Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a kimono hem trimming device.

More specifically, the present invention relates to a kimono hem trimming and alignment device for horizontally trimming and aligning the hems of a kimono while the kimono is suspended to provide a beautiful kimono.

To explain the conventional method of aligning the hem of a kimono using the example of a suki-nagagi, first, the front and back sides are sewn separately, and the back stitches, side stitches, and okumi stitches are made on each side of the left and right sides of the body. Match the corresponding seam allowances and perform saddle stitching.

Place the saddle-stitched intermediate product on a flat table with a width of about 2 m and a depth of about 1 m.

Place the outer material on a flat surface with the front side facing up, and spread it out on either side so that at least the sign part is flat.

At this time, make sure that the back seams, side seams, and back seams do not bend, and that the fabric does not become uneven.

Next, after measuring the size of the stamp, draw a hem cutting guide line that is perpendicular to the back seam and cut out the hem of only the outer material using scissors along this line.

Furthermore, draw a guide line to bleed the hem of the lining at a position longer than the front (usually 4 to 6 strokes) from the cutting line of the outer fabric by the amount necessary for wiping the back, and trim the hem of the lining along this line.

After cutting off the hem on one side, spread the remaining half on the opposite side again on the flat table and repeat the same process.

As a result of the necessity of such operations in the conventional method, there are the following drawbacks.

(1) The hem of the kimono is not level when worn.

Any material that can be spread out on a flat surface without distortion, such as paper, will suffice, but the fabric used for kimono is flexible, so its grain tends to bend.

Furthermore, if you cut the hem in a straight line through the weft grain on a flat table so that it is horizontal, when it is hung, the seam part is made up of the seam allowance button made of the fabric edge and the sewn-in sewing thread. The degree of sagging between the seams and the center of the fabric at the seams is different, making it impossible to obtain a horizontal hem.

(2) The outer material and lining are not compatible.

Not only do the outer and lining materials differ in thickness and texture, but they also usually differ in the degree to which the fabric sags when hung and the degree to which it shrinks when ironed.

In the conventional method of trimming the hem on a flat table, the dimensional difference that occurs when the outer material and lining are hung (a kind of hanging when worn) causes poor fitting between the outer material and the lining, which is a defect commonly known as bag. Become.

(3) The work requires skill and takes a long time.

Aligning the hem is done after side stitching, back stitching, and button stitching Saddle stitching, so even if the front and back sections are continuous at the shoulder and only on one side, the partial side of the collar should be completely spread out flat. I can't do it.

Also, although it is spread out with the outer fabric facing up, the lining side is under the outer fabric, so its condition cannot be seen.

In such a state, it takes a considerable amount of experience and skill to fit the front and back sides of only the code side part and spread out the left and right sides without distortion.

Also, when cutting off the hem of the outer material, skill is required to cut the seam allowance of the lining so that it does not sew.

Also, it goes without saying that it takes time to cut off the hem of a garment by using scissors four times, dividing it into the front and back sides of each garment.

(4) A large space is required for work.

The length of kimono is usually 160crrL to 170cfrL,
Since the width of one body when expanded is 80 crn to 90 crIL, this work usually requires a workbench with a width of about 2 m and a depth of 1 m.

This size is equivalent to the space of 3 to 4 regular sewing machines.

(5) Variations in length and finished dimensions tend to occur.

It is necessary to measure the size of the code by placing the left and right hand fingers on each side.

Even if the same size is repeated for ready-made kimonos, it is necessary to measure the VC twice for each kimono, which is time-consuming, and since measurements are made on a flat surface, the finished dimensions may be incorrect if the fabric stretches under its own weight. .

Dimensional differences between products and left and right dimensions are likely to occur.

The present invention aims to eliminate these drawbacks and provide a kimono hem trimming device that can be operated in a short time by an unskilled person in a narrow space and has a horizontal and beautiful hem when worn.

The present invention has the following configuration.

That is, the present invention includes fixed frame columns that are erected with buttons at predetermined intervals and have size adjustment rod stoppers at their upper ends, and a movable frame that is attached to the columns so as to be movable up and down and equipped with size adjustment rod mounts at their upper ends. a kimono hanging support rod supported between predetermined positions on the upper end side of the movable frame and capable of attaching and detaching a kimono, and a balance weight device that locks each of the movable frames and their mounted items at a predetermined height on the support; Two gripping tools provided below the kimono hanging support rod are provided with narrow grooves capable of gripping the hem of the hanging kimono, and the gripping tools move horizontally along the narrow grooves.

7 and Natsu 28.

An embodiment of the kimono hem trimming device of the present invention will be described below using a long robe as an example.

FIG. 9 is a sketch showing the state of the linseed long robe being stretched and molded.

First, as shown in FIG. 9, the body 29, 30, button stitching 32, sleeves 33, collar 34, and hook 35 are molded, and the outer material 36 and the lining material 37 are overlapped on the inner side and cut into respective parts.

Next, stitch each part of the outer material 36 and lining 37 on the back 4
0, side seam 41. Perform the backstitch 42, divide the part excluding the collar and sleeves into the outer material and the lining, join each part, fold them into the seam allowance, and iron them.

The front and back fabrics are saddle-stitched by matching the corresponding seam allowances on the front and back sides and sewing them together.

As a result, an intermediate product with only a torso part without a collar and sleeves as shown in FIG. 10 is completed.

At this stage, the kimono hem trimming device of the present invention is used to trim the two hems to determine the length of the kimono.

The operating procedure of the kimono hem trimming and aligning device of the present invention will be explained as follows with reference to the drawings.

Without further ado, I will explain the operation of adjusting the kimono size before starting the process.

When the vertically movable frame 3 of the device of the present invention is raised to the maximum, the cutting dimension from the shoulder peak line 31 of the kimono to be hem-trimmed to the hem portion shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the upper end of the kimono support rod 6 7
The size adjustment rod 12 is selected from several types of adjustment members prepared in advance according to the length of the kimono so that the distance is equal to the distance between the cutting machine and the rotary blade 211 of the cutting machine.

Next, lengthen the handle 14 of the vertically movable frame 3, lower the movable frame 3 appropriately near the grip plates 23 and 24, and provide the size adjusting rod insertion hole 11V with the size adjusting rod mounting base 10Vc.
c Fit and attach the size adjustment rod 12 selected above.

Note that the adjustment member may have a structure in which the length can be adjusted continuously according to the length of the kimono.

Next, when you pull the kimono support rod 6 toward you, one end of the kimono support rod 6 is free and the other rotates around the support rod rotation shaft 5, so it looks like a cantilever beam with one end protruding into the air. Become.

Here, the intermediate product shown in FIG. 10 is turned outward and passed through the support rod 6 of the kimono protruding into the air from the left cuff opening 38 to the right cuff opening 39=1.

In this state, adjust so that the back seam 40 of the kimono is located approximately at the center of the kimono support rod 6, and adjust the left and right shoulder mountain lines 31.
align with the upper end line 7 of the kimono support rod 6 to avoid wrinkles.

The cross section of this kimono support rod 6 is designed to be an isosceles triangle with an acute apex angle so that the shoulder ridge lines 31 can be easily aligned as shown in FIG. 4, so that the operation can be easily performed.

Further, in this state, the shoulder peaks of the kimono intermediate product are fixed to the kimono support rod 6 using magnets 44 and gusset needles so that the shoulder peak lines 31 do not move.

Next, push the kimono support rod 6 back to its original position and
put it on.

As shown in Figures 3 and 5, the support rod holder 4 is provided with a stopper 8 and a magnet 9 so that the support rod 6 is parallel to the kimono hem grip plates 23 and 24 and the stop position is constant. ing.

After fixing the shoulder part in this way, push up the handle 14 of the vertically movable frame 3 and push it up with the housing where the upper end of the size adjustment rod 12 contacts the lower end of the size adjustment rod stopper 18 attached to the upper end of the fixed frame 1. .

In this case, the balance weight 17 is the vertically moving frame 3
Since it is designed to be slightly heavier than the total weight of the whole kimono and the kimono intermediate product, the vertically movable frame 3 will not naturally fall.

In this state, the distance between the upper end 7 of the kimono support rod 6 and the rotary blade 21 of the cutting machine becomes equal to the distance between the shoulder mountain line 31 and the hem of the kimono plus the seam allowance.

In order to fix the drooping of the hem of the kimono, next, with the hem of the kimono placed between the two gripping plates 23 and 24, the right side of the hem shown in Figure 1 and the dotted line in Figure 10 is inserted. 32, find the position where the right body and the right side part 32 hang most beautifully, and attach the gusset needle 45 or magnet 4 to the button temporary fixing plate 13.
Fix it at 6.

Do the same for the left button.

Next, the grip plate tightening nut 28 is turned to securely fix the hem of the kimono between the grip plates 23 and 240.

Then, by operating the cutting machine 20 and moving the cutting machine's handle 22 from right to left while rotating the rotary blade 21,
The rotary blade 21 of the cutting machine 20 is inserted into the narrow groove 25 of the gripping plate 23.24.
, 26, and cut off the unnecessary part of the hem 43 of the kimono.

After that, loosen the tightening nuts 28 on the grip plates 23 and 24 to lower the vertical movement frame 3, pull the kimono support rod 6 toward you, and remove the magnets 44 and gusset needles 45 that fixed the kimono support rod 6. This work is completed by removing the intermediate product of the kimono from the kimono support rod 6.

If the lengths of the kimonos are the same, repeat the above process, and if the lengths of the kimonos are different, replace the size adjustment rod 12 and repeat the same process.

When the hem of a kimono is trimmed using the device of the present invention, the following drawbacks of the conventional method can be greatly improved.

(1) The hem of the kimono becomes horizontal when worn.

The hem of the kimono is cut horizontally while it is hanging, so the hem is always horizontal when worn (a kind of hanging).

Even if the fabric of a kimono is hard and difficult to deform, or soft and droops and easily deforms, a beautiful hem will always be leveled.

(2) The outer material and lining blend well.

Even if the degree of sagging of the outer material and the lining material is different, the hems of the outer material and the lining material are trimmed to the same size at the same time so that they blend together best in a suspended state, so that there is no misalignment between the outer material and the lining material.

Therefore, it is possible to obtain a kimono that has no misalignment between the front and back sides and has a good fit.

(3) Even unskilled workers can easily do it and the work time is short.

Align the marked shoulder peak line with the top line of the kimono support rod to fix the shoulder peak, then hold the top edge of the kimono and fix it in a position where it hangs beautifully while imagining when it will be worn. Therefore, the work schedule is clear.

In addition, the size adjustment rod allows you to obtain a beautiful hem of a kimono that is horizontal and has good fit between the front and back without any deviation in size, and because the front and back sides of the kimono and the left and right sides can be cut at the same time, the work can be done easily and in a short time.

The time required to trim the hem of one kimono is as follows.

(4) The work space is small.

Because there is no need to unfold the kimono, the width is approximately 1m and the depth is approximately 0.5m.
Since it only takes up a small amount of space, you only need about one regular sewing machine table.

(5) There is no need to work on dimensions for the same size.

It is common for ready-made kimonos to be produced in batches of the same size.If you attach a size adjustment rod that matches the size and press the button, the dimensions will automatically become constant, eliminating the need to measure dimensions during repeated production. The error is also extremely small.

The device of the present invention is effective for aligning the hem of a product that is made of approximately rectangular cut pieces and has a horizontal hem, and can be used for all types of kimono.

% is effective for long robes that have a double layer of outer and lining fabrics.

The types of kimono that can be specifically applied are as follows.

Extremely effective kimono types include ``banded long robe (men and women), mourning clothes, crested clothes, and children's clothes''; effective kimonos include ``single robe long robe (men and women), long robe (men and women), rain goat,
Yukata (for men and women).
