Definitions

  • Each breast front comprises a pair of breast cups formed integrally with material joining and surrounding them, with integrally formed outwardly extending elongated bands for encircling the body.
  • Each breast front accordingly comprises substantially a complete brassiere, except for the shoulder straps, means for connecting the bands, and decorative trim.
  • our invention contemplates an apparatus or method for making breast fronts or the like from rolls of sheet material comprising suitable fabrics having thermoplastic properties such as will cause it to retain substantially permanently a shape into which it is formed or molded through the use of heat and/ or pressure.
  • One or more rolls of such material are disposed adjacent to a pair of mold parts. If more than one roll of material is used, the layers of material are disposed in superimposed relationship to each other between the mold parts.
  • the width of the mold parts is preferably substantially equal to or slightly less than the width of the sheet material.
  • a length of material sufficient to cover the mold parts is fixedly held between the mold parts.
  • the mold is then closed, with heat and/or pressure being supplied to the mold to form the sheet material into breast fronts or the like.
  • the mold is then opened, the material removed and a new length of material pulled from the rolls for the next molding operation. This cycle is repeated continuously until the end of the roll-s is reached.
  • a further object of ou invention is to provide an apparatus and method for manufacturing breast fronts or the like which is simple and economical in time, labor and material.
  • Our invention also comprises such other objects, advantages and capabilities as will later more fully appear and which are inherently possessed by our invention.

  • FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the same taken along lines 3-3 of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is an enlarged sectional view showing the groove in the frame
  • FIG. 5 is a similar view showing the hold-down bar and material disposed within the groove
  • FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the molds in closed posi tion without any material disposed between them;
  • FIG. 7 is an end view similar to FIG. 2 with the female mold and hold-down bar in downward position;
  • FIG. 8 is a similar view with the male mold in upward position
  • FIG. 9 is a top plan view showing an alternative intermeshing arrangement of male molds.
  • a preferred embodiment which has been selected to illustrate our invention comprises a plurality of rolls 10 of sheet material having suitable properties of thermoplasticity or moldability.

  • a length of material 23 from the rolls 10 is unwound either manually or by suitable mechanical means and passed in superimposed layers beneath a guide roll 22 and across a frame 12.
  • the width of the frame 12 is somewhat less than the width of the rolls 10.
  • the length of the frame 12 is optional with the user and is commensurate with the quantity and size of molds which are used.
  • the frame 12 is provided around its entire periphery with a centrally disposed downwardly directed V-shaped notch 13.
  • a holddown bar 14 is mounted for vertical movement above the frame 12, its contour being identical with that of the notch 13.
  • the entire bottom edge of all four sides of the hold-down bar 14 is serrated to provide a plurality of spaced teeth 15, which are dimensioned to extend into the notch 13 in the frame 12.
  • a plurality of male molds 16 each of which has one or more breast front portions 24, each of which includes a raised portion which corresponds substantially to the shape of a human female breast, together with surrounding areas, including a pair of elongated portions extending outwardly from the opposite sides of said raised portion for forming a pair of body encircling bands integrally with the breast cups, to provide a complete breast front.
  • Each breast front portion 24 is defined and circumscribed by a projecting lip 30.
  • the breast front portions 24 are preferably arranged as closely adjacent to each other as possible, in order to minimize raw material waste.
  • each female mold 17 is mounted within the holddown bar 14 .
  • the breast front portion 25 of each female mold 17 is defined and circumscribed by a groove 31, which is formed complementarily to and which is adapted to receive the projecting lip 30 of the corresponding breast front portion 24 of the male mold 16.
  • the molds 16 and 17 are preferably formed of solid aluminum and are mounted on movable mounting plates 18 and '19, the plates being moved by a single hydraulic press 20.
  • the plates 18 and 19 are preferably provided with suitable electrically operated heating wires or rods 21; for transmission of heat through the plates 18 and 19 to the molds 16 and 17.
  • a length of material 23 sufiicient to cover the frame" 12 is unwound from the rolls 10.
  • the hold-down bar 14 and female molds 17 are then lowered simul taneously by downward movement of the upper mounting plate 19 until the lower edges of the female molds 17 are disposed directly above the material 23 and the teeth 15 of the hold-down bar 14 penetrateinto the notch 13 of i the frame 12.
  • the teeth 15 penetrate through the material 23 at spaced intervals and also compress the material 23 against the sides of the notch 13 so that the material 23 is securely held against movement during the molding operation.
  • the upper plate 19 may be locked in position by suitable locking means so that the female molds 17 will not move during the application of upward pressure from the male molds 16.
  • the upper plate 19, if locked, would be released after completion of the molding operation to permit its vertically upward return movement.
  • the male molds 16 are then moved upwardly by upward movement of the lower plate 18 until the raised portions of the breast front portions 24 of the male molds 16 are disposed within the complementary portions of the breast front portions 25 of the female molds 17, with the material 23 compressed between them.
  • the distance be tween the male molds 16 and female molds 17 when they are in closed position is preferably the same or somewhat less than the thickness of the material 23 so that the material 23 is subjected to pressure when the molds are disposed in closed position.
  • the pressure is supplied by the hydraulic press 20.
  • the amount of pressure used in the molding operation is preferably in the range from 75 to 200 pounds per square inch of mold area.
  • the heating rods 21 preferably heat the molds to a temperature in the range from 300 to 340 F.
  • the heat and pressure are preferably applied simultaneously for a period from one to three minutes.
  • the material 23 has now been caused to assume substantially permanently the shape and contour of the breast front portions of the molds and thus comprises one or more complete breast fronts for brassieres or the like.
  • the material 23 is removed from the frame 12 and excess material trimmed either mechanically or by hand.
  • the inter-engaging lip 30 and groove 31 help to hold the material within the breast front portions of the molds against movement during the molding operation and provide a complete trimming line between the breast front and the surrounding material.
  • the trimming line simplifies manual trimming or acts as a guide for the proper placement of a complementarily shaped trimming die.
  • a new length of material 23 is then unwound from the rolls and drawn across the frame to start a new molding operation.
  • breast fronts it is also possible to form a plurality of breast fronts at one time. For example, if a complete breast front requires three layers of material, it is possible to feed nine layers of material across the frame and mold all of them simultaneously. After the molding operation is completed, they are then separated into three breast front units having three layers each.
