Description

Microwave Heating Compression Album Maker

The present invention relates to a compression type album production apparatus of microwave heating method, and more specifically, a support, a hot melt adhesive layer or a hot melt adhesive film, and UV coating photo to increase the water content to 20 to 50% in the compressed album manufacturing process Arrange and compress a plurality of sequentially stacked half album sheets, and then apply heat, and as a means for applying the heat, microwaves are used to generate heat through a plurality of supports containing moisture using a hot melt adhesive layer or hot melt. The present invention relates to a compression type album production apparatus that uniformly delivers the adhesive film to provide a uniform adhesive performance regardless of the compression position of the album sheet.

Albums are booklets for archiving photos.In addition to albums that contain pictures individually, albums can be produced by binding and binding a large amount of photos, such as graduation albums, or personal photos such as wedding albums or stone albums in the form of photo paper. There is an album produced by attaching to the surface of the inlay.

There are two main ways to make such albums, one of which is a compressed album and the other is a sticky album.

The compressed album is made of a method of binding the inlay and the outer surface of the pressure-sensitive adhesive and then attaching a photograph to the surface of the inlay using an adhesive, and applying pressure to finish the attachment. At this time, the adhesive is usually a liquid having a viscosity, and most of the pressure is applied to prevent wrinkles from occurring on the surface of the photograph attached with the liquid adhesive, and in some cases, the adhesive may be heated.

Next, the self-adhesive album is manufactured so that the surface of the inlay itself is treated with a pressure-sensitive adhesive, and attaches a release paper, which is a release paper, to the surface of the inlay treated with pressure-sensitive adhesive to produce a book-shaped semi-finished album in a bound state together with the outer paper. When completing the inlay is configured to remove the surface release paper and attach the photo to the inlay.

Especially in the case of high-quality albums that hold commemorative photographs such as wedding albums, graduation albums, and stone albums, the images are arranged in various directions and multiple photos are arranged in one sheet. The album is manufactured by compressing rather than adhesive because it is arranged so that only one photo is exposed to the outside.

However, in the case of high-quality album manufactured by compression type, the cumbersome work of attaching photos by adhesive is required, and mass production takes considerable time, and labor costs also increase album production costs.

In order to solve the above disadvantages, the applicant of the Republic of Korea Patent Registration No. 10-1018500 (registered on Feb. 22, 2011), the step of preparing an inlay consisting of a support and a hot melt adhesive film laminated on the surface of the support; Creating a plurality of half-albums in which UV-coated photos and the inlays are arranged in order; Putting a heat transfer plate between the plurality of half albums, and then first compressing the half albums to prevent the flow of the photograph; Melting the hot melt adhesive film by placing the first compressed half album and the heat transfer plate in an oven and heating with hot air; Removing the half album and the heat transfer plate from the oven, and secondly compressing the half album and then cooling the half album; After cutting the half album was presented a method of manufacturing a compressed album comprising a step of completing the album by combining the cover.

The pre-registration is to insert a heat transfer plate with a high heat transfer rate between the plurality of half albums (sheets) to transfer the oven heat to the inside so that the contact with the support by the hot melt adhesive film by the even heat transfer is made to contact. However, even though the pre-registration improves the uniformity of heat transfer in the half album, the difference in heat transfer may occur in the part directly exposed to the outside and the surface contacting with the heat transfer plate, resulting in poor adhesion.

In addition, the heat transfer plate may be inserted between each half album sheet to eliminate the heat transfer difference, but this is because the thickness of the heat transfer plate decreases the production amount once, and it is cumbersome to insert or remove the heat transfer plate between the half albums and takes a lot of work time. There is a disadvantage.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the accompanying drawings are only examples for easily describing the content and scope of the technical idea of the present invention, and thus the technical scope of the present invention is not limited or changed. In addition, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and changes can be made within the scope of the present invention based on these examples.

As shown, in the method of manufacturing a compressed album according to the present invention, a first step is performed in which humidification is performed to increase the moisture content of the support to 20 to 50%.

The support has strength enough to prevent warpage, and a hot melt adhesive layer or a hot melt adhesive film may be used as various materials that can be easily applied or laminated, and typically there is a hard board made of paper.

Moisture is added to the support so that heat is generated by the microwaves that are subsequently irradiated. As the method of adding the moisture, a method of supplying by humidification or directly spraying water may be applied, and the supplied water may have a particle size as small as possible so that moisture is evenly absorbed without being concentrated on any one side of the support surface. can do. When the water content is 20% or less, it is difficult to generate sufficient heat by microwave irradiation, and when the water content is 50% or more, there is a problem that distortion occurs in the support during drying due to excessive moisture absorption.

Next, a second step of preparing an inlay composed of the support having the water content of 20 to 50% and a hot melt adhesive layer applied to the surface of the support or a hot melt adhesive film laminated on the surface of the support is performed.

The hot melt adhesive film or hot melt adhesive layer is to be pressed on the surface of the support, it has no adhesive properties at room temperature and melted at a predetermined temperature or more to provide an adhesive force. The material of the hot melt adhesive forming the hot melt film or hot melt adhesive layer is 70 to 75% by weight of ethylene vinyl acetate, 20 to 25% by weight of Lanoplace MP45, 1 to 1.5% by weight of phenol resin, 1 to 1.5% by weight of Kps wax. Nylon powder contains 1 to 1.5% by weight.

In order to form the inlay, a hot melt adhesive layer may be formed by stacking or applying a hot melt adhesive film on both sides of the support, or a hot melt adhesive film or hot melt adhesive layer may be formed only on one surface of the support. That is, in the case of the inlay forming the first page and the end page of the half album to form a hot melt adhesive film or a hot melt adhesive layer on only one surface it can be prevented from adhering to another half album in the process described below.

Next, a third step of preparing a sheet by stacking UV-coated photographs on the surface of the inlay and arranging the sheets in order is performed. The picture is UV coated on the outside of the picture to withstand high heat. That is, when the hot melt adhesive film is laminated or hot melt adhesive layer formed on both sides of the support, the photo is laminated on the hot melt adhesive film or the surface of the hot melt adhesive layer on both sides of the support, respectively, and the hot melt adhesive film is laminated or hot melt adhesive layer only on one side of the support. When this is formed, the photo is laminated only on the surface on which the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer is laminated to prepare a sheet composed of the support and the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer and the photo. The sheets are stacked in a semi-album state by sequentially stacking sheets on which images are formed in album order. Of course, a plurality of identical images may be arranged in addition to the album order, and then rearranged to produce a half album.

As described above, the half album manufactured as described above is subjected to a fourth step of stacking and fixing a plurality of sheets of each half album by pressing a stack. In the compressing step, it is preferable to pressurize the pressure so that the photo constituting the half album sheet and the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer are weakly adhered and do not flow.

The plurality of half albums subjected to the compression of the fourth step are placed in a microwave chamber in a fixed state on a tray to irradiate microwaves to vibrate moisture molecules of the support constituting the sheet to generate heat, and generate heat. A fifth step of transferring the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer laminated on the silver support to melt the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer to attach the photo with the support is performed.

The microwave refers to an electromagnetic wave region of 1 mm to 1 m having a frequency (frequency) of 300 MHz to 300 GHz. In the present invention, a microwave having a frequency (frequency) of 2 to 3 GHz is used to generate heat by vibrating a water molecule of a support that is an object.

The range of the output of the microwave can be set in various ways, typically, it is preferable to form a range of 600 ~ 1200W which is generally used for home use to minimize the effect on the human body. In addition, the time to be irradiated may vary depending on the amount of content, but is usually irradiated in the range of 3 to 10 minutes to vibrate the water molecules of the support having a water content of 20 to 50% by the heat generated by the hot melt adhesive film or hot melt adhesive layer Melting takes place to allow adhesion to occur.

In addition, the hot melt adhesive film or hot melt adhesive layer is melted by heating, the volume is increased. Since the plurality of half albums are fixed at both ends, the volume increase force of the hot melt adhesive film or hot melt adhesive layer constitutes a plurality of half albums. It acts as a pressing force for pressing the sheet.

A sixth step of taking out the tray to which the heated half album is fixed in the microwave chamber and cooling is performed. The cooling may be carried out at room temperature or allowed to cool slowly in a thermostat. That is, if the half album heated to a high temperature by microwave irradiation is rapidly cooled, deformation may occur due to a partial cooling speed imbalance. Of course, the deformation width is reduced by compression, but fine deformation cannot be prevented, so that the cooling is gradually performed in order to prevent the source.

Therefore, it may be allowed to cool slowly by being settled for 10 to 30 minutes in a thermostat maintaining the temperature at 20 ~ 25 ℃ can of course be varied without fixing the temperature of the thermostat in the above range. For example, since the half album heated by microwaves has a temperature of 40 ° C. or more, the initial temperature of the thermostatic chamber in which the half album is placed may be set to 35 ° C., and the cooling may be gradually performed by lowering the temperature every predetermined time. For example, the time and the temperature change may be made in a multistage temperature setting, such as a 5 ° C drop in 5 minutes to minimize the temperature difference between the half album temperature and the thermostat bath.

When the cooling is completed, a seventh step of separating and cutting the half album fixed to the tray and combining the covers to complete the album is performed.

Such a manufacturing method of the present invention can be made to transfer heat evenly to the inside of the half album even if the heat transfer plate is not inserted as in the conventional registration can simplify the work process. In addition, due to the uniform heat transfer, the adhesive force of the hot melt adhesive film or the hot melt adhesive layer can be made to work uniformly, and can prevent the torsion of the product due to the difference in cooling process by preventing rapid cooling by the thermostat. Can improve the quality.
