JPH11247065A - Dyeing of dust-control mat having ombre dyed part - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a process for the dyeing of a personal mat holding the name of shop, or the like, in a state to form an ombre dyed part at small quantities and low cost. SOLUTION: An ombre dyed part is formed by spreading a dye on the surface of a raw fabric for each color or density and brushing the boundary of the colors with a brush having relatively long bristles while the dye is held in the fiber in undried state, thereby mixing the dyes of both sides of the boundary. The brush to be used in brushing has relatively long bristles. The spreading of the dye on the raw fabric for each color or density is carried out by using a stencil formed for each color.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of dyeing a raw material of a fibrous dust control mat, and more particularly to a method of dyeing a dust control mat having a shade-dyed portion, which is suitable for multi-product small-lot production.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A fibrous dust control mat is
It is widely used as a shoe wipe mat at store entrances, hotel lobby entrances, etc. These mats include, for example, "Welcome," etc.
What displays the user's store name or the like is delighted as a personal mat, and it is often desired to display a unique pattern or pattern unique to the user. However, when displaying the same pattern in large quantities, it is only necessary to show the pattern by dyeing the raw material from the beginning, but when displaying the store name etc., a dust control mat showing the same pattern is excluded except for chain stores etc. It is not used in large quantities.

[0003] In order to manufacture a small amount of a personal mat displaying such various patterns, conventionally, a method of expressing a pattern by implanting fibers of different colors, and a method of printing a dye through a pattern representing a pattern. For example, a method of cutting and pasting a plurality of raw materials having different colors is used.
However, in the case of a pattern containing a blurred part of the color, it is impossible to cut and paste the loss reduction, and in the case of flocking, prepare various kinds of fibers with slightly different colors, and sequentially change the fibers with slightly different colors. Must be planted, which is practically impossible in terms of labor and cost. The method of printing a dye through a mold follows the principle of mesh printing, and it is possible to realize a blur by using a mold whose mesh size changes gradually. However, realization is difficult unless the cost of fabricating a mesh mold is high and mats representing the same pattern are used in large quantities.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a low-cost dyeing method suitable for small-scale production of many kinds of dust control mats having the above-mentioned dyeing part.

[0005]

According to the method of dyeing a dust control mat of the present invention, in particular, a method of dyeing a dust control mat having a faint dyed portion, a dye mixed in a paste by a mold is squeegeeed for each color or density. On the other hand, while the dye is stretched out and the dye is kept undried in the fiber, the border of each color is brushed with a relatively long bristle brush to mix the dyes on both sides of the border, It is characterized by forming.

[0006]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A method for dyeing a dust control mat having a dyed part according to the present invention is carried out as follows. First, a mold is manufactured for each color by a conventional method according to a predetermined design. This mold is placed on the raised material, and the dye mixed in the paste for each color or density is stretched while being pressed against the material surface with a squeegee. After squeezing of the required number of colors is completed, while the dye is kept in the undried state in the brushed fibers, the boundary of each color is separated by a brush having relatively long bristle, etc. Brushing. By this brushing, the dyes on both sides of the boundary are mixed, and the dyes on both sides of the boundary mixed by the long bristles penetrate to the roots of the hairs of the mat, thereby forming neutral shades on both sides.

[0007]

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to embodiments. According to the order form, the designated design and characters are input to a personal computer or the like as a graphic by an appropriate method such as a scanner. After deciding the design on the display, the output produces a mold for each color. A white raw cloth is adhered to a synthetic rubber base, and the raw cloth whose hairs are also pressed is most easily brushed with a metal brush. Brushing can be performed not only by such a mechanical method but also by washing the raw material. However, since the mat adhered to the base is heavy, it is convenient to use mechanical brushing. The previously prepared mold is placed on the brushed material, and the dye is stretched while being pressed against the surface of the material with a squeegee for each color or concentration mixed in the glue. After finishing the necessary number of colors of squeezing, while the dye is held in the undried state in the brushed fiber,
Mix the dyes on both sides of the color by brushing the border of each color with a bristle brush or a brush with relatively long and hard bristles made of resin fiber in a direction perpendicular to the border of the dyeing area or in a circle. Then, a shading portion is formed. This brushing mixes the dyes on both sides of the border and produces the effect that the dyes on both sides of the border mixed by the long bristles penetrate and dye the root of the mat hair, forming a neutral shade on both sides. . In order to keep the mixing ratio of the dyes on both sides of the boundary constant, it is preferable that the brush itself does not hold the dyes as much as possible. This is because if the brush itself holds the dye, there is a risk of bringing in the dye at another location into the brushing portion, changing the mixing ratio, and causing color unevenness. Mat at 100 ℃ 2
Steam for at least 0 minutes. The steamed mat is washed with water, and the remaining dye and glue are washed off. To increase the fastness of dyeing, immerse it in a water tank containing a fix (dye fixing agent). This is dehydrated and dried to complete the dyeing. Among the above steps, the steps after squeezing are the same as the conventionally known methods. Also,
In this embodiment, the white substrate is dyed after being adhered to the synthetic rubber table. However, it is needless to say that the white substrate may be first dyed only in the state of the substrate and then adhered to the rubber table.

[0008]

According to the dyeing method of the present invention, as described above, the dye is squeezed in the area for each color or each density and mixed and dyed by brushing in an undried state, so that the dye in the brushing area can be easily prepared. It is mixed and dyed evenly with the brush to the root of the fiber. The method of forming the blurred portion can be easily performed without using a special device, so that it is possible to meet the demand for low-volume production at low cost.
