Referring to FIG. 1, the system for providing a nail decoration print pattern includes a connection registration server 11 that can be connected to the apparatus via wired or wireless communication by an electronic device; A pattern formation module (12) for selecting or creating a nail pattern by a user connected via the connection registration server (11); And a personal pattern database 13 in which the nail pattern generated by the pattern forming module 12 and stored in the personal pattern database 13 is stored. The nail pattern stored in the personal pattern database 13 includes a file format .

The nail decoration print pattern providing system may be composed of a user module 15 and a supplier module 10, and the user module 15 and the supplier module 10 may be connected in a wireless or wired communication manner.

The user electronic device 16 may be any device capable of wired or wireless communication, such as a portable electronic device such as a smart phone, a tablet PC, a notebook computer, or a personal computer. The individual can access the connection registration server 11 via the electronic device and can access the connection registration server 11 via the Internet, for example. The connection registration server 11 can be various types of servers which can be connected to the connection registration server 11 via the Internet or other communication means. The connection registration server 11 can set an appropriate access right according to whether or not it is a member registered in advance with respect to the connection person. An individual connected to the connection registration server 11 can create or select a nail ornament suitable for him / her through the pattern forming module 12. [

The information on the individual connected to the connection registration server 11 can be stored in the personal pattern database 13. [ The personal pattern database 13 can store information for an individual's claw or fingernail and for identification of an individual, and can also store the nail decorations selected by the individual at a particular point in time. For example, a person may create in the pattern formation module 12, or the selected nail decoration may be stored in the personal pattern database 13 together with the individual identification information.

The pattern forming module 12 has a function of providing a space for allowing a person connected to the supplier module 10 to create nail decorations. The pattern forming module 12 may store various patterns for nail decorations and may store nail decorations suitable for nails or toenails of various shapes. The pattern forming module 12 may search or search various information related to the nail pattern through the nail information source 14, which is an online or offline information source capable of providing information on the Internet site or similar information. The individual may select a nail art pattern stored in the pattern formation module 12, modify the stored basic pattern, or create a new pattern. It is also possible to test the resulting nail art patterns by applying them to their nails or toenails. Various forms of nail decoration patterns can be created or selected by an individual. The nail decoration pattern may be stored in the personal pattern database 13.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the nail pattern stored in the personal pattern database 13 becomes a file format that can be transmitted to the user and is printable.

The nail art pattern is difficult to be printed by a general-purpose printing apparatus or a personal printing apparatus, and is printed and supplied in large quantities by a professional printing apparatus. Thus, even if a nail ornament pattern suitable for a person is created, it is difficult to apply it to an individual. In order to solve such a problem, the print pattern providing system provides the personal nail decoration pattern stored in the personal pattern database 13 in the form of a printable file in a printing device or a general-purpose printing device owned by an individual. For example, the nail pattern stored in the personal pattern database 13 may be transmitted to the user electronic device 16 via wired or wireless communication. Then, the user electronic device 16 can print a necessary number of nail decoration patterns to the individual using the printing device 17 such as a personal printing device or a general-purpose printing device. In order to print the nail pattern on the printing machine 17, a printing paper suitable for the printing is required. This will be described below again.

Thus, the present invention allows nail decorations to be customized by allowing an individual to access a server and create or select nail decorating patterns directly and print them on a printing device 17 of an individual, Thereby enhancing the ease of application of the ornament.

2 shows an embodiment of an operating structure of a system for providing a nail print print pattern according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the connection admission unit 111 may be arranged in the connection registration server so that the connection permission or access right of the individual connecting to the connection registration server can be set. The access granting unit 111 can set access authority by confirming whether it corresponds to a registered visitor or a new visitor. The personal information can be acquired for the connection person to which the access right is set by the information acquisition unit 21. [ The personal information includes information capable of communicating with the connected individual and information on the shape of the nail or claw of the individual. Information on the shape of the nail or the toenails of the individual can be transmitted to the information obtaining unit 21 in the form of, for example, a shape photograph of a nail or a toenail, or a 3D scan photograph. Or information on a nail ornament pattern already used may be transmitted to the information obtaining unit 21. [ In addition, information about the nail decoration pattern preferred by the individual can be acquired by the information acquisition unit 21 in a dialogue manner. Through various methods, the information obtaining unit 21 can obtain information related to the nail decoration of the individual, and the obtained information can be transmitted to the feature extracting unit 22. [

The feature extraction unit 22 has a function of extracting features of a shape of an individual's nail or claw through a photograph, a 3D scan photograph, or similar information. The feature extraction unit 22 can store information on nail or claws of various shapes and can extract the feature of the shape based on the information transmitted from the connected individual based on the stored information. And the extracted features may be transmitted to the feature classification unit 232. [

The pattern classification unit 231 may classify an individual's pattern based on sex, age, disposition, or preferred shape sent from an individual. The pattern classification unit 231 may store a plurality of basic patterns and allow at least one pattern to be selected that provides a basic pattern to the visitor. As described above, the pattern classification unit 231 can classify patterns based on preferences of individuals and classify at least one personal preference pattern. Further, information on a fashionable pattern or a pattern similar to a pattern currently used can be searched through the information search unit 24 and provided to a visitor. In this manner, a pattern suitable for the connection can be presented and selected, and at least one pattern can be determined or selected. And the pattern classified by the matching unit 25 together with the features classified in the feature classification unit 232 can be transmitted.

The matching unit 25 may have a function of making a matching shape suitable for the user while combining at least one classification pattern and the classification feature. In the matching process, the user can make various changes and add new features. Through this process, at least one matching pattern can be determined, and the determined matching pattern can be transmitted to the pattern selection unit 26. [ The pattern selection unit 26 may have a function of determining a visitor's preference rank for the matched pattern and may determine the priority if a plurality of matching patterns are determined. As described above, when at least one nail ornament pattern is finally selected by the pattern selection unit 26, it can be stored in the personal pattern database 13.

The nail pattern of the individual stored in the personal pattern database 13 can be transmitted to the visitor at any time according to the request of the visitor. The nail pattern can be transmitted to the print file creation unit 27 and can be made into a file format that can be printed by the print file creation unit 27 on the personal printing apparatus. The nail decoration pattern made of such a printable file can be transferred to the personal electronic device via the connection approval unit 111 and printed on the printing paper as necessary.

The printing papers need to have a structure suitable for nail decoration in order to be printed on a printing paper and become a form that can be used by an individual.

Fig. 3 shows an embodiment of a printing substrate for nail application applied to the system according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 3, the printable file form may be in a form that can be printed on a printing substrate having a plurality of detachable unit decorating units 33.

3, the printing base material for nail printing comprises a base layer 31; And a separating layer 34 composed of a plurality of unit decorating units 33 that can be printed while being coupled to the base layer 31. The plurality of unit decorating units 33 can be separated from the base layer 31 The decoration may be printed in a state in which the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 are combined by a printing apparatus connected to the electronic device in which the decoration is stored.

The printing substrate can be applied to decorations or nail art such as nails or claws. The printing substrate can be made printable by a general purpose printing apparatus, and can have, for example, A3 to A6 paper sizes. The printing substrate may also have a printable thickness in a general purpose printing machine, for example, a decorative or design that is to be printed on a personal computer is stored, and is printed by a printing apparatus such as an inkjet print or laser print connected to a personal computer Lt; / RTI >

The printing substrate may have a printable paper size and thickness in various printing apparatuses or printing apparatuses, and is not limited by the type of printing apparatus or printing apparatus.

The base layer 31 may be made of a synthetic resin material or a paper material and may be made of, for example, polyvinyl chloride, polypyrrole, polycarbonate, acrylic, epoxy, polyimide, polyurethane or a mixed resin thereof, It does not. The front surface of the base layer 31 forms a smooth surface with a low coefficient of friction and the rear surface of the base layer 31 can form a rough surface with a large coefficient of friction.

The separation layer 34 may be bonded to the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 may be made of, for example, a polyurethane material, a silicon material, a PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) material, or a mixture thereof. One side of the separating layer 34 may be an adhesive layer, and the other side of the separating layer 34 may be a printing layer. The adhesive layer becomes a surface in contact with the base layer 31, and the printed layer becomes a surface on which the nail decoration is printed by the printing apparatus or the printing apparatus while being exposed to the outside. As such, at least one side of the separating layer 34 can be made into a printable layer by a general purpose printer. The base layer 31 is made of hard synthetic resin, while the separation layer 34 is made of soft synthetic resin. The separating layer 34 may be made relatively thin compared with the base layer 31 and may have a characteristic capable of being bent in an arbitrary direction.

The separating layer 34 may be composed of a plurality of unit decorating units 33 and the unit decorating unit 33 may be arranged in the separating layer 34 in the form of a two-dimensional matrix. The unit decorating unit 33 may be formed in various shapes depending on the shape of the nail or the shape of the nail, although the unit decorating unit 33 may be a square shape having a part as a whole, but is not limited thereto. Each unit decorating unit 33 can be detached from the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 and attached to the nail or toenails. And the nail or nail pattern is printed on the unit decorating unit 33. Thus, the unit decorating unit 33 becomes a part separated from the separating layer 34, and the lower surface can be an adhesive surface and the upper surface can be a printing surface.

Printing on the separating layer 34 or the unit decorating unit 33 forming the printing substrate can be performed in the same or similar manner as the printing of A4 paper, for example. Specifically, the printing substrate may be printed in the same or similar manner as the printing apparatus or the printing apparatus connected to the personal computer or other electronic apparatus. For this purpose, the printing substrate may have appropriate bending property or tensile property, and it is also necessary to have properties capable of being printed by the printing ink.

Fig. 4 shows an embodiment of the structure of the unit decorating unit of the printing substrate of the printing substrate of Fig. 3 and the layer structure of the printing substrate.

4, the unit decorating unit 33 may be arranged in a two-dimensional matrix shape in the base layer 31, and each unit decorating unit 33 may be bonded to the base layer 31 in a detachable manner . Each of the unit decorating units 33 may have a rectangular shape having a short curved shape facing each other, and may be made to have a size that can be attached to a nail or toenails. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 4 (a), each unit decorating unit 33 may have a different shape, although an embodiment in which each unit decorating unit 33 has the same or similar shape is shown. For example, the unit decorating unit 33 attached to the nail of the thumb and the unit decorating unit 33 attached to the nail of the little finger may be formed in different shapes. Further, the unit decorating unit 33 attached to the nail and the unit decorating unit 33 attached to the nail can be formed in different shapes.

The decoration, pattern or pattern printed on each unit decorating unit 33 can be made in various shapes, and the unit decorating units 33 attached to the same fingernail can have the same or different decorations.

Referring to FIG. 4 (B), the printing substrate includes a base layer 31 made of synthetic resin; And a separating layer 34 detachably coupled to the upper portion of the base layer 31. And a separation line 43 for perpendicularly cutting a part of the base layer 31 perpendicular to the plane of the separation layer 34 and the base layer 31 may be formed. The dividing line 43 forms the rim of the unit decorating unit 33 and the unit decorating unit 33 can be separated from the base layer 31 along the dividing line 43. [ The dividing line 43 can be formed after the unit decorating unit 33 is formed or printed before being printed, but it is advantageously formed after printed preferably. The dividing line 33 may be formed at a depth of 1/10 to 4/5 of the total thickness of the base layer 31 or a part of the base layer 31, but is not limited thereto.

A protective film 41 may be attached to the upper side of the separation layer 34 and the protective film 41 may be made of various materials that can be separated from the separation layer 34 for protection before the printing substrate is printed . For example, the separation layer 34 may be made of a synthetic resin material having a weak adhesion with the separation layer 34 and having no transparency to light and moisture.

A variety of protective films 41 may be formed above the separation layer 34, and the separation layer 34 may be selectively disposed.

As described above, since the printing substrate must be printed in the same or similar way in the same or similar apparatus as paper printing, the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 are prevented from being curled, separated, torn or deformed in the printing process It needs to be made of a material that can be made. It is also necessary to be made of a material having appropriate friction characteristics. Further, the separation layer 34 may be made of a material which does not cause deformation or bleeding during decoration or pattern printing. For example, the separation layer 34 may be made of a synthetic resin material including silica having an average diameter of 10 to 200 nm and having a decomposition temperature of 270 DEG C or higher, for example, a weight of which is reduced by 5 wt% Can be made of polyurethane material. Further, the separation layer 34 has a hardness of 50 to 90 (HV), a tensile strength of 150 to 300 (kgf / cm 2), an elongation of 300 to 400% at a temperature of 150 캜 , And a durability of 50 to 120 (㎣ loss), or preferably a polyurethane material. Also, in order to prevent separation of the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 during the printing process, the adhesive for the bonding surface of the separation layer 34 includes silica particles having an average diameter of 10 to 200 nm, May be a synthetic resin adhesive or polyurethane adhesive having a volume expansion rate of 300 to 520 kPa and less than 250% at a temperature of 150 DEG C or less.

The base layer 31 may be made of a synthetic resin material that is the same as or similar to the separation layer 34 but needs to be thicker and harder than the separation layer 34. [ For example, the base layer 31 may be 2 to 20 times the thickness of the isolation layer 34, or the hardness may be 2 to 20 times, but not limited thereto.

The decoration or the printing of the pattern for the unit decorating unit 33 can be various inks known in the art, but it is advantageous that the ink can be cured quickly with high thermal stability and no bleeding. For example, the ink for printing the unit decorating unit 33 may be made of pigments, resins, solvents, or additives. The pigment may be, for example, a variety of organic pigments, such as diazo pigments, and the resin may comprise acrylic, epoxy, cellulose derivatives, polyvinylbutyl, polyamide or hydrocarbons, (isocyanate free polyurethanes). The solvent may include ethyl acetate, isopropanol or n-propyl acetate, and the additive may include cyclohexanone, butoxyethanol or butyrolactone.

The separation layer 34 may comprise a silica component as described above and the ink for printing the separation layer 34 may contain from 0.01 to 1 wt% And the silica of the ink composition may have an average diameter that is the same as or similar to the silica of the separation layer 34. [

The printing substrate may be composed of a base layer 31 and a separating layer 34 made of various materials, and various kinds of decorations or patterns for nail art may be printed. And after each unit decoration unit 33 is separated from the base layer 31.

Fig. 5 shows another embodiment of the unit for decorating the printing substrate of Fig.

Referring to Fig. 5, the unit decorating unit 33 includes a printing portion 321; A fixing portion 322; And a separating portion 333, and a nail ornament pattern or pattern may be printed on the printing portion 321. [ The unit decorating unit 33 can be separated from the base layer 31 with reference to the separating portion 333 and the separating mark 51 can be formed in the separating portion 333. [ The separation marker 51 can be a standard for separation of the unit decorating unit 33 at the same time as a standard for printing. The separation mark 51 may be formed in advance in the separation layer or in the process of printing a nail ornamental pattern or pattern. The separation structure 52 may be formed at a position corresponding to the position of the separation marker 51. [ The separating structure 52 may be formed to extend over the dividing line 43 of the base layer 31 and may be formed into a polygonal shape or a circular shape by applying pressure to the base layer 31, for example. Or the separating structure 52 may be made in a protruding structure. In this manner, separation of the unit unit 33 is facilitated by the separation mark 51 or the separation structure 52, and at the same time, printing is performed at a predetermined position in the printing process. And the base layer 31 and the separation layer 34 can be easily joined.

In the printing process of the printing substrate, the printing sheet can be moved by the frictional force inside the printing apparatus, and a plurality of the printing substrates can overlap each other. Therefore, the lower surface of the printing substrate needs to have an appropriate coefficient of friction. Specifically, the lower surface of the base layer 31 may have a larger coefficient of friction than the upper surface of the base layer 31. [ Alternatively, the friction enhancing structure 531 may be formed on the lower surface of the base layer 31. The friction enhancing structure 531 may be formed as a linear protrusion or a groove-shaped or dispersed point structure on the back surface of the base layer 31. The friction enhancing structure 531 allows the printing substrate made of a synthetic resin material to be printed by a general printing device.
