Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method of effectively manufacturing a required number of slide fasteners of a desired kind selectively from various continuous fastener chains.
  • Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publications Nos. Hei 3-99602 and Hei 4-40902 disclose a method of successively manufacturing individual slide fasteners by continuously supplying a continuous fastener chain, forming successive space portions, which have a predetermined size, one at every slide fastener length, attaching a set of slide-fastener-constituting parts, such as a pair of top stops, a slider and a bottom stop, to the continuous fastener chain at every slide fastener length and cutting the fastener chain at every slide fastener length.
  • a set of slide-fastener-constituting parts such as a pair of top stops, a slider and a bottom stop

  • a first and a second tape gripper are provided along the travelling path for releasably gripping the tape-like workpiece and for moving them toward and away from each other, between which is further provided a cutter for transversely cutting tape-like workpieces and means for welding a trailing end of a preceding tape-like workpiece with a leading end of a suceeding tape-like workpiece.
  • a required number of slide fasteners are manufactured by stocking in a fastener chain supply source a continuous fastener chain, as previously measured in whole length, and supplying the whole length of the continuous fastener chain to the production line.

  • the total length of fastener chain might be short with respect to the length of the total number of slide fasteners to be actually manufactured; consequently, the whole length of fastener chain should be previously set to exceed the total length of the predetermined number of slide fasteners to supplement an estimated shortage. If the whole length of fastener chain is previously set to thus exceed, the slide fastener chain would be more than enough with respect to the total number of actually manufactured slide fasteners, and such an excessive part of the fastener chain must be dumped, thus causing a reduced rate of production. Further, since the excessive quantity is not constant all the time, production control would be very laborious and time-consuming.

  • the method further includes the step of automatically connecting, after automatically switching over to supplying another continuous fastener chain of different kind for the subsequent production of slide fasteners, a cut end of the succeeding continuous fastener chain with a cut trailing end of the preceding continuous fastener chain.
  • the method includes attaching a set of slide-fastener-constituent parts one after another to the fastener chain
  • a desired number of each of various kinds of slide fasteners are successively manufactured by supplying a continuous fastener chain to be processed to the space-portion forming station from the fastener chain supply source having plural kinds of continuous fastener chain regardless of the number of slide fasteners to be manufactured, measuring every slide fastener length of the fastener chain by length-measuring rollers, forming successive space portions in the fastener chain one at every slide fastener length, and automatically switching over to supplying another fastener chain of different kind when the number of the formed space portions reaches the predetermined number of slide fasteners.
