DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Referring to FIG. 1, the method of producing the curly type cloth ribbon 100 according to the present invention includes the following steps: first, preparing a straight cloth ribbon 10 (as shown in FIG. 2A), and then forming a continuous pleated structure 12 (as shown in FIG. 2B) on the straight cloth ribbon 10; second, sewing the cloth ribbon 10 having the continuous pleated structure 12 with a sewing thread 14 along a longitudinal direction of the cloth ribbon 10 (as shown in FIG. 2C); third, forming curly-shaped cloth ribbon 10 (as shown in FIG. 2D).
In the present embodiment, as described in the first step, the continuous pleated structure 12 is formed as wavy shape or tooth shape, and the continuous pleated structure 12 is proximately perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cloth ribbon 10.
In the present embodiment, the sewing thread 14 is a straight line and is close to a center of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction. The sewing thread 14 can be made by the existing cloth ribbon sewing machine.
Referring to FIG. 2C, both sides of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction are respectively sewed with an elastic thread 20. In the present embodiment, both sides of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction are respectively sewed with a hollow tubular selvedge 16, and the elastic thread 20 disposes inside the hollow tubular selvedge 16. The elastic thread 20 is preferably made by nylon thread or other elastic material.
In order to make the specification and the figures more easily to understand, the FIG. 2C in the present embodiment is shown in planar view. In fact, when the processing of the cloth ribbon as shown in FIG. 2C is completed, the cloth ribbon 10 will automatically curve as shown in FIG. 2D.
Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, which is an exterior schematic diagram of the curly type cloth ribbon 200 according to the present invention after being winded up.
Referring to FIGS. 2C, 2D, 3 and 4, the preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a curly type cloth ribbon 200 which includes a cloth ribbon 10, wherein a lateral direction of the cloth ribbon 10 has a continuous pleated structure 12, and a longitudinal direction of the cloth ribbon 10 having the continuous pleated structure 12 has a sewing thread 14, so as to form a continuous curly-shaped cloth ribbon 200. The shape of the cloth ribbon 200 is regular or irregular shape, such as regular spiral shape or reverse spiral shape (as shown in FIG. 2D), or curvy shape towards different directions, etc. (as shown in FIG. 4). Thus, the continuous curly-shaped cloth ribbon 200 is changeful in shape and full of beauty and fun.
In the present embodiment, the continuous pleated structure 12 is formed as wavy shape or tooth shape, and the continuous pleated structure 12 is proximately perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the cloth ribbon 10.
In the present embodiment, the sewing thread 14 is a straight line and is close to a center of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction.
Besides, both sides of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction are respectively sewed with an elastic thread 20. In the present embodiment, both sides of the cloth ribbon 10 along the longitudinal direction are respectively sewed with a hollow tubular selvedge 16, and the elastic thread 20 disposes inside the hollow tubular selvedge 16. In the present embodiment, the elastic thread 20 is preferably made by nylon thread, but all the other materials with similar function are within the protection field of the present invention.
When the curly type cloth ribbon 200 according to the present invention is vertically hung, the sewing thread 14 will be formed as a vertical line (as shown in FIG. 2D), and both sides of the sewing thread 14 will form regular or irregular curve. The elastic threads 20 on both sides of the curly type cloth ribbon 200 can support the curly type cloth ribbon 200, thereby preventing the curly type cloth ribbon 200 from collapsing, and the ribbon can be more stereo accordingly.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the foregoing preferred embodiments, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the details thereof. Various equivalent variations and modifications can still occur to those skilled in this art in view of the teachings of the present invention. Thus, all such variations and equivalent modifications are also embraced within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
