Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、転写テ−プの塗膜を紙面等に転写する転写具に関し、さらに詳しくは、押圧作動により転写テ−プの塗膜を転写することのできる転写具に関する。
【０００２】
【従来技術】
従来より、離型性を有する紙やフィルム等の基材上に修正剤や粘着剤、着色剤等の塗膜を設け、テ−プ状に加工し、紙面等の被転写物に修正剤、粘着剤、着色剤を圧着移動し転写する転写具は知られている。
【０００３】
前記転写具は主として一端部にヘッドを備えた本体内に、供給リ−ル、巻取リ−ルとが回転可能に配設され、供給リ−ルに巻装した転写テ−プが該ヘッド先端部を経由して折り返し、該折り返し部を紙面等の被転写物に押し当てた状態で移動させることにより、テ−プ基材上の修正剤や粘着剤等の塗膜を紙面に転写するものが一般的であった。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかし、こうした構造では、移動に対してヘッドを密着させるため、本体角度や移動方向の直進性が要求され、特に所定箇所のみに塗膜を転写し、余分な部分に塗膜が転写するのを防止する場合は、転写する移動距離を厳密に設定する必要があるため、前記構造では作業性に問題があった。
【０００５】
本発明の目的は、確実に転写することができ、さらに所定箇所のみの転写を容易にできる転写具を簡単な構造で提供することである。
【０００６】
【課題を解決する手段】
本発明は前記目的を達成するために、本体に、基材の片面に塗膜を設けた転写テ−プを巻き付けた供給リ−ルと、使用済のテ−プを収納する収納手段と、前記転写テ−プの塗膜を転写する少なくとも一部を弾性体で形成したヘッドを有し、少なくとも転写時には前記ヘッドの少なくとも一部が本体より突出して被転写面の転写箇所に当接して押圧作動による圧縮変形することで、前記転写テ−プの塗膜を被転写面に転写する転写具であって、転写時に前記ヘッドを本体内方向へ移動可能及び復帰可能に配設して、前記ヘッドに連接した駆動軸を連動させ、前記ヘッドの復帰時に使用済のテ−プを収納する収納手段を駆動させるよう設けた構成とする。
【０００８】
また、前記ヘッドの転写面が略平地状からなる構成とする。
【０００９】
【発明の実施の形態】
ヘッドの形状は、筒状、柱状等、転写面が略平地状である形状を適宜選択すればよい。押圧作動により転写するため転写面が転写箇所となるので、所定箇所のみに塗膜を転写して余分な部分に塗膜が転写するのを防止することができる。
【００１０】
弾性体の材質は、エラストマ−（スチレン系、オレフィン系、エステル系、ニトリル系、ウレタン系、塩化ビニ−ル系等）、シリコ−ンゴム、その他合成ゴム、天然ゴム、コルク等の木質片等、公知である弾性体を適宜選択すればよい。また、ヘッドの少なくとも一部を弾性体で形成することにより、被転写面に多少の凹凸を生じている場合、または転写角度を厳密に設定しなくても押圧作動によって弾性体が圧縮変形することにより確実に塗膜を転写することができる。
【００１１】
また前記ヘッドは、少なくとも一部が弾性体のヘッドのみを配設してもよいし、ヘッド自体をヘッドの転写面に対し略垂直方向に移動可能および復帰可能に配設してもよい。前記配設方法としては、例えばヘッド一端部にスプリングを設けるなど、押圧力を加えるとヘッドが移動し、押圧力が無くなると元の場所に戻るように配設する公知な方法等を用いることができる。その結果、上記弾性体の圧縮変形に加えてヘッド自体の移動により、さらに被転写面の凹凸を吸収したり、押圧力の設定を容易にするので好ましい。また、前記ヘッドの移動および弾性体の圧縮変形に連動して使用済のテ−プを収納する収納手段を駆動させることができる。該ヘッドの移動および弾性体の圧縮変形により収納手段を駆動させることによりテ−プの送り量が一定になるので好ましい。
【００１２】
収納手段には、テ−プを挟み込んで送り出す方法や巻取リ−ル等によりテ−プを巻取る方法等、公知な使用済みのテ−プを収納する収納手段を用いることができる。
【００１３】
ヘッドを押圧作動させる押圧方法は、転写具本体を押圧してもよいし、押圧部等を設けるなど、ヘッドが本体より突出した状態で押圧力が加わる方法を適宜選択すればよい。少なくともヘッドを本体より突出した状態で、被転写面の転写箇所にヘッドの転写面を当接させるので転写テ−プが当接する状態を目視で確認することができるため、所定箇所の転写を容易に確実に転写することができる。さらに、転写時にヘッドが本体より突出していれば、例えばノック式のように、未使用時にヘッドが本体内に収納されているようなものでも本発明の転写方法および転写具に使用できる。
【００１４】
押圧作動により転写テ−プにたるみが生じるため、板バネ等によりテ−プに張りを持たせる方法や収納手段に常時、力が加わるような方法等、テ−プのたるみを防止する公知な方法を適宜選択して設けることができる。
【００１５】
供給リ−ルと収納部材を互いに連動させることにより、押圧作動による転写に加えて、ヘッドを被転写面に押し当てた状態で被転写面と平行に移動させて転写テ−プの塗膜を転写することもできる。
【００１６】
供給リ−ルおよび／または収納手段の逆回転防止のための機構、例えば、正回転では係止せず逆回転のみに係止する係止部および係止爪による機構等、公知である逆回転防止のための機構を適宜選択して設けることができる。回転防止機構を設けることにより、誤って転写方向と反対に圧縮移動した場合でもリ−ルが回転することが無いので好ましい。
【００１７】
転写テ−プの基材には、コンデンサ−紙、グラシン紙等の紙基材やポリエステルフィルム、セルロ−スフィルム、アセテ−トフィルム、ポリエチレンフィルム、ポリプロピレンフィルム、ポリイミドフィルム、ポリエチレンナフタレ−トフィルム等のプラスチック基材等、既に公知である基材を適宜選択すればよい。また、基材の片面に設ける塗膜も基材に合わせて、修正剤、粘着剤、着色剤等を適宜選択すればよい。
【００１８】
また、基材と塗膜の間に離型層を設けても良いし、基材自体を離型処理しても良い。さらには最外層に粘着層を設けるなど、基材と塗膜以外に他の機能を持った層を設けることができる等、公知の転写具に用いている転写テ−プを使用することができる。
【００１９】
本体には透明または不透明なもののどちらを用いてもよいが、作業性を考慮すると透明なもののほうが、テ−プの残量や作業場所の確認が容易にできるので好ましい。
【００２０】
【実施例】
本発明の実施例を図面を用いて説明する。
図１、２に示す第１の実施例における転写具１は、本体２内に配設した支柱７、８に離型処理を施したポリエステルフィルムからなる基材に白色の修正塗料層の転写層６ａを形成し、さらにその上に加圧接着性を有するアクリル系の粘着剤層を有する転写テ−プ６を巻装した供給リ−ル３と、転写後の転写テ−プ６を収納する巻取リ−ル４を回転自在に支持するとともに、ウレタン系エラストマ−からなる四角柱状のヘッド５をヘッド保持部材５ｃに配設し、本体２の先端から突出するように突設し、ヘッド保持部材５ｃの一端部と本体２に固着されたスプリング保持部材１０ａ間にスプリング１０を配設し、ヘッド５を移動可能および復帰可能に配設してなる修正具である。また、テ−プのたるみ防止として板バネ１８を本体２内に配設している。
【００２１】
供給リ−ル３の逆回転防止のためにラチェット等の機構を使用することができるが、本実施例では、本体内壁に係止部（図示せず）を設け、供給リ−ルに前記係止部に係脱可能な係止爪（図示せず）を設ける。前記係止部と係止爪は供給リ−ルの供給方向（時計回り）には係止せず、反対方向のみに係止するように構成する。
【００２２】
転写テ−プ６は、ガイドピン９により誘導され供給リ−ル３から繰り出し、ヘッド５の転写面５ａを通過して、さらにガイドピン１９により誘導され、巻取リ−ル４に経由している。
【００２３】
転写時にはヘッド５の略平地状の転写面５ａを被転写面１１の転写箇所に当接し、本体２を被転写面方向（矢印Ａ１方向）に押圧することにより本体２および巻取リ−ル４は下降（矢印Ａ１方向）する。同時にヘッド５にも押圧力が加わりヘッド５を圧縮変形させて修正塗料層の転写層６ａは粘着剤層により基材より剥離して被転写面１１に転写する。この時、本体２を多少傾けて押圧しても弾性体の変形で吸収でき、被転写面に対してほぼ垂直方向の押圧力となる。また、ヘッド５および駆動軸１２も前記押圧力を受け、転写面５ａに対し略垂直方向（矢印Ｂ１方向）に相対的に移動する。
【００２４】
駆動軸１２の一端部にはバネ性を持たせたバネ部１３ａを設け、さらにバネ部１３ａの一端部には爪部１３を設ける。本体２を押圧した時には、駆動軸１２と一体となる爪部１３と巻取リ−ル４のギア４ａとの関係は順方向となるため両者間においては噛合が行われず、爪部１３はバネ部１３ａの撓みによって巻取リ−ル４のギア４ａを乗り越えて移動する。押圧力が無くなると弾性体の変形が元に戻るのと同時にスプリング１０により、本体２および巻取リ−ル４が上昇（矢印Ｂ１方向）するので、巻取リ−ル４に設けたギア４ａに噛合して巻取リ−ル４を回転（時計回り）させ使用済みの転写テ−プ６を巻き取る。すなわち、爪部１３は巻取リ−ル４が巻き上げ方向のみ噛合する。前記転写テ−プの巻き取りによりテ−プが移動して、供給リ−ル３から未使用の転写テ−プ６が搬送され、ヘッド５の転写面５ａには常に未使用の転写テ−プが搬送される。
【００２５】
従来の供給リ−ルと巻取リ−ルが本体内で同一面上に並設してあるものについては、供給リ−ルに巻装した転写テ−プの移動により供給リ−ルが回転し、その回転力を巻取リ−ルへ伝達して使用済みの転写テ−プを巻き取るため、ギアをテ−プ径より大きくする必要があるため本体が大きくなりデザインの自由度が少なくなってしまうが、上記構成によりギアをテ−プ径より大きくする必要がないため、デザインの自由度が向上するので好ましい。
【００２６】
図３、図４に示す第２の実施例における転写具２１は、本体２２内に配設した支柱２７に離型処理を施したポリエステルフィルムからなる基材に白色の修正塗料層の転写層２６ａを形成し、さらにその上に加圧接着性を有するアクリル系の粘着剤層を有する転写テ−プ２６を巻装した供給リ−ル２３を回転自在に支持するとともに、四角柱状のヘッド２５をヘッド保持部材２５ｃに配設して、本体２２の先端から突出するように突設し、ヘッド２５の先端部をオレフィン系エラストマ−からなる転写部材２５ｂで形成する。ヘッド保持部材２５ｃの一端部とスプリング保持部材２０ａ間にスプリング２０を配設し、ヘッド２５を移動可能および復帰可能に配設してなる修正具である。また、テ−プのたるみ防止として板バネ２８を本体２２内に配設している。
【００２７】
供給リ−ル２３の逆回転防止のために実施例１と同様に本体内壁に係止部（図示せず）を設け、供給リ−ル２３に前記係止部に係脱可能な係止爪（図示せず）を設ける。前記係止部と係止爪は供給リ−ルの供給方向（時計回り）には係止せず、反対方向のみに係止するように構成する。
【００２８】
転写テ−プ２６は、供給リ−ル２３から繰り出し、ガイドピン２９により誘導され、ヘッド２５の転写面２５ａを経由しギア３４、３５を有する挟部材１６、１７により収納室１５に送り出される。本体に使用後の転写テ−プを収容する収容室１５を設けることにより、従来必要であった巻取リ−ルが必要でなくなるため、デザインの自由度が向上するので好ましい。
【００２９】
転写時には実施例１と同様にヘッド２５の略平地状の転写面２５ａを被転写面３１の転写箇所に当接し、本体２２を被転写面方向（矢印Ａ２方向）に押圧することにより本体２２および挟部材１６、１７は下降（矢印Ａ２方向）する。同時にヘッド２５にも押圧力が加わりヘッド２５の転写部材２５ｂを変形させて転写テ−プ２６の修正塗料層の転写層２６ａは粘着剤層により基材より剥離して被転写面３１に転写する。この時、本体２２を多少傾けて押圧しても弾性体の転写部材２５ｂの変形で吸収でき、被転写面に対してほぼ垂直方向（矢印Ａ２方向）の押圧力となる。また、ヘッド２５および駆動軸３２も前記押圧力を受け、転写面２５ａに対し略垂直方向（矢印Ｂ２方向）に相対的に移動する。
【００３０】
駆動軸３２の一端部にはバネ性を持たせたバネ部３３ａを設け、さらにバネ部３３ａの一端部には爪部３３を設ける。本体２２を押圧した時には、駆動軸３２と一体となる爪部３３と巻取リ−ル２４のギア２４ａとの関係は順方向となるため両者間においては噛合が行われず、爪部３３はバネ部３３ａの撓みによって巻取リ−ル２４のギア２４ａを乗り越えて移動する。爪部３３は押圧力が無くなると弾性体が元に戻るのと同時にスプリング２０により、本体２２および挟部材１６が上昇（矢印Ｂ２方向）するので、挟部材１６に設けたギア３４に噛合して挟部材１６を回転（時計回り）させる。また、挟部材１６の回転に伴いギア３４、３５が噛合して、挟部材１７を回転（反時計回り）させ使用済みの転写テ−プ２６を挟み込み収納室１５に送り出す。すなわち、爪部３３は挟部材１６の送り出し方向のみ噛合する。また、挟部材１６、１７を設けることにより、転写テ−プ２６の送り量が一定になるので好ましい。前記使用済のテ−プの送り出しにより転写テ−プが移動して、供給リ−ル２３から未使用の転写テ−プ２６が搬送されヘッドの転写面２５ａには常に未使用の転写テ−プが搬送される。
【００３１】
図５、図６、図７に示す第３の実施例における転写具４１は、本体４２内に配設した支柱４７、４８に離型処理を施したポリエステルフィルムからなる基材に白色の修正塗料層の転写層を形成し、さらにその上に加圧接着性を有するアクリル系の粘着剤層を有する転写テ−プ４６を巻装した供給リ−ル４３および巻取リ−ル４４を回転自在に支持するとともに、両リ−ルに設けたギア５４、５５により互いに連動可能に配設してなる修正具である。
【００３２】
四角柱状のオレフィン系エラストマ−からなるヘッド４５をヘッド保持部材４５ｃに配設し本体４２の先端から突出するように突設する。
【００３３】
供給リ−ル４３の逆回転防止のために実施例１と同様に本体内壁に係止部（図示せず）を設け、供給リ−ル２３に前記係止部に係脱可能な係止爪（図示せず）を設ける。前記係止部と係止爪は供給リ−ルの供給方向（時計回り）には係止せず、反対方向のみに係止するように構成する。
【００３４】
転写テ−プ４６は、ギア５４を有する供給リ−ル４３から繰り出し、ガイドピン４９、５０により誘導され、ヘッド４５の転写面４５ａを経由しギア５５を有する巻取リ−ル４４により巻き取られる。
【００３５】
転写時には実施例１、２と同様にヘッド４５の略平地状の転写面４５ａを被転写面５１の転写箇所に当接し、本体４２を被転写面方向（矢印Ａ３方向）に押圧する。同時にヘッド４５にも押圧力が加わりヘッド４５を圧縮変形させて転写テ−プ４６の修正塗料層の転写層（図示せず）は粘着剤層により基材より剥離して被転写面５１に転写する。
【００３６】
転写後、本体４２に巻取リ−ル４４のギア５６に噛合する、撓み可能な押棒５８を設けた巻上げノブ５７を、スプリング５７ａを撓ませて押す（矢印Ｅ方向）ことにより、押棒５８の一端部に設けた爪部５８ａが巻取リ−ル４４に設けたギア５６に噛合して巻取リ−ル４４を回転（時計回り）させ転写テ−プ４６を巻取る。巻き上げ後、押棒５８はスプリング５７ａの復帰力で復元するが、押棒５８の爪部５８ａとギア５６は矢印Ｅ方向のみの噛合となり、逆方向は押棒の撓みによってギア５６との噛合が逃げて巻取リ−ルは回転しない。巻上げノブを押して所定の長さ分を巻上げるので、繰返し押圧転写することができる。
【００３７】
また、供給リ−ル４３と巻取リ−ル４４がギア５４、５５により連動しているため、本体４２を傾斜させてヘッド４５の略平地状の転写面４５ａの角部を被転写面５１の転写箇所に当接し、本体４２を被転写面方向（矢印Ａ３方向）に押圧し、ヘッド４５を圧縮変形させ、その後、被転写面に対し平行（矢印Ｃ方向）に移動させることにより塗膜を転写面に転写することもできる。
【００３８】
前記転写時に、ヘッド４５を折返し移動する転写テ−プ４６により供給リ−ル４３が回転（反時計回り）して、供給リ−ル４３に設けたギア５４が巻取リ−ル４４に設けたギア５５に噛合することにより巻取リ−ル４４を回転させて、転写後のテ−プ４６を巻取る。この時、転写テ−プの移動量は一定であるのに対し、供給リ−ル４３のテ−プ外径と巻取リ−ル４４のテ−プ外径との比は、経時的に変化する。すなわち、供給リ−ルのテ−プ外径が経時的に小さくなるのに対し、巻取リ−ルのテ−プ外径は大きくなる。
【００３９】
このため、巻取リ−ル４４の巻取速度が供給リ−ル４３の供給速度より経時的に速くなっていくので両リ−ルの回転速度は同期しなくなるため、供給リ−ル４３に加わる回転トルクも次第に大きくなっていく。
【００４０】
供給リ−ル４３は、ギア５４を有する回転部材４３ａとテ−プを巻装した供給部材４３ｂとからなり、回転部材４３ａと供給部材４３ｂ間に摩擦部材４３ｃを装着する。前記回転トルクが摩擦部材４３ｃの摩擦力を上回ることにより、供給部材４３ｂが滑り回転するので供給速度と巻取速度を同期することができる。尚、供給速度と巻取速度を同期させる手段は、前記した機構の手段のみではなく、公知である供給リ−ルと巻取リ−ルの回転速度を同期させる手段を適宜選択して用いることが出来る。
【００４１】
上記実施例の転写具に用いたテ−プは特に限定されるものではなく、公知である転写具に用いるテ−プを適宜選択することができ、さらに他の機能を持ったテ−プを用いることにより粘着具、修正具、着色具等の様々な転写具に使用できることは言うまでもない。
【００４２】
【発明の効果】
本発明の転写具は、前述した構成なので、確実で所定箇所のみの転写を容易にできる転写具を簡単な構造で提供することできる利点がある。また、本体を多少傾斜して押圧しても、弾性体により吸収できるので確実な押圧力を与えることができる。また、構造によっては、押圧作動による押圧転写とともに被転写面に対し平行に移動させた転写を併せて行うことができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a transfer tool for transferring a coating film of a transfer tape onto a paper surface or the like, and more particularly to a transfer tool capable of transferring a coating film of a transfer tape by a pressing operation.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a coating film such as a correction agent, an adhesive, or a colorant is provided on a substrate such as paper or film having releasability, processed into a tape shape, and the correction agent is applied to an object to be transferred such as paper. A transfer tool for transferring an adhesive and a colorant by pressure bonding is known.
[0003]
The transfer tool is mainly provided in a main body having a head at one end thereof, and a supply reel and a winding reel are rotatably arranged, and the transfer tape wound around the supply reel is the head. Folds through the tip, and moves the folded part against the transfer object such as paper, thereby transferring the coating film such as a correction agent or adhesive on the tape substrate to the paper. Things were common.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in such a structure, the head is in close contact with the movement, so that the body angle and the straight direction of the movement direction are required, and in particular, the coating film is transferred only to a predetermined portion, and the coating film is transferred to an extra portion. In order to prevent this, it is necessary to set the moving distance to be transferred strictly, so that the structure has a problem in workability.
[0005]
An object of the present invention is to provide a transfer tool that can transfer reliably and can easily transfer only a predetermined portion with a simple structure.
[0006]
[Means for solving the problems]
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a main body, a supply reel in which a transfer tape provided with a coating film is provided on one side of a base material, and storage means for storing used tape, At least a part of the transfer tape coated film is formed of an elastic body, and at least at the time of transfer, at least a part of the head protrudes from the main body and abuts against a transfer portion on the transfer surface to be pressed. A transfer tool for transferring the coating film of the transfer tape to the transfer surface by compressing and deforming by operation , wherein the head is arranged to be movable and returnable in the body during transfer, The drive shaft connected to the head is interlocked so that the storage means for storing the used tape is driven when the head is returned .
[0008]
Further, the transfer surface of the head has a substantially flat ground shape.
[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The shape of the head may be appropriately selected as a cylindrical shape, a columnar shape, or the like with a transfer surface that is substantially flat. Since the transfer surface becomes a transfer location because the transfer is performed by the pressing operation, it is possible to prevent the coating film from being transferred to an excessive portion by transferring the coating film only to a predetermined location.
[0010]
The elastic material is made of elastomer (styrene, olefin, ester, nitrile, urethane, vinyl chloride, etc.), silicone rubber, other synthetic rubber, natural rubber, wood chips such as cork, etc. A known elastic body may be appropriately selected. In addition, by forming at least a part of the head with an elastic body, the elastic body is compressed and deformed by the pressing operation even if there is some unevenness on the transfer surface or the transfer angle is not set strictly. Thus, the coating film can be transferred reliably.
[0011]
The head may be provided with at least a part of an elastic body, or the head itself may be arranged so as to be movable and returnable in a direction substantially perpendicular to the transfer surface of the head. As the arrangement method, for example, a known method for arranging the head so that the head moves when a pressing force is applied and returns to the original position when the pressing force disappears, such as providing a spring at one end of the head, is used. it can. As a result, in addition to the compression deformation of the elastic body, the movement of the head itself further absorbs irregularities on the transfer surface and facilitates the setting of the pressing force. The storage means for storing the used tape can be driven in conjunction with the movement of the head and the compression deformation of the elastic body. It is preferable because the tape feed amount becomes constant by driving the storage means by moving the head and compressing and deforming the elastic body.
[0012]
As the storage means, known storage means for storing used tapes, such as a method of sandwiching and feeding the tape and a method of winding the tape with a winding reel or the like, can be used.
[0013]
As a pressing method for pressing the head, a method of applying a pressing force in a state where the head protrudes from the main body may be selected as appropriate, such as pressing the transfer tool main body or providing a pressing portion. At least with the head protruding from the main body, the transfer surface of the head is brought into contact with the transfer location on the transfer surface, so that the state where the transfer tape is in contact can be visually confirmed, making it easy to transfer at a predetermined location. Can be reliably transferred. Further, if the head protrudes from the main body at the time of transfer, for example, a knock type in which the head is accommodated in the main body when not in use can be used for the transfer method and transfer tool of the present invention.
[0014]
Since the tape is slackened by the pressing operation, a known method for preventing tape slack, such as a method of applying tension to the tape by a leaf spring or a method of constantly applying force to the storage means, etc. A method can be appropriately selected and provided.
[0015]
By linking the supply reel and the storage member to each other, in addition to the transfer by pressing operation, the head is pressed against the transfer surface and moved parallel to the transfer surface to transfer the coating film on the transfer tape. It can also be transcribed.
[0016]
Well-known reverse rotation prevention mechanism such as a mechanism for preventing reverse rotation of the supply reel and / or the storage means, for example, a mechanism using a locking portion and a locking claw that locks only in reverse rotation without locking in forward rotation A mechanism for the above can be selected and provided as appropriate. Providing a rotation prevention mechanism is preferable because the reel will not rotate even if it is accidentally compressed and moved in the direction opposite to the transfer direction.
[0017]
The base material of the transfer tape is a paper base material such as condenser paper or glassine paper, polyester film, cellulose film, acetate film, polyethylene film, polypropylene film, polyimide film, polyethylene naphthalate film, etc. An already known substrate such as a plastic substrate may be appropriately selected. In addition, a coating film provided on one side of the base material may be appropriately selected from a correction agent, a pressure-sensitive adhesive, a colorant and the like in accordance with the base material.
[0018]
Further, a release layer may be provided between the substrate and the coating film, or the substrate itself may be subjected to a release treatment. Furthermore, a transfer tape used for a known transfer tool can be used, such as providing an adhesive layer as the outermost layer, or providing a layer having other functions in addition to the base material and the coating film. .
[0019]
Either a transparent body or an opaque body may be used for the main body, but in view of workability, a transparent body is preferable because the remaining amount of the tape and the working place can be easily confirmed.
[0020]
【Example】
Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
The transfer tool 1 in the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 is a transfer layer of a white correction paint layer on a base material made of a polyester film in which a support 7 and 8 disposed in a main body 2 is subjected to a release treatment. 6a is formed, and the supply tape 3 on which the transfer tape 6 having an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having pressure adhesiveness is further wound, and the transfer tape 6 after transfer are accommodated. The winding reel 4 is rotatably supported, and a square columnar head 5 made of urethane elastomer is disposed on the head holding member 5c, and protrudes from the front end of the main body 2 to hold the head. This is a correction tool in which a spring 10 is arranged between one end of a member 5c and a spring holding member 10a fixed to the main body 2, and the head 5 is arranged to be movable and returnable.

[0022]
The transfer tape 6 is guided by the guide pin 9 and fed out from the supply reel 3, passes through the transfer surface 5 a of the head 5, is further guided by the guide pin 19, and passes through the winding reel 4. Yes.
[0023]
At the time of transfer, the substantially flat transfer surface 5a of the head 5 is brought into contact with the transfer portion of the transfer surface 11, and the main body 2 and the winding reel 4 are pressed by pressing the main body 2 in the transfer surface direction (arrow A1 direction). Descends (arrow A1 direction). At the same time, pressing force is applied to the head 5 to compress and deform the head 5, and the transfer layer 6a of the correction paint layer is peeled off from the base material by the adhesive layer and transferred to the transfer surface 11. At this time, even if the main body 2 is pressed slightly tilted, it can be absorbed by the deformation of the elastic body, and the pressing force is almost perpendicular to the transfer surface. The head 5 and the drive shaft 12 also receive the pressing force and move relative to the transfer surface 5a in a substantially vertical direction (arrow B1 direction).
[0024]
One end portion of the drive shaft 12 is provided with a spring portion 13a having a spring property, and a claw portion 13 is provided at one end portion of the spring portion 13a. When the main body 2 is pressed, the relationship between the claw 13 integrated with the drive shaft 12 and the gear 4a of the winding reel 4 is in the forward direction, so that they are not engaged with each other, and the claw 13 is a spring. It moves over the gear 4a of the winding reel 4 due to the bending of the portion 13a. When the pressing force is lost, the deformation of the elastic body is restored, and at the same time, the main body 2 and the winding reel 4 are raised (in the direction of the arrow B1) by the spring 10, so that the gear 4a provided on the winding reel 4 And the winding reel 4 is rotated (clockwise) to wind up the used transfer tape 6. That is, the claw portion 13 is engaged with the winding reel 4 only in the winding direction. The tape is moved by the winding of the transfer tape, the unused transfer tape 6 is conveyed from the supply reel 3, and the unused transfer tape is always transferred to the transfer surface 5a of the head 5. Is transported.
[0025]
In the case where the conventional supply reel and the winding reel are arranged on the same surface in the main body, the supply reel is rotated by the movement of the transfer tape wound around the supply reel. However, since the rotational force is transmitted to the take-up reel and the used transfer tape is taken up, the gear needs to be larger than the tape diameter, so the main body becomes larger and the degree of freedom in design is reduced. However, it is not necessary to make the gear larger than the tape diameter according to the above configuration, which is preferable because the degree of freedom in design is improved.
[0026]
The transfer tool 21 in the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 has a transfer layer 26a of a white correction paint layer on a base material made of a polyester film in which a support 27 arranged in the main body 22 is subjected to a release treatment. Further, a supply reel 23 around which a transfer tape 26 having an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having pressure adhesiveness is wound is rotatably supported, and a square columnar head 25 is provided. The head holding member 25c is disposed so as to protrude from the tip of the main body 22, and the tip of the head 25 is formed by a transfer member 25b made of an olefin elastomer. This is a correction tool in which the spring 20 is disposed between one end portion of the head holding member 25c and the spring holding member 20a, and the head 25 is arranged to be movable and returnable. Further, a leaf spring 28 is disposed in the main body 22 to prevent the tape from sagging.
[0027]
In order to prevent the reverse rotation of the supply reel 23, a locking portion (not shown) is provided on the inner wall of the main body in the same manner as in the first embodiment. (Not shown). The locking portion and the locking claw are configured not to be locked in the supply direction (clockwise) of the supply reel but to be locked only in the opposite direction.
[0028]
The transfer tape 26 is fed out from the supply reel 23, guided by the guide pin 29, and sent out to the storage chamber 15 through the transfer surface 25 a of the head 25 by the pinching members 16 and 17 having gears 34 and 35. Providing the storage chamber 15 for storing the used transfer tape in the main body eliminates the need for the take-up reel, which has been required in the past, and thus improves the degree of freedom in design, which is preferable.
[0029]
At the time of transfer, as in the first embodiment, the substantially flat transfer surface 25a of the head 25 is brought into contact with the transfer location of the transfer surface 31, and the main body 22 is pressed in the direction of the transfer surface (arrow A2 direction). The sandwiching members 16 and 17 descend (in the direction of arrow A2). At the same time, the pressing force is applied to the head 25 to deform the transfer member 25b of the head 25, and the transfer layer 26a of the correction paint layer of the transfer tape 26 is peeled off from the base material by the adhesive layer and transferred to the transfer surface 31. . At this time, even if the main body 22 is pressed at a slight angle, it can be absorbed by the deformation of the elastic transfer member 25b, resulting in a pressing force in a direction substantially perpendicular to the transfer surface (arrow A2 direction). The head 25 and the drive shaft 32 also receive the pressing force and move relative to the transfer surface 25a in a substantially vertical direction (arrow B2 direction).
[0030]
One end portion of the drive shaft 32 is provided with a spring portion 33a having a spring property, and a claw portion 33 is provided at one end portion of the spring portion 33a. When the main body 22 is pressed, the relationship between the claw 33 integrated with the drive shaft 32 and the gear 24a of the take-up reel 24 is in the forward direction, so that they are not meshed, and the claw 33 is a spring. It moves over the gear 24a of the winding reel 24 by the bending of the portion 33a. When the pressing force disappears, the elastic body returns to the original position and the spring 20 raises the main body 22 and the pinching member 16 (in the direction of arrow B2), so that the claw portion 33 meshes with the gear 34 provided on the pinching member 16. The pinching member 16 is rotated (clockwise). Further, the gears 34 and 35 are meshed with the rotation of the pinching member 16, and the pinching member 17 is rotated (counterclockwise), and the used transfer tape 26 is pinched and sent out to the storage chamber 15. That is, the claw portion 33 meshes only with the feeding direction of the pinching member 16. Further, it is preferable to provide the holding members 16 and 17 because the feeding amount of the transfer tape 26 becomes constant. When the used tape is sent out, the transfer tape is moved, and the unused transfer tape 26 is conveyed from the supply reel 23 and is always transferred to the transfer surface 25a of the head. Is transported.
[0031]
The transfer tool 41 in the third embodiment shown in FIGS. 5, 6, and 7 is a white correction paint on a base material made of a polyester film in which a support 47, 48 disposed in a main body 42 is subjected to a release treatment. A supply reel 43 and a winding reel 44 each having a transfer tape 46 on which an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having pressure adhesiveness is further wound are formed. And a correction tool which is arranged so as to be interlocked with each other by gears 54 and 55 provided on both reels.
[0032]
A head 45 made of a rectangular column-shaped olefin elastomer is disposed on the head holding member 45 c so as to protrude from the tip of the main body 42.
[0033]
In order to prevent reverse rotation of the supply reel 43, a locking portion (not shown) is provided on the inner wall of the main body in the same manner as in the first embodiment. (Not shown). The locking portion and the locking claw are configured not to be locked in the supply direction (clockwise) of the supply reel but to be locked only in the opposite direction.
[0034]
The transfer tape 46 is fed out from a supply reel 43 having a gear 54, guided by guide pins 49 and 50, and taken up by a take-up reel 44 having a gear 55 via a transfer surface 45 a of the head 45. It is done.
[0035]
At the time of transfer, as in the first and second embodiments, the substantially flat transfer surface 45a of the head 45 is brought into contact with the transfer portion of the transfer surface 51, and the main body 42 is pressed in the transfer surface direction (arrow A3 direction). At the same time, pressure is applied to the head 45 to compress and deform the head 45, and the transfer layer (not shown) of the correction paint layer of the transfer tape 46 is peeled off from the base material by the adhesive layer and transferred to the transfer surface 51. To do.
[0036]
After the transfer, the winding knob 57 provided with a deflectable push rod 58 that meshes with the gear 56 of the take-up reel 44 on the main body 42 is pushed by bending the spring 57a (in the direction of arrow E). A claw portion 58 a provided at one end meshes with a gear 56 provided on the winding reel 44 to rotate (clockwise) the winding reel 44 and wind up the transfer tape 46. After the winding, the push rod 58 is restored by the restoring force of the spring 57a, but the claw portion 58a of the push rod 58 and the gear 56 are engaged only in the direction of arrow E, and in the opposite direction, the engagement with the gear 56 escapes due to the deflection of the push rod. The release reel does not rotate. Since the winding knob is pushed to wind up a predetermined length, repeated press transfer can be performed.
[0037]
Further, since the supply reel 43 and the take-up reel 44 are interlocked by gears 54 and 55, the main body 42 is inclined so that the corner portion of the substantially flat transfer surface 45 a of the head 45 is transferred to the transfer target surface 51. The coating film is pressed by pressing the main body 42 in the direction of the transfer surface (arrow A3 direction), compressing and deforming the head 45, and then moving parallel to the transfer surface (arrow C direction). Can also be transferred to the transfer surface.
[0038]
At the time of the transfer, the supply reel 43 is rotated (counterclockwise) by the transfer tape 46 that moves the head 45 back, and the gear 54 provided on the supply reel 43 is provided on the take-up reel 44. The take-up reel 44 is rotated by meshing with the gear 55 and the tape 46 after transfer is taken up. At this time, the amount of movement of the transfer tape is constant, whereas the ratio of the tape outer diameter of the supply reel 43 to the tape outer diameter of the take-up reel 44 is time-dependent. Change. That is, the tape outer diameter of the supply reel decreases with time, whereas the tape outer diameter of the take-up reel increases.
[0039]
For this reason, since the winding speed of the winding reel 44 becomes higher with time than the supply speed of the supply reel 43, the rotational speeds of both reels are not synchronized. The applied rotational torque gradually increases.
[0040]
The supply reel 43 includes a rotation member 43a having a gear 54 and a supply member 43b wound with a tape, and a friction member 43c is mounted between the rotation member 43a and the supply member 43b. When the rotational torque exceeds the frictional force of the friction member 43c, the supply member 43b slides and rotates so that the supply speed and the winding speed can be synchronized. The means for synchronizing the supply speed and the take-up speed is not limited to the above-mentioned means of the mechanism, and a known means for synchronizing the rotation speeds of the supply reel and the take-up reel is appropriately selected and used. I can do it.
[0041]
The tape used for the transfer tool of the above embodiment is not particularly limited, and a tape used for a known transfer tool can be selected as appropriate, and a tape having other functions can be selected. Needless to say, it can be used for various transfer tools such as adhesives, correction tools, and coloring tools.
[0042]
【The invention's effect】
Since the transfer tool of the present invention has the above-described configuration, there is an advantage that a transfer tool that can surely and easily transfer only a predetermined portion can be provided with a simple structure. Moreover, even if the main body is pressed with a slight inclination, it can be absorbed by the elastic body, so that a reliable pressing force can be applied. In addition, depending on the structure, it is possible to perform transfer that is moved parallel to the surface to be transferred together with press transfer by pressing operation.
