Method of Printing Curved Surface and Curved Surface Body Printed by Using Same

摘要

A curved surface printing method comprises a step of applying a printing ink to a raised portion of a letterpress printing original plate which is a planographic plate the raised portion of which is 0.1 to 50 μm high, a step in which an elastic blanket (2) of rubber or rubberish material having a curved surface (221, 222, 21) of a predetermined shape formed on a convex or concave surface of an object (1) to be printed and set in the same polarity direction as that of the convex or concave surface of the object (1) is pressed to the letterpress printing original plate placed in a fixed position and coated with the printing ink, and the printing ink is transferred to the curved surface (221, 222, 21) of the predetermined shape, and a step of moving the elastic blanket (2) to which the printing ink is transferred and which has curved surface (221, 222, 21) of the predetermined shape, bringing the elastic blanket (2) into contact with the curved surface of the object (1), and thus printing the object. A curved surface body printed by this method is also disclosed.
