Abstract:
A self-inking stamp is configured such that, in a marking preparation state, a marking member is maintained in a state in which it is oriented upwardly within a stamp body of the self-inking stamp and pressed against an ink pad to supply ink thereto, and, during a marking operation, after the inner frame is moved downwardly while being reversingly rotated and oriented downwardly, the downwardly-oriented marking member is exposed from the stamp body and enabled to make a mark. The self-inking stamp is also configured to lock the marking member in a state in which it is exposed from the stamp body, for replacement and cleaning of the marking member.
Abstract:
A host computer, a plurality of thermal carving machines, and a user terminal. are connected to a network. The host computer includes seal image creation means that permits edition of a seal image using the user terminal, site selection means that allows a user to specify one site from a site candidates list, ID issuing means that issues an order ID for identifying the contents of an order, and order information registration means that registers the issued order ID and order information in a database. A control device of the thermal carving machine includes order acceptance means that accepts an order ID input when information on the input order ID is registered in the database, and carving control means that performs seal caning of a stamp based on seal image data associated with the order ID.
Abstract:
A seal carving apparatus includes a thermal head having a plurality of heat generating elements disposed in lines, and thermal drive control means that performs a control process of selectively and thermally driving the individual heat generating elements while moving the thermal head and a porous material in relative to each other with the thermal head being in abutment with the porous material, thereby forming a seal face on the porous material. The thermal drive control means controls a pulse time width for thermally driving the individual heat generating elements of the thermal head under PWM control based on gradation image data having a gradation value, thereby forming a seal with a gradation on the porous material.
Abstract:
A porous stamp material allows only resin in a region thereof irradiated with a laser beam during laser engraving in a production process of an ink stamp to be burnt and vaporized while preventing melting in any other unwanted region. The porous material for ink stamps comprises: at least one thermoplastic resin selected from the group consisting of low-density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene, high-density polyethylene, ethylene-alpha-olefin copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, and ethylene-acrylic copolymer; at least one thermoplastic elastomer selected from a plurality of different hydrogenated styrene based thermoplastic elastomers; and at least one filler selected from a plurality of different inorganic compounds, wherein the thermoplastic resin and/or the thermoplastic elastomer are cross-linked, and formed in a continuous pore structure.

Abstract:
A reverse type stamp includes an outer cylindrical body, an inner cylindrical body which is movable relative to the outer cylindrical body, an elastic member that constantly urges the inner cylindrical body in a protruding direction inside the outer cylindrical body, an inversion body which is reversed and returned in synchronization with the relative movement, and a print body which is joined to the inversion body. When the outer cylindrical body is pressed down while the inner cylindrical body stands on a paper surface, the inversion body is reversed inside the inner cylindrical body for an imprinting operation. An ink pad is provided inside a movable container inside a cartridge. The movable container is elastically supported inside the cartridge by a coil spring provided at a rear surface thereof. Since contact between the ink pad and the print body is buffered, the sagging of the ink pad can be prevented.
