X of Patent Document 5 has been proposed. The coating film transfer tool X has a pair of opposed transfer head covers that are slidably provided, and the transfer head covers are combined to cover the transfer head at a position where the transfer head covers are forward in the transfer head direction. To do. In the coating film transfer tool X, since the pair of transfer head covers are combined to cover the transfer head, it is possible to have a shape that also covers the front part of the transfer head tip portion, and the transfer head cover is not removed from the coating film transfer tool. The transfer head cover is never lost.

Further, in the coating film transfer tool X, a structure in which one of the pair of transfer head covers is slid and the other is interlocked with each other is also proposed. Therefore, it is possible to open and close the transfer head covers reliably by moving one of the transfer head covers without separately moving the transfer head covers.

In the coating film transfer tool X, a link mechanism or a cam mechanism is used as an interlocking mechanism for interlocking the pair of transfer head covers. However, when the interlocking mechanism is manufactured by the link mechanism or the cam mechanism, there is a problem that the durability and the movement of the pair of transfer head covers are deviated. In order to interlock the pair of transfer head covers, it is necessary that the moving transfer head covers push the other transfer head cover so that both transfer head covers move simultaneously. For that purpose, the moving transfer head cover and the other transfer head cover need to slide.

However, if a transfer head cover made of a molded product or the like is frequently slid, there is a problem in that the sliding surface is scraped and it cannot slide smoothly. Further, in order to smoothly slide the pair of transfer head covers, it is necessary to provide a minimum necessary amount of “rattle” on the sliding surface. However, when one of the transfer head covers is moved forward in the transfer head direction, this “rattle” has an effect, and the other transfer head cover does not move forward, resulting in a gap between the transfer head covers. The problem due to this "rattle" becomes more remarkable when the sliding surface is scraped as described above. In order to solve these problems, it is necessary to install parts such as bearings that reduce friction and rotation resistance on the sliding surface or rotating part of the interlocking mechanism, or apply a lubricant to improve sliding. Conceivable. However, when parts such as bearings are incorporated, the number of parts increases and the mechanism becomes complicated, and when a lubricant is used, another problem occurs such that the lubricant leaks and the transfer tape and the user's hands are soiled.

As a solution to the problem of the transfer head cover of the coating film transfer tool X, the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6 has been proposed. In Patent Document 6, a cassette case having an opening for holding a feeding portion and a winding portion of a transfer tape and projecting a transfer pressing portion (transfer head) for transferring a coating film to the outside, and a pair of facing thin plate portions. There has been proposed a coating film transfer tool including a moving case integrally provided with. In the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6, the movable case is movable between the first position and the second position in the cassette case, and by moving the movable case from the second position to the first position, a pair of The opposing thin plate portions project from the opening, one of the pair of opposing thin plate portions covers the transfer tape before transferring the coating film on the transfer pressing portion, and the other thin plate portion is the base material after transferring the coating film. The tape is covered, and a pair of opposed thin plate portions are arranged close to each other in front of the transfer pressing portion.

In the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6, the transfer head cover having such a structure has excellent durability and smoothness compared with the coating film transfer tool X without using a complicated mechanism or a lubricant. It is possible to provide a pair of interlocking transfer head covers that can be opened and closed.

However, although the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6 can have a simpler structure than the coating film transfer tool X, there is a problem that the entire coating film transfer tool becomes large by providing the transfer head cover. Particularly in a small-sized coating film transfer tool, the provision of the transfer head cover causes a problem that the coating film transfer tool becomes very large as compared with a cassette without the transfer head cover.

In the coating film transfer tool A, the coating film is transferred from the transfer tape T when the coating film transfer tool A is moved while pressing the transfer tape T against the transfer surface such as paper at the tip of the transfer head 4. The transfer tape T is paid out from the pay-out core 2 while being transferred to. When the transfer tape T is fed from the feeding core 2, the feeding core 2 rotates, and the belt 7 wound around the pulley of the feeding core 2 also moves with the rotation of the pulley. As the belt 7 moves, the rotation of the feeding core 2 is transmitted to the winding core 3, and the winding core 3 rotates. By the rotation transmitted by the pulley, the winding core 3 winds up the remaining transfer tape T on which the coating film has been transferred by the transfer head 4, and the transfer tape T runs without slack. In the coating film transfer tool A, the length of the transfer tape T wound by the winding core 3 is set to be longer than that of the transfer tape T fed from the feeding core 2, so that the transfer tape is not loosened. .. Further, since the difference between the winding length and the unwinding length of the transfer tape T is absorbed by the pulley of the winding core 3 and the belt 7 slipping, the transfer tape T is not pulled and cut.

FIG. 2 shows the shape of the transfer head cover 1 alone. FIG. 2A is a view when the transfer head cover 1 is set on the lower case 5 and the upper case 6 of the coating film transfer tool A, as viewed from the direction of the inner surface side of the coating film transfer tool A. 2B and 2C are a bottom view and a rear view, respectively, when FIG. 2A is a front view. In the transfer head cover 1, a front cover 1A that covers the tip of the transfer head 4 is integrally provided on a slide plate 1B that slides with respect to the lower case 5 and the upper case 6. The front cover 1A covers the front of the front end of the transfer head 4 when the transfer head cover 1 slides forward. In order to prevent the transfer head cover 1 from becoming large, it is preferable that the front cover 1A projects from the slide plate 1B at a substantially right angle. The transfer head cover 1 preferably has a symmetrical shape with respect to the center line shown in FIG.

The slide plate 1B is provided with two support shafts 1BA and two slide shafts 1BB. It is preferable that the two support shafts 1BA and the two sliding shafts 1BB are provided symmetrically with respect to the center line. The transfer head cover 1 is attached to the lower case 5 by inserting one of each of the support shaft 1BA and the sliding shaft 1BB into the sliding groove 5A provided in the lower case 5 shown in FIG. When the transfer head cover 1 is attached to the lower case 5, as shown in FIG. 1, the front cover 1A is on the transfer head 4 side, and the front cover 1A projects toward the transfer head 4 direction.

A groove 6A is provided. By mounting the upper case 6 on the lower case 5 having the transfer head cover 1 mounted thereon, the other support shaft 1BA and the sliding shaft 1BB are inserted into the sliding groove 6A.

The outer diameters of the spindle 1BA and the sliding shaft 1BB are slightly smaller than the widths of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A, and the spindle 1BA and the sliding shaft 1BB can move while sliding in the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, the transfer head cover 1 can slide along the sliding grooves 5A and 6A.

As shown in FIG. 2, the rear end portion of the slide plate 1B provided with the sliding shaft 1BB is separated into two end portions and the central portion where the sliding shaft 1BB is provided by the two slits, and only the central portion is provided. Further, when the transfer head cover 1 is attached to the lower case 5, there is provided a protrusion 1BC that protrudes toward the inside of the lower case 5. Hereinafter, with respect to the sliding direction of the transfer head cover 1 and the shape of the transfer head cover, the front cover side is the front and the protruding portion 1BC side is the rear.

In FIG. 1, the transfer head cover 1 is at the rear, the transfer head 4 is not protected by the transfer head cover 1, and the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 is engaged with the engaging shaft 5B of the lower case 5 and the upper case. The transfer head cover 1 is engaged with the shaft 6B and is temporarily fixed to the rear side. FIG. 3 is a front view showing a state in which the upper case 6 of the coating film transfer tool A in which the transfer head cover 1 is moved forward from the state of FIG. 1 is removed. In order to move the transfer head cover 1 from the state of FIG. 1 to the state of FIG. 3, the sliding shaft 1BB needs to ride over the engaging shafts 5B and 6B. Since the rear end portion of the transfer head cover 1 provided with the sliding shaft 1BB is divided into three by the slit as described above, the portion provided with the sliding shaft 1BB is independent of other portions of the transfer head cover 1. Can be elastically deformed. Therefore, in the coating film transfer tool A, by adjusting the elasticity of the portion of the transfer head cover 1 where the sliding shaft 1BB is provided, the coating film transfer tool A can be moved from the state of FIG. Alternatively, the state of FIG. 3 can be changed to the state of FIG. 1, and the transfer head cover 1 is in the state of FIG. 1 while the coating film is being transferred using the coating film transfer tool A in the state of FIG. It does not disturb the user's transfer of the coating film by moving from abruptly.

In the coating film transfer tool A, protrusions having a substantially triangular cross section are provided on both front and rear sides of the support shaft 1BA of the transfer head cover 1. When the transfer head cover 1 is mounted on the coating film transfer tool A, the substantially triangular projections project outward. This shape is a shape provided by the user so as to serve as a finger hook portion 1C when the transfer head cover 1 is moved to the front and rear sides and to be easily moved. The shape of the finger hook portion 1C is not limited to the shape of the present embodiment, and may be any shape as long as it makes it easy to hook the finger on the transfer head cover 1. The user can easily move the transfer head cover 1 from the state of FIG. 1 to the state of FIG. 3 by putting a finger on the finger hook portion 1C and pushing the transfer head cover 1 forward. Therefore, in the coating film transfer tool A, the user does not accidentally touch the transfer head 4 because the user moves the transfer head cover 1, and the coating film may be peeled off or damaged by touching the coating film surface of the tape. Nor. Further, in the coating film transfer tool A, the transfer head cover 1 is of a type that slides and is composed of only one slide plate 1B and a front cover 1A protruding from the slide plate 1B toward the inside of the case. Therefore, by providing the transfer head cover 1, there is no fear that the transfer surface becomes difficult to see during use, and the coating film transfer tool does not become large.

While the transfer head cover 1 is moving from the state of FIG. 1 to the state of FIG. 3, the coating film transfer tool A includes the lower case 5 and/or the lower case 5 so that the protrusion 1BC of the transfer head cover 1 does not interfere with other parts. Alternatively, no wall is provided at a portion of the upper case 6 that interferes with the protrusion 1BC. On the other hand, while the transfer head cover 1 is moving from the state of FIG. 1 to the state of FIG. 3, both the sliding shaft 1BB and the support shaft 1BA are prevented from coming off the sliding grooves 5A and 6A and the upper case 5 and the upper case 5A. The case 6 moves while being sandwiched in the sliding grooves 5A, 6A.

When the transfer head cover 1 is moved further to the front side than in the state of FIG. 3, in the coating film transfer tool A, the walls 5C and/or 6C that interfere with the protrusions 1BC of the transfer head cover 1 cause the lower case 5 and/or the lower case 5/ Alternatively, it is provided on the upper case 6. On the other hand, when the transfer head cover 1 is moved further forward than in the state of FIG. 3, the outer wall of the two walls forming the sliding groove 5A and the sliding groove 6A into which the sliding shaft 1BB is inserted. 5D and/or 6D disappear. When the transfer head cover is moved further forward than the state shown in FIG. 3, the coating film transfer tool A is brought into the state shown in FIG. 4, and the protrusion 1BC of the transfer head cover 1 is provided on the lower case 5 and/or the upper case 6. Ride on walls 5C and/or 6C. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, since the outer wall 5D and/or 6D of the two walls forming the sliding groove 5A and the sliding groove 6A in which the sliding shaft 1BB is inserted is eliminated, The sliding shaft 1BB can move toward the outside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6. Further, the protrusion 1BC is provided with the inclined surface 1BCA, and when the transfer head cover 1 is moved further forward than the state of FIG. 3 to bring the coating film transfer tool A into the state of FIG. The portion 1BC easily rides on the walls 5C and/or 6C provided on the lower case 5 and/or the upper case 6 along the inclined surface 1BCA. As a result, when the transfer head cover 1 is moved further to the front side than in the state of FIG. 3 and brought to the state of FIG. 4, the rear end portion of the transfer head cover 1 provided with the protrusion 1BC and the sliding shaft 1BB has a lower case. 5 and the upper case 6 move toward the outside.

In the process of further moving the transfer head cover 1 to the front side from the state of FIG. 3 to bring the coating film transfer tool A to the state of FIG. It is designed to slide between. Further, when the coating film transfer tool A is in the state of FIG. 4, there is an obstacle when the transfer head cover 1 moves toward the inside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6 in front of the support shaft 1BA of the transfer head cover 1. The transfer head cover 1 is movable until the engaging protrusion 1AA provided on the transfer head cover 1 engages with the engaging groove 4A provided on the transfer head 4 without any member. Therefore, by moving the transfer head cover 1 further to the front side than in the state of FIG. 3 to bring it to the state of FIG. 4, the rear end of the transfer head cover 1 is directed toward the outside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6. When it moves, the transfer head cover 1 rotates with the support shaft 1BA as the center of rotation. As the transfer head cover 1 rotates, the front side of the support shaft 1BA of the transfer head cover 1 moves toward the inside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6. By moving the front side of the support shaft 1BA of the transfer head cover 1 toward the inside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6, the front cover 1A provided at the front end of the transfer head cover 1 moves toward the transfer head 4. Then, the front of the tip of the transfer head 4 is covered, and the engagement protrusion 1AA provided on the transfer head cover 1 is engaged with the engagement groove 4A provided on the transfer head 4. Since the front cover 1A of the coating film transfer tool A has a shape capable of covering not only the front of the transfer head front end but also both sides, it is possible to more reliably cover and protect the transfer head front end. it can.

When the transfer head cover 1 changes from the state of FIG. 3 to the state of FIG. 4, the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 moves in front of the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, the transfer head cover 1 cannot move rearward due to the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, when the transfer head cover 1 is in the state shown in FIG. 4, the transfer head cover is fixed at the engaging groove 4A provided in the transfer head 4 and the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, even if the coating film transfer tool A is accidentally dropped from the transfer head cover 1 side, the transfer head cover 1 does not easily come off the transfer head 4.

When the coating film transfer tool A is in the state shown in FIG. 4, the user puts the finger on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1 so that the force is applied to the rear side of the support shaft 1BA. When pressed, the rear side of the transfer head cover 1 with respect to the support shaft 1BA is elastically deformed to have a shape as shown in FIG. Due to the elastic deformation of the transfer head cover 1, the sliding shaft 1BB moves to a portion without the walls 5D and/or 6D with which the sliding shaft 1BB interferes.

On the other hand, on the front side of the support shaft 1BA of the transfer head cover 1, the user places the transfer head cover 1 on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1 so that the force acts on the rear side of the support shaft 1BA. When pressed, it rotates about the support shaft 1BA, the front cover 1A no longer covers the tip of the transfer head 4, and the engagement protrusion 1AA of the front cover 1A and the engagement groove 4A of the transfer head 4 are released. To be done. In this way, the user puts his/her finger on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1 and presses the transfer head cover 1 so that a force acts on the rear side of the support shaft 1BA, whereby the sliding shaft 1BB interferes. Of the front cover 1A and the engagement groove 4A of the transfer head 4 are disengaged, and the front cover is slid when the slide plate 1B is slid. Since 1A is moved to a position where it does not interfere with the transfer head 4, the transfer head cover 1 can be slid backward.

When the transfer head cover 1 is moved rearward a little, the protrusions 1BC provided on the transfer head cover 1 interfere with the protrusions 1BC of the transfer head cover 1 provided on the lower case 5 and/or the upper case 6, and the walls 5C and/or Alternatively, the position where 6C does not exist is reached, and the elastic deformation of the transfer head cover 1 is eliminated. Since the elastic deformation of the transfer head cover is released, even if the pressing of the transfer head cover is released in this state, the portion of the transfer head cover 1 in front of the support shaft 1BA does not move to the transfer head 4 side.

When the transfer head cover 1 is moved further rearward, the transfer head cover 1 is elastically deformed so that the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 passes over the engaging shaft 5B of the lower case 5 and the engaging shaft 6B of the upper case, and the sliding shaft 1BB engages with the engagement shaft 5B and the engagement shaft 6B, and again, as shown in FIG. 1, the transfer head cover 1 is temporarily fixed to the rear side.
