Description

The present invention relates to a method for producing a beautiful preserved flower product that can maintain the quality of fresh flowers .

  Preserved flower is an artificial flowering method that can make the most of the cuteness and softness of fresh flowers, and is well known as a method for maintaining fresh flowers for a long time. In recent years, techniques for further processing of preserved flowers have been developed.

  For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-57059 (Patent Document 1) discloses a technique of immersing a preserved flower in a phosphorescent agent or an alcohol solution of the fragrance in order to bring the preserved flower to a luminous property or fragrance.

  Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-70778 (Patent Document 2) discloses a method for producing a sweet pea artificial flower by disassembling a rose petal of a preserved flower and combining it with a wire.

  Furthermore, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-70779 (Patent Document 3) discloses a method for producing a poppy artificial flower by disassembling a rose petal of a preserved flower and combining it with a wire.

In this way, various studies have been conducted on preserved flowers. However, the preserved flower is obtained by coating a resin after drying fresh flowers. And generally, it is produced by dipping fresh flowers in resin as they are. For this reason, there is a portion that is not covered with resin, so that there is a problem of fading gradually. In addition, as the resin used for the preserved flour, alcohols or the like are used in order to maintain the shape for a long period of time (Japanese Patent No. 3813165, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-320945, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-203815, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-99605). issue). For this reason, although preserved flower can maintain a shape for a long period of time, there is a problem in that the pigment of the flower dissolves in this alcohol and fading occurs.

ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the manufacturing method of the beautiful preserved flower processed product which can maintain the quality of a fresh flower over a long period of time can be provided.

The method for producing a preserved flower processed product according to the first pattern of the present invention comprises: a step of separating a petal of a preserved flower having a certain flower shape; a step of forming a resin coating for each separated petal; and a resin coating And combining the petals that have been made to reproduce the shape of the original flower. FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a production example of a method for producing a preserved flower processed product. FIG. 1A shows a preserved flower before separation, FIG. 1B shows a preserved flower in which petals are separated, FIG. 1C shows a process of coating resin on each petal, and FIG. 1D reproduces the shape of the original flower. Show the state. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a preserved flower having a certain flower shape. Reference numeral 2 denotes a petal. Reference numeral 3 denotes a resin. The code | symbol 4 shows a preserved flower processed product. In the present invention, the preserved flower is dared to be in the state of each petal, and then the resin coating is performed, and then recombined to form a petal. By doing so, it is possible to obtain a beautiful preserved flower processed product that can maintain the quality of fresh flowers over a long period of time.

  Preserved flowers are known and can be appropriately produced using known methods. As an example of a method for producing a preserved flower, for example, a method disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-57059 can be used. As the preserved flower, a known flower preserved flower can be appropriately used. Preserved flowers include roses, lilies, Yoshino cherry, tulips, camellia, and plum preserved flowers. Preserved flowers can basically be produced by drying fresh flowers and then infiltrating the dried flowers with resin. In the present invention, after a fresh flower is divided into petals and dried, a resin is infiltrated to make the petal a preserved flower, and a processed product may be manufactured using the petal. Alternatively, the preserved flower in a flower state may be separated into petals and processed thereon.

The step of forming the resin coating includes a step of immersing the petals in the resin solution. The resin solution _contains C 7 _{-C 10} aromatic alkyl, and _C 4 -C ₆ acetates. These aromatic alkyls and acetic acid esters are preferably the main components of the resin solution, but may be diluted as appropriate. By using these solutions, fading from the preserved flower can be prevented. C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl means aromatic alkyl having 7 to 10 carbon atoms. The weight ratio of C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl and C ₄ -C ₆ acetate is appropriately adjusted according to the humidity, the thickness of the resin coating layer, the strength of the processed product, the color of the processed product, and the like. The weight ratio of C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl and C ₄ -C ₆ acetate is 1:10 to 10: 1, and may be 2: 3 to 3: 2.

Examples of the C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl in the present invention include any one or more of toluene, ortho-xylene, meta-xylene, and para-xylene. Further, examples of the C ₄ -C ₆ acetate in the present invention include either or both of ethyl acetate and butyl acetate. For example, the concentration of the resin solution can be adjusted by increasing or decreasing the amount of ethyl acetate.

  When the petals are immersed in the resin solution, it is preferable to prepare a large container and a small container. Then, put water, ice, or ice water in a large container, and then put a smaller container on top of it. Then, put the resin solution into the smaller container. Thus, by performing the immersion treatment at a low temperature in a water bath or ice bath, it is possible to prevent the resin solution from volatilizing and to minimize damage to the preserved flower.

  What is necessary is just to adjust suitably the time which a petal is immersed in a resin solution according to conditions, such as a petal size, a resin coating thickness, humidity, and temperature. For example, if the immersion time is 10 minutes or more and 5 hours or less, a resin coating can be formed effectively. However, the processed product after recombining the petals can be finished more gracefully by dipping for a short time of 1 second to 1 minute, preferably 3 seconds to 15 seconds.

  After soaking, it is possible to obtain a processed flower of a preserved flower in the shape of a flower by taking out the petal, drying it and then recombining the petals. This processed product may be further processed to produce a bouquet, brooch or flower arrangement.

  In addition, after the above-mentioned dipping step, before the resin is completely dried, the one that is immersed in another compounded solution (cyclic ketone-containing solution described later) or another compounded solution is applied is preferable implementation of the present invention. It is an aspect.

  Another pattern of the present invention includes a step of separating a flower-shaped preserved flower petal, a step of forming a resin coating for each separated petal, and a resin-coated petal, Reproducing the shape of the flower. The step of forming the resin coating includes a step of immersing the petals in the resin solution, and a step of taking out the petals immersed in the resin solution and applying a cyclic ketone-containing liquid to the taken out petals. Thus, the situation where resin becomes thicker than necessary can be prevented by applying the cyclic ketone-containing liquid with a brush. In addition, it can eliminate unnatural gloss and express the cuteness of fresh flowers.

  The manufacturing method is the same as that described above, except that it includes “a step of taking out petals immersed in a resin solution and applying a cyclic ketone-containing liquid to the taken out petals”. Examples of the coating process include dip coating, spray coating, spin coating coating, and brush coating. Among these, application with a brush is preferable. These coating steps may be performed using known conditions as appropriate. Further, the dip coating process may be performed under the same conditions as described above.

The cyclic ketone contained in the cyclic ketone-containing liquid is a C ₆ -C ₉ cyclic ketone. Incidentally, the cyclic ketone containing _liquid, in addition to the C 6 -C ₉ cyclic _ketones, C 7 _{-C 10} aromatic alkyl and may contain a _C 4 -C ₆ acetates. These cyclic ketones, aromatic alkyls, and acetates are preferably the main components, but may be diluted as appropriate. By including the same components as the resin coating in this way, the resin coating layer formed by dipping can be dissolved, so that unevenness and the like can be adjusted. That is, the C ₆ -C ₉ cyclic ketone is 1 part by weight or more and 10 parts by weight, where the total of C ₆ -C ₉ cyclic ketone, C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl, and C ₄ -C ₆ acetate is 100 parts by weight. 1 part by weight or more and 5 parts by weight may be sufficient.

_C 7 _{-C 10} aromatic alkyl contained in the resin solution, and _C 7 _{-C 10} aromatic alkyl that is included in the cyclic ketone containing liquid may be the same or different. In the present invention, the C ₇ -C ₁₀ aromatic alkyl includes any one or more of toluene, ortho-xylene, meta-xylene, and para-xylene. C ₄ -C ₆ acid ester contained in the resin solution, and C ₄ -C ₆ acid ester contained in the cyclic ketone containing liquid may be the same or different. In the present invention, examples of the C ₄ -C ₆ acetate include ethyl acetate and / or butyl acetate. An example of the C ₆ -C ₉ cyclic ketone in the present invention is cyclohexanone.

  In the actual manufacturing process, the thickness of the resin may be adjusted according to the purpose of use, and only one surface of the petal may be coated. In addition, when the resin thickness is increased and the shape is desired to be maintained for a long time, the number of times of application such as dipping may be increased. In addition, it is preferable to appropriately adjust the resin composition and application state according to the preserved flower to be used, the temperature, the humidity, and what kind of finishing state it is desired to achieve.

  As described above, according to the present invention, a processing fluid for a preserved flower can also be provided. Although the present invention has been described mainly with respect to preserved flowers, it can be applied to generally arranged flowers in which dried flowers are coated with a resin.

  The second aspect of the present invention includes a step of separating a preserved flower petal in the shape of a flower with a stem, a step of forming a resin coating for each of the separated petals, and the petal is separated. A step of wrapping paper around the tip of the preserved flower stalk, the paper wrapped around the preserved flower stalk as a core, the resin-coated petals are combined, and the stem before the petals are separated And a process for producing a preserved flower processed product having a shape of a flower larger than the flower.

According to the manufacturing method of Preserved workpiece according to this aspect, can be maintained fresh flowers likelihood for a long period of time, it is possible to provide a manufacturing method of the beautiful Preserved workpiece. Furthermore, it is possible to provide beautiful preserved flower processed products according to various uses such as a flower (or a small flower) larger than the original preserved flower.

Next, a resin coating is formed for each of the separated petals. This is the same as described above. Next, wrap the paper around the tip of the preserved flower stem from which the petals have been separated. In the example shown in FIG. 3A, the stem and the portion with pistil and stamen are further separated after the petals are separated. And paper is wrapped around the tip of the stem. This paper is preferably Japanese paper from the viewpoint of water absorption. If the core is made using Japanese paper, the Japanese paper accumulates the resin, so that the preserved flower can last longer. Then, as shown in FIG. 3C, the petals are reassembled on the stem. Thus, the preserved flower processed product which combined the petal shown by FIG. 4 can be manufactured.

  The third aspect of the present invention includes a step of separating a petal of a flower with a stem, a step of forming a resin coating for each of the separated petals, and paper at the tip of the stem from which the petal is separated.
