It is evident that the drawings in the following description are only examples of the application, from which other drawings and other embodiments can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without inventive effort.

In the prior art, after finishing the design of the garment, a garment designer (garment designer) in the garment manufacturing field needs to further write a process sheet to describe the production process flow of the garment, and the process sheet of the garment is shown in the following table:

this type of process recipe shown in the above table is relatively easy for human experts to understand, but has problems of insufficient specifications for robots of fully automated clothing factories, and thus can be difficult to understand. The method of the application is an operation code which can be understood by a robot for translating the technological requirements into specifications by a human designer (clothing designer).

In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a method for coding a clothing process, which translates the clothing process into an operation code recognizable by a robot, so that the robot can automatically and smoothly execute the clothing process.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more apparent, the technical solutions in the application will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The basic concept to which the present application relates is explained below. It should be noted that these explanations are for easier understanding of the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection claimed by the present application.

Linked CAM (computer Aided Manufacturing ): software for managing, controlling and operating production facilities by using a computer of Shanghai Kagaku robot science and technology Co., ltd. The input information is the technological route and procedure content of the clothing, and the output information is the technological process code to control various kinds of equipment for clothing production. .

As shown in FIG. 1, the present application provides an embodiment of a method for coding a clothing process flow, comprising the steps of:

s100, obtaining the mapping relation between the parameters of the preset clothing process flow and the corresponding codes.

It will be appreciated that this implementation provides a garment designer with a ridge-first garment CAM software. The garment designer can write the operation codes according to the rules set by the designer in the garment CAM software according to the technological requirements of the designer and the operation codes are stored in a file. The robot can acquire the operation code by opening and reading the file and execute the operation code. The rules set here include preset mapping relationships between parameters and corresponding codes of the garment process, and may also include specific operations and requirements of the input process.

Wherein the parameters include the process parameters related to the process flow and other contents related to the process flow in the process recipe.

In addition, the Ling-first garment CAM software may formulate a unified translation specification and standard. Based on this specification and standard, the garment designer expresses the garment process flow in the Ling-first garment CAM software with an operation code.

For example, a clothing designer and a user holding a process flow sheet may log in a clothing CAM software interface to obtain an entry and notice of inputting a process flow, and input the process flow after obtaining a mapping relationship between parameters of a preset clothing process flow and corresponding codes.

S200, inputting at least one parameter of the current clothing process flow according to the mapping relation, and automatically writing codes corresponding to the parameter.

In some embodiments, the parameters of the garment process flow include a plurality of parameters, and when a parameter is entered, the CAM software automatically writes the corresponding code.

For example: when the user enters the lockstitch machine, the CAM software automatically writes the "lockstitch machine" into a "PF", and the like, a robot-recognizable code.

Or, after the CAM software interface inputs the parameters of the current clothing making process flow, the background is called to automatically write the parameters into corresponding codes.

S300 correlates one or more of the codes to form robot-identifiable operating program code.

When a user inputs a plurality of parameters, the CAM software automatically writes a corresponding plurality of codes. For example, the parameters input are "shoulder seam, flat seaming machine, stitching", CAM software automatically writes "1, PF, FH", associates these several codes to form the robot identifiable operation program code, and stores it in a file manner so that the robot refers to and executes the operation program code in the file.

In some embodiments, before the mapping relationship between the parameters of the preset garment process flow and the corresponding codes is obtained, the method further includes the steps of:

and setting the mapping relation between the parameters of the clothing manufacturing process flow and the corresponding codes through the CAM software.

In some embodiments, the step of inputting parameters of the current clothing process according to the mapping relationship, and automatically writing operation program codes of the current clothing process specifically includes the steps of:

inputting the operation sequence of the current clothing process flow, and automatically writing serial number codes of the clothing process flow; inputting the operation position of the current clothing manufacturing process flow, and automatically writing a position code; inputting equipment for operating each position and automatically writing corresponding equipment codes; inputting operation actions executed by the equipment on the position, and automatically writing corresponding operation codes; and inputting remark parameters and automatically writing corresponding remark codes.

Specifically, when the device code is written automatically, the device code can be replaced by the code of the spatial position where the device is located.

In a simplified case, the device operation code may be generated by integrating the device to be operated and the operation method for a certain position instead of the separate device code and operation code.

Exemplary, device code as shown in the following table:

apparatus and method for controlling the operation of a device	Code
		Four-wire serging machine	SB
Iron with a sole	YD
		Three-needle five-thread flat seaming machine	BF
Flat seaming machine	PF

In the above table, the code of the device "four-wire lockstitch machine" may be "SB", the code of the device "iron" may be "YD", the code of the device "three-wire five-wire flat seaming machine" may be "BF", and the code of the device "flat seaming machine" may be "PF".

Exemplary, operation codes as set forth in the following table:

operation of	Code
		Stitching	FH
Ironing process	ZT
		Folding suture	DZ
Hemming stitching	ZB
		Are connected with each other in sequence	+
Operation of prior to brackets	()

In some embodiments, before the inputting the position of the current clothing process flow operation, automatically writing a position code, the method further comprises the steps of:

one or more locations are marked on the cut pieces by CAM software.

For example, as shown in fig. 2, the back sheet of the cut piece is marked with the reference numeral (1) of the shoulder seam position, the reference numeral (2) of the neckline position, the reference numeral (3) of the cuffs position and the reference numerals (5, 6, 7, 8, 35) of the corresponding positions.

In addition, when the front sheet of the cut-parts needs to be operated, it is also possible to label each position of the front sheet of the cut-parts that needs to be operated, and the reference numerals are exemplified by (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 40) and the like, and the reference numerals are different from the reference numerals of the rear sheet.

When it is desired to operate the left sleeve in the cut piece, the left sleeve is marked, for example, with reference numerals (21, 22, 23, 24) in fig. 2 for the left sleeve. When it is desired to operate the right sleeve in the cut piece, the right sleeve is marked, for example, with reference numerals (17, 18, 19, 20) in fig. 2 for the right sleeve. When it is desired to operate the collar, the collar is marked, for example with reference numerals (27, 28, 29, 30) in fig. 2 concerning the collar.

The sequence of markings for each location of the panel may include, among other things, markings that would be used by a garment designer for normal operation of the panel, e.g., a typical designer would begin marking the label from either the front or back panel. In addition, the marking order of the cut pieces may represent an operation order when the robot performs the garment process flow.

Note that, the expression forms of the reference numerals include, but are not limited to, numerals, symbols, and the like, and any code recognizable by the robot. Reference numerals are used herein to illustrate examples only, for the sake of clarity in understanding the specific methods in the present embodiments.

Since it is possible to operate on multiple positions of the cut piece, there are multiple position correspondence codes and writing of the corresponding operation codes, and in some embodiments, the method for coding the clothing process flow further includes the steps of:

By the method, subsequent misoperation caused by unchanged position codes when a plurality of position codes exist can be avoided, and the reliability of code writing is improved.

In some embodiments, the correlating one or more of the codes to form robot-identifiable operating program code includes the steps of:

Illustratively, the location code, the device code, and the operation code are combined in the necessary order to form an operation program that can be easily read and understood by the robot.

As shown in FIG. 3, the present application provides an embodiment of a method for coding a clothing process flow, comprising the steps of:

In some embodiments, the method for coding the clothing process flow further comprises the steps of:

s400, the robot recognizes the operation program code of the current clothing manufacturing process flow and automatically executes the current clothing manufacturing process flow.

It should be understood that when the execution subject for executing the current garment manufacturing process flow is a robot, the current garment manufacturing process flow has been written and associated according to the writing method of the above embodiment and is stored in a file. The robot obtains the operation code and executes the operation code by opening and reading the file.

By means of the method, the clothes making process flow can be translated into the operation codes which can be identified by the robot, and the robot can automatically and smoothly execute the clothes making process flow.

In some embodiments, the remark code comprises a specific operation object of the current operation, the specific operation object comprising a trademark and/or a wash mark; the operation code includes robot-recognizable action instructions, the actions including single actions and combined actions.

For example, the motion instructions of the robot include a single motion or a combination of motions. Such as: stitching: FH; ironing: ZT; folding and stitching: DZ; hemming and stitching: ZB; and (3) connecting with each other in sequence: ++, of the material; the operations are preferentially performed on the bracket content: brackets; etc.

In another aspect, the present application provides another embodiment of a method for coding a garment manufacturing process, comprising the steps of:

The designer can write the operation code in the software according to the rules set by the designer and can be stored in a file according to the technological requirements of the designer. The robot can acquire the operation code by opening and reading the file and execute the operation code.

Garment designers label the cut pieces they design with the Ling-first garment CAM software, such as shown in FIG. 2.

The CAM software receives parameters input by a clothing designer according to a clothing process flow sheet, automatically writes corresponding codes, and then correlates one or more codes to form operation program codes for the robot to recognize and execute corresponding operations.

Wherein the code content may include: cloth operation position code, equipment code, operation code, new mark, remark and operation program.

Position: the position codes are marked on all places where the cloth needs sewing, ironing or other operations, such as: shoulder seam: 1, a step of; a collar 2; cuffs: 3, a step of; etc. When the 2 position codes appear together, their order represents a top-bottom or side-to-side relationship on the sewing device or other related device.

Specifically, when two location codes are adjacent, the device relationship corresponding to the location in the two location codes may be determined based on the location codes and the order of the location codes.

Illustratively, when 2 position codes appear together, their order represents a top-bottom or side-to-side relationship on a sewing machine or other related device.

3. Device code: coding for all equipment of an unmanned automatic garment production plant, such as: flush joint machine: PF (physical filter); four-wire serging machine: SB; an iron: YD; a three-needle five-thread flat seaming machine BF; etc.
