Description

~{~~
10385~7S
Processes for the produc~ion of marbled or mottled .. ~:
cakes or bars, particularly of soap, by extrusion through a screw extruder, in which the rope or extruded section con- ;
sisting of a mottled mass is cut up into blanks, which are then subjected to a stamping process, are known.
~ process of this type is described in German Patent No. 1,953,916. The aim of invention claimecl in this patent is to attain an aesthetic effect on the pieces of soap formed, ,. . . ~
This is made possible by turning the shapes or blanks round by 90 after they have been cut off and then stamping them in the axial direction. Mottled structures are formed with colored filaments comparable to wood grain branching off radially or . `;~
regularly from the axis of symmetry and running toward the periphery of the structure.
In the commercial development of this invention it has now been found that the pieces of soap thus made tend to develop fissures which extend more or less through the bars or tablets during use thereof and upon drying. ~ ;
An object of this invention is therefore to improve ','.
the known process for the production of mottled soap according .
to German Patent No. 1,953,916 so that either fissures no ;
longer form on drying after use, or at least the issure .. . . . ..
~ormation is no longer troublesome for all practical purposes, however with the mottling with the mottled filaments running ~;
radially from a center point to the periphery of the piece of soap nevertheless remaining.
Broadly speaking, the present invention meets the above object by providing a process for the production of marbled or mottled soap cake or soap bar comprising the steps o extrud~
ing and forming a soap strand of the re~uired dimensions, having axially aligned filaments or layers of a different color from the principal color therein, cutting the ex~ruded strand of the required dimensions, having axially aligned filaments or layers ~ S ~ ~
of a different color from the principal color into stamping ,~
blanks of the desired dimensions, su~stantially parallel at an angle a of from 75 to 15 to the axis of the extruded , strand, stamp molding the stamping blanks at an angle ~ of from 90 to 30 to the cut surfaces of the stamping blank, ~"`
and recovering a marbled or mottled soap cake or soap bar. ' ~, The present invention also results in the obtaining ~ '~
;~ of a marbled or mottled cake or bar produced by the above process having mottled filaments running radially from a ,,"` ;~
center point to the periphery of said cake or bar. ' These and other objects of the invention will become ,`~
more apparent as the description thereof proceeds. '~

he above objects have been achieved by the development ', of a method for producing a marbled or mottled mass, in particu~
;lar of soap, using screw extruders in which either dyestuff is ,' '1, introduced through openings in the screw extruder cylinder into ,~
; 'the mass being extruded or diferent colored soap masses are, ,~
, 30extruded in separate screw extruders and thsn mixed, in which ' , '' I ... . .

:.-i ,~:~ ' ; ' ~`

~03~75 `: `
method the extruded mass, whlch is marbled or mottled in a~ially aligned sect ons, is cut into stamping blanks, the cut surfaces being at an angle ~ of from 75 to 15, preferably from 60 to 45, to the axis of the extruded mass, and the stamping blanks are stamp molded, the direction of stamping being at an angle of from 90 to 30, preferably 90 to 45, to the cut surfaces of the blank. ;~
By soaps are meant solid pieces of cleaning agents, which contain the usual fatty acid salts or synthetic detergent substances or mixtures of both.

By axis of the extruded section is meant the axis of symmetry of the rope or mass of soap issuing from the screw ex- ;
truder. ;~
More particularly therefore, the present invention ~ ;
relates to a process for the production of a marbled o~r mottled cake or bar comprising the steps of cutting an extruded strand of the required dimensions, having axially aligned filaments or layers of a different color from the principal color, into stamping blanks of the desired dimensions, at an angle ~ of from 75 to 15 to the axis of said extruded strand, stamp molding - ;

said stamping blanks at an angle ~ of from 90 to 30 to the cut surfaces of said stamping blank, and recovering a marbled or ~ narblecl mottled cake or bar; as well as the ffl ~hb~ or mottled cake or bar so produced and ha~ing mottled filaments running radially from a center point to the periphery of said cake or bar.
Owing to the fact that the cut surfaces are made in each case at an angle ~ of 75 to 15, preferably from 60 to 45 to the axis of the extruded section, soap stamping blanks are -obtained in which the bounding surfaces formed by the cut surfaces 3 run parallel, but are no longer perpendicular to the axis of the ~Lo3~5 extruded section. If now the stamping blanks thus produced are stamped, in which case the direction of stamping proceeds at an angle ~ of 90 to 30, preferably from 90 to 45 to the cut sur~
faces~ the individual mottling filaments are less strongly distor~
ted than when the blanks standing on edge are molded into pieces of soap in a known way. Ic was recognized that the tendency to fissure formation on drying was obviously connected with too great a distortion of the mottling filaments. AnDhow it was determined that, with a cutting angle ~ of less than 75 to the axis of the extruded section and on adjustment of the angle ~ of the stamping direction to the cut surface of less than 90, the tendency toward fissure formation on wetting and drying already largely ceased and could be disregarded for practical purposes.
A reduction of the cutting angle ~ to below 15 is not ~ advisable, since the aesthetic feature thereby desired, namelyJ' the formation of the above-described marbled or mottled struc- ~ ~
tures with filaments running substantially from a central point ~ ~ -radially to the periphery, can no longer be obtained. Depending - on the size of the cutting angle ~, it is possible not only to obtain the known mottled structures, but apart from this numerous ' variations are possible so that the pieces of soap have partly ~ ~;
`3' structures with radial filaments, which do not start from a center point lying in the axis of symmetry of the finished piece .~ ~ ... ..
3 of soap and then ad~acent filaments are oriented in a preferred longitudinal direction on a further part of the piece.
The present invention will now be further described ~3 with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-Fig. 1 shows various stamping blanks;

Stamping blanks 1,2,3 and 4 (Fig. 1) each have two cut surfaces 5,6 which are at an angle a to the axis 7 of an ex~
truded section of a mottled or marbled soap. a for stamping blank (1) is 75, for stamping blank (2) 60, for stamping blank (3) 45 and for stamping blank (4) 30.
Stamplng blank 1 is placed between the two halves 8,9 ;
of a stamping mold, the direction of stamping being at an àngle of 90 to the cut surfaces 5,6 to give, on stamping, a piece of -soap 10 in bar or cake form (Figs. 3 and 4) having a typical mottled structure, in which some of the marbled filaments 18 radlate from a point 12 not lying in the axis of symmetry 11 of the piece of soap 10.
Another soap stamping blank 13 (Fig. 5) having been cut at an angle ~ of 60 is shown in a stamping mold 8,9 in which the stamping direction is at an angle ~ of 45 to the parallel cut surfaces 5,6 of the soap stamping blank 13. A piece of soap 14 in bar or cake form is produced on stamping the stamping blank 13 (Figs. 6 and 7) in which marbled filaments 19 extend radially from a point 15, not lying on the central axis 11, to the peri~
phery of the piece of soap 14 or to an area 16 at one end of the ~,j piece of soap 14 in which parallel filaments 17 extend from the periphery of the piece of soap 14 part of the way to the central ~;

axis. 11.

eccentric point of origin with other angles ~ of stamping.
