Abstract

Transferring a pattern on an original onto a new carrier is performed with the aid of an intermediate carrier which is a laser photocopy of the pattern. Pattern-forming material on the intermediate carrier is transferred to the new carrier liquefied by the use of heat and using pressure, because the nature of the intermediate carrier and of the new carrier are selected such that their adhesive power is different for the pattern-forming material.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Uebertragen von Motiven einer ursprünglichen Unterlage auf einen neuen Träger unter Verwendung eines Zwischenträgers.The invention relates to a method for transferring motifs of an original base onto a new carrier using an intermediate carrier.

In der DE-B-1 771 863 ist ein Verfahren beschrieben, bei dem unter Verwendung einer Schichtfolie das auf einer ursprünglichen Unterlage mittels Druckverfahren hergestellte Motiv auf eine neue Unterlage übertragen wird. Dieses Verfahren ist sehr aufwendig und der Aufbau der Schichtfolie kompliziert.DE-B-1 771 863 describes a method in which the motif produced on an original base by means of a printing process is transferred to a new base using a layered film. This process is very complex and the structure of the layer film is complicated.

In der DE-C-27 57 630 ist ein Verfahren zur Uebertragung von durch ein Druckverfahren bewirkten Motiven beschrieben. Bei diesem Verfahren wird das Motiv durch Applikation einer Flüssigkeit von einer flexiblen ursprünglichen Unterlage gelöst und mit Hilfe von Druck auf die neue Unterlage übertragen. Zur seitenrichtigen Uebertragung wird von der ursprünglichen Unterlage eine Kopie auf einer Klarsichtfolie hergestellt. Diese Klarsichtfolie wird anschliessend kopiert, und die Kopie wird dann als ursprüngliche Unterlage verwendet.DE-C-27 57 630 describes a method for transmitting motifs caused by a printing method. In this process, the motif is detached from a flexible original base by applying a liquid and transferred to the new base using pressure. A copy of the original document is made on a transparent film for correct transfer. This transparent film is then copied and the copy is then used as the original document.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Verfahren der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei dem die Uebertragung auf rein physikalischem Weg und ohne Lösungsmittel, d.h. auf trockenen Wege erfolgt.The invention has for its object to provide a method of the type mentioned, in which the transmission is purely physical and without solvent, i.e. done on dry roads.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass man

  • das Motiv auf der ursprünglichen Unterlage auf den Zwischenträger kopiert, wobei das auf den Zwischenträger übertragene Motiv aus einem Material ausgewählt aus der Gruppe Toner, Pigment gebildet wird und
  • das motivbildende Material auf dem Zwischenträger rein physikalisch auf den neuen Träger überträgt, wobei der Zwischenträger und der neue Träger beim Uebertragungsvorgang planparallel oder tangential zueinander angeordnet sind.
According to the invention, this object is achieved in that
  • the motif on the original base is copied onto the intermediate carrier, the motif transferred to the intermediate carrier being formed from a material selected from the group consisting of toner, pigment and
  • transfers the motif-forming material on the intermediate carrier to the new carrier purely physically, the intermediate carrier and the new carrier being coplanar or tangential to one another during the transfer process are arranged.

Die wesentlichen Vorteile des Verfahrens sind darin zu sehen, dass
   das Verfahren in der Anwendung sehr einfach ist,
   das Verfahren ohne Lösungsmittel durchgeführt wird,
   das Verfahren mit geringstem Aufwand ausgeführt wird, und
   das Verfahren mit ursprünglichen Unterlagen durchführbar ist, die nicht flexible sind.
The main advantages of the process can be seen in the fact that
the procedure is very simple to use
the process is carried out without solvent,
the method is carried out with the least effort, and
the procedure can be carried out with original documents that are not flexible.

Es ist von Vorteil, wenn man einen Zwischenträger verwendet, dessen Material das aufgebrachte, motivbildende Material während eines vorbestimmten Zeitraumes unter Anwendung von Druck und Wärme ohne Veränderung seiner Struktur und Form zu ca. 100% an den neuen Träger abgibt.It is advantageous if an intermediate carrier is used, the material of which the applied motif-forming material is released to the new carrier for a predetermined period of time using pressure and heat without changing its structure and shape.

Beim erfindungsgemässen Verfahren kann man die Beschaffenheit des Zwischenträgers und des neuen Trägers so auswählen, dass deren Adhäsionsvermögen für das motivbildende Material unterschiedlich sind. Dadurch ist es möglich, den Anwendungsbereich für das erfindungsgemässe Verfahren zu erweitern.In the method according to the invention, the nature of the intermediate carrier and of the new carrier can be selected so that their adhesiveness for the motif-forming material is different. This makes it possible to extend the scope of application for the method according to the invention.

Nachfolgend wird die Erfindung anhand von Ausführungsbeispielen des erfindungsgemässen Verfahrens erläutert.The invention is explained below on the basis of exemplary embodiments of the method according to the invention.

Beispiel 1example 1

Ein auf einem Papierbogen vorhandener schwarzer Schriftzug soll auf einen Hartkarton übertragen werden.A black lettering on a sheet of paper should be transferred to a hard cardboard.

In einem ersten Schritt wird der Schriftzug in einem an sich bekannten Laserkopiergerät auf eine Folie kopiert, die einen Zwischenträger bildet. Dabei wird aufgebrachter Zweikomponententoner schwarz im Fotokopierer durch eine Wärmewalze bei einer Temperatur von 140° C fixiert.In a first step, the lettering is copied onto a film in a laser copier known per se, which forms an intermediate carrier. Applied black two-component toner is fixed in the photocopier by a heat roller at a temperature of 140 ° C.

In einem zweiten Schritt wird die Folie mit dem schriftzugbildenden Toner auf die Oberfläche des Hartkartons gelegt. Diese Anordnung wird danach erfindungsgemäss während eines bestimmten Zeitraumes, der im Bereich von 3 - 60 Sek. liegt, einem Druck von ca. 5 - 70 N/cm² und einer bestimmten Temperatur ausgesetzt, die zwischen 95 und 115° C liegt, um den schriftzugbildenden Toner von der Folie auf die Oberfläche des Hartkartons zu übertragen.In a second step, the film is with the lettering-forming toner placed on the surface of the hard cardboard. This arrangement is then, according to the invention, subjected to a pressure of approximately 5 to 70 N / cm 2 and a certain temperature, which is between 95 and 115 ° C., around the lettering for a specific period of time in the range from 3 to 60 seconds Transfer toner from the film to the surface of the hard cardboard.

Wie dem vorstehenden zu entnehmen ist, spielt die Folie eine besondere Rolle bei der Uebertragung. Hierzu muss erfindungsgemäss die Folie so beschaffen sein, dass der auf der Oberfläche aufgebrachte schriftzugbildende Toner einerseits nach der Fixierung im Farbkopierer an dieser Oberfläche ausreichend haftet und andererseits die Möglichkeit bietet, beim Andrücken des Hartkartons den schriftzugbildenden Toner zu 100% von der Oberfläche zu lösen. Der Uebertragungsvorgang läuft wie folgt ab. Der schriftzugbildende Toner auf der Oberfläche der Folie wird unter dem Einfluss der Temperatur verflüssigt und unter dem Einfluss des Druckes auf die Oberfläche des Hartkartons übertragen.As can be seen from the above, the film plays a special role in the transmission. For this purpose, according to the invention, the film must be such that, on the one hand, the lettering-forming toner applied to the surface adheres sufficiently to this surface after being fixed in the color copier and, on the other hand, offers the possibility of removing 100% of the lettering-forming toner from the surface when the hard cardboard is pressed on. The transfer process is as follows. The lettering-forming toner on the surface of the film is liquefied under the influence of temperature and transferred to the surface of the hard cardboard under the influence of pressure.

Der Partikeltransfer erfolgt aufgrund der erfindungsgemässen Auswahl der Beschaffenheit der Folie und des Hartkartons derart, dass deren Adhäsionsvermögen für den schriftzugbildenden Toner unterschiedlich sind.The particle transfer takes place on the basis of the selection according to the invention of the nature of the film and the hard cardboard in such a way that their adhesiveness for the lettering-forming toner is different.

Das vorstehend beschriebene Verfahren wird auf einem Anlagesystem durchgeführt, das ein Laser-Farbkopiergerät und eine Uebertragungsvorrichtung umfasst. Das Laser-Kopiergerät ist an sich bekannt und wird daher nicht beschrieben. Die Uebertragungsvorrichtung bildet das neue Kernstück und enthält eine Heizplatte und eine bezüglich der Heizplatte hydraulisch verschiebbare Pressplatte als für das Verfahren wesentliche Elemente. Im weiteren enthält die Vorrichtung ein Hydraulikanlage, um die Pressplatte zu verschieben, eine Einrichtung zur Regelung der Wärme, des Druckes und der Zeit, und ein Gehäuse, in dem diese Elemente angeordnet sind.The method described above is carried out on a system which comprises a laser color copying machine and a transmission device. The laser copier is known per se and is therefore not described. The transmission device forms the new core and contains a heating plate and a pressing plate that can be moved hydraulically with respect to the heating plate as essential elements for the method. In addition, the device contains a hydraulic system for displacing the press plate, a device for regulating the heat, pressure and time, and a housing in which these elements are arranged.

Die Heiz- und Pressplatte sind rechteckförmig und planparallel zueinander.The heating and pressing plate are rectangular and parallel to each other.

Beispiel 2Example 2

Ein auf einem Papierbogen vorhandener Schriftzug soll auf einen Hartkarton übertragen und mit einer Auflage versehen werden. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel werden die gleichen Schritte 1 und 2, wie im Beispiel 1 beschrieben, ausgeführt. In einem dritten Schritt wird der schriftzugbildende Toner mit einer Prägefolie abgedeckt und beide werden einer Erwärmung und einem Druck ausgesetzt, derart, dass der schriftzugbildende Toner erweicht und als Kleber wirkt. Nach dem Erkalten wird die Prägefolie abgezogen. Es ergibt sich ein Schriftzug z.B. mit Goldbelag.An existing lettering on a sheet of paper should be transferred to a hard cardboard and provided with a pad. In this embodiment, the same steps 1 and 2 as described in Example 1 are carried out. In a third step, the lettering-forming toner is covered with an embossing film and both are subjected to heating and pressure in such a way that the lettering-forming toner softens and acts as an adhesive. After cooling, the stamping foil is removed. The result is a lettering e.g. with gold coating.
