ABSTRACT:
A mug printing clamping device (20) is shown for transferring images to curved substrates such as the surfaces of a mug (10). The device employs a flexible band (28) which forms a cylindrical cavity lined with a pad (30). A decal (14) containing the image to be transferred is inserted between the pad (30) and the mug (10) and pressure is applied to the flexible band (28) by rotating cam (38) counter clockwise, which moves slidable post (58) in the direction of adjustable post (36). A ratchet gear (40) and pawl (42) lock cam (38) into position enabling mug printing clamping device (20) to accommodate a wide variety of mug sizes. The mug (10) and decal (14) are then heated, causing the sublimation dyes on the decal (14) to transfer the image on the decal (14) to the surface of the mug (10).
