Embodiments for Carrying Out the Invention

[0027] Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In all the drawings described below, the same reference numerals are added to the same components, and the description will be omitted as appropriate.

[0028] (First Embodiment) The first embodiment is the configuration of a precision decorative resin molded product. As the precision decorative resin molded product, examples include an audio product exterior cover as a housing of an electrical product, a bumper, a door mirror as an exterior part of an automobile, or a dashboard 4, an instrument panel 6, a center cluster 8, a steering wheel 10, a meter 12, a shift lever 13, etc. as interior parts of an automobile, which are shown in FIG. 1. All or part of these can be configured with a precision decorative resin molded product.

[0029] The resin molded product is molded by injecting and filling resin into a mold having a cavity with a precision decorative resin part. FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram showing a machining center 22 for machining the mold according to the embodiment. The machining center 22 has a machine tool main body 24 and a control device 26.

[0030] The machine tool body 24 performs a cutting process on the surface of the workpiece 28 to be processed to form a cavity that is a component of the mold. The machine tool body 24 has a spindle 32 that rotatably supports a cutting tool 30 and well-known means for three-dimensionally moving the workpiece 28.

[0031] The cutting tool 30 is preferably an end mill, particularly a ball end mill. The spindle 32 rotates the cutting tool 30 around the Z axis, and the well-known means freely moves the workpiece 28 in the X direction, Y direction, and Z direction.

[0032] The control device 26 is composed of a computer in which a central integrated circuit, an internal storage device, an external storage device, an external interface, and a cutting tool interface are connected by internal wiring, and controls the machine tool body 24 according to NC data. The NC data includes a tool path that is a movement path of the cutting tool 30 defined by the movement amount in the X direction, the movement amount in the Y direction, the movement amount in the Z direction, the rotational speed of the spindle, the feed rate in the X direction, the feed rate in the Y direction, and the movement speed in the Z direction. By moving the workpiece 28 according to the NC data by the control device 26, a cavity and a precision decorative resin handle can be cut on the surface of the workpiece 28.

[0033] Here, the process of creating the NC data is an important process of the present invention. The tool path is designed by a CAD / CAM system, the structure of the precision decorative resin handle is CAD-designed, and as the tool path, by forming a tool path such as a ball end mill, the precision decorative resin handle can be reproduced on the mold surface. Here, the diameter of the ball end mill is preferably from R0.2 to R2, and the interval of the tool path is characterized by being from 25 μm to 500 μm. Further, the shape height from the highest part to the lowest part is 0.05 mm to 0.2 mm, whereby the precision decorative resin can be processed.

[0034] FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the entire mold 40 according to the present invention. A forming portion formed by non-cutting or cutting technology is provided on the inner surface of the mold 40 that is inside the mold 40 and not shown. The forming portion is cut into a shape in which the mold shape is inverted so as to form the mold shape on the surface of the resin molded product.

[0035] Subsequently, a method for manufacturing the mold 50 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the first embodiment will be described.

[0036] First, it is determined which part of the resin molded product is to be formed with what design. When the design of the resin molded product is determined, a design of the mold for realizing the design of the resin molded product is performed. In the mold design, depending on the surface state of the molded product at the time of completion, there are cases where cutting processing technology is used and cases where non-cutting processing technology is used. Further, when there are a plurality of surfaces on the surface of one resin molded product, both cutting processing technology and non-cutting processing technology are used for processing on the surface of the mold. Here, in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4A, the mold 50 is composed of a mirror surface portion 52 using non-cutting processing technology and a cutting portion 54 using cutting processing technology.

[0037] The mirror surface portion 52 is polished and mirror-finished with a grindstone, paper polishing, or diamond paste.

[0038] For the cutting portion 54, a tool path 56 is generated by a CAM system for tool path generation using CAD data, which is drawing data of the molded product input in advance. The tool path 56 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 56, cusps 58 are formed parallel to the tool path at both ends thereof.

[0039] On one hand, the machined mold 50 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 50 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a flat plane corresponding to the mirror surface portion 52 is formed on one side, and on the other hand, a shape in which the portion corresponding to the cutting portion 54 has a concave portion corresponding to the cusp 58 is formed. According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a flat portion and a portion decorated by cutting can be obtained.

[0040] (Second Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 60 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the second embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 4B, the second embodiment is composed of a dimpled portion 62 using a non-cutting process technology and a cutting portion 64 using a cutting process technology in the mold 60.

[0041] A dimpled pattern 63 is formed in the dimpled portion 62. Specifically, it is transferred to the dimpled portion 62 of the mold 60 with acid-resistant ink.

[0042] Furthermore, when etching is performed, the metal is removed by corrosion where it is not covered by the acid-resistant ink, resulting in a depression.

[0043] Also, a new transfer is made to the remaining portion with acid-resistant ink.

[0044] Subsequently, when etching is performed, the areas not covered by the ink become depressions, but the areas etched in the first etching become even larger depressions.

[0045] Then, a third transfer is made on it with acid-resistant ink.

[0046] Third etching is performed from above. A more complex and deeper depression can be formed. Through the above processing, the dimpled portion 62 is formed. By using this mold 60, a molded product having the shape of the dimpled portion 62 is formed.

[0047] The cutting portion 64 is formed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0048] On the one hand, the processed mold 60 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 60 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a surface with a texture corresponding to the texture processing part 62 is formed on one side, and on the other hand, a shape in which the part corresponding to the cutting part 64 has a concave part corresponding to the burr 68 is formed.

[0049] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by texture processing and a portion decorated by cutting can be obtained.

[0050] (Third Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 70 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the third embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 4C, the third embodiment is composed of a photoetching processing part 72 using a non-cutting processing technique and a cutting part 74 using a cutting processing technique in the mold 70.

[0051] An etching recess pattern 73 is formed in the photoetching processing part 72. Specifically, a pattern film with an etching pattern drawn on the photoetching processing part 72 of the mold 70 is created, the photoetching processing part 72 is subjected to degreasing and cleaning treatment, a photoresist is applied to the photoetching processing part 72, the pattern film is pulled from above and exposed with a semiconductor laser or the like, then development processing is performed, and further etching processing is performed to remove the material in the shape of the pattern. Thereafter, the masking is peeled off to form the photoetching processing part 72.

[0052] The cutting part 74 is formed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0053] On one hand, the processed mold 70 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 70 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one side, a photo-etched surface corresponding to the photo-etching processed portion 72 is formed, and on the other side, the portion corresponding to the cutting portion 74 has a shape in which the portion corresponding to the cusp 78 becomes a concave portion.

[0054] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by photo-etching and a portion decorated by cutting can be obtained.

[0055] (Fourth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 80 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the fourth embodiment will be described. In particular, the points different from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 4D, the fourth embodiment is composed of a blasting portion 82 using a non-cutting processing technique and a cutting portion 84 using a cutting processing technique in the mold 80.

[0056] In the blasting portion 82, a blasting concave pattern 83 is formed. Specifically, a granular abrasive material of an appropriate size for processing the blasting portion 82 of the mold 80 is struck against the metal surface at high speed to remove the surface scale (for example, iron oxide), rust, and other foreign substances, or to perform surface conditioning of the metal surface. As the abrasive material, mainly silica sand, silicon carbide, alumina, etc. are used. The blasting portion 82 is formed by these abrasive materials.

[0057] The cutting portion 84 is formed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0058] On one hand, the processed mold 80 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 80 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one side, a blasted surface corresponding to the blasting portion 82 is formed, and on the other side, the portion corresponding to the cutting portion 84 has a shape in which the portion corresponding to the cusp 88 becomes a concave portion.

[0059] According to this embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by blasting and a portion decorated by cutting can be obtained.

[0060] (Fifth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 90 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the fifth embodiment will be described. In particular, the differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 4E, the fifth embodiment is composed of a laser processing section 92 using a non-cutting processing technique and a cutting section 94 using a cutting processing technique in the mold 90.

[0061] A laser recess pattern 93 is formed in the laser processing section 92. Specifically, the surface of the mold 90 is processed by moving and irradiating the laser processing section 92 of the mold 90 with an ultrashort pulse laser based on design data. At this time, by using a picosecond or femtosecond laser or one that requires higher precision without using a continuous laser or a nanosecond laser, the generation of burrs and thermal damage can be prevented.

[0062] The cutting section 94 is formed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0063] On the other hand, the processed mold 90 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 90 and cooled and solidified, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a laser-processed surface corresponding to the laser processing section 92 is formed on one side, and on the other side, a shape in which the portion corresponding to the cusp 98 becomes a recess is formed in the portion corresponding to the cutting section 94.

[0064] According to this embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by laser processing and a portion decorated by cutting can be obtained.

[0065] (Sixth Embodiment) Next, a method for manufacturing the mold 100 and a method for manufacturing a molded product in the sixth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 4F, the sixth embodiment includes an electric discharge machining part 102 that uses non-cutting machining technology and a cutting part 104 that uses cutting machining technology in the mold 100.

[0066] In the electric discharge machining part 102, an electric discharge machining pattern 103 is formed. Specifically, the electric discharge machining part 102 of the mold 100 is moved based on design data by an electric discharge engraving machine or a wire electric discharge machining machine to machine the mold surface. At this time, if it is a wire electric discharge machining machine, it can be controlled by NC data.

[0067] Through these processes, the electric discharge machining part 102 is formed.

[0068] The cutting part 104 is formed in the same manner as in the first embodiment.

[0069] On the other hand, the machined mold 100 is incorporated into an injection molding machine, and when the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 100 and cooled and solidified, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one hand, a surface machined by electric discharge machining corresponding to the electric discharge machining part 102 is formed, and on the other hand, a shape in which the part corresponding to the cutting part 104 has a concave part corresponding to the cusp 108 is formed.

[0070] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by electric discharge machining and a portion decorated by cutting machining can be obtained.

[0071] (Seventh Embodiment) Next, a method for manufacturing the mold 110 and a method for manufacturing a molded product in the seventh embodiment of the precision decorated resin molded product according to the present invention will be described. The seventh embodiment is different only in the machining method of the cutting part 114 from the sixth embodiment. The cutting part 114 generates a tool path 116 from CAD data using a CAM system (Fig. 4G). The tool path 116 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. Here, up to the sixth embodiment, adjacent tool paths are designed such that the moving direction of the tool is opposite. By reversing the moving direction, the return process of the tool can also be utilized as processing time, thus having the effect of shortening the cutting time. On the other hand, in the seventh embodiment, all adjacent tool paths are cut in the same direction. By machining in the same direction for all cutting directions, the cutting marks and the like have the same tendency, so the finish is uniform, the appearance is uniform, and it becomes a desirable trace without the appearance being rough. Therefore, the molded products molded by the mold created by this method also have the effect of having a uniform finish.

[0072] (Eighth Embodiment) Furthermore, the manufacturing method of the mold 120 and the manufacturing method of the molded product in the eighth embodiment will be described. In particular, the points different from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in Fig. 5A, the sixth embodiment is composed of a first pitch cutting part 122 that uses cutting processing technology and a second pitch cutting part 124 that also uses cutting processing technology in the mold 120.

[0073] The first pitch cutting part 122 generates a tool path 126 from CAD data using a CAM system. The tool path 126 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 126, cusps 128 are formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof, separated by a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0074] On the other hand, the second pitch cutting part 124 generates a tool path 130 from CAD data using a CAM system. The tool path 130 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 130, cusps 132 are formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof, separated by a second pitch narrower than the first pitch and derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0075] Subsequently, the processed mold 120 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 120 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one side, a portion corresponding to the first pitch cutting portion 122 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the cusp 128 becomes a concave portion, and on the other side, a portion corresponding to the second pitch cutting portion 124 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the cusp 132 becomes a concave portion.

[0076] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by cutting with different pitches can be obtained.

[0077] (Ninth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 140 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the ninth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5B, the ninth embodiment is composed of a first direction cutting portion 142 that uses a cutting technique in the mold 140 and a second direction cutting portion 144 that also uses a cutting technique.

[0078] The first direction cutting portion 142 generates a tool path 146 using a CAM system from CAD data. The tool path 146 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 146, a cusp 148 is formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0079] On the other hand, the second direction cutting portion 144 generates a tool path 150 that is 90 degrees different from the tool path 146 in the cutting direction using a CAM system from CAD data. The tool path 150 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 150, a cusp 152 is formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0080] Subsequently, the processed mold 140 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 140 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one side, a portion corresponding to the first-direction cutting portion 142 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the cusp 148 is a recess, and on the other side, a portion corresponding to the second-direction cutting portion 144 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the cusp 152 is a recess. According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by cutting in different directions can be obtained.

[0081] (Tenth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 160 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the tenth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5C, the tenth embodiment is composed of a linear cutting portion 162 that uses a cutting process technology in the mold 160 and a curved cutting portion 164 that also uses a cutting process technology.

[0082] For the linear cutting portion 162, similar to the first and second embodiments, a tool path 166 is generated from CAD data using a CAM system. The tool path 166 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 166, a cusp 168 is formed in parallel to the tool path at intervals of a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill at both ends thereof.

[0083] On the other hand, for the curved cutting portion 164, a curved tool path 170 is generated from CAD data using a CAM system. The tool path 170 is set so that the ball end mill moves in a curved shape in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 170, a curved cusp 172 is formed in parallel to the tool path in a curved shape at intervals of a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill at both ends thereof.

[0084] Subsequently, the processed mold 160 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 160 and cooled and solidified, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a shape is formed in which the portion corresponding to the straight cutting portion 162 on one side has a concave portion corresponding to the cusp 168, and on the other hand, the portion corresponding to the curved cutting portion 164 has a concave portion corresponding to the cusp 172.

[0085] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by curved cutting and straight cutting can be obtained.

[0086] (Eleventh Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 180 and a method for manufacturing a molded product in the eleventh embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5D, the eleventh embodiment is composed of a curved cutting portion 182 having a first curvature using a cutting technique in the mold 180 and a curved cutting portion 184 having a second curvature using the same cutting technique.

[0087] The first curvature curved cutting portion 182 generates a tool path 186 using a CAM system from CAD data, similar to the ninth embodiment. The tool path 186 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 186, a first curvature cusp 188 is formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0088] On the other hand, for the curved cutting portion 184 having the second curvature, a second curvature curved tool path 190 is generated using a CAM system from CAD data. The tool path 190 is set so that the ball end mill moves in a curved shape in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 190, a second curvature curved cusp 192 is formed in parallel with the tool path in a second curvature curved shape at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0089] Subsequently, the processed mold 180 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 180 and cooled and solidified, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one side, a portion corresponding to the first curvature curve cutting portion 182 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the first curvature cusp 188 is a concave portion, and on the other side, a portion corresponding to the second curvature curve cutting portion 184 forms a shape in which a portion corresponding to the second curvature cusp 192 is a concave portion.

[0090] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by the first curvature curve cutting and the second curvature cutting can be obtained.

[0091] (Twelfth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 200 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the twelfth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5E, the twelfth embodiment is composed of a linear cutting portion 202 that uses a cutting technique and a contour parallel cutting portion 204 that also uses a cutting technique in the mold 200.

[0092] The linear cutting portion 202 generates a tool path 206 using a CAM system from CAD data, similar to the first and second embodiments. The tool path 206 is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path 206, a cusp 208 is formed parallel to the tool path at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0093] On the other hand, the contour parallel cutting portion 204 generates tool paths 216, 218 parallel to the contours 210, 212, 214 using a CAM system from CAD data. The tool paths 216, 218 are set so that the ball end mill moves parallel to the contours in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool paths 216, 218, a cusp that is also the contours 210, 212, 214 is formed parallel to the tool paths at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0094] Subsequently, the processed mold 200 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 200 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a shape is formed in which the portion corresponding to the linear cutting portion 202 on one side has a concave portion corresponding to the cusp 208, and on the other hand, the portion corresponding to the contour parallel cutting portion 204 has a concave portion corresponding to the portion parallel to the contour.

[0095] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by contour parallel cutting and linear cutting can be obtained.

[0096] (The thirteenth embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 220 and a method for manufacturing the molded product in the thirteenth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the twelfth embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5F, the thirteenth embodiment is composed of a linear cutting portion 222 that uses a cutting technique in the mold 220 and a contour non-parallel cutting portion 224 that also uses a cutting technique. Since the linear cutting portion 222 is the same as that in the twelfth embodiment, it will not be particularly described here.

[0097] Here, for the contour non-parallel cutting portion 224, tool paths 236, 238, 240, 242, 244, 246, 248, 250 that are non-parallel to the contours 230, 232, 234 are generated using a CAM system from CAD data. The tool paths 236, 240, 244, 248 are cut in a direction perpendicular to the contour from the center of the contour toward the outer edge direction, and the tool paths 238, 242, 246, 250 are cut from the outer edge direction toward the center of the contour. When a ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool paths 236, 240, 244, 248, cusps are formed at both ends at a first pitch in a direction perpendicular to the contour and the tool path due to the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0098] Subsequently, the processed mold 220 is incorporated into an injection molding machine. When the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 220 and cools and solidifies, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, a shape is formed in which the portion corresponding to the linear cutting portion 222 has a recessed portion corresponding to the cusp 228, and on the other hand, in the portion corresponding to the contour non-parallel cutting portion 224, a recessed portion is formed in the portion perpendicular to the contour.

[0099] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a portion decorated by contour non-parallel cutting and linear cutting can be obtained.

[0100] (Fourteenth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 260 and a method for manufacturing a molded product in the fourteenth embodiment will be described. In particular, the points different from the first embodiment will be described. As shown in FIG. 5G, in the fourteenth embodiment, the mold 260 is provided with concentric circular boundary lines 262, 264, 266, 268, 270, 272, 274, 276 and axial radius boundary lines 261, 263, 265 for a circular pattern, and adjacent regions are configured to be processed by different processing methods. As one method, the entire circumference can be processed by changing the cutting direction by 90 degrees in adjacent regions.

[0101] The first direction cutting portion 278 generates a first tool path in the circumferential direction from CAD data using a CAM system. The first tool path is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the tool path, a cusp is formed in parallel with the tool path at both ends thereof with a first pitch derived from the cutting width of the ball end mill.

[0102] On the other hand, the second-direction cutting part 280 generates a second tool path whose cutting direction is 90 degrees different from that of the first tool path using a CAM system from CAD data. The second tool path is set so that the ball end mill moves in the designed direction. When the ball end mill cuts the mold along the second tool path, cusps are formed in parallel to the tool path with a first pitch separated at both ends due to the cutting width of the ball end mill. This process is performed across the front surface of the decorative pattern.

[0103] Subsequently, the processed mold 260 is incorporated into an injection molding machine, and when the molding resin is injected into the cavity formed by the mold 260 and cooled and solidified, a resin molded product is formed. As a result, on one hand, a shape is formed in which the part corresponding to the first-direction cutting part has a concave part corresponding to the cusp, and on the other hand, a shape is formed in which the part corresponding to the second-direction cutting part has a concave part corresponding to the cusp.

[0104] According to the present embodiment, a molded product having a decorated part by cutting processes in different directions can be obtained.

[0105] (Fifteenth Embodiment) Furthermore, a method for manufacturing the mold 290 and a method for manufacturing a molded product in the fifteenth embodiment will be described. In particular, differences from the first embodiment will be described. In the fifteenth embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, in the mold 290, by machining a cutting tool adjacent to the mold 290 a plurality of times in a specific direction, cusps 296 parallel to the tool paths 292, 294 are formed. Here, when the interval l between the cusps 296 is set to be from 100 nm to 600 nm, adjacent reflected lights interfere with each other by reflection by adjacent cutting traces by the cutting tool, resulting in iridescent reflection. This can occur in both the mold and the molded product. Also, when the surface roughness, which is the height of the cusp, is set to be from 0.00 to 0.20 μm, it becomes specular reflected light without becoming iridescent, when the surface roughness is from 0.20 to 0.40 μm, the formed surface by the cusp becomes iridescent, and when the surface roughness is 0.40 μm or more, it becomes white gloss.

[0106] (Sixteenth Embodiment) Next, in the sixteenth embodiment, a method of drawing a natural object on the mold surface for decoration will be described. Here, as the natural object, the ripples on the water surface of a shallow pool are adopted. A photograph of the ripple 300 is shown in Fig. 7A.

[0107] The first step is to photograph the ripple, which is a natural object, and convert it into a grayscale image. For example, here it is assumed to be saved as a jpeg image. The jpeg image data is composed of a segment and image data for each frame, and the grayscale image records the gradation for each pixel.

[0108] The second step is to convert the jpeg image data into intermediate data. Specifically, among the image data, the X and Y coordinate data are used as position coordinates. On the other hand, it is a step of converting the gradation data into Z coordinate data. When it is the lightest gradation, the Z coordinate is set to the maximum value, and when it is the darkest gradation, the Z coordinate is set to the maximum value. By setting in this way, the shading can be expressed by the mold. The three-dimensional data (x, y, z) 302 thus obtained is shown in Fig. 7B.

[0109] In the third step, further, in order to add undulations to the water surface, the undulation data 304 is prepared and the visualized one is shown in Fig. 7C. As the undulation data 304, data of the same area as the three-dimensional data 302 in (x, y, z) coordinates is generated in advance.

[0110] The fourth step is the combined data 306 obtained by combining the ripple three-dimensional data (x, y, z) 302 and the undulation data (x, y, z) 304. By constructing a tool path from this combined data (x, y, z) 306, the mold data for the ripple can be constructed.

[0111] In addition, as natural objects other than the water surface, as shown in Figs. 8A to 8E, rocks 308 such as granite, plants 310 such as tree leaves, leather 312 such as napped leather, wood grain 314, Japanese paper 316, etc. can be used.

[0135] The method for manufacturing a mold for molding the precision decorative resin molded product 520 will be described as follows. First, an example of the natural object to be scanned in the first step is the granite 308 shown in FIG. 8A.

[0136] In the second step, 3D scanning is performed on the selected granite to obtain the position information and height information of the surface irregularities. The actually obtained data is shown in FIG. 32. The y coordinate is fixed and the x and z coordinates are displayed. FIG. 31 shows an image of this data for all y coordinates.

[0137] In the third step, the Z coordinate data of the 3D scan data obtained in the second step is converted by a specific proportional coefficient. The data obtained by the conversion is shown in FIG. 33.

[0138] In the fourth process, a tool path is created based on the data before processing obtained in the second process, and the die surface is machined (Fig. 34C2).

[0139] In the fifth process, a blasting process is performed on the die machined in the fourth process (Fig. 34C4).

[0140] In the sixth process, the die surface is re-machined based on the data machined in the Z direction in the third process for the blasted die (Fig. 34C6). For this reason, the portion indicated by 522 in Fig. 33 is further cut. Also, a part of 522 in a part of Fig. 29 is partially mirror-finished.

[0141] In the seventh process, injection molding is performed using the die completed in the sixth process. Thus, the precision decorative resin molded product 520 shown in Example 10 according to the present invention is formed.
