Abstract
The article comprises a plurality of layers and is such as to adhere to a smooth high gloss surface, one layer being intended to adhere to said surface and being formed from a polished, highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride material. In particular, the article may comprise said one layer 2, a layer 3 of PVC, a layer 4 of rigid PVC, a layer 5 of PVC foam and a further layer 6 of PVC, the formed layer giving the article a padded appearance. The foam layer may alternatively be of polyether or polyurethane. The article may be of geometric shape or may have the shape of a letter or numeral, or of an easily recognisable object, for use as an alphabet or time-teaching aid. The articles may be used in conjunction with a printed substrate to make a farmyard, seaside, space or street scene or may be formed as musical notes for use with a high gloss surface printed with a stave. They may also be used as markers with a high gloss surface in the form of a height measuring chart. <IMAGE>
Description
SPECIFICATION
Multi-layer adhesive articles
This invention relates to a multi-layer adhesive article.
According to the present invention there is provided an article which comprises a plurality of layers and which is suitable to adhere to a smooth high gloss surface, wherein one layer is intended to adhere to said surface and is formed from a polished, highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride material.
The article in accordance with the present invention will be known by the applicants by the trade mark "CLINGBACK".
The highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride can be that which is commercially available, e.g.
that known as "Clearweystick" as supplied by
Display People, of Shepton Mallet, Somerset.
Preferably, one intermediate layer is formed of a foam material to give the article a padded appearance. The presently preferred foam material is a polyvinyl chloride foam material, but other foam materials such as polyether foam material or a polyurethane foam material may be used.
It is to be appreciated that the padding will give the article a more "three dimensional" appearance, as viewed from the front. The rearmost layer should be flat where the article is to adhere to a flat surface.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the article comprises five layers which are, sequentially:
(a) a layer of polished highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride material:
(b) a layer of a polyvinyl chloride material;
(c) a layer of a rigid polyvinyl chloride material;
(d) a layer of a polyvinyl chloride foam material; and
(e) a layer of polyvinyl chloride material.
The layers (a), (b) and (e) may be coloured.
Suitable dimensins, given merely by way of example, in this embodiment are as follows: (a) 0.2 mm (0.008 inch) (b) 0.2 mm (0.008 inch) (c) 0.375 mm (0.015 inch) (d) 2.5 mm (0.1 inch) (e) 0.2 mm (0.008 inch).
In another embodiment of the present invention, the layers (b) and (c) may be replaced by a single layer of rigid, polyvinyl chloride material.
Although the layer most remote from the highly plasticized polyvinyl chloride layer may be continuously coloured, it may alternatively be a clear layer with printing, in one or more different coloured inks, on the side of this remote layer whch faces an intermediate layer of the article.
Articles produced in accordance with the present invention may be in the shape of an alphanumeric character.
Alternatively, the article may be in the shape of an easily recognisable object which can be used as an alphabet teaching aid (for example, an apple-shaped article corresponding to the letter a, a bee-shaped article corresponding to the letter b, etc.).
In another alternative form the article may be a geometric shape, for example a circle, a rectangle, a triangle or any other curved or straight sided outline, which can be used to form pictures and patterns.
The article may, for example, resemble a road traffic sign, which can be used as a teaching aid (for example, for the road safety instruction of young children).
In another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a combination comprising one or more article in accordance with the first-mentioned aspect of the present invention, in association with a substrate having a smooth, high gloss surface. This surface must be substantially grease-free for the article to adhere satisfactorily to the surface.
Thus, printed representational shapes may be used in conjunction with a printed background board to make scenes, for example farmyard, seaside, space or street scenes.
Additionally, articles in the form of numerals may be used in association with a printed circular board, having a smooth high gloss surface, as a clock face, for a time-teaching aid.
In one embodiment of this aspect of the present invention the substrate with the high gloss surface is in the form of a childrens' height measuring chart, and the one or more article is chosen from a marker and a marker printed with an appropriate name.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the substrate with the high gloss surface may be printed with a music stave and the articles are in the shape of musical notes (for example crotchets or minims).
In a further aspect of the present invention, there is provided a process for producing an article in accordance with the first-mentioned aspect of the present invention, which process comprises passing a plurality of layers, from which the article is to be formed, between a pair of platens and, by a high frequency welding technique, pressing the desired shape of article from the plurality of layers.
For an article wherein the layer most remote from the highly plasticized layer is clear with printing on the side of the remote layer which faces an intermediate layer, the weld may surprisingly be made through the ink, thus not giving a wide border to the article.
Figure 1 in the accompanying drawings shows a cross-section through the middle region of an article, in the shape of a letter 1, in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
The article 1 comprises five layers 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 which correspond to the layers (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) respectively, given in the description.
