[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a glitter decoration for forming an emblem or the like of a vehicle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a vehicle, in particular, an automobile, a glitter decoration such as an emblem is provided on a body of the vehicle to indicate a manufacturer name, a vehicle name, and a vehicle class. Such a brilliant decoration is important in expressing the individuality of the vehicle, and therefore must have excellent aesthetics and quality.

[0003] For this reason, a description will be given of, for example, a rear garnish of a vehicle body as a brilliant decorative body. A metal foil made of chrome is adhered to the raised portion by a hot stamp, and the metal foil is covered with a light-transmitting color protective layer, a so-called color clear coat.

According to the rear garnish described above, the radiance of the metal of the metal foil and the color of the color clear coat itself are synthesized to give the emblem a color metallic feeling such as a titanium color, and the appearance is excellent. It will be.

[0005]

However, in the above-described conventional rear garnish, that is, the glittering decorative body, when the film thickness of the color clear coat becomes non-uniform, the color tone of the emblem itself, that is, its color tone becomes uniform. And its aesthetic appearance and quality are reduced. Usually, the color clear coat is also formed on the periphery of the raised portion. However, since the base material of the rear panel is exposed as it is on the periphery of the raised portion, the rear panel itself is not used. And the color of the color clear coat itself will be mixed, and the outline of the emblem will be blurred.

The present invention has been made based on the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object of the invention is to provide a glittering decorative body which can make color tone simple and uniform, and improve its aesthetic appearance and quality. is there.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A glittering decorative body according to the present invention is a decorative embossed portion embossed on the surface of a base.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Referring to FIG. 1, the rear of a motor vehicle is shown. The rear bumper 1 and trunk lid 2
The rear garnish 3 is provided between the rear garnish 3 and rear combination lamps 4 are arranged on both sides of the rear garnish 3, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 2, the rear garnish 3 includes a panel 5 as a base made of a synthetic resin,
The panel 5 is made of a luminous decorative body formed on the surface of the panel 5, that is, a decorative product such as an emblem. In the illustrated embodiment, the letter M is drawn as a decorative item on the panel 5. However, in practice, the name of the maker, the name of the car, the type of car, and the like are designed and drawn.

More specifically, as shown in FIG.
On the surface of the panel 5, an embossed portion 6 in the shape of M is integrally formed, and a chrome foil 7 is adhered to the surface of the embossed portion 6 by hot stamping. The chrome foil 7 also has an M-shape like the raised portion 6, and the chrome foil 7 includes a chromium metal layer 8 and an adhesive layer 9 for bonding the metal layer 8 to the surface of the raised portion 6. It consists of

On the surface of the chrome foil 7, a first color protective layer, that is, a first color clear coat 10 is applied and formed. 11 is applied, the first color clear coat 10 is covered with the second color clear coat 11. In the case of this embodiment, the second color clear coat 11 is, as apparent from FIG.
The periphery of the raised portion 6 is also covered.

First and second color clear coats 10, 1
1 are colored in the same color, but their light transmittances are different from each other. That is, if the light transmittances of the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 are α and β, α is 10
% To 60%, whereas β is 7
It is set to 0% to 85%. Therefore, the second color clear coat 11 has a higher light transmittance than the first color clear coat 10.

In this embodiment, the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 have the compositions shown in Table 1.

[0015]

[Table 1]

As is clear from Table 1, the first color clear coat 10 has excellent adhesion to the chromium foil 7 because the main component is a polyester-based urethane resin, while the second color clear coat 10 has a high adhesion. The color clear coat 11 is excellent in weather resistance because it is mainly composed of an acrylic urethane resin. According to the glitter decoration of the rear garnish 3 described above, since the chrome foil 7 is covered by the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11, the color emitted from the glitter decoration is the metal color of the chrome foil 7. That is, the first and second color clear coats 10,
It becomes a color metallic with 11 colors added.

Since the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 have different light transmittances α and β, the light incident on the glittering decorative body, as shown in FIG. Since the reflected light colored to the density of the part is emitted by proceeding from the inside of the two-color clear coat 11 to the inside of the first color clear coat 10, the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 emit the reflected light. It is possible to obtain reflected light in which the color density changes continuously. Therefore, it is possible to give a rich feeling to the color tone of the color metallic in the glittering decorative body, and the appearance is excellent.

The first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 described above have a problem that even if there are non-uniform portions in their film thicknesses, this problem is caused by the color density of the reflected light. By changing continuously, that is, by compensating for the richness of the color tone, the color can be made uniform. Further, also in this embodiment, since the periphery of the raised portion 6 is covered with the second color clear coat 11, the periphery of the raised portion 6 can be seen through the second color clear coat 11. The light transmittance β of the second color clear coat 11 is as large as 70% to 85%, so that the color of the periphery of the raised portion 6, that is, the color of the panel 5 itself is impaired. The colors of the two-color clear coat 11 do not greatly mix. Therefore, the outline of the glittering decorative body made of color metallic is sharpened, the design appearance is further improved, and the quality can be improved.

This invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible. For example, the compositions of the first and second color clear coats 10 and 11 are not limited to those shown in Table 1, but may be appropriately selected from the viewpoint of the design of the emblem.
No.

Further, in one embodiment, the rear garnish is taken as an example, but the present invention can be applied to all decorative articles inside and outside the vehicle body.

[0021]

As described above, according to the glittering decorative body of the present invention, the surface of the raised portion protruding from the surface of the base body.
A metal layer is formed on the surface, and a first layer is formed on the surface of the metal layer .
And by sequentially stacking providing the second color protective layer, and, since the light transmittance of the second color protective layer is made larger than that of the first color protective layer, of the first and second color protective layer it is present if uneven places in the film thickness might give some color metallic effect of uniform, and depth to bright decorations. In addition, the periphery of the raised portion has a light transmittance
It ’s covered only by the big second color protection layer
The second color is preserved in the reflected light reflected at the periphery of the raised portion.
The color of the protective layer does not mix greatly,
The outline of the part becomes clear, and it is possible to improve the beauty and quality of the glittering decorative body .
