法に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is characterized in that the outer surface of the body of the wristwatch, especially the outer surface of the body, is made of gold.
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a shell case made of plastic.

殻の形状が部分的に変形するため、後工程で研摩研削等
の表面仕上げを行なわなければならず、下記の欠点があ
る。Conventional shelled cases have been manufactured by drawing or brazing a metal shell, but with this method, the dimensions of the shell and injection cavity can be precisely matched during insert injection molding. However, since the shape of the shell is partially deformed by the molding pressure during insert molding, surface finishing such as abrasive grinding must be performed in a subsequent process, which has the following disadvantages.
(1) 後工程の研摩研削による発熱で殻と゛プラスチ
ックの間に微細なスキマが発生し、殻とプラスチック製
内胴の密着性が悪くなる。(1) The heat generated by the abrasive grinding process in the post-process creates a minute gap between the shell and the plastic, which deteriorates the adhesion between the shell and the plastic inner shell.
(2)金メッキ等、メッキ仕上げが必要とする胴の場合
(1)で発生するスキマにメッキ液が入り込み、後に完
全な除去が不可能であるため耐食性が非常に悪くなる。(2) In the case of a shell that requires a plating finish such as gold plating, the plating solution enters the gap created in (1) and cannot be completely removed afterwards, resulting in very poor corrosion resistance.

形を行い時計側を完成させる。In order to manufacture the above-mentioned watch side, first, as shown in Fig. 2, a plastic electroforming master mold 4, which is faithfully transferred from an electroforming master whose surface has been finished with the desired design, is molded using a known plastic molding method, for example. Processed by injection molding, compression molding, etc. Next, a conductive coating 5 is formed on the surface of the plastic electroforming mold 4 by vacuum evaporation or electroless plating to give conductivity, and then a plateable metal such as nickel, copper, gold, or silver is applied. The electroformed shell 1 is formed by electrodeposition by electroforming. Next, when manufacturing the injection cavity 12 of the insert mold, the mask 6 is
The second electroformed master 7 was electroformed without setting, and a thick plating 7α was applied to the surface of the secondary electroformed master.
After applying the lIi formulation 7b, it is placed on a glass plate 8. Next, after sealing the gap between the glass ring 9 and the glass plate 8 with adhesive i10, heat-resistant resin or metal powder-containing heat-resistant resin 1
1 is poured and hardened, and the post-processed material is incorporated into an insert molding mold to form an injection cavity 12 to complete the mold. The thick plating on the secondary master 7 is to provide a clearance between the electroformed shell 1 and the injection cavity 12, and the amount of clearance varies depending on the shape of the watch side, but is preferably about 5μ to 1000μ. Furthermore, the heat-resistant resin that is the material of the injection cavity 12 has greater strength when it contains metal powder, and is stronger when it contains about 80% by weight of metal powder. The metal powder preferably contains metal powders such as aluminum, iron, copper, nickel powder, stainless steel, etc., and inorganic powders such as aluminium, mina, etc. Next, the electroformed shell 1 is subjected to post-processing such as the glass insertion part and the buttonhole part by cutting, press punching, etc., and then coated with a finishing plating layer made of precious metals such as nickel, gold, rhodium, and chromium, and then molded into an insert molding mold. The watch side is completed by injection molding.

金色等のメッキ仕上げの殻化ケースが製造可能となる。In the method of the present invention, the injection cavity of the insert molding mold is made of heat-resistant resin or heat-resistant resin containing metal powder based on the electroformed shell as described above, so that there is no space between the electroformed shell and the injection cavity. Since there is no gap, there is no deformation of the shell due to the pressure during injection molding, and there is no need for finishing processing after injection molding, so finish plating can be done before insert injection molding.
It becomes possible to manufacture shelled cases with a gold-plated finish.

どその効果は大きい。In addition, since the external shape can be expressed freely, designs can be diversified, and watch sides with complex and high-quality patterns that are extremely difficult to mass-produce using normal machining methods can be mass-produced. Furthermore, since the surface pattern is accurately reproduced from a high-quality finished master, there is no need for finishing such as abrasive cloth in the final process, which has great effects such as improved processing efficiency.
