Abstract

A textile article (e.g. a garment of synthetic fabric) is pref. folded to produce a provisional pleat and a line of hardenable insoluble adhesive (e.g. a synthetic rubber nitrile) is applied pref. along the inside of the pleat. The article is then re-folded along the provisional pleat and pressed to produce a permanent pleat. Pref. the width of the line of adhesive is 0.254-5.08 mm; the viscosity of the adhesive is 10-100 poises; and the quantity of adhesive is 0.02-0.05 gm/m. the adhesive may be applied with a manual applicator having a chamber for receiving a tube of household glue and an elongate nozzle in which is located a freely rotatable roll. In an industrial machine the article may be fed on a conveyor through a nip of two rolls to which the adhesive is supplied. The method is simple and provides a permanent pleat which can withstand many (e.g. 20) dry cleanings. [FR2225564A1]

Claims (10)

Claims 1. A method of forming permanent edges or folds in textile products, consisting in applying a binder containing substances insoluble with a hardenable substance, and then pressing the product in order to fix the edge, characterized by the fact that first a temporary edge is given to the product to mark the desired edge line, and then a narrow strip of hard core adhesive is applied over the edge along the inner top of the pre-formed edge. 2. The method according to claim The method of claim 1, wherein the strip of adhesive is applied across a width of 0.25 to 5.08 mm, most preferably 1.27 to 2.54 mm. • 3. The method according to p. 1; characterized in that the binder is applied in an amount from 0.02 to 0.05 g / m. ¦ 4.

Device for forming permanent edges or folds in textiles, characterized in that it has a conveyor (82) for carrying the textile product and a guiding member (48) connected to this conveyor, in the housing of which there is a slot (99) for guiding the parts of a pressed product having a pre-formed edge and a dosing head (40) having a rotating imposing wheel (58) 9 pg ^ tpfjfjfjfjfjfjw with the adhesive reservoir (34), the dSJUfóe head (48) being mounted above the JIS conveyor. In feieFHflkH fenn. 90 419 7 6. Device according to claim 5. The conveyor as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that the conveyor (82) is an endless belt (86) housed in a housing (84), the upper portion (98) of which has a narrow longitudinally extending slot (99) aligned with the dispensing head (40) . 7. Device according to claim 5; characterized in that the guide member (48) connected to the dosing head (40) contacts a slot (99) of the housing (84) of the conveyor (82). 8. Device according to claim 5. The apparatus as claimed in claim 5, characterized in that it comprises a set of elements preventing the application of a binder containing air bubbles and returning excess binder to the reservoir (34), consisting of an imposition wheel (58) and a roller (56) and an outlet channel (62) and a groove (52). 9. Device according to claim 5; characterized in that the wheel (58) constituting the adhesive applying element is engaged with the wheel (56) in the housing (46) of the dosing head (40). 10. Device according to claim 5. The apparatus according to claim 5, characterized in that inside the dosing head (40) there are an inlet channel (60) and an outlet channel (62) connected to the reservoir (34), from which the channel (60) leads the adhesive to the pulley (58) and the other channel (62). ) discharges the excess binder into the tank. i-i90 419 Fig. I, 39 p ^ st ^ y -?
