Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention is building boards, metal plates, resin plates, wooden plates, manufacturing apparatus 及 pattern transfer member to transfer a plurality of transfer patterns on the surface of the transfer material such as an inorganic board
And the manufacturing method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a method of transferring and forming a transfer pattern on a surface of a transfer material such as a building material board, a metal plate, a resin plate, a wooden board, an inorganic board is provided with a release film on a transfer material (transfer sheet).
A method in which a peelable transfer paper with a print layer is closely contacted on it and the print layer is transferred to a transfer material together with a release film, or a special ink having a peelability is directly printed on the transfer sheet, and the printing is performed. It was based on the method of transferring the layer to the material to be transferred.

When the material to be transferred is in a single-wafer state, the material to be transferred is attached to the surface of the material to be transferred using a device such as a press or a laminator, and at the same time, it is heated and pressure-bonded.
The printing layer is transferred to the surface of the transfer material, and when the transfer material is in the winding state, printing on the back side of the transfer sheet 21 unwound from the unwind roller 20 as shown in FIG. Adhesive is applied to the surface, and the plate-shaped transfer material 22 is supplied between the pair of heating and pressure rolls 23 and 24.
Was heat-bonded between the pair of thermocompression-bonding rolls 23 and 24 at a predetermined temperature to transfer the printing layer onto the surface of the transfer-target material 22.

[0004]

However, in the conventional method of manufacturing a pattern transfer member, there is only one pattern (pattern) a transferred to the transfer material 22 as shown in FIG.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances. A first object of the present invention is to provide a plurality of types of patterns (patterns) transferred onto a material to be transferred. ,
It is an object of the present invention to provide an apparatus for manufacturing a pattern transfer member, which has a great utility value when the transferred material is used as a building material or the like.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing a pattern transfer member for transferring a plurality of types of patterns (patterns) onto a transfer material.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned first object, the apparatus for manufacturing a pattern transfer member according to the invention of claim 1 winds a transfer sheet having different transfer patterns of a pattern printing layer. A plurality of feeding rolls respectively provided in a take-out state, a sheet aligning roll that overlaps respective overlapping portions of the transfer sheet fed from the feeding roll, and respective overlapping portions via the sheet aligning rolls. A pair of thermocompression-bonding rolls for transferring the transferred pattern to the printing surface of the transfer material by bringing the pattern printing layer of the superimposed transfer sheets into contact with the printing surface of the transfer material and thermocompression bonding; And a means for feeding the material to be transferred, which feeds the material between the thermocompression-bonding rolls.

With such a construction, the plurality of transfer sheets are fed out, and the overlapping portions of the transfer sheets are superposed on each other in the sheet aligning roll and supplied between the pair of thermocompression-bonding rolls, and the transfer material feeding means is provided. The material to be transferred is sent between the thermocompression-bonding rolls by this, and the pattern printing layer of the transfer sheet is brought into contact with the printing surface of the material to be transferred between these thermocompression-bonding rolls, and heat transfer is performed at a predetermined temperature to perform transfer. .

For this reason, a plurality of patterns (patterns) are transferred to the material to be transferred, and especially when the material to be transferred is used as a building material or the like, its utility value is great.

In order to achieve the above first object, the apparatus for manufacturing a pattern transfer member according to the invention of claim 2 is
2. The pattern transfer member manufacturing apparatus according to claim 1, wherein, when a plurality of delivery rolls are vertically arranged, one side edge portion of the transfer sheet wound around the delivery roll located on the upper side is lower. An overlap portion is formed on the other side edge portion of the transfer sheet wound around the feeding roll located on the side.

With such a construction, not only the same effects as the effects of the first aspect of the present invention can be obtained, but the pattern printing layers in the respective overlapping portions of the transfer sheet have two overlapping pattern printing layers. Although transferred to the printing surface of the material to be transferred, since the lower pattern printing layer overlaps with the upper pattern printing layer, it does not appear on the transfer surface, but only the upper pattern printing layer appears. Therefore, since the shape of the side edge of the overlapping portion of the upper layer appears as it is, the creases of the adjacent transfer patterns can be finished neatly.

In order to achieve the above second object, the method of manufacturing a pattern transfer member according to the invention of claim 3 is
A plurality of transfer sheets unrolled from a state of being wound on a plurality of unrolling rolls are aligned on a sheet aligning roll, then supplied between a pair of heating and pressure bonding rolls, and fed between the heating and pressure bonding rolls by a conveying means. The pattern printing layer of the transfer sheet is brought into contact with the printing surface of the transfer target material, and heat transfer is performed at a predetermined temperature to perform transfer.

Therefore, there are a plurality of types of patterns (patterns) transferred to the transferred material, and especially when the transferred material is used as a building material or the like, its utility value is great.

In order to achieve the above second object, the method for manufacturing a pattern transfer member according to the invention of claim 4 is
In the method for manufacturing a pattern transfer member according to claim 3, in the sheet aligning roll, respective overlapping portions of the transfer sheet are overlapped.

Therefore, not only the same effect as the effect of the present invention of the third aspect can be obtained, but also the pattern printing layers of the respective overlapping portions of the transfer sheet are double-transferred by the overlapping pattern printing layers. Although transferred to the printing surface of the material, the lower pattern printing layer does not appear on the transfer surface because the lower pattern printing layer overlaps with the upper pattern printing layer, and only the upper pattern printing layer appears. Therefore, since the shape of the side edge of the overlapping portion of the upper layer appears as it is, the creases of the adjacent transfer patterns can be finished neatly.
