Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for folding shirts, T-shirts, tank tops, polo shirts and other garments, especially of the upper body, which remains incorporated in the garments to allow: easily and quickly making piles of garments perfectly regular, homogeneous and stable, to handle these garments (to remove any garment from the stack or put it back) easily without risk and fear of disorganizing them, and to obtain a very aesthetic presentation thanks to the perfect rounding of the folding appearing repeatedly in the bottom part of the batteries.
- the device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks.
- a first characteristic it indeed comprises a thin rectangular plate, forming the basic body of the device, having in its width and almost in its middle, a part delimited by two parallel lines, obtained by linear compression for example, and having the shape of a gutter. This is intended to receive a rounded articulation reinforcement.
- This articulation reinforcement rounded to the dimensions of the gutter will contribute on the one hand to the rigidity of the device and on the other hand to form the perfect rounding of the folding of the garment which is presented in the frontal part of the stacks.
- This device thus formed by two plates articulated around the rounded articulation reinforcement, has, once deployed, a flat face turned towards the user and a face with the relief of the gutter, which will be placed on the garment to be folded.
- the plate oriented towards the neck of the garment will be called the "upper plate” and that oriented towards the bottom of the garment will be called the “lower plate”.
- At least one stop is placed on the lower plate on the user side, and an opening is made in the upper plate.
- the user folds the garment by folding one by one the sides of the garment on the device, and then folding the upper plate towards the lower plate until it comes into contact against the stopper, which maintains a gap between these two plates .
- the upper plate can constitute a part of the basic body, an area of lesser thickness delimiting an edge of the gutter forming the joint.
- the lower plate can constitute a part of the basic body, a zone of lesser thickness delimiting the second edge of the gutter forming the joint.
- the rounded joint reinforcement can be inserted into the gutter.
- At least one stop can be placed on the lower plate.
- Reinforcements can be placed on the contours of the two plates in order to stiffen them.
- a hole can be made in the upper plate.
- FIG. 1 represents the view of the flat face of the deployed device.
- Figure 2 shows in section the side view of the deployed device
- Figure 3 shows in section the side view of the device in its folded position.
- FIG. 4 represents the view of the flat face of the device deployed on the garment to be pher, the garment being placed flat by exposing the back.
- FIG. 5 represents the perspective view of the device being placed on the garment to be folded, the garment being laid flat while exposing the back.
- the device comprises two plates (2) and (3) of quasi-rectangular shape, articulated around a rounded articulation reinforcement (4) in the gutter (12) of the base body (1) .
- the lower plate (3) has at least one stop (5) on the flat face of the device.
- the device according to the invention will be used as follows for all of the upper body garments:
- the garment is laid flat on a flat surface exposing the back.
- the user places the device in the deployed and vertical position on the upper body garment, the upper plate (2) on the neck side.
- the stop (5) is visible to the user.
- the sides of the garment are folded one by one on the plates (2) and (3) .
- the plates (2) and (3) are articulated around the rounded articulation reinforcement (4) by the zones of reduced thickness (8) and (9).
- the basic body (1) can be made of cardboard.
- the recesses (10) make it possible to reduce the folds of the garment which converge at these locations.
- the folded garment being intended to be stacked, the reinforcements (6) and (7) provide a certain rigidity to the plates (2) and (3).
- the rounded articulation reinforcement (4) and the stop (5) can be made respectively of foam and expanded polystyrene.
- the device is left in the garment for its presentation.
- Several garments folded in this way with a device of the same dimensions can be stacked on top of each other to form a completely homogeneous pile.
- the device can be stored, suspended vertically thanks to the orifice (11).
- the rounded articulation reinforcement can be pressed outside the base body of the device, against the flat part dehmited by two parallel lines obtained by linear compression and forming an articulation.
- the rounded articulation reinforcement can be inserted in the gutter.
- a cylinder can be inserted in the gutter.
- the rounded articulation reinforcement can be pressed outside the base body of the device, taking the shape of the gutter.
- the device can be made of a single material, having in its width and almost in the middle, a zone of reduced thickness forming the 'articulation and rounding, the space left between the two plates being filled by the sides of the folded garment.
- the two plates can be independent of one another and bonded to the edges of the rounded articulation reinforcement following its curvature.
- the two plates can be independent of one another and assembled with the articulated reinforcement rounded by an external means of assembly (for example by hinges).
- the two plates can be independent of one another and bonded to the curved grooves bordering the rounded articulation reinforcement.
- the two plates can be independent of each other and glued to the straight grooves bordering the branches which extend the reinforcement d 'rounded joint and which give it a U-shaped profile.
- the two plates can be independent of one another and inserted in two straight grooves made in the rounded articulation reinforcement .
- FIG. 16 depict in section the profile view of the device in its folded position
- the two plates can be independent of one another and assembled to the rounded articulation reinforcement by an external means of assembly (for example by adhesive strips, internally and externally to the device).
- the stop can be placed on the lower plate at a distance distant from the edge.
- the stops can be placed on the lower plate and parallel to the edges which are perpendicular to articulation.
- FIG. 19 depict the view of the flat face of the deployed device
- several stops of smaller shapes parallelepipedic, cylindrical or conical
- a stop can run along the three edges of the lower plate.
- the two plates can be independent of each other and can have at one of their ends a curvature of a quarter of a circle.
- the plates can be assembled to each other by their curved end, by an external assembly means (for example either by hinges, or by gluing (for example by adhesive strips placed inside and outside the device)).
- the device in its folded position will have dimensions of the order of 22 cm for the width, 30 cm for the length and 2 cm for the thickness.
- the device according to the invention is more specifically intended for folding upper body garments presented in the form of batteries on the shelves of clothing stores.
