Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of textile processing, and particularly to an edge treatment process for textiles. Background Art

[0002] In the process of textile production, the edge treatment method of product seams is crucial, which not only affects the appearance of the product, but also is closely related to the overall style and value of the product; in the current market, the common edge treatment methods are mainly divided into two categories:

[0003] One category is the closed sewing treatment, which is the most basic process. Although it can play a role in fixing the edge, it lacks unique recognition and decorative features. The other category is the additional process treatment, such as adding lace or embroidering, etc. This type of method can add the decorative degree of the product and present classical style features; however, these methods have many drawbacks. On the one hand, the cumbersome process requires a large amount of manual operation, increasing the production cost; on the other hand, the lace and embroidery made of different materials from the parent fabric interfere with the consistency effect of the fabric, making the product only present a piled-up decorative effect, and the style is relatively conservative, which is difficult to meet the innovation needs of modern design and cannot fully reflect the current diverse cultural characteristics.

[0004] In addition, there are also treatment methods such as leaving natural fringes, drawing fringes and tassel fringes, etc.; leaving fringes can show certain aesthetic characteristics of the combination of abstraction and classicism, but the design limitations are relatively large, and it is difficult to reflect the high design value of the product; although the tassel drawing process has a unique style, the cost is high, which is not suitable for large-scale mass production, and it is difficult to implement this process for different fibers, and complex post-treatment processes are required later, which greatly limits its wide application in textile products.

[0005] In summary, the existing textile edge treatment methods have obvious deficiencies in terms of process, cost, style manifestation, etc., and cannot meet the needs of modern consumers for high-quality, personalized and diversified textiles. Based on the deep understanding of these problems and the pursuit of continuous progress in textile fabric design, the present invention aims to provide an edge treatment process for textiles to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] (1) Technical Problems to be Solved

[0007] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides an edge treatment process for textiles, which has the advantages of unique and novel process treatment and excellent aesthetic effect presentation, etc., changes the current situation that the closed sewing treatment lacks unique recognition and decorative features, endows the product edge with unique artistic effects, and improves the recognition of the product, etc.

[0008] (2) Technical Solutions

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose of unique and novel process treatment and excellent aesthetic effect presentation, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: An edge treatment process for textiles, comprising the following steps:

[0010] S1: Fabric selection: Prioritize selecting high-quality fabrics, such as silk, cotton, etc. The characteristics of different fabrics will affect subsequent processes. For example, the fiber thickness, density, etc. These factors will determine the selection and adjustment of process parameters in subsequent steps;

[0011] S2: Pleating: Manually pleat or fold the fabric at the operation area. According to the design requirements and the final desired effect, carefully select the pleating method. If a more dense fringe effect is desired, smaller creases and a higher pleat density can be chosen; if a loose and natural style is to be created, the crease size can be appropriately increased and the pleat density can be reduced;

[0012] S3: Binding: Manually use cotton thread or silk thread to bind the pre-designed positions at the operation area, and strictly control the binding force. Excessive force may over-squeeze the fabric and affect the dissolution effect; too little force may cause the fabric to loosen during soaking and unable to form an ideal edge shape;

[0013] S4: Auxiliary agent treatment: Use a fixing component to cooperate with the chemical auxiliary agent in the chemical auxiliary agent tank to dissolve the fabric, soak the edge part of the bound fabric, so that the fabric outside the bound part dissolves due to contact with the solvent, while the part bound inside remains unchanged, thereby forming a disconnected fringe effect on the edge part of the fabric and a hollow effect where both warp and weft threads dissolve inside, and at the same time, a new color effect is produced on the dissolved edge part of the fabric;

[0014] S5: Rinsing: Loosen the soaked fabric, and then use the fixing component and cooperate with the water tank to rinse the soaked fabric;

[0015] S6: Trimming and shaping: Finally, trim and shape the fabric through a trimming and shaping component.

[0016] Preferably, the edge treatment equipment for the textiles includes an operation table. One side of the top of the operation table is provided with an operation area. Two through openings are opened inside the operation table. A chemical auxiliary agent tank and a water tank are respectively placed inside the operation table and located inside the two through openings. A fixing component is fixedly installed on the top of the operation table, and a trimming and shaping component is arranged on the top of the operation table.

[0017] Preferably, the fixing component includes a fixing frame fixedly installed on the top of the operating table. A servo motor is fixedly installed on the front of the fixing frame. A threaded rod is fixedly installed at the output shaft of the servo motor. A threaded block is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded rod.

Three grooves are formed inside the connecting plate. A return spring is fixedly installed inside each of the three grooves. A movable clamping plate is movably installed at the bottom of the connecting plate.

[0018] Preferably, the trimming and shaping component includes a support frame fixedly installed on the top of the operating table. An ironing machine is placed on the top of the support frame. A trimming knife is placed on the top of the operating table.

[0019] Preferably, the operation area, the chemical additive tank, the water tank, and the trimming and shaping component are arranged on the operating table in sequence from front to back. The fixing component is located on the top of the chemical additive tank and the water tank.

[0020] Preferably, the movable clamping plate is attached to the fixed clamping plate. The movable clamping plate is fixedly connected to one end of the three return springs. The surface of the sliding plate is slidably connected to the top of the fixing frame.

[0021] Preferably, in the S2 pleating step, when manually pleating, professional pleating tools are used, such as a folding board with scales, to ensure that the width error of the crease is controlled within ±0.5 mm, so as to accurately meet the requirements of creases with different densities and sizes. And during the pleating process, at least 3 flatness inspections are carried out on every 10 cm length of the fabric to ensure that the pleated fabric is uniform, flat, without local pleat accumulation or being too loose.

[0022] Preferably, in the S5 rinsing step, the water temperature in the water tank is controlled between 25 - 30 °C to avoid damaging the fabric due to too high or too low water temperature, and the cleaning time is not less than three minutes.

[0023] Preferably, in the S3 bundling step, 40 - count or higher combed cotton threads are selected for the cotton threads, and high-quality silk threads with a denier of 20 or less are selected for the silk threads, ensuring that the bundling materials have sufficient strength to prevent breakage during the soaking process and will not affect the dissolution effect of the fabric due to being too thick. And during bundling, the cross-bundling method is adopted, and the spacing between each bundling point is controlled between 1 - 3 cm according to the fabric thickness and the size of the desired dissolution area to achieve a uniform dissolution effect.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0035] Embodiment 1

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , an edge treatment process for textiles, comprising the following steps:

[0037] S1: Fabric selection: Priority is given to selecting high-quality fabrics, such as silk, cotton, etc. The characteristics of different fabrics will affect the subsequent processes. For example, the fiber thickness, density, etc. These factors will determine the selection and adjustment of process parameters in the subsequent steps;

[0038] S2: Pleating: Manually pleat or fold the fabric at the position of operation area 2. The pleating method can be carefully selected according to the design requirements and the final desired effect. If a denser tassel effect is expected, smaller creases and a higher pleat density can be chosen; if a loose and natural style is to be created, the crease size can be appropriately increased and the pleat density can be reduced;

[0039] S3: Binding: Manually bind the pre-designed positions at the position of operation area 2 using cotton thread or silk thread, and strictly control the binding force. Excessive force may over-squeeze the fabric and affect the dissolution effect; too little force may cause the fabric to loosen during soaking and unable to form an ideal edge shape;

[0040] S4: Auxiliary agent treatment: Use the fixing component 6 to cooperate with the chemical auxiliary agent in the chemical auxiliary agent box 4 to dissolve the fabric, soak the edge part of the bound fabric, so that the fabric outside the bound part dissolves due to contact with the solvent, while the part bound inside remains unchanged, thereby forming a tassel effect where the edge part of the fabric is disconnected and a hollow effect where both the warp and weft threads inside are dissolved, and at the same time, a new color effect is produced on the edge part of the dissolved fabric;

[0041] S5: Rinsing: Loosen the soaked fabric, and then use the fixing component 6 and cooperate with the water tank 5 to rinse the soaked fabric;

[0042] S6: Trimming and shaping: Finally, trim and shape the fabric through the trimming and shaping component 7.

[0043] Specifically, the edge treatment process of textiles includes fabric selection, pleating, bundling, chemical agent treatment, rinsing, and trimming and shaping. Through the adjustability of the process, such as different pleating methods, bundling strengths, and differences in chemical agent treatment, various style effects from dense fringes to loose and natural are achieved, meeting the modern design's requirements for personalization and diversification.

[0044] The edge treatment equipment for textiles includes an operating table 1. On one side of the top of the operating table 1, there is an operation area 2. Two through openings 3 are opened inside the operating table 1. Inside the operating table 1 and respectively located inside the two through openings 3, there are placed a chemical agent tank 4 and a clean water tank 5. A fixing component 6 is fixedly installed on the top of the operating table 1, and a trimming and shaping component 7 is arranged on the top of the operating table 1.

[0045] Specifically, during the edge treatment of textiles, the operator first manually wrinkles or folds the fabric in the operation area 2 according to the design requirements, selects a suitable pleating method to determine the style, and then bundles it with cotton or silk thread at the preset position, strictly controlling the strength to complete the pretreatment. Then, the fixing component 6 moves the bundled fabric above the chemical agent tank 4 and slowly immerses it in the chemical agent, causing the outer fabric to dissolve, forming a fringe and hole effect, and the dissolved part generates a new color. After soaking, the fixing component 6 moves the fabric above the clean water tank 5 and immerses it in clean water to rinse away the residual chemical agent. During this period, the position of the fabric is adjusted to ensure sufficient rinsing. Finally, the fabric is moved to the trimming and shaping component 7 to complete trimming and shaping.

[0046] Embodiment 2

[0047] The fixing component 6 includes a fixing frame 601 fixedly installed on the top of the operating table 1. A servo motor 602 is fixedly installed on the front of the fixing frame 601. A threaded rod 603 is fixedly installed at the output shaft of the servo motor 602. A threaded block 604 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the threaded rod 603. A sliding plate 605 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the threaded block 604. Two electric push rods 606 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 605. A connecting plate 607 is fixedly installed between the two electric push rods 606. A fixed clamping plate 608 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 607. Three grooves 609 are opened inside the connecting plate 607. A return spring 610 is fixedly installed inside each of the three grooves 609. A movable clamping plate 611 is movably installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 607.

[0048] Specifically, place the fabric between two clamping plates to fix the fabric through the two clamping plates. The opening of the servo motor 602 can drive the electric push rod 606, the connecting plate 607 and the two clamping plates to move through the threaded rod 603, the threaded block 604 and the sliding plate 605, and move to the top of the chemical additive tank 4. Then, use the two electric push rods 606 to push the fabric into the chemical additive tank 4 to soak the fabric. After soaking, open the fabric and convey the fabric into the water tank 5 in the same way for cleaning.

[0049] The trimming and shaping assembly 7 includes a support frame 701 fixedly installed on the top of the operating table 1. An ironing machine 702 is placed on the top of the support frame 701, and a trimming knife 703 is placed on the top of the operating table 1.

[0050] Specifically, when processing the edge of the textile, in the operation area 2, the operator wrinkles or folds the fabric manually according to the design requirements, selects a suitable pleating method to determine the desired tassel effect or style. After pleating, use cotton thread or silk thread to tie the folded fabric at the pre-designed position, and strictly control the tying force to complete the pretreatment of the fabric. When completed, fix the tied fabric through the fixing assembly 6 and transfer it above the chemical additive tank 4. Then, slowly immerse the fabric into the chemical additive in the chemical additive tank 4. During the soaking process, the fabric outside the tied part dissolves due to contact with the solvent, while the part tied inside remains unchanged. After soaking for a certain time, a tassel effect with disconnected edges of the fabric is formed, and a hollow effect with dissolved warp and weft threads is formed inside. At the same time, a new color effect is produced on the edge part of the dissolved fabric. After soaking, use the fixing assembly 6 to take out the fabric from the chemical additive tank 4 and transfer it above the water tank 5, and then immerse the fabric into the water tank 5 to rinse the soaked fabric to remove the residual chemical additives. During the rinsing process, the position of the fabric can be adjusted appropriately to ensure that all parts of the fabric can be fully rinsed. Finally, after rinsing, transfer the fabric to the trimming and shaping assembly 7. The trimming knife 703 first carefully trims the edge of the rinsed fabric to remove the uneven parts, and then shapes the fabric through the ironing machine 702 to make the shape and size of the fabric stable, and finally obtain a product that meets the design requirements.

[0051] In summary, the edge treatment process of this textile can achieve rich and diverse style effects from dense tassels to loose natural through different pleating methods, tying forces, and additive treatments. Whether pursuing a delicate and exquisite tassel effect or creating a casual and natural style, it can be achieved through precise control of process parameters, thus fully meeting the modern design's requirements for personalization and diversification, and adding unique artistic charm and market competitiveness to the textile.

[0052] Moreover, through the collaborative work of the components of the textile edge treatment device, the processing efficiency and the stability of the effect are greatly improved; the fixing component 6 can accurately transfer the fabric to the chemical additive tank 4 and the clean water tank 5 for corresponding treatment through structures such as the servo motor 602, the threaded rod 603, and the threaded block 604, ensuring the stable position of the fabric during soaking and rinsing, and achieving a uniform dissolution and cleaning effect; the trimming knife 703 and the ironing machine 702 in the trimming and shaping component 7 respectively carry out meticulous trimming and stable shaping on the rinsed fabric, ensuring that the edges of the final product are neat and the shape and size are stable, effectively improving the product quality.
