An apparatus for automatically creating a simulated mosaic controllably discharges tile pieces onto plate material and secures the tile pieces in place such that the plates with the tile pieces are freestanding permitting the plates themselves to be an ordered arrangement of sections of the mosaic once cemented to the substrate. Many different forms may be had for the plate material, including ones that are pressure or heat activatable to bond with the tile pieces or ones that are mechanically connectable.

Disclosed are systems and methods which provide durable and substantially smooth surfaces comprised of a number of smaller pieces of surfacing material. For example, tiles of natural materials, such as marble or granite, are formed into larger unitary structures, wherein the surfaces of the tiles are substantially dead flat and the seams therebetween are diminished in size so as to minimize their visual impact. These unitary structures are preferably adapted to interconnection to thereby allow formation of substantially larger surfaces. Jig apparatus and methods for there use are disclosed for casting unitary structures of various shapes and configurations in such a manner that a dead flat surface with very little to zero lippage is provided.

An apparatus and method for creating mosaic structures, generally comprises the steps of providing a frame comprising spaces for individual pieces of a mosaic tile. Each of the individual pieces are spaced from each other and positioned in each space and are circumscribed by a peripheral ridge surrounding each piece. Grout is poured into the spaces between the pieces. The grout is then permitted to dry and the resulting tile is removed from the frame.

A method of manufacturing a bead-inlaid picture by inputting a desired original image as a motif for a bead-inlaid picture by an image input device, dividing the inputted original image into each of pieces in a size equal with that of a bead, comparing numerical data for the hue and the brightness obtained for each of the pieces and numerical data for the hue and the brightness predetermined for each of the beads and replacing the numerical data for each of the pieces with a color code allocated to a bead having numerical data most approximate with the obtained data and outputting signals corresponding thereto by an image processing device, feeding beads allocated with color codes while dividing them on every color codes by a feeder, arranging the thus fed beads in accordance with the arranged sequence for each of the pieces in the original image by an actuator and, fusing the arranged beads on a glass plate. A bead-inlaid picture can be manufactured just in accordance with the original image at high quality and at a reduced cost quite automatically without requiring any particular skill.
摘要:
A machine fulfilling containment panels (P; P1-Pn) with a plurality of sets of tiles (T; T1, T2, T3), each of said sets of tiles (T; T1, T2, T3) having at least one previously selected characteristic in order to produce a mosaic pattern, comprising at least one remover system (3Z) suitable for removing from said panels (P) any of said tiles (T; T1, T2, 13) occupying positions other than as required.
摘要:
A method and a system for building a mosaic. The system includes a software processor to design a pattern from an image, a graphical user interface, an operational manager, a sorter, an inspection station, a bufferer and a mechanical mechanism. The pattern is disassembled into a plurality of sub-images, each of the plurality of sub-images is associated with at least one tile. The operational manager determines materials, a quantity of materials and a location in the pattern for each of the at least one tile. The sorter sorts the at least one tile and the inspection station conducts a quality control review for each of the at least one tile. The bufferer buffers each of the at least one tile according to a command from the operational manager and the mechanical mechanism picks and places each of the at least one tile in a predetermined position, as determined by the software processor.
