Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a transfer letter consisting of a letter image applied detachably to a temporary base and designed to be transferred to a permanent base in the form of a text etc. removing the occasional bases.
  • the letter P has a large light space in the lower part to the right
  • the letter A has a large light space in the upper part
  • the letter T a large light space in the lower part.
  • the invention is meant to facilitate the composition of different letters so that the proper gaps of light are present between the letters. This is achieved by the marks applied on the temporary base which indicate the relative lateral placing together with other letter images with regard to the light spaces that are formed by adjacent letters.
  • FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 each shows one different transfer letter in accordance with the invention
  • FIG. 4 shows one embodiment seen from the edge with exaggerated thickness of material
  • FIG. 5 shows another embodiment seen from the edge
  • FIG. 6 shows letters mounted on a setting rail
  • FIG. 7 shows the setting rail with the letters seen from the end.
  • the transfer letter is of a common type, i.e. it consists in one design as per FIGS. l-3 and 4 of a printed letter image 1 of rectangular shape printed on a thin transparent plastic film coated on the back with an adhesive layer.
  • the plastic film is placed on a base 2 of paper divided into two different halves 2a and 2b separated from each other. The lower part of the plastic film 1 and the base 2 is lengthened below the letter.
  • the plastic film is separated from the rest of the letter image and provided with a broad horizontal line 3 intended for the adjusting of the letters on the line after one another, and is also provided with one or more marks 4 in the shape of short vertical lines starting from the horizontal line 3 upwards or downwards.
  • FIG. 5 An arrow 5 points towards the line and beside this arrow the letters are indicated to which the mark concerned 4 applies.
  • a mark 4 is indicated for the position of this letter together with the letters K, L, T, V and Y.
  • the letter A has two marks 4, one for the letters P, T, V, Y and one for F.
  • a stamped letter image 6 is used provided with an adhesive layer on the back and placed on a base 2 equal to the design described first. On the part of the base protruding below the letter the necessary marks are printed on or applied in other ways directly on the base, as shown in FIGS. 1-3.
  • a setting rail 7 has been designed.
  • this rail consists of two rails 7a, 7b, principally U-shaped, the shanks of which are resilient towards each other and joined against each other on the longitudinal sides.
  • the rail 7 can be designed in other ways, for instance as a piece in the shape of an M.
  • the letters are placed in the same succession as they are to appear in the text.
  • they are also placed at the right distance from each other by means of the marks 4 on each letter.
  • the setting rail 7 being provided with two grooves, the letters can be set in the different grooves so as to facilitate the overlapping.
  • the text can easily be placed in the required position on the base horizontally and with relation to the centre. With this rail the text can also be spaced out to the desired width.
  • a transfer letter comprising a letter image detachably carried by a temporary base for transfer to a permanent base together with other letter images of similar design, said temporary base having thereon a plurality of marks that indicate the correct lateral position of the letter image relative to other letter images, and different indicia for each of said marks indicating the identity of the adjacent 3 4 letters for which each mark serves to indicate the correct 2,970,043 1/ 1961 Serafin 33-174 B spacing.
