DESCRIPCIÓNDESCRIPTION
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se refiere a la impresión en alta definición de imágenes sobre papel, a la posterior transferencia de dichas imágenes a una nueva superficie y, en el caso de que dicha nueva superficie sea de tela o de otro material flexible, a la posible fijación posterior de dicha tela o material flexible a una tercera superficie. La imagen reproducida, una vez sobre la superficie portadora, cumple con las mayores exigencias en cuanto a la calidad de definición y adherencia.The present invention relates to high definition printing of images on paper, to the subsequent transfer of said images to a new surface and, in the case that said new surface is made of fabric or other flexible material, to the possible fixing back of said fabric or flexible material to a third surface. The reproduced image, once on the carrier surface, meets the highest demands in terms of definition and adhesion quality.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Existe una afición en determinados grupos de población que consiste en adornar sus prendas de vestir, o carpetas, o álbumes, etc., con imágenes captadas desde calcomanías que se ofrecen en el mercado.There is a hobby in certain population groups that consists of decorating their clothing, or folders, or albums, etc., with images captured from stickers offered in the market.
Las imágenes que las calcomanías actuales proporcionan cuando se aplican en el hogar adolecen, una vez trasladadas a según qué soporte final, como por ejemplo tela, de una serie de inconvenientes. En el caso concreto de imágenes trasladadas a soportes de tela, como por ejemplo camisetas, los principales inconvenientes de las calcomanías actuales son, o bien la falta de nitidez en la imagen transferida, o bien el de cuarteamiento o rotura del material transferido, o bien la presencia de relieves excesivos en las imágenes transferidas, o bien la intolerancia al calor de la plancha, o bien una combinación de los citados. La razón común tras todos estos inconvenientes suele ser la dificultad de que el material transferido quede debida y eficazmente adherido a la tela o a la capa de material químico que se interpone entre imagen y tela. DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNThe images that current decals provide when they are applied at home suffer, once transferred to what final support, such as cloth, a series of inconveniences. In the specific case of images transferred to cloth supports, such as t-shirts, the main drawbacks of the current stickers are either the lack of sharpness in the transferred image, or the cracking or breaking of the transferred material, or the presence of excessive reliefs in the transferred images, or the intolerance to the heat of the plate, or a combination of those mentioned. The common reason behind all these inconveniences is usually the difficulty of the transferred material being properly and effectively adhered to the fabric or the layer of chemical material that interposes between image and fabric. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Para solventar estos problemas se ha ideado un método de transferencia y aplicación de imágenes según el que, por sus características de fabricación y de posterior transferencia de dichas imágenes, éstas quedan debida y eficazmente adheridas a la superficie finalmente portadora, sea ésta de tela, cuero, plástico, madera, metal, vidrio, cerámica, u otra de las habituales, con lo que desaparecen los inconvenientes arriba citados y la calidad de la imagen transferida cumple con las mayores exigencias en cuanto a nitidez, portabilidad, definición, y adherencia. Además, el método de fabricación proporciona un parche adhesivo de tan fácil aplicación, que tal proceso de aplicación puede ser realizado en el hogar por cualquier persona no avezada previamente. Tal aplicación se efectúa preferentemente colocando el parche sobre la superficie escogida, por ejemplo una camiseta, y planchando dicho parche. El parche queda eficazmente adherido a la superficie como si se tratara de una impresión directa.To solve these problems, a method of transfer and application of images has been devised according to which, due to their manufacturing characteristics and subsequent transfer of said images, they are duly and effectively adhered to the finally carrier surface, be it fabric, leather , plastic, wood, metal, glass, ceramics, or other of the usual, which disappears the above-mentioned drawbacks and the quality of the transferred image meets the highest demands in terms of sharpness, portability, definition, and adhesion. In addition, the manufacturing method provides an adhesive patch of such an easy application that such an application process can be carried out at home by any person not previously experienced. Such application is preferably carried out by placing the patch on the chosen surface, for example a t-shirt, and ironing said patch. The patch is effectively adhered to the surface as if it were a direct impression.
El método de fabricación y aplicación del parche que se reivindica consiste, en grandes líneas a detallar más adelante, en una primera impresión de la imagen sobre un papel repeledor, llamado papel transfer. La cara impresa del papel transfer se coloca sobre una superficie de tela. Mediante la acción de altas temperatura y presión el papel transfer repele la imagen, la que queda adherida sobre la tela. La otra cara de esta tela está recubierta por un adhesivo. La tela se recorta, o no se recorta, siguiendo la silueta de la imagen soportada. Esa figura se pega finalmente sobre la superficie definitivamente portadora.The method of manufacturing and applying the patch claimed is, in large lines to be detailed below, in a first impression of the image on a repellent paper, called transfer paper. The printed side of the transfer paper is placed on a cloth surface. Through the action of high temperature and pressure the transfer paper repels the image, which is adhered to the fabric. The other side of this fabric is covered by an adhesive. The fabric is trimmed, or not trimmed, following the silhouette of the supported image. That figure is finally stuck on the definitely carrier surface.
Ese papel llamado papel transfer presenta las propiedades de no quedar embebido por las tintas de impresión y de ser termorresistente. La cualidad de no absorber tintas de impresión se realza en las imprentas mediante la impresión previa de una primera capa de tinta incolora y transparente, llamada popularmente barniz, y las imágenes se imprimen sobre dicho barniz. Este tipo de papel es habitual en el mercado especializado y su composición no es objeto de reivindicación en esta memoria.That paper called transfer paper has the properties of not being embedded by printing inks and of being heat resistant. The quality of not absorbing printing inks is enhanced in printing presses by previously printing a first layer of colorless and transparent ink, popularly called varnish, and the images are printed on said varnish. This type of paper is common in the specialized market and its composition is not claimed in this report.
REALIZACIONES PREFERENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN El papel llamado transfer puede imprimirse por el método llamado de cuatricromía, tanto en offset como por serigrafía o tampografía, utilizando para ello los cuatro clichés propios del método, los que pueden ser obtenidos por cualquiera de los medios habituales, como por ejemplo los informáticos o la fotografía, con o sin retoques manuales. También puede imprimirse el papel transfer color a color, por métodos como el llamado de colores planos o de colores directos. También puede imprimirse por el método llamado de tricromía, utilizando los tres clichés correspondientes a este caso.PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION Paper called transfer can be printed by the so-called four-color method, both offset and by screen printing or pad printing, using the four clichés of the method, which can be obtained by any of the usual means, such as for example, computer science or photography, with or without manual touch-ups. You can also print the transfer paper color by color, by methods such as so-called flat colors or direct colors. It can also be printed by the method called trichromia, using the three clichés corresponding to this case.
Con fines técnicos según la naturaleza del papel o de las tintas a transferir, este papel transfer será previamente impreso con una capa de barniz, sobre la que se realizarán las impresiones citadas, que entonces serán más fácilmente transferidas en el paso siguiente.For technical purposes depending on the nature of the paper or the inks to be transferred, this transfer paper will be previously printed with a layer of varnish, on which the aforementioned prints will be made, which will then be more easily transferred in the next step.
Las tintas utilizadas para la impresión pueden ser cualesquiera de las que ofrece el mercado para aquellos fines en los que se pretende la posterior transferencia de la imagen, incluyendo tintas especiales como las holográficas, o las metalizadas, o las llamadas lacas. La composición de estas tintas no es objeto de reivindicación en esta memoria. Caso de imprimir con tintas especiales, tipo holográficas, metalizadas, sublimables, o lacas, la impresión se realizará según los condicionamientos propios de tales tintas, lo que no será en sí una limitación al presente objeto de invención pues carece de influencia en el mismo.The inks used for printing can be any of those offered by the market for those purposes in which the subsequent transfer of the image is intended, including special inks such as holographic, or metallic, or so-called lacquers. The composition of these inks is not subject to claim herein. In the case of printing with special inks, holographic, metallized, sublimable, or lacquered inks, the printing will be carried out according to the specific conditions of such inks, which will not in itself be a limitation to the present object of the invention since it lacks influence on it.
Una vez está la impresión de la imagen debidamente acabada, se imprime sobre toda ella una capa de una sustancia a la que también se le podría llamar sustentante. El resultado tras esta operación es que la imagen anteriormente impresa está adherida por una cara al papel transfer, y por la otra cara al sustentante citado últimamente. En condiciones de calor y presión contra otra superficie, por ejemplo la de una tela, la imagen pierde su adherencia al papel transfer pero continúa adherida al sustentante. Este sustentante se pega a la tela. Al retirar la temperatura, la presión y el papel transfer, la imagen ha pasado a estar sobre la susodicha superficie. En realidad la sustancia anclada a la nueva superficie es el sustentante, el que a su vez hace de sustento o soporte de la imagen.Once the print of the image is properly finished, a layer of a substance that could also be called supporting is printed on it. The result after this operation is that the previously printed image is adhered on one side to the transfer paper, and on the other side to the supporter mentioned above. In conditions of heat and pressure Against another surface, for example that of a fabric, the image loses its adherence to the transfer paper but remains attached to the support. This bra sticks to the fabric. When the temperature, pressure and transfer paper have been removed, the image has become on the surface. Actually the substance anchored to the new surface is the sustainer, which in turn acts as a support or support for the image.
Cuando se prevé que la imagen va a ser transferida a telas de poliéster o de otras fibras artificiales adecuadas, la impresión de la imagen puede hacerse convenientemente con tintas de las llamadas sublimables. En tal caso no será necesaria la impresión subsiguiente del sustentante. Estas tintas tienen la propiedad de desprenderse bien del papel transfer con el calor a la vez que se adhieren por sí mismas a las fibras artificiales citadas, con lo que el soporte de sustentante no es necesario.When it is anticipated that the image will be transferred to polyester or other suitable artificial fiber fabrics, printing of the image can be conveniently done with sublimable so-called inks. In this case, the subsequent impression of the supporter will not be necessary. These inks have the property of releasing the transfer paper well with heat while adhering themselves to the aforementioned artificial fibers, so the support of the support is not necessary.
La sustancia aquí llamada sustentante y que será el soporte de la imagen sobre la nueva superficie puede ser una resina natural o artificial, como por ejemplo la obtenida a base de un telómero de cloruro de vinilo que acaba de polimerizar durante el proceso de transferencia de la imagen. Esta sustancia puede ser opaca o transparente, coloreada o incolora.The substance here called sustaining and that will be the support of the image on the new surface can be a natural or artificial resin, such as that obtained from a vinyl chloride telomere that has just polymerized during the transfer process of the image. This substance can be opaque or transparent, colored or colorless.
Las prestaciones óptimas de esta sustancia llamada sustentante deben ser las de que una vez adherida a la tela ya no vuelva a reblandecerse ni deformarse ante el calor, y que además sea elástica ante tracciones u otras fuerzas mecánicas, de manera que cesada la fuerza recupere su forma inicial, y que además quede fuertemente anclada a la superficie de la tela. Una sustancia que ofrece estas prestaciones es, por ejemplo, la comercializada durante 1994 en España bajo la denominación comercial de DURACAL TRANSFER, cuya composición es mantenida en secreto por el fabricante, quien a su vez es una empresa filial de la empresa francesa conocida popularmente como TOTAL OIL.The optimum performance of this substance called sustaining must be those that once adhered to the fabric will no longer soften or deform before the heat, and that it is also elastic against traction or other mechanical forces, so that the force ceases to recover its initial form, and also be strongly anchored to the surface of the fabric. A substance that offers these benefits is, for example, that sold during 1994 in Spain under the trade name of DURACAL TRANSFER, whose composition is kept secret by the manufacturer, who in turn is a subsidiary of the French company popularly known as TOTAL OIL.
La hoja de papel transfer así impresa se aplica por su cara impresa sobre una superficie escogida, que puede ser de plástico, rígido o flexible, de tela, tejida o sin tejer, de cuero, de madera, de metal, de cerámica, de vidrio, o de imitaciones de estos materiales.The sheet of transfer paper thus printed is applied on its printed side on a chosen surface, which can be made of plastic, rigid or flexible, of fabric, woven or non-woven, leather, wood, metal, ceramic, glass, or imitations of these materials.
Una vez juntas ambas superficies se somete el conjunto a temperatura y presión altas, con lo que la imagen anteriormente impresa sobre el papel queda sobre la nueva superficie.Once both surfaces are joined, the assembly is subjected to high temperature and pressure, so that the image previously printed on the paper is on the new surface.
En el caso de que la nueva superficie se pueda recortar, como es el caso de tela o de otro material flexible, el método consta de la opción de recortar dicha superficie según la silueta de la imagen transferida. Esta operación puede tener consecuencias especialmente útiles cuando lo que se pretende es crear un parche o pegatina para adherirlo, con fines de adorno o de colección, a prendas de vestir o a álbumes, o a carpetas, o a objetos similares.In the event that the new surface can be trimmed, as is the case with fabric or other flexible material, the method consists of the option of trimming said surface according to the silhouette of the transferred image. This operation can have especially useful consequences when what is intended is to create a patch or sticker to adhere it, for adornment or collection purposes, to clothing or albums, or to folders, or similar objects.
En el caso preferente de que la nueva superficie sea de tela, la cara de ésta opuesta a la de recepción de la imagen estará recubierta por un pegamento, que puede ser autoadhesivo o termoadhesivo, como por ejemplo el acetato de etilvinilo o EVA.In the preferred case that the new surface is made of cloth, the face of the latter opposite the one of image reception will be covered by a glue, which can be self-adhesive or thermoadhesive, such as for example ethylvinyl acetate or EVA.
Este último caso proporciona una aplicación adhesiva de las que popularmente se llaman parche o pegatinas, y que puede ser utilizada con fines industriales para la ornamentación de superficies, o con fines particulares para lo mismo o para el coleccionismo.The latter case provides an adhesive application of what are popularly called patch or stickers, and that can be used for industrial purposes for surface ornamentation, or for particular purposes for the same or for collecting.
El pegamento que recubre la tela por la cara opuesta a la de recepción de la imagen puede ser homogéneo, en cuyo caso toda la capa de tal pegamento consiste en la misma materia química, como es el caso de que sea de tan solo EVA. Pero la tela también puede estar recubierta por franjas alternas con dos pegamentos distintos, uno de ellos autoadhesivo que permitirá la fijación de la pegatina a carpetas de colegio, o a álbumes, o a objetos similares, y el otro pegamento de naturaleza termoadhesiva que permitirá la fijación de la pegatina a prendas de vestir.The glue that covers the fabric on the opposite side of the image reception can be homogeneous, in which case the entire layer of such glue consists of the same chemical material, as is the case with only EVA. But the fabric can also be covered by alternate strips with two different glues, one of them self-adhesive that will allow the sticker to be attached to school folders, or to albums, or similar objects, and the other glue of a thermo-adhesive nature that will allow the fixing of The sticker to clothing.
No se considera necesario hacer más extensa está descripción para que cualquier experto en la materia comprenda el alcance de la invención y las ventajas que de la misma se derivan.It is not considered necessary to make this description more extensive so that any person skilled in the art understands the scope of the invention and the advantages that derive from it.
Los términos en que se ha redactado está memoria deberán ser tomados siempre en sentido amplio y no limitativo.The terms in which this report has been written must always be taken in a broad and non-limiting sense.
Los materiales, forma y disposición de los elementos serán susceptibles de variación siempre y cuando ello no suponga una alteración de las características esenciales del invento, que se reivindican a continuación. The materials, shape and arrangement of the elements will be subject to variation as long as this does not imply an alteration of the essential features of the invention, which are claimed below.
