Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fabric trademark production, and specifically to a production process for soft fabric shaped trademarks. Background Art

[0002] In the era of the booming development of the current clothing market, the sales volume of clothing shows a sharp upward trend. With the continuous improvement of consumers' demands for clothing quality and personalization, the trademark patterns on clothing, as an important manifestation of brand identity and product features, have also seen a significant increase in demand. At the same time, in order to meet the rapidly changing needs of the market, the production efficiency of clothing trademarks also needs to be significantly improved compared to the past.

[0003] Traditional clothing trademark production processes have many drawbacks. Traditional processes usually first use a mold for pressing and shaping, and then set silicone or glue at the groove position to fix the trademark pattern. This production method has obvious defects. Firstly, the trademark products produced are relatively hard in texture and lack softness, which not only affects the overall wearing comfort of the clothing but also reduces consumers' evaluation of clothing quality. Secondly, over time, such trademarks are prone to breakage or fault problems, seriously affecting the durability and service life of the trademarks and increasing the after-sales costs of clothing brands.

[0004] From the perspective of production efficiency, the production speed of traditional processes is slow. In the process of injecting silicone, a large amount of time is required for precise operation, and after injecting silicone, it is also necessary to wait for it to cool and solidify, which further prolongs the production cycle. The entire processing method has cumbersome procedures, involving multiple steps such as mold pressing, silicone injection, and cooling. Each step requires strict control, resulting in low production efficiency and making it difficult to meet the market's demand for rapid and large-scale supply of clothing trademarks.

[0005] In addition, the production cost of traditional processes is relatively high. The production and maintenance of molds require a large amount of capital investment, and the usage cost of raw materials such as silicone cannot be underestimated. Coupled with the increase in labor costs brought about by cumbersome procedures, the production cost of traditional clothing trademarks remains high, squeezing the profit space of clothing enterprises.

[0006] In summary, traditional clothing trademark production processes have obvious deficiencies in terms of product quality, production efficiency, and cost control, and it is difficult to meet the rapid development needs of the current clothing market. Therefore, researching and developing a new production process for soft fabric shaped trademarks has important practical significance and market value. Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a production process for soft fabric shaped trademarks, which solves the problems raised in the above background art.

[0008] To achieve the above object, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions: A manufacturing process for a soft fabric shaped trademark, comprising the following steps: S1. Lay the positioning film on the hot pressing area of the lower hot pressing die; S2. Coat and set a first hot melt adhesive layer on the upper surface of the positioning film; S3. Lay a foaming layer on the upper part of the first hot melt adhesive layer; S4. Coat and set a second hot melt adhesive layer on the upper surface of the foaming layer; S5. Lay a soft fabric on the upper part of the second hot melt adhesive layer to form a blank; S6. A trademark pattern concave die is provided at the bottom of the upper hot pressing die. The trademark pattern concave die and the lower hot pressing die are jointly hot pressed on the blank. After natural cooling, a finished product with trademark characters is formed; S7. Bond a soft fabric on the side of the finished product with trademark characters to obtain a soft fabric shaped trademark.

[0009] Further, the positioning film is a polyester film with a thickness of [0.05, 0.15] mm.

[0010] Further, the coating thickness of the first hot melt adhesive layer is [0.1, 0.3] mm, and the melting temperature of the first hot melt adhesive layer is [80, 100] °C.

[0011] Further, the foaming layer is a polyurethane foaming layer with a foaming ratio of [3, 8] times and a thickness of [1, 3] mm.

[0012] Further, the coating thickness of the second hot melt adhesive layer is [0.1, 0.3] mm, and the melting temperature of the second hot melt adhesive layer is [90, 110] °C.

[0013] Further, the soft fabric is one of pure cotton fabric, polyester fabric or nylon fabric, and its gram weight is [100, 300] g / m².

[0014] Further, the depth of the trademark pattern concave die is [0.2, 0.5] mm, and the accuracy of its pattern is ±0.05 mm.

[0015] Further, in step S7, the adhesive used for bonding the soft fabric is a waterborne polyurethane adhesive, and its coating amount is [10, 30] g / m². After bonding, it is cured in an environment of [20, 30] °C for [24, 48] h.

[0016] Further, in step S6, the trademark pattern concave die and the lower hot pressing die are jointly hot pressed on the blank at a temperature of [120, 160] °C, the hot pressing pressure is [0.2, 0.5] MPa, and the hot pressing time is [10, 30] s.

[0017] Further, before step S1, it also includes preprocessing the positioning diaphragm. The preprocessing includes placing the positioning diaphragm in an environment with a temperature of [40, 60] °C and a humidity of [30, 50]% for [2, 4] h to remove static electricity and impurities on the surface of the positioning diaphragm.

[0018] The present invention provides a manufacturing process for a soft fabric shaped trademark. Compared with the prior art, it has the following beneficial effects: 1. The trademark made by this manufacturing process for soft fabric shaped trademarks overcomes the defect of the traditional trademark being too hard in texture. By using specific soft fabrics (such as pure cotton fabric, polyester fabric or nylon fabric) and reasonable process parameter settings, the trademark has excellent softness. This soft characteristic can significantly improve the overall wearing comfort of the clothing, so that consumers will not feel discomfort due to the hard trademark during the wearing process, enhancing the fit and skin-friendly nature between the clothing and the human skin, thereby improving consumers' recognition and satisfaction of the clothing quality; 2. The trademark made by this process has good durability and effectively solves the problem of the traditional trademark being easy to break or have a fault. During the manufacturing process, by precisely controlling parameters such as the hot pressing temperature, pressure and time, a firm combination is achieved between the trademark pattern and the soft fabric. At the same time, it avoids the disadvantages of easy aging and easy shedding caused by using silicone for fixation in the traditional process, greatly extending the service life of the trademark. Even after long-term wearing and washing, the trademark can still remain complete and clear, reducing the after-sales maintenance cost of the clothing brand and enhancing the brand image; 3. Compared with the cumbersome processes of the traditional clothing trademark manufacturing process, this process has been significantly optimized and simplified. The traditional process needs to go through multiple steps such as die pressing, silicone injection, and cooling, while this process integrates multiple processes into one by means of one-time hot pressing. During the hot pressing process, the trademark pattern concave die and the hot pressing lower die work together to directly form a finished product with trademark characters on the blank, without additional silicone injection and cooling links, greatly shortening the production cycle and improving the production efficiency; 4. Due to the simplification of the process and the precise control of the hot pressing parameters, this process can achieve the rapid production of trademarks. In actual production, the production rhythm can be flexibly adjusted according to market demand to quickly respond to market changes. Whether it is small-batch customization or large-scale production, it can be efficiently completed, meeting the clothing market's demand for rapid and large-scale supply of trademarks, and helping clothing enterprises to quickly launch new products and seize market share.
