Description

Gabarit pour le pliage des chemises La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de facilité le pliage uniforme des chemises et des tee-shirts lors du repassage domestique. Template for folding shirts The present invention relates to a device for facilitating the uniform folding of shirts and T-shirts during domestic ironing.
De nos jours, lorsque les chemises ou tee-shirts sont plies lors du repassage domestique, il n'existe sur le marché aucun outil pour facilité la mise en forme du pliage et celui-ci s'effectue d'une façon aléatoire et personnelle.Nowadays, when the shirts or T-shirts are folded during domestic ironing, there is no tool on the market to facilitate the shaping of the folding and it is carried out in a random and personal way.
Le brevet US 2988 251 concerne un dispositif de pliage de chemises constitué de deux plaques articulées ensemble, dont l'une présente une cavité et une rainure ayant pour objet d'éviter l'écrasement du col et l'alignement des boutons avec le col de la chemise lors du pliage. Le brevet EP 46 2074 concerne un dispositif pour le pliage de chemises, permettant de les transporter sans endommagement dans les valises, se composant d'une plaque et d'un cadre articulé sur celle-ci, muni de petits crans, empêchant de déplacement de la chemise, la fermeture du cadre articulé sur la plaque enserrant ainsi le vêtement préalablement posé sur celle-ci, peut par un effet de cisaillement, abîmer les chemises en les coupant. Ces deux inventions ne répondent pas aux attentes des consommateurs à savoir simplicité d'utilisation, rapidité et efficacité. L'invention permet de remédier à ce manque d'accessoire simple et efficace, en effet le dispositif selon l'invention, accroît la rapidité de la mise en forme, et permet une homogénéisation de la forme des chemises plies pour un prix modique.US Pat. No. 2,988,251 relates to a folder folding device consisting of two plates articulated together, one of which has a cavity and a groove having the object of avoiding crushing the neck and aligning the buttons with the neck of the shirt when folding. Patent EP 46 2074 relates to a device for folding shirts, allowing them to be transported without damage in suitcases, consisting of a plate and a frame articulated on it, provided with small notches, preventing movement of the shirt, the closing of the hinged frame on the plate thus enclosing the garment previously placed on it, can by a shearing effect, damage the shirts by cutting them. These two inventions do not meet consumers' expectations of ease of use, speed and efficiency. The invention makes it possible to remedy this lack of simple and effective accessory, in fact the device according to the invention, increases the speed of shaping, and allows a homogenization of the shape of the folded shirts for a low price.
L'invention a pour objet un dispositif pour plier les chemises et les tee-shirts lors des repassages domestiques. L'invention consiste en une partie principale, de type gabarit plein, de forme quasi rectangulaire, d'une épaisseur de quelques millimètres, permettant de plier une chemise en superposant le gabarit sur le vêtement repassé, posé à plat par exemple sur une table de repassage, les pans étant rabattus un à un sur le dispositif, le dispositif est ensuite retiré en le faisant coulisser par la partie supérieure du vêtement plié. Le dispositif est pourvu d'un état de surface ou pourvu en surface d'un revêtement de faible friction, de type "TEFLON" ou à base de silicone tel qu'il n'adhère pas aux matières textiles, et pourvu sur son petit côté supérieur d'une saillie fixe (2) inclinée formant une poignée. L'angle α de la saillie comprise entre 5 et 60 degrés par rapport à l'axe plan du gabarit (1) permettant de dégager l'espace à l'arrière du col de la chemise (5) et faciliter sa préhension. La partie supérieur du gabarit présente une forme permettant d'épouser la pente des épaules d'une chemise posée à plat le côté α-(3)- et le côté b-(3) étant légèrement incliné par rapport à l'horizontale αb de façon inverse, de plus la partie principale présente une très légère conicité vers le bas, en effet la largueur de sa partie inférieur l est de quelques millimètres plus petite que la largeur de sa partie supérieur l, ainsi cela facilite le dégagement du gabarit une fois le vêtement plié, de plus toutes les arrêtes sont de formes arrondies, évitant ainsi tout risques d'accrochage sur les tissus et facilitant, là aussi, l'extraction du gabarit du vêtement. Le dispositif peut être réalisé avec différents matériaux denses, choisi parmi des matériaux tels que bois, panneaux de particules, métal, plastique dense, verre ou plastique transparent tel que du 'Plexiglas' La surface non adhérente est obtenue soit par un polissage dans le cas de matériaux tels que le bois, ou par un revêtement à base de "TEFLON" ou une autre matière à faible coefficient de friction. La saillie (2), moyen de préhension, incorporée sur la partie centrale, ou sur tout ou partie, du côté supérieur du gabarit épousant les épaules α-(3)-b , peut comporter un orifice permettant d'accrocher de dispositif, de plus elle peut présenter un décrochement se prolongeant sensiblement horizontalement.
