11738,549
- Appl. No:
17/312072
- Application Filed:
August 10, 2020
- Abstract:
A gold leaf processing device separates gold leaf from a gold leaf fabric having a first base material attached thereto, and attaches the separated gold leaf to a second base material, the gold leaf processing device comprising: a gold leaf attaching part which dips the gold leaf fabric in an aqueous solution to allow the first base material to be sunk and separated from the gold leaf, and attaches the second base material to the gold leaf remaining, in a floating state, on the surface of the aqueous solution; and a gold leaf fabric transfer part which transfers the gold leaf fabric to the gold leaf attaching part. An associated method of using the device is also provided.

- Claim:
1. A gold leaf processing device for separating gold leaf from gold leaf fabric having first base material attached thereto, and attaching the separated gold leaf to second base material, the gold leaf processing device comprising: a gold leaf attaching part which dips the gold leaf fabric in an aqueous solution to allow the first base material to be separated from the gold leaf and sunk, and attaches the second base material to the gold leaf remaining in a floating state on the surface of the aqueous solution; and a gold leaf fabric transfer part which transfers the gold leaf fabric to the gold leaf attaching part.
- Claim:
2. The gold leaf processing device of claim 1 , wherein the gold leaf attaching part comprises, a bath for containing the aqueous solution, a tray for receiving the gold leaf fabric provided from the gold leaf fabric transfer part; and an ultrasonic generator for applying ultrasonic waves to the aqueous solution.
- Claim:
3. The gold leaf processing device of claim 2 , wherein the gold leaf fabric transfer part comprises, a gold leaf fabric storage unit for accommodating the gold leaf fabric; and a gold leaf fabric transfer unit to withdraw the gold leaf fabric from the gold leaf fabric storage unit and to transfer the gold leaf fabric to the bath.
- Claim:
4. The gold leaf processing device of claim 3 , wherein the gold leaf fabric transfer part comprises a first base material retrieving unit for retrieving the first base material separated from the gold leaf fabric.
- Claim:
5. A method of separating gold leaf from gold leaf fabric to which first base material is attached, and attaching the separated gold leaf to second base material using the gold leaf processing device of claim 1 , the method comprising: dipping the gold leaf fabric in aqueous solution to allow the gold leaf to float on the surface of the aqueous solution and allow the first base material to be separated from the gold leaf and sunk; and attaching the second base material to the gold leaf remaining in a floating state on the surface of the aqueous solution.
- Claim:
6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the separation of the first base material and the gold leaf is performed by ultrasonic waves.
- Claim:
7. The method of claim 5 , wherein the step of attaching the second base material to the gold leaf comprises: providing the second base material to the aqueous solution, bringing the gold leaf into contact with second base material, and then raising the second base material and gold leaf being attached to the second base material together.
