Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing fitted sheets or similar protective covers, in which rectangular pieces of cloth are cut off from a web, the corners of which are separated by approximately rectangular cutouts, two adjacent cut edges then being connected by a seam, and in which Tensioning elastic bands or the like can be sewn on or sewn into the appropriately folded cloth edges in the tensioned state, which in the relaxed state cause the cloth to contract with the formation of folds or curls.
  • fitted sheets have been made from textiles or textile-like materials (so-called non-woven materials) in a predominantly manual working process.
  • the web material is first laid in a stack with a long-laying machine, and this stack is then cut through in the middle, and the corners at the cut edges are finally separated by rectangular or approximately rectangular cutouts on the resulting two stack halves. All other operations for the production of the fitted sheets must then be carried out manually.
  • the blanks are transported to a manual sewing station, where the respective adjacent two cut edges in the area of the cut cloth corner are placed flush on top of each other and sewn together. If in this way the four required connecting seams are attached to each piece of cloth, you will - in spatial terms - already get a box-like cloth structure.
  • the elastic bands or similar tensioning elements are then to be attached to these now partially assembled fitted sheets.
  • This is done at another manual sewing station, to which the partially assembled fitted sheets have to be transported.
  • the elastic bands are usually tightened on the cloth edges along the two narrow sides of the partially assembled fitted sheet. sewn in that they run a bit beyond the respective corner into the long side of the fitted sheet in question and, when relaxed, pull the fabric together or curl in the corner area.
  • a disadvantage of this manufacturing method is, above all, the relatively high amount of manual work involved, although it should be noted that the work processes described above rule out automatic, automatic production of the fitted sheets.
  • undesired transport paths for the sewing material are required, for which a relatively large amount of space is also required for intermediate storage.
  • the invention is based on the object of specifying a more economical and predominantly mechanically executable manufacturing method for fitted sheets or similar protective covers. This process should also save transport routes and storage space for the sewing material.
  • the method according to the invention has the advantages that the application of the markings to the web material and the attaching or sewing in of the tensioning elastic bands in the tensioned state to the edges of the web material or to the pieces of cloth separated therefrom can take place completely automatically, ie automatically in a corresponding device .
  • This eliminates the time-consuming manual work in connection with the elastic straps, which was made even more difficult by the fact that they are to be sewn or sewn on in the tensioned state.
  • Executed manually are according to the inventive method only the diagonal folding at each corner of a piece of cloth, the sewing together of these folded sections of cloth and their separation, which is a problem for a skilled seamstress, since it is relatively short seams and lengths of cut to be placed flat goods.
  • the method according to the invention also reduces the transport routes for the sewing material and the space for intermediate storage of the same in comparison to the prior art, since only a manual sewing station is required.
  • a saving in the elastic bands and thus a further increase in the economy of the method according to the invention is achieved in that the elastic bands are sewn on or sewn in at a distance from the corners of a piece of cloth. If the folded cloth sections are then cut off with the corners, no or practically no tensioning rubber is lost.
  • the tensioning rubber bands for a piece of cloth come to the cloth edges at a mutual distance from one another be sewn in. You can get by without affecting the function of such fitted sheets, namely with relatively short elastic bands on the edges of the sheet opposite both sides of the respective connecting seam.
  • a web material 10 serves as the starting material for the fitted sheets, one of which is shown almost completed at 9 in FIG. 2, which is drawn off from a supply stack 12 via a deflection roller 11, inter alia by a drive roller 13, which is driven intermittently by an electric motor 14 .
  • a deflection roller 11 inter alia by a drive roller 13, which is driven intermittently by an electric motor 14 .
  • dancer rolls which stretch the web material 10 in the longitudinal direction before it runs over a further drive roller 16 in the direction of the cutting station 18.
  • the drive roller 16 is driven intermittently by an electric motor 17 in synchronism with the drive roller 13.
  • the cutting station 18 comprises a separating knife 19 which can be moved up and down by a motor and a stationary counter knife 20.
  • the two knives 19, 20 are preceded by a holding bar 21 which can be moved up and down by a drive means (not shown) and which interacts with a support plate located under the web material 10, to clamp the web material 10 before the cutting knife 19 comes into operation. Even after the separating cut has been made, the web material 10 is still clamped briefly, for reasons that will be described later. Between the drive roller 13 and the deflection roller 11 also extends a support plate below the web material 10.
  • a measuring wheel 22 which is driven when the web material 10 is pulled off from the supply stack 12, is drive-connected to an encoder 23, which, among other things, controls the electric motors via a control circuit 14, 17 controls that a web length, which corresponds to the cutting length of a fitted sheet, is subtracted from the supply stack 12.
  • an encoder 23 which, among other things, controls the electric motors via a control circuit 14, 17 controls that a web length, which corresponds to the cutting length of a fitted sheet, is subtracted from the supply stack 12.
  • two marking devices 24 come into operation, which place four marking points 25, 26 next to each longitudinal edge 27 of the web material 10.
  • these marking points can consist of contrasting colors, including fluorescent colors for optical scanning, metal-containing colors for inductive or capacitive scanning, etc.
  • the marking points 26 are sensed by sensors, not shown, which control a feed device 28 for a tensioning elastic band 31 and the drive motor 29 for a sewing machine 30 with respect to each longitudinal edge 27 of the web material 10 via a control circuit.
  • the marking points 26 switch on the feed devices 28 for the elastic band 31, which is indicated by only schematically indicated guiding and tensioning devices 33 is guided parallel to the longitudinal edges 27 against the web material 10 in the tensioned state, so that it is sewn onto the web material 10 parallel to the edges when the sewing machines 30 are reached.
  • the marking points 26 also control the drive of the separating knife 19, which can be moved up and down, via sensors (not shown) such that the separating cut runs between two marking points 25, 26 spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the web material 10.
  • the separated piece of cloth 34 can be transported transversely to the longitudinal direction of the web material 10 by lower transport belts 35 and upper transport belts 36 and 37 to the left in the direction of the arrow according to FIG.
  • the bracket 32 is driven on a guide, not shown, by an endless drive member 38 to and fro via the electric motor 39.
  • a lifting device 40 lifts the upper transport belts 36 to such an extent that the clamp 32 can be moved under the transport belts 36 against the cutting station 18 and back.
  • the control of the electric motor 39 for driving the clamp 32 and its gripping movement is carried out by the transmitter 23 via the control circuit already mentioned, in synchronism with the electric motors 14, 17 of the drive rollers 13, 16.
  • the clamp 32 After the web material 10 has been released by the holding strip 21, the clamp 32 is moved back into its starting position shown in FIG. 7, while at the same time the drive rollers 13, 16 are activated in order to pull off a further cutting length of the web product 10 from the supply stack 12. When this cutting length is reached, the motors 14, 17 and 39 are switched off again. After a further piece of cloth 34 has been cut off by the separating knife 19 and this piece of cloth 34 has been removed to the left in the direction of the arrow according to FIG. 7, the clamp 32 is moved again against the cutting station 18 and the process described is repeated. The actuation of the holding bar 21 and the separating knife 19 and the lifting device 40 controls the electrical control circuit already mentioned, which is electrically connected to the transmitter 23.
  • the upper transport belts 37 are driven by an electric motor 43, in synchronism with the lower transport belts 35 driven by an electric motor, not shown, and the upper transport belts 36 are driven by an electric motor 44 which is supported by a frame 45 which is carried by the lifting device 40 can be raised and lowered.
  • the motors 43, 44 for the transport belts 37, 36 and the motor (not shown) for the lower transport belts 35 can also be controlled by the transmitter 23 via the electrical control circuit with a corresponding time delay, or by sensors which control the longitudinal edges 27a of the cloth pieces 34 scan in the range of movement of the clamp 32.
  • the elastic bands 31 'and 31' along the longitudinal edges 27a and transverse edges 41 of a piece of cloth 34 are arranged at a mutual distance from one another and also at equal distances from each corner 47 of a piece of cloth 34.
  • the sewn on in the above manner in the tensioned state Tensioning elastic bands 31 'and 31 ⁇ produce in the relaxed state the ripples or folds indicated in Fig. 1 on the piece of cloth 34.
  • the sewing of the elastic bands described above on the longitudinal edges 27 of the web material 10 and on the transverse edges 41 of the cloth pieces 34 takes place in a state in which the web material 10 or cloth pieces 34 are held in a flat state and are moved in the directions indicated by arrows in FIG. 7.
  • so-called hem bags can be provided in the area of the feed devices 28, 28 'for the elastic bands 31, which fold over the longitudinal edges 27 of the web material 10 or the transverse edges 41 of the cloth pieces 34, so that the elastic bands can be sewn into these folded cloth edges .
  • the control of the feed devices 28, 28 'for the rubber bands 31 can also be carried out in a departure from the embodiment in such a way that e.g. A continuous elastic band is arranged on the longitudinal edges 27a and / or transverse edges 41 of the cloth pieces 34, but is preferably at the distance described in connection with the exemplary embodiment with respect to the adjacent corners 47.
