Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a device for correcting the collar of clothing in a pre-processing machine that shapes clothing such as yukatas and gowns and sends them to the next process.

(Prior Art) A device called a roll ironer is used to wash and iron clothing such as yukatas, but the clothing placed into the device must be shaped into a predetermined shape beforehand. Must be. However, in the past, everything except ironing and folding was not mechanized.

(Technical Issues) Therefore, the pre-processing up to the stage of putting the clothes into the processing equipment as described above has traditionally relied entirely on manual labor, requiring a large amount of manpower, and due to differences in skill. There was a problem that caused the product to fail.

Therefore, in order to solve the above problem, the inventor of the present invention
We have developed a pre-processing machine that attaches clothing with the simple task of hanging it on a hanger, automatically shapes it, and sends it to the next process, and we have already applied for some applications.

The present invention is used in such a clothing pre-processing machine, and its purpose is to provide a clothing pre-processing machine that can adjust the collar of clothing when the clothing has been shaped to a certain extent and is sent to the next process using the conveyance mechanism. An object of the present invention is to provide a collar correction device.

(Technical Means) The purpose is to form clothing into a predetermined shape and send it to the next process by a transport mechanism, in a pre-processing machine, in which a rotatable roll shaft 11 provided on a body above the transport mechanism is used. , a belt 16 for pinching the collar of clothing between the conveyor surface 3 and the conveyor surface 3 is provided.
It is characterized by being configured to move in the same direction at a higher speed than the moving speed of the clothing so as to rub the front side of the collar of the upper clothing from below to above, and to be able to approach and move away from the transport surface 3. This is achieved by a collar correction device that

(Function) Sleeves, hems, etc. are shaped while the garment is attached to the pretreatment machine. Unlike other parts, the collar is thick and tends to stand up from the main body of the garment, but by applying pressure so that the belt 16 pinches the collar between it and the conveyance surface 3, the "bulge" and "sag" are corrected and the collar becomes flat. It can be arranged. Since the belt 16 moves in the same direction at a higher speed than the moving speed of the garment, it acts to pull the garment from below to above during shaping of the collar.
