Abstract
A plate carrier (1) for a self-inking stamp (5) and a method for producing a plate carrier (1) having an adhesive surface (9) for attaching a text plate (14) to a printing side (2) of the plate carrier (1), the plate carrier (1) having, on the printing side (2), a grid pattern (13) aligned in relation to the edges (3, 6, 7) of the plate carrier (1) for aligning the text plate (14) when attaching it to the plate carrier (1).
Claims8
A plate carrier for a self-inking stamp, the plate carrier comprising:
- an adhesive surface for attaching a text plate to a printing side of the plate carrier;
- a grid pattern provided on the printing side and aligned in relation to edges of the plate carrier for aligning the text plate when attaching the text plate to the plate carrier;
- and
- an orientation element provided on the printing side and aligned in relation to the edges of the plate carrier for indicating a preferred direction of orientation of the text plate with respect to the plate carrier,
- wherein the adhesive surface is formed by a transparent double-sided adhesive film covering the grid pattern.
A method for producing a plate carrier having an adhesive surface for attaching a text plate to a printing side of the plate carrier, the method comprising:
- printing, laser marking, engraving or shaping a grid pattern on the printing side of the plate carrier and in alignment with edges of the plate carrier, said grid pattern dividing the adhesive surface into a series of contiguous cells;
- and
- before printing, laser marking, engraving or shaping the grid pattern on the printing side of the plate carrier, connecting a double-sided adhesive film with the printing side of the plate carrier.
A method for producing a self-inking stamp having an actuating member displaceable relative to a housing and mounted over the housing, the method comprising:
- producing a plate carrier having an adhesive surface for attaching a text plate to a printing side of the plate carrier by printing, laser marking, engraving or shaping a grid pattern on the printing side of the plate carrier and in alignment with edges of the plate carrier, said grid pattern dividing the adhesive surface into a series of contiguous cells;
- and thereafter
- coupling the plate carrier with the actuating member.
A plate carrier for a self-inking stamp, the plate carrier comprising:
- an adhesive surface for attaching a text plate to a printing side of the plate carrier;
- a grid pattern provided on the printing side and aligned in relation to edges of the plate carrier for aligning the text plate when attaching the text plate to the plate carrier;
- and
- an orientation element provided on the printing side separate from the grid pattern and aligned in relation to the edges of the plate carrier and comprising at least one of a directional arrow and a lettering for indicating a preferred orientation of the text plate with respect to the plate carrier,
- wherein the adhesive surface is formed by a transparent double-sided adhesive film covering the grid pattern.
