Problems solved by technology

[0005] On shoe soles, as with other types of items that have primarily functional rather than aesthetic uses, traditional image imprinting techniques - direct printing, or other application of printed sheets - do not provide satisfactory quality results because The use of soles or other items results in gradual abrasion and wear of the surface, making the imprinted image susceptible to fading over time
[0006] Furthermore, similar to other articles with a mainly mechanical use, shoe soles have practical requirements which cannot be fully met if the image printed on the sole is realized by means of conventional techniques

Abstract

An element displayed with an image made of a rubber-type material comprising portions (2, 3) of different colors arranged on at least one surface (4). Portions (2, 3) of different colors are arranged on said surface (4) to define at least one predetermined image (5) by color contrast.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an element made of rubber-type material displaying an image and a method for realizing the element. In more detail, the invention relates to an element of rubber-type material of substantially thin-layer construction, intended for various uses, on which one or more images are imprinted, and a method of realizing the element. Background technique [0002] Commonly used articles are known on the market, which are made of rubber-type material and on which images such as photographs, pictures or icons are printed. Some of these items consist, for example, of rugs and mats to be placed on the floor or small mouse pads for computers. Other articles of these types consist of sheets or panels used as decorative parts, ie components of furniture items, seats, etc. [0003] The image on the rubber item can be printed eg using conventional printing methods, or can be printed on a sheet made of other material such as plastic material whi...
