Abstract

PURPOSE:To produce resin parts for watches having external appearance practically equal to that of parts for watches made of metal by allowing a Cu-Al- Fe-Ni-Mn alloy layer to adhere to the surface of parts for watches made of resin material. CONSTITUTION:For example, polyacetal material is subjected to injection molding to prepare a resin hand 1 for watches. The hand 1 is set in a resistance heating vapor deposition apparatus, where respective layers of silicon monoxide 2 and Cu-Al-Fe-Ni-Mn alloy (in which Cu:Al:Fe:Ni:Mn is regulated to about 85:9.5:2.5:2.5:0.5) 3 are allowed to adhere to the hand 1 in succession. By this method, the surface of the resin hand 1 can be covered with gold color and external appearance practically equal to that of metallic hand can be provided.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] In recent years, in order to further reduce the cost of watches, watch parts have been transitioning from metal materials to resin materials that can be easily molded to a ratio of 1:-19 by injection molding. However, resin parts cannot be used as is after molding, and it is necessary to add decorative effects (color and gloss) to the appearance. In particular, shiny gold and silver colors are essential for watch parts such as hands and dials at the product level. For this reason, wet plating methods and vapor deposition methods have been proposed to provide these decorative effects, but both methods require the use of gold (Au) to obtain the gold color, reducing the cost from the unit price of gold. This was a major barrier to its realization. Therefore, the present invention was devised in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to use a dry plating method on molded resin parts to replace the remaining material with Cu (#

The above-mentioned problem of cost reduction can be easily solved by depositing an alloy of Mn (manganese) and Mn (nickel).

[Means for Solving the Problems] The resin part for a watch of the present invention is a part for a watch made of a resin material, and includes Cu-AL-Fe-Ni-Mn on the surface of the resin material.
It is characterized by having an alloy layer attached thereto.

[Example 1l] An injection molded polyacetal resin needle was set in a resistance heating vapor deposition machine, and silicon monoxide, Cu-AL-Fe-
A Ni-Mn alloy was deposited. A cross-sectional structural diagram of this resin needle is shown in FIG. In Figure 1, 1 is a polyacetal molding needle, 2 is silicon monoxide, and 3 is Cu-AL-Fe-

In order to examine the durability of this needle, it was left in a constant temperature bath at 60° CX 90% for 10 days and then subjected to a peel test using cellophane tape, but the adhesion was good and there was no damage to the appearance.

[Example-2] Similar to Example-1, Cu-A1-F was applied to the polyacetal needle.
e-Ni-Mn was deposited. An example of the cost at the time of production is shown below. The state of the polyacetal molding needles after injection is shown in Figure 2, with 8 needles per block.
When set in a dimensional vapor deposition machine, 50 blocks can be set and the total number is 400. When processing using a gold material based on this, if the gold film thickness is fixed at 1000, a log amount of gold vapor deposition material is required.

Looking at this in terms of cost, the unit price of gold is 1,700 yen per gram, so each needle costs 42.5 yen. On the other hand, since the unit price of this material (Cu-AI-Fe-Ni-Mn) is 300 yen per gram, the cost per needle is 7.5 yen.
It only costs yen.

[Example 3] Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional structural view of the dial of a wristwatch manufactured according to the present invention, where 5 is a Cu-Al-Fe-NIMn alloy film or resin dial, and 6 is a needle bearing hole. .. The method for producing this dial is the same as in Example-1, and first, the dial obtained by injection is thoroughly cleaned and set in an electron beam evaporator.
