    摘要: In the particular embodiments of the invention described in the specification, the surface of a hot melt ink image in a projection transparency having curved surface portions is reoriented to provide an ink layer of substantially uniform thickness causing rectilinear transmission of light rays passing through the transparency and provide a clear, saturated projection image. Reorienting of the curved surface portion to provide a layer of uniform thickness is accomplished by burnishing, pressing with or without heating, rolling with or without heating, or heating the ink to a temperature above its melting point for a selected time such as 0.5 to 10 seconds. Preferably, the ink is cooled rapidly after remelting to reduce crystallization and frosting and thereby reduce light transmission losses in the ink.

    摘要: A method for preparing a transparency involves application of hot melt ink to a transparent substrate to form a three-dimensional pattern with subsequent heating of the hot melt image above its melting point to change the configuration of the upper surface. In the embodiment described in the specification, a hot melt ink image on a substrate is treated in a continuous manner by moving it along a platen having a heating zone to melt drops of hot melt ink and cause them to spread on the substrate. The platen has a flat central portion and curved portions at each end with curvatures sufficient to prevent formation of cockle. At the output end of the heating zone, the substrate is moved continuously into a quenching zone where a cooling platen cools the substrate by thermal contact at a rapid rate to prevent crystallization or frosting of the hot melt ink image. After the quenching zone, the substrate is moved along a surface having a reverse curvature with respect to the curved portions of the heating platen to eliminate residual curvature of the substrate resulting from the curved portions of the heating platen.

    摘要: In the embodiment described in the specification, a hot melt ink image on a substrate is treated in a continuous manner by moving it along a platen having a heating zone to melt drops of hot melt ink and cause them to spread on the substrate and decrease the angle of contact of the drops with the surface of the substrate. The platen has a flat central portion and curved portions at each end with curvatures sufficient to prevent formation of cockle. At the output end of the heating zone, the substrate is moved continuously into a quenching zone where a cooling platen cools the substrate by thermal contact at a rapid rate to prevent crystallization or frosting of the hot melt ink image.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for measuring the temperature in an oven includes a circuit and software algorithm that reads the voltage across a standard resistive temperature device (RTD) or thermistor to determine temperature measured by the device. Using an unregulated high voltage supply to increase the gain and resolution, it overcomes the problems of small changes in resistance with respect to temperature. An additional input to measure the unregulated supply voltage is used as a reference voltage input. The apparatus includes resistor dividers for both the temperature sensor and reference voltages, a microprocessor having analog inputs, and additional components for noise suppression and open sensor protection.
