Abstract

Machine for brushing suede or split skins confers a uniform direction of the short pile of the skins, using a rotary brush (4) driven by an electric motor (9). A structure supports the upper part of canopy (2) of a work table (3). The rotary brush is mounted in the canopy on bearings which allow a quick removal of the brush, either to turn it round, or to replace it. The brush is enclosed in a housing (5) to prevent the garment from winding round it. Air is sucked through the brush to remove detached shreds of leather and foreign matter or dirt. A telescopic vertical arm (14) maintains a curved plate (13) to support the skin under treatment. The machine replaces the tiring process of hand brushing for suede garments.

Description

L'invention fournit une machine, simple et efficace, pour le brossage de vetements en peau de daim, peau de dédoublement ou autres matériaux analogues. The invention provides a simple and efficient machine for brushing deerskin clothing, split skin or other similar materials.

Le daim et la peau de dédoublement sont deux types de peau utilisées couramment pour la confection de vêtements ; ces peaux ont un poil court et fort dont llorien- tation change lorsqu'elles sont brossées, ou simplement quand on y passe la main, ce qui détruit le bon effet de l'ensemble, et ce qui fait que lorsqu'on nettoie des vetéments réalisés en ces matériaux, il est important d'en brosser le poil afin que son orientation soit uniforme et confère auxdits vêtements les caractéristiques de bonne présentation qu'ils doivent avoir lorsqu'ils sortent des établissements de nettoyage. Suede and split skin are two types of skin commonly used for making clothes; these skins have a short, strong coat whose direction changes when they are brushed, or simply when you pass your hand through it, which destroys the good effect of the whole, and what makes that when you clean clothes made of these materials, it is important to brush the coat so that its orientation is uniform and gives said clothing the characteristics of good presentation that they must have when they leave cleaning establishments.

Les caractéristiques de la machine selon l'invention, qui remplace avantageusement le fatigant brossage à la main employé jusqu a maintenant pour ce besoin, seront bien comprises à la lecture de la description qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation et au vu du dessin dans lequel
la figure 1 est une vue en perspective de la machine représentée de façon schématique, et
la figure 2 en est une vue de côté de la machine.The characteristics of the machine according to the invention, which advantageously replaces the tiring hand brushing used up to now for this need, will be clearly understood on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment and in view of the drawing in which
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the machine shown diagrammatically, and
Figure 2 is a side view of the machine.

Dans ces figures, la référence 1 désigne le bati de la machine, de forme parallélépipédique, comprenant une partie supérieure 2, avançant vers le poste de l'utilisateur, parallèle à une table de travail 3. I1 convient de signaler que, sur le bord antérieur de la partie supérieure 2, est monté un dispositif de brossage 4, sur des coussinets permettant son démontage rapide, ceci étant prévu,aussi bien pour inverser la position de la brosse et de ce fait la position des soies du dispositif quand ces soies sont détériorées par un usage prolongé dans un sens de rotation, que pour changer ladite brosse. In these figures, the reference 1 designates the frame of the machine, of rectangular shape, comprising an upper part 2, advancing towards the user's position, parallel to a work table 3. It should be noted that on the edge front of the upper part 2, is mounted a brushing device 4, on pads allowing its rapid disassembly, this being provided, both to reverse the position of the brush and therefore the position of the bristles of the device when these bristles are deteriorated by prolonged use in a direction of rotation, only to change said brush.

La brosse 4, à l'exception de sa partie inférieure ou zone de brossage, est enfermée dans un carter 5 proche de la brosse pour empêcher l'enroulement d'un fil du vetement, cette circonstance étant imprévésible mais possible, cas auquel le volet supérieur 6 du caisson, qui est articulé pour pouvoir retirer le vêtement qui serait ainsi enroulé, se soulève, déterminant l'arrêt du moteur électrique 9 qui, au moyen de la courroie 8 protégée par le carter 9, fait tourner la brosse. The brush 4, with the exception of its lower part or brushing area, is enclosed in a casing 5 close to the brush to prevent the winding of a thread of the garment, this circumstance being unpredictable but possible, in which case the flap upper 6 of the box, which is articulated in order to be able to remove the garment which would thus be wound up, is raised, determining the stopping of the electric motor 9 which, by means of the belt 8 protected by the casing 9, rotates the brush.

A la partie supérieure et à proximité de la brosse, et sur toute la largeur de sa partie postérieure, est située l'embouchure 10 d'un entonnoir ll qui canalise l'air aspiré par l'aspirateur 12 dont la fonction est d'extraire les salissures retirées par la brosse et les poil s éventuellement détachés pendant le brossage, de manière à ne pas avoir d'effet nocif sur l'ambiance où s'effectue le travail, non plus que sur le moteur électrique et le mécanisme de transmission
La référence 13 désigne la platine incurvée ou support sur lequel on place le vertement à brosser, dont la longueur est la meme que celle de la brosse sous laquelle il est placé, et qui est soutenue par un bras vertical 14 se déplaçant télescopiquement à l'intérieur dtun conduit tubulaire vertical extérieur 15, à la partie inférieure duquel est fixée, reposant sur un levier articulé 16, une partie élargie 17 sur laquelle l'utilisateur exerce une pression avec le pied en direction du bas, mouvement gracie auquel il peut, à volonté, soulever la platine de brossage en réglant l'intensité ou la légérité de la pression qu'il estime nécessaire sur le vêtement disposé de façon appropriée sur la platine, et qui est soumis à l'action de la brosse rotative, l'utilisateur pouvant ainsi manoeuvrer avec le pied la platine du dispositif de brossage selon ses désirs.At the upper part and near the brush, and over the entire width of its rear part, is located the mouth 10 of a funnel ll which channels the air sucked by the vacuum cleaner 12 whose function is to extract the dirt removed by the brush and the bristles possibly detached during brushing, so as not to have any harmful effect on the atmosphere where the work is carried out, any more than on the electric motor and the transmission mechanism
The reference 13 designates the curved plate or support on which the vertically to be brushed is placed, the length of which is the same as that of the brush under which it is placed, and which is supported by a vertical arm 14 moving telescopically to the inside a vertical outside tubular conduit 15, to the lower part of which is fixed, resting on an articulated lever 16, an enlarged part 17 on which the user exerts a pressure with the foot towards the bottom, graceful movement to which he can, at will, lift the brushing plate by adjusting the intensity or the lightness of the pressure that he considers necessary on the garment appropriately placed on the plate, and which is subjected to the action of the rotating brush, the user thus being able to maneuver with the foot the plate of the brushing device according to his wishes.

La référence 18 désigne la paroi séparant l'endroit où s'effectue le brossage d'un compartiment postérieur de la machine, qui non seulement contient le moteur électrique, mais loge également un dispositif collecteur des salissures et des poils aspirés par l'aspirateur. The reference 18 designates the wall separating the place where brushing takes place of a rear compartment of the machine, which not only contains the electric motor, but also houses a device for collecting dirt and hair sucked up by the vacuum cleaner.

La machine comporte un petit tableau de commande pour la mise en marche ou l'arrevt du moteur électrique, pour faire varier la vitesse de rotation de la brosse, et pour commander d'autres fonctions telles que l'éclairage etc... The machine has a small control panel for starting or stopping the electric motor, for varying the speed of rotation of the brush, and for controlling other functions such as lighting, etc.

La référence 19 désigne la table entourant la machine et faisant fonction de surface auxiliaire. Reference 19 designates the table surrounding the machine and acting as an auxiliary surface.
