Definitions
- aspects hereof relate to multi-frame manufacturing apparatus for manufacturing articles. Aspects further relate to methods of manufacturing articles utilizing a multi-frame manufacturing apparatus.
- Non-rigid materials may be fed into an assembly-line- or conveyor-type manufacturing system or machine from a material stock including a large roll or continuous web. Working with such large sections of material can be cumbersome. This is particularly true as non-rigid materials generally are stretchable in at least one direction when placed under tension. Attempting to process non-rigid materials in a tensioned state causing stretch of the material may lead to manufactured articles that have mistakes or deformities and are consequently unusable.
- CN 204 954 787 U describes a frame parts machining assists workstation.
- KR 2012 0130562 A describes a multi-frame manufacturing tool being further relevant for the present invention.
- the multi-frame manufacturing apparatus includes a plurality of discrete frames.
- Each frame includes a movement mechanism that enables it to move between sequentially arranged processing stations in an assembly-line- or conveyor-type manufacturing system.
- Each movement mechanism permits substantially horizontal movement both forward and backward.
- Each frame includes at least one gripping mechanism that includes an open material-receiving position and a closed material-gripping position.
- the gripping mechanism of the frame When a non-rigid material is loaded onto one of the frames, the gripping mechanism of the frame is in the open material-receiving position. Once the material is in place and in a non-tensioned state (that is, taut but not stretched, such that the material is not substantially distorted in any direction), the gripping mechanism closes into the closed material-gripping position such that it temporarily secures the non-rigid material in place on the frame for processing. If the material stock from which the material is loaded onto the frame is more than the quantity desired for processing as a single processing unit, the gripped portion of the material may be cut or otherwise separated from the larger quantity of material such that it may be processed more manageably.
- a non-rigid material is loaded in a non-tensioned state onto the first of a plurality of frames.
- the first frame includes at least one gripping mechanism that, once the material is in place on the first frame, is actuated such that it closes and temporarily holds the non-rigid material in place on the frame for processing.
- the non-rigid material secured to the first frame is in a taut condition but not stretched such that distortion of the material results.
- a movement mechanism coupled with the first frame causes the frame, with the material in place, to move at least substantially horizontally in a first direction.
- a second movement mechanism associated with a second frame is caused to move substantially horizontally in an opposing direction and substantially vertically causing the first frame and the second frame to switch their respective positions among the plurality of processing stations.
- a multi-frame manufacturing apparatus e.g., a manufacturing apparatus having at least two discrete processing frames
- the multi-frame manufacturing apparatus provides for manageably handling discrete portions of a large material stock of non-rigid material in a non-tensioned state (i.e., taut but not stretched, such that the material is not substantially distorted in any direction).
- a non-tensioned state i.e., taut but not stretched, such that the material is not substantially distorted in any direction.
- the multi-frame manufacturing apparatus in exemplary aspects, temporarily secures discrete portions of non-rigid material to the frames for processing.
- the non-rigid material is secured to the frames along the stretch direction (that is, the direction along which the non-rigid material has the greatest relative ability to stretch or deform from its relaxed, taut, but non-stretched state).
- stretch direction that is, the direction along which the non-rigid material has the greatest relative ability to stretch or deform from its relaxed, taut, but non-stretched state.
- Non-rigid materials may include, by way of example and not limitation, knit materials, woven materials, mesh materials, non-woven materials, leather materials, foamed materials, and the like.
- Non-rigid materials utilized in the manufacture of articles often are fed, by way of example only, from material stock (e.g ., material rolls or webs) having large quantities of material. Material from a material stock may be fed into a manufacturing system at an appropriate processing station of a plurality of processing stations sequentially arranged in an assembly line.
- Non-rigid materials generally include a direction (referred to herein as the "stretch direction") along which the material has the greatest relative ability to stretch or deform from its relaxed, taut, but non-stretched state when the material is in a state of tension or strain (e.g., a stretched state). Such tension may cause deformity of the non-rigid material during processing resulting in deformed or misshapen manufactured articles.
- maintaining placement of non-rigid materials in a non-tensioned state during processing i.e., taut but not stretched, such that the material is not substantially distorted in any direction
- a multi-frame manufacturing apparatus in accordance with aspects hereof may include at least two discrete frames configured for receiving a non-rigid material and for moving the non-rigid material through a plurality of sequentially arranged processing stations positioned in a conveyor- or assembly-line-type of arrangement.
- the frames may be substantially rectangular and movably positioned between a pair of side rails.
- substantially rectangular refers to frames having a first pair of sidewalls positioned opposite one another and a second pair of sidewalls positioned opposite one another and perpendicular to the first pair of sidewalls.
- the sidewalls may be formed from one or more wall portions that collectively form a substantially rectangular perimeter sidewall surrounding a central void.
- aspects hereof contemplate that those wall portions requiring attachment to one another may have end portions cut at angles of about forty-five degrees (45°) to allow the wall portions to be mitered to form a rectangular structure. It will be understood that angles slightly off of 45° are contemplated and are intended to be within the scope of aspects hereof.
- Further aspects hereof contemplate the joining of wall portions having abutting attachment surfaces at about ninety (90°) relative to one another or any other angle permitting attachment to form a rectangular structure. Any and all such variations, and any combination thereof, are contemplated to be within the scope of aspects hereof.
- Mechanisms for fastening the wall portions may include various screws or other fastening mechanisms known to those having ordinary skill in the art.
- Each frame may include a movement mechanism that permits substantially horizontal movement both forward and backward between the pair of side rails.
- forward and backward refer to opposing movements in the longitudinal direction of the side rails between which movement is permitted.
- the pair of side rails may be positioned parallel to one another and spaced apart from one another by a distance sufficient to permit functional receipt of the frames.
- substantially horizontal movement refers to horizontal movement in the longitudinal direction of the side rails that may or may not also include vertical movement to a lesser extent than the horizontal movement. Substantially horizontal movement results in a discernible horizontal progression either forward or backward and may include, but does not necessarily include, a concurrent discernible vertical progression.
- the movement mechanism for at least one of the two frames additionally permits substantially vertical movement both up and down.
- up and down refer to opposing movements in the latitudinal direction of the side rails between which movement is permitted
- substantially vertical movement refers to vertical movement in the latitudinal direction of the side rails that may or may not also include horizontal movement to a lesser extent than the vertical movement.
- substantially vertical movement results in a discernible vertical progression either up or down and may include, but does not necessarily include, a concurrent discernible horizontal progression.
- the movement mechanism for each of the two frames permits both substantially horizontal movement and substantially vertical movement.
- actuation of the movement mechanisms for two frames of the multi-frame manufacturing apparatus may permit the two frames to switch positions with one another relative to the conveyor- or assembly-line processing stations.
- Processing stations may include, by way of example and not limitation, stations for cutting, pressing, molding, adhering, and the like.
- actuation of the movement mechanisms for both frames may permit the first frame to proceed to the second processing station (via substantially horizontal movement or both substantially horizontal and substantially vertical movement) and the second frame to proceed to the first processing station (again, via substantially horizontal movement or both substantially vertical and substantially horizontal movement).
- the two frames have switched positions if after the switch, the second frame is at a sequentially later processing station in the manufacturing process than the first frame.
- the switching of frames relative to the processing stations of the manufacturing process permits processing of material associated with one frame while material is being loaded onto another frame. This increases speed of manufacture and efficiency as processing does not cease when new material is loaded into the processing system.
- Each frame include one or more gripping mechanisms configured to temporarily secure the non-rigid material on the frame in a non-tensioned state for processing, that is, in a state wherein the material is taut but not stretched, such that the material is not substantially distorted in any direction.
- the frame is a substantially rectangular frame, aspects hereof contemplate gripping mechanisms pivotally connected with each of two opposing sidewalls thereof.
- Each gripping mechanism may be configured as a clamping mechanism and may include an open material-receiving position and a closed material-gripping position. When a non-rigid material is loaded onto the frame, the gripping mechanisms of the frame may be in the open material-receiving position.
- the gripping mechanisms may close into the closed material-gripping position such that they temporarily secure the non-rigid material in place on the frame for processing.
- the gripping mechanisms grip the non-rigid material along the stretch direction (that is, the direction along which the non-rigid material has the greatest relative ability to stretch or deform from its relaxed, taut, but non-stretched state). If the material stock from which the material is loaded onto the frame is more than the quantity desired for processing on the frame, the gripped portion of the material may be cut or otherwise separated from the larger quantity of material such that it may be processed more manageably.
- aspects provided herein also are directed to a method of manufacturing articles (or portions thereof) formed from non-rigid materials utilizing a multi-frame manufacturing apparatus.
- Articles may include, by way of example and not limitation, apparel, outerwear, sock liners, other portions of footwear, and the like.
- a quantity of non-rigid material is loaded onto a first frame from a material stock utilizing a material loading mechanism.
- the non-rigid material is loaded onto the first frame at a loading station that is one of a plurality of sequentially-arranged processing stations positioned in a conveyor- or assembly-line-type of arrangement.
- the first frame may be substantially rectangular and movably positioned between a pair of parallel side rails.
- the first frame may include one or more gripping mechanisms configured to temporarily secure the non-rigid material on the first frame in a non-tensioned state for processing ( i.e., in a state where in the material is taut but not stretched).
- a non-tensioned state for processing
- the first frame is substantially rectangular
- aspects hereof contemplate gripping mechanisms coupled with each of two opposing sidewalls, the two opposing sidewalls being adjacent the parallel side rails.
- Each gripping mechanism may be configured as a clamping mechanism and include an open material-receiving position and a closed material-gripping position. When the non-rigid material is loaded onto the first frame at the loading station, the gripping mechanisms of the first frame may be in the open material-receiving position.
- the gripping mechanisms may close into the closed material-gripping position temporarily securing the non-rigid material on the first frame for processing.
- the non-rigid material is gripped along the stretch direction (i.e., the direction having the greatest relative ability to stretch or deform). If the material stock from which the non-rigid material is loaded onto the frame is more than the quantity desired for processing as a single processing unit, the gripped portion of the material may be cut or otherwise separated from the larger quantity of material.
- the first frame may include at least one movement mechanism coupled therewith that permits substantially horizontal movement both forward and backward between the pair of parallel side rails.
- the parallel side rails are spaced apart from one another by a distance sufficient to permit movement of the first frame there between.
- the movement mechanism may be actuated causing the first frame, with the material in place, to move substantially horizontally in a first direction while, synchronously or asynchronously, a second movement mechanism associated with a second frame, also substantially rectangular and movably positioned between the pair of parallel side rails in accordance with aspects hereof, is caused to move substantially horizontally in an opposing direction and substantially vertically causing the first frame and the second frame to switch positions.
- the movement mechanism may be actuated causing the first frame, with the material in place, to move substantially horizontally in a first direction and substantially vertically while, synchronously or asynchronously, a second movement mechanism associated with a second substantially rectangular frame (movably positioned between the pair of parallel side rails in accordance with aspects hereof) is caused to move substantially horizontally in a direction opposing the first direction and substantially vertically such that the first frame and the second frame cooperate to switch their relative positions.
- a second movement mechanism associated with a second substantially rectangular frame movably positioned between the pair of parallel side rails in accordance with aspects hereof
- one or more of the movement mechanism for the first frame, the movement mechanism for the second frame and the gripping mechanisms may be manually actuated. In aspects, one or more of the movement mechanisms and the gripping mechanisms may be actuated by coordination with a computing device (not shown) that is functionally and/or logically coupled with at least one of the multi-frame manufacturing apparatus, the processing stations, and the frames. Any and all such variations, and any combination thereof, are contemplated to be within the scope of aspects hereof.
