Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ironing equipment, in particular to a clothing shoulder ironing machine. Background Art

[0002] Garment pressing is a crucial step in the garment production process. Using high-temperature steam to smooth out uneven areas of clothing, the process smoothes the appearance and enhances the finished garment's aesthetic quality. The saying "30% workmanship, 70% pressing" highlights the importance of the pressing process to the finished garment's aesthetics. For high-end garments like custom-made suits, pressing the shoulder panels is particularly crucial, ensuring not only a crisp, crisp shoulder but also the overall aesthetic of the finished garment.

[0003] The shoulder ironing machines currently on the market, such as the one shown in patent application number 201920406291.2, generally include a frame on which a vertically downward ironing shoulder bucket is provided, and two shoulder molds located below the ironing shoulder bucket. Although the current shoulder molds and the corresponding ironing shoulder buckets can be applied to suits within a certain range, they often cannot meet the optimal ironing effects for both small and large-sized suits at the same time. Specifically, if a set of shoulder molds and ironing shoulder buckets suitable for larger sizes (such as XL-4XL) are used to process suits of smaller sizes (such as size S), the shoulders of the suits may be overstretched; conversely, if shoulder molds and ironing shoulder buckets suitable for smaller sizes are used to process suits of larger sizes, it will be difficult to achieve the ideal three-dimensional effect.

[0004] To address this issue, factories currently employ two methods: one is to purchase two sets of shoulder pressing equipment, each equipped with a shoulder mold and ironing bucket suitable for different size ranges, but this significantly increases costs and increases the equipment's floor space; the other is to disassemble and replace the shoulder mold and ironing bucket on the same equipment. Although this method saves purchase costs, it is complex, time-consuming, and labor-intensive to operate, reducing production efficiency. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an improved shoulder pressing machine that can adapt to the needs of ironing suits of different sizes, keep costs within a certain range, do not increase costs too much, do not increase floor space too much, and can effectively improve work efficiency.

[0021] The following is a combination of the appended examples of the present invention Figure 1-2 , clearly and completely describes the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Example:

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the utility model discloses a garment shoulder ironing machine, comprising a frame 1, on which a first shoulder mold group 21 and a second shoulder mold group 22 are provided. The first shoulder mold group 21 and the second shoulder mold group 22 each include two shoulder molds 23. The two shoulder molds 23 of the same group are used to correspond to the left and right shoulder pieces of the same garment, wherein the two shoulder molds 23 on the first shoulder mold group 21 and the two shoulder molds 23 on the second shoulder mold group 22 are staggered to ensure that one group of shoulder molds 23 can be rotated and laid down backward when not in use, providing sufficient operating space for the other group of shoulder molds 23. In order to allow the shoulder molds 23 to be rotated and laid down backward, a support rod 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of each shoulder mold 23, and the lower end of the support rod 3 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. In addition, a fixing mechanism is provided on the frame 1 for fixing the support rod 3 when it is in a vertical state. In addition, in this embodiment, a corresponding ironing shoulder bucket 41 is provided above each shoulder mold 23, that is, four ironing shoulder buckets 41 are also provided. After the clothes are placed on the shoulder mold 23, the ironing shoulder bucket 41 moves downward to fit the shoulder position of the clothes and apply steam pressure to complete the ironing process. The ironing shoulder bucket 41 is an existing well-known technology, which can move up and down, and can be driven by a cylinder, a linear module or a screw rod. This is also common knowledge of those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0024] Furthermore, the two shoulder molds 23 of the first shoulder mold group 21 are different in size from the two shoulder molds 23 on the second shoulder mold group 22. The shoulder molds 23 of different sizes can adapt to the ironing needs of suits of different sizes, so that one device can meet the needs of multiple sizes, thereby improving the flexibility and applicability of the equipment and eliminating the need for frequent replacement or purchase of additional equipment.

[0025] In addition, the two shoulder molds 23 on the first shoulder mold group 21 are symmetrically arranged, and the two shoulder molds 23 on the second shoulder mold group 22 are symmetrically arranged, so that the two modules in the same group can iron the left and right shoulder pieces of the same garment.

[0026] In the present invention, a plurality of fixed columns 42 are fixedly connected to the frame 1, and an ironing frame 43 is fixedly connected to the fixed columns 42, and the ironing shoulder bucket 41 is installed on the ironing frame 43. Specifically, there are three fixed columns 42 and they are respectively located at the rear side of the gap between each adjacent shoulder mold 23. The fixed columns 42 provide a stable structural support for the ironing frame 43. In addition, the position design of the fixed columns 42 prevents interference when the shoulder mold 23 rotates toward the rear side of the frame 1.

[0027] The specific structure of the lower end of the support rod 3 being rotatably connected to the frame 1 is as follows: the frame 1 is fixedly connected with an articulated seat 5 corresponding to the lower portion of each shoulder mold 23, and the lower end of the support rod 3 is fixedly connected with a connecting seat 6, which is rotatably connected to the articulated seat 5 via a rotating shaft 8. In addition, the fixing mechanism includes a screw 7, a connecting hole 61 is provided on the connecting seat 6, and a through hole 51 and a threaded hole 52 are provided on the articulated seat 5. When the support rod 3 and the frame 1 are in a vertical state, the connecting hole 61, the through hole 51 and the threaded hole 52 are coaxial, and the screw 7 is used to pass through the through hole 51 and the connecting hole 61 and be threadedly connected to the threaded hole 52. It should also be noted that the connecting seat 6 is L-shaped. When the support rod 3 and the frame 1 are in a vertical state, the lower side of the connecting seat 6 just abuts against the articulated seat 5, so that the connecting hole 61 can accurately correspond to the through hole 51 and the threaded hole 52.

[0028] In the present invention, a support frame 9 is provided at the rear side of the frame 1 , and the support frame 9 is used to support the support rod 3 when the support rod 3 rotates toward the rear of the frame 1 .

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] 1. Select a suitable shoulder module: The shoulder modules 23 on the first shoulder module 21 and the second shoulder module 22 are selected in a suitable range. For example, the shoulder module 23 on the first shoulder module 21 is suitable for SL size, and the shoulder module 23 on the second shoulder module 22 is suitable for XL-4XL size, so that one device can be used for shoulder ironing of a wider range of garments.

[0031] 2. Adjust the position of the shoulder mold: rotate the unused shoulder mold group backward and support it with the support frame 9 to ensure that the operating area is spacious and unobstructed.

[0032] 3. Place the suit: The worker covers the suit to be ironed on the selected shoulder mold 23, ensuring that the shoulder fabric fits accurately on the surface of the shoulder mold 23, and uses an infrared emitter (optional) to align with the scale points on the shoulder mold 23 for precise adjustment.

[0033] 4. Start the ironing process: Press the start button, the ironing shoulder bucket 41 descends to above the shoulder mold 23, and begins to iron the shoulder fabric on one side of the garment with high-temperature steam. After completing ironing on one side, the ironing shoulder bucket 41 rises back to its original position, and the worker transfers the garment to the other shoulder mold 23 to iron the shoulder fabric on the other side.

[0034] 5. Ironing completed: The worker takes out the ironed suit and checks whether the ironing effect meets the requirements.

[0035] It should also be pointed out that the terms indicated in the present invention, such as: "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, which is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
