Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for producing a reflective fabric with a pattern.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in order to secure traffic safety, particularly traffic safety at night, a reflective tape (reflection sheet) which reflects a light beam of a vehicle or the like to alert a driver to a road sign, It is used for various things such as bicycles, bags, clothes and shoes.

Various types of reflective tapes (reflection sheets) A have been proposed and put to practical use. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, an adhesive layer 2, a reflective film 3, a glue layer 4, a spherical lens 5 and an air layer 6 are sequentially laminated on a liner 1 and the surface is covered with a transparent plastic film 7. It is available in tape form.

[0004]

However, most of the conventional reflection tape (reflection sheet) A is not manufactured as a long cloth but is manufactured as a single product having a small area in advance. Since it is attached to a part of the (finished product) by post-processing such as adhesion or sewing, not only the workability is poor and extra cost is required, but most of the colors are single color and the pattern is on the surface. There was nothing applied, and the added value was low and the range of use was narrow.

[0005]

The method for producing a reflective fabric with a patterned pattern according to the present invention was devised based on the above-mentioned actual situation, and the surface of the reflective fabric was coated with a resin such as vinyl chloride. above applied to the resin coated surface comprising a desired pattern pattern by ink coating resin and the same type by silk screen printing, on the surface of the reflective fabric
The printing surface with the ink and the resin coating surface are
The main idea is to manufacture a reflective fabric with a patterned pattern that mixes the exposed surface as it is and displays various patterned patterns on the surface.
It can be forgotten and also displays various patterns.
However, by mixing the light reflecting surface in the pattern,
Providing patterned reflective fabric with high light reflection efficiency throughout
It is something that can be done.

[0006]

With the patterned reflective fabric manufactured according to the present invention, the work of attaching the reflective fabric to the product can be partially used (using parts) instead of the conventional post-processing, and the product is immediately produced when the product is manufactured. Since it can be fed to the process, not only the workability can be greatly improved but also the production cost can be reduced.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. First, a resin coating 10 such as vinyl chloride is applied to the surface of a reflective fabric B. The reflective fabric B may have a structure as shown in FIG. 2 and may be formed into a wide or long product similar to a normal fabric.

A desired pattern pattern is printed on the surface of the resin coating 10 of the reflective fabric B as described above with an ink of the same system as the coating resin by a known silk screen printing method. A resin such as acrylic, polyurethane, polyester, or vinyl chloride is adopted as the resin coating 10 of the reflective fabric B, but the ink used for imparting a desired pattern is of the same system (acrylic, polyurethane, polyurethane). The reason for selecting the type of polyester, polyester, vinyl chloride) is that the ink used for silk screen printing is not of the same type as the surface resin.
This is because even if a curing agent is added and dried (molecules of each system in the ink are melted), the ink does not bite into the resin layer and peels off.

After the desired pattern 11 is printed by silk screen printing as described above, it is dried by a dryer to complete the printing of the pattern 11 on the resin coating 10 side of the reflective fabric B. Then, the above-mentioned in
The printed surface and the surface of the resin coating 10
It is a reflective fabric B with a patterned pattern in which the exposed surface is mixed.
It The design of the pattern 11 can be set arbitrarily, and one or two or more colors can be appropriately selected as the color arrangement for the pattern.

By the way, the above drying process (using a dryer)
The temperature is set in accordance with the material of the resin coating 10 (hence the ink system). For example, when the material is vinyl chloride, vinyl chloride ink is used, but in this case, the melting point and softening point are low, so it is dried at around 60 degrees Celsius (when the material and ink are polyester, the melting point and softening point are Is very high and the drying temperature is 140 degrees Celsius).

When the reflective fabric B with a pattern pattern manufactured by the method of the present invention is attached to clothes or personal items, for example, when it is attached to a suit C, as shown in FIGS. , Chest pocket 13, waist lid 14
Etc., the mounting portion is appropriately selected, and the reflecting cloth b is cut from the reflecting cloth B in accordance with the dimensions of the above respective parts according to the pattern paper. Then, these reflective cloths b are sewn to the respective parts as a material of the suit cloth, that is, as a partial use (use of parts) in the product manufacturing process.

As described above, since the reflective cloth B printed with the pattern 11 produced according to the present invention is partially cut and used in place of the conventionally used material, it is used in a product process such as a suit C. The reflective fabric B can be shredded as it is and integrated into an appropriate portion of the product. Therefore, unlike conventional products, there is no need to attach or sew reflective tape (reflection sheet) as post-processing after product completion, so it can be passed to the production process immediately at the product manufacturing stage. Can be significantly increased, and the production cost can be reduced. When the reflective fabric B is cut, a special cutting tool such as a disc cutter is used instead of ordinary scissors , so that even a millimeter unit can be cut accurately without fraying. In addition, by incorporating the reflective fabric B manufactured by the present invention into a product and sewing the product, the design effect is enhanced as an accent in the daytime, and the vehicle light is reflected at the nighttime to call the driver's attention to ensure the traffic safety. be able to.

The reflective fabric B manufactured according to the present invention can be used as it is as a material for not only clothes such as suit C and school uniforms but also personal belongings such as bags, shoes, umbrellas and hats. Can be significantly expanded.

Also, a reflective fabric B produced according to the present invention.
The pattern does not drop or bleed even after washing, and the resin coating 10 layer on the surface has high heat resistance and can be ironed sufficiently, and can withstand long-term use.

[0015]

According to the present invention , a wide cloth similar to ordinary cloth
Or, it is possible to easily manufacture a reflective fabric with a patterned pattern of a long object and to display various patterned patterns on the surface.
In addition, even if various patterns are displayed,
By mixing the reflective surface in the pattern, the light ray
It is possible to obtain a reflective fabric with a patterned pattern having high shooting efficiency.
