Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of badge technology, and in particular to a metal badge with an improved structure. Background Technology

[0002] Tin badges, also known as swivel badges, are often used to display anime characters and are a very popular type of anime merchandise. Many anime enthusiasts enjoy collecting badges.

[0003] In the anime and manga community, regular badges typically consist of a patterned layer superimposed on a tinplate. Different styles of badges feature various patterned layers, offering anime fans a wide range of choices. However, the patterned surfaces of these badges are usually quite smooth, requiring special techniques to create a visually embossed effect. While electroplating and oxidation processes can directly etch uneven patterns onto metal sheets, giving the badge a 3D effect, the hardness and strength of the metal sheet inevitably change after electroplating or oxidation. This can lead to cracking during later sealing processes, affecting the badge's surface quality. Therefore, most manufacturers use printing or spraying processes for surface treatment, but neither printing nor spraying can achieve the desired metallic texture.

[0004] Besides physical defects caused by oxidation or electroplating of the metal sheet, these badges can only be assembled by manually identifying the direction of the pattern and the pin. However, when faced with some complex patterns, it is difficult for workers to quickly locate them, which further affects processing efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a metal badge with an improved structure, which aims to solve the problem of low surface quality and packaging efficiency caused by physical defects after conventional metal sheet oxidation or electroplating.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a metal badge with an improved structure, including a badge body. The badge body includes a face cover, a molding pad, and a bottom cover. The face cover is pasted onto the molding pad, which supports the face cover. The molding pad is installed on the bottom cover. The face cover includes a connected pattern layer and a sealing layer. The sealing layer is located at the edge of the pattern layer. At least one positioning point is provided in the pattern layer. The positioning point is located in the upper half of the pattern layer, and at least one positioning point is located on the central axis of the badge body.

[0007] Furthermore, the pattern layer has three positioning points, including a center point and two side points. The center point is located directly above the central axis of the badge body, and the two side points are located on the left and right sides of the upper half of the badge body, respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, the angle between the line connecting the center point and the midpoint of the badge and the line connecting the side point and the midpoint of the badge is ∠1, where 65°≤∠1≤75°.

[0009] Furthermore, both the center point and the lateral points are circular.

[0010] Furthermore, both the center point and the lateral points are elongated.

[0011] Furthermore, a rounded corner is provided at the junction of the pattern layer and the sealing layer, with a radius of R1, where R1 ≥ 3 mm.

[0012] Furthermore, the molding pad includes a support portion and a molding portion. The support portion is attached to the back of the pattern layer, and the molding portion is disposed at the edge of the support portion. The molding portion is arc-shaped and abuts against the rounded corner. The edge of the molding portion is provided with an inwardly tapering extension portion, which is connected to the molding portion.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom cover has a bend at its edge, and the molding pad has a locking part that fits the bend inside.

[0014] The improved metal badge provided by this utility model, compared with the prior art, provides support for the electroplated or oxidized metal sheet when it is squeezed with the help of the molding pad, avoiding the metal sheet from cracking due to excessive force applied during processing; the multiple positioning points on the cover can facilitate quick positioning by workers or automated equipment, thereby improving assembly accuracy and processing efficiency.

[0028] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0029] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, when terms such as "set in," "connected," or "linked" appear, these terms should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or a connection through one or more intermediate media. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances. The directional terms appearing in this utility model are for the purpose of better describing the characteristics of the features and the relationships between them. It should be understood that when the placement direction of this utility model changes, the direction of the characteristics of the features and the relationships between them also changes accordingly. Therefore, directional terms do not constitute an absolute limitation on the characteristics of the features and the relationships between them in space, but only a relative limitation.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this utility model provides a metal badge with an improved structure, including a badge body. The badge body includes a face cover 1, a molding pad 2, and a bottom cover 3. The face cover 1 is attached to the molding pad 2, and the molding pad 2 is used to support the face cover 1. The molding pad 2 is installed on the bottom cover 3. The face cover 1 includes a pattern layer 10 and a sealing layer 11 connected to each other. The sealing layer 11 is disposed at the edge of the pattern layer 10. At least one positioning point 13 is provided in the pattern layer 10. The positioning point 13 is disposed in the upper half of the pattern layer 10, and at least one positioning point 13 is located on the central axis of the badge body.

[0031] With the above design scheme, when assembly is required, the staff or vision positioning system can quickly visually position the direction of the cover 1 through the positioning point 13, thereby reducing the time for direction determination and improving processing efficiency. The setting of positioning point 13 will not increase the existing production process. It is only necessary to add three protrusions during the pressing process. When the mold presses the metal sheet into a suitable shape, the protrusions on the mold can leave three tiny positioning points 13 on the metal sheet, which reduces the impact on the pattern quality while adding positioning points 13 and improving processing efficiency.

[0032] In this embodiment, the pattern layer 10 is provided with three positioning points 13, including a center point and two side points. The center point is located directly above the central axis of the badge body, and the two side points are located on the left and right sides of the upper half of the badge body, respectively.

[0033] In this embodiment, the angle between the line connecting the center point and the midpoint of the badge and the line connecting the side point and the midpoint of the badge is ∠1, where 65°≤∠1≤75°.

[0034] In this embodiment, both the center point and the side point are circular dots.

[0035] In this embodiment, both the center point and the lateral point are elongated.

[0036] With the above design scheme, the small area of ​​the round positioning point 13 can minimize the impact on the surface quality of the badge, while the long strip positioning point 13 can allow staff to locate the position of the positioning point 13 more quickly. Manufacturers can adjust the style and size of the positioning point 13 according to their needs to match the corresponding requirements.

[0037] In this embodiment, a rounded corner 12 is provided at the connection between the pattern layer 10 and the sealing layer 11, and the radius of the rounded corner 12 is R1, where R1≥3mm.

[0038] With the above design scheme, when the radius of the rounded corner 12 between the pattern layer 10 and the sealing layer 11 is less than 3mm, the bending amplitude is too large. The hardness and brittleness of the metal sheet after oxidation or electroplating will be significantly different from the original metal sheet. Excessive bending can easily cause the metal sheet to crack. Therefore, the radius of the rounded corner 12 at the connection between the pattern layer 10 and the sealing layer 11 should not be reduced excessively to ensure the quality of the product.

[0039] In this embodiment, the molding pad 2 includes a support portion 20 and a molding portion 21. The support portion 20 is attached to the back of the pattern layer 10. The molding portion 21 is disposed on the edge of the support portion 20. The molding portion 21 is arc-shaped and abuts against the rounded corner 12. The edge of the molding portion 21 is provided with an inwardly contracting extension portion 22, which is connected to the molding portion 21.

[0040] Through the above design scheme, the support part 20 can provide all-round support for the pattern layer 10 during the stamping process, avoiding the shape of the pattern layer 10 being changed accidentally during the stamping process, which would affect the quality of the finished product. The edge forming part 21 can guide the deformation state of the sealing layer 11 during the pressing process, avoiding the uncontrollable deformation of the sealing layer 11 during pressing, and improving the quality of the finished product.

[0041] In this embodiment, the area of ​​the support portion 20 can be set as a hollow area. The hollow design reduces the weight and material cost of the molding pad 2, ensuring sufficient support strength for the pressing process of the cover 1 while ensuring that there is no excessive difference in the overall weight, and further saving costs.

[0042] In this embodiment, the bottom cover 3 has a bend 30 on its edge, and the molding pad 2 has a locking part that fits the bend 30 inside.

[0043] With the above design, the bent part 30 at the edge of the bottom cover 3 will clamp the molding pad 2, ensuring that the two can be tightly connected.

[0044] The improved metal badge provided by this utility model, compared with the prior art, provides support for the electroplated or oxidized metal sheet when it is squeezed with the assistance of the molding pad 2, avoiding the metal sheet from cracking due to excessive force applied during processing; the multiple positioning points 13 on the cover 1 can facilitate quick positioning by workers or automated equipment, so as to improve the assembly accuracy and processing efficiency.

[0045] Where there is no conflict, the above embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0046] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
