Application February 23, 1937,
No Drawing.
New York, N. Y.
Serial No. 127,169
10 Claims.
Thisinvention relates to improvements in methods of making duplicate copies, and more particularly to improvements in offset duplication methods of making'dupiicate copies of typegrkitten. matter, hand written matter, and the Heretofore several methods have been employed for producing copies of matter of the foregoing character, all of which methodsresuit in the production of duplicate copies of master images, which copies are usually produced on paper contacted in some manner with a master having thereon an image of the work to be duplicated, which master contains material quantities of strong dyestuff adapted to be transferred to the copies in the steps followed in the different processes.
-In one method, use is made of what is known to the art as a hectograph pan. In this method a gelatin compound is disposed in a pan, A normal master sheet is typewritten, written, or drawn, with an ink strongly colored with basic dyestufl, usually crystal violet, the master being usually in' the form of a sheet of paper or the like. Crystal violet is ordinarily used since this dyestuff is more powerful and is more quickly soluble than other dyestuif. The master is laid on the top surface of the gelatin compound in the pan and permitted to remain in contact with so the surface thereof until the compound absorbs locally sufficient of the dyestufl to produce at least onehundred copies of the matter to be reproduced. The absorption of dyestuff from the master is in accordance with the lines of 5 the image on the master so that in effect a mirror reverse copy of the matter to be reproduced is formed in the compound. Sheets of copy paper are then contacted with the surface of the compound, resulting in the transfer of suflicient dyestuff from the compound to the copy sheets as to produce copies of the matter desired.
This principle has been further extended to a process in which the gelatin composition is thickly coated on a backing sheet, usually as a 45 roll of considerable length fastened to the drum of a two cylinder machine. The same procedure for causing absorption of dyestuff is followed out so that the composition contains absorbed therein a mirror reverse copy of the original in matter and the surface of the gelatin becomes a printing medium. Copy sheets are fed between the master cylinder (having the gelatin surface) and a platen cylinder causing transfer of dyestuff to the copy sheets and thereby producing I. legible copies of'the desired matter.
' tactd with the mirror reverse copy on the master use thereof: Since the processes have required .-moisture of the-hands of the user alone is suiii- In still another process, use is made of a method known to the art as spirit duplication. In this process, a master. copy in strong soluble basic anilin dyestuif is produced by typewriter, writing or drawing, as in the case of the gelatin processes, except that the typewriting, writing, or drawing is in mirror reverse. Ordinarily, use is made of a special carbon paper whose active surface is placed in contact with one side of the master sheet on which the original typewriting, writing, or drawing is imposed. When the image to be reproduced is imposed on one surface of this master sheet, the other surface thereof, which is in contact with the carbon paper, acquires a deposit of the coating material of the carbon paper according to the lines of impress on the blank surface thereof. Thus a mirror reverse copy of the matter to be reproduced is formed on one surface of the master sheet by the transfer of the coating material from the carbon paper to the master sheet. This mirror reverse copy is attached to the drum of a spirit duplicator and sheets of copy paper are fed thereto in succession. Means are provided for moistening the sheets of copy paper immediately prior to their contact with the master sheet, and since the basic anilin dyestuif in. the composition on the master sheet is highly soluble. the moist surface of the copy sheets when consheet cause the transfer of coloringmatter to the copy sheets. In this process, use may be made of any desired solvent, but preferably the solvent used is ordinarily more volatile than water, the practice having been to make use of alcohol, methanol, acetone, or other similar solvents or combinations of solvents. By the use of such solvents, more copies can be produced from a single master, and the copies so produced are sharper than those produced by the use of water. Moreover, the copy so produced dries almost immediately at normal temperature.
, In the practice of all of the foregoing processes, V certain faults are present which srve to limit the the use of dyestuflwhich is highly water soluble, it follows that the handling of the dyestuif in most instances results in stains both to the person and the clothing of the user. For example, the
cient to transfer material quantities of the dyestuif to thehands, and consequently clothing also readily becomes stained, all of which is highly undesirable. The ribbons, carbons, or fluids which have been used all contain large quantities I;
.of basic dyestuffs,-such as crystal violet, rho;
damine, Victoria blue, or Victoria green, all of which are water soluble colors. It is evident, therefore, that any process which requires the handling of ribbons, carbon paper, or ink of this character will produce the objectionable results before set forth.
An object of the present invention is to provide new methods for producing duplicate copies, which methods are free from the objectionable results before described.
Another object of the invention is to provide methods of making duplicate copies, which methods involve the use of transfermaterial which in itself and before further treatment possesses substantially no objectionable color transfer value.
Another object of the invention is to provide methods of producing duplicate copies wherein master copies of the matter being reproduced are formed through the agency of matter having no appreciable color transfer value and wherein such masters are subsequently treated to cause such material to have high color transfer value.
In carrying out the foregoing and other objects of the invention, the present invention contemplates the use of material which in itself possesses no appreciable color transfer value and which material is of a character as to be insoluble in water. Consequently, this material may be handled in any manner required by the processes hereinafter described withoutincurring the liability of staining the person or clothes of a user.
The basic anilin colors which have previously been used in connection with carbon paper and ribbons are in the form of organic salts or esters of highly complicated organic radicals. The present invention makes use of the desirable qualities of these basic'dyestuifs without incurring the undesirable qualities thereof. To this end, instead of using the basic colors themselves, use is made of the bases ofsuch basic colors such as the bases of crystal violet, methyl violet, rhodamine, Victoria blue, Victoria green, Bismarck brown,
and aurarnine or combinations of these bases.
Bases of these basic dyestuffs can be manufactured in 'any suitable manner either as an intermediate step in the normal production of the basic dyestuffs, or as the result of processing basic dyestuffs in solution. For example, when basic dyestuif in solution is treated with dilute alkalies, as for example, sodium carbonate or sodium hydrate, a precipitate of water insoluble basic color base is formed which is the hydrate of the water Such precipitate may beflltered bearing radical. and dried, and the powder so formed may readily be obtained on the market as crystal violet base, rhodaminebase, etc.
As a further step in making possible the prac-' tice of the processes within the scope of this invention, ribbons or carbons may be made which incorporate, instead of basic dyestufl', the base of such basic dyestuif which is combined with some binding material or vehicle of a character which is substantially free from any acid solvent which user since the material which is to be utilized as color transfer material has of 'itself no appreciable color transfer value and is water in soluble, but must be further treated to cause it to acquire high color transfer value.
Use of the present invention therefore can be made in duplicate processes involving the use of gelatin, either in a pan or on a roll. In such processes the normal image of the matter to beduplicated, if typewritten, can be made on a sheet of paper through the agency of a ribbon of the character before described. The gelatin, either in the pan or on the roll, can be either impregnated or the surface thereof washed with a dilute acid in aqueous solution; as for example, a ten per cent solution of lactic acid. The acid, either on the surface of the gelatin, or impregnated therein serves to react with the base of the dyestuff absorbed from the sheet of, paper, having the normal image thereon, to convert such base of the dyestuif into basic dyestuff. Copies may then be'made n the usual manner.
In the adaptation. of the present invention to spirit duplicating processes, again the normal steps followed in such processes are carried out with the exception that use is made of carbons, or of powdered ink, which have no appreciable transfer value, but which must be subjected, to a reaction to acquire such transfer value. A
" mirror reverse copy of the matter to be duplicated is formed on a master sheet in any of the usual manners such as for example, by making use ,of a coated .carbon containing the base of the dyestuif combined with a suitable vehicle. A mirror reverse image of the matter to be reproduced may be activated by a small amount of a relatively weak acid in a number of ways, of which three are hereinafter set forth.
1. An activated sheet specially prepared is made up of a sheet of paper coated with a saturated solution of solid .acid, "such as benzoic, in a volatile solution such as alcohol. To such solution is added an alcohol soluble gum such as shellac, which diminishes the tendency of the acid to crystallize on the sheet. After the master sheet, having the image in mirror reverse thereon, has been fastened to the drum of the spirit duplicator machine, and prior to the preparation of any copies therefrom, an activating sheet, or a series of activating sheets, are fed slowly through the machine. The surface of the activating sheet is moistened by the alcohol or other solvent of the duplicating machine, and' this moistened acid bearing surface is firmly pressed bythe machine against the master image, thereby transferring sumcient acid to the base ofthe'dyestuif in the master image as to carry out the proper reaction to convert this base of the dyestuif into basic dyestuih The result of this procedure is that the image on the master sheet is now soluble substantially as if originally made with the objectionable carbons heretofore employed, and copies may be made in the usual fashion. g
2. The specially prepared activating sheets may be dispensed with and in lieu thereof any acid soluble in or miscible with the solvent used in the duplicating machine may be added to the solvent in the tank of such machine. For this purpose it has been found that the addition of ten percent of lactic acid causes the solvent in the tank to have sufficient acidity as to carry out the proper reactions.
When such a solution is used in the duplicator tank, the. practice of making copies is followed a the types of duplication 75 in mirror reverse out as before with these differences in operation. The acidified solution is supplied to the surface of the copy sheet in such minute but sumcient quantity as to provide sumcient acid to react with the-matter of the master image to cause the conversion of limited quantities of such matter into the desiredbasic dyestuff. This conversion, depending on the quantity of acidified solution supplied to the surface of the copy sheet, is more or less of local nature, but eventually the entire quantity of material in the master imagewill be converted into the proper dyestufl.
3. In a still further method of performing the necessary chemical reaction, a master sheet having the image in mirror reverse thereon in water insoluble dyestufi is prepared as before, but prior to being attached to the duplicator machine, such sheet is subjected to acid fumes. For example, a closed box may be provided, such box having a felt bottom on which a few drops of acetic acid are placed. A sheet may be introduced into the box and permitted to remain therein for a suflicient length of time to permit the acid fumes to accomplish the desired reaction. In practice it has been found that about five minutes of such treatment willsufiice.
The foregoing has been used to describe the present invention in the preferred form. However, there are other methods which may be utilized for securing the water insoluble image on the master copy. One of such methods is to substitute an insoluble acid" color for the color base hereinbefore. described and to activate the master by the use of an organic chemical having a basic reaction, preferably triethynol ammine instead of the mild acid previously described.
Another method is to convey to the master,
preferably by ribbons or carbons, an image in color material which is insoluble in water but which is soluble in a particular solvent more volatile than water. In this event the chemical reaction before described is not required since the solvent for any spirit duplication is sumcient to cause the transfer of thecoloring material; and in the event of the gelatin processes, such solvent can be incorporated in the gelatin. A variety of such dyestuffs are being made and sold by various dye makers and these dyestuffs particularly are those insoluble in water but soluble in alcoholand acetone respectively. These special dyestuffs,
while not preferred in the practice of the present.
invention, may be used with satisfactory results.
As a still further embodiment of the invention that ribbons or carbons may it is contemplated be manufactured to contain a material which will react with another material contained'in either the spirit solvent or the hectograph gelatin mass to develop color. For example, these steps can be-followed for obtaining the reaction between gallotannic acid, and iron'salts to produce black coloring material and also the reaction' between ferrocyanide and ferricyanide for the development of blue coloring matter.
The term "offset duplication processes" in this specification and'in the claims is'used to'deflne processes described hereinbefore which-have the common element that the desired image is produced by dyeing the copy locally as distinguished from lithography (direct or oifset) printing, mimecgraphing, or multigraphing, all of which involve the depodt of a pigment on the copy. The term"hectographic process" has also been used herein to define any process in whiohthe normal image is transferred to the surface of a gelatin or other suitable compound from which copies are taken by dyeing the paper locally at such transferred image. The word hectograp is used to define devices employed in the above described hectographic process whether such devices be simple pads containing the hectographic composition or machines involving rolls or strips of sinnartype.
From the foregoing it will be seenthat the present invention provides methods of producing duplicate copies by ofiset duplication, which' methods overcome the objection heretofore raised thereagainst due to the extreme solubility of the coloring matter which renders the material.
necessarily used in connection with such offset duplication processes, objectionable due to staining of the users person or clothing.
