Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of pleating manufacturing for pleated skirts, specifically to a template for making pleated skirts. Background Technology

[0002] A pleated skirt is a skirt whose body is made up of many fine, vertical pleats. It has a strong three-dimensional effect, is beautiful and attractive, and is very popular among female consumers.

[0003] Currently, garment manufacturers typically use specialized pleating machines to create the pleats on pleated skirts. This process is complex, and pleating machines can only produce wider pleats. Furthermore, the pleats must be of uniform width along the length of the skirt. For pleated skirts with narrower and shorter pleats, it is impossible to rely on pleating machines; they must be made manually, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and results in poor product consistency. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, a template for making pleated skirts is needed to solve the problem that some pleated skirts in the existing technology cannot be made by pleating machines and can only be made by hand, resulting in low efficiency and poor consistency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the inventor provides a template for making a pleated skirt, comprising:

[0006] The base plate is provided with a first sewing channel, a side fastener for the cut piece, and a slot. The first sewing channel is arranged horizontally. The side fastener for the cut piece is located at one end of the first sewing channel to fix one side of the cut piece. Several slots are provided and arranged horizontally on one side of the first sewing channel.

[0007] The cover plate is provided with a second sewing channel, which coincides with the first sewing channel when the cover plate is placed on the base plate;

[0008] A pleating board is provided, wherein there are several pleating boards, one end of which is provided with an embedding groove into which a cut piece can be inserted, and after the pleating board is flipped over, the other end of the pleating board can be inserted into the groove.

[0009] In some embodiments, the side fastener of the cut piece is a clamp or an adhesive strip.

[0010] In some embodiments, the base plate further includes:

[0011] Several positioning strips are arranged laterally along one side of the first sewing channel, and the gaps between adjacent positioning strips form the slot.

[0012] In some embodiments, a plurality of positioning strips can be longitudinally movably disposed on the base plate; a plurality of pleated plates are respectively flip-connected to a plurality of positioning strips one-to-one, and the pleated plates are snapped into slots after being flipped over.

[0013] In some embodiments, it also includes:

[0014] The base is longitudinally detachable and located on the bottom plate, and is situated on one side of the first sewing channel. Several positioning strips are provided on the base.

[0015] In some embodiments, the base plate further includes:

[0016] A cut piece alignment strip is provided laterally and is located between the slot and the first sewing channel.

[0017] In some embodiments, at least two first sewing channels are provided, and each first sewing channel is arranged longitudinally; the number of second sewing channels is the same as the number of first sewing channels, and when the cover plate is placed on the base plate, each second sewing channel overlaps with each first sewing channel one-to-one.

[0018] In some embodiments, the cover plate is hinged to one side of the base plate by a flexible connecting strip or hinge.

[0019] In some embodiments, both the cover plate and the bottom plate are provided with magnetic suction components, and when the cover plate is placed on the bottom plate, the cover plate and the bottom plate are magnetically attracted together.

[0020] In some embodiments, the cover plate further includes:

[0021] A cutting piece pressing strip is provided laterally and is located on the side of the second sewing channel away from the slot.

[0022] Unlike existing technologies, the above-described template for making a pleated skirt uses a base plate to hold the cut pieces. Side fasteners on the base plate secure the sides of the cut pieces, assisting the operator in pleating and preventing displacement. A slot on the base plate secures a pleating board, which has an insert groove into which the cut pieces can be inserted. After the cut pieces are secured by the side fasteners, the pleating board can be used to insert the cut pieces into the insert groove. The pleating board is then flipped until pleats are formed, and the board is then secured in the slot, thus completing one pleat. Several pleating boards are used in succession until the cut pieces are fully pleated to form pleats. A cover plate is then placed on top to flatten the pleated pieces. At this point, the second sewing channel of the cover plate overlaps with the first sewing channel of the base plate, allowing sewing equipment to be used at the overlapping second and first sewing channels. By using several narrow pleating plates of uniform width and several shallow pleating plates with uniform groove depth, it is easy to make pleated skirts with narrow and short pleats. This is convenient and quick, and ensures that the width of each pleat is consistent, resulting in strong product consistency. In addition, the width of the groove can be set according to the needs, and a corresponding pleating plate with a matching width can be set, or the depth of the groove can be set according to the needs, so that pleated skirts with various pleat lengths and pleat widths can be made.

[0050] A pleated skirt is a skirt whose body is made up of many fine, vertical pleats. It has a strong three-dimensional effect, is beautiful and attractive, and is very popular among female consumers.

[0051] Currently, garment manufacturers typically use specialized pleating machines to create the pleats on pleated skirts. This process is complex, and pleating machines can only produce wider pleats. Furthermore, the pleats must be of uniform width along the length of the skirt. For pleated skirts with narrower and shorter pleats, it is impossible to rely on pleating machines; they must be made manually, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and results in poor product consistency.

[0052] Therefore, this utility model provides a template for making pleated skirts, which is used to assist manual pleating of cut pieces. It can easily produce pleated skirts with narrow and short pleats, greatly improving efficiency and ensuring that the width of each pleat is consistent, resulting in strong product consistency.

[0053] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In a specific embodiment, the template for making the pleated skirt includes a base plate 1, a cover plate 2, and pleating plates 3. The base plate 1 is provided with a first sewing channel 100, a side fastener for the cut piece, and a slot 102. The first sewing channel 100 is arranged horizontally. The side fastener for the cut piece is located at one end of the first sewing channel 100 to fix one side of the cut piece. Several slots 102 are provided, and several slots 102 are arranged horizontally on one side of the first sewing channel 100. The cover plate 2 is provided with a second sewing channel 200. When the cover plate 2 is placed on the base plate 1, the second sewing channel 200 overlaps with the first sewing channel 100. Several pleating plates 3 are provided. One end of the pleating plate 3 is provided with an embedding groove 300 into which a cut piece can be inserted. After the pleating plate 3 is flipped over, the other end of the pleating plate 3 can be inserted into the slot 102.

[0054] The template for making a pleated skirt supports the cut pieces on a base plate 1, allowing the pieces to be laid flat on the base plate 1. Side fasteners on the base plate 1 secure the sides of the cut pieces, assisting the operator in pleating and preventing displacement. A slot 102 on the base plate 1 secures a pleating board 3. The pleating board 3 has an insert groove 300 into which the cut pieces 5 can be inserted. The insert groove 300 is used to pleat the cut pieces 5. After the cut pieces 5 are secured by the side fasteners, the pleating board 3 can be used. The cut pieces 5 are inserted into the insert groove 300 of the pleating board 3. Then, the pleating board 3 is flipped until the cut pieces 5 form pleats. Finally, the pleating board 3 is secured in the slot 102 to fix it in place. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 This completes one pleat. Repeat this process with several pleating boards 3 until the cut piece 5 is fully pleated to form a Venetian pleat. Then, cover the cut piece 5 with the cover plate 2 to flatten it. At this point, the second sewing channel 200 of the cover plate 2 coincides with the first sewing channel 100 of the base plate 1. Sewing equipment can then be used to sew at the overlapping second sewing channel 200 and first sewing channel 100.

[0055] By using several narrow pleating plates 3 of uniform width and several shallow pleating plates 3 with uniform depth of insertion groove 300, the cut piece 5 is constrained by the insertion groove 300 of the pleating plates 3 to form Venetian pleats. This makes it easy to make pleated skirts with narrow and short pleats, which is convenient and quick, and ensures that the width of each pleat is consistent, resulting in strong product consistency. In addition, the width of the slot 102 can be set according to the requirements, and a pleating plate 3 with a matching width can be set accordingly, or the depth of the insertion groove 300 can be set according to the requirements, so that pleated skirts with various pleat lengths and pleat widths can be made.

[0056] In some embodiments, the base plate 1 and the cover plate 2 can be transparent acrylic sheets, which facilitates observation of the cut piece 5 after pleating, so as to sort out the pleats of the cut piece 5.

[0057] The side-edge fixing member of the cut piece is a side-edge fixing structure used to detachably fix the side edge of the cut piece to prevent the cut piece from shifting during pleating. In some embodiments, the side-edge fixing member of the cut piece can be a clamping structure, that is, a clamp, such as an elastic clamp plate provided on the base plate 1. The elastic clamp plate is fixed to the base plate 1 by an elastic structure, and the elastic clamp plate can clamp the side edge of the cut piece to the base plate 1.

[0058] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the side fixing member of the cut piece can also be an adhesive strip 101. The adhesive strip 101 is a double-sided adhesive strip. One side of the double-sided adhesive strip is bonded to the base plate 1, and the other side of the double-sided adhesive strip is used to stick the cut piece to prevent the cut piece from moving.

[0059] Please see Figure 1In some embodiments, the base plate 1 further includes a plurality of positioning strips 103. The positioning strips 103 are placed longitudinally, that is, orthogonally to the first sewing channel 100. The plurality of positioning strips 103 are arranged laterally on one side of the first sewing channel 100. The gap between adjacent positioning strips 103 forms the slot 102. The width of the gap is not less than the width of the pleating plate 3, that is, the pleating plate 3 can be just embedded in the gap and can be easily removed.

[0060] In some embodiments, the length of the pleated plate 3 is greater than the length of the slot 102, so that when the pleated plate 3 is embedded in the slot 102, the end of the pleated plate 3 away from the embedding groove 300 extends beyond the base plate 1, so as to facilitate the operator to remove the pleated plate 3.

[0061] In some embodiments, the width of each slot 102 of the base plate 1 is the same, and the width of the slot 102 is 1cm-1.5cm, that is, the spacing between the positioning strips 103 is equal, which is 1cm-1.5cm.

[0062] In some embodiments, the depth of the embedding groove 300 of the pleated plate 3 is 4cm-6cm.

[0063] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, the opening of the embedding groove 300 is funnel-shaped to facilitate the operator to embed the cut piece into the embedding groove 300.

[0064] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the pleating plate 3 and the base plate 1 can be set independently and not connected to each other. When in use, the pleating plate 3 is aligned with the position of the slot 102 by hand and then pressed into the slot 102. After pleating and covering the cover plate 2, the pleating plates 3 can be pulled out one by one for sewing.

[0065] In another embodiment, several positioning strips 103 are longitudinally movable at the base plate 1; the pleating plate 3 is rotatably connected to the positioning strips 103, and the pleating plate 3 is flipped and connected to the positioning strips 103, and after flipping, the pleating plate 3 is inserted into the slot 102, with several pleating plates 3 connected one-to-one to several positioning strips 103. After pleating and covering with the cover plate 2, the positioning strips 103 are moved longitudinally along the pleating plate 3, so that the pleating plate 3 can be pulled out from the cut piece for sewing; the pleating plate 3 and the positioning strips 103 are connected as a whole, and the several pleating plates 3 are not scattered small parts, which can effectively prevent loss.

[0066] Please see Figure 4In some embodiments, a base 6 is also included. The base 6 is longitudinally detachably disposed on the base plate 1 and located on one side of the first sewing channel 100. Several positioning strips 103 are disposed on the base 6. After pleating and covering with the cover plate 2, the base 6 can be moved longitudinally to remove it from the base plate 1, so that all the pleating plates 3 can be simultaneously removed from the cut piece, and sewing can then be performed.

[0067] In a further embodiment, the base plate 1 is provided with a mounting groove 105 arranged longitudinally, and the base 6 is mounted in the mounting groove 105. See also... Figure 4 The base 6 can be moved longitudinally to be embedded in the mounting groove 105, and when the base 6 is embedded in the mounting groove 105, the surface of the base 6 is flush with the surface of the base plate 1; please refer to Figure 5 It can also be moved longitudinally to be removed from the mounting slot 105.

[0068] Please see Figure 4 The pleating plate 3 is connected to the longitudinal edge of the positioning strip 103 near the side fixing member of the cut piece (that is, the longitudinal edge of the slot 102 away from the side fixing member of the cut piece). The pleating plate 3 can be flipped laterally around the longitudinal edge of the positioning strip 103 to be embedded in the slot 102. Before use, and during use, arrange the cut piece on the base plate 1, then fix it with the side positioning member of the cut piece, then embed the side of the cut piece into the embedding slots 300 of all the pleating plates 3, and then flip the pleating plates 180° in sequence. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 This allows for the formation of venetian pleats without the need for manual alignment, making it convenient and quick. In some embodiments, the pleating plate 3 is connected to the side of the slot 102 via a flexible connecting strip, which can be adhesive tape.

[0069] In other embodiments, the pleated plate 3 is connected to the side of the slot 102 by a hinge.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first sewing channel 100 has at least two lines, and each of the first sewing channels 100 is arranged longitudinally; the number of the second sewing channels 200 is the same as the number of the first sewing channels 100, and when the cover plate 2 is placed on the bottom plate 1, each of the second sewing channels 200 overlaps with each of the first sewing channels 100 one-to-one.

[0071] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, both the first sewing channel 100 and the second sewing channel 200 are provided with two lines, and the cut piece side plate fixing member is located between the two first sewing channels 100 of the base plate 1.

[0072] In some embodiments, the base plate 1 further includes a cut piece alignment strip 104, which is arranged laterally and located between the slot 102 and the first sewing channel 100. The cut piece alignment strip 104 is a marker line used for aligning the upper edges of the cut pieces to ensure consistent sewing lines.

[0073] In some embodiments, the base plate 1 is provided with a plurality of pairs of holes, and the cover plate 2 is provided with a plurality of pairs of protrusions. When the base plate 1 covers the cover plate 2, the plurality of protrusions pass through the plurality of holes one by one, thereby restricting the movement of the cover plate 2 relative to the base plate 1.

[0074] In some embodiments, the base plate 1 and the cover plate 2 are rotatably connected, and the cover plate 2 can be flipped over to cover the base plate 1.

[0075] In some embodiments, the cover plate 2 is hinged to one side of the base plate 1 by a flexible connecting strip or a hinge.

[0076] In some embodiments, both the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1 are provided with magnetic suction elements 4. When the cover plate 2 is placed on the bottom plate 1, the magnetic suction elements 4 on the bottom plate 1 and the cover plate 2 correspond to each other, and the cover plate 2 and the bottom plate 1 are attracted together by the magnetic suction elements 4 to clamp the pleated cut pieces.

[0077] In some embodiments, the cover plate 2 further includes a piece pressing strip 201, which is arranged laterally and located on the side of the second sewing channel 200 away from the slot 102, for fixing pleats after the cover plate 2 is closed. When the cover plate 2 is placed on the base plate 1, the piece pressing strip 201 flattens the pleated pieces.

[0078] In some embodiments, the surface of the cutting strip 201 is rough to increase the friction between the cutting strip 201 and the cutting piece, prevent the cutting piece from shifting easily under force, and ensure that the cutting piece can be pressed tightly.

[0079] In some embodiments, the material of the cut strip 201 may be a nylon strip.

[0080] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this application, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. Any technical solutions that are based on the essential concept of this application and utilize the content described in the text and drawings of this application, resulting in equivalent structural or procedural substitutions or modifications, as well as the direct or indirect application of the technical solutions of the above embodiments to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of patent protection of this application.
