Description

The present invention belongs to the technical field of a coating film transfer tool for press-transferring a character correction coating film, an adhesive coating film for adhesion, a decorative coating film, etc. onto a surface to be transferred, and particularly for transferring a coating film. It belongs to the technical field of a coating film transfer tool having a transfer head cover that protects a transfer tape on a transfer pressure part.

A coating film transfer tool generally transfers a coating film such as an adhesive or correction ink applied to the outer surface of a tape hung around a transfer head protruding from a case to a transfer surface such as paper. It's like Therefore, the coating film is exposed to the outside, and the coating film is easily damaged when not in use, and dust tends to adhere to it.

In order to prevent damage to the coating film and adhesion of dust, conventionally, a cover that can slide on the outer peripheral surface of the cassette as in Patent Documents 1 and 2 has been provided to remove the coating film that is hung around the transfer head when not in use. A coating film transfer tool for protection, a coating film transfer tool provided with a detachable protective cap covering the transfer head as in Patent Document 3, and a protective cover as in Patent Document 4 around the spindle on the outer periphery of the cassette. Coating transfer tools have been proposed that are rotatably mounted on the transfer head to protect the coating on the tape that is wrapped around the transfer head when not in use.

However, a plate-shaped transfer head cover that slides on the outer peripheral surface of the cassette in Patent Document 1 to cover the coating film on the transfer head, and a tip portion of the cassette that similarly slides in Patent Document 2 to cover the periphery of the transfer head. None of the cylindrical transfer head covers could cover the front of the tip of the transfer head, and was not sufficient to protect the coating film or prevent dust from adhering to the coating film.

The plate-shaped transfer head cover that rotates around the spindle on the outer periphery of the cassette in Patent Document 4 and covers the coating film on the transfer head protrudes from the outer surface of the coating film transfer tool when opened, making it difficult to see the transfer surface. When opening and closing the tape, a finger accidentally touches the coating surface of the tape near the transfer head, causing the coating to peel off or damage the coating.

Further, the detachable transfer head cap described in Patent Document 3 can be manufactured in a shape that completely covers the transfer head, but there is a possibility that the detached cap itself may be lost.

In order to solve such problems, Patent Document 5 proposes a coating film transfer tool X. The coating film transfer tool X has a pair of slidably opposed transfer head covers, and the transfer head covers are combined to cover the transfer head at a position where the transfer head covers protrude toward the transfer head. It is something to do. In the coating film transfer tool X, since a pair of transfer head covers are combined to cover the transfer head, it is possible to form a shape that also covers the front end of the transfer head, and the transfer head cover is not removed from the coating film transfer tool. , the transfer head cover is not lost.

Also, in the coating film transfer tool X, a structure has been proposed in which one of a pair of transfer head covers is slid, and the other is slid in conjunction with the other. Therefore, the transfer head covers can be reliably opened and closed simply by moving one of the transfer head covers without moving the transfer head covers separately.

In the coating film transfer tool X, a link mechanism, a cam mechanism, or the like is used as an interlocking mechanism for interlocking the pair of transfer head covers. However, when the interlocking mechanism is manufactured using a link mechanism, a cam mechanism, or the like, there is a problem in that the durability and the movement of the pair of transfer head covers are out of alignment. In order to interlock a pair of transfer head covers, it is necessary to have a structure in which the moving transfer head cover pushes the other transfer head cover and both transfer head covers move at the same time. For this purpose, the moving transfer head cover and the other transfer head cover must slide.

However, if the transfer head cover made of a molded product or the like is frequently slid, there is a problem that the sliding surface is scraped and cannot slide smoothly. Also, in order to allow the pair of transfer head covers to slide smoothly, it is necessary to provide the sliding surfaces with the minimum amount of play. However, when one of the transfer head covers is advanced in the direction of the transfer head, the "backlash" affects the other transfer head cover and causes a gap between the transfer head covers. The problem caused by this "backlash" becomes more conspicuous when the sliding surface is ground as described above. In order to solve these problems, there are methods such as incorporating parts that reduce friction and rotational resistance, such as bearings, on the sliding surfaces and rotating parts of the interlocking mechanism, or applying lubricant to improve sliding. Conceivable. However, when parts such as bearings are incorporated, the number of parts increases and the mechanism becomes complicated, and when a lubricant is used, another problem arises, such as the lubricant leaking and staining the transfer tape and the user's hands.

In order to solve the problem of the transfer head cover of the coating film transfer tool X, the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6 is proposed. In Patent Document 6, a cassette case that holds a delivery portion and a winding portion of a transfer tape, and has an opening that protrudes a transfer pressure portion (transfer head) for transferring a coating film to the outside, and a pair of opposed thin plate portions. There has been proposed a coating film transfer tool consisting of a moving case integrally provided with a coating film transfer tool. In the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6, the moving case is movable between the first position and the second position in the cassette case, and by moving the moving case from the second position to the first position, the pair of The opposing thin plate portions protrude from the opening, one of the pair of opposing thin plate portions covers the transfer tape before the coating film is transferred on the transfer pressing portion, and the other thin plate portion covers the base material after the coating film is transferred. Covering the tape, a pair of opposed thin plate portions are brought close to each other in front of the transfer pressing portion.

In the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6, by making the transfer head cover have such a structure, compared to the coating film transfer tool X, it is excellent in durability and smooth without using a complicated mechanism or lubricant. A pair of interlocking transfer head covers can be provided that can be opened and closed simultaneously.

However, although the coating film transfer tool of Patent Document 6 can have a simpler structure than the coating film transfer tool X, there is a problem that the entire coating film transfer tool becomes larger due to the provision of the transfer head cover. In particular, in a small-sized coating film transfer tool, the provision of a transfer head cover has caused a problem that the coating film transfer tool becomes much larger than a cassette without a transfer head cover.

A groove 6A is provided. By attaching the upper case 6 to the lower case 5 to which the transfer head cover 1 is attached, the other supporting shaft 1BA and the sliding shaft 1BB are inserted into the sliding groove 6A.

The outer diameter of the support shaft 1BA and the slide shaft 1BB is slightly smaller than the width of the slide grooves 5A and 6A, and the support shaft 1BA and the slide shaft 1BB can move while sliding in the slide grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, the transfer head cover 1 can slide along the sliding grooves 5A and 6A.

As shown in FIG. 2, the rear end of the slide plate 1B on which the sliding shaft 1BB is provided is separated by two slits into both ends on which the sliding shaft 1BB is provided and a central portion. is provided with a protrusion 1BC that protrudes toward the inside of the lower case 5 when the transfer head cover 1 is attached to the lower case 5. As shown in FIG. Hereinafter, regarding the sliding direction of the transfer head cover 1 and the shape of the transfer head cover, the front cover side is the front side, and the protrusion 1BC side is the rear side.

In FIG. 1, the transfer head cover 1 is at the rear, the transfer head 4 is not protected by the transfer head cover 1, and the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 is engaged with the engagement shaft 5B of the lower case 5 and the upper case. The transfer head cover 1 is temporarily fixed at the rear by engaging with the shaft 6B. FIG. 3 is a front view of the coating film transfer tool A with the transfer head cover 1 moved forward from the state shown in FIG. 1, with the upper case 6 removed. When trying to move the transfer head cover 1 from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. As described above, the rear end portion of the transfer head cover 1 provided with the sliding shaft 1BB is divided into three by the slit, so that the portion provided with the sliding shaft 1BB is independent from the other portions of the transfer head cover 1. It can be elastically deformed. Therefore, in the coating film transfer tool A, by adjusting the elasticity of the portion of the transfer head cover 1 where the sliding shaft 1BB is provided, the coating film transfer tool A can be moved from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. 3 with a relatively weak force. Alternatively, the state shown in FIG. 3 can be changed to the state shown in FIG. 1, and the transfer head cover 1 is placed in the state shown in FIG. It is designed so that it does not move unexpectedly and interfere with the user's coating film transfer.

In the coating film transfer tool A, projections having a substantially triangular cross-sectional shape are provided on both the front and rear sides of the transfer head cover 1 with the support shaft 1BA interposed therebetween. This substantially triangular protrusion protrudes outward when the transfer head cover 1 is attached to the coating film transfer tool A. As shown in FIG. This shape serves as a finger hook portion 1C when the user moves the transfer head cover 1 forward and backward to facilitate movement. The shape of the finger hooking portion 1C is not limited to the shape of the present embodiment, and may be any shape as long as the finger hooking portion 1C can be easily hooked to the transfer head cover 1. FIG. A user can easily move the transfer head cover 1 from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. Therefore, in the coating film transfer tool A, the user does not accidentally touch the transfer head 4 when moving the transfer head cover 1, and there is a risk that the coating film may be peeled off or damaged by touching the coating film surface of the tape. Nor. In the coating film transfer tool A, the transfer head cover 1 is of a type that slides, and is composed of only one slide plate 1B and a front cover 1A protruding from the slide plate 1B toward the inside of the case. Therefore, by providing the transfer head cover 1, there is no possibility that the transfer surface becomes difficult to see during use, and the coating film transfer tool does not become large.

While the transfer head cover 1 is moving from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. Alternatively, a wall is not provided in a portion of the upper case 6 that interferes with the protrusion 1BC. On the other hand, while the transfer head cover 1 is moving from the state shown in FIG. 1 to the state shown in FIG. It moves while being sandwiched between the sliding grooves 5A and 6A of the case 6. - 特許庁

When the transfer head cover 1 is moved further forward than in the state shown in FIG. Alternatively, it is provided on the upper case 6 . On the other hand, when the transfer head cover 1 is moved further forward than in the state of FIG. 5D and/or 6D are lost. When the transfer head cover is moved further forward than the state shown in FIG. 3, the coating film transfer tool A is in the state shown in FIG. Climb onto walls 5C and/or 6C. On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 4, the outer wall 5D and/or 6D of the two walls forming the sliding groove 5A and the sliding groove 6A into which the sliding shaft 1BB is inserted is eliminated. The sliding shaft 1BB is movable toward the outside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6. As shown in FIG. Further, the protruding portion 1BC is provided with an inclined surface 1BCA, and when the transfer head cover 1 is moved forward from the state shown in FIG. The portion 1BC easily rides on the walls 5C and/or 6C provided on the lower case 5 and/or the upper case 6 along the inclined surface 1BCA. As a result, when the transfer head cover 1 is moved further forward than the state shown in FIG. 3 to the state shown in FIG. 5 and the upper case 6 toward the outside.

In the process of moving the transfer head cover 1 further forward from the state of FIG. 3 to bring the coating film transfer tool A into the state of FIG. It slides between them. Further, when the coating film transfer tool A is in the state of FIG. The transfer head cover 1 is movable until the engaging projections 1AA provided on the transfer head cover 1 engage with the engaging grooves 4A provided on the transfer head 4. As shown in FIG. Therefore, by moving the transfer head cover 1 further forward than in the state shown in FIG. 3 to the state shown in FIG. When moved, the transfer head cover 1 rotates with the support shaft 1BA as the center of rotation. As the transfer head cover 1 rotates, the front side of the transfer head cover 1 relative to the support shaft 1BA moves toward the inside of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6 . As the forward side of the transfer head cover 1 relative to the support shaft 1BA moves toward the inner side of the lower case 5 and the upper case 6, the front cover 1A provided at the front end of the transfer head cover 1 moves toward the transfer head 4. As a result, the front end of the transfer head 4 is covered, and the engagement projection 1AA provided on the transfer head cover 1 engages with the engagement groove 4A provided on the transfer head 4. As shown in FIG. Since the front cover 1A of the coating film transfer tool A has a shape capable of covering not only the front of the tip of the transfer head but also both sides, the tip of the transfer head can be more securely covered and protected. can.

When the transfer head cover 1 changes from the state shown in FIG. 3 to the state shown in FIG. 4, the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 moves forward of the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A prevent the transfer head cover 1 from moving rearward. Therefore, when the transfer head cover 1 is in the state shown in FIG. 4, the transfer head cover is fixed at two points, that is, the engaging groove 4A provided in the transfer head 4 and the outer walls 5D and/or 6D of the sliding grooves 5A and 6A. Therefore, even if the coating film transfer tool A is accidentally dropped from the transfer head cover 1 side, the transfer head cover 1 will not easily come off from the transfer head 4 .

When the coating film transfer tool A is in the state shown in FIG. 4, the user puts his/her finger on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1 and moves the transfer head cover 1 so that a force acts on the rear side of the support shaft 1BA. When pressed, the rear side of the transfer head cover 1 relative to the support shaft 1BA is elastically deformed and shaped as shown in FIG. By elastically deforming the transfer head cover 1, the sliding shaft 1BB moves to a portion where there is no interfering wall 5D and/or 6D.

On the other hand, on the front side of the transfer head cover 1 with respect to the support shaft 1BA, the transfer head cover 1 is moved so that a force acts on the rear side of the support shaft 1BA when the user puts a finger on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1. When pressed, the front cover 1A rotates around the support shaft 1BA so that the tip of the transfer head 4 is no longer covered by the front cover 1A, and the engagement between the engagement projection 1AA of the front cover 1A and the engagement groove 4A of the transfer head 4 is released. be done. In this way, when the user puts his or her finger on the finger hook portion 1C of the transfer head cover 1 and presses the transfer head cover 1 so that a force acts on the rear side of the support shaft 1BA, the sliding shaft 1BB interferes. When the slide plate 1B is slid, the front cover 1A is disengaged from the engaging projection 1AA of the front cover 1A and the engaging groove 4A of the transfer head 4. Since 1A is moved to a position where it does not interfere with the transfer head 4, the transfer head cover 1 can be slid rearward.

When the transfer head cover 1 is slightly moved backward, the protrusions 1BC provided on the transfer head cover 1 interfere with the protrusions 1BC of the transfer head cover 1 provided on the lower case 5 and/or the upper case 6. Alternatively, the transfer head cover 1 reaches a position where there is no 6C, and the elastic deformation of the transfer head cover 1 is eliminated. Since the elastic deformation of the transfer head cover is released, even if the pressure on the transfer head cover is released in this state, the front part of the transfer head cover 1 relative to the support shaft 1BA does not move to the transfer head 4 side.

When the transfer head cover 1 is moved further rearward, the transfer head cover 1 is elastically deformed, and the sliding shaft 1BB of the transfer head cover 1 overcomes the engagement shaft 5B of the lower case 5 and the engagement shaft 6B of the upper case, 1BB is engaged with the engaging shaft 5B and the engaging shaft 6B, and the transfer head cover 1 is temporarily fixed at the rear as shown in FIG.

As described above, in the coating film transfer tool A of the present invention, the transfer head cover 1 having a simple structure can be slid by a simple operation, so that the transfer head cover is excellent in durability and can be smoothly opened and closed. can do.
