Description

The invention relates to methods for the manufacture of dolls and may find application in the manufacture of soft toys for children and souvenirs.

1. A known method of manufacturing a doll and its basis (patent RU 78083 U1, A63H 3/00, publ. 20.11.2008, "Doll and its basis"), selected as a prototype of option 1 of the invention. The manufacture of the doll and its basis is as follows. First, they select the base fabric that makes up the doll’s costume. Finishing elements and items of clothing are selected for the fabric - a braid for finishing the lower edge of the dress, a braid for a belt and a handbag, a braid for fringing a headdress, fur or fabric for a headdress, various sewing accessories. Three parts of the base are made: the head, the upper part of the body and the lower part of the body. The head is made in the form of a hollow cylindrical part (such as a cover), which is made of polymeric materials (for example, plastic) or wood. The upper and lower parts of the body are made of fabric, which is both a costume or dress of a doll. The upper part of the body is made of one-piece with sleeves, bent in half, sewn along the length of the sleeves and the side of the body, after which it is filled with filler. The lower part of the body, consisting of a skirt sewn with a round base in plan, is filled with filler, which can be synthetic winterizer, foam rubber, artificial fiber, fluff, hollofiber or textile waste. The lower part and the upper part of the body are interconnected, mainly stitched or glued. They make a headdress, additional items of clothing - a shirt-front and others. The face mask is painted manually on a round base of the head or glued to it. A head piece is glued to the side of the cylindrical part of the head. Then the head is glued to the bottom of the headgear or sewn to the upper part of the body.

However, this method of manufacturing a doll and its basics has the following disadvantages:

- the implementation of the doll’s head from polymeric materials (for example, plastic), as well as the use of glue in the manufacture of dolls do not ensure the environmental cleanliness of the product, as well as sufficient bonding strength of glued parts;

- the use of artificial materials as a filler for the body (synthetic winterizer, foam rubber, artificial fiber, holofiber) also does not provide sufficient environmental cleanliness of the product;

- the implementation of the upper and lower parts of the body from fabric, which is both a costume or a doll’s dress, really simplifies the doll’s manufacturing technology and reduces fabric consumption, but does not provide long-term preservation of the aesthetic appearance of the product, since there is no possibility of replacing the main dress filled with filler, and cleaning or washing the whole doll does not guarantee the integrity of the whole product with its glued parts.

2. A known method of manufacturing a doll (patent RU 2010586 C1, A63H 3/02, publ. 04/15/1994, "Doll"), selected as a prototype of option 2 of the present invention. The manufacture of the doll and its basis is as follows. The body of the doll, consisting of a torso with a head, is made of fabric in the form of a single printed overalls bag. The upper and lower extremities are also made of fabric in the form of stuffed bags, which are connected to the body. A form-forming element is made from hard material (porcelain), which externally copies the mating sections of the trunk and head. The forming element is made in the form of a hollow bust, having a through hole in the parietal part of the head and additional through holes for the upper limbs. The doll is collected as follows. Pass the overalls bag into the cavity of the bust with the subsequent release of the bags of the upper extremities through additional holes. Then the overalls bag and bags of the limbs are filled with a filler, which forms the parietal part of the head due to the sealant. After filling, the inlet for the filler part of the overalls bag is sewn up, a hair wig is sewn to it, and then end parts made of hard material (porcelain) are attached to the bags of the upper and lower extremities. Artistic painting is performed on the porcelain surface of the face of the head (if this has not been done before) and the doll is tied up in a costume ensemble.

However, this method of manufacturing a doll has the following disadvantages:

- the involvement of workers of various specialties for the manufacture of doll parts, consisting of heterogeneous materials (fabric, porcelain, aggregate), as well as the use of porcelain for the manufacture of the shaping element and the terminal parts of the limbs, which is an expensive material, require a lot of labor;

- a doll whose components are made of porcelain, which is a fairly fragile material, does not guarantee safety when used as a child’s toy.

The technical task of the invention is to develop a method that improves the manufacturability of dolls, high environmental cleanliness, low cost of products, convenience and safety for use by young children, as well as the creation of a new line of toys and souvenirs with an original artistic image.

To solve the technical problem, two variants of a method for manufacturing a textile doll were developed.

Option 1. The method includes the manufacture of the torso and hands of the doll, filling the torso with filler, making the head and face design of the doll, according to the invention, the head, torso, arms and legs of the doll are made of square or rectangular fabric flap, which is folded diagonally in the center of which the head is formed dolls, for this, between the resulting triangles they put filler rolled up in a ball, collect a flap of fabric around it, tie it with textile thread or a rope product, and from the resulting four The arms and legs form the corners of the fabric, and the arms are formed from the upper and the legs from the lower corners, while each of the corners is wrapped with textile thread or a rope product, adjusting the thickness of the winding to shape the limbs, and then the doll's body is formed by filling the remaining space filler from the head and armpits to the base of the legs, then the body is wrapped with textile thread or a rope product or wrapped in cloth with subsequent strapping, after which a wig made of textile yarn, and after making the face doll dress in any textile suit or dress. As filler, textile yarns, spun wool, cotton wool, natural fabric or hemp burlap are used. Sewing, knitting or embroidery threads are used as textile threads. As a rope product use a soft rope, twine, cord, tape or braid. On the front part of the head, dolls sew a piece of fabric with a smoother texture compared to the main fabric. The wig is made of textile threads sewn in the middle, the frequency and length of which are selected depending on the given hairstyle. The doll’s face is decorated by embroidery with beads or textile threads or by priming and painting with acrylic paints.

Option 2. The method includes the manufacture of a body consisting of a torso with a head made of fabric in the form of a stuffed bag, attachment to the body of limbs (arms and legs) made of fabric, sewing a hair wig to the head, shaping the doll, shaping the face, and dressing dolls into clothes, according to the invention, to form the doll’s head on a stuffed bag, determine the location of the neck, which is tied with a strong textile thread or a rope product, and the limbs are made of flaps of fabric, each of which, after Attaching them to predetermined places, wrap them with textile thread or a rope product, adjusting the thickness of the winding to shape the limbs. As filler, textile yarns, spun wool, cotton wool, natural fabric or hemp burlap are used. Sewing, knitting or embroidery threads are used as textile threads. As a rope product use a soft rope, twine, cord, tape or braid. On the front part of the head, dolls sew a piece of fabric with a smoother texture compared to the main fabric. The hair wig for the doll’s head is made of textile threads sewn in the middle, the frequency and length of which are chosen depending on the given hairstyle. The doll’s face is decorated by embroidery with beads or textile threads or by priming and painting with acrylic paints.

The invention is illustrated by drawings.

Figure 1 presents a semi-finished doll with a shaped head and hands according to option 1 of the method; figure 2 - semi-finished dolls with shaped head, legs and torso according to option 1 of the method; figure 3 - semi-finished dolls with a fully formed body according to option 1 of the method; figure 4 - prefabricated dolls in the stage of attaching a wig according to options 1 and 2 of the method; figure 5 - finished doll according to options 1 and 2 of the method; figure 6 - a doll with a body in the form of a stuffed bag according to option 2 of the method.

An example of the method of manufacturing a textile doll

Option 1. A square or rectangular tissue flap is folded diagonally. Determine the middle of the diagonal - a place for the doll's head. Between the resulting triangles of the folded flap, a filler rolled up in a ball is put in, a flap of fabric is gathered around it, they are tied with textile thread or a rope product (Fig. 1). As filler, textile yarns, spun wool, cotton wool, natural fabric or hemp burlap are used. Sewing, knitting or embroidery threads are used as textile threads. As a rope product use a soft rope, twine, cord, tape or braid. The product so far looks like this: head 1 with neck 2 and corners 3 of the fabric hanging from beneath it (four corners in total).

Of the four corners of the tissue formed, arms 4 and legs 5 are formed (FIG. 2), with the arms formed from the upper and the legs from the lower corners. To do this, each of the corners is wrapped with textile thread or a rope product, adjusting the thickness and uniformity of the winding to shape the limbs. First tie a textile thread (rope product) at the tip of the corner of the fabric, then wrap around the fabric, sequentially advancing to the base of the arms 4 or legs 5 of the doll (figures 1 and 2). Then the textile thread (rope product) is fixed. Arms and legs are formed. Winding of the hands and feet can be done differently. To do this, first determine the base of the arms and legs of the future doll, as shown in figure 2. Then they begin to wrap the fabric with textile thread or a rope product, sequentially advancing to the tip of the corner of the fabric. The length of the arms and legs is determined at will. If the arms or legs look short, they are lengthened by applying a piece of cloth of the desired length to the doll’s arm or leg, followed by wrapping with textile thread (rope product), which is then tied. If the hands or feet, on the contrary, look long, then they are cut, and then fixed with a thread. The thickness and uniformity of the winding of the arms and legs is regulated by wrapping the fabric with textile thread or a rope product in one layer or in several layers, while giving the desired shape to the arms and legs.

Then form the body formed 6 dolls (figure 2 and 3), which is filled with filler from the head and armpits to the base of the legs. As a filler for the body using trimmings of textile threads, spun wool, cotton wool, trimmings of natural fabric or hemp burlap. To fill the body, you can also use a ball of textile threads. Then the body 6 is wrapped with textile thread or a rope product or wrapped in cloth with subsequent strapping them crosswise with the same products. If necessary, using a textile thread or rope products, the doll is formed waist 7 (figure 4).

In order that the face of the doll 8 does not look coarse, a piece of fabric of a smoother texture is sewn onto it compared to body tissue (Fig. 4).

Next, from a textile thread (sewing, knitting or embroidery) to a doll, a wig 9 is made (Fig. 4). Selecting the length and density of the doll’s hair, depending on the given hairstyle, lay the threads of the desired size and volume, then sew them in the middle. Ready wig 9 is sewn to the head of 1 doll. On a wig sewn to the head, you can create any hairstyle (for example, braid your hair in a pigtail). If desired, a headpiece is attached to the doll’s head.

The dolls face 8 is embroidered with beads (Fig. 5) or textile threads (sewing, knitting or embroidery) or they are made out by priming and painting with acrylic paints. Sew any textile costume or dress 10 to the doll and dress the doll.

Option 2. Making dolls begins with the formation of the body. To do this, the tissue flap is stitched so that a rectangular bag is obtained, which is turned out and filled with a filler. Figure 6 shows a doll, head 1 and torso 6 of which are made of a stuffed bag. As filler use trimmings of textile threads, spun wool, cotton wool, trimmings of natural fabric or hemp burlap. Sewing, knitting or embroidery threads are used as textile threads. The bag at the bottom is pulled together or sutured. The location of the neck of the doll is determined, which is tied with a strong textile thread or rope product. As a rope product use a soft rope, twine, cord, tape or braid. Thus, the torso 6, head 1 and neck 2 of the doll are already ready (Fig.6). If necessary, with the help of dressing the body with textile thread or a rope product, the doll is formed into a waist.

Then, on the trunk of 6 dolls, the locations of the limbs (arms and legs) are determined, to which four flaps of tissue of the desired size are sewn (or sewn them). Each of the flaps of fabric is wrapped with textile thread or a rope product. At the same time, the thickness and uniformity of the limb winding are regulated, wrapping the fabric with textile thread or a rope product in one layer or in several layers, giving the desired shape to the arms and legs. Then the textile thread (rope product) is fixed. Hands 4 and legs 5 are formed.

In order that the face 8 of the doll does not look coarse, a piece of fabric of a smoother texture is sewn onto it compared to body tissue, as shown in Fig. 4.

Next, from a textile thread (sewing, knitting or embroidery) to a doll, a wig 9 is made (Fig. 6). Selecting the length and density of the doll’s hair, depending on the given hairstyle, lay the threads of the desired size and volume, then sew them in the middle. Ready wig 9 is sewn to the head of 1 doll. On a wig sewn to the head, you can create any hairstyle (for example, braid your hair in a pigtail). If desired, a headpiece is attached to the doll’s head.

The dolls face 8 is embroidered with beads (6) or textile threads (sewing, knitting or embroidery) or they are made out by priming and painting with acrylic paints. Sew the doll any textile suit or dress 10 and equip the doll (figure 5).

Thus, textile dolls made by the described methods are non-toxic, do not cause allergies, are easily erased and retain their shape with significant deformations. The dolls lack solid components, which eliminates injuries and makes them safe for young children. In addition, due to the simple manufacturing technology of dolls, the use of only textile materials and the absence of adhesive fastening, the cost of products was reduced, the manufacturability of the doll and the strength of its design were increased. Due to the possibility of using threads and fabrics of various shades in the manufacture of the product, the possibility of applying face and embroidery, and painting with paints, as well as the possibility of creating any hairstyle and using different types of clothes and hats, the claimed method variants allow to give individuality and an original artistic image to each doll made . Therefore, the doll can be used not only as a children's toy, but also as a souvenir.
