Claims. (Cl. I8-30) This invention relates to an apparatus and method for the controlled deposition of material on a work piece and more particularly to depositing all types of molding material on an impervious work piece such as ceramic tile, plastic, or the like, or upon a pervious piece such as paper or cardboard if desired.
A number of difficult problems arise in attempting to deposit substantially identically equal amounts of moldingY material on a number of work pieces. These problems can be illustrated in the printing of electrical circuits on insulating work pieces such as ceramic tile, plastic, or the like. VIn printing a Vresistance element, it 1s very important that substantially identically the same length, width and depth of resistor material he deposited each time as the electrical resistance is very sensitive to small changes in the volume of material deposited and an electrical resistance,4 variation of more than a f ew per cent is, Often Critical in the operation of a circuit. Among other things, it is necessary to completely fill the matrix cavity usedv in depositi-11g the` material with resistor molding material for each depositing operation., This is very difficult when one realizes that the insulating work piece is impervious to air or glas at the temperatures and pressures used in the printing operation. No resistor material in excess, of the amount lling the cavity can be allowed to deposit on the insulating work piece. In addition, the Surface of each insulating work piece, particularly if it is a ceramic, is usually at least slightly irregular and wavy. To deposit substantially the` same amount of re- Sistor material on separate insulating Work pieces requires that the contour of the matrix cavity surface conform substantially with that portion of the work piece on which the resistor material is to be deposited. Still another problem remains. Generally the conducting lines` and terminal spots of silver or the like are first formed on lthe work piece and this is followed by printing theresistance elements. These elements are located between the ends or terminal spots of the silver conducting lines and to ensure good electrical contact, 'a portion of each end of a resistance element. laps over the end portion of lthe silver lines.` Thus,v in printing the resistance element, a portion of the matrix surface engages the raised step of` the silver lines. It is very essential that the matrix surface engage in intimate, sealed contact the surfaces of both the raised silver line and the insulating work piece during printing to prevent seepage 0f the resistor material deposited on the work piece surface beyond the limits prescribed by the shape of the matrix cavity.l This is also true for other steps or irregularities which might be present on the insulating work piece surface.
As disclosed hereinafter, this invention has features which solve these problems and as a result it is now possible to ldeposit substantially identically the same amount of' molding material (well within limits of :L15 in resistance value, for example) on any number of separate work pieces. Other features and advantages will be apparent in the following specification and the drawings, in which:

In the particular embodiment of the invention 'as illustrated the printing apparatus. is mounted in an upright press frame having a base. and. a pair of upright standards ou which are tixedly mounted a matrix and the aoparatus for feeding material, to the matrix and for venting the matrix: cavity when a work Piece is in sealed contact with the matrix. The werk piece is moved in a vertical; direction away from and toward the matrix by raising and lowering a shaft on which is mounted a locating table supporting the work piece. This shaft is connected toja pneumatic ram actuated by a combination of a valve and air pressure. In this particular apparatus, the work piece is moved to engage the matrix surface. It is to. be noted that one skilled in the art would; have, no. diculty in making the work piece support stationary and causing motion of the matrix.
Turning now to, a more detailed description of this apparatus and particularly to the movable work piece portion, a pneumatic ram 11 having a Vertically movable shaft 12 is mounted on the base of apress frame 1,0. This shaft is actuated up or down byV a combination of air pressure and a valve 14, the all." Pressure being supplied through lines 15, i6, and 17 air pressure source not shown in the drawing, A pressure regulator 1,8` located in the pressure line 15 controls the air pressure delivered to the pneumatic ram and the amount of this. pressure is measured by the pressure, gauge 149ialso located in line l5. Valve 14 is located at the junction of the threel pressure lines and when in the up position completes, a pressure connection to the bottom 0f the 4ram` cylinder saus,- iug the Shaft 12 tu move upwards, and Wheau the down position effects movementof the shaft in a downward direction. Threaded on top, of the shaft 12 is an adjustment sleeve 76, the top portion of which houses. the shank portion of the rod 12a. This rod is freely moveable in a vertical direction within the sleeve.

This spring serves as the means of accurately controlling the amount of pressure exerted by the work piece against the matrix. In this particular apparatus, thelocatingtable consists of a lower press plate 2,14 welded to the bedr, a locating table 22 bolted to the top surface of the lower press plate, and a make-ready pad 23 covering the top surface of the locating plate. This pad acts as a cushion for the work piece 20 and may be made of rubber or any other suitable material, Locating jigs 24 are rigidly mounted on the top surface of this pad, serving to properly align the work piece with the rigidly positioned matrix member located above it.
Turning now to. the feeding and venting features, ,relating to a matrix member and to the matrix itself, reference will now be had to Figures l, 4, 5, 6 and 7,Y An upper press plate 25 is rigidly bolted to the upright standards of the press frame so that its bottom Surface is, directly above and parallel to the locating table. This plate serves as a cross` member of the press frame and is a support for the upper portion of the frame. In addi,- tion, it carries a valve plate 26 bolted in face to face C911,- tact with lits bottom surface which in turn carries a matrix block 27 rigidly fastened to the bottom surface of the valve plate. The flat bottom surface of this matrix block has a recess containing a securely imbedded resilient matrix insert 28. The combination of the matrix block and the imbedded matrix insert comprise the matrix member in this particular apparatus.
The preferred resilient insert is an element of material which is reluctantly deformable under pressure and which is not dissolved, softened, swelled, or otherwise` dele,- teriously effected by the molding material. Such substances as styrene resins, vinyl resins, polyethylene having a molecular weight of at least 6000, butyl synthetic rub- 'the top surface of the matrix block 27 but separate from each other. A plurality of inflow ducts 33 and outflow ducts 34 lead from the respective inflow and outflow channels through the matrix block 27 and the resilient matrix insert 28 to a plurality of separated cavities 35,- there being one inflow duct and one outflow duct leading to each cavity. By means of these inflow passages, molding material is lead to the cavities and at the same time any gas or air trapped in the cavities 35 when the work piece 20 and matrix insert 28 are in intimate, sealed contact can be Vented through the outflow passages. It is to be understood that the particular arrangement of channels, passageways and ducts can be varied greatly.
The feeding of molding material to the matrix cavity is controlled by an inflow valve 36 (Figures l and 4) which extends through a hole 37 in the upper press platey 25 and is threaded in the inflow passageway hole 29 of the valve plate. It has a vertical valve tube 39 along the center vertical axis of the valve housing 38 and extends above the housing. The portion of the valve tube 39 within the valve housing is sealed in the middle portion of the housing by a packing gland 40 and packing 41. A compression spring 78 mounted within the valve housing and surrounding the valve tube 39 bears on the bottom surface of the packing gland 40 in the housing and a ring 79 secured to the valve tube to urge the valve tube towards the closed position. Near the bottom of the valve tube is an aperture 42 leading from the tube to an annular chamber 43 surrounding the tube. tends to the base of the valve housing and leads directly into the inflow passageway 29. A push-off plunger 44 having a conical shaped point is connected to the end of the valve tube 39, this tube terminating a short distance below the aperture. The plunger blocks off the inflow passageway when the valve tube is in the down position as shown in Figure 4 preventing any molding material from flowing to the matrix cavity and also serves as the means for retaining any molding material present in the ducts 31 at the time of closing. When in the up position, the valve permits the flow of molding material to the matrix cavity through the inflow passages.
To completely fill the matrix cavity when the work piece is in intimate sealed contact therewith,vit is necessary to vent the air and gas present in the cavity during feeding of the material. As disclosed in this particular apparatus, the venting of the matrix cavity is accomplished by including a vacuum. A vacuum line 55 connected to a vacuum pump not shown leads through a trap 56 and is connected to the outflow valve tube 39a. This tube of the outflow valve 45 has exactly the same structure and operates in exactly the same manner as the inflow valve 36. It in turn is connected to the outflow passageway 30 of the valve plate. Thus, when the valve tube is in the up position, a vacuum is drawn in the matrix cavity. When the valve tube is in the closed position, the vacuum is shut off and any material which happens to be in the outflow passages between the matrix cavity and the plunger is retained in the passage. It is to be understood that although a vacuum means of venting is herein disclosed, this invention is not limited to this particular means of venting.
In order to operate the inflow and outflow valves concurrently, a lever 46 is pivoted to bracket 47 secured to the frame and a link is pivoted to both the lever and the yoke 48. In this Way, motion of the handle portion of the lever concurrently and simultaneously moves the tube members of the valves in an up or down vertical direction. The yoke 48, having bifurcated ends is secured to the valve tubes by means of couplings 49 secured to the portions of the valve tubes extending above the valve tube housing.
A reservoir 50, supported by cross members connected to the frame and located above the inflow valve tube 39 serves as the means for storing and supplying the mold- Ving material. and clamp assembly 51 and is open at the bottom, having This reservoir has a removable sealed top This chamber ex-,
a hose connection S2 leading from the bottom to the inflow valve tube 39. Air pressure is here supplied to the top surface of the molding material through a pressure line 52 which isk connected to the reservoir and leads through its wall above the level of the molding material, a pressure regulator 54 controlling the air pressure delivered to the reservoir.
In operation, the Work piece is brought into intimate, sealed contact with the resilient matrix insert by raising shaft 12 until the piston hits the top of the cylinder or some other appropriate mechanical stop. The spring 77 which surrounds the rod 12a on which is mounted the locating table supporting the work piece is then in compression and exerts the force necessary for obtaining a sealed contact between the matrix insert and the work piece. It is to be noted that by adjusting the sleeve 76, one is able to accurately control the amount of pressure existing between the matrix insert and the work piece when the shaft 12 is raised to its top position. When the work piece and matrix insert surfaces are in intimate, sealed contact, the operator opens the inflow and outflow valves by raising the lever arm 46. Molding material is then pressure fed from the reservoir through the inflow valve tube and passages to the matrix cavity. At the same time, a vacuum is being drawn in the matrix through the outflow passages of the outflow tube valve, the vacuum line thereby assisting the complete filling of the cavity. After a short period of time, when the cavities are completely filled, the operator closes the inflow and outflow valves by lowering the lever arm. As a result, the flow of material to the matrix is shut off at the inflow passageway and the outflow venting is shut off at the outflow passageway. At the same time, any material remaining in the inflow or outflow passages immediately above the mold cavity is retained therein so that when the work piece is moved away from the matrix, no added material remaining in the inflow or outflow passages is pulled back and deposited thereon.
Referring now more particularly to Figures 2 and 3, a representative product of my method and apparatus is illustrated in more detail. The work piece 20, to which reference has been made, may be a small ceramic tile, for example. As part of the process of making it a finished resistor block, it would have been primarily printed with conducting spots or terminal portions here identified as 60-66, the spots 60-62 being in a row at one end; the spots 60--65 being in a row at the other end, and the larger center conducting portion 66 being the common connection of all of the resistor elements in a particular circuit. The matrix element used in my apparatus may have six mold cavities therein, as has been illustrated, of the same or different sizes depending upon the resistance values desired, thereby resulting in the deposit of the six resistors 70-75 illustrated.
As is more particularly shown in accentuated form in Figure 3, the silver conducting areas 61 and 66, for example, by virtue of their thickness above the surrounding surface of the tile (which would normally be in the neighborhood of 1 or 2 thousandths of an inch) create a step over which the resistor deposit 71 must be accurately molded. The use of a resilient matrix element providing a perfect seal despite this step, and despite any minute irregularities in the intermediate surface of the tile, has proved extremelyy important in maintaining close tolerances of accuracy in the resistance values of the resistors thus printed. In order to prevent undue compression of the resilient insert, with possible variations in the volume of the mold cavity, I prefer to use a material of the kind described earlier which may be considered as reluctantly or only slightly yieldable. By virtue of the venting provided as the mold cavitiesy are formed, a complete filling of the mold cavities on each operation is insured; and the provision of appropriate means in both the inflow and outflow ducts for holding any material therein prevents pull-back of this material when the mold is separated from the work piece, also improving the accuracy and uniformity of quantity of material deposited at each operation.
