Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce cost by forming a transfer sheet on which metallic foil layers shaped and disposed to characters, marks, etc. to meet a material to be transferred and transferring the sheet onto the material to be transferred. CONSTITUTION:The transfer sheet 1 is formed with the metallic foil layers 5, 5', 5'', which are constituted by laminating a bright metallic layer 4 consisting of pure gold, etc. atop an underlying layer 3 formed to the shape of marks, characters, etc., at the required points on the bottom surface of a film base material 2 and is adhered with release paper 6 coated with a release material atop the self-adhesive material layer. Such sheet is used and is placed on the dial of a timepiece after the paper 6 is stripped from the sheet. The sheet is so positioned that the layers 5, 5', 5'' are brought respectively to the adequate positions and thereafter the top surface of the material 2 is rubbed. The layers 5, 5', 5'' are thereby stuck onto the dial of the timepiece. The layers 5, 5', 5'' having the shapes of the marks, characters, etc. are adhered on the dial of the timepiece when the material 2 is stripped. The cost is thus reduced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Field of Industrial Application" The present invention relates to a method for forming three-dimensional characters, marks, etc. on a clock dial or the like.

"Conventional technology" Traditionally, for example, three-dimensional characters were used on the dial of a wristwatch.

When attaching marks, time scales, etc., generally the seventh
As shown in Fig. 8 and Fig. 8, through-holes Bt--for inserting pins protruding from the back side of the marks and time scales, etc. described below, are formed at required locations on the dial plate A, and metal foil etc. formed separately. The mark C and the pin protruding from the back of the time scale are inserted into the through hole B.
, and swage and apply adhesive E on the back side of dial A.
This is done by fixing with i. In addition, F in Figure 1
is a display window frame for displaying the date, day of the week, etc.

However, when using this method, it is necessary to double the effort of drilling a hole in the dial, inserting a pin on the back of the mark, etc. into the hole, and fixing it with caulking and adhesive. Moreover, each mark, time scale, etc. must be made one by one by hand, which is extremely inefficient.In addition to this method, a method using thick plating is also used in some cases. However, since the thick plating method inevitably has a problem of high cost,
Currently, only luxury items are used.

"Problems to be Solved by the Invention" The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned points, and is a hole-type device that does not require drilling holes in the dial as in the past and inserting pins on the back of marks etc. into the holes in the dial. To provide a method capable of forming three-dimensional characters, marks, etc. that do not require caulking or fixing with adhesive, and have a high-class appearance similar to thick plating.

The gist of the present invention is to form a glittering metal layer of pure gold, black chrome, nickel, etc. on the upper surface of the underlying metal, forming a desired mark, figure, character, etc. on the lower surface of the film base material. A metal foil layer is formed on the lower surface of the film base material using a transfer sheet formed by laminating a metal foil layer, applying an adhesive to the lower surface of the metal foil layer, and adhering a release paper to the adhesive surface. Uses for transfer materials such as foil layer gold watch dials.

The metal foil Tfi is placed in the required shape and position according to the size, shape, etc., peeled off the release paper, applied the transfer sheet to the desired position on the transfer material, and rubbed from the top surface of the film base. 'c A method for forming three-dimensional characters, marks, etc. on a watch dial, etc., which is characterized by pasting onto a transfer material.

"Means to solve problems" Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a surface view of the transfer sheet used in the present invention in a partially peeled state, Fig. 2 is a sectional view taken along line 1-I in Fig. 1, Fig. 3 is an enlarged view of part A in Fig. 2, and Fig. Figure 4 is a surface view of a clock dial, Figure 5 is a surface view of a nine clock dial with metal foil layers forming three-dimensional marks, and Figure 6 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line n-n in the fifth garden. .

In the figure, 1 is a transfer sheet, marks are placed on the lower surface of the film base 2, and the date and time are 1.

A glittering metal layer 4t of pure gold, black chrome, nickel, etc. is formed on the upper surface of the base metal layer 3, which forms the shape of a day-of-the-week display window frame, etc.
- Laminated metal foil layers 5, 5', 5'''t- are formed, and a suitable adhesive is applied to the lower surfaces of the metal foil layers 5, 5', 5', and the adhesive surface and upper surface are coated. It is made by adhering a release paper 6 coated with a release agent.

Further, the metal foil layer 5 indicates a mark, the metal foil layer 5' indicates a time scale, and the metal foil layer 5'' indicates a window frame for displaying the date and day of the week. It is placed at an appropriate position according to the size and shape of 7.

Therefore, the present invention uses the above-mentioned transfer sheet 1.

First, the release paper 6 of the transfer sheet 1 is peeled off, and then the metal foil layers 5, 5', and 5'' are positioned on the dial 7 of the watch at appropriate positions, and then the film base material is removed. 2" is rubbed on the upper surface of the watch. As a result, the metal foil layers 5.5', 5" are pasted onto the watch dial 7 using the υ adhesive, and when the film base material 2 is peeled off, the watch dial is removed. Mark above 7,
The metal foil layers 5, 5', and 5'' of each shape of the time scale 1 date/day display window frame are stuck and remain. The deposited metal foil layers 5, 5', and 5'' each have a beautiful metallic luster and are moderately raised, so they exhibit the same beauty as if they were thickly plated. An image of luxury goods? It is something that is created.

"Effects of the Invention" As described above, the present invention provides the following advantages when attaching three-dimensional characters, marks, 5# tick marks, etc. to a transfer material, for example, a clock dial.
Letters and marks to match the dial.

Nine transfer sheets that form a metal foil layer with the shape and arrangement of time scales, etc.? Since this is created and transferred onto the dial, each separate mark, time scale, etc. is affixed at the correct position at the same time. Therefore, if you insert the pin on the back of the dial, mark, etc. drilled into the dial and fix it with caulking and adhesive, you can save nine hours and be extremely efficient. It is true.

In addition, the metal foil layer has a beautiful luster and is moderately raised, so it has the same aesthetic appearance as thickly plated 9, and is a high-quality product similar to thickly plated at a low cost. It is possible to create an image of

In this example, two clock dials were used as examples, but it is also possible to form three-dimensional patterns, letters, etc. on ornaments such as pendants, eyeglass frames, etc. using the same method. The present invention also includes these.
