Description

  The present invention relates to a processing technique for holding a fold of clothing such as trousers and skirts.

[Patent Document 1]
We are proposing crease processing materials to easily process folds such as trousers and skirts at home and dressmaking shops. In this processed material, a synthetic resin for bonding fibers is formed into a thread shape, and the thread-shaped synthetic resin is bonded to the central longitudinal position of the transparent adhesive tape.

  When this is used for trousers, the trousers must be creased with a steam iron and turned over. A crease processing material is affixed to a trough or groove formed by a crease on the outside of the inside-out trousers, and the thread-like synthetic resin of the crease-processing material is disposed at the bottom of the fold of the inside-out trousers. Put the trousers with creases on the front. Then, the crease processing material becomes the inside of the trousers and is sandwiched between both sides of the folds of the trousers to be folded in half.

  The trousers returned to the front are pressed with a steam iron at the crease part sandwiching the thread-like synthetic resin of the crease processing material. Then, the thread-like synthetic resin of the crease processing material is softened by heating and pressurization with a steam iron, filling the valleys of the folds of the trousers, and bonding the both sides of the folds. Thereafter, the trousers peel off the crease-treated adhesive tape from the inside of the crease portion. The adhesive tape is discarded.

[Patent Document 2]
A crease processing device for clothing such as pants is proposed. This device is equipped with a vacuum suction device that draws two rolls close to each other in parallel and sucks a trough formed between the two rolls, and rotationally drives both rolls in the forward or reverse direction. A device is provided. A heater is embedded in the outer surface of both rolls.

  When using this, the pants are creased and placed above both rolls. The crease part of the pants is inserted into a valley between both rolls, and the vacuum suction device is operated. Then, the crease | fold part of trousers is attracted | sucked by the trough part between both rolls, and is fixed to both rolls in the state opened in V shape. Next, thread-like resin for bonding is inserted into a fold portion opened in a V shape of the trousers. Then, the filamentous resin is sucked and fixed to the valley bottom of the fold portion of the pants.

  In a state where the V-shaped fold portion of the pants and the thread-like resin are fixed, the rotation driving device is rotated forward to slightly rotate both rolls in the opposite direction, and slightly lower the valley side outer surfaces of both rolls. Then, the crease part of the trousers is slightly lowered together with the thread-like resin at the bottom of the trousers, and is sandwiched and fixed between the two rolls. Pressurized by both rolls. Heaters on the outer surfaces of both rolls are located on both sides of the crease between the thread-like resins.

  When the crease part of the pants is fixed between both rolls and pressed, the operation of the vacuum suction device is stopped and the heaters of both rolls are activated. Then, the filamentous resin is heated and pressurized and melted to bond both side portions of the trouser fold. Thereafter, the heaters of both rolls are stopped, the vacuum suction device is actuated again, and the rotary drive device is reversely actuated to reverse both rolls. Then, the crease part to which the pants are bonded rises and is released from between both rolls. The vacuum suction device stops operating.

  In the technique of Patent Document 1, when producing a crease processing material, it takes time and labor to make a fiber-bonding synthetic resin such as trousers into a thread shape and to bond the thread-shaped synthetic resin to the central longitudinal position of the adhesive tape. In addition, when a crease processing material is attached to a fold valley such as trousers, it takes time and effort to dispose the thread-like synthetic resin of the crease processing material on the bottom of the fold valley. After bonding the crease part such as trousers, it takes time to remove the adhesive tape from the inside of the crease part and to dispose of it.

  Pants and skirt folds are longer than manual steam irons used in homes and dressmakers. It is difficult to hot-press the entire length of the fold portion sandwiching the thread-like synthetic resin with a uniform temperature and pressure by manual operation of the steam iron. The crease part of the trousers and skirt is difficult to be evenly bonded.

  In the technique of Patent Document 2, it takes time and effort to form a crease part bonding resin such as trousers into a thread shape.

  A fold portion such as trousers is easily twisted and bent easily. This is sucked into a valley between both rolls and fixed in a V-shaped open state. At this time, much trouble is required to arrange the folds of the pants at the V-shaped lower end. Moreover, the crease | fold part which pinched | interposed the thread-like resin is lowered | hung by the reverse rotation of both rolls, and is pinched | interposed between both rolls. At this time, the crease portion is not easily lowered uniformly over the entire length, and is not easily pressurized.

  Moreover, the crease | fold part of trousers is heated by the cylindrical surface heater along the outer surface of a roll in the pressurization state pinched | interposed between the cylindrical surfaces of a right-and-left roll. When the crease portion sandwiching the thread-like resin is subjected to hot-pressure processing, the pressure and temperature are different at the upper and lower positions. The crease part of the pants is less likely to be evenly bonded in the transverse direction. Both the left and right rolls are respectively supported in a state where both ends are supported, and the amount of deflection is large at the center portion and small at both end portions. When the crease part of the pants is sandwiched between both rolls, the pressure is low at the center part of the roll and high at both end parts. In the crease part of the trousers, it is difficult for the adhesion to be even in the crease direction.

  After all, with the techniques of Patent Documents 1 and 2, it is difficult to efficiently and efficiently perform the process of holding the folds of clothes such as trousers and skirts.

1) Fold garments such as trousers and skirts with creases inside out, and apply adhesive tape with an adhesive layer laminated to a synthetic resin film on the valley formed by the creases on the outside of the inside out garment, covering the creases, Return the inside-out clothing with adhesive tape to the front, fold the adhesive tape in half at the crease position of the clothing, and sandwich it between both sides of the crease of the clothing,

Further, the crease part of the garment is sandwiched between the planes of the lower surface of the upper processed part and the upper surface of the lower processed part, which are aligned in the vertical direction when being hot-pressed. Hot pressing is easy to be performed evenly. The crease portion is likely to be evenly bonded.

  Eventually, the process of holding the folds of clothing such as trousers and skirts is performed efficiently and efficiently.

[First example (see FIGS. 1 to 7)]
This example is a crease processing method for clothes such as pants using a single-sided adhesive tape.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the single-sided adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are formed by laminating an adhesive and an adhesive layer 2 on one side of a strip-shaped synthetic resin film 1. Examples of the synthetic resin film 1 include polypropylene, polyethylene, and vinyl chloride / vinyl acetate copolymer films. Examples of the adhesive 2 include acrylic and natural rubber adhesives such as an acrylic acid alkyl ester copolymer. The trousers 21 have creases 22 formed on the legs by an iron. The fabric of the trousers 21 is exemplified by a woven fabric of chemical fibers such as polyester or natural fibers such as wool.

  The trousers 21 with the fold line 22 are turned over as shown in FIGS. On the outside of the inside-out trousers 21, a valley is formed by the fold line 22. Adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are attached to the valleys of the fold line 22 along the fold line 22, and the fold line 22 is covered with the adhesive tapes 1 and 2. The adhesive layer 2 is adhered to the fabric of the trousers 21 while being adhered to the synthetic resin film 1. The reverse trousers 21 with the adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are returned to the table as shown in FIGS. The adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are vertically folded into two at the position of the fold line 22 and are sandwiched between both sides of the fold line 22 of the trouser 21.

  The fold 22 portion of the trouser 21 is pressed from both sides on the outside and heated from both sides or one side as shown by arrows in FIG. 5 with the adhesive tapes 1 and 2 sandwiched in two. Hot press processing. The adhesive layer 2 is softened or melted. In the fold 22 portion, the adhesive layer 2 flows into the fabric, and the fluff of the fabric is buried in the adhesive layer 2.

  Thereafter, the heating of the hot pressing is stopped. The fold line 22 portion of the pants 21 maintains a non-heated pressurized state. Cool naturally during that time. The adhesive layer 2 is bonded to the synthetic resin film 1 and is cured in a state of being intertwined with fabric eyes and fluff. The pressurization of hot pressing is also stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 6 or FIG. 7, the two-fold adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are firmly bonded to the back of the fold 22 portion of the trousers 21. The fold 22 portion of the trousers 21 is lined with two-fold adhesive tapes 1 and 2. My waist becomes stronger. A bi-fold cross-sectional shape is maintained. The crease 22 is difficult to disappear.

  Adhesive tapes 1 and 2 use a film that is difficult to weld, such as stretched polypropylene (OPP), on synthetic resin film 1, and the conditions such as temperature, pressure, and time of hot pressing are such that the films are not welded together. As shown in FIG. 6, the two-fold adhesive tapes 1 and 2 are not welded to the two side portions of the synthetic resin film 1 that are folded in half. On the contrary, the synthetic resin film 1 uses a film that is easy to weld, such as cast polypropylene (CPP), and the conditions such as temperature, pressure, and time of the hot pressing process are the conditions in which the films are welded together. As shown in FIG. 7, the two-folded adhesive tapes 1, 2 are welded to both sides of the synthetic resin film 1 that are folded in two. Thus, when the synthetic resin film 1 is welded in a double fold shape, the crease 22 portion of the trousers 21 becomes stronger than when the synthetic resin film 1 is not welded.

[Modification]
As the adhesive tapes 1 and 2, a single type of film is used for the synthetic resin film 1, but a composite film in which different types of films are laminated is used. For example, it is a composite film obtained by laminating a film having a strong adhesion with the adhesive layer 2 and a film that can be easily or hardly welded to each other.

[Second Example (see FIGS. 8 to 11)]
In this example, a double-sided adhesive tape is used instead of the single-sided adhesive tape in the crease processing method of the first example.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the double-sided adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are formed by laminating the adhesive layer 2 on one side of the belt-shaped synthetic resin film 1 and the other adhesive layer 3 on the other side. The adhesive layer 3 is covered with a release paper (not shown).

  The trousers 21 with the creases 22 attached to the legs are turned over as shown in FIG. Adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are attached to the valleys of the fold line 22 formed outside the inside-out trousers 21 with the adhesive layer 2 along the fold line 22, and the fold line 22 is covered with the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3. The adhesive layer 2 is adhered to the fabric of the trousers 21 while being adhered to the synthetic resin film 1. The release papers of the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are peeled off. The inside-out trousers 21 with the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are returned to the front. As shown in FIG. 10, the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are vertically folded into two at the position of the fold line 22, and are sandwiched between both side portions of the fold line 22 of the trouser 21.

  The fold 22 portion of the trouser 21 is pressed from both sides and heated from both sides or one side as indicated by arrows in FIG. 10 with the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 sandwiched in two. Hot press processing. The outer adhesive layer 2 adhered to the fabric of the trousers 21 is softened or melted. In the fold 22 portion of the trousers 21, the adhesive layer 2 flows into the fabric, and the fluff of the fabric is buried in the adhesive layer 2. Further, the inner adhesive layer 3 is softened or melted, and the both side portions of the fold are bonded. The adhesive layer 3 adheres to the synthetic resin film 1 while it adheres to itself.

  Thereafter, the heating of the hot pressing is stopped. The fold line 22 portion of the pants 21 maintains a non-heated pressurized state. Cool naturally during that time. The outer adhesive layer 2 is bonded to the synthetic resin film 1 and is cured in a state of being intertwined with fabric eyes and fluff. While the inner adhesive layer 3 is bonded to the synthetic resin film 1, it is cured in a state where both side portions of the fold are bonded. The pressurization of hot pressing is also stopped.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are firmly bonded to the back of the fold 22 portion of the trousers 21 in a state where the inner adhesive layer 3 is folded in two. The fold 22 portion of the trousers 21 is lined with adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 in which the inner adhesive layer 3 is bonded in a folded shape. My waist becomes stronger. A bi-fold cross-sectional shape is maintained.

As shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, the crease 22 with adhesive tape in the leg portion of the trouser 21 is disposed on the lower processing portion 70. When the other leg part of the trousers 21 covers the fold line 22 with the adhesive tape placed on the lower processing part 70, the leg part is withdrawn from the position. The clothing fixing mechanisms 67, 68, 69 are closed. The fold line 22 with the adhesive tape of the trousers 21 is held on the lower processed portion 70.

  Therefore, the lid 62 is closed. Then, the vacuum device is activated. In the vacuum chambers 61 and 62, the air in the vacuum chambers 61 and 62 is discharged together with the dust and mites in the vacuum chambers 61, 62, and is reduced in pressure and cleaned. Clean vacuum. In the trousers 21 in the vacuum chamber, dust, mites, and the like attached to the pants 21 are removed. It will be clean. The lid 62 is kept closed by the vacuum chamber being depressurized. Further, the air supply device is activated, and the upper processing portion 71 is lowered. As shown in FIG. 18, the fold line 22 with the adhesive tape of the trouser 21 is sandwiched between the upper surface of the lower processing portion 70 and the lower surface of the upper processing portion 71. Pressurized. Also, the heater is activated. Heat is generated from the upper surface of the lower processing portion 70. The crease 22 portion is heated. That is, the crease 22 portion between which the adhesive tape is folded in two is hot-pressed in a clean vacuum atmosphere in a clean state. The adhesive layers 2 and 3 are softened or melted. The adhesive layer 2 flows into the fabric and the fluff of the fabric is immersed. Moreover, when the double-sided adhesive tapes 1, 2, and 3 are used, the adhesive layer 3 is bonded to both sides of the fold.

  When the heating time set in the timer 76 elapses, the operation of the heater is stopped. Heating in the hot pressing is stopped, and a non-heated pressurizing state is maintained. Cool naturally during that time. Thereafter, when the vacuum time set in the timer 65 elapses, the operation of the vacuum device is stopped, and the vacuum chambers 61 and 62 return to the atmospheric pressure. Further, the lid 62 is opened. The operation of the air supply device stops, and the upper processing portion 71 rises. The pressurization of hot pressing is also stopped. The adhesive layers 2 and 3 are cured.

  After the lid 62 is opened, the clothing fixing mechanisms 67, 68, and 69 are opened. The trousers 21 on the clothes placing part 66 are taken out. The trousers 21 are clean. The fold 22 portion is lined with a bi-fold adhesive tape. The adhesive state of the adhesive tape does not include dust or mites. It is strong.

[Modification]
1) In the crease processing apparatus, the heating wire 75 of the heater is incorporated only in the lower processing portion 70 but is also incorporated in the upper processing portion 71. The crease 22 portion of the garment 21 is heated from both the upper and lower sides during the hot pressing process.
2) In the crease processing apparatus, human power is used to open and close the lid 62, but instead, the mechanical force of a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder piston mechanism or other lifting device is used.
3) The adhesive tape is applied to the crease 22 portion of the garment 21, but instead of this, an adhesive or a resin is attached in a band shape. For example, it is applied.
