Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a transfer tool for transferring a coating film on a transfer tape onto paper or the like, and more particularly, to a storage device for storing used tape by utilizing the rotation of a rotating unit. The present invention relates to a transfer tool provided with means.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a coating material such as a modifying agent, a pressure-sensitive adhesive, or a coloring agent is provided on a base material such as paper or film having releasability, processed into a tape shape, and transferred onto a paper surface or the like. Corrector, adhesive,
A transfer tool that transfers a colorant by pressing under pressure is known.

In the transfer tool, a supply reel and a take-up reel are arranged side by side and rotatably on the same surface in a main body having a head at one end, and are wound around the supply reel. The mounted transfer tape is folded back through the head end portion, and the folded portion is moved while being pressed against an object to be transferred, such as a sheet of paper, so that a correcting agent or an adhesive on the tape base material is moved. Is transferred to the paper surface, and the supply tape is moved by moving the transfer tape.
At this time, the gear provided on the supply reel rotates, and at the same time, the gear provided on the take-up reel meshes with the take-up reel.
Generally, the tape after the transfer is wound up by rotating the tape.

[0004]

However, in such a structure, in order to bring the head into close contact with the movement, straightness in the body angle and the movement direction is required. Also, since the drive of the supply reel is transmitted to the take-up reel to drive the take-up reel, it is necessary to make the gear larger than the tape diameter. There was a problem that it would decrease.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a transfer tool with a simple structure that can transfer images reliably and has improved design flexibility.

[0006]

According to the present invention, in order to achieve the above object, a transfer tape in which a coating film is provided on one side of a substrate and one end of the transfer tape are wound in a main body. In a transfer tool comprising a supply reel and a storage means for storing a used transfer tape, and a head for transferring the transfer coating film to an object to be transferred, the transfer tool is provided at or near the head. In addition to the provision of a rotating part which rotates in contact with an object, a storage means for storing used tape by utilizing the rotation of the rotating part is provided in the main body.

[0007] At least a part of the head portion is made of an elastic body.

Further, the head section has a transfer section in the center,
It is configured as a rotating body having rotating parts disposed on both sides thereof.

[0009]

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The storage means may be a known method for storing a tape, such as a take-up reel for winding a tape or a method of sandwiching and feeding a tape between two feeding members. Just choose. Further, the method of feeding used tape to the storage means for storing the used tape by using the rotation of the rotating section is performed by using a mechanism such as a gear mechanism provided with a gear meshing with the rotating section and the storing means or a mechanism connecting the belt by a belt or the like. A well-known method of rotating in conjunction may be appropriately selected. Since the used tape is stored by transferring the rotation of the rotating part, it is not necessary to make the gear larger than the tape diameter unlike the related art, so that the degree of freedom in design is improved.

A rotating portion is provided at or near the head. The shape of the rotating portion may be any shape such as a cylindrical shape or a polygonal column shape, which can be rotated by movement during transfer, as appropriate. The rotation of the rotating unit facilitates setting of the body angle and the moving direction.

The head section has a transfer section in the center and a rotating section on both sides thereof, so that the used tape can be stored only by using the rotation of the rotating section regardless of the shape of the transfer section. The means can be driven. Further, the outer diameter of the rotating part and the outer diameter of the transfer part are set to be substantially the same so that both come into contact with the surface to be transferred during transfer.

The elastic material is made of an elastomer (styrene type, olefin type, ester type, nitrile type, urethane type, vinyl chloride type, etc.), silicone rubber, other synthetic rubber, natural rubber, cork, etc. A known elastic body such as a piece may be appropriately selected. In addition, by forming at least a part of the head with an elastic body, if there is some unevenness on the surface to be transferred, or the elastic body may be compressed and deformed by pressing operation without setting the transfer angle strictly. Thus, the coating film can be reliably transferred.

[0013] A mechanism for preventing reverse rotation of the supply reel and / or the storage means, for example, a mechanism using a locking portion and a locking claw that locks only in reverse rotation without locking in forward rotation, and the like are known. A mechanism for preventing reverse rotation can be appropriately selected and provided. The provision of the rotation preventing mechanism is preferable because the reel does not rotate even if it is erroneously compressed and moved in the direction opposite to the transfer direction.

The base material of the transfer tape includes a capacitor paper,
Paper base such as glassine paper, polyester film, cellulose film, acetate film, polyethylene film, polypropylene film, polyimide film,
A known substrate such as a plastic substrate such as a polyethylene naphthalate film may be appropriately selected. Further, a coating agent provided on one side of the substrate may be appropriately selected from a modifying agent, an adhesive, a coloring agent, and the like in accordance with the substrate.

[0015] A release layer may be provided between the substrate and the coating film, or the substrate itself may be subjected to a release treatment. Further, a transfer tape used for a known transfer tool can be used, for example, a layer having other functions can be provided in addition to the base material and the coating film, such as providing an adhesive layer on the outermost layer. .

Either a transparent or opaque body may be used, but a transparent body is preferable in consideration of workability because the remaining amount of the tape and a work place can be easily confirmed.

[0017]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The transfer tool 1 according to the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3 has pressure-adhesiveness to a base material made of a polyester film obtained by subjecting columns 7 and 8 disposed in a main body 2 to a release treatment. A supply reel 3 on which a transfer tape 6 having an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive layer is wound, and a winding reel for winding the transfer tape 6 after the transfer.
This is an adhesive tool that rotatably supports the screw 4 and projects a cylindrical head 5 made of an olefin-based elastomer so that the cylindrical head 5 is rotatably protruded from the tip of the main body 2 by a support 5d. The head 5 integrally has a transfer portion 5a at the center and a rotating portion 5b having a gear portion 5c on both side surfaces, and the outer diameter of the rotating portion and the outer diameter of the transfer portion are substantially the same.

The transfer tape 6 is fed out from the supply reel 3, guided by guide pins 9a, 9b and 9c, passed through the transfer section 5a of the head 5, and passed through the take-up reel 4. .

A known reverse rotation preventing mechanism such as a ratchet can be used to prevent the reverse rotation of the winding reel 4. In this embodiment, a locking portion (not shown) is provided on the inner wall of the main body. The take-up reel 4 is provided with locking claws (not shown) which can be disengaged from the locking portions. The engaging portion and the engaging claw are provided on a winding reel 4.
Is not locked in the winding direction (clockwise), but locked only in the opposite direction. The arrangement position of the mechanism for preventing reverse rotation is not limited to the take-up reel 4, but may be appropriately selected to a member that transmits and rotates to the rotation of the rotating portion 5b, for example, a storage unit or a conductive member. Can be provided.

At the time of transfer, the transfer portion 5a of the head 5 is pressed against the transfer portion of the transfer surface 10 and moved (in the direction of arrow A1), whereby the transfer layer of the adhesive layer of the transfer tape 6 is peeled off from the base material. Is transferred to a transfer location on the transfer surface 10. At this time, even if the main body 2 is pressed with a slight inclination, it can be absorbed by the compression deformation of the elastic body.

The rotating portion 5b having the gear 5c rotates (clockwise) simultaneously with the movement during transfer. Gear 5 of rotating part 5b
c meshes with the gear 11a of the first conductive member 11 rotatably provided on the column as the conductive means to rotate (counterclockwise) the first conductive member 11a. Similarly, the gears 12a, 13a of the second and third conductive members 12, 13 rotatably provided on the column.
As a result, they rotate (clockwise and counterclockwise) in conjunction with each other. The gear 13a of the third conductive member 13 meshes with the gear 4a of the winding reel 4, and rotates the winding reel 4 (clockwise).
Then, the used transfer tape 6 is wound up. Transferring text
By the movement of the tape, an unused transfer tape 6 is transported from the supply reel 3, and an unused transfer tape is always transported to the transfer section 5 a of the head 5.

During the transfer, the rotating force of the rotating portion 5b is constant, while the tape outer diameter of the winding reel 4 changes with time and increases. For this reason, the winding speed of the winding reel 4 becomes faster than the rotating speed of the rotating portion 5b with time, so that the rotating speeds of the rotating portion 5b and the winding reel are not synchronized, and thus the winding reel is not rotated. The rotational torque applied to the rule 4 also gradually increases.

The winding reel 4 comprises a rotating member 4b having a gear 4a and a winding member 4c wound with a tape. A friction member 4d is mounted between the rotating member 4b and the winding member 4c. . When the rotation torque exceeds the frictional force of the friction member 4d, the winding member 4c slides and rotates.
The rotation speed of b and the winding speed of the winding reel 4 can be synchronized. The means for synchronizing the rotation speed and the winding speed is not limited to the means of the above-described mechanism, and any known means for synchronizing the rotation speed can be appropriately selected and used.

The transfer tool 21 in the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 has a white correction coating layer formed on a base made of a polyester film obtained by subjecting a support 27 disposed in a main body 22 to a release treatment. A transfer tape having a transfer layer formed thereon and further having an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive layer having pressure-adhesive properties thereon
Is rotatably supported on the supply reel 23 on which the cylindrical gear part 2 is formed of urethane-based elastomer.
This is a correction tool in which a head 25 having 5c is protruded from a tip of a main body 22 so as to be rotatable on a support 25d. The head 25 has a transfer portion 25a at the center and rotating portions 25b at both sides.

The transfer tape 26 is fed out from the supply reel 23, guided by guide pins 29a, 29b and 29c, passed through the transfer section 25a of the head 25, and then transferred to the gears 15a and 25a.
It is sent out to the storage chamber 14 by the holding members 15 and 16 having 16a.

Embodiment 1 for preventing reverse rotation of the sandwiching member 16
Similarly to the above, a locking portion (not shown) is provided on the inner wall of the main body, and a locking claw (not shown) which can be engaged with and disengaged from the locking portion is provided on the sandwiching member 16. The locking portion and the locking claw are not locked in the supply direction (clockwise) of the supply reel, but are locked only in the opposite direction.

At the time of transfer, the transfer portion of the head 25 is pressed against the transfer portion of the transfer surface 30 and moves (in the direction of arrow A2), so that the transfer layer of the correction paint layer of the transfer tape 26 is made of a base material with an adhesive layer. It is further separated and transferred to the transfer location on the transfer receiving surface 30. At this time, even if the main body 22 is slightly inclined and pressed, it can be absorbed by the compression deformation of the elastic body.

The head 25 rotates (clockwise) simultaneously with the movement during transfer. The gear 25c of the rotating portion meshes with the gear 31a of the first conductive member 31 rotatably provided in the main body 22 as a conductive means, and rotates the first conductive member 31 (counterclockwise). Similarly provided second and third conductive members 32, 3
The third gears 32a, 33a rotate (clockwise and counterclockwise) in conjunction with each other. The gear 33a of the third conductive member 33 meshes with the gear 15a of the
5 is rotated (clockwise). Further, the gears 15a and 16a mesh with the rotation of the holding member 15, and the holding member 16 is rotated (counterclockwise) to feed the used transfer tape 26 to the holding chamber 14. An unused transfer tape 26 is transported from the supply reel 23 by the movement of the tape at the time of transfer, and an unused transfer tape is always transported to the transfer section of the head 25.

The provision of the sandwiching members 15 and 16 is preferable because the feed amount of the transfer tape 26 becomes constant. Further, the provision of the accommodating chamber 14 for accommodating the used transfer tape in the main body eliminates the necessity of a take-up reel, which has been conventionally required, leading to a reduction in the number of parts and a reduction in cost. It is preferred.

A transfer tool 41 according to a third embodiment shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 is a white correction paint on a base material made of a polyester film in which columns 47 and 48 disposed in a main body 42 are subjected to a release treatment. Transfer layer having a pressure-sensitive adhesive pressure-sensitive adhesive layer formed thereon.
Supply reel 43 wound with a tape 46 and a transfer tape after the transfer.
A take-up reel 44 for winding the tape 46 is rotatably supported, and an octagonal column-shaped head 45 made of an olefin-based elastomer is rotatably projecting from the tip of the main body 42 on a support 45d. It is a corrective tool. The head 45 has a transfer portion 45a at the center and rotating portions 45 at both sides.
b.

In order to prevent reverse rotation of the winding reel 44, a locking portion (not shown) is provided on the inner wall of the main body in the same manner as in Embodiments 1 and 2, and the supply reel is engaged with and disengaged from the locking portion. A possible pawl (not shown) is provided. The locking portion and the locking claw are not locked in the winding direction (clockwise) of the winding reel, but are locked only in the opposite direction.

The transfer tape 46 is fed out from the supply reel 43, guided by guide pins 49a and 49b, passed through the transfer section 45a and passed to the take-up reel 44.

At the time of transfer, the transfer portion 45a is pressed against the transfer portion of the transfer surface 50 and moved (in the direction of arrow A3), whereby the transfer layer of the correction paint layer of the transfer tape 46 is peeled off from the base material by the adhesive layer. Is transferred to a transfer location on the transfer surface 50. At this time, even if the main body 42 is slightly inclined and pressed, it can be absorbed by the compression deformation of the elastic body.

The head 45 rotates simultaneously (clockwise) with the movement during transfer. The rotation of the head 45 rotates the take-up reel 44 by the belt 17 connecting the head 45 and the take-up reel 44 as a conduction means, and takes up the used transfer tape 46. Supply reel 4 by moving the tape during transfer
3 transfers an unused transfer tape 46 to the head 45.
An unused transfer tape is always conveyed to the transfer section. Further, as in the first embodiment, the take-up reel 44 includes a rotating member 44.
a and a winding member 44b wound with a tape, and a friction member 44c is mounted between the rotating member 44a and the winding member 44b. When the rotating torque exceeds the frictional force of the friction member 44c, the winding member 44b slides and rotates. Therefore, the rotation speed of the rotating member 44a and the winding speed of the winding reel 44 are synchronized.

The tape used for the transfer tool of the above embodiment is not particularly limited, and a tape used for a known transfer tool can be appropriately selected, and has another function. It is needless to say that the tape can be used for various transfer tools such as an adhesive tool, a correction tool, and a coloring tool.

[0036]

According to the transfer tool of the present invention, by providing the rotating portion, the angle of the main body and the straightness can be easily set, and the rotation of the rotating portion drives the storage means for storing the tape. By doing so, there is an advantage that a transfer tool with improved design flexibility can be provided with a simple structure. Also,
Even if the main body is pressed with a slight inclination, it can be absorbed by the compressive deformation of the elastic body, so that a certain pressing force can be given, so that there is an advantage that the coating film can be surely transferred.
