Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to improvement of pile fabrics such as towels.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, there have been mainly two methods for applying designs and colors to pile fabrics such as towels. First, the first method is to dye a predetermined position of a thread in a desired color in advance before weaving and weave the towel by weaving such a thread. Next, the second method is that the pile is woven first, and then the woven fabric is dyed by a method called textile printing.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, none of the above methods was suitable for producing a small amount of product. For example, the first method requires that a large amount of yarn be set before manufacturing. In other words, it was necessary to set a large amount of thread one by one to make a small amount of product, which was time consuming and unrealistic. In the second method, the pile fabric is dyed by the same method as textile printing, which is the same as silk screen. For this reason, the cost per product would be enormous if it was not manufactured in large quantities, which was not worth the cost. For example, if we want to develop a sales method that aims to precisely meet the needs of consumers by diversifying the types, instead of producing small quantities of each type, there is no way to do it from the viewpoint of cost and labor. there were. In addition, as described above, a large number of products with the same pattern with few types are available, so that it is not possible to cope with the trend of consumers in recent years, which is favored to be differentiated from the products of others, while the above method is used. Conventional pile fabrics such as towels are designed to motivate customers to make purchases only with a design, and unless a novel design is adopted, the appearance is obsolete and is not attractive as a product. There was a limit naturally. The present invention is intended to solve the above problems.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 A pile woven fabric such as a towel according to the first invention of the present application has a cloth 1, a transferred portion 2 formed on the surface of the cloth 1, and a transferred portion 3 formed on the transferred portion 2. The transferred portion 2 is a flat ground portion such as a woven fabric without pile loops, a short pile, or a cut pile with short naps. The transfer section 3 is characterized in that the pattern is printed by thermal transfer using a transfer paper having a pattern copied by a copying machine. The pile woven fabric here includes cut pile woven fabric.

A pile fabric such as a towel according to a second aspect of the present invention is the pile fabric such as a towel according to the first aspect of the present invention, wherein the transferred portion 2 is a woven fabric without a pile loop or about 5 mm. It is a flat area with piles of the following heights or cut piles of hair with a length of about 5 mm or less. Then, on the surface of the fabric 1, the peripheral portion 4 of the transfer portion 2 of the flat surface on which the transfer portion 3 is provided is a woven fabric or a short pile or a pile of the flat surface without pile loops. It is characterized by being formed with a high pile or a cut pile with long fur, rather than a short soot pile.

[0006]

[Action]

 A pile fabric such as a towel according to the first invention of the present application is provided with a transfer target portion 2 suitable for performing thermal transfer, and a pattern is printed by thermal transfer using a transfer paper having a pattern copied by a copying machine. The thermal transfer part 3 is easily formed, and by providing the thermal transfer part 3 thus formed, it is possible to easily and inexpensively produce a small amount of a product having a desired design. it can.

The pile fabric such as the towel according to the second aspect of the present invention is not only the action of the pile fabric such as the towel according to the first aspect of the present application, but in particular, the transferred portion 2 is a fabric without pile loops. It is formed of a pile or the like having a height of about 5 mm or less, and such a portion 4 around the transferred portion 2 is higher in height or hair than the flat portion forming the transferred portion 2. Since it is formed by a pile or a cut pile having a long length, it has a shape like a frame in which the transfer section 3 is a part of a painting.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. One embodiment of the present invention is shown in FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4. FIG. 3 is an overall plan view of a towel according to the present invention before transfer of a design, and FIG. 1 is a schematic vertical sectional view of a main part thereof. FIG. 4 is an overall plan view of the finished towel according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a schematic vertical cross-sectional view of the essential parts thereof. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, a transferred portion 2 is formed on a surface of a cloth 1 of a towel according to the present invention. The transferred portion 2 is a woven fabric (plain weave) without pile loops, or a flat portion such as a short pile having a low height or a cut pile having a short pile. Unlike the transferred portion 2 as described above, reference numeral 5 in FIGS. 1 and 3 shows a portion of a normal towel cloth on which pile pile with long legs is raised.

The transfer part 3 is formed on the transfer target part 2 on the surface of the fabric 1 as described above. The transfer section 1 will be described. First, the transfer sheet 30 is separately prepared. The transfer paper 30 is formed of a heat-meltable sheet 30A and a release paper 30B provided on the back surface thereof. Then, a desired pattern can be copied on the surface of the heat-melting portion 30A by using an ordinary copying machine capable of copying on copy paper.

The transfer paper 30 shown in FIG. 1 is one after the above copying is made, and 30C in the drawing shows toner of the copying machine adhered to the surface of the heat melting sheet 30A by copying.

Then, by using an existing thermal transfer machine (not shown), a transfer paper 30 having the surface of the heat-fusible sheet 30A facing the transfer paper 30 and a release paper 30B on the back surface are provided on the transfer target portion 2 of the cloth 1. From the side that is pressed, press at the temperature required for transfer. After the transfer has a gap, the release paper 30B is peeled off to complete the process.

By the transfer, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, a transfer portion 3 having a pattern is formed on the transferred portion 2. In this way, the toner having the design is sandwiched between the heat-fusible sheet 30A and the fabric 1 and completed. As for the design, as long as it can be copied onto the transfer paper 30 by a copying machine, any design can be used as a print target. Further, since the performance of the copying machine has been remarkably improved recently, it is possible to transfer a fine pattern such as a photograph, and a unique visual effect can be obtained after printing.

When a desired pattern is copied onto a transfer sheet by a copying machine, it is not necessary to consider it when adopting a pattern that does not cause a problem even when the right and left parts are replaced as shown in the mirror surface. In the case of including the above, it is necessary to avoid the left-right reversal due to the transfer. In this case, a desired pattern is copied onto the transfer paper 30 in advance by a copying machine capable of performing the left-right reversal copying.

For example, when a color copy transfer paper “PHOTO-TRANS” (trademark: manufactured by Yoshikawa Kako Co., Ltd.) is used as the transfer paper 30, a Canon CLC-200 (trade name) manufactured by Canon Inc. or a copy machine is used. It is desirable to perform duplication using a copying machine having another reverse copying function. Also, a jet ink type copying machine cannot be used. When copying using the Canon CLC-200, if the color is set lighter, good transfer can be performed. When coloring is not required, a monochrome copying machine can be used unlike the above.

When the above-mentioned color copy transfer paper “PHOTO-TRANS” is used as the transfer paper 30, the transfer to the transferred portion 2 is about 180 degrees Celsius for about 30 seconds or more, or about 190 degrees Celsius for about 15 seconds. It is desirable to perform the pressing for at least 2 seconds, or at approximately 200 degrees Celsius for approximately 5 seconds or more. Further, in this case, it is desirable that the pressing is performed strongly. The release paper 30B is peeled off from the hot melt sheet 30A while it is hot. If it is cooled and then peeled, the peel becomes heavy, and if the peel becomes so heavy, the product has poor wash fastness. Therefore, when it has cooled down, it is desirable to press it again and then peel it off. Further, after peeling, if a silicone paper or the like is applied to the transfer portion 3 and pressed again for about 4 to 5 seconds, the finish becomes more excellent. However, since the gloss of the transfer portion 3 differs depending on the silicon paper used, this point needs to be noted. The color may fade due to washing, in which case, by applying a thin cloth to the transfer part 3 and ironing at a low temperature, it is possible to recover the color close to the original color. Moreover, when using this "PHOTO-TRANS" as the transfer paper 30, it is necessary to be careful to block out moisture during storage. If it contains moisture, the image will not be copied properly.

The cloth 1 has a transfer portion 2 formed on the surface of the cloth 1, and a transfer portion 3 formed on the transfer portion 2. The transferred portion 2 is a flat portion such as a short pile or a cut pile with short fluff. The transfer section 3 is a portion on which a design is printed by thermal transfer using a transfer paper having a design copied by a copying machine.

In FIGS. 3 and 4, the transferred portion 2 has a rectangular shape, but the shape is not limited to such a shape, and it may be a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, another curved line, or a straight line. The shape may be any of the shapes formed by or the combination thereof. In particular, the planar shape (outline) of the transferred portion 2 may be a shape corresponding to the outline of the transferred portion 3 (presented pattern), but it has a sufficient width and shape to include the transferred portion 3. In that case, the planar shape of the transferred portion 2 is not limited to that corresponding to the contour of the transfer portion 3. Further, in the above-described embodiment, the transferred portion 2 is a specially formed portion for forming the transfer portion 3. However, for example, as shown in FIG. It is also possible to use the flat part formed from the beginning as the transferred parts 2 and 2. Further, although not shown in the drawing, if a woven fabric that does not have a raised portion with long fluffs is used as the cloth 1, the entire surface of the cloth 1 becomes the transferred portion 2, and the cloth 1 can be applied to any part of the cloth. It is possible to form the transfer portion 3 over the entire area 1.

Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a substantially rectangular transferred portion 2 is formed in the center of the cloth provided with the towel cloth portion 5 having the whole long and high pile or the cut pile with long hair. By doing so, that is, by making the part 4 around the transferred part 2 a normal towel cloth part 5 raised by a pile having a high loop or a cut pile with long hair, the transferred part 2 is transferred to the transferred part 2. When the transfer portion 3 is formed by the same method as that of the above-described embodiment (FIG. 7), the towel cloth portion 4 around the transfer portion 3 has a visual effect like a frame and the decorativeness is remarkably enhanced. Specifically, the transferred portion 2 is formed as a plain fabric portion having a woven fabric without a pile loop, a pile having a height of about 5 mm or less, or a cut pile of hair and legs having a length of about 5 mm or less. On the surface of the cloth 1, the peripheral portion 4 of the transfer portion 2 of the above-mentioned flat surface on which the transfer portion 3 is provided is formed by a cloth without a pile loop forming the above-mentioned flat surface or a short pile or a short pile foot pile. Are also made of high pile or long pile pile.
