UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
WILLIAM G. LINDSA Y, OF NEWARK, NEW J'ERSEY, .ASSIGNOR TO THE CELLULOID COMPANY, LA CORPORATION OF NEW JERSE Y.
DECORTED BODY AND PROCESS FOB, MAKING SAME.
Application filed November 28, 1922. Serial No. 603,887.
To all whom it may concem:
Be it known that I, WILLIAM G. LINDSY,
a citizen of the United States, residing at N ewark, in the county of Essex and State 6 of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Decorated Bodies and Processes for Making Same, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to decorated articles 10 or bodies and more particularly to those formed of laminated plastic material.
Among the objects of my invention is to produce an article of this character which shall be durable in use, inexpensive to manu- 16 facture, of a particularly attractive appearance-and one which shall retain its appearance indefinitely.
In the preferred enbodiment of-my invention I form the article from a suitable base 20 composed of a material which may be either opaque or transparent. This base serves to hold an added material which is designed to give to the finished body a distinctive appearance. An example of such an added material is lustrous metal powder. In case the base is opaque the metal is carried at the surface of the base. Covering this base and the added material is a transparent or translucent lamination which is designed to alte'r to a greater or less extent the natural appearance of the added material or of the added material and the base. Such a change in 'the appe'arance may be efl'ectcd by the employment of a tinted transparent lamina tion which will have the efi'ect of changing the normal color of the background.
An excellent effect is produced by the employment of an opaque ivory base to the surface of which has been applied, in the manner hereafter described, silver metallic scale. On this soale rests a transparent sheet which has an amber tint. The effect produced by the film of silver as seen through the outer sheet is that of gold bronze tinsel. In case I employ a sheet which has a trace of blue coloring instead of the ambel', the efl`ect is that of silver tinsel.
I preferably employ for the base and covering sheet a plastic soluble cellulosic material such as cellulose nitrate or acetate. I may in certain cases however employ such substances as the plastic phenol derivatives of which bakelite is an example.
As illustrative of certain embodinents of ny invention reference is had to the 'ac'companying drawing wherein Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a toilet article embodying the invention.
Fig. 2 is a sectional View of the sametaken on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is a sectional view of a sheet embodyng my invention.
F ig. 4 is a perspective View of a cube embodying my invention and Fig. 5 is a section of the cubeshown in Fig. 4.
In carrying out my invention the base of the objectis worked up in the usual mannefrom suitable material such as cellulose nitrate to which has been added the pigments necessary to produce the desired color. In the case of the toilet article shown in Fig. 1 the base 10 is kneaded and rolled into a thick sheet. An ivory base also produces a very attractive appearance. This base is formed of superposed adhering laminations alternate laminations containing a certain amount of white pigment while the remaining laminations contain a somewhat less amount. In the case of the sheet material shown in Fig. 3 the base 11 may be shaved from a block or fiowed and evaporated according to well-known practice. In the case of the dice shown in Fig. 5 the base 12 may be cut from a block or molded'as desired. In the forms shown in Figs. 1, 2. 4 and 5 the base constitutes the body portion or a part of the body portion of the article.
To the whole or part of the surface of the base there is then lightly applied a suitable solvent such as amyl acetate. When the surface has become slightly moistened there is dusted over it silver metallic scale 14 which adheres to the surface or to that part of the surface to which the softcning material has been applied. lt is not necessary in all cases that the scale be applied so thickly as to form a continuous metallic layer` as excellent efl'ects may be produced when a portion of the background is visible through the scale. The excess solvent which is here being used as a cement is then allowed to evaporate, and there is finally applied to the surface a transparent sheet 15 of cellulosic material of say 50/ 1000 inch thickness. In case it is desired to produce the efi'ect of silver tinsel v parent amber, namely, a reddish this sheet-has a trace of bl'ue coloring. If hdwever the efl'ect of gold bronze is desired the sheet is colored wth a small amount of `amber tint, as previously stated. The amber tint referred to is that of the usual tnse ow.
r One 'side of this sheet is treated with the -The sheets t us assembled are and further worked up according to means known to those skilled in the art.
I apply 'the metal to the surface rather than working the same into the base as a greater amount of lustre is produced with a given amount of metal.
This application is a continuation in part of my co-pending application 'Serial No. 589443, filed September 19, 1922.
I claim: y 3
1. Decorated 'material comprising an opaque base, a layer of divided lustrous scale material adherent to said base, a transparent plastic sheet covering said material and firmly united to said base through spaces between the particles of lustrous material, said particles having visible faces which extend approximately in the same general direction along a smooth surface and said particles being so spaced that said material when viewed through said sheet has the appearance of a continuous lustrous surface.
2. .Decorated material comprising a base, a layer of lustrous metallic scale adherent to said base, the' particles of scale lying in subv tantially the same plane, a transparent sheet covering said scale and firmly united to said base through spaces between the particles of scale, said scale when viewed through said 'sheet giving the appearance of a continuous hammered metal surface.
3. A decorated body comprising a metallic layer, a transparent plastic sheet over said layer, said sheet being tinted so as to altar the appearance of said layer as 'viewed through said sheet so that the same has the appearance of a recious metal.
4. A decorated body comprising a silver layer, a transparent plastic sheet over said layer, said sheet being tinted so as to alter the appearance of said layer as viewed through said sheet so that the same has the appearance of a precious metal.
5. A decorated article *comprising an opaque cellulosic base, a layer of silver scale adherent to' said base and extending to the surface of said article, a cellulose plastic transparent blue tinted sheet cdvering said scale, said sheet being firmly united to said base through said scale.
6. A laminated body comprising a base, silver scale applied to the surface thereof and a transparent sheet covering said scale, said sheet having a slight blue tint.
7. Method of forming a laminated structure having an intervenng metal film which consists in moistening a sheet of cellulosic material with a suitable solvent, applying metal thereto to form a film, moistening a second sheet of cellulosic m aterial with a solvent and pressing said second sheet upon said metal film. i
8. The process of forming a solid decorative materal havin the toughness, strength, du'ability and wor ability of the usual pyroxylin plastics which comprises treating a sheet of plastic material with suitable cementing material, applying metal scale to the mostened surface m such quantity as will adhere thereto and coverin said scale by a transparent sheet of materia and firmly 'uniting said sheets together through spaces between the particles of scale.
9. The rocess of forming a solid decorative materal havin the toughness, strength,
'durability and wor ability of the usual pyl roxylin plastics which comprises treating a sheet of plastic material with suitable cementing material, applying metal scale to the mostened surface n such quantity as will adhere thereto and covering said scale by a transparent sheet of materialand firm- 'ly uniting said sheets together through spaces between the particles of scale by pressure.
