Definitions

  • This invention relates to a method for producing garment labels. It relates also to a system for producing garment labels.
  • Fabric labels applied to garments typically carry printed information such as washing instructions, fabric information, country-of-origin information, dry cleaning instructions, warranty information, size information, the merchant's logo and/or information pertaining to the garment manufacturer. It is known to provide labels in a set or array wherein front and rear sides of the labels carry the abovementioned printed information in different languages. This allows the same generic label arrays to be used on garments destined for different countries thereby obviating the need to provide a dedicated label for use in specific countries. Such label arrays are typically sewn or heat sealed at an end thereof to a garment.
  • a method for producing garment labels including: using a printing machine, printing information on at least one face of each of at least two tapes of printable label material; feeding the tapes from the printing machine in a manner wherein one of the tapes is disposed adjacent and above the other tape; bonding the tapes to one another at bonding sites disposed at predetermined intervals along the lengths of the tapes; folding the tapes over at the site of each bond; and cutting the tapes along cutting lines extending transversely with respect to longitudinal axes of the tapes at cutting sites intermediate the bonding sites.
  • both faces of each tape are printed with information.
  • the bonding step may comprise ultrasonically welding the tapes to one another at said bond sites.
  • the tapes are cut along cutting lines disposed medially between the bonding sites.
  • the cutting step may comprise ultrasonically cutting the tapes along said cutting lines.
  • Figure 1 A shows a three-dimensional view of a conventional wet ink printing machine, illustrating the manner in which information is printed on two tapes of printable fabric label material, in a first step of a method of producing garment labels in accordance with the invention
  • Figure 1 B shows an alternative printing method wherein a digital printing machine is used to print information on the faces of two tapes of printable fabric label material in accordance with the method of the invention ;
  • Figure 2 shows a second step in the method of the invention wherein the tapes are arranged in arrangement where one of the tapes is disposed adjacent and above the other tape;
  • Figure 3 shows a further step of the method of the invention wherein the tapes are folded over at a bond site at which the tapes are bonded to one another;
  • Figure 4 shows a final garment label array produced in accordance with the invention, sewn onto a garment.
  • the method for producing garment labels in accordance with the invention, is adapted for producing a multi-language garment label array which can be sewn at one end thereof to a garment.
  • the method includes, as a first step, printing information on both faces of each of two tapes 10.1 and 10.2 using a conventional wet ink printing process wherein the printing machine includes a nip roller 12, a print cylinder 14 having a polymer printing plate and an anilox inking roller 16.
  • the tapes are of a printable fabric label material which is capable of being welded ultrasonically.
  • the tapes 10.1 and 10.2 are discharged from the printing machine in a side-by-side manner as is shown in Figure 1 A of the drawings.
  • a digital printing machine which may also be based on thermal-transfer, ink jet, laser, technology, etc. can be used for printing information on both faces of the two tapes 10.1 and 10.2 in an arrangement where the tapes are discharged from the printing machine in a side-by-side manner.
  • an analogue printing method may be used such as rotary, letterflex, screen printing, pad printing, etc.
  • tapes may be printed side by side but may in a different embodiment of the invention, be printed separately and thereafter aligned so as be disposed adjacent one another.
  • the two tapes are arranged in alignment with one another such that the tapes are disposed adjacent one another with one of the tapes being disposed above the other tape as is shown in Figure 2 of the drawings.
  • the tapes are thereafter bonded at bonding sites 18 by being spot-welded in an ultrasonic welding process.
  • the tapes may be glued to one another preferably using an ultraviolet adhesive which is cured using a source of ultraviolet light.
  • the bonding sites 18 are disposed at predetermined equi-spaced intervals along the lengths of the tapes.
  • the bonding sites are in the form of elongate spaced parallel weld lines which extend transversely across the tapes from side to side.
  • the bonded tapes are then folded over at each bonding site.
  • the bonded tapes are then cut along cutting lines C which extend transversely with respect to longitudinal axes of the tapes at cutting sites between the bond sites so as to form the label array 20 as shown in Figure 4. More specifically, the cutting lines are disposed medially between the bonding sites.
  • the label array 20 so produced comprises four sheets wherein each sheet is printed on both sides thereby effectively providing eight labels. Typically, each face will be printed with the same information in a different language.
  • the label array 20 is then stitched along a stitch line 22 at one end of the label array to a garment 24.
  • the cutting and folding steps described above may be carried out in a continuous process after printing of the tapes or in one or more separate steps.
  • the tapes may be of a coated material and subsequently cold cut or of an uncoated material which is ultrasonically cut. After sewing the label array onto the garment 24, the individual label segments of the label array which are ultrasonically cut can be separated relatively easily. Ultrasonic cutting provides the free ends of the label segments of the label array 20 with neatly cut unfrayed edges.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé pour produire un ensemble d'étiquettes de vêtement multi-langue qui peut être cousue au niveau d'une de ses extrémités, sur un vêtement, lequel procédé consiste à imprimer des informations sur les deux faces de chacune d'au moins deux bandes 10.1 et 10.2. Les bandes sont faites en un matériau d'étiquette de tissu imprimable qui est capable d'être soudé de manière ultrasonore. Après être sorties de la machine d'impression, les deux bandes sont agencées de telle sorte qu'une bande est disposée au-dessus de l'autre. Les bandes sont ensuite collées dans un processus de soudage par point ultrasonore au niveau de sites de collage (18) qui sont à des intervalles répartis à distance égale prédéterminés. Les sites de collage sont sous la forme de lignes de soudure parallèles espacées allongées qui s'étendent de manière transversale à travers les bandes. Les bandes collées sont ensuite pliées au niveau de chaque site de collage et découpées le long de lignes de découpe (C) disposées de façon médiale entre les sites de collage. L'ensemble d'étiquettes ainsi produit comprend quatre feuilles fournissant huit étiquettes qui sont ensuite cousues sur un vêtement.
