FIG. 3 is an explanatory diagram for explaining a sewing machine and the like used for implementing the present invention. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram for explaining an embodiment of the present invention. BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, an embodiment of an embroidery sheet according to the present invention and related technology will be described. FIG. 1 shows a state in which the embroidery sheet according to the present invention is viewed from the front side, and FIG. 2 shows a state in which the embroidery sheet is viewed from the back side.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes an embroidery sheet (hereinafter, simply referred to as a “sheet”), which is formed as a thin, substantially rectangular sheet body.

Two large and small large ellipses L and small ellipses S are drawn coaxially in the area on the front right side of Sheet 1, and two mutually orthogonal straight lines X and Y passing through the center of each ellipse are also drawn at the same time. Have been.

In the left column of the sheet 1, there are provided a name column 11 for describing an orderer and a design column 13 for specifying and describing a design to be embroidered. Also, using characters and symbols by the font design prepared in advance In addition, there are provided a character designation field 15 for embroidering the orderer's name and initials, and a management number field 17 for managing the contents of the order by a separately managed order ledger.

In addition, a substantially central portion of the sheet 1 is provided with a right area 19 on which the ellipse and the like are described and a perforation 23 for easily separating the left area 21 provided with a name column and the like. ing.

Fig. 2 shows the back side of sheet 1.On the back side, a plurality of adhesive parts coated with an adhesive to fix sheet 1 are provided on the fabric of the embroidery, which will be described later. Have been. The adhesive portion includes adhesive portions 25 and 27 along the upper and lower edges of the sheet 1 and adhesive portions 29 and 31 along the left and right edges, respectively, and extends vertically in a substantially central portion. And the adhesive part provided.

Note that the adhesive portions are not provided at least on the back surface of a region corresponding to a region surrounded by an ellipse L drawn on the front surface. In other words, the area is covered with embroidery thread and fabric when embroidery is performed, and the material of sheet 1 is used to prevent the adhesive from remaining in this area. I do.

In the present embodiment, as an example of the material of the sheet 1, a product named “Hiselon”, which is handled by Nippon Gohsei, is used. The “Hiselon” is a water-soluble material that is soluble in water.

In addition, if necessary, materials called "Sologlone" that can be melted in hot water at about 100 degrees Celsius, and materials that can be melted by heating with an iron or other material such as "Nice Film" or "Trick Film" can be used. Yes In order to perform embroidery using sheet 1, self-embedding is performed based on predetermined embroidery data. An automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 capable of performing embroidery dynamically is used. The automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 is directly connected to the management computer 45 or inputted with embroidery data via a flexible disk or other recording medium.

Although not described in detail, the embroidery data is fixed to a predetermined moving table 42 which can be moved two-dimensionally on the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 in order to express a predetermined design by sewing an embroidery thread. The movement data for relatively moving the fabric in accordance with the driving of the sewing needle, and the data such as the selection of the sewing needle to which the embroidery thread of which color is set when the embroidery thread of plural colors is used. is there.

The moving table 42 is configured to be moved by a predetermined driving means such as a servomotor.

Also, by inputting embroidery data to the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41, it is possible to perform a predetermined embroidery, but based on the same embroidery data, the size of the embroidery to be actually selected is selected. It is possible to change them either arbitrarily or arbitrarily.

That is, in the present embodiment, the embroidery can be performed in accordance with the size of the two ellipses S on the surface of the sheet 1. This means that the size of embroidery is selectively changed by changing the moving distance of the moving table 42 with respect to embroidery data (basic data) of a predetermined design according to a predetermined ratio.

Therefore, even for the same picture, it is not necessary to hold embroidery data for each size of embroidery, and it is possible to meet the needs of the orderer without increasing the number of data storage devices such as ROM and RAM. You can do it.

Naturally, the data (calculation) can be freely expanded and reduced. However, in practice, the thickness of the embroidery thread and the minimum interval for inserting the needle are constant, so simply increasing or decreasing the driving amount of the moving table 42, etc. may cause the embroidery thread to become sparse. It becomes overcrowded. Therefore, the number of needle movements (number of stitches) should be increased in accordance with the amount of movement of the moving table 42, or thinning should be performed, so that appropriate embroidery will be performed sequentially in accordance with the increase or decrease in the amount of movement. Is being done.

Next, an example of using the sheet 1 according to the present application to receive an order from an orderer and perform embroidery on a shirt as an embroidery object will be described. The embroidery service is performed by bringing an embroidery item such as a shirt owned by the customer to a predetermined service provider and placing an order.

First, at a predetermined service providing shop, a design to be embroidered is selected from designs prepared in advance by the orderer. Detailed descriptions of the designs that can be selected are omitted, but the designs include characters that are popular in television and games, as well as animals, plants, and other designs that are identified by numbers. Is to be done.

The orderer selects one design from the designs prepared in this way, and writes it in the design column 13 (or is registered by the service provider).

At this time, the size of the embroidery can be selected. In other words, if “CARA 1 2 3 _ L” is described in the design column 13 as shown in FIG. 1, the design with the number “CARA 1 2 3” is selected and the design is changed to L size ( Embroidery with a size equivalent to the large oval L of sheet 1). If “CARA 1 2 3—S” is specified, the design is the same as above, and the embroidery is specified to be S size (the size equivalent to the small oval S on sheet 1). Become. 'As described above, by specifying the specified items in the design column 13, the design specification and the size when the design is embroidered are specified.

Next, at the same time as the embroidery of the design, for example, it is selected whether or not to embroider the characters such as the initials of the user at the same time. Is described. In the case of the present embodiment, what is embroidered by the description in the character etc. designation field 15 is limited to those which are stored in advance as embroidable data as font data such as characters and symbols.

However, as another example, an arbitrarily described figure can be read by a scanner and embroidered in accordance with the read data, and such a service can be provided if equipment is provided. .

Other information about the orderer will include his / her name in the name column 11 on sheet 1, and the date of order, etc. will be entered as necessary.

In this way, after the prescribed items are written on the sheet 1, the contents of the order are managed by a prescribed order ledger or a computer, etc. together with the information described in the control number column 17 of the sheet 1 as necessary. You.

When order content is managed by computer, it is possible to automatically summarize what kind of design was ordered and how many times. In addition, when using a character design, generally, the fee for use is generated according to the number of uses and must be paid to the right holder. That is, it is possible to automatically calculate the usage fee for such a right holder by order management using a computer.

Next, the sheet 1 on which the predetermined items are described is attached to a predetermined shirt 51 as shown in FIG. The mounting position and the mounting direction of the seat 1 are determined by the orderer.

At this time, two large and small large ellipses L and small ellipses S drawn on sheet 1 Indicates the area in which embroidery is performed, so that the sheet 1 is directly attached to the shirt 51 using these ellipses as a guide. The oval area of the attached sheet 1 is an embroidery area for the shirt 51.

In addition, adhesive portions 25, 27, 29, 31, and 33 are provided on the back surface of sheet 1 as described above, and are fixed to shirt 51 using these adhesive portions. There are various types of pressure-sensitive adhesives. Preferably, the pressure-sensitive adhesive is a water-soluble material, and is preferably a material that flows down from the attached fabric by a water flow such as washing.

As described above, predetermined items are described for the sheet 1, and after attaching the sheet 1 to the shirt 51, which is an example of an embroidery object, embroidery is performed by the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41. This embroidery work is generally performed in a dedicated factory, with similar embroidery requests collected from various locations. Next, a case where embroidery is performed by the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 will be described.

As described above, the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 performs embroidery automatically by inputting predetermined embroidery data online with a predetermined recording medium or a computer.

The embroidery data is specified by the contents of the design column 13 described on the sheet 1, and the operator inputs the corresponding embroidery data to the automatic embroidery machine 41, and the shirt 51 on which the sheet 1 is attached is displayed. Automatic embroidery can be performed by setting the embroidery machine 41.

When the shirt 51 is set on the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41, two straight lines X and Y, which are provided on the sheet 1 and are orthogonal to each other and are proved as so-called "register marks", are used as a guide. That is, the intersection of the straight lines X and Y indicates the reference position with respect to the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41, and the direction of the straight lines X and Y indicates the direction set with respect to the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41.

Set the shirt 51 on the automatic embroidery sewing machine 41 as described above. Thus, the embroidery design specified on Sheet 1 is embroidered within the range of the oval area drawn on Sheet 1.

Further, at the time of the embroidery, the embroidery is performed with the sheet 1 attached to the shirt 51. Therefore, when the embroidery is completed, a part of the sheet 1 remains between the embroidery thread and the cloth of the shirt 51. To remove the remaining sheet 1 as described above, perform the following operation.

That is, in the present embodiment, since the sheet 1 is formed of a water-soluble material, the remaining sheet 1 can be easily washed away by washing the shirt 51 itself with water or the like. I have. The work of removing the sheet 1 can be carried out by returning the embroidered shirt or the like to the orderer and then washing it by the orderer himself. If requested, it can be removed by this tallying work. '

In the present embodiment, the adhesive is not provided on the back surface of the sheet 1 of the expected remaining portion, so that the adhesive remains between the embroidery thread and the cloth of the shirt 51. Not to be. This takes into account that the adhesive itself is also water-soluble, but harder to flow out than the sheet 1 material.

Furthermore, the ellipses L, S and the straight lines X, Y, etc., which are printed on the sheet 1, are drawn with a predetermined ink, but these ink materials are used when the sheet 1 is immersed in water. The material is selected so that it does not transfer to the material fabric and soak.

The straight lines X and Y may be formed by embossing or embossing the sheet instead of ink. Sheet 1 can be separated by a perforation 23 between the right side area of sheet 1 provided with straight lines X and Y and the left side area of sheet 1 provided with design columns 13, etc. ing. That is, when the sheet 1 is removed by forming the straight lines X and Y without using the ink, the same operation is performed after the left area using the ink is removed by the perforations 23, and the ink cloth is removed. The possibility of a transfer to the nation is completely eliminated.

The embroidery sheet described above has two large and small large ellipses L and small ellipses S as positioning marks indicating the embroidery position on the surface of the same sheet, and is orthogonal to each other passing through the center of each ellipse. Two straight lines X and Y, a name column 11 to describe the orderer, a design column 13 to specify and describe the design to be embroidered, etc. It is provided with.

On the other hand, as another embodiment, it is possible to form a sheet provided with only a positioning mark indicating an embroidery position without providing a recording column for describing items related to an embroidery order. That is, for a sheet formed of the above-mentioned soluble material and non-woven cloth or the like, two large and small large ellipses L, small ellipses S, and two straight lines X passing through the center of each ellipse and orthogonal to each other. , Y, etc., a positioning mark indicating an embroidery position is formed, and other configurations are the same as those described in the above embodiment. .

By forming and using such a sheet, the orderer can arbitrarily specify the position, orientation, range, etc. of the embroidery object owned by the orderer, and the order receiving side also has the position, orientation, range with respect to the embroidery object. Embroidery can be recognized without mistake, and embroidery can be performed as ordered.

Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, the sheet is described as a predetermined organic solvent or a soluble material soluble in water. However, a sheet made of a nonwoven fabric or the like, which is not a soluble material, can be used.

In this case, a series of flows up to the completion of the embroidery is completely the same as in the above embodiment, and the description is omitted. The difference is the processing after the embroidery is completed.In this case, the sheet cannot be melted and removed, but the embroidery site has a large number of holes perforated by the embroidery needle. It has become. In other words, it is in a state similar to that in which a perforation for cutting is formed, so that an unnecessary portion of the sheet body can be easily cut off along the contour of the embroidery portion. The sheet covered with the embroidery thread does not affect the finish of the embroidery or the quality after that, even if it is left as it is.

Further, as another embodiment, the sheet according to the present invention can have the following structure. In other words, the structure of the sheet that is actually attached to the embroidered fabric is as described above, but the name field for entering the orderer for the sheet, the design to be embroidered, and the like are specified. In this method, several sheets of paper with a management number etc. are spelled out and attached. This is provided with a sheet to be passed to the orderer as a copy for customers, a copy sheet to be stored at the reception shop, a sheet to be an order form for the embroidery factory, etc., which can be separated from each other. It is.

By forming such an embroidery sheet, an embroidery sheet suitable for management from receiving an order to delivery of an article can be provided.
