Description

  The present invention relates to a costume for a doll called a doll, a figure, or the like, and a manufacturing method thereof.

  There is a field of hobbies where you can enjoy wearing various costumes on dolls with a size of about 10 to 70 cm, called dolls and figures. There are a wide variety of designs for dolls such as those imitating human clothing and those inspired by movies and anime.

  Traditionally, doll costumes have been manufactured by cutting and sewing a generally available fabric according to a pattern matched to the size of the doll. However, when using patterned fabrics, the size of the costume and the size of the pattern often do not balance, and cutting the fabric of general width using the pattern of the costume for dolls is wasteful of the fabric. Sometimes it became.

  For such a problem, for example, in Patent Document 1, a torsion lace machine equipped with a jacquard device is used to assemble an assembly according to the shape of the doll, or a thick knitted fabric that can be worn on the doll. A manufacturing method of a doll-like assembly place (lace place) costume that creates and continuously binds and heat-cuts the continuous binding portion is disclosed. According to the manufacturing method of Patent Document 1, waste of fabric does not occur, but what can be manufactured is limited to a lace place, and it is difficult to express an arbitrary pattern using a large number of colors.

  On the other hand, in Japanese forms such as dolls, fine pattern multicolor fabrics manufactured for dolls from the beginning by applying obi fabric manufacturing technology may be used (Patent Document 2). However, since such a woven fabric is manufactured by a very complicated and handicraft process represented by Nishijin weaving, the manufacturing efficiency is low and it has to be expensive.

  From such a background, when a fine pattern or a multicolored pattern is expressed in a costume for a doll, the current situation is to use a printed pattern or embroidery. However, the printed pattern is less than the woven pattern in terms of texture. In the case of embroidery, there is a limit to the fineness of the pattern that can be expressed, and the swell of the embroidery thread and the unevenness of the fabric due to embroidery may be noticeable. Furthermore, when an embroidery process is included, an increase in manufacturing cost cannot be avoided.

JP 2002-166061 A No. 6-17492

  In view of the above circumstances, according to the present invention, a pattern of an arbitrary size corresponding to the size of a doll is expressed with a texture and naturalness comparable to human clothes, and there is little waste of fabric and at an appropriate cost. An object of the present invention is to provide a doll costume that can be manufactured and a method for manufacturing such a doll costume.

  The inventors of the present invention have repeatedly studied to solve the above-mentioned problems, and have been conceived to apply precision fabrics that have been used in the manufacture of woven names and woven patches as materials for doll costumes. According to the research, it was found that an arbitrary pattern suitable for the size of the doll can be woven on the ground structure. Also, by fusing the peripheral parts of the parts that make up the costume, fraying of the fabric is suppressed, the unevenness of the fabric after sewing is reduced, and furthermore, it is easy to fray and can be avoided in doll costumes. The inventors have found that the types of fabrics and patterns that have been used can be used as costumes for dolls, and have arrived at the present invention.

  Furthermore, in the doll costume that is tailored by combining a plurality of parts, the inventors use a fabric that weaves a pattern on the ground structure in advance so that the pattern is placed at an appropriate position when tailored. The amount of fabric that is wasted in the cutting process can be greatly reduced, and the decorations that were previously applied after the lace and ribbon can be expressed with a woven pattern, so the number of parts that make up the costume can be reduced. As a result, the present invention has been conceived.

That is, the present invention has the following configuration.
[1] A doll costume comprising at least a part of a woven fabric in which a pattern is woven on a ground structure and a peripheral edge is melted.
[2] The ground texture is a ground texture composed of plain weave, twill weave, satin weaving, or a combination thereof, and the pattern is formed by inserting a weft having a color and / or thickness different from that of the ground texture. The doll costume according to [1], which is a continuous pattern or a point pattern woven on the tissue.
[3] A doll costume including a plurality of parts of a woven fabric in which a pattern is woven on a ground structure and a peripheral edge is melted, and the plurality of parts are joined to each other. The costume for dolls according to [1] or [2], wherein a pattern is woven on the ground structure so as to be appropriately arranged in a state tailored as a costume.
[4] The doll costume according to any one of [1] to [3], which is a doll dress, a dress, a skirt, or an upper garment.

[5] A step of weaving a fabric having a pattern woven on a ground texture using a high-speed loom, passing the fabric through a laser processing machine, and cutting the fabric by laser cutting according to prestored contour data The method for manufacturing a doll costume according to any one of [1] to [4], including a step of obtaining costume parts and a step of joining a plurality of costume parts to tailor a costume.
[6] The method for manufacturing a doll costume according to [5], wherein the high-speed loom is a rapier loom, an air jet loom, or a projector loom combined with a jacquard loom.
[7] The method for manufacturing a doll costume according to [5] or [6], wherein the joining is stitching and / or adhesion.

  According to the present invention, for a doll having a texture and naturalness comparable to human clothes by tailoring the doll costume using parts woven on the ground structure with an arbitrary pattern matching the size of the doll. Costumes are provided. In addition, the doll costume of the present invention does not fray the edges of the fabric because the edges of the parts constituting the costume are fused. As a result, it is possible to use a kind of woven fabric that was difficult to use in the past as fraying easily, and it is also possible to use parts with small and complicated curves, Costumes for dolls with unconventional textures and lines are provided.

  Furthermore, in the manufacturing method of the costume of the present invention, the pattern is woven according to the arrangement of the pattern in the tailored state, so that it is not necessary to cut the cloth according to the pattern on the cloth as in the prior art. Waste can be greatly reduced, and decorations such as laces and ribbons can be expressed in woven patterns, making it possible to reduce the number of parts that make up costumes and manufacturing doll costumes at an advantageous cost. can do.

(Doll costume)
FIG. 1 shows the front of a dress 1 which is an example of a doll costume of the present invention. Dress 1 is a so-called 1/3 size costume for a figure, and the length from the shoulder to the hem is about 22 cm. The entire dress 1 is made of a fabric having a gloss and tension of about 170 to 400 g / m ² , and a combination of parts woven with continuous patterns, point patterns, borders, etc. on the ground structure. Become. The fabric consists of three types of organization: satin weave, plain weave and twill weave using a jacquard loom.

  The embodiment of FIG. 1 is a figure costume of 1/3 size, but the figure size to which the doll costume of the present invention is applied is not particularly limited, and for example, an arbitrary size such as 1/10 to 1/3. You can target figures. The size of the costume is also arbitrary. For example, the dress has a length of about 10 cm to 60 cm, and the skirt has a skirt length of about 5 cm to 40 cm, but is not limited to these ranges.

  In FIG. 1, a front body 2, a right side front body 3, a left side front body 4, and left and right sleeves 5 of the dress 1 can be seen. FIG. 2 shows the back of the dress 1, in addition to the sleeve 5, the left side back body 6, the left back body 7, the right back body 8, and the right side back body 9 can be seen. That is, the dress 1 includes seven body parts and one sleeve part on each side. The finished product of the dress 1 further includes parts such as a collar and a detachable fastener.

  FIG. 3 shows the side of the dress 1. In FIG. 3, a front body 2, a left side front body 4, a sleeve 5, a left side back body 6, and a left back body 7 can be seen. The body and skirt of the dress 1 have natural lines due to the fabric tension.

  The ground structure of the dress 1 includes polyester fiber yarn as a main material. By using a structure containing polyester fiber yarns, it becomes possible to melt the film by laser cutting, ultrasonic cutting, heat cutting, or the like. In addition, fusing means giving high energy to the cutting position of the fabric and means cutting by locally dissolving the fabric, and in the cut portion of the fabric, the fibers in the cross section are fused together, Fraying is prevented. The material of the ground structure of the dress 1 is not particularly limited as long as it can be melted, and is composed of polyester fiber yarn, nylon fiber yarn, acrylic fiber yarn, combinations thereof, and materials including at least a part thereof. can do. For example, what contains 90-100% of polyester fiber yarn is preferable.

  The woven fabric of the dress 1 is not particularly limited, and other than a twill weave, a plain weave, satin weave, or a combination organization thereof, or an arbitrary organization can be used. According to the present invention, the type of fabric that has been difficult to use as a doll costume in the past due to fraying easily can be used as a doll costume because it becomes easy to handle by fusing the fabric. Can be manufactured automatically.

  The entire inside of the dress 1 is provided with a lining having substantially the same color as the ground structure. By attaching the lining, effects such as retention of the dress shape and protection of the fabric can be obtained, but the presence or absence of the lining is not particularly limited.

  The seven body parts and one sleeve part on each side of the dress 1 are parts of a woven fabric in which a pattern is woven on the ground structure and the periphery is melted. The costumes are not limited to those in which all parts have such a configuration. That is, the present invention relates to a woven fabric part in which a pattern is woven on the ground structure and the peripheral edge is melted, and other components (for example, plain fabric, printed fabric, embroidery fabric, lace fabric, knitted fabric, It also includes doll costumes that are combined with parts that are not melted.

  The costumes for dolls of the present invention are not limited to dresses, and can be dresses, skirts, pants, jackets such as jackets and blouses, and any other type of costumes.

  FIG. 4 shows the front body 2 of the dress 1 in the state of the cut parts before the doll costume is tailored. The left figure is the front side of the front body 2, and the right figure is the back side. On the surface of the front body 2, a point pattern 11, 12, which is expressed by inserting a weft having a color and / or thickness different from that of the ground structure into the ground structure, represents one pattern in succession. A continuous pattern 13, a border 14, and a switching unit 15 having a different color from the ground structure are woven out. The point pattern 12 represents a ground pattern by changing the texture. Further, a sewing margin 16 having a width of about 5 mm is provided on the entire periphery of the part.

  FIG. 5 shows the left front side body 4 of the dress 1 in the state of the cut parts before the doll costume is prepared. The left figure is the front side of the left front side body 4, and the right figure is the back side. The left front side body 4 is woven with a continuous pattern 13 and a continuous pattern 17 of a lace pattern that are continuous with the pattern of the front body 2 or the left rear side body 6 when tailored. A sewing margin 16 having a width of about 5 mm is provided around the entire periphery of the part. Further, a mark line 18 indicating the boundary between the pattern and the sewing margin is woven out. The mark line 18 does not appear on the surface when completed, and improves convenience during manufacture. Further, the armhole 19 is a portion corresponding to the side of the doll and has a line with a large curvature, but a precise curve is cut out without fraying by laser cutting.

  As is clear from FIG. 5 and other figures, each part has a pattern only on the part that appears on the surface when it is tailored as a costume. This reduces weft lifting on the back side of the fabric, suppresses fraying of the fabric when fusing parts from the fabric and when sewing, and is less likely to cause fraying and fraying even in a finished outfit. Easy to handle.

  FIG. 6 shows the left rear side body 6 of the dress 1 in the state of the cut parts before the doll costume is prepared, the left figure is the front surface of the left rear side body 6, and the right figure is the back side. FIG. 7 shows the left rear body 7 of the dress 1 which is the state of the cut parts in the same stage before making the doll costume, the left figure is the front surface of the left front body 7, and the right figure is the back side.

  FIG. 8 shows the sleeve 5 of the dress 1 in the state of the cut parts before the doll costume is prepared, the left figure is the surface of the sleeve 5, and the right figure is the back side. A point pattern 11 and a continuous pattern 13 that circulates around the sleeve are woven out on the sleeve 5. The continuous pattern 13 represents a decorative string-like pattern (13a) and a tape-like pattern (13b) by changing the texture. According to the present invention, these decorations can be expressed by a woven pattern without retrofitting a decorative string or a tape.

(Manufacturing method for doll costumes)
The method for producing the doll costume of the present invention is not particularly limited, but preferably a step of weaving a fabric having a pattern woven on the ground structure using a high-speed loom (hereinafter referred to as weaving). Process may be referred to as a process), the cloth is passed through a laser processing machine, and in accordance with pre-stored contour data, the cloth is melted by laser cutting to obtain a clothing part (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a melting process), and , A manufacturing method including a step of joining a plurality of costume parts to tailor a costume (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as a tailoring step).

  In the weaving process, a rapier loom, an air jet loom, or a projectile loom combined with a jacquard loom can be preferably used as the high speed loom. With these looms, fabrics with patterns of any color and size can be woven out. The width of the fabric is not particularly limited, but can be 50 to 2600 mm, and preferably 50 to 1500 mm. On the fabric to be woven, it is also preferable that a pattern indicating each part and a line indicating a part outline including a seam allowance are indicated by a change in the texture together with a pattern represented by each part. The pitch of one handle can be set to 50 to 500 mm, for example.

  The production method of the present invention is characterized in that, in the weaving process, a fabric in which the shape of the parts constituting the doll costume and the pattern arranged on each part is designed in advance is created. As a result, it becomes possible to attach a pattern of an arbitrary size corresponding to the size of the doll, and at the same time, it is possible to reduce the waste of the fabric by weaving the fabric in advance of cutting out the parts. .

  The pattern to be woven is not particularly limited, but it is often a small and precise pattern compared to a human costume fabric in order to have a pattern that matches the size of the doll. As a specific technique for weaving a precise pattern, a known technique can be used, and is not particularly limited. For example, by using a warp or weft thinner than that used for human clothes, Or we can weave patterns. According to the manufacturing method of the present invention, a doll costume having a precise woven pattern can be manufactured at a reasonable and practical cost.

The shape, color, and number of colors of the pattern are not particularly limited. The pattern may be a decorative pattern such as a lace pattern, a flower pattern, or a geometric pattern, or an accessory such as a belt or emblem expressed by a woven pattern. Moreover, the change of the color of clothes may be represented by weaving. The color of the pattern may be single color or multicolor, but since the pattern is represented by the insertion of the weft, the insertion of the weft increases when the pattern becomes multicolor, and the thickness may be greater than the ground texture. It is also preferable to change the three-dimensional feeling and texture of the pattern by changing the thickness of the weft inserted for weaving the pattern. Note that the number of weft threads inserted into one fabric may have an upper limit such as 2 colors, 4 colors, 6 colors, etc., but a pattern with a large number of colors can be formed by combining parts and fabrics. Can do.
Furthermore, it is also preferable to weave a mark or a symbol on a portion of the fabric that does not appear outside after tailoring for the purpose of facilitating the work in the tailoring process or for the purpose of process control.

  FIG. 9 shows a part of the fabric 20 woven in the weaving process. A part of the cloth shown in FIG. 9 is a group of parts constituting one costume. FIG. 10 shows a continuous fabric in which the group of parts shown in FIG. 9 is repeatedly woven. When using a loom for narrow woven fabric, as shown in the left figure of FIG. 10, it may be a fabric having a width of about 1 garment (about 35 cm in the illustrated case). When used, as shown in the right side of FIG. 10, a cloth having a width (about 140 cm in the illustrated example) in which a plurality of clothes are arranged in the width direction may be used.

As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, in the manufacturing method of the present invention, instead of cutting the fabric according to the pattern, the fabric design is performed by arranging the outline of the part and the pattern represented in each part in advance. Therefore, the waste of the fabric can be greatly reduced.
In the examples of FIGS. 9 and 10, the parts that make up one outfit are woven out, and the continuous fabric is woven repeatedly, but the same parts are repeatedly woven out continuously. The woven fabric may be woven.

  Subsequently, the fabric obtained in the weaving process is subjected to a fusing process. The fusing can be performed by a known method such as laser cutting, ultrasonic cutting, heat cutting or the like, and is not particularly limited, but laser cutting is preferable. In the case of laser cutting, for example, a laser processing machine equipped with a carbon dioxide laser or a YAG laser can be used. The laser processing machine is connected to a control computer, and fusing is performed according to the contour data of each part stored in advance in the control computer. Specific control and laser processing can be performed according to known methods or conditions, or by partially modifying them.

  The fabric obtained in the weaving process may be continuously passed through a laser processing machine from the weaving process, or a preliminary cutting process (for example, a wide woven fabric between the weaving process and the fusing process). May be divided into the width of one costume, etc.) or an intermediate process such as an arrangement process.

  The parts obtained by the fusing process are joined together and tailored as doll costumes. Joining can be performed by any known method, for example, sewing or bonding, and it is also preferable to combine sewing and bonding. In the tailoring process, it is also possible to attach a lining and attach accessories such as buttons and fasteners. The attachment of the lining and accessories may be performed as a separate process from the tailoring process.

  Each part used in the manufacturing method of the present invention has good handleability because the edges are melted and fraying is less likely to occur. Therefore, sewing becomes easy, and even a costume having a complicated pattern can be efficiently manufactured. In addition, because of the small size of doll costumes, there is a large individual difference among those who sew even parts that do not feel difficult to sew in human clothing, such as when ribbon-like borders are expressed by tapping ribbons. However, according to the present invention, it is possible to reduce such a difference between products and to provide a uniform costume.
