  The present invention provides a transfer core in which a transfer ribbon provided with a transfer coating film is wound around a transfer tool case, and a transfer ribbon fed from the supply core is pressed against a transfer surface from the back side of the substrate. The present invention also relates to a coating film transfer tool comprising: a transfer head that transfers the transfer coating film to a transfer surface; and a winding core that is drawn from the feeding core and winds up the substrate that has passed through the tip of the transfer head.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a coating film transfer tool that can suppress the occurrence of uneven transfer on the transfer surface of a transferred coating film due to shaking of a finger during transfer is known. For example, it is described in Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3017252 and Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-236081.
The coating film transfer tool described in the practical registration No. 3017252 connects the feeding core and the winding core with a belt and is provided in parallel along the transfer tool case body so as to rotate in the same direction. The transfer ribbon is composed of a take-up core that is wound from a feeding core at the rear of the transfer tool case body through a transfer head protruding from the tip of the transfer tool case body. Further, the take-up core is fixed with a reversing prevention mechanism and a rotatable roller at a corner of the side in contact with the transfer head, and an appropriate angle is maintained by two points of the transfer head tip and the roller. The transfer coating film can be attached with an appropriate pressing force.

  In addition, a coating film transfer tool described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-236081 has a feeding core around which a transfer ribbon is wound, and a transfer ribbon fed from the feeding core is pressed against a transfer surface such as paper from the back side of the tape. Thus, the transfer head is composed of a transfer head for transferring the transfer coating film onto the transfer surface and a winding core for winding up the used transfer ribbon. Further, a rotating body that rotates in contact with the surface to be transferred during coating film transfer is provided between the feeding core and the transfer head, and the transfer head and the rotating body are provided in a transfer tool case. The seesaw is fixed to be swingable through the swinging connecting means.

Utility registration No. 3017252. Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 10-236081.

However, in any of the conventional techniques, the roller and the rotating body are fixed to the case, which is inconvenient.
For example, when the transfer coating tool is stored in a brush case or the like, there are cases where the fixed roller or rotating body is in the way, and the roller or rotating body is moved to make it easier to store.
In addition, depending on the position of the fixed roller and the rotating body with respect to the case, there is a concern that dust adheres to the roller and the rotating body when not in use or breaks when accidentally dropped.
Furthermore, for users who use the case in a relatively upright state in order to improve the visibility of the transfer portion, the function of the folding roller and the rotating body cannot be obtained, which may be disgusting.

  The present invention provides a transfer core in which a transfer ribbon provided with a transfer coating film is wound around a transfer tool case, and a transfer ribbon fed from the supply core is pressed against a transfer surface from the back side of the substrate. A transfer head for transferring the transfer coating film onto the transfer surface, a take-up core that is drawn out from the feeding core and winds the substrate that passes through the tip of the transfer head, and a rotation that can contact the transfer surface. The gist of the present invention is to provide a body and attach the rotating body to the transfer tool case so as to be movable.

The present invention provides a transfer core in which a transfer ribbon provided with a transfer coating film is wound around a transfer tool case, and a transfer ribbon fed from the supply core is pressed against a transfer surface from the back side of the substrate. A transfer head for transferring the transfer coating film onto the transfer surface, a take-up core that is drawn out from the feeding core and winds the substrate that passes through the tip of the transfer head, and a rotation that can contact the transfer surface. Since the body is provided and the rotating body is movably attached to the transfer tool case, an easy-to-use coating film transfer tool can be provided.
According to the second aspect of the present invention, since the rotating body can be accommodated, the rotating body is prevented from being soiled when not in use, and can be prevented from being damaged due to dropping or the like.
Moreover, in Claim 3, since the inclination angle with respect to the to-be-transferred surface of a coating-film transfer tool can be adjusted, visibility can be improved or stable operation can be obtained.

Example 1
The configuration of the coating film transfer tool of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. A projecting rotating shaft 7a is erected substantially at the center in the transfer tool case 7, and the feeding core 4 is supported by the rotating shaft 7a. Slits 5 are formed radially on the side surface of the feeding core 4, and the transfer ribbon 2 is wound around the feeding core 4.
Further, a winding core 3 smaller in diameter than the feeding core 4 is attached to the front of the feeding core 4 so as to be rotatable with respect to the transfer tool case 7. An engaging portion 3 a that can be engaged with and disengaged from the inside of the case 7 is formed. Further, a transfer head 1 is provided in front of the winding core 3. The front portion of the transfer head 1 is in a state protruding from the opening 7 b of the transfer tool case 7, but the rear portion is fixed in the transfer case 7. The transfer head 1 is made of a material that can be elastically deformed.
The transfer ribbon 2 is fed from the feeding core 4 and is wound by the winding core 3 through the transfer head 1.

On the side surface of the transfer tool case 7, a rotation shaft 50 is erected substantially in the vicinity of the center, and the end of the arm portion 6 is rotatably supported on the rotation shaft 50. Therefore, the arm portion 6 can rotate around the rotation shaft 50. And the rotating body 8 is attached to the edge part on the opposite side engaged with the said rotating shaft 50 of the arm part 6 so that rotation is possible. The length of the arm 6 is about ½ of that of the transfer tool case 7, and the thickness of the rotating body 8 is set larger than the thickness of the transfer tool case 7. Moreover, although the said rotary body 8 is comprised from the resin molded product, you may coat | cover the soft elastic body which consists of rubber materials etc. around the resin molded product.
Further, a plurality of convex portions 11 for fixing the arm portion 6 in a stepped manner are formed on the side surface of the transfer tool case 7 (11a to 11e). The fixing action can be canceled using the action. The arm portion 6 is fitted and fixed between the adjacent convex portions 11. Note that if the thickness of the arm portion 6 is lower than the height of the convex portion 11, it is difficult to disengage but the fixing force is strong. Conversely, if the thickness of the arm portion 6 is higher than the height of the convex portion 11, It can be easily removed.
A storage portion 9 is formed at the lower rear end of the transfer tool case 7 so that the rotating body 8 can be stored. A storage lid 10 is attached to the lower end portion of the storage section 9 so as to be freely opened and closed, and the storage lid 10 further improves the effect of preventing damage to the rotating body 8 and damage from external impacts. However, this is not always necessary.

The above configuration is a basic configuration, which will be described more specifically. The transfer tool case 7 is a resin molded product such as acrylonitrile / styrene copolymer resin, acrylonitrile / buditaene / styrene copolymer, reinforced polyethylene terephthalate, polycarbonate resin, polystyrene, or methacrylic resin. Moreover, as thickness of the transfer tool case 7, the range of 0.5 mm-2.0 mm is preferable. Incidentally, if it exceeds 2.0 mm, it becomes difficult to cool the molded product after molding, and if the thickness is less than 0.5 mm, there is a risk that the strength is impaired.
The transfer ribbon 2 includes a transfer coating film having adhesive properties such as a character correction coating film, a decorative coloring coating film, an adhesive pressure-sensitive adhesive film, and a fluorescent coating film on the surface of a synthetic resin transfer tape as a base material. ing.
The transfer ribbon 2 is wound around the feeding core 4 and the transfer ribbon 2 fed from the feeding core 4 is pressed against the transfer surface 12 such as paper from the back side of the transfer tape by the transfer head 1. The transfer coating film is transferred to the transfer surface 12. A used transfer ribbon 2 (transfer tape as a base material) after passing through the transfer head 1 is wound up by a winding core 3. The transfer head 1 is preferably made of a material such as polyacetal resin, polypropylene resin, metal (stainless steel, brass, piano wire, etc.) in consideration of slidability, durability, and flexibility.
As the material of the feeding core 4 and the winding core 3, if they are connected by a gear mechanism to transmit rotation, sliding and durable polyacetal resin, polypropylene resin, polybutylene terephthalate, acrylonitrile, It is preferable to use a resin material such as a styrene copolymer resin, an acrylonitrile / budataene / styrene copolymer, a reinforced polyethylene terephthalate, a polycarbonate resin, a polystyrene, or a methacrylic resin.

A rotating body 8 is rotatably attached to the transfer tool case 7 via an arm portion 6. That is, when the coating film transfer tool of the present invention is used, the tip end portion 1b of the transfer head 1 and the two points of the rotating body 8 are in contact with the transfer surface 12. Thereby, shaking of a finger can be suppressed and a stable transfer operation can be performed. Further, a storage portion 9 for storing the rotating body 8 and a storage lid 10 are disposed at the lower rear of the transfer tool case 7, and the rotating body 8 is damaged when the coating film transfer tool is accidentally dropped. And dirt are prevented.
A regulating member 1 a that regulates the movement of the transfer ribbon 2 in the width direction is formed on the side of the transfer head 1. As a specific shape, it is substantially triangular in a side view and is integrally formed with the transfer head 1.
The feeding core 4 has slits 5 formed radially. This is a window hole for confirming the remaining amount of the transfer ribbon 2 by the coating film transfer operation. The feeding core 4 and the winding core 3 are connected to each other by gears, but may be connected by an elastically deformable belt. In this example, the feeding core 4 and the winding core 3 have an engaging portion 3a that can be engaged with and disengaged from a convex portion (not shown in FIG. 1 because it is hidden) provided on the inner wall of the transfer tool case 7. It is formed and each direction of rotation is only one direction. That is, reverse rotation is prevented by a so-called ratchet mechanism. Further, even when the winding diameter of the transfer ribbon 2 with respect to the feeding core 4 is larger than that of the winding core 3, the ribbon winding speed by the winding core 3 is set higher than the ribbon drawing speed from the feeding core 4. Thus, the used transfer ribbon 2 can be reliably wound around the winding core 3. One configuration is that the outer diameter of the gear of the feeding core 4 is larger than the winding diameter of the transfer ribbon 2 around the feeding core 4. When an excessive tension is applied to the transfer ribbon 2 due to a difference in speed between the transfer ribbon 2 feeding speed and the transfer ribbon 2 (transfer tape) winding speed, the feeding core 4 and the transfer ribbon 2 are transferred. When the winding core 7c with respect to the feeding core 4 slips, the power transmission action between the gears is released, and the difference between the feeding speed and the winding speed of the transfer ribbon is intermittently absorbed.

  As described above, the rotating body 8 is connected to the arm portion 6, and the other end portion of the arm portion 6 is connected to the transfer tool case 7. The connecting portion is connected to the feeding core 4. It is located in the middle part of the winding core 3. The connecting portion is a rotating shaft 50 integrally formed with the transfer tool case 7, but the rotating shaft 50 may be formed on the arm portion 6. The arm portion 6 rotates about the rotation shaft 50, and the rotating body 8 connected to the other end portion of the arm portion 6 also swings and moves as the arm portion 6 rotates. In the swing operation, the arm portion 6 is fitted and fixed between a plurality of adjacent convex portions 11 provided outside the transfer tool case 7. That is, by changing the fixing position of the arm portion 6, the rotating body 8 can be moved from the front of the lower part of the transfer tool case 7 to the rear. As a result, at the time of use, the tip of the transfer head 1 and the rotating body 8 are in contact with the transfer surface 12 at two points. As a result, shaking of the fingers is suppressed and a stable transfer operation is obtained. It becomes like this. Further, depending on the position of the rotating body 8, for example, when the arm portion 6 is fixed between 11d and 11e and is positioned at the lower rear of the transfer tool case 7, the coating film transfer tool main body in use Can be moved closer to the inclined surface, which greatly improves the stability of the transfer (see FIG. 4). On the other hand, when the arm portion 6 is fixed between 11a and 11b and is positioned in front of the lower portion of the transfer tool case 7, the rear end portion of the coating film transfer tool main body and the transfer surface 12 are transferred. The distance can be set longer, which improves the visibility of the transfer portion (see FIG. 5).

(Example 2)
The structure of the coating film transfer tool of 2nd Embodiment is demonstrated based on drawing of FIG. Since the internal structure of the second embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, a description thereof will be omitted. The characteristic point of this example is the configuration outside the transfer tool case 18. An arc-shaped long hole 14a is formed in the vicinity of the upper edge of the transfer case 18, and a groove 14 is further formed in the long hole 14a toward the edge. Further, one end of the arm portion 16 is pivotally supported in the long hole 14a, and a rotating body 17 is pivotally supported on the other end portion of the arm portion 16 in a freely rotatable manner. A connecting member 15 is connected to the end of the arm portion 16. The long holes 14 a and the groove portions 14 are formed on both side surfaces of the transfer tool case 18, and the arm portion 16 and the rotating body 17 are also located outside the transfer tool case 18. A convex portion 15a is formed on the inner side of the connecting portion between the connecting member 15 and the arm portion 16, and the convex portion 15a can freely move in the elongated hole 14a and the groove portion 14. The total height of the arm portion 16 and the rotating body 17 is set lower than the maximum height of the transfer tool case 18. When the connecting member 15 is moved to the end of the groove portion 14, the rotating body 17 is prevented from protruding from the lower end surface of the transfer tool case 18. The connecting member 15 connecting the rotating body 17 and the arm portion 16 can be fixed to each of the four groove portions 14 formed in the arc-shaped long hole 14a, and the connecting portion 15 is positioned in the long hole 14a. By doing so, the above-mentioned fixation can be released.

The above configuration is a basic configuration, which will be described more specifically. Grooves 14 are provided on both outer side surfaces of the transfer tool case 18, and the arm part 16 can be moved by pivotally supporting the convex part 15a of the connecting member 15 in the groove part 14, and the rotating body 17 is moved in a sliding manner. It is possible. The rotating body 17 is disposed outside the transfer tool case 18 as described above. Therefore, by moving only the connecting member 15 located at the upper part of the transfer tool case 18, the rotating body 17 moves below the bottom of the transfer tool case 18 (see FIG. 7). Further, since the connecting member 15 is exposed from the upper part of the transfer tool case 18, the connecting member 15 can be operated and moved with only one hand without using both hands, and the rotating body 17 can be taken in and out. . Therefore, the operability is very easy.
There are four places where the rotating body 17 is fixed in this embodiment. It is fixed by engaging the convex portion 15a of the connecting member 15 with any one of the four groove portions 14. For example, when the connecting member 15 is fixed to three groove portions 14 close to the transfer head 13 among the four portions of the groove portion 14, the transfer head 13 and the rotating body 17 are in contact with the surface to be transferred at two points. Thus, a stable transfer operation can be obtained. Further, when the connecting member 15 is fixed to the groove portion 14 farthest from the transfer head 1, damage to the rotating body 18 when not in use is prevented. In use, even if a strong pressing force (transfer force) is applied to perform the transfer operation, the convex portion 15a of the connecting member 15 is in a direction to bite into the groove portion 14, and the convex portion 15a is detached from the groove portion 14, Since it is prevented from entering the arc-shaped long hole 14a, the rotating body 17 is not separated from the transfer surface as a result.

In addition, a long hole 52 is formed in the arm portion 22, and the fixed convex portion 25 is fitted in the long hole 52. That is, the arm portion 22 can be slid relative to the fixed convex portion 25 and can be fixed by engaging the fixed convex portion 25 with the concave and convex portions 22a formed in the elongated hole 52. It has become. That is, when the rotating body 26 attached to the arm portion 22 is fixed, the fixing convex member 25 formed integrally with the transfer tool case 24 is engaged with the concave and convex portions 22a of the elongated hole 52 and fixed. Reference numeral 27 denotes a storage port through which the rotating body 26 and the arm portion 22 appear and disappear from the transfer case 24. The storage port 27 is formed at the lower front end of the transfer tool case 24.

  The length of the arm portion 22 is ½ or less of the transfer tool case 24 and is accommodated together with the rotating body 26 in the transfer tool case 24. A slide button 29 having a horizontally long shape is disposed outside the transfer tool case 24 and at a position corresponding to the arm portion 22. The slide button 29 is connected and attached to the arm portion 22, and the arm portion 22 and the rotating body 26 can be operated by operating the slide button 29. That is, the slide button 29 can adjust the length of appearance of the rotating body 26 from the transfer tool case 24.

The above configuration is a basic configuration, which will be described more specifically. Inside the transfer tool case 24, a feeding core 23, a transfer head 20, a winding core 21, a transfer ribbon 28, a fixed convex member 25, an arm portion 22, and a rotating body 26 are arranged.

A rotating body 26 attached to the arm portion 22 can move inside and outside the transfer tool case 24 from a storage port 27. The arm portion 22 is formed with a long hole 52 in which concave and convex portions 22a are formed for fixing the rotating body 26 at a specific position when in use. When fixing the arm portion 22, that is, the rotating body 26, the concave and convex portions 22 a of the arm portion 22 are engaged with the fixed convex member 25 configured integrally with the transfer tool case 24. The protruding length of the rotating body 26 from the storage port 27 is adjusted according to the engaging position. Further, similarly to the second embodiment, the slide button 29 can be moved with only one hand, and the protruding length of the rotating body 26 can be easily adjusted. Furthermore, by storing the rotating body 26 in the transfer tool case 24, the transfer tool case 24 can be stored regardless of the shape. At the time of use (transfer operation), the coating film transfer tool is in the form (non-contained state) as shown in FIG.

Example 4
The structure of the coating film transfer tool of 4th Embodiment is demonstrated based on drawing of FIGS. As in the first embodiment, the fourth embodiment is omitted because the feeding and winding mechanisms of the transfer ribbon 33 are the same, but the arrangement and the moving method of the rotating body 39 are different. A protruding rotating shaft 35a is erected on the rear upper part in the transfer tool case 35, and a feeding core 34 is supported on the rotating shaft 35a. A take-up core 32 is disposed in front of the feeding core 34. The take-up core 32 is disposed forward of the center of the transfer tool case 35 and rotatably with respect to the transfer case 35. Has been. A transfer head 31 is arranged in front of the winding core 32.
From the center to the lower end of the transfer tool case 35, a plate 55 having a thickness substantially the same as that of the rotating body 39 is disposed so as to be pasted together.
The arm rotation shaft 41 is disposed in the vicinity of the transfer head 31 of the transfer tool case 35 and obliquely below, and is connected to the plate 55. The arm rotation shaft 41 is also connected to a short arm portion 53 in addition to the plate 55, and a rotating body 39 and a long arm portion 54 are connected to the other end portion of the short arm portion 53.
