Description

Mark and its manufacturing method

Technical field

The present invention relates to a stamp of a badge, a badge, a medal, and the like, and more particularly to a stamp, a badge, a medal, and the like formed by directly printing a pattern on a metal substrate, and a method of fabricating the same. Background technique

Referring to Figure 1, the existing badge 9 includes a film 91, a sheet of paper 92, a cover 93, a base 94 and a pin 95. One side of the paper sheet 92 is printed with a pattern, and the film 91 covers the printed side of the paper sheet 92 and is coated on the outer surface of the cover 93 together with the paper sheet 92 to expose the pattern, and the film 91 and the paper The periphery of the sheet 92 is folded inside the cover 93, and the base 94 is tightly embedded in the cover 93 to tightly clamp the film 91 and the periphery of the paper 92 between the cover 93 and the base 94, and to make the glue The film 91 and the paper sheet 92 can cover the cover 93 in a flat manner.

Since the film 91 and the periphery of the paper sheet 92 are folded into the cover 93, wrinkles 96 (see FIG. 2) are easily generated at the edges of the cover 93 to affect the appearance of the product, so that it is difficult to manufacture, and assembly is also performed. When the cover 93 and the base 94 are used, the peripheral edge of the cover 93 must be punched by a machine so that the circumference of the cover 93 can be tightly pressed against the circumference of the base 94, so that the existing badge 9 has a circular shape. Conducive to production, there are no other outlines of the badge on the market, making the existing badge shape monotonous and unchanged.

In addition, in order to express the precious texture, the existing badges are mostly colored with gold or silver. The method is to first mold the metal substrate and then plate the metal substrate with gold or silver. It can be polygonal, but the plating solution used in the electroplating process is not friendly to the environment, does not meet environmental requirements, and must be colored by hand to increase the color other than gold or silver, making the process more complicated.

In summary, the existing badges such as badges or badges have their own manufacturing processes. Disadvantages, and the existing shape of the badge is too monotonous to increase the variety of goods, so it can not provide consumers with more selectivity. Summary of the invention

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a stamp of a badge or badge or medallion that can have a variety of shapes and have a colored metallic print pattern.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of manufacturing a stamp of a badge or a badge or a medallion which is easy and environmentally friendly.

The invention includes a metal base having a front surface and a back surface and having a pattern printed on at least the front surface, and an attachment unit disposed on the back surface of the metal base and attachable to an object.

The manufacturing method of the marking of the invention comprises the following steps:

a) providing a metal substrate having a front surface and a back surface; b) printing a pattern on the front surface of the metal substrate by metal printing, or printing a pattern on the front and back surfaces of the metal substrate;

c) processing the metal substrate to form a predetermined shape; and

d) The label is prepared by attaching an attachment unit attachable to an object at the back surface of the formed metal substrate.

The invention has the beneficial effects that: printing a pattern directly on the metal substrate by metal printing, and then molding the metal substrate, not only simplifies the production process, but also the process is friendly to the environment, and can be made into various contour shapes, thereby increasing Product diversity.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

The label referred to in the present invention includes, but is not limited to, a badge or a badge or a medal, such as a brand name, a medal at the time of election, various labels used by military and police, various stamps of schools or student associations, government and civil society. The various stamps of the organization are included.

Referring to Figures 3, 4 and 5, a first preferred embodiment of the present invention is suitable for use as a badge. The stamp 1 includes a metal base 2 and an attachment unit 3. The metal base 2 has a front surface 21 and a back surface 22, and the front surface 21 is printed with a pattern. The pattern referred to in the present invention may include graphics, characters, colors, patterns, etc., for decorating the surface of the metal base 2, and may be on the front side. Patterns are printed on 21 and back 22, respectively. The periphery of the metal base 2 is bent slightly toward the back surface 22 to form a surrounding wall 23, and defines a receiving recess 24.

The attachment unit 3 includes a pin 31 and a fixing member 32. The fixing member 32 is formed of a plastic material, and its outer contour is matched with the outer contour of the metal base 2, and the edge is slightly bent toward the metal base 2, and can be embedded in the receiving recess 24 of the metal base 2. And the edge of the metal substrate 2 is folded to form a flange 25 to fasten the fixing member 32 (see FIG. 6), that is, the metal base 2 and the fixing member 32 can be tightly fixed. The fixing member 32 is integrally formed with a holding portion 321 for pivotally holding the pin 31 on the fixing member 32, and the pin 31 is assembled with the metal base 2 by the fixing member 32. Use the pin 31 to hang the label 1 on a fabric (not shown), which can be clothes, hats, backpacks and other fabrics.

At the time of production, a predetermined pattern is printed on the surface of a metal substrate, and the front surface 21 and the back surface 22 or only the front surface 21 can be printed. The metal substrate on which the pattern is printed is formed by press molding, for example, by stamping, to form the metal base 2. On the other hand, the fixing member 32 is formed into a shape corresponding to the metal base 2 by means of plastic molding. The holding portion 321 is integrally formed, and the pin 31 is assembled to the holding portion 321 to form the attaching unit 3. Finally, the surrounding wall 23 of the metal base 2 is fastened to the outer periphery of the fixing member 32, and the metal base 2 and the fixing member 32 are tightly fixed to obtain a mark lo which can be used as a badge.

Referring to Figure 7, a second preferred embodiment of the present invention is suitable for use as a badge. The label 4 of the second preferred embodiment is substantially the same as the first preferred embodiment, except that the attachment unit 6 includes a staple 61 fixed to the metal base 5, and a detachable portion A clip 62 assembled with the staple 61. The staples 61 and the clips 62 can be used to hang the label 4 on a fabric (not shown). Since the combination of the staples 61 and the clips 62 is a common item, the detailed construction thereof is no longer Detailed.

The metal base of the present invention can also be formed into a circular, square or other polygonal contour shape, and is not limited to the embodiment, and the attachment unit can also be a magnetic component, such as a magnet, to enable the label of the present invention to be adsorbed. Metal furniture or office supplies such as refrigerators, desk screens, etc.

Since the stamp of the present invention directly forms a pattern on a metal substrate by printing, and then processes the metal substrate to form an appearance shape to form a metal pedestal, compared with the prior art, the pattern can be omitted before being printed. After the paper sheet, the step of wrapping the paper sheet and the film together on the cover can simplify the process steps and increase the production speed. Moreover, the metal substrate is easy to process, and a plurality of different contour shapes can be formed without being limited to a circular shape, which not only increases the variety of products, but also has the disadvantage that the edges of the paper sheets are liable to wrinkle. Moreover, the production process does not require the use of a chemical process, and there is no problem of plating liquid contamination, which is more in line with environmental protection requirements. Therefore, the stamp of the present invention has the advantages of simple production, diverse patterns, and environmentally friendly processes.
