Description
- The present invention relates to a rig for folding the edge of the upper onto a last in a footwear manufacturing machine.
- In the making of footwear, machines are known which provide for the cementing of the edge of the upper to the insole in the area of the forepart of the shoe. Such machines comprise a support on which is positioned a shoemaker's last, to which the insole is applied and onto which the upper is tautened, a series of clasps which grip and stretch the upper, members which secure the last on the support, devices which deposit cement on the insole in the area of the forepart of the shoe, and two articulated plates which provide in said fore-region for the folding of the upper, released by the clasps, onto the insole of the shoe for cementing.
- The articulated plates have inner edges which interfere with the upper on the last in order to perform the folding. To assist the plates there are provided two opposing lateral pads which are brought against the upper laterally in the middle part of the shoe and which hold the upper pressed against the last in order to aid the folding of the upper by the plates in proximity to this middle region. The reason for this is that the folding of the upper in proximity to this middle region is very critical for the profile which the shoe has in this region and that, especially in certain types of footwear, the rear part is fairly rigid and adversely affects the folding.
- However, despite the use of these pads, the plates might not succeed in properly folding the upper in proximity to this middle region and hence the upper might be only partially cemented to the insole. As this may cause creases in the shoe at the end of making, it becomes necessary to detach and re-cement the upper in this critical region. This operation is carried out manually and this involves a loss of time on the part of the operator and hence a drop in productivity, and furthermore, being a manual operation, it may also not be too accurate.
- Document GB-A-1154871 discloses a footwear manufacturing machine comprising a rig for folding the edge of the upper over a last. The folding rig comprises a pair of forepart wipers which are advanced and closed to wipe the upper inwardly over the edge of the forepart of the insole. For lasting the shank portion of the shoe the machine is provided with a pair of lasting units carried on the ends of piston rod extending from fluid operated cylinders. Each lasting unit comprises a resilient band (56) which extends over and between two legs, the band being secured by a clamp.
- The object of the present invention is to overcome the aforesaid drawbacks.
- This object is achieved by means of a rig for folding the edge of the upper onto a last according to claim 1.
- Preferred embodiments of the rig are given in dependent claims 2-11
- To provide a better understanding of the invention, a description of a non-limiting illustrative embodiment thereof will be given below, illustrated in the appended drawings in which:
- Fig. 1 shows a partial perspective view of a folding rig according to the invention;
- Fig. 2 shows the folding rig of Fig. 1 in an operating position;
- Fig. 3 shows the folding rig of Fig. 1 in a subsequent operating position;
- Figs. 4, 5 and 6 show diagrammatically the operation of the folding rig of Fig. 1.
-
- The folding rig illustrated operates in a machine for making footwear of the type indicated in the introduction, that is, one comprising a support on which is positioned a shoe last to which the insole is applied and over which the upper is tautened, a series of clasps which grip and stretch the upper, members which secure the last on the support, and devices which deposit cement on the insole in the area of the forepart of the shoe.
- The figures illustrate only the last, labelled A, with insole and upper, labelled B and C respectively, and furthermore the series of clasps, labelled P.
- The folding rig comprises two
plates 10 which articulate around a common centre of rotation and which are actuated by suitable mechanisms, partially visible in the figures, in such a way as to move and rotate, and thus to operate on the forepart of the shoe. At its free end eachplate 10 has awedge 11. - This description will not dwell on the plates and their mechanisms as these are of known type in regard to their structure and operation.
- The folding rig moreover comprises two
auxiliary devices 20 arranged on opposite sides with respect to the support on which the last A is positioned. - Each
device 20 is mounted on abed 21 of the machine, visible in Fig. 1 only, on which is mounted apneumatic actuator 22 fitted with an actuatingrod 23 operating along a direction X substantially perpendicular to the axis Y of the last A positioned on the support, and in the vicinity of a middle part of the shoe. Therod 23 is integral with a substantially "C"-shaped support 24 mounted perpendicularly to the rod. The bottom arm of thesupport 24 is fixed to therod 23, while the top arm of thesupport 24 carries, elastically, afurther arm 25 which extends parallel to therod 23 towards the last A; in particular, thearm 25 is hinged at 36 in ablock 37 at the end of the top arm of thesupport 24, and aspring 38 mounted on ascrew 39 screwed into theblock 37 keeps thearm 25 elastically in position. Therod 23 and thearm 25 carry tworespective anchoring heads flexible tape 28 are fixed to theheads rod 23 clearly involves an identical movement of thetape 28. Abar 29 parallel to therod 23 and fitted, in proximity to its other end, with atooth 30, is fixed to the bottom arm of the "C"-shaped support 24, at one end. Next to thebar 29, in a suitable position, there is provided an arrestingcontrivance 31 comprising apawl 32 intended to interfere with thetooth 30 of thebar 29, actuated by apneumatic actuator 33 and restored to the rest position by aspring 34. - An
electronic facility 35, shown diagrammatically in Fig. 1 only, is also envisaged and provides for coordinating the movements of theplates 10, of theauxiliary devices 20 controlling the actuating of theactuators - The operation of the folding rig described and illustrated is as follows.
- Once the last A together with the insole B and the upper C has been located on the support, the upper C has been gripped and tautened by the clasps P and the last has been suitably secured, the two
tapes 28 are firstly moved forward by theactuators 22, followed by theplates 10, so as to reach, starting from the initial position illustrated in Figs. 1 and 4, an intermediate position illustrated in Figs. 2 and 5. Thetapes 28 reach this intermediate position by virtue of the immobilizing of theteeth 30 against thepawls 32. After these operations cement is placed on the insole B. Then, again by means of theactuators 22, and disengaging thepawls 32 from therespective teeth 30 using theactuators 33, thetapes 28 are brought against the last A so as to embrace the upper C, and subsequently theplates 10 with theirwedges 11 are made to advance and rotate so that they fold the upper C, released from the clasps P, onto the insole B for cementing, as illustrated in Figs. 3 and 6. - In this way the upper C is folded by the
tapes 28 under the middle part of the shoe, below the level of theplates 10, as clearly visible in Fig. 6, and this allows perfect folding of the upper by theplates 10 onto the forepart of the shoe and hence complete cementing of the upper onto the insole. - The fact is stressed that this is achieved by substituting the
devices 20 for the pads and corresponding actuators of the prior art, so as not to raise the cost of the machine. - The
devices 20 are obviously simple and hence highly reliable. - Furthermore, the
tapes 28 can adapt to lasts of various shape, given their flexibility. - The elastic connection of the
arms 25 to the "C"-shaped supports 24 makes it possible to compensate for excessive tensions in thetapes 28 during folding. Thescrews 39 enable the elastic loading of thesprings 38 on thearms 25 to be adjusted. - The position of the
devices 20 on thebed 21 in a direction parallel to the axis Y can be adjusted, by for example connecting the devices to the bed via suitable guides and securing the devices in the preselected position by means of suitable securing members. This adjustment allows adaptation, in addition to that seen earlier, of the devices to lasts of different shapes. - The arresting
devices 31 turn out to be particularly advantageous for synchronizing the movements of thedevices 20 with the movements of theplates 10. - The tapes can be replaced with flexible elements which fulfil equivalent functions, supported and propelled in any manner.
- In the case of the use of tapes as in the example, the tapes can be supported by structures of a layout other than those shown. The structures illustrated turn out however to be particularly simple and effective.
- Other types of actuators may be used, for example hydraulic, electric or other actuators.
- The tapes can also be elastic and in this case the elastic connection of the arms to the "C"-shaped supports can be dispensed with.
- The arresting devices can also be omitted in the case in which the electronic facility has suitable sensors to enable it to regulate the movement of the tapes with the movement of the plates. Such securing devices turn out however to be particularly simple and effective.
