Abstract

Disclosed is a formation method of a tool identification structure, wherein the surface of a tool is subjected to a first surface treatment means to form a first protection layer, and then a coloring means is used to form an identification structure having a color layer on the first protection layer. Finally, a second surface treatment means is used to form a second protection layer on a non-identified structure area of the tool surface, such that the non-identified and identified structure areas of the tool surface form contrast of chromatic aberration. Accordingly, the identification structure having said color layer not only provides better recognition effect, but also ensures its anti-corrosion effect after the color layer wears away and drops out from the bottom surface through the first protection layer contained thereon; the chromatic aberration or embossment effect between the first and the second protection layers are employed for effectively displaying the identification patterns of the identification structure, achieving a practical efficiency favorable for long-term identification.

Description

Tool marking structure forming method

In particular, the present invention provides a method for forming a tool marking structure having a better identification effect and ensuring rust prevention and identification even if the color layer of the marking structure is worn off.

According to the press, many tools (such as sleeve tools and wrench tools) will display the marking pattern of the size number or trademark on the surface, and finally form the plating layer by electroplating. The surface is the same color, which not only appears to be monotonous, but also has poor recognition effect. Therefore, the manufacturer has formed a marking structure with a color layer on the surface of the tool by printing, and the obvious contrast and diversification of the color layer The tool greatly enhances the recognition effect, and the appearance is visually lively and vivid.

Taking the sleeve tool with the color layer marking structure as an example, the molding method can be roughly divided into the following types:

1. Referring to FIG. 1 , the tool 10 is first subjected to a plating process, and a plating layer 11 is formed on the surface, and then a marking pattern 12 having a color layer is printed in a suitable position on the surface of the tool; Forming Method When the marking pattern 12 having the color layer is worn off due to long-term use, the color of the bottom plating layer 11 will appear, and the marking pattern 12 can no longer be displayed, thereby completely losing the recognition effect.

2. Referring to FIG. 2, the tool 20 is first subjected to an imprint process, and a concave mark pattern 21 is formed on the surface, and the concave mark pattern is formed on the surface. 21 is printed on the color layer, and finally plated, and a plating layer 22 is formed on the surface other than the marking pattern 21; the marking pattern 21 of the molding method wears off the color layer even after long-term use. At the same time, the concave mark pattern 21 can still be formed, but since the plating layer cannot be formed on the bottom surface or the surface of the color layer when the plating process is performed, when the color layer is worn off, the bottom surface does not have a plating layer. Therefore, the marking pattern 21 causes a rust condition and a serious flaw occurs.

3. Referring to FIG. 3, the tool 30 is first subjected to a plating process, and a plating layer 31 is formed on the surface, and then an imprint process is performed at an appropriate position on the surface of the tool to form a concave mark pattern 32 on the surface. Further, a color layer is printed on the concave mark pattern 32 in a printed manner; the mark pattern 32 of the molding method can exhibit a concave mark even when the color layer is worn off due to long-term use. The pattern 32 and the bottom surface also have a plating layer 31. However, the color of the plating layer on the bottom surface of the marking pattern 32 is the same as that of the plating layer on the circumferential side, resulting in a poor recognition effect.

In view of this, the inventor has been engaged in research and development and production experience of related industries for many years, and has conducted in-depth research on the problems currently faced. After long-term efforts and trials, the inventors have finally developed a not only better identification effect, but also Even if the color layer of the marked block wears off, the tool marking structure of the rust prevention and identification effect can be ensured to effectively improve the shortcomings of the formula, which is the design tenet of the invention.

A first object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a tool marking structure, which is formed on a surface of a tool by a first surface treatment means to form a first protective layer, and then a coloring means is formed on the first protective layer to form a color layer. Marking structure, and finally forming a second protective layer on the non-labeled structure area of the tool surface by the second surface treatment means, so that the non-labeled structure area of the tool surface and the marking structure form different contrast colors Poor, and thus provide better identification.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a tool marking structure, which is formed on a surface of a tool by a first surface treatment means to form a first protective layer, and then a coloring means is formed on the first protective layer to form a color layer. The marking structure is finally formed by the second surface treatment means to form a second protective layer on the non-labeled structure area of the tool surface, so that the non-labeled structure area of the tool surface and the marking structure form different contrast chromatic aberrations, which are marked for long-term use. When the color layer of the structure is worn off, since the bottom surface of the color layer has the first protective layer, the rust prevention effect can be ensured.

A third aspect of the present invention provides a method for forming a tool marking structure, which is formed on a surface of a tool by a first surface treatment means to form a first protective layer, and then a coloring means is formed on the first protective layer to form a color layer. The marking structure finally forms a second protective layer different from the color of the first protective layer on the non-labeled structural region of the tool surface by the second surface treatment means, so that the non-labeled structural region of the tool surface forms a contrast with the labeled structure. Chromatic aberration, when the color layer of the marking structure is worn off during long-term use, since the bottom surface of the color layer has a first protective layer, and the color of the second protective layer of the non-labeled structure area is different from the color of the first protective layer, Different contrast chromatic aberrations are formed to effectively ensure long-term identification.

A fourth object of the present invention is to provide a method for forming a tool marking structure, which is formed on a surface of a tool by a first surface treatment means to form a first protective layer, and then a coloring means is formed on the first protective layer to form a color layer. The marking structure finally forms a second protective layer identical to the color of the first protective layer on the non-labeled structural region of the tool surface by the second surface treatment means, so that the non-labeled structural region of the tool surface forms a contrast with the marking structure. Chromatic aberration, when the color layer of the marking structure is worn off during long-term use, since the bottom surface of the color layer has a first protective layer, and the thickness of the second protective layer of the non-labeled structure region is higher than that of the first protective layer, it can still be formed. The embossing contrast effect with the difference in thickness ensures the long-term identification effect.
