Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention provides a method for copying plate-shaped or sticker-shaped nameplates used for various devices, parts, name tags, and other display means from any original document and manufacturing them based on the copies. Concerning a nameplate manufacturing method.

Conventionally, in order to manufacture nameplates, the main body of the plate-shaped nameplate is engraved using an engraving method. 1
Prepare the character plate in advance, set the dial plate in the engraving machine according to the number of characters to be engraved, and engrave the name plate body made of acrylic material to be engraved. When completed, remove the hindlimb nameplate. Nameplates are manufactured in this way.

In addition, when engraving characters of different sizes, large and small, on the same nameplate, the engraving machine must be reset for enlargement and reduction at any time.

Furthermore, to the parts of characters etc. that have been engraved as described above,
Paint of a desired color, such as black, is applied with a brush or the like, or the parts such as letters are completed.

-3- Also, after the paint on the parts such as letters has dried, paint such as white is applied to the back side of the nameplate body, and the manufacture of the nameplate is completed.

In order to manufacture one plate-shaped nameplate, it must be manufactured according to the steps described above, which requires time and effort, and it is necessary to use five engraving machines every time the contents of the nameplate are changed. Since the dial plate must be changed, it is difficult to suddenly change the written content. As described above, engraved nameplates are suitable for mass production of items with the same display, and are unsuitable for production of a wide variety of products in small quantities.

Furthermore, for nameplates, the same or similar characters are printed on a transparent film, etc. in advance, and this is attached to the sort using an adhesive, and then peeled off when used. However, since it is manufactured using a printing method, it is suitable for mass production of items with the same label due to price and labor considerations, and it is suitable for producing large quantities of items with the same label, and it is necessary to produce many types of items in small quantities at a cost per labor etc. Therefore, when used for modern electronic devices and their attached parts, it is necessary to respond immediately to the situation at the site, so the number of sticker nameplates available is very limited. It has some defects.

Therefore, in consideration of the above-mentioned facts, the present invention firstly produces a nameplate original plate simply by copying an arbitrary manuscript that can be freely selected and produced using an electronic copying machine, and then uses this to make a nameplate. A nameplate original is manufactured by thermally transferring it to the main body, or, in the case of a roll-shaped nameplate, by reversing the desired original with an electronic copying machine as described above, and then applying a nameplate backing body such as a coating layer or a plate. Nameplates that can be easily and quickly manufactured even in small quantities when necessary, and can be manufactured in large quantities to meet demands, and that can be manufactured in large quantities and are no inferior to conventional nameplates. This was developed for the purpose of providing a manufacturing method for a nameplate, and its gist is as follows: (1) A synthetic resin film that can be copied using an electronic copying machine can be used to write arbitrary characters that should be written on a nameplate on an arbitrary manuscript. A method for producing a nameplate comprising the steps of: manufacturing a nameplate original by copying the original nameplate; and thermally transferring the relevant part of the nameplate original to be written on the nameplate by pressing and heating it from the back side onto the nameplate body.

(2) A process of manufacturing a nameplate original plate by reversing arbitrary characters that should be written on the nameplate from an arbitrary original on a transparent synthetic resin film that can be copied with an electronic copying machine, and what should be written on the nameplate of the nameplate original plate. The method of manufacturing a nameplate includes the step of applying a nameplate backing to the back side of the relevant part.

In order to further clarify the gist of the present invention described above,
An embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Figures 1 and 2 show the first embodiment, in which a plate-shaped nameplate A is manufactured. , manuscripts electronically sent by Fuji EIJ, manuscripts printed on printers output from electronic storage devices such as personal computers and word processors, and arbitrary manuscripts 2 that are displayed not only in black and white but also in color. The electronic copying machine 1, which can be used for normal copying as well as enlargement and reduction, is placed at a predetermined location in the normal copying state with the display surface to be printed facing downward, and a presser plate is placed on it to press it. Then, when a transparent or translucent synthetic resin film 3 for copying, which can be copied by the electronic copying machine 1 and is normally used for copying, is supplied from the paper feed section and the electronic copying machine 1 is turned on, an arbitrary document 2 can be printed. Characters are copied, 30 copied characters
This step is completed by producing a nameplate original 81 having the following. Of course, the nameplate original plate 81 may be one in which various characters 30 are copied onto a single film 8 as shown in FIG. 2. The side that has been pressed is brought into contact with the relatively thick nameplate body 4 made of transparent acrylic material, and then the corresponding character 3 of the nameplate body 31 is pressed.
When pressed and heated with the heating member 5 having a normal ironing function from the side where 0 is not copied, the characters 30 written with toner on the nameplate body 31 are transferred onto the nameplate body 4 made of a transparent acrylic plate. thermally transferred.

In addition, as shown in the figure, in the case where "reset" is written in three places on one nameplate original plate 31, and when only one place is thermally transferred as shown in the drawing, other non-transfer characters 80', 8
0' remains written as is, so nameplate original 8
By storing 1, you can use it immediately when needed.

(8) Step of applying a coating layer: For example, if the heat-transferred characters 801 are black, spray a white paint 61 of the opposite color onto the back side of the heat-transferred characters 301 of the nameplate body produced in the above steps. Platy nameplate A is completed by spraying with gun 6 and providing coating layer 62.

As explained above, for example, if the character 80 that you want to write on the nameplate A as described above is "reset", in the conventional method, the four dials of "su", "se", "tsu", and "to" are written on the nameplate A. According to the present invention, the plate and the nameplate main body are set in an engraving machine at the same time, and the characters on the dial plate are engraved by tracing them. A nameplate original plate 31 is created by copying the manuscript onto a synthetic resin film using an electronic copying machine, and the characters 30 written on this are thermally transferred onto the nameplate body 4 by suppressing heating, and furthermore, the characters 80 are The plate-shaped nameplate A is completed by applying a coating layer for clear display to the back side of the characters 30, so when manufacturing so-called high-variety, small-quantity nameplates with different characters to be written on each sheet, it is easy to use when necessary. , can be manufactured quickly, can be manufactured even at work sites, such as when working on electronic equipment, has a service life comparable to conventional nameplates, and can be manufactured at an extremely low cost. becomes.

Next, referring to FIG. 3, a method for manufacturing a seal-shaped nameplate B will be explained in a second embodiment of the present invention.

(1) Method for manufacturing a nameplate original plate As in the first embodiment, a nameplate original plate 31 is made by copying an arbitrary manuscript, which can be freely selected and produced, onto a transparent synthetic resin film 8 for copying using the electronic copying machine 1. Contrary to normal copying, by placing and copying the character 80 with the copied and displayed character 30 facing upward, the character 80 is reversed, and this reversed character aOa is placed on the film 3. A nameplate main body 81a with inscriptions on the back side facing the front side is manufactured.

(2) Step of applying a backing material to the name plate original plate Example 10 - Material 61 was sprayed with the spray gun 6 onto the reverse side of the name plate original plate 31a manufactured in the above manner, on which the inverted characters 80B were copied. , the first embodiment, and the second embodiment may also be hand-painted), apply a coating layer 62a which is a nameplate backing body, dry it to form a nameplate 8, and then apply an arbitrary adhesive layer using adhesive means such as double-sided adhesive tape. A sticker-like nameplate B is completed by pasting it onto a mount 9 made of paper material.

According to this method, as shown in FIG. 4, the reverse side of the inverted characters 80a of the nameplate original 81a is placed onto the relatively thick nameplate body 4a made of white acrylic material via adhesive means. Needless to say, it is also possible to form the plate-shaped nameplate Ba by pasting it on.

As explained above, in conventional sticker-like nameplates, the same or similar characters are printed on a film made of synthetic resin material, and from the viewpoint of cost, labor, etc., a large number of sheets suitable for printing are printed. The film nameplate is attached to the mount via adhesive means.

-11- However, according to the present invention, even if you try to change the display contents (orientation, inversion, size, etc.) of the display even slightly, it is not possible to respond immediately.However, according to the present invention, as described above, Similarly, an arbitrary manuscript is transferred to a synthetic resin film to produce a nameplate original plate 81, and this is copied in reverse order to the nameplate original plate 81.
Conventionally, as mentioned above, the process was to manufacture the &, apply a backing body to it, and then paste it to the mount via an adhesive means.
Due to cost, labor, etc., it was impossible to produce large quantities of these sticker-shaped nameplates on the spot, but since the necessary markings can be easily made, these sticker-shaped nameplates are easy to produce, and are therefore inexpensive.
Moreover, it can be made to be no different from conventional sticker-like nameplates of this type, and can be manufactured to be highly effective.

In the second embodiment, the case where only one nameplate is attached to the mount 9 has been described, but it is of course possible to affix a large number of nameplates 8 to a single mount as shown in FIG. be.

18- Note that in the above embodiments, the shape of the nameplate was described in the case of manufacturing a code section of an electronic component and other items related thereto, but it is not limited to the above.

That is, these changes may be arbitrarily determined within the scope of achieving the objectives, functions, and effects of the present invention, and none of these changes will change the gist of the present invention in any way.

As will become clear from the above description, according to the present invention, written characters and the like can be thermally transferred from an arbitrary manuscript using a copying means.
Since it is wrapped in a backing material, it can be manufactured quickly when ordered, it can be produced in small quantities of a wide variety, and it can be manufactured at an extremely low price.The above-mentioned problems that have occurred in the past can be solved very simply and effectively. Therefore, it must be said that the practical benefits brought about by the present invention are extremely large.
