2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional method of sealing flowers, for example, a heat method, a glass direct method, a pack method and the like are known. Here, in the heat type, as shown in FIG. 6, a flower 103 is arranged on a cloth 101, and a cloth film 102 is placed on the flower 103.
This is a method of quickly applying an iron adjusted to a high temperature to seal the flowers. In addition, as shown in FIG. 7, the glass direct method is a method of glass 111 from the glass side of the frame toward the pressing plate side.
, Flower 112, mount 113, desiccant 114, fixing agent for desiccant 1
15. The method of sealing flowers is that the push plate 116 is arranged in that order. Further, in the pack type, as shown in FIG. 8, from the front side to the back side, transparent acrylic 121, flowers 122, urethane 123, mount 124, and desiccant 125 are arranged in that order,
This is a method of sealing flowers by wrapping the periphery with a film 126 and heat-sealing the outer peripheral edge of the film 126.

[0003]

However, the conventional heat-sealing method for sealing flowers has the following problems. It takes a great deal of skill to make each and every one of the flowers 103 beautiful in every detail, as the iron, which has been adjusted to a high temperature, must be applied quickly. Not suitable for mass production due to ironing. The flowers are not completely sealed and bonded,
Since the film 102 itself is thin, the color of the flowers cannot be preserved in a state close to nature for a long time. It is suitable for forming pressed flowers on relatively small things such as postcards and cards, but not suitable for forming large pressed flowers such as pressed flowers for picture frames.

Further, the method of sealing flowers by the glass direct method has the following problems. Since the desiccant 114 for absorbing the moisture of the flower 112 is arranged inside the back side of the frame, the frame becomes thick and the weight of the frame as a whole becomes large, which may be difficult to handle. In order to fix the desiccant 114 inside the frame so that it does not move, a fixing material 115 such as urethane must be inserted, and the desiccant 114 must be replaced regularly, which is troublesome and troublesome. Is. The flowers 112 through the glass are greatly affected by direct sunlight, and the frame itself is not completely sealed, so
It is more difficult to preserve the color of the flower for a long period of time in a state close to nature as compared with the heat method described above.

Further, the method of sealing the flowers by the pack method has the following problems. Desiccant 125 for absorbing moisture of flower 122, flower
Since the urethane 123 etc. for smoothing the unevenness of the 122 is arranged, the overall thickness becomes large, so it is difficult to use it for things that are moved and used like a fan. Since the periphery is wrapped with the film 126 and the outer peripheral edge of the film 126 is heat-sealed, it is possible to preserve the color of the flower for a long time in a state closer to nature than the heat-sealing method or the direct glass method described above. Takes too much. Further, since the transparent acrylic 121 or the like is required, the material cost becomes high. The urethane 123 plays a role of fixing the flowers, but cannot fix them completely, and therefore the flowers may move and the pattern may change. In view of such circumstances, the present invention is thin and elastic, has a beautiful finish of details, can be preserved for a long period of time in a state close to a natural color, and is excellent in transparency and can show flowers brightly. An object of the present invention is to provide a hermetically-sealing method and a herbal-sealing adhesive product produced by the method.

[0006]

The method for hermetically sealing a flower of the present invention is a method of sticking a flower to a mount and hermetically adhering the flower with a heat-fusible film, wherein the collected flower is pressed while being dried. The first step, the second step of temporarily adhering the pressed flowers to the surface of the mount, and the two sides of the mount with the flowers temporarily adhered to the surface, and two heats that are larger than the mount and have substantially the same shape. The third step of sandwiching the fusible film and the heated rubber roller heat seal the two heat fusible films on both sides of the mount, respectively, and heat the ends of the two heat fusible films. It is characterized by comprising a fourth step of sealing and hermetically adhering the flowers. In addition, the hermetically sealed adhesive product of the present invention comprises a first surface-forming adhesive product.
It is characterized in that it is heat-sealed by a heat-fusible film having a three-layer structure formed of a layer, a third layer forming a heat-meltable back surface and a second layer connecting the first layer and the third layer.

[0007]

According to the method of hermetically sealing a flower of the present invention, the collected flower is pressed while being dried, and is temporarily adhered to the surface of the mount, and then heat-sealed with a heat-fusible film to hermetically adhere the flower. You can In the hermetically sealed adhesive product of the present invention, a heat-fusible film having a three-layer structure including a third layer that is melted by heat is used, and the third layer is melted by a heated rubber roller. Since the components of the layer penetrate into the flower and the mount, the flower is completely hermetically bonded without a gap between the mount and the heat-fusible film.

EXAMPLE Next, an example in which the flower-sealed hermetically-bonded product produced by the flower-sealed hermetically-sealed method of the present invention is used for a fan body will be described with reference to the drawings. 1, the main body 1 of the fan A
A plan view of a case where a flower is hermetically adhered to the surface of is shown. The shape and the like of the fan A are the same as those on the market, and the handle 2 is attached to the fan body 1.

As shown in FIG. 2, the fan main body 1 is composed of a flower 3, a mount 4, an adhesive 5 and a heat-fusible film 6. As the flower 3 was used, which was dried and pressed by an electric pressing device as described later. If the mount 4 is dry and has heat resistance,
There is no particular limitation, and any material such as dust paper, Japanese paper, cardboard, cloth, etc. can be used, but in this embodiment, about 0.3 mm of cardboard was used from the viewpoint of hermetically bonding the flowers 3 to the fan body 1.

The adhesive 5 is used for temporarily adhering the flowers 3 to the mount 4, and is preferably an adhesive having a minimum water content. That is, as will be described later, since the warmed rubber roller passes over the adhesive 5, if water vapor is generated from the adhesive 5 when passing through the rubber roller, the water vapor does not completely bond the film and the mount or the films together. This is because the finish is poor and the flowers corrode due to moisture. From this point of view, a bond for woodworking was used in this example.

The heat-fusible film 6 is, as shown in FIG. 3, a first layer 61, 110-120 forming a glossy surface.
3 formed from a third layer 63 that forms a semi-transparent back surface that melts with heat of ℃ and a second layer 62 that connects the first layer 61 and the third layer 63
Generally has a layered structure, but the second layer and the third layer
A two-layer structure having integrated layers is also commercially available. In this embodiment, the first layer 61 is polyester and the second layer 62 is
3 layer structure using special polyethylene for the 3rd layer and polyethylene and Surlyn resin compound for the 3rd layer 63.
A 100 micron heat fusible film was used.

Next, the following procedure is used to hermetically bond the flowers 3 in the fan body 1. First, the collected flowers are passed through an electric pressing device, and the flowers are pressed while being dried. As shown in FIG. 4, the electric flower pressing device 20 has a flower sheet 21, urethane 22, two small flower papers 23 and 24, and a flower sheet 25 arranged in that order from the upper side to the lower side. A heat ray heater (not shown) is attached to the outside of the flower sheets 21 and 25. Therefore, when the flower 3 collected between the two small flower papers 23 and 24 is sandwiched, the flower 3 is pressed while being dried. Next, as shown in FIG. 2, the adhesive 5 is applied to a part of the back surface of the dried and pressed flower 3, and the flower 3 is temporarily adhered to the mount 4. Next, both sides of the mount 4 are surrounded by a heat-fusible film 6 similar to the mount 4 and slightly larger than the mount 4. Finally, the heat-fusible films 6 surrounding both sides of the mount 4 are passed through a heated rubber roller to heat-seal the heat-fusible films 6 on both sides of the mount 4, and The edges of 6 are heat-sealed to hermetically bond the flower 3. That is, the third layer 63 of the heat-fusible film 6 is sequentially melted by the movement of the rubber roller,
Since the resin of the third layer 63 penetrates into the flowers 3 and the mount 4, the flowers 3 are completely sealed and bonded between the mount 4 and the heat-fusible film 6.

If the heat-fusible film 6 can be heat-sealed, it can be used in any heat-sealing device without particular limitation. MS pouch H-320Z manufactured by Meiko Shokai was used. Further, in this embodiment, the heat-fusible films 6 are heat-sealed on both sides of the mount 4, respectively, but it is also possible to heat-seal only on one side of the mount 4. However, if only one side of the mount 4 is heat-sealed, air, moisture, etc. will flow in and out from the surface of the mount 4 which is not heat-sealed, and the fading of the flowers will progress and the color retention will be lacking. Limited Therefore, from the viewpoints of long-term storage of the color of flowers and expansion of applications, it is preferable to heat-seal both sides of the mount 4 as in the present embodiment. Further, it is possible to cut the adhesive part between the films around the mount 4 and to bond the film only to a part of the mount 4, but since the sealing is not sufficient, such as long-term storage of flowers and the like. From the viewpoint, it is preferable to heat-seal both sides of the mount with a film slightly larger than the mount 4 as in this embodiment.

According to the above procedure, the flower 3 is completely sealed and adhered, so that the color of the flower 3 can be preserved in a state close to natural for a long period of time, and the flower-sealed adhesive product exhibits an excellent waterproof effect. You can Further, since a desiccant is not required, an extremely thin and highly elastic adhesive product for herbaceous flowers can be produced, so that it can also be used for things that can be moved and used like the fan body 1.
Moreover, since the resin of the third layer 63 of the heat-fusible film 6 dissolves in the flowers 3 and the mount 4, it has excellent transparency.
Can be shown vividly. In addition, in this embodiment, the case where the hermetically sealed adhesive product is used for the fan main body 1 has been described.
Besides, frame, photo frame, card, postcard, coaster,
Since it can be used as a table cloth, a magazine rack decoration, a calendar decoration, or the like, and can also be used as an umbrella of a lighting stand by thinning the mount 4, it has a wide range of applications.

Next, a flower-sealed hermetically-sealed product according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described. Although the plain mount 4 is used in the above embodiment, a patterned mount may be used. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, a daughter's silhouette 10 is drawn on a mount 4, and flowers 3 are used as decorations for hair and hats.
Can be used. In this embodiment, the flowers are incorporated into the mount on which the silhouette is drawn, but the flowers and the landscape can be incorporated into the mount with a pattern in which the silhouette is drawn in addition to the silhouette. Can be created.

[0016]

According to the method of hermetically sealing and bonding a flower of the present invention, since the flower that is pressed while being dried is heat-sealed to the mount to hermetically bond, the color of the flower can be preserved in a state close to natural, and a thin flower A hermetically sealed product can be produced. Further, the flower-sealed hermetically-bonded product of the present invention is completely sealed and completely adhered by the three-layer heat-sealable film,
The color of the flowers can be preserved for a long period of time, and an excellent waterproof effect can be exhibited. Moreover, since the components of the third layer dissolve in the flowers and the mount, the flowers are excellent in transparency and the flowers can be made to look vivid. Furthermore, since a variety of flower-sealed adhesive products can be made by using the patterned mount, it is possible to provide a flower-sealed adhesive product that is versatile and has many hobbies.
