Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heated cotton clothing manufacturing technology, specifically a special tool for manufacturing heated cotton clothing. Background Technology

[0002] In the garment manufacturing industry, various specialized tools and auxiliary molds are often required to ensure the processing precision and quality of products. This is especially true in the production of smart garments with integrated heating elements, such as heated cotton-padded clothing, where the process complexity far exceeds that of ordinary clothing. One crucial and highly demanding step is safely, securely, and aesthetically pleasingly sewing the control circuit switch (hereinafter referred to as "the switch") into the designated position on the cotton-padded clothing. However, currently, the electric heating elements on cotton-padded garments are hand-sewn using only the individual skills and experience of the operators. Since the placement of the switches on the fabric relies entirely on the operator's visual estimation, deviations are highly likely, making it difficult to guarantee product consistency and severely impacting the aesthetics of the finished product. Furthermore, the direction and spacing of the sewing stitches, as well as their distance from the switch edge, lack effective physical constraints and guidance. This easily leads to irregular stitches, resulting in a low product qualification rate. To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a special tool for making heat-generating cotton clothing. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present invention aims to provide a special tool for making heated cotton clothing, which is mainly used to solve the problem that the heating elements on cotton clothing are currently hand-sewn by relying solely on the personal skills and experience of the operators. This not only makes it difficult to ensure the consistency of the products and seriously affects the appearance of the finished products, but also easily produces irregular stitches, resulting in a low product qualification rate.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A special tool for making heated cotton clothing includes a mold body, which includes a pressure plate and a base plate. Adhesive tape is pasted on one side of the top of the pressure plate, and the other side of the tape is fixedly connected to the base plate. A cavity for accommodating and positioning circuit switching elements is formed on the pressure plate. A groove for guiding the sewing stitch path is formed on one side of the cavity on the pressure plate. A fixing structure is provided on the pressure plate and the base plate.

[0005] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model: 1. Working principle: The core of this tool consists of a pressure plate and a base plate connected by tape. After unfolding the pressure plate and the base plate, the cotton coat is laid on the base plate. Then, the pressure plate is rotated to accurately place the circuit switch element into the cavity on the pressure plate. The pressure plate is continued to be rotated to press the cotton coat tightly, and the switch element is sealed in the cavity and its position is completely fixed. The operator sews along the preset groove on the pressure plate. After sewing is completed, the pressure plate is lifted again to take out the finished product.

[0006] 2. Beneficial effects: The cavity completely limits the position of the switching element, thus completely solving the deviation problem of manual placement. At the same time, it avoids the needle from directly hitting and damaging the electronic components during sewing. The groove provides a unique path for sewing, ensuring that the direction, spacing and shape of the stitches are completely uniform, which greatly improves the aesthetics and consistency of the product. The tape hinge design allows the pressure plate to open and close easily, making it convenient to put in and take out the workpiece. It is smoother than the operation of the integral mold and improves efficiency.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing structure includes a magnet that passes through and is fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate away from the tape, and the magnets are symmetrically arranged on the pressure plate. An iron sheet that attracts the magnet is passed through and fixedly connected to the bottom plate. When the pressure plate is closed, the magnet and the iron sheet attract each other, generating a strong magnetic force that firmly clamps the fabric between the pressure plate and the bottom plate. This effectively prevents any movement or slippage of the tools and fabric during the sewing process, which is a key prerequisite for ensuring high-precision sewing. Moreover, the magnetic fixing method is faster and more convenient than mechanical fixing such as screws. The opening and closing operation can be completed by hand, which is very suitable for fast-paced production line operations.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the presser plate has an annular groove at the edge of the thread groove. During sewing, the presser foot of the sewing machine will be embedded in this annular groove. The annular groove physically restricts the left-right and up-down wobbling of the presser foot, realizing "track-like" absolute guidance. This completely eliminates the possibility of uneven stitches or uneven stitch length caused by presser foot slippage, making the sewing effect extremely stable and perfect.

[0009] Preferably, both the pressure plate and the base plate are made of transparent acrylic material, allowing the operator to clearly see the exact position of the lower-level switch components, the condition of the wire ends, and the fabric through the mold, ensuring that the components are placed in place and free of debris, greatly improving the accuracy and reliability of the operation.

[0010] Preferably, silicone pads are fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate and the base plate that contacts the fabric. The high coefficient of friction of silicone can greatly increase the friction between the tool and the fabric, providing a primary fixing effect. Together with the magnetic main fixing structure, it forms a double guarantee. The soft silicone will not crush or scratch the fabric, avoiding indentations and damage on the finished product and improving the product's quality.

[0011] Preferably, the top of the pressure plate is provided with anti-slip texture, which increases the friction between the hand and the mold, making it easier for the operator to press and open the mold, and less prone to slipping, thus improving the safety and comfort of operation.

[0012] Preferably, the corners of the pressure plate and the base plate are rounded. The smooth corners will not snag or scratch expensive clothing fabrics, and will also effectively avoid discomfort or scratches to operators caused by sharp corners. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-4 A special tool for making heated cotton clothing includes a mold body 1, which includes a pressure plate 101 and a base plate 102. Adhesive tape 103 is pasted on one side of the top of the pressure plate 101, and the other side of the adhesive tape 103 is fixedly connected to the base plate 102. The core of the tool is a pressure plate 101 and a base plate 102 hinged together by the adhesive tape 103. When in use, the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102 are unfolded, and then the cotton clothing is laid on the base plate 102. The pressure plate 101 has a cavity 2 for accommodating and positioning the circuit switch element. Rotating the pressure plate 101 allows the circuit switch element to be precisely placed into the cavity 2 on the pressure plate 101. Continuing to rotate the pressure plate 101 presses the cotton garment tightly. The pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102 are equipped with a fixing structure, which firmly clamps the fabric between the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102. The switch element is enclosed in the cavity 2 and its position is completely fixed. The pressure plate 101 has a groove 3 on one side of the cavity 2 for guiding the sewing stitch path. The operator sews along the preset groove 3 on the pressure plate 101. After sewing is completed, the pressure plate 101 is lifted again to remove the finished product.

[0017] More specifically, the fixing structure includes a magnet 4 that passes through and is fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate 101 away from the tape 103, and the magnet 4 is symmetrically arranged on the pressure plate 101. An iron sheet 5 that is attracted to the magnet 4 passes through and is fixedly connected to the base plate 102. When the pressure plate 101 is closed, the magnet 4 and the iron sheet 5 attract each other and generate a strong magnetic force, which firmly clamps the fabric between the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102. This effectively prevents any movement or slippage of tools and fabric during the sewing process, which is a key prerequisite for ensuring high-precision sewing. Moreover, the magnetic fixing method is faster and more convenient than mechanical fixing such as screws. The opening and closing operation can be completed by hand, which is very suitable for fast-paced production line operations.

[0018] More specifically, the top of the presser plate 101 is provided with an annular groove 6 at the edge of the thread groove 3. During sewing, the presser foot of the sewing machine will be embedded in this annular groove 6. The annular groove 6 physically restricts the left-right and up-down wobbling of the presser foot of the sewing machine, realizing "track-like" absolute guidance, completely eliminating the possibility of uneven stitches or uneven stitch length caused by the presser foot slipping, so that the sewing effect reaches the ultimate stability and perfection.

[0019] More specifically, both the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102 are made of transparent acrylic material. The operator can clearly see the exact position of the lower-level switch components, the condition of the wire ends, and the condition of the fabric through the mold, ensuring that the components are placed in place and free of debris, which greatly improves the accuracy and reliability of the operation.

[0020] More specifically, silicone pads 7 are fixedly connected to the side of the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102 that are in contact with the fabric. The high coefficient of friction of silicone can greatly increase the friction between the tool and the fabric, providing a primary fixing effect. Together with the magnetic main fixing structure, they form a double insurance. The soft silicone will not crush or scratch the fabric, avoiding indentations and damage on the finished product and improving the product's quality.

[0021] More specifically, the top of the pressure plate 101 is provided with anti-slip texture 8, which increases the friction between the hand and the mold, making it easier for the operator to press and open the mold, and less prone to slipping, thus improving the safety and comfort of operation.

[0022] More specifically, the corners of the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102 are rounded. The smooth corners will not snag or scratch expensive clothing fabrics, and will effectively avoid discomfort or scratches to operators caused by sharp corners.

[0023] As can be seen from the above, the specific embodiments of this utility model are as follows: When using this tool, first place the entire unit on the workbench, then unfold the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102, and then lay the cotton garment on the base plate 102. Rotate the pressure plate 101 to precisely place the circuit switch element into the cavity 2 on the pressure plate 101. Continue to rotate the pressure plate 101 to press the cotton garment tightly. The magnet 4 and the iron sheet 5 attract each other, generating a strong magnetic force, which firmly clamps the fabric between the pressure plate 101 and the base plate 102, effectively preventing any movement or sliding of the tool and fabric during the sewing process. At this time, the switch element is enclosed in the cavity 2 and its position is completely fixed. When sewing, the presser foot of the sewing machine will be embedded in this annular groove 6 and run. The annular groove 6 physically restricts the left and right and up and down wobbling of the presser foot of the sewing machine. The operator sews along the preset thread groove 3 on the pressure plate 101. After sewing is completed, lift the pressure plate 101 again to take out the finished product.

[0024] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
