Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a coloured cover for a cellular telephone or similar device, in which a coloured membrane, which conforms to the three-dimensional shape of the cover, is manufactured on top of the cover of the cellular telephone.
  • the invention also relates to a colour image blank according to the method.
  • the invention particularly concerns devices such as palm computers, and also other devices.
  • detachable covers that are, as such, known.
  • some degree of variety can also be achieved in the external appearance of a cellular phone, but their manufacture requires its own mould and is thus quite difficult.
  • US publication 5,229,201 discloses a method for applying a decal on a porous surface.
  • a binding agent is spread on a porous surface, so that the method is not suitable for hard surfaces.
  • Japanese patent publication JP10203094 discloses a decal membrane structure, in which an image layer covered by a covering layer is manufactured on top of a layer of soluble resin. After the transfer, the covering layer is removed from on top of the image. The covering layer inevitably makes it difficult to shape the image on strongly curved surfaces.
  • the invention is intended to create an entirely new type of method for manufacturing a coloured cover for a cellular telephone or similar, and a colour image blank for use in the method.
  • the characteristics of the invention are stated in the accompanying Claims .
  • As the colour image blank can be made by means of a printing technique, this becomes a simple way of permitting considerable variation in relation to the colour image itself, and of manufacturing colour printing even on telephones that do not have a detachable cover.
  • Figure 1 shows an offset-printed sheet of colour images containing several colour image blanks.
  • Figure 2 shows a colour image blank in detail.
  • Figure 3 shows the colour image blank being transferred on top of a cellular telephone.
  • Figure 4 shows a schematic cross-section of the colour image blank.
  • Wax paper (meta 2000) is used as the base of the colour image blanks, so that the finished colour blank can be slid along it when it is wetted.
  • Pale preferably white images, with the shape of the colour image, are first of all manufactured on the wax paper base by means of serigraphy (silk-screen printing) . This performs two functions. Firstly, it provides the colours an even, pale background, and secondly it forms the body of the blank.
  • serigraphed sheets 1 are run through offset printing, so that four-colour images are imposed on top of the white serigraphy areas. In the printing, so-called UV colours, which will resist sunlight, are used. The same sheet contains several images, which in practice are separated by cutting.
  • surface lacquering (thickness about 0,1 mm) is also carried out, preferably by serigraphy, making it essentially thicker than the colour layer.
  • surface lacquering can be carried out afterwards, or the user themselves can use a spray can of lacquer to apply the final layer of lacquer on top of the transferred product.
  • Serigraphy can be used to manufacture a membrane of such thickness that it will support the colour image essentially without other layers and particularly without a detachable cover layer.
  • Surface lacquering will, of course, reinforce the transferrable structure and thus facilitate the transfer.
  • the colour image blank includes an image designed for a specific cellular telephone, in which the colour printing is concentrated on the body part, and to a desired degree, on the sides.
  • the shape of the openings can vary. Usually, a simple slit will be sufficient, so that the opposing edges can even overlap each other.
  • the colour image blank is wetted prior to use, so that it begins to slide on the wax paper.
  • the colour image blank is cut out separately, in such a way that the background is scarcely larger than the colour image. According to Figure 3, it can then be slid over the edge onto the top of the cellular telephone 4 and set precisely in place.
  • the base 1 is pulled away gradually as the colour image blank 2 is attached on top of the body. Immediately after this, the colour image blank will still slide slightly on top of the body and can be set precisely in place by tapping it with a finger. A moment later it will have dried and adhered firmly in place.
  • the blank is printed on wax paper 1, on top of which the serigraphy 2 is first of all made.
  • the actual image is made by four-colour-offset printing 6, which is, as such, a known technique.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un couvercle à image en couleur pour un téléphone cellulaire (4) ou analogue. Le procédé consiste à réaliser par sérigraphie un fond pâle sur du papier ciré (1) ou sur une base similaire; à réaliser, sur ce fond pâle, une impression couleur (2) qui, lorsqu'elle est étalée, correspond à la forme tridimensionnelle définitive de la membrane couleur. L'impression couleur est mouillée de manière à glisser sur la base (1) et s'assouplir à l'état mouillé. L'impression couleur (2) est ensuite transférée sur le bord de la base, à la surface du couvercle du téléphone cellulaire (4). L'impression couleur (2) est appliquée par pression avec un doigt pour lui conférer la forme appropriée, puis laissée à durcir.
