Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for removing coupling elements from a slide fastener stringer, comprising:
  • Slide fasteners are generally manufactured by successively attaching coupling elements to a stringer tape through a die-casting or injection- molding process to produce an elongate slide fastener string, removing a prescribed number of attached coupling elements from the slide fastener stringer to form an element-free space, and cutting off the stringer tape across the element-free space to provide a slide fastener length. It is general practice in the art to shorten a finished slide fastener of predetermined length in order to meet the dimensions of a textile article to which the slide fastener is to be stitched. To reduce the length of the finished slide fastener, it is necessary to remove a certain number of coupling elements from an end of the slide fastener.
  • Conventional apparatus for removing coupling elements include an apparatus for cutting off the heads of the coupling elements and then forcibly removing the legs thereof off the slide fastener tape and an apparatus for pressing the legs of the coupling elements to a flattened configuration and thereafter pulling the slide fastener tape from the flattened legs.
  • these known apparatus forcibly remove the legs of the coupling elements from the slide fastener tape, the tape is liable to be damaged, and the coupling elements or their legs may not be removed thoroughly.
  • the present invention seeks to provide an apparatus for reliably keeping coupling elements erected and removing the coupling elements from the slide fastener tape.
  • the upper ends of the punch guides and the free lower ends of the vertical members of the punch dies jointly clamp the coupling elements to be removed so that the punch is pressed exactly against the central portions of the coupling elements. Therefore, the coupling elements can be severed vertically into halves without impairing the stringer tape.
  • an apparatus 10 for removing coupling elements generally comprises a pair of posture control mechanisms 11 for controlling the posture of elongate slide fastener stringers S fed parallel to each other, a pair of seam detectors 12 for detecting any joint or seam in the stringers S, a pair of upstream stop mechanisms 13 for forcibly stopping thestringers S when coupling elements E are to be removed therefrom, a pair of element remover mechanisms 14 for removing the coupling elements E with punch dies and punches or punch guides, a pair of coupling element detectors 15 for counting coupling elements E as they pass therethrough, a pair of downstream stop mechanisms 16 for forcibly stopping the stringers S in synchronism with the upstream stop mechanism 13, and a pair of main feed mechanisms 17 for feeding the stringers S.
  • the paired fastener stringers S are fed by the main feed mechanisms 17 respectively along feed paths P through the various components referred to above of the apparatus 10. Coupling elements can be removed from the stringers S by the element remover mechanisms 14 while the stringers S are being forcibly stopped in the feed paths P by the stop mechanisms 13, 16.
  • Each of the stringers S is composed of a slide fastener stringer tape T and discrete coupling elements E injection-molded or die-cast on a longitudinal beaded edge B ( Figure 6B) of the stringer tape T.
  • the stringers S are discharged by the main feed mechanisms 17 from an injection- molding or die-casting machine or from storage units.
  • Each of the posture control mechanisms 11 operates to orient the stringer S from a horizontal posture into a vertical posture with the coupling elements E directed downwardly.
  • the posture control mechanism 11 comprises a pair of guide rollers 20, 22 having their axes lying perpendicularly to each other.
  • the guide rollers 20 of the posture control mechanisms 11 are rotatably supported on a support 21 mounted on a base 19 and have coaxial horizontal axes.
  • the guide roller 21 comprises a conical roller rotatably supported on an L-shaped arm 23 attached to the support 21 with a large-diameter end of the guide roller 21 being positioned downwardly.
  • the guide roller 22 has its axis directed vertically and is located downstream of the guide roller 20 in each of the feed paths P.
  • the guide roller 20 guides the strings in a horizontal plane, while the guide roller 22 guides the stringer S to travel in a substantially vertical plane along the feed path P with the coupling elements E positioned downwardly.
  • the seam detectors 12 are located downstream of the posture control mechanisms 11, respectively.
  • the seam detectors 12 are of the same construction, and one of the seam detectors 12 is illustrated in Figure 3.
  • the seam detector 12 comprises a pair of photosensors 24, 25 for detecting a metal tape applied to a seam or joint between elongate stringers S, and a pair of support members 26, 27 supporting the photosensors 24,25, respectively.
  • the support members 26, 27 are mounted in spaced relation on a support arm 28 fixed to the base 19, there being a vertical guide space or slot 29 defined between the support members 26, 27 for passage therethrough of the stringer S from the posture control mechanism 11.
  • the photosensor 24 is mounted on the support member 26, while the photosensor 25 is mounted on the support member 27 in confronting relation to the photosensor 24 across the guide space 29.

  • the pusher 38 When the pneumatic cylinder 35 is inoperative, the pusher 38 remains retracted from the guide space 34. When the pneumatic cylinder 35 is actuated, the pusher 38 is projected into the guide space 34 toward the guide block 33, pressing the coupling elements E of the stringer S against the guide block 33 for forcibly stopping the stringer S in the feed path P.
  • Each upstream stop mechanism 13 is associated with a tensioning mechanism 40 composed of a pneumatic cylinder 41 mounted by a support member 42 on the guide block 32 and having a piston rod 43, and a pusher 44 mounted on a distal end of the piston rod 43.
