  • Patent number: 8795789
    Abstract: A coating agent (60) comprising an ultraviolet ray hardening resin composite (62) to be applied on a water pressure transfer film (20) contains no organic solvent, but contains at least photo-polymerization pre-polymer, photo-polymerization monomer and photo-polymerization initiator and having a viscosity of 10 to 100 CPS (25° C.) and an ink solubility of 10 or more at an SP value. This can positively and effectively perform the operation of recovering the adhesion of the dried print pattern of the water pressure transfer film and also imparting the ultraviolet ray hardenability to the print pattern.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8178187
    Abstract: A decorative layer is formed by applying an ultraviolet ray hardening resin composite on a print pattern of a transfer film and transferring the print pattern on a surface of an article under water pressure in the state where the print pattern is activated by the ultraviolet ray hardening resin composite to recover the adhesion thereof, but the ultraviolet ray hardening resin composite is wholly united with the print pattern and hardened by an ultraviolet ray and the decorative layer has a glossy variation and/or touch feeling in accordance with a combination of the ultraviolet ray hardening resin composite united and hardened with the print pattern and a composition of the print pattern.

  • Patent number: 7951255
    Abstract: In order to impart, concurrently with the transfer of a decorative layer, a surface protection function able to mechanically and chemically protect the decorative layer to be hydraulic-transferred of an article, a solventless type ultraviolet-curing resin composition is applied onto the dried printed pattern of a transfer film, an article is pushed into water along with the transfer film, with the printed pattern activated by a non-solvent activating component in the ultraviolet (uv)-curing resin composition and its adhesion force reproduced, and a ultraviolet ray is applied to the article to which the printed pattern, now impregnated and completely integrated with the uv-curing resin composition, has been transferred to thereby cure the uv-curing resin composition.

  • Publication number: 20030211300
    Abstract: A workpiece to which a transfer pattern is to be applied is formed to have a rod-like element curved into a loop-like shape to form an apparent geometric plane. A transfer film used in the liquid pressure transfer is formed on a required portion thereof, and the transfer pattern for decoration is formed to have a configuration corresponding to that of the apparent plane. The workpiece is handled so as to downwardly approach the transfer film from a position corresponding to the transfer pattern, and is then immersed in the transfer liquid. Consequently, the transfer film bonds to the rod-like element of the workpiece so as to circumferentially surround the rod-like element continuously from a bottom of the rod-like element to a top thereof on the basis of a diametric section of the rod-like element. Thus, the transfer pattern is transferred to at least the rod-like element of the workpiece.

  • Patent number: 6497779
    Abstract: A transfer film (1) having a print pattern is floated on a liquid surface (12A) within a transfer bath and a transfer objective body (2) is immersed into a liquid (12) within the transfer bath together with the transfer film (1) whereby the print pattern on the transfer film (1) is transferred onto the surface of the transfer objective body (2) using a liquid pressure. The surface portion of the transfer objective body (2) on which the print pattern should be transferred is immersed under the liquid surface (12A) while the surface portion of the transfer objective body follows the transfer film (1) so as to be developed thereon in a plane manner by rolling the surface portion of the transfer objective body (2) on the transfer film (1).
