Hand stamp with adhesively held ink cartridge Description
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to hand stamps and more particularly to a self-inking hand stamp that does not require a stamp pad. The hand stamp utilizes a porous foam layer and an ink cartridge mounted together in intimate contact with each other to create the printing aspect of the device. The porous foam layer has the image forming stamp material on its surface. This invention also relates to the design and manufacture of the stamp frame that adhesively holds the porous foam layer and ink cartridge to the stamp frame.
Many conventional stamps require manufacturing the printing surface from rubber or other flexible material. The printing surface is securely mounted on a handle that is grasped by the user. The printing surface is placed into contact with an inkpad where ink transfers to the printing surface. The inked printing surface is then pressed against the surface onto which the stamp image is to be transferred. Repetition of the stamping process requires that the printing surface be pressed against the inkpad each time an image is to be transferred. This is a disadvantage to the user as it requires extra time for each re-inking step and slows down the stamping process if multiple stampings are to be done. It also requires the use of a separate inkpad that must be periodically re-inked.
