Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for printing textile labels. Such method is known from practice.
  • a mirror image of a desired print is printed on paper by means of transfer ink.
  • this paper is pressed with the print against a surface to be printed and heated in such a manner that the transfer ink is absorbed in the synthetic fibers of the surface to be printed. After cooling, the ink is retained in the synthetic fibers. This enables a thus printed product to be for instance laundered industrially and dry-cleaned.
  • This known method has as a drawback that a relatively large number of processing steps are necessary to obtain the desired result. Consequently, this known method is laborious and relatively costly in use. Moreover, a mirror print has the drawback that it is difficult to check by a user. After all, in particular text will become difficult to read.
  • a further drawback of this known method is that the printed product and the paper must be heated together, preferably through the paper. As a result, heating should take place for a relatively long period, which may have disadvantageous effects in particular for synthetic fibers in the surface to the printed, while moreover, a flow of the ink may occur, which may cause the print on the printed product to become slightly blurred.
  • a method is known from practice for printing textile labels, wherein, via for instance screen-printing techniques, an image is provided on the top side of a textile label by means of paint.
  • the paint substantially remains lying as a film on the textile label and is hence relatively susceptible to damage, in particular during for instance industrial laundering and dry-cleaning, but also during normal use.
  • a separate screen should be manufactured for each printing, which is a time- consuming and costly affair, while, as a consequence, users themselves cannot use this method individually without making costly investments therefor in, for instance, equipment, and trainings.
  • a further limitation of this known method is that relatively viscous types of paint must be used in order to obtain sufficiently sharp prints, which decreases the freedom of design for the user considerably.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method of the type mentioned in the opening paragraph, in which the drawbacks mentioned are avoided and the advantages thereof are retained. To that end, a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 1.
  • a printing can be provided directly, i.e. without the interposition of a mirror print functioning as stencil, on a textile label by means of the subliming or transfer ink.
  • textile that comprises, in addition to the conventional synthetic fibers, ink-sorbing means, the ink is retained by the textile label, before as well as after the heating of the textile label for sorption of the ink in the synthetic fibers.
  • the term 'textile' should at least be understood to include material which is at least partly manufactured from for instance synthetic fibers and/or natural fibers through for instance weaving, knitting, crocheting or the like.
  • the term 'textile label ' should at least be understood to include a piece of textile that can for instance be used for marking, repairing or decorating a product, in particular a textile product such as clothing and the like, or for informative purposes.
  • a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 2.
  • the ink-sorbing means offer the advantage that at a relatively low temperature, the ink is already sufficiently retained by the textile label, so that afterwards only the textile label, in particular only the ink-carrying layer thereof, should be heated in order to cause the ink to be sorbed in the synthetic fibers in a suitable manner. After that, the synthetic fibers provide an adequate protection of the printing.
  • a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 3.
  • a textile label with at least a top layer that is composed of synthetic fibers and ink-absorbing fibers, preferably natural fibers, or that at least comprises such fibers, a textile label having a suitable, preferably regular distribution of the different materials can readily be obtained.
  • a great accuracy can be obtained in the printings to be provided, with a great sharpness.
  • a method is characterized by the features according to claim 5.
  • the textile label By providing the textile label with a top layer manufactured from synthetic fibers that are at least partly provided with for instance an ink-sorbing coating, the textile label can readily be manufactured and provided with the desired quantity of ink-sorbing means at the desired positions .
  • a method according to the invention is characterized by the features of claim 7.
  • a printer for printing the textile labels By using a printer for printing the textile labels, a user is offered the possibility of producing individually determined textile labels in a particularly simple manner, for instance on a computer screen. For that purpose, the user can use his own designs, as well as pre-inputted designs and combinations thereof. Printings can easily be adjusted in for instance position, format, number, color and the like, without a new printing stencil having to be manufactured therefor each time. Moreover, several textile labels cam readily be manufactured simultaneously. Precisely a method according to the invention involves the possibility of choosing from a large number of different printers, depending on the users' individual requirements and wishes.
  • a method according to the invention is further characterized by the features of claim 10.
  • a heat-sealable textile label offers the advantage that the textile label can readily be affixed in for instance a textile product.
  • the heat-sealable layer that is conventionally provided on the side in question is suitably protected against damaging and fouling.
  • the advantage is achieved that during the printing of the textile label and/or the possibly subsequent heating for causing the ink to transfer to the synthetic fibers, the heat-sealable layer is easily and suitably protected against undue heating. Indeed, this layer must not be heated in such manner until the textile label is to be secured in or on a suitable product through heat-sealing.
  • heat -sealing should at least be understood to mean heating a thermally bondable layer or like means in such a manner that the textile label is fixed on a product by these thermally bondable means, for instance through a thermal reaction between polymers and the product or through melting.
  • the backing on the backside of the textile label By affixing, by means of an adhesive layer, the backing on the backside of the textile label, preferably against the thermally bondable layer, in such a manner that the backing can simply be detached while the adhesive means retain their adhesive action at least until the heat-sealing, the advantage is achieved that the backing is readily maintained in the protective condition, while the textile label, after removal of the backing, can readily be affixed, temporarily and detachably, in or on a product, for instance for illustration, as a test or as presentation aid, while the adhesive means moreover provide, during heat-sealing, that the textile label remains in the desired position.
  • the invention further relates to an apparatus for use with a method according to the invention, which apparatus is characterized by the features of claim 12.
  • the invention moreover relates to an ink container for use in an apparatus according to the invention, characterized by the features of claim 13, and a textile label suitable for use with a method according to the invention.

  • Fig. 2 is a top plan view of a portion of a textile label according to the invention, in a first embodiment
  • Fig. 3A shows a cross section of a textile label taken on the line III-III in Fig. 2, with a printing applied thereto, before heating or transferring ink;
  • Fig. 3B shows a textile label taken on the line III-III in Fig. 2, after heating or transfer of the ink;

  • Fig. 1 schematically shows a textile label 1 included in a printing apparatus 2, comprising means for directly transferring ink onto the textile label 1, for instance a printer of the bubble jet, ink jet or laser type.
  • the printer 2 comprises a printer head 3 and one or preferably several ink containers 4, each filled with ink of the transfer or subliming type, preferably in different colors.
  • the printer 2 is controllable by means of a control device 5, shown in Fig. 1 in the form of a computer.
  • the textile label 1 is built up of a top layer 6, comprising at least synthetic fibers and ink-sorbing means. This top layer 6 will be further discussed hereinbelow.
  • a thermally bondable layer 7 that is preferably formed by a thermoplastic layer, for instance manufactured from polymers such as polyurethane , polyester urethane, polyether urethane or polyester.
  • this layer extends below the entire surface of the top layer 6 and is suitable for affixing a textile label 1 on, for instance, textile by means of heat-sealing, at heat treatment in which, through heating to for instance above 60°C, preferably above 90°C, and subsequent cooling, the thermally bondable layer 7 forms a chemical and/or mechanical bond with a bonding surface on which the textile label is printed.
  • the adhesive layer 8 comprises a pressure-sensitive adhesive and is adapted to at least adhere the label 1 to a bonding surface between 0°C and 60°C, to temporarily and detachably position the label 1 thereon and to retain the label on the bonding surface during a following heating of the label 1 for gluing it definitively onto the bonding surface by means of the thermally bondable layer 7.
  • This adhesive layer 8, too, extends at least along the edges of the label and preferably below the entire surface of the top layer 6. In practice, sealing temperatures of 200°C or more can be suitable.
  • the textile label is detachably connected to a backing 9, for instance manufactured from paper, synthetic material or textile.
  • a backing 9 for instance manufactured from paper, synthetic material or textile.
  • textile labels 1 can be provided on a backing 9 side by side, in such a manner that rows and/or columns of textile labels are obtained on one backing 9, while each row and/or column can comprise one or more textile labels 1 having identical or different shapes, dimensions and intended printings.
  • the backing 9 and a conveying device 10 shown schematically in Fig. 1 as two driving pressure rollers 11, the textile labels 1 can be fed through a printer 2 or a like printing apparatus.
  • a different type of printing apparatus for instance a plotter, with the ink head 3 moving relative to a textile label that is stationary or moves along therewith, for applying the printing.
  • a heating means 12 for heating at least the or each printed part of a textile label in such a manner that the printing is at least substantially dry when leaving the printer 2.
  • a further object of this heating device 12, which may for instance also be arranged in one of the or both pressure rollers 11, will be further explained hereinbelow.
  • thermally bondable means 7 and/or the adhesive layer 8 below the entire surface of the top layer 6 ensures that during the temporary (detachable) adhering and/or heat-sealing, an optimum bond can be obtained in a particularly simple, rapid and economical manner between the textile label and the product. This prevents displacements, deformation, wrinkle formation and damages of the textile label 1 prior to and during use.
  • textile labels of a different build-up for instance without thermally bondable means, without adhesive layer and/or without backing.
  • the top layer 6 is formed through weaving, knitting or a like technique, comprising alternating horizontal and vertical threads (warps and woofs) .

  • a second series of threads 14 is at least partly manufactured from a synthetic material to be further described hereinbelow.

  • ink 15 is provided onto the top layer 6 of the textile label 1 so that the ink 15 for instance forms an at least partly covering layer on at least the first threads 13 or is partly absorbed by these threads 13.
  • a transfer ink or subliming ink is used as ink 15, a transfer ink or subliming ink is used.
  • the synthetic material from which the second threads 14 are manufactured is of a type that slightly 'works' when the temperature increases to a temperature Tw near or above the transfer or sublimation temperature Ts of the ink 15 to be used, so that of the second threads 14 in question at least the outer layer 'opens' to allow the ink 15 to penetrate therein.
  • the ink 15 is transferred out of or from the first series of threads 13 to the second series of threads 14.
  • the outer layer of the second threads 14 closes again while enclosing the ink 15. This may moreover involve a chemical reaction which further secures the ink 15 in the second threads 14.
  • washing temperatures for textile will always be below the temperature Tw.
  • sealing temperatures are generally much higher, for instance about 200°C.
  • the working temperature is in each case higher than the washing temperature .
  • thermally bondable means 7 for instance polymers such as polyurethane, polyester urethane, polyether urethane, polyester and like plastics are suitable.
  • adhesive means 8 for instance pressure-sensitive types of adhesive such as acrylates can be considered.
  • the self-adhesive layer 8 or like means must not form a barrier to the thermally bondable means 7.
  • the adhesive means 8 should preferably be removed from the product on which the textile label is fixed during sealing and/or during subsequent cleanings, for instance through dissolving in washing water.
  • the thermally bondable means 7 and the adhesive means 8 can be provided side by side in thin stripes or small faces.
  • material for the backing 9 for instance paper or textile is particularly suitable.
  • the use of the backing 9 prevents the thermally bondable means 7 from becoming too warm during the increase of the temperature of the plastic threads 14, in particular if it has good thermal insulation or if it is capable of leading away heat rapidly. This is of great significance, because undue heating of the thermally bondable means 7 during and directly after printing would cause it to become unsuitable or at least much less suitable for the contiguous heat -sealing the textile label. Moreover, this would involve fouling of the printing apparatus 2.
  • this example should not be construed as being limitative.

  • first and second threads can be woven or otherwise joined together in various different: manners, depending on the desired distribution thereof
  • the structure of the synthetic second threads 14 opens, while the transfer ink 15 tends to move from the ink-sorbing threads 13 to at least the synthetic second threads 14 located next thereto.
  • the ink 15 can for instance sublime through heating and be absorbed by the opening synthetic threads 14. This situation is largely shown in Fig. 3B. After the synthetic threads 14 have cooled, they close again while enclosing the ink 15.
  • Fig. 4 shows a second embodiment of a top layer 26 for a textile label 21 according to the invention. Identical parts have reference numerals identical to Figs. 1 and 2 increased by twenty.
