Abstract: A watch band changing cradle for a smart watch eliminates the need to use a finger nail to press release buttons on the backside surface of a smart watch when changing or swapping watch bands using slide-in band attachment fittings. The cradle is configured so that the smart watch nests and naturally aligns itself in the cradle so that release protrusions in the cradle can be used reliably to depress the release buttons on the backside of the smart watch. The cradle can be adapted to hold a disc-shaped induction charging pad which is magnetically attracted to the smart watch. The cradle can make the smart watch easier to stow when charging, and the magnetic attraction helps to align and hold the smart watch in the cradle.

Abstract: A method of screen printing raised three-dimensional images, for example, corporate logos, on printable textile and/or non-textile substrates involves the use of a stencil attached to the print side of the print screen. The stencil is made from a pre-fabricated, photosensitive thick film having a precision controlled thickness. The print screen is coated with a photosensitive emulsion, and the combination of the print screen and the attached photosensitive stencil blank are exposed to UV light from metal halide lamps to harden the non-exposed emulsion and stencil material. The screen and stencil are thereafter washed to remove the non-hardened emulsion and stencil material, thereby creating openings in the screen coating and stencil material to form a three-dimensional image volume. Pigmented paste is screen printed through the one or more image openings in the coated screen and the associated one or more image volumes in the stencil to form a three-dimensional image on the substrate.
