[0002] A magic hook is a commonly used connecting auxiliary material, which is divided into male and female sides. Among them, the male side is soft and fine velvet loops, and the female side is elastic fibers with barbs. The male side and the female side can be bonded or separated from each other.

[0003] The male side and the female side are buckled with each other to achieve connection; then, under the condition of a certain horizontal pulling force, the elastic barbs on the female side are straightened, and then the barbs on the female side are loosened from the soft and fine velvet loops on the male side and opened, and the male side and the female side are separated; then the barbs on the female side return to their original hooked shape.

[0004] However, most of the currently used magic hooks are made by an injection molding process with polymer and nylon raw materials. The barbs on the female side are made of relatively soft materials, and the female side is ultra-thin and can be used in combination with various hook-and-loop soft surface materials.

[0043] Most of the current magic hooks are made of polymer and nylon materials through an injection molding process. The barbs 12 on the female surface are made of a softer material, and the female surface is ultra-thin and can be used in combination with various hook-and-loop soft surface materials, especially hook-and-loop fabric, that is, the male surface. The injection-molded magic hook has the problems of inability to continuously process and low production efficiency.

[0044] Reference Figure 1-2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a method for preparing a magic hook. The magic hook includes a hook surface 1 and a fleece surface 2, and includes the following steps:

[0045] Provide an aqueous polyurethane slurry and nylon non-woven fabric. Use the nylon non-woven fabric as the diaphragm substrate 11 of the hook surface 1, and the aqueous polyurethane slurry as the hook substrate of the hook surface 1;

[0046] Provide an intaglio structure and a continuous hot melt adhesive printing coater. The intaglio structure is provided with grooves for forming the barbs 12 of the magic hook. The grooves are in a multi-column "T" shape or a multi-column inverted triangular cone structure and are arranged in a staggered manner for each column;

[0047] Combine the gravure structure onto the hot roller of a continuous hot melt adhesive printing coater;

[0048] Apply the hot melt-treated aqueous polyurethane slurry onto the surface of the diaphragm substrate 11 through a gravure coating process and form a polyurethane elastic part on the surface of the diaphragm substrate 11. The polyurethane elastic part includes barbs 12 of the hook surface 1 to obtain the hook surface 1;

[0049] Make a looped plush structure 21 on the surface of the flexible PET non-woven fabric through a textile method to produce and obtain the fuzzy surface 2.

[0050] In this embodiment, the hook surface 1 is prepared by a gravure coating method. Different from the traditional injection molding method, gravure coating can adapt to the dimensional requirements of different widths and lengths, is not single and fixed, and is more flexible. The processing speed and accuracy of gravure coating are relatively high, the process is mature, and at the same time, the processing and maintenance of the hot roller are relatively simple, the cost is low and it can be reused repeatedly, and it can be processed continuously, improving production efficiency. In addition, the diaphragm substrate 11 is a nylon non-woven fabric, and the barbs 12 are polyurethane elastomers. The combination of the two can improve the softness of the hook surface 1, effectively improve the adhesion and durability, and thus a high-strength and soft magic hook can be produced.

[0051] Reference Figure 1-2 , in some embodiments, the gravure structure is also provided with a groove for forming the hot melt convex post 13 of the magic hook. The polyurethane elastic part also includes the hot melt convex post 13. The hot melt convex post 13 is configured to be fixed in the slot on the part to be assembled through hot melt deformation. The hot melt method does not require the addition of any adhesives, solvents, fillers, and does not require additional fasteners; the structure is simple, and it is local heating, and the heating will not cause damage to other parts; the production efficiency is high, multiple hot melt convex posts 13 or the assembly of multiple parts can be hot melted at the same time, which is suitable for mass production with low cost; the hot melt processing process has no vibration, no pollution, no noise, and is environmentally friendly, energy-saving, fast, and efficient.

[0052] In some embodiments, the aqueous polyurethane slurry is a hot meltable aqueous polyurethane emulsion. The hot meltable aqueous polyurethane emulsion is a milky white translucent liquid with a solid content of 32 ± 5%, a PH value of 6 - 8, and a viscosity greater than 300 mPa·S, which can better ensure its own softness, elasticity and service life.

[0053] In some embodiments, the coating speed in the gravure coating process is 1 - 2 m / min, the maximum coating speed is 4.5 m / min, and the highest operating temperature is 200 °C, which can achieve gravure coating more uniformly and stably.

[0054] In some embodiments, the thickness of the nylon non-woven fabric is 0.3 - 1.5 mm, and the thickness is appropriate, which not only ensures good softness but also ensures a relatively low cost.

[0055] Reference Figure 1-2 , in some embodiments, applying the hot-melt treated aqueous polyurethane slurry onto the surface of the separator substrate 11 through a gravure coating process to form a polyurethane elastic part on the surface of the separator substrate 11 includes the following steps:

[0056] Taking out the water-soluble polyurethane slurry from the slurry box by a hot roll combined with a gravure structure; scraping off the excess water-soluble polyurethane slurry on the hot roll with a doctor blade; applying the water-soluble polyurethane slurry taken out on the hot roll onto the surface of the separator substrate 11 under pressure; curing the separator substrate 11 and the uncured aqueous polyurethane, and stripping and taking out the semi-finished product after curing is completed. The semi-finished product has a preliminarily formed semi-finished product hook; continuing to shape the semi-finished product by continuously heating with hot air, so that the semi-finished product hook bends naturally, and a hook surface 1 is obtained after shaping.

[0057] Through the above gravure coating steps, it is possible to ensure that the barbs 12 of the hook surface 1 prepared by gravure coating have relatively good flexibility and quality.

[0058] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the curing temperature adopted in the step of combining the separator substrate 11 and the uncured aqueous polyurethane for curing treatment is 80 - 100 °C to ensure smooth curing.

[0059] Reference Figure 1-2 , in some embodiments, in the step of continuing to shape the semi-finished product by continuously heating with hot air so that the semi-finished product hook bends naturally, it includes: maintaining the heating temperature of the continuous hot air heating at 110 - 150 °C, so that the bending angle of the semi-finished product hook after shaping is 0 - 45 °, and thus a hook surface 1 with excellent bending angle can be obtained.

[0060] In addition, in some embodiments, the thickness of the fuzzy surface 2 is 0.8 mm - 6.8 mm, the elongation rate is 40% - 80%, and the gram weight is 40 - 100 g / m², so as to ensure that the fuzzy surface 2 has good softness.

[0061] Reference Figure 1-2 , based on the above method for preparing the magic hook, an embodiment of the present application further provides a magic hook, which includes a hook surface 1 and a fuzzy surface 2. The hook surface 1 includes a separator substrate 11 and barbs 12 formed on the separator substrate 11 by a gravure coating process. The separator substrate 11 is made of nylon non-woven fabric, and the barbs 12 are made of water-soluble polyurethane; the fuzzy surface 2 is a flexible PET non-woven fabric, and a looped plush structure 21 made by a textile method is formed on the surface of the flexible PET non-woven fabric.

[0062] Furthermore, based on any of the above-described embodiments of the preparation method of the magic hook, the present application also provides a corresponding improved magic hook, and the performance and structure of the specific magic hook will not be elaborated herein.

[0063] Finally, it should be noted that the technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope described in this specification.

[0064] The above embodiments only represent one of the implementation manners of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present invention, several modifications and improvements can be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be subject to the appended claims.
