Abstract
The present invention relates to an apparatus and to a method for the preparation of mosaic floor decorations. More particularly, the present invention relates to an apparatus and to a method for the preparation of mosaic floor decorations which conveniently and uniformly arrange the dispersed chips in order to achieve an aesthetically pleasing design. The method comprises harmonizing chip pieces having various colors and shapes by uniformly arranging the chips by dispersing them upon a substrate by using a sliding-table having many different incline angles.
Claims10
A process for the preparation of a mosaic floor, which comprises:
- coating a substrate with base sol,
- dispersing and uniformly arranging chips upon the substrate by supplying the chips through a sliding-table having a plurality of slopes having many different incline angles and which is operatively associated with a fixed-arrangement plate at an end of the sliding-table,
- heating the arranged chips, and
- applying an effective amount of pressure to the chips for fusing the chips.
An apparatus for the preparation of a mosaic floor decoration, comprising:
- a sliding-table having a plurality of slopes having different incline angles, wherein the mean of the incline angles to a horizontal plane of a slope in the sliding-table is 5.degree. -20.degree. and wherein differing incline angles in the slope are continuously joined to form an inclined shape,
- a fixed-arrangement plate operatively associated with an end of the sliding-table, and
- means for vibrating the sliding table.
An apparatus for the preparation of a mosaic floor decoration, comprising:
- a sliding-table having a plurality of slopes having different incline angles, wherein the mean of the incline angles to a horizontal plane of a slope in the sliding-table is 5.degree.-20.degree., differing incline angles in the slopes are continuously joined to form an inclined shape, and the incline angles of the plurality of slopes alternate such that a first alternating slope has a relatively larger angle than a second alternating slope,
- a fixed-arrangement plate operatively associated with an end of the sliding-table, wherein the coefficient of friction of the fixed arrangement plate is larger than that of the sliding-table, and
- means for vibrating the sliding table.
