Description

用于在服饰上显示图像的装置
技术领域
本公开涉及用于显示图像的装置，更具体地，涉及用于在服饰上显示图像的装置。
背景技术
很多物体包括增加物体美感以及使物体更吸引人并且独特的一些特征。例如，鞋类物件，如鞋、靴、凉鞋等，可包括多种颜色的搭配部分、设计、贴花、装饰缝缀等。
但是，这些特征可能仅为二维的，和/或所述特征可能不包括高细节度。这可能是因为制造约束、成本等。这样，这些特征可能缺乏一些视觉和/或触觉吸引力。
而且，暗花装饰为由厚度横跨其宽度和长度变化的刚性材料制成的装置。厚度中的变化对应于预定图案，并且当暗花装饰从背后照亮时，图像显现。该图像可能具有高细节度。
但是，可能很难或无法将暗花装饰包括到一些物体中。例如，从背后照亮所述暗花装饰对于一些物体，例如鞋类物件，可能是个问题，因为只有相对小的空间来包括光源。而且，由于暗花装饰通常为刚性的，因此可能很难将暗花装饰包括在柔软物体中。而且，为了使图像具有高细节度，暗花装饰自身应具有高细节度，并且这样，制造具有暗花装饰的这样的物体可能是效率低和昂贵的。
发明内容
因此，除了上述的已知装置的改进之外，仍存在有对包括基本上不透明的背景层的图像显示装置的需要。所述装置还包括半透明的显示层。所述显示层包括面向所述背景层的内表面，并且所述内表面是基本上平滑的。所述显示层还包括背离所述背景层的外表面，并且所述外表面包括多个升高区域和多个凹入区域。所述显示层具有透过凹入区域的提高的光透射率，和透过升高区域的降低的光透视率，以使所述升高的和凹入的区域之间的光透射率的差异产生图像。
还公开了一种显示图像的方法。所述方法包括在显示层上产生图像。所述显示层包括基本上平滑的内表面，并且所述显示层还包括外表面，所述外表面包括多个升高区域和多个凹入区域。所述显示层具有透过所述凹入区域的提高的光透射率，和透过所述升高区域的降低的光透射率，以使所述升高和凹入区域之间的透射率的差异产生图像。而且，所述方法包括将所述显示层操作地支撑在基本上不透明的背景层上，以使所述内表面面向所述背景层，并且所述外表面背离所述背景层。
而且，公开了一种鞋类物件，其包括鞋面，所述鞋面包括基本上不透明的柔性背景层。所述背景层包括基本上平滑的外表面。所述鞋类物件还包括固定到所述背景层的所述外表面的柔性显示层。所述显示层为半透明和聚合物的，并且所述显示层包括面向并且直接邻接所述背景层的所述外表面的内表面。所述内表面为基本上平滑的。而且，所述显示层还包括背离所述背景层的外表面，并且所述显示层的所述外表面包括多个升高区域和多个凹入区域。而且，所述显示层包含着色剂，与所述多个凹入区域相比较，所述着色剂在所述多个升高区域中具有更高的浓度。所述显示层具有透过所述凹入区域的提高的光透射率，和透过所述升高区域的降低的光透射率，以使所述升高和降低区域之间的透射率的差异产生图像。
该部分提供了本公开的大概概述，而并非对其全部范围或全部特征的全面的公开。可基于此处公开的描述而明了其他的应用领域。该概述中的描述和具体示例仅意图用作说明目的，而不意图限制本公开的范围。

相应的附图标记在若干幅视图中示出了相应的部分。
具体实施方式
现在将参照附图，更详细地描述示例性实施例。
首先参照图1和2，示出了根据本公开的多个示例性实施例的具有图像显示装置11的物体10。如图所示，物体10可以是鞋类物件12；但是应意识到，物体10可以是任何适当类型，例如其他服饰（例如帽子、衬衣、裤子）、配搭物（例如耳环、头带）、行包、设备、音乐播放器外壳等。而且，如图1中所示，鞋类物件12可以是鞋；但是应意识到，鞋类物件12可以是靴子、凉鞋、拖鞋或任何其他适当类型的鞋12。
鞋类物件12可包括鞋底组件16。鞋底组件16可包括外底（没有具体显示），用于提供鞋12的附着摩擦力。而且，鞋底组件16可包括中底（没有具体显示），用于提供对鞋12的穿着者的缓冲支撑。而且，鞋类物件12可包括鞋面14。鞋面14可包括多个交搭的材料镶片，其限定用于接纳穿着者脚的腔20。鞋面14还可包括鞋带、绑带、搭扣（pile tape）或用于将穿着者的脚固定到鞋12的腔20内部的其他结构。
如上面所述，鞋类物件12还可包括图像显示装置11。图像显示装置11可布置在鞋12的任何适当位置中，例如鞋面14上。更具体地，在图1中图示的实施例中，图像显示装置11可布置在鞋面14的外侧镶片13上；但是，图像显示装置11也可布置在鞋舌15、绑带或鞋面上的任何其他适当位置上。而且，在一些实施例中，图像显示装置11可布置在鞋底组件16上，例如在中底侧壁上，在流体填充的囊的露出的侧壁上，或在鞋底组件16的外底上。
图像显示装置11可类似于暗花装饰；但是，图像显示装置11可包括允许图像26在没有背光的情况下显示的若干结构。而且，图像显示装置11可以是柔性的，从而与传统的暗花装饰相比较，图像显示装置11可包括在更宽范围的物体10内。另外，图像显示装置11可比传统的暗花装饰更高效地制造，如将在下面更详细讨论的。
通常，图像显示装置11可包括背景层22和显示层24（图2）。显示层24可显示图像26，如将在下面更详细讨论的。如图所示，图像26可以是三维图像。而且，图像26可具有高细节度。例如，图像26在一些实施例中可以是人的逼真的脸，其包括头发、皮肤结构、肌肉等。但是，应意识到，图像26可以是任何物体、设计、标志、商标等而不偏离本公开的范围。图像26可显著地增强鞋12的美感。而且，图像显示装置11可如将讨论的，以高效的相对低成本的方式制造。
背景层22可由任何适当的材料制成。例如，背景层22可由柔性材料，例如皮革、尼龙等制成。在一些实施例中，背景层22可设置在鞋面14上或包括在鞋面14中。例如，背景层22可形成鞋面14的一部分，并且可与鞋面14是一体的。在其他实施例中，背景层22可与鞋面14重叠，并且可以可拆卸地结合到鞋面，例如通过缝合、粘合等。如所说明的，图像显示装置11可包括在任何适当的物体中，例如不同于鞋12的服饰；因而，在这些实施例中，背景层22可由T恤的材料、手提包的带等限定。
而且，如图2中所示，背景层22可包括外表面28和内表面30。内表面30可面向鞋12的腔20。外表面28可与内表面30相对。而且，外表面28也可基本上是平滑的。
而且，背景层22可以是基本上不透明的。因而，光不可能透过背景层22。应意识到，背景层22可具有任何适当的颜色。
如上面说明的，图像显示装置11可包括显示层24。显示层24可由任何适当的材料制成。例如，显示层24可由透明、半透明、聚合物、柔性材料，例如聚氨酯等制成。而且，在一些实施例中，显示层24可包含热塑性无纺材料，例如2009年2月6日提交的美国专利申请序列号No.12/367,274中公开的那些材料，所述专利申请以其全部内容，以引用的方式并入本文中。而且，在一些实施例中，显示层24可包含悬浮在透明或半透明基材中的着色剂40（图2），例如染色剂或反射材料斑点。着色剂40可使显示层24与背景层22的颜色形成对比，以使图像26更明显。但是，应意识到，着色剂40是可任选的，并且显示层24可以是清澈透明的，而不偏离本公开的范围。
如图2中所示，显示层24可包括内表面32和外表面34。内表面32可以是基本上平滑的，并且可面向背景层22。内表面32可以可操作地支撑在背景层22的外表面28上。在一些实施例中，内表面32可直接邻接并且可固定到与背景层22的外表面28。外表面34可与内表面32相对。
而且，如图2中所示，外表面28可包括多个升高区域36和多个凹入区域38。这样，显示层24可在升高区域36处更厚，并且可在凹入区域38处更薄。如将讨论的，升高区域36和凹入区域38可布置在与图像26对应的预定位置处。
由于显示层24是半透明的，因此光可至少部分地透过显示层24。更具体地，显示层24可具有透过凹入区域38的提高的光透射率。而且，显示层24可具有透过升高区域36的降低的光透过率。
因而，在图3中图示的实施例中，光可更容易地透过显示层24的在凹入区域38处的厚度，并且光可从背景层22反射。这样，背景层22的颜色可在凹入区域38处更容易地透过显示层显示。如果背景层22为黑色，则光可基本上被吸收，这样，背景层22的黑色通过凹入区域38显示。
而且，光可能较不易于透过显示层24的在升高区域36处的厚度，并且光更可能从显示层24反射，而没有到达背景层22。这样，背景层22的颜色更不容易透过显示层24在升高区域36处显示。
因此，升高区域36和凹入区域38之间的光透射率的该差异可能产生图像26。例如，显示层24在特定升高区域36处的厚度越厚，则特定升高区域36可能显示得更亮，并且显示层24在特定凹入区域38处的厚度越低，则特定凹入区域38可能显示得越暗。如图2中所示，显示层24可能在升高和凹入区域36,38之间具有厚度方面非常平滑连续的过渡，这样，图像26可能是具有高细节度的、逼真的并且立体的。因此，鞋12可能在美观方面更赏心悦目。而且，由于外表面34具有浮雕状外形，因此显示层可能摸起来更令人愉悦。
另外，如图2中所示，与凹入区域38相比较，着色剂40可能以更高的浓度积聚在升高区域36中。如果着色剂40为染色剂，则更高的浓度可能使升高区域36呈现比凹入区域38更深的颜色。如果着色剂40包含反射材料斑点，则升高区域36可能比凹入区域38更反光。这可能使用各种制造技术来实现，如将在下面详细讨论的。这样，图像26可在升高区域36和凹入区域38之间显示更高的对比度，以更明显。
参照图3-5，示出了鞋12的制造方法的示例性实施例。如图5中所示，所述方法可包括使用扫描装置44扫描图像42。图像42可以是任何类型，例如照片、签名、标志或使用者期望成为鞋12上的图像的任何其他图像42。扫描装置44可以可操作地连接到软件，例如CAD/CAM软件（例如可从英国的DelCam PLCDELCAM商购的DELCAM软件）。因而，扫描装置44可以电子方式绘出图像42的每一个像素，并且生成图像42的电子（例如数码）副本。
而且，扫描装置44可以可操作地连接到模具制造装置45，其可接收图像42的电子副本，并且可制成模具46（图3）。模具制造装置45可包括用于制成模具46的铣床或其他装置。更具体地，模具制造装置45可在模具46中形成对应于显示层24的升高区域36和凹入区域38的型腔47。模具46可由任何适当材料制成，例如金属、聚合物等。
如图3中所示，坯件48可施加到背景层28。如将讨论的，显示层24可通过成型坯件48来形成。在一些实施例中，坯件48可以是基本上矩形的实体材料件。另外，如图3中所示，坯件48可包含着色剂40，并且着色剂40可基本上均匀地分散在坯件48中。
而且，在图3中所示的一些实施例中，坯件48可放置在背景层28顶上而不固定到背景层28；但是，坯件48可附着到背景层28而不偏离本公开的范围。这可在背景层28结合到鞋12的其他部分之前或之后进行。而且，在设置在背景层28时，坯件48可处于室温。
于是，如图4中所示，模具46可压靠坯件48和背景层22，因此模具46使坯件48变形，并且使坯件48基本上充满型腔47（即挤压成型）。在一些实施例中，模具46可在压靠坯件48和背景层22之前，加热到高于室温，并且来自模具46的高热度和压力可使坯件48变形为型腔47的形状。应意识到，模具46的热度、由模具46施加的压力和其他制造变量可根据正被制造的各个显示装置11来调节。
而且，在一些实施例中，来自模具46的热度和压力可使着色剂40在坯件48中移动。例如，在一些实施例中，来自模具46的热和压力可使着色剂40集中在升高区域36中。这样，与凹入区域38相比较，着色剂40可在升高区域36中处于更高的浓度。因此，不同的着色剂40的浓度可使升高区域36与凹入区域38进一步形成对比。
在通过模具46变形之后，坯件48可固化（例如通过冷却、UV固化等），以再凝固，并且形成显示层24。固化也可使显示层24完全附着并且固定到背景层22，并且模具46可拔出。这样，显示层24（和图像26）可基本上在显示层24固定到背景层22上的同时形成。因此，可非常高效地以高生产量制造鞋12。
在其他实施例中，模具46可压靠背景层22，于是型腔47可被以材料填充，所述材料然后在型腔47内固化，以形成显示层24，并且将显示层24固定到背景层22。而且，在一些实施例中，模具46的型腔47被以材料填充，背景层22放置在型腔47上方，并且模具46中的材料在型腔47内固化，以形成显示层24，并且将显示层24固定到背景层22。
在其他实施例中，显示器24可与背景层22分开成形或铸造，随后将形成的显示层24固定到背景层22。
因而，鞋12可能由于由图像显示装置11显示的高细节度和独特的图像26在美观方面赏心悦目。图像显示装置11也可给鞋12提供独特的触觉品质。而且，图像显示装置11可以高效率的方式制造。
而且，鞋12可定制来包括定制图像26。例如，图像显示装置11可以是定制工艺中用户的一个选项。更具体地，用户可能通过将期望的图像42发送给鞋12的制造商来定制鞋12。制造商可然后制成用于制造模具46的图像42的电子副本，然后图像显示装置11可如上面所讨论地形成，并且包括在鞋12上。例如，该类型的系统可包括在由耐克公司（Nike,Inc.ofBeaverton，Oregon）提供的NIKEIDTM系统中。在其他实施例中，图像显示装置11可在相对短的时间段内，以零售装置形成，和/或附着到鞋10。
实施例的此前的描述已出于示例和描述的目的被给出。其不意图为穷尽的，或用于限制本发明。特定实施例的各自的元件或特征总体地不限于该特定的实施例，而是，当适用时，是可互换的，且可在选定的实施例中使用，即使并未具体地示出或描述。也可以多种方式使前述各自的元件或特征变形。这样的变形形式不应认为偏离本发明，且全部这样的修改形式意图被包括在本发明的范围中。
