Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、基材の表面上に転写剤を塗着した転写テープを、転写具本体に設けた転写ヘッドを用いて紙面等の被転写体に転写剤の転写を行う転写具に関する。
【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の表面上に修正剤、着色剤、粘着剤等の転写剤を設けてテープ状に加工し、紙面等の被転写体に修正剤、着色剤、粘着剤を圧接して転写する構造の転写具は良く知られている。
【０００３】
前記転写具は主として、転写具本体を２つ割りのケースで形成し、ケース内部に供給リールと巻取リールを回転可能に配設し、供給リールに巻装された転写テープを転写具本体に設けた転写ヘッドの転写部にて折り返し、転写部を紙面等に圧接した状態でテープ繰り出し方向へ移動させる事によって、基材の表面上から転写剤を剥離しながら紙面に転写するものが一般的であり、転写時に転写部を紙面へ圧接する際には、使用者がだいたいの感覚で転写具本体を紙面方向へ押圧し転写剤を紙面に定着させていた。
【０００４】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、従来構造は転写剤の定着力が使用者の感覚に依存されており、各使用者の腕力や使用経験、あるいは、同一使用者でも使用環境や体調に左右されてしまい定着力を一定に保つ事が困難であった。
【０００５】
特に、誤字を修正するための修正剤を転写する修正具の場合には、修正剤を紙面上の誤字箇所へ強固に定着させる必要があるが、転写部を十分な力で圧接しなかった場合には修正剤の一部が基材に残ってしまい、紙面上の修正剤が不連続となってしまったり、一見連続して綺麗に修正されている様に見えていても、修正部分に訂正文字を筆記具で書く際に、転写された修正剤の定着力が不十分なため、ペン先で修正剤が剥がされてしまう場合があった。
【０００６】
また、逆に、試験勉強等でテキストに記載された暗記したい文字を透視不能な着色剤で隠蔽する場合や、あるいは、強調したい文字を一時的に透視可能な蛍光剤でマーキングする場合には、状況に応じてテキストへ転写した着色剤の剥離を行うために、着色剤を弱めに定着させる必要があるが、転写時に転写部を紙面へ過剰に圧接した場合には、後で転写剤を綺麗に剥がす事が困難となってしまう場合があった。
【０００７】
本発明の目的は、上述した従来構造の問題点に鑑み、転写部の被転写体への圧接状態を、使用者が転写時に認識できる転写具を提供する事である。
【０００８】
【課題を解決するための手段】
次に、前記課題の解決するために案出した本発明を説明する。
「１．基材の表面上に転写剤を塗着した転写テープを転写具本体の内部に収容し、転写具本体の前方へ基材上の前記転写剤を剥離しながら被転写体に転写を行う転写ヘッドを設け、前記転写具本体の内部から繰り出されてきた転写テープを前記転写ヘッドの先端に設けた転写部にて折り返し、使用者が転写具本体を被転写体方向へ押圧することによって前記転写部が被転写体を圧接し、転写部を圧接状態で転写テープ繰り出し方向へ移動させる事によって転写剤を被転写体に転写する転写具において、前記転写ヘッドの転写部の後方へ支持部を設けると共に該支持部を前記転写具本体の前方に固定し、前記支持部の上方へ位置した転写具本体の側面に膨出部を設け、転写ヘッドが弾性的に変形した際に、支持部が膨出部を乗り越えることにより、使用者が転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識できる構造とした事を特徴とする転写具。
２．基材の表面上に転写剤を塗着した転写テープを転写具本体の内部に収容し、転写具本体の前方へ基材上の前記転写剤を剥離しながら被転写体に転写を行う転写ヘッドを設け、前記転写具本体の内部から繰り出されてきた転写テープを前記転写ヘッドの先端に設けた転写部にて折り返し、使用者が転写具本体を被転写体方向へ押圧することによって前記転写部が被転写体を圧接し、転写部を圧接状態で転写テープ繰り出し方向へ移動させる事によって転写剤を被転写体に転写する転写具において、前記転写ヘッドの転写部の後方へ支持部を設けると共に該支持部を前記転写具本体の前方に固定し、前記支持部の上部に起立部材を設けると共に転写具本体の上面へ前記起立部材が挿通可能な貫通孔を設け、転写ヘッドが弾性的に変形した際に、起立部材が貫通孔より隆起することにより、使用者が転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識できる構造とした事を特徴とする転写具。」
【０００９】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明において、使用者が転写ヘッドの弾性的な変形に伴った転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識できる構造とするのは、使用者が転写時に転写部の圧接力を適正に維持して転写を行う事ができるという作用効果を奏するためである。
【００１０】
また、本発明において、転写ヘッドが弾性的に変形するとは、転写ヘッドが備えた弾性力に逆らって弾性変形する場合と、弾性変形した転写ヘッドが弾性復元力によって復元する場合の両方の状況を意味する。また、転写ヘッドに弾性力を付与する方法としては、転写ヘッド自体を金属線材や樹脂等の弾性体で成形したり、あるいは、転写具本体が剛体である場合には、転写ヘッドをテープ繰り出し方向の反対側へ回動可能に配設した上で、コイルスプリングやクッションゴム等の弾性体を、転写ヘッドと転写具本体の間に配設する事によって弾性力を付与しても良い。また、転写ヘッドが弾性力に逆らって弾性変形している際に、弾性変形の反作用が転写部の圧接力として被転写体へ掛かる様にすると共に、使用者が転写ヘッドの一定以上の変形量に伴った転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識可能に設定する事によって、転写ヘッドの弾性変形の変形状態と転写部の圧接状態を関連づける事ができる。
【００１１】
ここで、転写ヘッドの弾性的な変形に伴って使用者が転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識できる構造を具体的に説明するが、本実施の形態では、本発明の構成をより解り易くするために具体的に説明するものであり、本発明が本実施の形態に限定されるものではない。
【００１２】
（圧接状態を使用者の聴覚で認識する構造）
圧接状態を使用者の聴覚で認識する構造としては、転写ヘッドの転写部の後方へ支持部を設けると共に支持部を転写具本体の前方に固定し、支持部の上方へ位置した転写具本体の内側面に膨出部を設け、転写時に転写部が所要の圧接力へ到達した際に、支持部が転写ヘッドの弾性力に逆らいながら膨出部を乗り越えて上方へ移動するように設定し、転写部が所要の圧接力以下となった際には支持部が転写ヘッドの弾性復元力によって下方へ移動し、弾性復元力の勢いと膨出部による圧縮から解放される時の勢いによって、支持部の側部が転写具本体の内側面を打撃して打撃音を発生し、使用者が聴覚的に転写部の圧接力が不足している事を認識する構造がある。
【００１３】
（圧接状態を使用者の触覚で認識する構造１）
圧接状態を使用者の触覚で認識する構造としては、前記圧接状態を使用者の聴覚で認識する構造の転写ヘッドの支持部が膨出部を乗り越える際の抵抗力を大きく設定する事によって、乗り越える時の抵抗感から乗り越えた後の開放感を触覚的に認識でき、抵抗感が開放感に変化した際には、転写部が所要の圧接力に到達している事を認識できる構造がある。また、支持部の側部が転写具本体の内側面を打撃する際の打撃力を大きく設定し、使用者が打撃音による聴覚的な認識と共に打撃振動を触覚的に認識できる構造がある。
この様に、認識手段に聴覚と共に触覚を併用して用いる事は、使用環境が騒々しく聴覚的には圧接状態が認識しにくい場合であっても、少なくとも触覚的に圧接状態を認識する事ができるので好ましい構造となる。
【００１４】
（圧接状態を使用者の触覚で認識する構造２）
また、他の圧接状態を使用者の触覚で認識する構造としては、転写ヘッドの転写部の後方へ支持部を設けると共に、支持部を転写具本体の前方へ固定し、支持部の上部に起立部材を設けると共に、転写具本体の上面に前記起立部材が挿通可能な貫通孔を設け、転写時に転写部が所要の圧接力に到達した際に、起立部材が転写ヘッドの上方への弾性的な変形に従動して貫通孔から隆起する様に設定し、転写具を把持した指に起立部材が接触した際に、使用者が触覚的に転写部の圧接力が満足している事を認識する構造がある。
また、逆に、転写具本体の下面に貫通孔を設けると共に、起立部材を転写ヘッドの下部に設け、未使用時または転写時の圧接力が不足している場合には起立部材が貫通孔から隆起して使用者の指に接触し、転写部の圧接力が満足した場合には起立部材が貫通孔に埋没して指から離れる構造とすれば、使用者が圧接力の不足を指に起立部材が接触した際に認識できる構造となる。
【００１５】
（圧接状態を使用者の視覚で認識する構造）
また、圧接状態を使用者の視覚で認識する構造としては、前記圧接状態を使用者の触覚で認識する構造２の貫通孔及び起立部材を転写具本体上面の見易い位置に設定する事によって、転写時に転写部が所要の圧接力へ到達した際に起立部材が貫通孔から隆起した状態を視認でき、使用者が視覚的に転写部の圧接力が満足している事を認識する構造がある。
【００１６】
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、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等のプラスチック基材等を適宜選択すればよい。
また、基材の片面に設ける転写剤も用途に合わせて、修正剤、粘着剤、着色剤等を適宜選択すればよい。
また、基材と転写剤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たり基材と転写剤以外に他の機能を持った層を設ける等の公知な転写テ−プを使用することができる。
ケースは透明または不透明なものであっても特に限定されることはないが、転写時の作業性を考慮すると、透明なもののほうがテ−プ残量の確認が容易にできるので好ましい。
【００１７】
転写後の転写テープの収納手段は、巻取リ−ルによりテ−プを巻き取る方法等の収納手段を用いる事ができる。
尚、供給リ−ルと巻取リールを互いに連動させる事によって、転写部を圧接状態でテープ繰出方向に移動させて転写テ−プの転写剤を転写する手段を好適に用いる事ができる。
また、供給リ−ルおよび巻取リール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ラチェット機構等の公知な機構を適宜選択する事ができる。また逆回転防止機構を設けた場合には、誤って転写具をテープ繰出方向と反対方向へ移動させてしまっても、ケース内に配設された各リ−ルは回転されずテープの位置ズレやたるみが生じる事がないので好ましい。
【００１８】
特に、転写テ−プにたるみが生じる場合には、巻取リールの巻き取り量を供給リールの繰り出し量より若干多くし、テ−プに張りを持たせるたるみ防止手段を用いる事が好ましい。
また、転写ヘッドから転写テープが横へズレないように、転写ヘッドへ転写テープの位置ズレ防止のガイドを設ける事が好ましい。
【００１９】
【実施例】
次に、前述の課題を解決するために本発明の実施例を説明するが、本実施例では本発明の構成を解り易くするために図を用いて説明するものであり、本発明が図の実施例のみに限定されるものではない。
尚、実施例の具体例として修正具を基にしたが、本発明による転写具は、着色剤や粘着剤等の転写剤を塗着した転写テープを収容した一般的な転写具として理解されるべきである。
実施例中の同じ部材、同じ部品については同じ番号を付してある。
【００２０】
図１は、実施例１の転写具の全体姿図である。尚、図を見易くするために転写具本体の外観部分は鎖線で描いており内部構造は省略してある。
図２は前記図１に示す転写具の内部構造の説明図で、図２Ａは、全体構造の側面図、図２Ｂは前記図２Ａの矢印IIＡ−IIＡから見た断面図である。
【００２１】
図１において実施例１の転写具の外観形態概要の説明を行う。転写具１は、転写具本体２の先端部に転写ヘッド３を固設してある。尚、転写具本体２は透明な樹脂材で成形したトレー状のケース２０１ａ，２０１ｂを組み合わせて一体とした。また、転写ヘッド３は断面が円形である金属線材を折り曲げて形成し、二つの略９０゜の折曲部３ａ，３ａを設けたコの字形状とした。尚、二つの折曲部３ａ，３ａの間を転写部４とし、転写部４を転写テープ５の繰り出し方向に対して直交する様に設定した。また、折曲部３ａ，３ａの後方には支持部３ｃ，３ｃを延接し、支持部３ｃ，３ｃの後端部をケース２０１ａ，２０１ｂの内側面２ｃ，２ｃに形成した突出部２ｄ，２ｄの前方へ設けた丸孔２ｅ，２ｅに圧入して固定した。
【００２２】
次に、図２において実施例１の転写具の内部構造概容を説明する。
転写具本体２は、ケース２０１ａ，２０１ｂ内部に空所２０２を形成している。また、転写具本体２の先端部には矩形の先端開口６を設けており、転写テープ５が先端開口６の下方位置から繰り出され先端開口６の上方位置に巻き取られている。
【００２３】
また、転写具本体１の空所２０２において、一方のケース２０１ｂからケースの長軸に沿って水平に間隔を置いて互いに平行に伸びる２本の支軸２０３及び２０４を一体成形によって設け、先端部に近い方の支軸２０３には、小径歯車２０７のボス部２０７ａを自由回転可能に支承した。尚、この歯車２０７のボス部２０７ａは使用済みの転写テープ５ｂが巻き取られる巻取りリール２０５を同時に兼ねている。
また、先端部から遠い方の支軸２０４には大径歯車２０８のボス部２０８ａを回転可能に支承した。そして、この歯車２０８のボス部２０８ａには、未使用の転写テープ５ａが多数コイル状に捲回された供給リール２０６を、弾性摩擦スリーブ２０８ｂを介在させて摩擦負荷回転可能に装着した。
これら大小２つの歯車２０７及び歯車２０８は、一方のケース２０１ｂの内側面２ｃ，２ｃに隣接してフランジ状に配設しており、かつそれらの外周縁には各々互いに噛み合う歯山２０７ｂ及び２０８ｃを成形した。
【００２４】
また、大径の歯車２０８の側面には、ケース２０１ｂ側に張り出す爪２１０が各々先端部分に備えられた複数個の円弧状の弾性舌片２０９を円周方向に沿って配設し、大径の歯車２０８に相対向するケース２０１ｂの内側面２ｃには、爪２１０と一方の回転方向でのみ係合可能な環状のラチェット溝２１１を形成しており、転写テープ５が繰り出す方向にのみ供給リール２０６を回転可能とした。
さらに、２つのケース２０１ａ，２０１ｂの間を差し渡す形で水平方向に伸びる２本のガイド２１２及び２１３を、未使用転写テープ５ａの転写部４への繰り出し及び使用済み転写テープ５ｂの巻取りを案内するために大小各歯車の前方位置に設けた。これらは共に転写テープ５の円滑な案内を行うために転写ヘッド３の下方位置及び上方位置に各々設けてある。さらに、各々の位置は、供給リール２０６及び巻取りリール２０５に捲回される転写テープ５ａ及び５ｂの半径方向厚さの最大値と最小値とを考慮した位置である。
【００２５】
従って、上記した構成により、使用に際して転写部４が紙面上を転写テープ繰り出し方向へ移動すると、未使用転写テープ５ａは供給リール２０６と弾性摩擦スリーブ２０８ｂとの摩擦抵抗を受けながら繰り出され、他方、転写部４から大径の歯車２０８へと伝達された回転駆動力を小径の歯車２０７が受けて増速回転する事によって、使用済み転写テープ５ｂは所定の緊張力を受けて強制的に巻き取られる。その結果、転写部４を境とした使用済み転写テープ５ｂ及び未使用転写テープ５ａの弛みは回避され、この弛みに起因して転写テープ５が転写部４から外れるといった問題が回避されると同時に、双方の転写テープが重なって転写部４に巻き込まれるといった問題も回避されることとなる。
【００２６】
図３は実施例１の転写ヘッドの弾性変形の状態を示す要部姿図である。図４は図３の矢印IIIＣ−IIIＣから見た断面図で、図４Ａは図３の矢印IIIＡへの弾性変形の際の断面図で、図４Ｂは図３の矢印IIIＢへの弾性変形の際の断面図である。
尚、いずれの図面も図を見易くするために転写テープは省略してある。
図３における転写ヘッド３は、転写部４を被転写面へ圧接した際に、支持部３ｃ，３ｃが固定部である丸孔２ｅ，２ｅを支点として弾性変形し、支持部３ｃ，３ｃが転写具本体２の内側面２ｃ，２ｃに形成した膨出部７，７を乗り越えて矢印IIIＡの方向に移動し、転写部３の被転写面への圧接力が不足した場合には、弾性変形の弾発復元力によって支持部３ｃ，３ｃが膨出部７，７を乗り越えて矢印IIIＢの方向へ移動する構造である。
尚、転写ヘッドの定位置は、図４Ａの支持部３ｃ，３ｃ（実線）の位置であり、支持部３ｃ，３ｃの外側部（図示せず）がケース２の内側面２ｃ，２ｃに当接した状態である。
【００２７】
図４Ａの矢印IＶＡは、図３の矢印IIIＡへの弾性変形に伴った支持部３ｃ，３ｃの移動経路を示し、図４Ｂの矢印IＶＢは、図３の矢印IIIＢへの弾性変形に伴った支持部３ｃ，３ｃの移動経路を示している。
尚、実施例１の転写ヘッド３は、各支持部３ｃ,３ｃの後端部を丸孔２ｅ，２ｅに圧入して固定しているのにも関わらず、転写ヘッドを金属細線という弾性力に富んだ材質で形成したため、図４Ａ，図４Ｂに示す様に、支持部３ｃ，３ｃは膨出部７，７を乗り越える際に弾性的に内方向へ撓み、乗り越えると共に元の形状に容易に復元できた。
【００２８】
次に、図３，図４を用いて、実施例１の転写具で実際に転写作業を行った時の、転写ヘッドの弾性変形の変形状態と転写部の圧接状態の関係の説明を行う。
本実施例の転写具で実際に転写作業を行ったところ、転写部４を紙面へ圧接させるために転写具本体２を紙面方向へ押圧した際に、転写ヘッド３は、図４Ａの矢印IＶＡに示す様に上方へ弾性変形し、使用者は支持部３ｃ，３ｃが急傾斜面７ａ,７ａに当接する抵抗感を感じた直後に支持部３ｃ，３ｃが頂点７ｂ，７ｂを乗り越えた開放感を感じ取る事ができた。そこで、転写部４を圧接状態のまま転写テープ繰り出し方向へ移動させて転写剤を紙面に連続転写した。この時、転写剤は紙面へ十分な力で定着されていた。また、使用者が押圧力を弱めたところ、転写ヘッドの下方への弾性復元力によって、支持部３ｃ，３ｃは、図４Ｂの矢印IＶＢが示す様に緩傾斜面７ｃ，７ｃを遡って頂点７ｂ，７ｂを乗り越し、さらに、弾性復元力によって支持部３ｃ，３ｃが転写具本体２の内側面２ｃ，２ｃを打撃して打撃音を発生すると共に、打撃によってケース２０１ａ，２０１ｂを振動させた。この時、使用者は打撃音および振動によって転写部４の圧接力が不足した事を認識し、再度、支持部３ｃ，３ｃが頂点７ｂ，７ｂを乗り越えた際の開放感を感じ取るまで、転写具本体２への押圧力を強める事ができた。
この様に、実施例１の転写具は、転写ヘッドの弾性変形の変形状態と転写部の圧接状態が関係しているのと同時に、使用者が転写部の圧接状態を聴覚や触覚によって認識できるので、転写時に転写部の圧接力を適正に維持して転写を行う事ができる構造である。
【００２９】
図５は、実施例２の転写具の要部姿図である。
図５における転写具１の転写ヘッド３は尖頭形状の樹脂成形部材で、前方部に転写テープの横方向のズレを防止するためのガイド３ｄ，３ｄを有し、ガイド３ｄ，３ｄの間を転写部４とし、ガイド３ｄ，３ｄより後方を舌片状の支持部３ｃとした。また、支持部３ｃの後端部は、ケース２０１ａと２０１ｂを組み合わせた時に形成される角孔２ｆに圧入して固定した。
【００３０】
図５における転写具１は、転写部４を紙面へ圧接した際に転写ヘッド３は、支持部３ｃの固定部である角孔２ｆを支点として上方へ弾性変形し、支持部３ｃが転写具本体２の内側面２ｃ，２ｃに形成した膨出部７，７を乗り越えて矢印ＶＡの方向に移動し、転写時に転写部３の被転写面への圧接力が不足した場合には、転写ヘッド３の下方への弾発復元力によって、支持部３ｃが膨出部７，７を乗り越えて矢印ＶＢの方向へ移動する構造である。その他の構造は実施例１の転写具と同様であり、実施例２の転写具は、実施例１の転写具と同様の作用効果を奏する事ができた。
【００３１】
図６は、実施例３の転写具の全体姿図である。尚、図を見易くするために転写具本体の外観部分は鎖線で描いており内部構造は省略してある。図７は前記図６に示す転写具の内部構造の説明図で、図７Ａは、全体構造の側面図、図７Ｂは前記図７Ａの矢印ＶIIＡ−ＶIIＡから見た断面図である。
【００３２】
図６における実施例３の転写具の外観形態概要は、前述の図１において説明した実施例１と同様であるため説明を省略する。また、図７における転写具１の内部構造概要は、前述の図２において説明した実施例１と同様であるため説明を省略する。ここでは、実施例１とは異なる実施例３の特徴点についてのみ説明する。
【００３３】
図６，図７において転写具１は、転写具本体２の空所２０２の内部に上方へ起立した起立部材８を収容している。起立部材８は両端を下方へ向けた「コの字」形状の樹脂成形部材で、両辺８ａ，８ａの端部には丸孔８ｂ，８ｂを設け、転写ヘッド３の支持部３ｃ，３ｃを挿嵌して固定した。また、転写時に転写ヘッド３が弾性変形し、起立部材８の上面８ｃが隆起する転写具本体の上面の位置には、矩形の貫通孔９を設けた。
尚、先端開口６の上方位置へ巻き取られた転写テープは、起立部材８の開口部８ｄをかいくぐって巻取リール２０５へ導かれる。このため、本実施例による転写具の起立部材８は両辺８ａ，８ａによって、転写テープの左右のズレを防止させる事ができる。
【００３４】
図８は実施例３の転写ヘッドの弾性変形の状態を示す要部姿図である。図８において転写ヘッド３は、転写部４に圧接力が掛かった際に矢印ＶIIIＡの方向へ弾性変形する。この時、転写ヘッド３は支持部３ｃ，３ｃの固定部である丸孔２ｅ，２ｅを支点として上方へ弾性変形を行う事となるが、転写部４に掛かる圧接力が修正剤を紙面へ十分に定着する事ができる力になった際に、起立部材８が転写ヘッド３に従動して貫通孔９より隆起する様に設定してある。
図９は起立部材が指に接触した状態を示す要部姿図である。
【００３５】
次に図８，図９を用いて、実施例３の転写具で実際に転写作業を行った時の、転写ヘッドの弾性変形の変形状態と転写部の圧接状態の関係の説明を行う。
実施例３の転写具で実際に修正作業を行ったところ、転写部４を紙面へ圧接させるために転写具本体２を紙面方向へ押圧した際に、転写ヘッド３が矢印ＶIIIＡの方向へ弾性変形する事によって起立部材８は貫通孔９より隆起し、起立部材８の上面８ｃが転写具１を把持した使用者の指に接触した。（図９の状態）
そこで、上面８ｃが指に接触した状態で転写部４を転写テープ繰り出し方向へ移動させて転写したところ、修正剤は紙面に十分な力で定着されていた。
また、使用者が押圧力を弱めたところ、転写ヘッドの下方への弾性復元力によって、転写ヘッド３が矢印ＶIIIＢの方向へ弾性変形し、起立部材８は貫通孔９に没入した。
そこで、起立部材８が指から離間した状態で転写したところ、修正剤は紙面へ十分な力で定着されておらず、転写された修正剤を指で軽く擦ると剥がれてしまう部分があった。つまり、実施例３の転写具は指に起立部材８が接触した状態を維持しながら転写を行う事によって、修正剤を紙面に連続して十分な力で定着させる事が可能となるものである。
この様に、実施例３の転写具は、転写ヘッドの弾性変形の変形状態と転写部の圧接状態が関係しているのと同時に、使用者が転写部の圧接状態を触覚によって認識できるので、転写時に転写部の圧接力を適正に維持して転写を行う事ができる構造である。
また、起立部材８及び貫通孔９を指に接触しない位置、つまり指で隠れない位置へずらして設定したところ、使用者は貫通孔９から起立部材８が隆起した状態を目視でき、転写部の圧接力が満足している事を使用者が視覚的に認識できる構造となった。
【００３６】
図１０は、実施例４の転写具の要部姿図である。
図１０における転写具１の転写ヘッド３は尖頭形状の樹脂成形部材で、前方部に転写テープの横方向のズレを防止するためのガイド３ｄ，３ｄを有し、ガイド３ｄ，３ｄの間を転写部４とし、ガイド３ｄ，３ｄより後方を舌片状の支持部３ｃとした。また、支持部３ｃの後端部は、ケース２０１ａと２０１ｂを組み合わせた時に形成される角孔２ｆに圧入して固定した。尚、支持部３ｃの中間部には上方へ起立した起立部材８を形成した。起立部材８は両端を下方へ向けた「コの字」形状で、両辺８ａ，８ａの端部が支持部３ｃに連接した一体成形の樹脂成形部材である。また、転写時に転写ヘッド３が弾性変形し、起立部材８の上面８ｃが隆起する転写具本体の上面の位置には、矩形の貫通孔９を設けた。
図１０において転写ヘッド３は、転写部４に圧接力が掛かった際に矢印ＸＡの方向へ弾性変形する。この時、転写ヘッド３は支持部３ｃの固定部である角孔２ｆを支点として上方へ弾性変形を行う事となるが、転写部４に掛かる圧接力が修正剤を紙面へ十分に定着する事ができる力になった際に、起立部材８が転写ヘッド３に従動して貫通孔９より隆起する様に設定してある。また、転写部４の圧接力が修正剤を紙面へ十分に定着できない力になった際に、転写ヘッド３は下方への弾性復元力によって矢印ＸＢの方向へ弾性変形し、起立部材８は貫通孔９に没入する様に設定してある。
その他の構造は実施例３の転写具と同様であり、実施例４の転写具は、実施例３の転写具と同様の作用効果を奏する事ができた。
【００３７】
【発明の効果】
以上の通り、本発明による転写具は、使用者が転写ヘッドの弾性的な変形に伴った転写部の被転写面への圧接状態を認識できる構造としたので、転写時に転写部の圧接力を適正に維持して転写を行う事ができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a transfer tool for transferring a transfer tape onto a transfer medium such as a paper surface by using a transfer head provided on a transfer tool body with a transfer tape having a transfer agent coated on the surface of a substrate.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, a transfer agent such as a correction agent, a colorant, and an adhesive is provided on the surface of a substrate such as paper or film having releasability, and then processed into a tape shape, and the correction agent is applied to a transfer object such as paper. A transfer tool having a structure in which a colorant and an adhesive are transferred in pressure contact is well known.
[0003]
The transfer tool mainly includes a transfer tool main body formed in a split case, a supply reel and a take-up reel are rotatably disposed inside the case, and a transfer tape wound around the supply reel is attached to the transfer tool main body. Generally, it is transferred to the paper surface while peeling off the transfer agent from the surface of the substrate by turning back at the transfer part of the provided transfer head and moving the transfer part in the tape feeding direction while being pressed against the paper surface etc. When the transfer portion is pressed against the paper surface during transfer, the user presses the transfer tool body in the direction of the paper to fix the transfer agent on the paper surface.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, with the conventional structure, the fixing power of the transfer agent depends on the user's senses, and the fixing power remains constant because it depends on the arm strength and experience of each user, or even the same user is affected by the usage environment and physical condition. It was difficult to keep.
[0005]
In particular, in the case of a correction tool that transfers a correction agent for correcting typographical errors, it is necessary to firmly fix the correction agent to the typographical location on the paper surface, but the transfer part is not pressed with sufficient force. Even if some of the correction agent remains on the base material, the correction agent on the paper surface becomes discontinuous, or it looks like it has been beautifully corrected continuously, it is corrected in the correction part. When writing letters with a writing instrument, the fixer of the transferred correction agent is insufficient, and the correction agent may be peeled off at the pen tip.
[0006]
On the other hand, when concealing characters to be memorized in text in study studies etc. with a colorant that cannot be seen through, or when marking characters to be emphasized with a fluorescent agent that can be seen through temporarily, Depending on the situation, it is necessary to fix the colorant weakly in order to peel off the colorant transferred to the text. However, if the transfer part is excessively pressed against the paper during transfer, the transfer agent will be cleaned later. In some cases, it may be difficult to remove it.
[0007]
An object of the present invention is to provide a transfer tool that allows a user to recognize a pressure contact state of a transfer portion to a transfer target at the time of transfer in view of the problems of the conventional structure described above.
[0008]
[Means for Solving the Problems]

[0009]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
  In the present invention, the user presses the transfer portion into the surface to be transferred along with the elastic deformation of the transfer head.The structure that can be recognizedThis is because the user can perform the transfer while maintaining the press contact force of the transfer portion appropriately at the time of transfer.
[0010]
In the present invention, the transfer head is elastically deformed when both the case where the transfer head is elastically deformed against the elastic force of the transfer head and the case where the elastically deformed transfer head is restored by the elastic restoring force. means. In addition, as a method of applying an elastic force to the transfer head, the transfer head itself is formed of an elastic body such as a metal wire or resin, or when the transfer tool body is a rigid body, the transfer head is moved in the tape feeding direction. Further, an elastic body such as a coil spring or a cushion rubber may be provided between the transfer head and the transfer tool main body so that the elastic force can be applied. In addition, when the transfer head is elastically deformed against the elastic force, the reaction of the elastic deformation is applied to the transfer object as a pressure contact force of the transfer portion, and the user can deform the transfer head beyond a certain amount. By setting so that the pressure contact state of the transfer portion to the transfer surface can be recognized, the deformation state of the elastic deformation of the transfer head and the pressure contact state of the transfer portion can be correlated.
[0011]
  here,Structure that allows the user to recognize the pressure contact state of the transfer part to the transfer surface as the transfer head is elastically deformedIn the present embodiment, the present invention will be specifically described in order to make the configuration of the present invention easier to understand, and the present invention is not limited to the present embodiment.
[0012]
(Structure that recognizes the pressure contact state by the user's hearing)
As a structure for recognizing the pressure contact state by the user's hearing, a support part is provided at the rear of the transfer part of the transfer head, and the support part is fixed at the front of the transfer tool body, and the transfer tool body positioned above the support part. A bulging part is provided on the inner surface, and when the transfer part reaches the required pressure contact force at the time of transfer, the support part is set to move over the bulging part against the elastic force of the transfer head, When the transfer part becomes less than the required pressure contact force, the support part moves downward due to the elastic restoring force of the transfer head, and is supported by the momentum of the elastic restoring force and the moment when released from the compression by the bulging part. There is a structure in which the side part of the part strikes the inner surface of the transfer tool body to generate a striking sound, and the user audibly recognizes that the pressure contact force of the transfer part is insufficient.
[0013]
(Structure 1 for recognizing the pressure contact state with the user's sense of touch)
As a structure for recognizing the pressure contact state by the user's tactile sense, the transfer head support portion having a structure for recognizing the pressure contact state by the user's auditory sense can be overcome by setting a large resistance force when overcoming the bulging portion. There is a structure in which it is possible to tactilely recognize the feeling of opening after overcoming from the feeling of resistance at the time, and to recognize that the transfer portion has reached the required pressure contact force when the feeling of resistance changes to feeling of opening. Further, there is a structure in which the impact force when the side portion of the support portion strikes the inner surface of the transfer tool body is set large so that the user can tactilely recognize the striking vibration as well as the auditory recognition by the striking sound.
In this way, the recognition means used in combination with hearing and tactile sensation can at least tactilely recognize the pressure contact state even when the usage environment is noisy and it is difficult to hear the pressure contact state. Therefore, a preferable structure is obtained.
[0014]
(Structure 2 for recognizing the pressure contact state by tactile sense of the user)
In addition, as a structure for recognizing other pressure contact states by the user's tactile sense, a support portion is provided at the rear of the transfer portion of the transfer head, and the support portion is fixed to the front of the transfer tool body, and is erected on the upper portion of the support portion In addition to providing a member, a through-hole through which the upright member can be inserted is provided on the upper surface of the transfer tool body, and when the transfer unit reaches a required pressure contact force during transfer, the upright member is elastically moved upward of the transfer head. It is set to rise from the through hole following the deformation, and when the standing member comes into contact with the finger holding the transfer tool, the user recognizes that the pressure contact force of the transfer portion is satisfied by touch. There is a structure.
Conversely, a through hole is provided on the lower surface of the transfer tool main body, and an upright member is provided at the lower portion of the transfer head. When the pressure contact force is insufficient when not in use or at the time of transfer, the upright member is removed from the through hole. If the raised part comes into contact with the user's finger and the pressing force of the transfer part is satisfactory, the standing member is buried in the through hole and separated from the finger, so that the user can stand up with the lack of the pressing force on the finger. It becomes a structure which can be recognized when a member contacts.
[0015]
(Structure that recognizes the pressure contact state visually)
Further, as a structure for recognizing the pressure contact state visually by the user, the transfer hole is set by placing the through hole and the standing member of the structure 2 for recognizing the pressure contact state by the user's tactile sense at an easily viewable position on the upper surface of the transfer tool body. Sometimes, when the transfer portion reaches a required pressure contact force, the upright member can be visually recognized from the through hole, and the user visually recognizes that the pressure contact force of the transfer portion is satisfied.
[0016]
As a substrate for the transfer tape, a paper substrate such as capacitor paper or glassine paper, or a plastic substrate such as a polyester film, a polyethylene film, a polypropylene film, or a polyimide film may be appropriately selected.
In addition, a transfer agent provided on one side of the substrate may be appropriately selected from a correction agent, a pressure-sensitive adhesive, a colorant and the like according to the application.
Further, a release layer may be provided between the base material and the transfer agent, or the base material itself may be subjected to a release treatment. Furthermore, a known transfer tape such as an adhesive layer provided on the outermost layer or a layer having other functions besides the base material and the transfer agent can be used.
The case is not particularly limited even if it is transparent or opaque. However, considering the workability at the time of transfer, the transparent case is preferable because the tape remaining amount can be easily confirmed.
[0017]
As the storage means for the transfer tape after the transfer, storage means such as a method of winding the tape by a winding reel can be used.
In addition, by interlocking the supply reel and the take-up reel with each other, it is possible to suitably use means for transferring the transfer agent of the transfer tape by moving the transfer portion in the press-contact state in the tape feeding direction.
Further, a mechanism for preventing reverse rotation of the supply reel and the take-up reel, for example, a known mechanism such as a ratchet mechanism that is not locked in the normal rotation but only locked in the reverse rotation can be appropriately selected. In addition, when a reverse rotation prevention mechanism is provided, even if the transfer tool is mistakenly moved in the direction opposite to the tape feeding direction, each reel disposed in the case is not rotated and the tape is misaligned. This is preferable because no sagging occurs.
[0018]
In particular, when a sag occurs in the transfer tape, it is preferable to use a sag prevention means that makes the take-up reel take-up amount slightly larger than the feed-out amount of the supply reel so that the tape is stretched.
Further, it is preferable to provide a guide for preventing the displacement of the transfer tape from the transfer head so that the transfer tape does not shift laterally from the transfer head.
[0019]
【Example】
Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in order to solve the above-described problem. In this embodiment, the structure of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings so that the present invention can be easily understood. It is not limited to only the examples.
Although a correction tool is used as a specific example of the embodiment, the transfer tool according to the present invention is understood as a general transfer tool containing a transfer tape coated with a transfer agent such as a colorant or an adhesive. Should.
The same members and parts in the embodiments are given the same numbers.
[0020]
FIG. 1 is an overall view of the transfer tool according to the first embodiment. In order to make the drawing easier to see, the outer appearance of the transfer tool body is drawn with a chain line, and the internal structure is omitted.
2 is an explanatory view of the internal structure of the transfer tool shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2A is a side view of the entire structure, and FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view as seen from arrows IIA-IIA in FIG. 2A.
[0021]
In FIG. 1, the outline of the appearance of the transfer tool of Example 1 will be described. In the transfer tool 1, a transfer head 3 is fixed to the tip of the transfer tool body 2. The transfer tool main body 2 was integrated by combining tray-like cases 201a and 201b formed of a transparent resin material. The transfer head 3 was formed by bending a metal wire having a circular cross section, and was formed into a U shape having two bent portions 3a and 3a of approximately 90 °. Note that a portion between the two bent portions 3 a and 3 a is a transfer portion 4, and the transfer portion 4 is set so as to be orthogonal to the feeding direction of the transfer tape 5. Further, support portions 3c, 3c are extended behind the bent portions 3a, 3a, and rear end portions of the support portions 3c, 3c are formed on the inner surfaces 2c, 2c of the cases 201a, 201b. It pressed and fixed to the round holes 2e and 2e provided ahead.
[0022]
Next, the outline of the internal structure of the transfer tool of Example 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
The transfer tool main body 2 forms a void 202 inside the cases 201a and 201b. In addition, a rectangular tip opening 6 is provided at the tip of the transfer tool body 2, and the transfer tape 5 is fed out from a position below the tip opening 6 and wound around a position above the tip opening 6.
[0023]
Further, in the space 202 of the transfer tool main body 1, two support shafts 203 and 204 extending in parallel with each other at a horizontal interval from one case 201b along the long axis of the case are provided by integral molding, The boss portion 207a of the small-diameter gear 207 is supported on the support shaft 203 closer to the shaft so as to be freely rotatable. The boss portion 207a of the gear 207 also serves as a take-up reel 205 around which the used transfer tape 5b is taken up.
Further, the boss 208a of the large-diameter gear 208 is rotatably supported on the support shaft 204 far from the tip. Then, a supply reel 206 in which a large number of unused transfer tapes 5a are wound in a coil shape is mounted on the boss portion 208a of the gear 208 so as to be capable of rotating a friction load through an elastic friction sleeve 208b.
The two large and small gears 207 and 208 are arranged in a flange shape adjacent to the inner side surfaces 2c and 2c of one case 201b, and tooth crests 207b and 208c that mesh with each other are provided on the outer peripheral edges thereof. Molded.
[0024]
  Further, on the side surface of the large-diameter gear 208, a plurality of arc-shaped elastic tongue pieces 209 each provided with a claw 210 projecting toward the case 201b are provided along the circumferential direction. Of the case 201b facing the gear 208 having a diameterInner side 2cIs formed with an annular ratchet groove 211 that can be engaged with the claw 210 only in one rotation direction, and the supply reel 206 can be rotated only in the direction in which the transfer tape 5 is fed out.
  Further, the two guides 212 and 213 extending in the horizontal direction so as to pass between the two cases 201a and 201b are used to feed the unused transfer tape 5a to the transfer section 4 and to wind the used transfer tape 5b. In order to guide, it was provided in the front position of each large and small gear. Both of these are provided at a lower position and an upper position of the transfer head 3 in order to smoothly guide the transfer tape 5. Further, each position is a position in consideration of the maximum value and the minimum value of the radial thickness of the transfer tapes 5a and 5b wound around the supply reel 206 and the take-up reel 205.
[0025]
Therefore, with the above-described configuration, when the transfer unit 4 moves on the paper surface in the transfer tape feeding direction in use, the unused transfer tape 5a is fed while receiving the frictional resistance between the supply reel 206 and the elastic friction sleeve 208b, When the small-diameter gear 207 receives the rotational driving force transmitted from the transfer unit 4 to the large-diameter gear 208 and rotates at a high speed, the used transfer tape 5b is forcibly wound by receiving a predetermined tension. It is done. As a result, slack of the used transfer tape 5b and the unused transfer tape 5a with the transfer portion 4 as a boundary is avoided, and the problem that the transfer tape 5 is detached from the transfer portion 4 due to this slack is avoided at the same time. Further, the problem that both the transfer tapes overlap and are caught in the transfer unit 4 is also avoided.
[0026]
FIG. 3 is a main part view showing a state of elastic deformation of the transfer head of the first embodiment. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken along arrow IIIC-IIIC in FIG. 3, FIG. 4A is a cross-sectional view when elastically deforming into arrow IIIA in FIG. 3, and FIG. 4B is when elastically deforming along arrow IIIB in FIG. FIG.
In all the drawings, the transfer tape is omitted for easy viewing.
In the transfer head 3 in FIG. 3, when the transfer portion 4 is pressed against the transfer surface, the support portions 3c and 3c are elastically deformed with the round holes 2e and 2e as fixed portions as fulcrums, and the support portions 3c and 3c are transferred. If it moves over the bulging portions 7 and 7 formed on the inner side surfaces 2c and 2c of the tool body 2 and moves in the direction of arrow IIIA and the pressure contact force on the transfer surface of the transfer portion 3 is insufficient, elastic deformation will occur. The support parts 3c, 3c move over the bulging parts 7, 7 and move in the direction of arrow IIIB by the elastic restoring force.
The fixed position of the transfer head is the position of the support portions 3c and 3c (solid line) in FIG. 4A, and the outer portions (not shown) of the support portions 3c and 3c are in contact with the inner side surfaces 2c and 2c of the case 2. It is in the state.
[0027]
An arrow IVA in FIG. 4A indicates a moving path of the support portions 3c and 3c accompanying elastic deformation to the arrow IIIA in FIG. 3, and an arrow IVB in FIG. 4B is a support accompanying elastic deformation to the arrow IIIB in FIG. The movement path | route of the parts 3c and 3c is shown.
Incidentally, the transfer head 3 of Example 1 has an elastic force called a metal fine wire, although the rear end portions of the support portions 3c and 3c are press-fitted into the round holes 2e and 2e and fixed. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the support portions 3c and 3c are elastically bent inward when getting over the bulging portions 7 and 7 and are easily restored to the original shape as they get over. did it.
[0028]
Next, the relationship between the deformation state of the elastic deformation of the transfer head and the pressure contact state of the transfer portion when the transfer operation is actually performed with the transfer tool of Example 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.
When a transfer operation was actually performed with the transfer tool of this example, when the transfer tool body 2 was pressed in the direction of the paper surface in order to press the transfer unit 4 against the paper surface, the transfer head 3 moved to the arrow IVA in FIG. 4A. As shown in the figure, the user is elastically deformed upward, and immediately after the user feels the resistance that the support portions 3c and 3c come into contact with the steeply inclined surfaces 7a and 7a, the user feels the open feeling that the support portions 3c and 3c have overcome the vertices 7b and 7b I could feel it. Therefore, the transfer part 4 was moved in the transfer tape feeding direction while being in the pressure contact state, and the transfer agent was continuously transferred onto the paper surface. At this time, the transfer agent was fixed to the paper surface with sufficient force. Further, when the user weakens the pressing force, the support portions 3c and 3c go back gently inclined surfaces 7c and 7c as shown by the arrow IVB in FIG. 7b, and the support portions 3c, 3c strike the inner side surfaces 2c, 2c of the transfer tool body 2 by an elastic restoring force to generate a striking sound, and the cases 201a, 201b are vibrated by the striking. At this time, until the user recognizes that the pressure contact force of the transfer portion 4 is insufficient due to the hitting sound and vibration, and again feels the open feeling when the support portions 3c, 3c get over the vertices 7b, 7b, the transfer tool. The pressing force on the main body 2 could be increased.
As described above, in the transfer tool of Example 1, the deformation state of the elastic deformation of the transfer head and the pressure contact state of the transfer portion are related, and at the same time, the user can recognize the pressure contact state of the transfer portion by hearing or touch. Therefore, it is a structure that can perform the transfer while maintaining the pressure contact force of the transfer portion appropriately at the time of transfer.
[0029]
FIG. 5 is a main part view of the transfer tool of the second embodiment.
The transfer head 3 of the transfer tool 1 in FIG. 5 is a point-shaped resin molded member, and has guides 3d and 3d for preventing lateral displacement of the transfer tape at the front portion, and between the guides 3d and 3d. The transfer part 4 was used, and the back of the guides 3d and 3d was a tongue-like support part 3c. Further, the rear end portion of the support portion 3c was press-fitted and fixed into a square hole 2f formed when the cases 201a and 201b were combined.
[0030]
In the transfer tool 1 in FIG. 5, when the transfer part 4 is pressed against the paper surface, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed upward with a square hole 2f as a fixing part of the support part 3c as a fulcrum, and the support part 3c is the transfer tool main body. 2 is moved in the direction of the arrow VA over the bulging portions 7 and 7 formed on the inner side surfaces 2c and 2c, and when the pressure contact force to the transfer surface of the transfer portion 3 is insufficient at the time of transfer, the transfer head 3 The support part 3c moves over the bulging parts 7 and 7 and moves in the direction of the arrow VB by the downward resilient restoring force. The other structure was the same as that of the transfer tool of Example 1, and the transfer tool of Example 2 was able to achieve the same effects as the transfer tool of Example 1.
[0031]
FIG. 6 is an overall view of the transfer tool according to the third embodiment. In order to make the drawing easier to see, the outer appearance of the transfer tool body is drawn with a chain line, and the internal structure is omitted. 7 is an explanatory view of the internal structure of the transfer tool shown in FIG. 6, FIG. 7A is a side view of the entire structure, and FIG. 7B is a cross-sectional view as seen from arrows VIIA-VIIA in FIG. 7A.
[0032]
The outline of the appearance of the transfer tool of Example 3 in FIG. 6 is the same as that of Example 1 described in FIG. The outline of the internal structure of the transfer tool 1 in FIG. 7 is the same as that of the first embodiment described in FIG. Here, only the feature points of the third embodiment different from the first embodiment will be described.
[0033]
6 and 7, the transfer tool 1 accommodates an upright member 8 that rises upward in the space 202 of the transfer tool body 2. The upright member 8 is a “U” shaped resin molded member with both ends facing downward, and round holes 8b and 8b are provided at the ends of both sides 8a and 8a, and the support portions 3c and 3c of the transfer head 3 are inserted. Fit and fixed. In addition, a rectangular through hole 9 was provided at a position on the upper surface of the transfer tool main body where the transfer head 3 was elastically deformed during transfer and the upper surface 8c of the upright member 8 was raised.
The transfer tape wound up above the tip opening 6 is guided to the take-up reel 205 through the opening 8d of the upright member 8. For this reason, the upright member 8 of the transfer tool according to the present embodiment can prevent the right and left shift of the transfer tape by both sides 8a and 8a.
[0034]
FIG. 8 is a main part view showing the state of elastic deformation of the transfer head of Example 3. In FIG. 8, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed in the direction of the arrow VIIIA when a pressure contact force is applied to the transfer portion 4. At this time, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed upward with the round holes 2e and 2e, which are the fixing portions of the support portions 3c and 3c, as fulcrums, but the pressure contact force applied to the transfer portion 4 is sufficient to apply the correction agent to the paper surface. The upright member 8 is set so as to rise from the through hole 9 following the transfer head 3 when the force capable of fixing to the surface is reached.
FIG. 9 is a main part view showing a state where the standing member is in contact with the finger.
[0035]
Next, the relationship between the deformation state of the elastic deformation of the transfer head and the pressure contact state of the transfer portion when the transfer operation is actually performed with the transfer tool of Example 3 will be described with reference to FIGS.
When the correction work was actually performed with the transfer tool of Example 3, the transfer head 3 was elastically deformed in the direction of arrow VIIIA when the transfer tool body 2 was pressed in the paper direction to press the transfer unit 4 against the paper surface. As a result, the upright member 8 protrudes from the through hole 9, and the upper surface 8 c of the upright member 8 comes into contact with the finger of the user who holds the transfer tool 1. (State of FIG. 9)
Therefore, when the transfer unit 4 was moved and transferred in the transfer tape feeding direction with the upper surface 8c in contact with the finger, the correction agent was fixed on the paper surface with sufficient force.
When the user weakened the pressing force, the transfer head 3 was elastically deformed in the direction of the arrow VIIIB by the elastic restoring force below the transfer head, and the upright member 8 was immersed in the through hole 9.
Therefore, when the upright member 8 was transferred in a state of being separated from the finger, the correction agent was not fixed to the paper surface with a sufficient force, and there was a part that was peeled off when the transferred correction agent was lightly rubbed with the finger. That is, the transfer tool of Example 3 can fix the correction agent on the paper surface with sufficient force by performing transfer while maintaining the state where the upright member 8 is in contact with the finger. .
Thus, the transfer tool of Example 3 is related to the deformation state of the elastic deformation of the transfer head and the pressure contact state of the transfer portion, and at the same time, the user can recognize the pressure contact state of the transfer portion by touch, It is a structure that can perform transfer while maintaining the pressure contact force of the transfer portion properly at the time of transfer.
Further, when the upright member 8 and the through hole 9 are set so as not to contact the finger, that is, the position where the upright member 8 is not hidden by the finger, the user can see the raised state of the upright member 8 from the through hole 9, and the transfer portion The structure is such that the user can visually recognize that the pressing force is satisfied.
[0036]
FIG. 10 is a main part view of the transfer tool according to the fourth embodiment.
The transfer head 3 of the transfer tool 1 in FIG. 10 is a point-shaped resin molded member, and has guides 3d and 3d for preventing lateral displacement of the transfer tape at the front portion, and between the guides 3d and 3d. The transfer part 4 was used, and the back of the guides 3d and 3d was a tongue-like support part 3c. Further, the rear end portion of the support portion 3c was press-fitted and fixed into a square hole 2f formed when the cases 201a and 201b were combined. In addition, the standing member 8 which stood upwards was formed in the intermediate part of the support part 3c. The upright member 8 is an integrally formed resin molded member having a “U” shape with both ends facing downward, and the ends of both sides 8a and 8a are connected to the support portion 3c. In addition, a rectangular through hole 9 was provided at a position on the upper surface of the transfer tool main body where the transfer head 3 was elastically deformed during transfer and the upper surface 8c of the upright member 8 was raised.
In FIG. 10, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed in the direction of the arrow XA when a pressure contact force is applied to the transfer portion 4. At this time, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed upward with a square hole 2f that is a fixing portion of the support portion 3c as a fulcrum, but the pressing force applied to the transfer portion 4 sufficiently fixes the correction agent to the paper surface. The upright member 8 is set so as to rise from the through hole 9 by following the transfer head 3 when the force is such that Further, when the pressure contact force of the transfer unit 4 becomes a force that cannot sufficiently fix the correction agent on the paper surface, the transfer head 3 is elastically deformed in the direction of the arrow XB by the downward elastic restoring force, and the upright member 8 penetrates. It is set so as to be immersed in the hole 9.
The other structure was the same as that of the transfer tool of Example 3, and the transfer tool of Example 4 was able to achieve the same effects as the transfer tool of Example 3.
