Abstract

A process for manufacturing a roller blind includes cutting a roller blind tube to a desired length and mounting end fittings at each end of the tube. At a cutting table 26 the tube is used for measuring an associated desired length of fabric drawn from a web across the cutting table. A cutter 27 moves across the table on a carriage movable on a rail 29 for cutting the fabric from the web. A measuring arm 35 is mounted on a side block 36 which engages a track 37 and moves perpendicular to the cutter 27. After aligning the tube with the fabric on the table, the fabric is attached to the tube and rolled up on the tube. A hem including a batten receiving pocket is formed at a free lower end of the fabric and a batten is inserted into the pocket (Figures 12-15).

Referring to the drawings and initially to Fig. 1 thereof, there is illustrated a roller blind according to the invention indicated generally by the reference numeral 1. The roller blind 1 has a thin walled metal roller blind tube 2 with end fittings 3, 4 at each end for rotatably mounting the roller blind tube 2 on a support in use. A blind panel 5 of any suitable fabric is wound up on the roller blind tube 2 and can be pulled downwardly therefrom as shown in the drawing. A batten 6 is mounted in a pocket 7 at a lower end of the panel 5. A hem 8 extends downwardly from the panel 5 at a lower end of the panel 5. Any suitable decorative finish may be provided for the hem panel 8.
Castellations are shown in the hem panel 8 in the drawing by way of example. Also a decorative wooden pole 9 is inserted through a looped lower end of the hem panel 8.
Refemng now in particular to Figs. 2 to 15, a process for manufacturing a roller blind according to the invention will be described. At a tube forming station 20 a roller blind tube is cut to a preset desirable length arid end fittings 3, 4 are mounted at each end of the roller blind tube. The roller blind tube 2 is then delivered to a cutting station 25 having a cutting table indicated generally by the reference numeral 26.
The cutting table 26 has a cutter 27 located at a first edge 28 of the table 26. The cutter 27 is mounted on a carriage which is movable along a rail 29 extending along said first edge 28 of the table 26 for cutting fabric on the table 26. This rail 29 is mounted at each end on rams 30 which are operable to vertically move the rail 29 for clamping cloth against the table 26 while the cutter 27 moves along the rail to cut the fabric.
A measuring arm 35 Is mounted on a slide block 36 which engages a track 37 at a second edge 38 of the table 26 for movement of the measuring arm 35 in a direction perpendicular to the cutter 27. The measuring arm 35 projects across the table 26 parallel to the cutter support rail 29 and is adjustably spaced apart therefrom. By sliding the slide block 36 along the track 37 the measuring arm 35 can be positioned at any desired distance from the cutter.
The measuring arm is located at the desired distance from the cutter 27 by engaging the roller blind tube 2 between a fixed mounting V-block 40 adjacent the rail 29 and cutter 27 and a movable mounting V-block 41 on the slide block 36 for the measuring arm 35. The end fittings 3, 4 engage against end stop plates at each end of the V-blocks 40, 41 to correctly position the measuring arm 35.
A fabric web is led beneath the cutter rail 29 and across the table 26 engaging a leading edge of the fabric web with a straight edge 45 at a side of the measuring arm facing the rail 29. The rams 30 are operated to lower the rail 29 to clamp the fabric against the table 26. The cutter 27 is then moved along the rail 29 for cutting away a fabric piece of a desired width from the fabric web.
After releasing the rail 29 by extending the rams 30 to lift the rail 29 away from the table 26, the fabric piece may optionally be swivelled through 900 for cutting the fabnc piece again with the cutter 27 to a desired length.
Next the fabric piece is positioned lengthwise across the table parallel to the measuring arm 35 with a top edge of the fabric against the inside edge 39 of the track 37 and with one side edge of the fabric piece abutting the straight edge 45 of the measuring arm 35. The roller blind tube 2 has a strip of double-sided adhesive tape extending axially along an exterior of the tube 2. A peel-away protective sheet torn away from the adhesive tape and the roller blind tube 2 is then engaged with a top edge of the fabric piece. To correctly position the roller blind tube 2 with the fabric piece, a complementary positioning guide 50 is provided at an inner end of the measunng arm 35 for aligning the roller blind tube 2 with the top end of the fabric piece.
With reference in particular to Fig. 5 a slot 51 is provided at an inner end of the measuring arm 35. A hinged flap 52 on top of the measuring arm 35 folds downwardly over the slot 51 as shown in Fig. 5. With the flap 52 in the down position, the end of the roller blind tube 2 engages against the flap 52. With the flap 52 raised the end of the roller blind tube, and in particular the mount on the end fitting 3, 4 can fit into the slot 51. This arrangement accommodates different end fittings 3, 4 such as are shown in Figs. 6 to 9. A first end fitting is shown in Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 and a second end fitting is shown in Figs. 8 and 9.
Referring now to Figs. 10 and 11, a hemming table indicated generally by the reference numeral 60 is shown. This has a support surface 61 with a raised end stop wall 62 along one side of the support surface 61. A plurality of juxtaposed steel strips 63, 64, 65, 66 are mounted in the support surface 61 parallel to the end stop wall 62 and spaced away from the end stop wall by a preset distance. A hem panel 68 of t overlapping leaves of material connected at their bottom end is mounted on the table with a bottom end 69 of the hem panel 68 against the end stop wall 62. An upper end 70 of the hem panel 68 is positioned over a lower end 71 of the panel 5 of fabric material on the roller blind tube 2. The steel strips 63, 64, 65, 66 are used as a guide. The upper end 70 of the hem panel 68 is clamped against the lower end 71 of the fabric panel 5 by means of magnets 73 which cooperate with the steel strips 63, 64, 65, 66. The upper end 70 of the hem panel 68 is then taped to the lower end 71 of the panel 5 of fabric with adhesive tape. After removing the magnets and delivering the blind assembly to a sewing station, t parallel spaced- apart lines of stitching 76, 77 (Fig. 1) are made across the upper end of the hem panel 68 for joining the upper end 70 of the hem panel 68 to the lower end 71 of the fabric panel 5 and forming the batten retaining pocket 7 between the lines of stitching 76, 77.
Referring to Figs. 12 and 13 showing a hem panel 68 formed by folding up a flap 80 of material at a bottom of the fabric panel 5. This is then fixed temporarily with adhesive tape 81 to the fabric panel 5. Intermediate the ends of the flap 80 an adhesive strip 83 sticks an intermediate portion of the flap 80 to the panel 5. The adhesive tape 81 is removed during the stitching. The stitching at the free end of the flap 80 forms the batten receMng pocket 7.
Figs. 14 and 15 show an alternative construction. In this case a hem panel 68 is formed from a separate piece of folded material which is overlapped with a lower end of the panel 5 and stitched thereto by means of the stitching lines 76 and 77 as previously described. For stitching the roller blind tube 2 is supported on rollers in a trough adjacent stitching needles as the hem panel 68 is fed past stitching needles.
Various finishing operations such as insertion of the batten 6 in the batten pocket 7 are carried out and formation of the designs at a bottom end of the hem panel 68 and insertion of the pole 9. After inspection the roller blind I is packaged.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments hereinbefore described which may be varied in both construction and detail.
