- The present invention relates to a punch, and more particularly to a method for manufacturing a punch capable of simultaneously punching and embossing a sheet member such as a card, a letter paper, a picture, a board, or a paper in a predetermined pattern.
- A punch generally includes a jig having a cutting hole of a predetermined pattern, a base for supporting the jig below it, and a punching member having a sharp cutting blade which slides through the cutting hole of the jig. This punch punches a sheet member according to the pattern of the cutting hole when the punching member passes through the jig by means of the stroke operation for descending the punching member toward the jig while the predetermined sheet member is put into a corresponding punching area of the jig.
- In the punch configured as mentioned above, it is also possible to form an embossing design of a predetermined pattern in the sheet member if a convex embossment (or, a concave embossment) of a predetermined pattern is formed on the surface of the jig and a concave embossment (or, a convex embossment) in correspondence with the convex embossment (or, the concave embossment) is formed at the front end of the punching member.
- However, since the conventional punch is configured just to perform either a punching function or an embossing function, a user should handle two kinds of punches to decorate a sheet member with a punching design and an embossing design together. In addition, when using each punch, the user may measure a punching point and an embossing point just with the eye whenever conducting the punching or embossing work, so the obtained punching and embossing patterns are irregular, and even a complex design is impossible to work.
- The present invention is designed to solve the problems of the prior art, and therefore it is an object of the present invention to provide a method for manufacturing a punch capable of simultaneously punching and embossing a sheet member in a predetermined pattern by just one stroke.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a punch capable of forming various punching and embossing designs, which is impossible in the prior art, by mixing a punching member with pins for embossing in various ways.
- In order to accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a punch, comprising the following steps of: (a) injection-molding a jig with melted materials so that a lower plate and an upper plate are integrally formed at least partially to connect lower and upper cutting holes to be formed on the lower and upper plates respectively and also so that a convex embossment is formed on the lower plate; (b) cutting a connection portion of the lower and upper plates to form a gap through which a sheet member is to be supplied so that the lower and upper cutting holes are separated on the lower and upper plates respectively, and so that an upper surface of the lower plate is formed at the position higher than an upper surface of the convex embossment; and (c) assembling a punching member, which includes a first punch pin passing through the cutting holes to punch the sheet member and form a predetermined pattern therein and a second punch pin having a concave embossment at a front end thereof in correspondence to the convex embossment, to the jig.
- Preferably, a trimming hole on the lower plate for cutting a marginal edge of the sheet member are integrally formed with a guide opening on the upper plate for guiding vertical movement of a punch pin corresponding to the trimming hole in the step (a), and the trimming hole and the guide opening are separated by cutting in the step (b).

-
FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view showing a punch according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, andFIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the punch ofFIG. 1 in an assembled state. - Referring to
FIGS. 1 and 2 , the punch of the present invention includes ajig 100 having apunching area 101, abase 105 for supporting thejig 100, apunching member 115 for punching and embossing a sheet member supplied to thejig 100 with selectively descending against thejig 100, and ahandle 130 used for pressing thepunching member 115. - The
jig 100 supports the supplied sheet member and gives thepunching area 101 for punching and embossing the sheet member in a predetermined pattern. As exemplary shown inFIG. 3 , thepunching area 101 of thejig 100 has at least onecutting hole 101 a of a predetermined pattern and at least one convexembossment 102 of a predetermined pattern at a position spaced apart from thecutting hole 101 a. Here, the punch of the present invention is not limited to the above example, but may be modified so that a concave embossment of a predetermined pattern is formed in thejig 100, of course. - Preferably, the
jig 100 may have anupper plate 100 a and alower plate 100 b, which are faced in parallel with each other so that a gap G is interposed between them for insertion of a sheet member to be punched. In this case, thecutting hole 101 a is formed in theupper plate 100 a and thelower plate 100 b respectively, and theconvex embossment 102 is formed only in thelower plate 100 b. Additionally, aguide hole 101 b for guiding movement of a corresponding punch pin may be formed in theupper plate 100 a in correspondence to theconvex embossment 102. - The
base 105 supports thejig 100 below it and gives a support surface for supplying a sheet member to thepunching area 101. - The
punching member 115 is installed to be vertically movable against thejig 100, and acts for punching and embossing a sheet member supplied to thejig 100 when it descends. For convenient handling of thepunching member 115, anelastic body 110 for elastically biasing thepunching member 115 upward is interposed between thepunching member 115 and thejig 100. Preferably, theelastic body 110 is a spring, which is symmetrical to thepunching area 101 and biases thepunching member 115 upward with being held by a plurality ofprotrusions 103 formed on theupper plate 100 a of thejig 100. - The
punching member 115 has an assembly of punch pins, which are respectively corresponding to thecutting hole 101 a and theconvex embossment 102 of thejig 100 and protruded downward. Thepunching member 115 may be classified into two types respectively shown inFIGS. 4 and 7 according to the structure of the punch pin assembly. - The
punching member 115 schematically shown inFIG. 4 has a punch pin assembly, composed of at least onepunch pin 116 having a cutting blade at its front end, and at least onesecond punch pin 117 having a concave embossment (or, a convex embossment) at its front end and having a body separated from thefirst punch pin 116. Thepunching member 115 conducts punching and embossing to a sheet member at the same time when it descends against thejig 100. Here, thefirst punch pin 116 is preferably longer than thesecond punch pin 117 for easier punching. More specifically, a length difference d between thefirst punch pin 116 and thesecond punch pin 117 is preferably larger than the gap G of thejig 100. -
FIG. 5 shows an example of thepunching member 115 corresponding to thejig 100 ofFIG. 3 . Thepunching member 115 ofFIG. 5 is also substantially corresponding to the type ofFIG. 4 . Referring toFIG. 5 , in thepunching member 115, afirst punch pin 116 corresponding to thecutting hole 101 a of thejig 100 and having acutting blade 116 a at its front end and asecond punch pin 117 having a concave embossment corresponding to theconvex embossment 102 of thejig 100 at itsfront end 117 a are arranged in a predetermined pattern. Thefirst punch pin 116 is longer than thesecond punch pin 117 as much as at least the gap G of thejig 100. Additionally, thepunching member 115 may be further provided with arim cutting pin 118 for cutting a rim portion of the sheet member in a predetermined pattern. - When using the
punching member 115 and thejig 100 configured as mentioned above, at a stroke of thepunching member 115, thefirst punch pin 116 passes through thecutting hole 101 a of thejig 100 to punch the sheet member, and then thesecond punch pin 117 is compressed with theconvex embossment 102 of thejig 100 with the sheet member positioned between them to emboss the sheet member. Thus, as shown inFIG. 6 , apunching pattern 2 and anembossing pattern 3 are formed in thesheet member 1 at the same time. In addition, the rim portion is also cut away in a predetermined pattern. - Meanwhile,
FIG. 7 shows a punchingmember 215 having anintegrated punch pin 216, in which an embossing unit and a punching unit are provided integrally. Referring toFIG. 7 , at least oneintegrated punch pin 216 is arranged to the punchingmember 215 in a predetermined pattern, and other punch pins for either punching or embossing may also be further provided. Theintegrated punch pin 216 includes an embossing unit of which a diameter is relatively large, and a punching unit protruded from one side of the embossing unit and extended to a front end thereof with a diameter relatively smaller than the embossing unit. In addition, a concave embossment (or, a convex embossment) of a predetermined pattern is formed on the front end surface of the embossing unit of theintegrated punch pin 216, and a cutting blade is formed at the front end surface of the punching unit, so theintegrated punch pin 216 punches and embosses the sheet member at the same time when it descends against the corresponding jig. In theintegrated punch pin 216, the length L from the front end surface of the embossing unit to the front end surface of the punching unit is preferably greater than the gap G of the jig for better punching work. -
FIG. 8 shows an example of a punchingmember 215 corresponding to the type ofFIG. 7 in detail, andFIG. 10 shows ajig 300 corresponding to the punchingmember 215 as an example. - Referring to
FIG. 8 first, the punchingmember 215 is provided with at least oneintegrated punch pin 216 of a predetermined pattern, which conducts punching and embossing at the same time. Additionally, the punchingmember 215 may be further provided with other punch pins 217 for punching only without embossing, and arim cutting pin 118 for cutting away a rim of the sheet member. - The
integrated punch pin 216 includes, as shown inFIG. 9 , anembossing unit 219 having a firstfront end surface 219 a on which a concave embossment corresponding to the convex embossment 302 (seeFIG. 10 ) of thejig 300 is formed, and a punching unit 218 having a second front end surface on which a cutting blade corresponding to thecutting hole 301 c of thejig 300 is formed. - The first
front end surface 219 a of theembossing unit 219 is at least corresponding to a partial sectional area of theintegrated punch pin 216, and the concave embossment corresponding to theconvex embossment 302 of thejig 300 is formed thereon. In addition, the secondfront end surface 218 a of the punching unit 218 is corresponding to a remained sectional area of theintegrated punch pin 216, and the cutting blade corresponding to thecutting hole 301 c of thejig 300 is formed thereon. The secondfront end surface 218 a is further protruded rather than the firstfront end 219 a. Preferably, the secondfront end surface 218 a of the punching unit 218 may be perpendicularly protruded from the center portion of the firstfront end surface 219 a of theembossing unit 219 so that a punching pattern is formed at the center of an embossing pattern. - The
jig 300 ofFIG. 10 , which corresponds to thepunching unit 215, includes aconvex embossment 302 of a predetermined pattern formed on thelower plate 300 b of thejig 300, and acutting hole 301 c of a predetermined pattern formed in thelower plate 300 b at a position adjacent to theconvex embossment 302. Preferably, aguide hole 301 b for guiding movement of the punch pin corresponding to theconvex embossment 302 is formed in theupper plate 300 a. - A position of the
convex embossment 302 adjacent to thecutting hole 301 c may be located out of theconvex embossment 302, or at the center of theconvex embossment 302. Here, if thecutting hole 301 c is formed to pass through the center of theconvex embossment 302, it is possible to obtain a design in which a punching pattern is formed at the center of an embossing pattern. - Additionally, it is also possible that cutting
holes 301 a of a predetermined pattern corresponding to other punch pins 217 of the punchingmember 215, not adjacent to theconvex embossment 302, are formed in the upper andlower plates - When using the punching
member 215 and thejig 300 configured as above, at the stroke of the punchingmember 215, the punching unit 218 of theintegrated punch pin 216 passes through the cuttinghole 301 c of thejig 300 to punch the sheet member, and then the concave embossment of theembossing unit 219 of theintegrated punch pin 216 is compressed with theconvex embossment 302 of thejig 300 with the sheet member interposed therebetween to emboss the sheet member. Thus, as shown inFIG. 11 , it is possible to obtain a design in which apunching pattern 2 passing through anembossing pattern 3 is formed together withother punching patterns 2, and a rim portion is additionally cut away in a predetermined pattern. - In addition to that, a
button member 120 may be combined upon the punchingmember button member 120 is covered by acap 125, which is combined with the base 105 with an open top, so an upper portion of thebutton member 120 is partially exposed. A rim portion of thebutton member 120 around the exposed upper portion is supported by thecap 125 so as to prevent thebutton member 120 from being deviated out due to an elastic force applied to the punchingmember cap 125 is combined to thelower base 105 with covering not only thebutton member 120 but also the punchingmember elastic body 110 in a bundle. According to this configuration, a user may conveniently move the punchingmember area 101 of thejig button member 120 exposed outward. - Preferably, the
button member 120 is pressed by using thehandle 130 pivotably connected to one side of the base 105 by means of ahinge 106, which ensures the user to descending thebutton member 120 more easily. - Now, operation of the punch configured as mentioned above according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described.
- First, as shown in
FIG. 12 , a sheet member is put in thepunching area 101 of thejig handle 130 downward by hand, so thehandle 130 is pivoted against the base 105 to press thebutton member 120 downward. Then, the punchingmember area 101 of thejig button member 120, thereby punching and embossing the sheet member in a predetermined pattern. - More specifically, in case the punching
member 115 is provided with thefirst punch pin 116 having thecutting blade 116 a and thesecond punch pin 117 having theconcave embossment 117 a, and the cutting hole 110 a corresponding to thefirst punch pin 116 and theconvex embossment 102 corresponding to theconcave embossment 117 a are formed in the upper andlower plates jig 100, thefirst punch pin 116 passes through the cuttinghole 101 a of theupper plate 100 a of thejig 100, thesheet member 1, and thecutting hole 101 a of thelower plate 100 b subsequently, thereby punching the sheet member, when the punchingmember 115 descends. After that, thesecond punch pin 117 descends through theguide hole 101 b of theupper plate 100 a so as to compress thesheet member 1 between thesecond punch pin 117 and theconvex embossment 102, thereby embossing thesheet member 1. - In addition, in case the punching
member 215 is provided with theintegrated punch pin 216, which includes theembossing unit 219 having the firstfront end surface 219 a on which the concave embossment is formed and the punching unit 218 having the secondfront end surface 218 a on which the cutting blade is formed, and theconvex embossment 302 corresponding to the concave embossment is formed on thejig 300, the secondfront end surface 218 a of the punching unit 218 passes through theguide hole 301 b of the upper plate of thejig 300, thesheet member 1 and thecutting hole 301 c of the lower plate subsequently, thereby punching thesheet member 1, while the punchingmember 215 descends. After that, the firstfront end surface 219 a of theembossing unit 219 compresses thesheet member 1 between the firstfront end surface 219 a and theconvex embossment 302 of thejig 300, thereby embossing thesheet member 1. - FIGS. 13 to 15 show a
jig 400 of a punch according to another embodiment of the present invention.FIG. 17 shows a punchingmember 450 corresponding to thejig 400. - The
jig 400 includes alower plate 410 on which lower cutting holes 411 of a predetermined pattern, aconvex embossment 412 and atrimming hole 413 for cutting a marginal edge of a sheet member to be punched are formed. - In addition, the
jig 400 includes anupper plate 420 facing thelower plate 410 with a gap G between them, where upper cutting holes 421 having the same pattern as the lower cutting holes 411 and aguide opening 422 for guiding vertical movement of punch pins corresponding to theconvex embossment 412 and thetrimming hole 413 are formed. - The punching
member 450 shown inFIG. 17 has a cutting blade formed at its front end, and the punchingmember 450 includes at least onefirst punch pin 451 passing through the upper and lower cuttingholes second punch pin 452 having aconcave embossment 453 corresponding to theconvex embossment 412 at its front end and guided by theguide opening 422, and athird punch pin 454 having a cutting blade at its front end and passing through thetrimming hole 413. Here, the first and third punch pins 451 and 454 are preferably formed to have a longer length than thesecond punch pin 452. - When a
sheet member 1 is supplied between thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 and then thepunch member 450 is pressed, the first and third punch pins 451 and 454 pass through the upper and lower cuttingholes trimming hole 413 to punch the sheet member, which may make a punching design in apredetermined pattern 12 as shown inFIG. 18 . At the same time, as thesecond punch pin 452 descends and presses the sheet member against theconvex embossment 412, anembossing pattern 13 as shown inFIG. 18 may be obtained. - According to this embodiment, as well understood from
FIG. 16 , theconvex embossment 412 formed on thelower plate 410 has a height lower than anupper surface 410 a, that is a surface on which the sheet member is placed, of thelower plate 410 by a predetermined distance D. This configuration may be realized by a specific punch manufacturing method of the present invention. - A
reference numeral 403 denotes protrusions, which are substantially identical to theprotrusions 103 ofFIG. 3 and not described in detail here. - In the method for manufacturing the punch according to this embodiment, a manufacture process of the
jig 400 is shown inFIG. 19 . Referring toFIG. 19 , a mold corresponding to the shape of thejig 400 is prepared (S100).FIG. 20 is a sectional view showing a preferable example of themold 500 corresponding to a section of the jig ofFIG. 16 . - Inner spaces S1, S2 and S3 of the
mold 500 are filled with materials, for example melted zinc that will be made into a jig. According to the present invention, thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 of thejig 400 are not individually molded in separate molds but integrally molded in the spaces S1 and S3. - In particular, the upper and lower cutting
holes lower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 are integrally formed using asingle molding element 501. In addition, thetrimming hole 413 of thelower plate 410 is integrally formed with theguide opening 422 by means of amolding element 502. - Here, the
convex embossment 412 to be formed on thelower plate 410 is formed by themold 500. - When the
mold 500 configured as mentioned above is prepared, a melted metal such as zinc is then put into the mold to injection-mold a jig (S200). -
FIG. 21 schematically shows apreform 600 of the injection-molded jig. As shown inFIG. 21 , thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 are formed to be integrally connected with each other, and the lower and upper cutting holes 411 and 412 are interconnected and integrally formed. In addition, thetrimming hole 413 is integrally formed with theguide opening 422. - Subsequently, a side portion of the
preform 600 of the jig is cut away as much as the gap G to divide thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420, and at the same time a space for supplying a sheet member to be punched is formed therebetween (S300). InFIG. 21 , a portion that will be removed by cutting is shown as a dotted line DL. Accordingly, the lower and upper cutting holes 411 and 421 are also separated on thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 respectively, and thetrimming hole 413 is also separated from theguide opening 422. - According to the method wherein the
lower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 are integrally formed and then the gap G is formed between thelower plate 410 and theupper plate 420 by cutting as mentioned above, the lower and upper cutting holes 411 and 421 and thetrimming hole 413 may be aligned very precisely. Otherwise, in the conventional technology in which the lower and upper cutting holes 411 and 421 and thetrimming hole 413 are shaped in an injection molding process using a mold, a molded jig may be deformed due to distribution of melted materials or difference of cooling rates, and accordingly the alignment of the cutting holes 411 and 421 and thetrimming hole 413 may be deviated. - In this embodiment, in the cutting process, a portion of the
perform 600 higher than the upper surface of theconvex embossment 412 is cut away so that theconvex embossment 412 which has been formed in advance in the previous molding process may not damaged by a cutting blade. Accordingly, theupper surface 410 a of thelower plate 410 is higher than the upper surface of theconvex embossment 412. This process may prevent theconvex embossment 412 having a relatively elaborate pattern from being damaged in the cutting process. - When the cutting process is completed, a jig as shown in
FIG. 16 is produced, and then a punchingmember 450 separately fabricated and various parts mentioned above are assembled (S400). - According to the punch manufacturing method of this embodiment, the lower and upper plates are integrally formed so that the lower and upper cutting holes of a pattern in the lower and upper plates are connected with each other, and then the lower and upper plates are separated by cutting so that the lower and upper cutting holes of a pattern may be aligned without any error. In addition, the jig is cut so as not to interfere the convex embossment to thereby prevent the convex embossment from being damaged or deformed by a cutter.
- The present invention has been described in detail. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.
- The punch according to the present invention may simultaneously punch and emboss a sheet member by only one stroke, thereby conveniently giving various designs in which a punching pattern and an embossing pattern is mixed.
- In addition, since the pins for punching or embossing may be associated in various ways in the punch, it is possible to obtain various punching and embossing designs, which cannot be expected in the prior art.
- This punch may be used for punching a sheet member such as a card, a letter paper, a picture, a board, or a paper, which requires decoration, as well as for punching work in offices or industries, thereby improving the beauty thereof.
