The present invention relates to a down cloth and manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to a seamless down cloth and manufacturing method thereof.
Since various down clothes were at the market, the clothes are sewed into several areas for preventing from down shifting, and such clothes are with many shortcomings as following descriptions. The down includes the feature of slippery that will cause the down spilled from the suture to effect the outlook and be discomfort. And, due to the clothes have sutures, the clothes cannot be used for water proof and wind proof. Accordingly, as the ventilations of the shell fabric, the lining, and the padding are worse, the moisture will not be emanated easily, therefore, comfortable and warm keeping will not be provided sequentially. Under that, the clothes will not be dried after laundering; thereafter, the down will be denaturalization easily, such that will emanate odor. Furthermore, the down clothes are heavier that effects the moving for people at many circumstances, and the clothes are looked without featly in accordance with the seams.
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a seamless down cloth and manufacturing method thereof, wherein a shell fabric of which can be divided into several square areas by hot pasting, such that the shell fabric can be with seamless.
It is a secondary object of the present invention to provide a seamless down cloth and manufacturing method thereof to solute the problem of down spilled from the sutures and provide better water proof and warm keeping, consequently, the weight of cloth is lighter, the outlook is more featly.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a seamless down cloth and manufacturing method thereof, wherein the pasted areas of cloth can be designed to any patterns for various outlook of the cloth.
To achieve the previous mentioned objects, the present invention provides a seamless down cloth, comprising a shell fabric, a lining, and down, the down provided between the shell fabric and the lining, wherein a plurality of down areas and a plurality of pasted areas are spread around the shell fabric, the shell fabric is with seamless.
To achieve the previous mentioned objects, the present invention further provides a seamless down cloth manufacturing method, comprising the steps of patterning for a designed pattern of a down cloth; cutting the pattern; forming the down cloth; designing a pasted pattern; cutting the pasted pattern and a shell fabric; stacking a lining, the pasted pattern, and the shell fabric in order according to the pattern and pasting; filling down into a plurality of down areas regarding as the required weight for each; and sewing at least one accessory on the down cloth.
It will be understood that the figures are not to scale since the individual layers are too thin and the thickness differences of various layers too great to permit depiction to scale.
FIG. 1 is a structure diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention seamless down cloth; and
FIG. 2 is a flow chart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention seamless down cloth manufacturing method.
The structural features and the effects to be achieved may further be understood and appreciated by reference to the presently preferred embodiments together with the detailed description.
First, referring to the FIG. 1, is a structure diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention seamless down cloth. The down cloth 10 comprises a shell fabric 11, a lining 13, and down (not shown), wherein the down are provided between the shell fabric 11 and the lining 13, a plurality of down areas 111 and a plurality of pasted areas 113 are spread around the shell fabric 11, the shell fabric 11 is with seamless. The pasting material of the pasted areas can be a PU adhesive film or s PU glue, and the pasted areas can be designed as any patterns, such as a line type, a curve type, or a ravine type, therefore, the down cloth 10 will be with various outlooks.
The present invention disclosed a seamless skill that provides several pasted areas to divide the shell fabric 11 into several down areas 111, and fills proper down into each down area, such that the down will not be spilled easily from suture, even the down is very slippery, thus, the cloth will be more comfortable and good looking, furthermore, since the cloth is without any sutures and stitches, the water proof can be more efficiency according to the various functions of the cloth, sequentially, the material of shell fabric 11 can be with functions of water proof, wind proof, moisture conductivity, or the combination thereof, such that can provide the functions of well water proof for the cloth, and since the seamless feature of the cloth can be used for preventing the air convection that can cause heat flowing away, the cloth will be better on warm keeping. And further, the hem width of the shell fabric 11 is lesser, according to the seamless for the cloth. Especially, the down cloth can be altered to comprise two layers only, which are the shell fabric 11 and the lining 13, instead of the original three layers, which are the shell fabric, the lining, and the padding, thus, the weight of the cloth can be reduced efficiently.
Referring to FIG. 2, is a flow chart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention seamless down cloth manufacturing method. The method comprises the steps of:
The mentioned way of cutting can be selectively as a manual cutting, a punching cutting, and a laser cutting. Accordingly, the laser cutting can be implemented by the process of designing the pasted pattern by the computer software, setting the energy and the velocity of the laser cutting machine, and cutting the pasted pattern by the laser cutting machine, wherein the energy of that can be set around 90 to 98, the velocity of that can be set around 12 to 15, consequently, the different widths of pasted area 113 material and shell fabric 11 are required different energy and velocity. The outermost layer of the shell fabric 11 is processed with a thinnest long lasting spray-on PU film during the manufacturing of the shell fabric 11, thus, drops will be pushed through under certain moist circumstances, the seamless and smoother surface of the cloth can be used to alter the water run-off, such that the drops will be slipped off rapidly, therefore, the water proof function can be provided according to the down cloth 10 surely. At raining, the down cloth having water proof function can prevent the lost of body temperature, furthermore, which is more comfortable for people.
The lining 13, pasted pattern, and the shell fabric 11 are pasted by hot pasting, for example, setting the parameters of the temperature, the pressure, and the pressing period time of a hot pasting machine (not shown), the lining 13, the pasted pattern, and the shell fabric 11 are stacked in order according to the sample and pasted by the hot pasting machine. Of course, the manufacturer can test the parameters of temperature, the pressure, and the pressing period time first for obtaining the optimal value to set the parameters of the hot pasting machine. Sequentially, once the temperature is higher, or the pressing period time is longer, the shell fabric 11 will be burned, that is, the shell fabric 11 will be with bad ventilation and effect the function of water proof; on the other hand, once the pressing period time is shorter, the temperature is lower, or the pressure is insufficient, the shell fabric 11 and the lining 13 will be pasted insecurely, such that the down between the shell fabric 11 and the lining 13 will move together since the insecure pasted. Accordingly, the function of warm keeping for the cloth will be affected.
Finally, the seamless down cloth 10 manufactured from the pervious mentioned methods can prevent the attrition of stitches and sutures in accordance the laser cutting, hot pasting, and so on. The outlook of the down cloth 10 is more featly and smoother. Wherein, the material of the shell fabric 11 can be selected with lighter, tender, and more comfortable, further, the function of that can be selected with water proof, snow proof, wind proof, moisture conductivity, ventilation, oil proof, dirty proof, and so on.
The foregoing description is merely one embodiment of present invention and not considered as restrictive. All equivalent variations and modifications in process, method, feature, and spirit in accordance with the appended claims may be made without in any way from the scope of the invention.
