  • Patent number: 7833453
    Abstract: Process for producing an injected article to which a flocked decoration is applied that includes the production of a flocked substrate (11) based on a temporary substrate (1) covered by a temporary adhesive (2) that keeps the flock fibers (3) in place, positioning of the flocked substrate in an injection mold of the article to be produced, injection of a polymer (12) being melted in the closed mold through an injection opening (4), removal of the injected article from the mold and the peeling off of the temporary substrate (1) and the temporary adhesive (2) from the injected article, characterized in that the flocked substrate (11) is positioned in the mold so that the flock fibers (3) are oriented toward the interior of the mold.

  • Patent number: 7666231
    Abstract: In this process of continuous manufacture of a flocked and dyed cloth backing (S) comprising successive stages of application (1) of a polymerizable resin (RP) layer to at least one surface of the cloth backing, projection (2) of white or unbleached polyester flock fibers (FF) onto said resin layer, polymerization (3) of the resin to fix the flock fibers on the cloth backing, deposition (4) of at least one sublimable dye (E) on the flocked surface of the cloth backing and sublimation (4) of the deposited dye to dye the flocked fibers, for the stage of projection (2), polyester super microfibers are used with a titer of less than 0.5 Dtex and a length of between 0.2 and 0.5 mm.

  • Publication number: 20080302772
    Abstract: Process for laser-cutting a complex for its application as decoration on a textile material, includes the following stages: a) installation under the complex of a first temporary substrate (1), b) installation of the second temporary self-adhesive substrate (6) on the intermediate layer (5), c) removal of the first temporary substrate (1) and the iron-on film (2) with the exception of its parts that reproduce the pattern that is to be applied, d) laser-cutting the complex over the entire thickness of the iron-on film (2) along cutting lines that reproduce the contours of the pattern that is to be applied, e) eliminating by laser engraving the part of the intermediate layer (5) and/or the iron-on film (2) that is located inside the closed cutting lines and that is not part of the pattern to be applied.

  • Publication number: 20030161983
    Abstract: A decorative article (10) that may be applied to the skin, having a support (11) having a first face (12) flock coated, and a second face (14), opposite to the first, coated with an adhesive layer (15). One face of the adhesive layer, facing away from the support, may be put in contact with the skin. Support (11) is permeable to the glue used for the flock coating of the first face (12).

  • Patent number: 6249297
    Abstract: Process for continuously printing a plastic film includes the steps of applying to the back of the plastic film a temporary anti-sticking support, heating the assembly of the plastic film and the temporary support to a temperature such that the plastic film reaches its softening point to stick temporarily to the temporary sport, transferring by sublimation a design constituted by a sublimable ink pre-printed on a printing paper, by contact under predetermined temperature and pressure with the front of the plastic film therm-stuck to the temporary support, and cooling the assembly of the thus-printed plastic film and of the temporary support to a temperature permitting unsticking the temporary support.

  • Patent number: 6224707
    Abstract: The method consists in applying a thermoadhesive or HF-weldable film (2) on a temporary protection paper (1), applying an adhesive layer 2a) on said film, flocking fibers (F) on this adhesive layer, preparing a pre-printed paper with multicolor designs constituted by sublimable dyes and transferring by sublimation the multicolor-designs from the pre-printed paper onto the flock-fibers by close contact between the two elements under a predetermined pressure and temperature.
