Description

本考案は、電子装置外殻に関する。 The present invention relates to an outer shell of an electronic device.

電子装置の外殻は、プラスチック基材の表面に硬化処理を施したものがほとんどである。プラスチック素材は、通常、質感が薄っぺらで、透明なものが多く、視覚的に優れているとはいえない。このため、プラスチック製の電子装置外殻にさまざまな加工を施して、装飾効果を高めるのが一般的である。
その一例として、電子装置外殻の表面に印刷層を接着剤により接合し、さらにその表面を被覆層で覆って、文字や模様を表示したものがある。
しかし、このような電子装置外殻は、プラスチック基材の表面が平面で、さらにこれに被覆する被覆層の表面も平面なので立体感に欠ける。
また、外殻の表面に模様、文字、又は図案を表示してあっても、平面的であるため立体感を生み出す効果は無い。 Most outer shells of electronic devices are obtained by applying a curing treatment to the surface of a plastic substrate. Plastic materials are usually thin in texture, often transparent, and are not visually superior. For this reason, it is common to enhance the decorative effect by applying various processes to the outer shell of the plastic electronic device.
As an example, a printed layer is bonded to the surface of an outer shell of an electronic device with an adhesive, and the surface is covered with a coating layer to display characters and patterns.
However, such an outer shell of an electronic device lacks a three-dimensional effect because the surface of the plastic substrate is flat and the surface of the coating layer covering the plastic substrate is also flat.
Even if a pattern, characters, or design is displayed on the surface of the outer shell, it is flat and has no effect of creating a three-dimensional effect.

本考案が解決しようとする課題は、立体感のある表面を有し、視覚的に優れた電子装置外殻を提供することにある。 The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an electronic device outer shell that has a three-dimensional surface and is visually superior.

本考案の電子装置外殻は、プラスチックを素材とするベース材の表面に被覆層を設け、該被覆層の表面に凸部形成部分を示す立体区域を形成してある。
立体区域を残して被覆層を除去することにより、ベース材の表面に凹凸を形成する。
前記ベース材には硬化処理を施してあることが多い。
前記被覆層には射出成形、スクリーン印刷、凸版印刷又は凹版印刷により前記立体区域を形成することがある。
前記被覆層は紫外線（ＵＶ）遮断塗膜であっても、透明皮膜であっても、染色皮膜であっても良い。
前記立体区域は、遮光性或いは透光性のある素材で、商標、模様、文字、図案又はこれらの組み合わせを表示するものであっても良い。 In the outer shell of the electronic device of the present invention, a coating layer is provided on the surface of a base material made of plastic, and a three-dimensional area indicating a convex portion forming portion is formed on the surface of the coating layer.
Unevenness is formed on the surface of the base material by removing the coating layer leaving a three-dimensional area.
The base material is often subjected to a curing treatment.
The three-dimensional area may be formed on the coating layer by injection molding, screen printing, letterpress printing or intaglio printing.
The coating layer may be an ultraviolet (UV) blocking coating, a transparent coating, or a dyed coating.
The three-dimensional area may be a light-shielding or translucent material that displays a trademark, a pattern, characters, a design, or a combination thereof.

本考案によれば、立体区域の部分を残して被覆層を除去することにより、外殻の仕上げ面に凹凸が形成されるので、外観が立体的となり、優れた視覚的効果が得られると共に、特別な識別性を持たせることができる。 According to the present invention, by removing the covering layer while leaving a part of the three-dimensional area, the unevenness is formed on the finished surface of the outer shell, so that the appearance becomes three-dimensional and an excellent visual effect is obtained, Special discriminability can be given.

図１〜図３は、本考案の実施例１を示す。
図１及び図３に示すように、電子装置１の外殻２は、硬化処理を施したプラスチックを素材とするベース材３の表面に、接着剤３１を介して印刷層３２を設け、さらにその表面に離型材３３を介して被覆層３４を設け、被覆層３４の表面に凸部形成部分を示す立体区域３４１を形成して成る。
電子装置１としては、ノートブック型或いはデスクトップ型のパーソナルコンピュータ、マウス、キーボード等のコンピュータ周辺装置、スピーカー、ネットワークカメラ、モバイル通信装置、ハンドヘルド型電子装置、デジタルカメラ、家庭用電気機器、有線電話、テレビ、デジタルテレビ等の情報家電がある。 1 to 3 show a first embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the outer shell 2 of the electronic device 1 is provided with a printed layer 32 via an adhesive 31 on the surface of a base material 3 made of a hardened plastic material, A coating layer 34 is provided on the surface via a release material 33, and a three-dimensional area 341 indicating a convex portion forming portion is formed on the surface of the coating layer 34.
The electronic device 1 includes notebook or desktop personal computers, computer peripheral devices such as a mouse and a keyboard, speakers, network cameras, mobile communication devices, handheld electronic devices, digital cameras, household electric appliances, wired telephones, There are information appliances such as TV and digital TV.

被覆層３４は、ＵＶ遮断塗膜、透明皮膜、或いは陽極染色処理によって形成した染色皮膜である。
被覆層３４をＵＶ遮断塗膜とすると、ＵＶによるベース材３の劣化を防ぐことができる。また、被覆層３４を透明皮膜とすると、ベース材３を保護すると共に、印刷層３２を外観に見せることができる。被覆層３４を染色皮膜とすると、ベース材３を保護し、外殻２の表面を多様な色彩とすることが可能である。
立体区域３４１は射出成形、スクリーン印刷、凸版印刷又は凹版印刷により形成され、遮光性或いは透光性のある素材で、商標、模様、文字、図案又はこれらの組み合わせを表示するものとする。本実施例では、複数の文字の形状を除いた部分を立体区域３４１としてある。 The coating layer 34 is a UV blocking coating, a transparent coating, or a dyed coating formed by an anodic dyeing process.
When the coating layer 34 is a UV blocking coating film, the deterioration of the base material 3 due to UV can be prevented. Moreover, when the coating layer 34 is a transparent film, the base material 3 can be protected and the printed layer 32 can be shown in appearance. When the coating layer 34 is a dyed film, the base material 3 can be protected, and the surface of the outer shell 2 can have various colors.
The three-dimensional area 341 is formed by injection molding, screen printing, letterpress printing, or intaglio printing, and is a light-shielding or translucent material, and displays a trademark, a pattern, characters, a design, or a combination thereof. In this embodiment, a portion excluding the shape of a plurality of characters is set as a three-dimensional area 341.

電子装置１の外殻２を完成品とするには、図２に示すように、立体区域３４１の部分を残して被覆層３４を離型剤３３から剥がし、被覆層３４に凹凸を形成する。本実施例の場合、複数の文字の形状に被覆層３４が除去されて凹部が形成され、その他の部分（立体区域３４１の部分）が凸部となる。
なお、その後、立体区域３４１及び被覆層３４を除去した部分の表面に透明保護表層を形成し、被覆層３４の凹凸によって透明保護表層の表面を立体的に仕上げることもできる。 In order to make the outer shell 2 of the electronic device 1 as a finished product, as shown in FIG. 2, the coating layer 34 is peeled off from the release agent 33, leaving a portion of the three-dimensional area 341, and irregularities are formed in the coating layer 34. In the case of the present embodiment, the covering layer 34 is removed in the shape of a plurality of characters to form a concave portion, and the other portion (the portion of the three-dimensional area 341) becomes a convex portion.
In addition, after that, a transparent protective surface layer can be formed on the surface of the part from which the three-dimensional area 341 and the coating layer 34 are removed, and the surface of the transparent protective surface layer can be three-dimensionally finished by the unevenness of the coating layer 34.
