Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of garment processing equipment technology, and in particular to a placket sewing machine. Background Technology

[0002] The placket of a polo shirt refers to the central front area of ​​the garment, which is usually used for opening and closing, making it easier to put on and take off the garment. It can also be used for decoration. The design and treatment of the placket play an important role in the overall appearance and function of the polo shirt. Knitted polo shirts usually need to have buttons added to the placket to achieve the opening and closing function.

[0003] In related technologies, the opening process of garment plackets mainly utilizes automatic template sewing machines. Specifically, folded garment fabric and placket fabric are placed on a worktable and pressed firmly to define their positions. A sewing device then sews a U-shaped stitch onto the garment and placket fabrics. Finally, a cutting device cuts the garment and placket fabrics apart from the middle of the U-shaped stitch, completing the opening process. However, for plackets with overlapping plackets (where the left and right plackets overlap to form a fold), buttons are typically used to connect the plackets. Scissors are then used to cut the fabric at the opening between the corresponding stitches. This traditional manual opening process is inconvenient and lacks automation.

[0004] In view of this, the inventors of this case conducted in-depth research on the above-mentioned problems, which led to the creation of this case. Utility Model Content
