Definitions
- This invention relates to a badge and a method of making the same.
- the badge of the present invention includes a body portion and a fastening means secured together with a fused joint.
- the body portion of the Ibadge is preferably a heat fusable plastic material, such as cellulose acetate, any of the acrylics, polystyrene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, etc.
- the fastening means is applied with pressure and in a heated condition against the body portion of the badge.
- the fused plastic material is permitted to fiow through holes in the fastening means and permitted to solidify to effect a fused joint therebetween.
- the manufacturing process for making badges is materially simplified, badges may be made more economically, and the number of components is reduced to a minimum. While attaining these advantages, the badges of the present invention do not detract from the outward appearance of the badge, and the means for securing the attachment means to the body of the badge is not readily apparent from the front of the badge.
- FIGURE 1 is a longitudinal sectional View through a badge of the present invention.
- FIGURE 2 is a sectional view taken along the line 2 2 in FIGURE 1.
- FIGURE 3 is a partial perspective view of a badge in accordance with another embodiment of the present invention.
- FIGURE 1 a badge designated generally as 10.
- the badge 10 includes a body portion 12 of heat fusable plastic material including but not limited to the acrylics, cellulose acetate, polystyrene, polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, etc.
- the body 12 is a strip of material cut to the desired width and length. During the manufacture of the same, the step of cutting the body 12 to the desired length may be the ultimate step, if desired.
- a layer 14 of plastic material is joined t-o one face of the body 12. Layer 14 may be any conventional material having writings thereon or capable of being embossed or otherwise printed to contain any information or ornamental configurations.
- a protective layer of paper 16 having a pressure-sensitive coating is juxtaposed and adheres to the exposed face of the layer 14,
- a fastening means is applied to the rear face of the body 12.
- Such fastening means includes a thin, fiat, platelike section or layer of metal 18 having outwardly projecting prongs 20 at spaced points therealong.
- the prongs 20 extend through punched holes in metal 18 and the heads of the prongs are soldered or welded in place. Hence, the heads are not visible from above in FIGURE 1.
- the body 12 may have a thickness of approximately 0.10 inch and the layer of metal 18 may have a thickness of approxiately 0.03 inch.
- conventional spring clips 22 will be provided for each of the prongs 20.
- the layer of metal 18 is provided with a pair of holes 24 and 26. Holes 24 and 26 are preferably punched at the same time as the holes for the prongs. Integral projections 27 and 28 of plastic material from the body 12 extend through the holes 24 and 26, respectively. It will be noted that the free end of the projections 27 and 28 terminates in a bead having a diameter greater than the diameter of the holes 24 and 26. The projections 27 and 28 are fused to the layer of metal 18. A ridge 30 of plastic material from the body 12 extends around the periphery of the layer of metal 18.
- the body 12 is supported on any convenient surface below a platen.
- the attachment means will be supported by the platen and heated by a coil on the platen. Pressure will ybe applied by the platen to force the heated attachment means against the rear face of the body 12.
- the heat of the layer of metal 18 and the pressure with which it is applied against the body 12 cause the layer of metal 18 to 4be embedded in the body 12 so that the upper surface of the layer of metal 18 is substantially ush with the upper surface of the -body 12.
- the melted plastic material of the body 12 forms the ridge 36 and fuses upwardly through the holes 24 and 26 to form the projections 27 and 28.
- the attachment means When the fused plastic material of the body 12 has solidified, the attachment means will be 3 joined thereto by a fused joint.
- the enlarged bead at the free end of the projections 27 and 28 assures that the layer of metal 18 will be retained in a position locked against the body 12.
- a partial locking effect is also attained by the ridge 30 which overlaps the uppermost sur- Vface of the layer of metal 18.
- All of the above steps may be accomplished in a very short period of time and may be effected by automatic or semi-automatic equipment.
- the heating of the body 12 to effect a fused joint is only locally on the uppermost surface immediately adjacent the layer of metal 18. Thus, the heating equipment need not be large' or expensive, and the layers 14 and 16 may have been applied previously to the body 12.
- the body 12 may have previously been cut to the unit lengths which are desired or may be in strip form. If the attachment means are secured to the body 12 which is in strip form, with such attachment means being applied at spaced points therealong, the ultimate step in the method of manufacturing the badge 1()v of the present invention would be the step of cutting the strip into unit lengths between adjacent attachment means.
- the badge of the present yinvention may be made faster and more economically than badges proposed heretofore.
- FIGURE 3 there is illustrated another embodiment of the present invention desi-gnated generally at 10.
- the badge 10 is identical with the badge 10 except as will be made clear hereinafter. Hence, corresponding primed numerals are provided in FIGURE 3 for the corresponding elements of badge 10.
- Badge 10' differs from badge 10 in the provision of a different type of attachment means.
- the attachment means of badge 10' includes a layer of metal 18.
- Support 32 includes a pair of integral ears bent upwardly from the plane of the layer of metal 1S and rotatably support one end of a stick-pin 34.
- the free end of the stick-pin 34 is retained in a closed disposition by a conventional rotary latch 36 which is integral with the other end of the layer of metal 18.
- Holes corresponding to holes 24 and 26 are f provided in the layer of metal 1S between the support 1.
- a method of making a badge, brooch or the like comprising the steps of providing a layer of fusible plastic material, providing an attachment means having" a flat plate-like section, heating said section, pressing said heated section against a surface of said fusible plastic -material so that said heated section causes local melting of the fusible plastic material, said step of pressing being continued until said plastic material flows around and over at least a portion of the peripheral edge of said section and effects a fused joint between said section and j said fusible plastic material.
- a method of making a badge, brooch or the like comprising the steps of providing a layer of heat fusible plastic material, providing an vattachment means having a at plate-like section defined by a peripheral edge, heating said section to a temperature in excess of the melting point of said plastic material, pressing the heated section against the surface of said heat fusible plastic material so that portions of said layer of heat fusible plastic material adjacent said heated section are' caused to fuse, continuing said step of pressing said heated section until the upper surface of said section is substantially flush Vwith the upper surface of said layer so that fused portions of said layer tlow over and around at least a portion of the peripheral edge of said plate-like section, and allowing said fused portions of said layer to solidfy to form a heat fused joint between said layer and said section.
- a method of making a badge, Ibrooch or the like comprising the steps of providing a layer of fusible plastic material, providing an attachment means having a at plate-like section, providing at least one hole through 213,784 4/1879 Smith 1562-298 2,014,414 9/'1935 Schnee Stamm 156-298 3,081,077 3/1963 Sudman, 156-298 X EARL M.
