Embodiment Construction

[0029] The present invention relates to an adhesive printed transfer badge with text, numbers, logos and other indicia for uniform and other industries, and methods for efficiently mass producing the transfer badge using digital printing, etching and / or cutting techniques novel approach. Emblems include a colorful printed design look with or without simulated and / or textured embroidery threads and can be heat sealed to a garment or garment accessory. In all cases, badges are well suited for application to any fabric or leather substrate, including coarser non-woven fabrics such as felt and wool ("non-woven" here is defined as produced by processes other than weaving) any fabric base layer). Suitability for a particular fabric depends on the particular heat-sealable thermoplastic film used, and as described below, different films may be used for different fabrics.

Abstract

A process for applying digitally printed applique indicia which results in decorative and identification elements for decoration and identification when applied to uniforms, fashion, ''basic'' and performance apparel, swimwear and intimate apparel as well as other textile products, the elements being an alternative to direct embroidery, embroidered emblems, thermo-transfer films, silk screen or sublimated printing. The production process includes the following phases (Figs. 3A-C): a design phase (1); a separation phase (2); a printing phase (3); an optional traditional embroidery phase (4); and an etching / cutting phase (5). The process can incorporate embroidered elements but has the benefit of reducing or eliminating portions of stitching and or extra applique layers in the emblem. The resulting product has superior care and durability characteristics to screen printing and heat transfers as the image is more wash fast and can be ironed. The heat or pressure transfer capability can allow much faster customization of finished garments.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to transfer badges containing finely cut and digitally printed detailed designs such as embossed text, logo graphics, numbers or other indicia and which simulate the appearance of fine embroidery for use directly on garments, garments and accessories Adhesive applications such as heat-activated or pressure-sensitive adhesives for marking, embellishing, branding or otherwise embellishing the end product thereby eliminating the need for embroidery, heat transfer film, screen or sublimation printing needs. Background technique [0002] Manufacturers of fashion, "basic" and performance apparel, uniforms, swimwear, intimate wear, outerwear and accessories use a variety of methods to apply decoration and logos to clothing and textiles. They tend to use screen masking, mask printing, heat transfer films, sonic welding and direct embroidery as the primary methods for decoration and identification. [0003] Screen masking of logo...
