  • Patent number: 11866285
    Abstract: Provided is a coating film transfer tool having a pivotable transfer head and a tape guide for transfer tape, and capable of satisfactorily transferring a coating film. In some examples, such a coating film transfer tool includes tape guides respectively having lower sides disposed on a first side of a main body where the transfer tape passes before coating film transfer, and upper sides disposed on a second side of the main body where the transfer tape passes after coating film transfer passes. An interval between the upper sides is wider than an interval at a position where an interval between the lower sides is narrowest.

  • Patent number: 11261050
    Abstract: A coating film transfer tool in which a rotational torque with the least variability may be generated without being affected by a surface state of a resilient body may include: a paying-out core having a coating film transfer tape wound thereon; and a rewinding core that rewinds the coating film transfer tape after use. The paying-out core and the rewinding core are interlocked via a power transmission mechanism in a case. The transmission mechanism generates a rotational torque by a frictional force on a sliding surface between components, by using a restoring force of a resilient body. The resilient body is configured to rotate integrally with a component A that comes into contact with one end of the resilient body and a component B that comes into contact with the other end.

  • Patent number: 10981746
    Abstract: A coating film transfer tool may include a casing that houses a feeding reel around which a transferable tape is wound and a winding reel; and a transfer head having a main body portion arranged in a front side which is one side of a front-rear direction of the casing to extend in a left-right direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction in a front end portion and provided with a pressing edge portion adapted for transferring the coating film to a transfer target surface. The casing or a base member housed in the casing may have a protruding tip that extends to the transfer head side and is connected to the transfer head. The protruding tip may press a part of an area including a center of the left-right direction of the main body portion to the transfer target surface side in the event of a transfer.

  • Patent number: 10696871
    Abstract: A pressure-sensitive adhesive transfer tape that may have on one surface of a release substrate made of paper or a plastic film, a pressure-sensitive transfer layer having an adhesion inhibiting layer and an adhesive layer, wherein the adhesion inhibiting layer and the adhesive layer are successively stacked on one another. The adhesion inhibiting layer may prevent the adhesive layer formed on one adherend from being in contact with another adherend to weaken the adhesion between the one and another adherends, enabling the one and another adherends to be easily separated from each other. With the passage of time after being put on one another, the adhesion inhibiting layer may migrate to another adherend, so that the adherend is in contact with the adhesive layer, exhibiting strong adhesion properties between the adherends.

  • Patent number: 10494218
    Abstract: A coating film transfer tool may include a supply reel, a transfer tape, a transfer head, a winding reel, and a power transmitting mechanism. The tool may include a base member having the transfer head and a rotation restraining portion capable of directly restraining rotation of the supply reel. The base member may be rotatably supported between the transfer head and the rotation restraining portion by a base member supporting shaft. The tool may include a resilient restoring mechanism interposed between the base member and the housing. The base member may rotate and restraint of rotation of the supply reel is released when the transfer head is pressed against a transferred surface, and the base member is restored to an original position by the resilient restoring mechanism to restrain rotation of the supply reel when pressing of the transfer head is released.

  • Patent number: 9969590
    Abstract: A horizontal-pull coating film transferring tool may include a supply reel, a transfer head, a take-up reel, and a power transmitting mechanism. The tool may also include a base member, wherein a transfer head is attached and a rotation locking member having a supply reel engaging pawl able to lock rotation of the supply reel is disposed. The base member may be supported so as to be able to rotate. Through an elastic return mechanism, a rotational lock of the supply reel is released through rotation of the base member when the transfer head is pressed and the rotation of the supply reel is locked through the base member returning to an original position. A rotation supporting shaft for the supply reel and the take-up reel is disposed so as to be substantially perpendicular to the direction of a pressing edge portion on the front end in the transfer head.

  • Patent number: 8276640
    Abstract: Provided is a cartridge type coating film transfer tool, in which a cartridge can be simply dismounted and is readily exchanged. A case body comprises a slide member on an upper wall of an upper case. A tapered portion provided on the slide member is extended downward beyond a lower cartridge case of a tape cartridge in a height direction. When the slide member is slid toward a leading end side, a trailing end of the tape cartridge is lifted up until it abuts against a step portion in a state of riding over a tapered portion of the slide member. Thereby, it is possible to release engagement between engagement pawls and engagement holes, which are used in mounting the case body and the tape cartridge to each other.
