Referring to FIG. 3, the control part 150 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may control the rotation of the moving roller 131. When the mattress 10 is placed inside the sterilization part 120, the control part 150 may control the moving roller 131 to rotate repeatedly in forward and reverse directions so that vibration is applied to the mattress 10.


The forward rotation of the moving roller 131 is a rotation for moving the mattress 10 from one side of the sterilization part 120 to the other side of the sterilization part 120, and the reverse rotation of the moving roller 131 is a rotation for moving the mattress 10 from the other side of the sterilization part 120 to one side of the sterilization part 120.


When the moving roller 131 repeatedly rotates in the forward and reverse directions by controlling the rotation of the moving roller 131 through the control part 150, the mattress 10 vibrates while repeatedly moving forward and backward inside the sterilization part 120.


When the mattress 10 is vibrated by the moving roller 131, a contamination source such as dust attached to the mattress 10 may be removed. Here, the control part 150 controls the moving roller 131 to repeatedly rotate in the forward and reverse directions, and the number of forward rotations of the moving roller 131 may be greater than the number of reverse rotations of the moving roller 131.


As described above, the mattress 10 is sterilized while being moved from one side of the sterilization part 120 to the other side thereof. Thus, in order to move the mattress 10 from one side of the sterilization part 120 to the other side thereof, the number of forward rotations of the moving roller 131 should be greater than the number of reverse rotations of the moving roller 131.


As described above, when the moving roller 131 repeatedly rotates in the forward and reverse directions through the control part 150, and the number of forward rotations of the moving roller 131 is greater than the number of reverse rotations of the moving roller 131, the mattress 10 may be moved from one side of the sterilization part 120 to the other side thereof while being vibrated.

Hereinafter, a mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.


The present disclosure relates to a mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part, and relates to a mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part, capable of processing edges of a mattress by easily rotating the mattress while pushing and rotating the mattress through the rotation driving part by adjusting directions of a conveyor belt provided in a frame.


The mattress processed through the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a mattress of a bed, but is not limited thereto, and may be formed in various forms as long as edges thereof can be processed.


In addition, a processing operation performed by the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a mattress sewing operation through a sewing device, but is not limited thereto, and may include various operations as long as they are operations to process edges of a mattress.


Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a frame 1110, a processing part 1120, a first shaft 1131, a second shaft 1132, a third shaft 1133, and a conveyor belt 1140.


The frame 1110 may be formed in a rectangular plate shape, may be a work bench on which the mattress 10 is placed, and may be formed of a frame in which a plate is installed on an upper portion thereof so that edges of the mattress 10 are processed.


The processing part 1120 is disposed on a side surface of the frame 1110, and may process the edges of the mattress 10. The processing part 1120 may be a device capable of sewing the edges of the mattress 10. However, the processing part 1120 is not limited thereto, and the processing part 1120 may include various devices as long as they are devices capable of processing the edges of the mattress 10. The edges of the mattress 10 may be processed while passing through the processing part 1120. The mattress 10 is formed in a rectangular shape. One edge of the mattress 10 passes through the processing part 1120, and then, the mattress 10 is rotated and the other edge of the mattress 10 is processed.


A conventional mattress processing apparatus does not have a configuration capable of rotating the mattress. Since the mattress has a large volume and a significant weight, through the conventional mattress processing apparatus, it is difficult to process the mattress while rotating the mattress.


In order to solve this problem, in the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the frame 1110 may be divided into a plurality of frames through the first shaft 1131, the second shaft 1132, and the third shaft 1133, and a rotation driving part 1150 may rotate the mattress while controlling a moving direction of the conveyor belt 1140 provided in the frame 1110.


Referring to FIG. 6, the first shaft 1131 divides the frame 1110 into frames while extending in a longitudinal direction. The first shaft 1131 vertically divides the frame 1110 into one side and the other side of the frame 1110.


Here, the longitudinal direction may be a vertical direction (in FIG. 6, a width direction in which the frame 1110 extends short) with respect to FIG. 6, and a transverse direction may be a horizontal direction (in FIG. 6, a width direction in which the frame 1110 extends long) with respect to FIG. 6. In addition, with respect to FIG. 6, one side of the frame 1110 may be a side of the first shaft 1131 in a rightward direction, and the other side of the frame 1110 may be a side of the first shaft 1131 in a leftward direction.


The second shaft 1132 divides one side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131, while extending in the transverse direction. The third shaft 1133 divides the other side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing the frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131, while extending in the transverse direction.


That is, the second shaft 1132 horizontally divides one side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing the frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131, and the third shaft 1133 horizontally divides the other side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing the frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131.


Here, the second shaft 1132 and the third shaft 1133 may not be disposed on the same line. Referring to FIG. 6, one side and the other side of the frame 1110 may be divided such that the second shaft 1132 and the third shaft 1133 are not disposed on a single horizontal line.


Specifically, the second shaft 1132 may horizontally divide one side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing the frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131, equally, and the third shaft 1133 may horizontally divide the other side of the frame 1110, which is obtained by dividing the frame 1110 through the first shaft 1131, unequally.


The mattress 10 may be moved while being placed on the frame 1110, and one side of the frame 1110 may be used as a point at which the mattress 10 is moved in the transverse direction, and thus the second shaft 1132 may horizontally divide one side of the frame 1110 into frames with equal areas.


In addition, as will be described below, since the other side of the frame 1110 may be used as a point at which the mattress 10 is rotated, the third shaft 1133 preferably horizontally divides the other side of the frame 1110 into frames with unequal areas.


The conveyor belt 1140 is provided in each of the divided frames 1110, and may move in a direction parallel to the transverse direction. The mattress 10 may be moved or rotated by the movement of the conveyor belt 1140 provided in the frame 1110, and the conveyor belt 1140 provided in each of the divided frames 1110 may be moved independently.


Specifically, the frame 1110 may be divided into a first frame 1111, a second frame 1112, a third frame 1113, and a fourth frame 1114, and the conveyor belt 1140 may include a first conveyor belt 1141, a second conveyor belt 1142, a third conveyor belt 1143, and a fourth conveyor belt 1144.


Referring to FIGS. 6 and 7, the first frame 1111 is disposed on one side of the first shaft 1131 and on an upper side of the second shaft 1132, and the second frame 1112 is disposed on the other side of the first shaft 1131 and on an upper side of the third shaft 1133.


The third frame 1113 is disposed on the other side of the first shaft 1131 and on a lower side of the third shaft 1133, and the fourth frame 1114 is disposed on one side of the first shaft 1131 and on a lower side the second shaft 1132.


The first conveyor belt 1141 may be provided in the first frame 1111 and may move forward or backward in a direction parallel to the transverse direction, and the second conveyor belt 1142 may be provided in the second frame 1112 and may move forward or backward in a direction parallel to the transverse direction.


The third conveyor belt 1143 is provided in the third frame 1113 and may move forward or backward in a direction parallel to the transverse direction, and the fourth conveyor belt 1144 is provided in the fourth frame 1114 and may move forward or backward in a direction parallel to the transverse direction.


The mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include the rotation driving part 1150 that is formed in a bar shape and capable of rotating the mattress 10.


The rotation driving part 1150 is formed in a bar shape and may rotate, and is installed on the side surface of the frame 1110 and may rotate toward the inside of the frame 1110.


Referring to FIG. 8, as one side of the rotation driving part 1150 is coupled to a side portion of the frame 1110, the other side of the rotation driving part 1150 may rotate around the one side in a direction from the side portion of the frame 1110 toward the inside of the frame 1110.


Specifically, the rotation driving part 1150 may be installed on a side surface of the second frame 1112. One side of the rotation driving part 1150 is installed in the second frame 1112 at a point close to the first shaft 1131 and extends along the side surface of the second frame 1112.


The rotation driving part 1150 may rotate around one side thereof, and the rotation driving part 1150 may sweep an upper portion of the second frame 1112 while rotating.


The mattress 10 moved to the second frame 1112 may rotate by the operation of the rotation driving part 1150. Specifically, the edge of the mattress 10, which is processed through the processing part 1120, is brought into contact with the rotation driving part 1150 while being moved to the second frame 1112. When the rotation driving part 1150 rotates, the mattress 10 in contact with the rotation driving part 1150 rotates while being pushed.


Referring to FIG. 9, the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a driving part 1160.


The driving part 1160 is provided on an upper portion of the rotation driving part 1150 and may rotate together with the rotation driving part 1150 while being raisable and lowerable with respect to the rotation driving part 1150.


The driving part 1160 fixes the mattress 10 when rotating the mattress 10 through the rotation driving part 1150. When the mattress 10 is not fixed when the mattress 10 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, there is a risk that the mattress 10 is not rotated in a target direction while being separated from the rotation driving part 1150.


The driving part 1160 is provided to prevent such a phenomenon, and the driving part 1160 may be formed in a bar shape or a rod shape. The driving part 1160 fixes an upper surface of the mattress 10 while moving downward before the rotation driving part 1150 rotates.


The driving part 1160 may rotate together with the rotation driving part 1150, and when the mattress 10 is fixed through the driving part 1160, the mattress 10 may be rotated while being prevented from being separated from the rotation driving part 1150.


The mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a control part capable of controlling the movement of the conveyor belt 1140. The control part may control the movement of each of the first conveyor belt 1141, the second conveyor belt 1142, the third conveyor belt 1143, and the fourth conveyor belt 1144.


Referring to FIG. 10, when the mattress 10 placed on the second frame 1112 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, the control part may control the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 such that the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 move in opposite directions.


When the mattress 10 placed on the second frame 1112 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, there is a risk that the mattress 10 is not smoothly rotated due to a frictional force between the mattress 10 and the conveyor belt 1140.


In order to prevent such a phenomenon, the control part may control the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 such that the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 move in opposite directions.


Specifically, referring to FIG. 10, when the mattress 10 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, the upper portion (a portion coming in contact with the rotation driving part 1150) of the mattress 10 is rotated leftward with respect to FIG. 10, and a lower portion (a portion opposite to the portion coming in contact with the rotation driving part 1150) of the mattress 10 is rotated rightward with respect to FIG. 10.


Accordingly, the control part may control such that the second conveyor belt 1142 moves leftward with respect to FIG. 10 and the third conveyor belt 1143 moves rightward with respect to FIG. 10. The mattress 10 may be easily rotated by the above-described operation of the control part and the rotation driving part 1150.


Here, the other side of the frame 1110 may be divided by the third shaft 1133 so that an area of the third frame 1113 is larger than an area of the second frame 1112.


As described above, the third shaft 1133 may horizontally divide the other side of the frame 1110 unequally, and when the other side of the frame 1110 is divided through the third shaft 1133, the area of the third frame 1113 may be larger than the area of the second frame 1112.


Since the rotation driving part 1150 is provided on the side surface of the second frame 1112 and rotates, a rotation radius of the mattress 10 in the portion of the third frame 1113 is larger than the rotation radius of the mattress 10 in the portion of the second frame 1112.


That is, when the mattress 10 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, the mattress 10 in the portion of the third frame 1113 should be rotated with a larger radius. Accordingly, the mattress 10 may be easily rotated when the lower portion (a portion opposite to the portion coming in contact with the rotation driving part 1150) of the mattress 10 placed on the third frame 1113 receives a greater force.


To this end, the area of the third frame 1113 may be larger than the area of the second frame 1112, and as the area of the third frame 1113 is increased, a greater force may be provided to the lower portion of the mattress 10.


In addition, in order to rotate the mattress 10 in the target direction, the control part may control the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 such that the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 move at the same speed.


Since there is a risk that the mattress 10 is rotated in a direction different from the target direction when the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 do not move at the same speed, the control part may control the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 such that the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 move at the same speed.


However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the control part may control the second conveyor belt 1142 and the third conveyor belt 1143 to move at different speeds depending on the size of the mattress 10 or the direction in which the mattress 10 rotates.


Referring to FIG. 11, the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a turnover part 1170 formed in a bar shape. The turnover part 1170 may be installed on the second shaft 1132, and has one side coupled to the second shaft 1132, and thus the other side of the turnover part 1170 may rotate toward the upper portion of the frame 1110 around the coupled one side.


The turnover part 1170 may be used to turn the mattress 10 over. The turnover part 1170 may be raised while rotating in an upward direction in which an upper surface of the frame 1110 faces. One side of the turnover part 1170 may be coupled to the second shaft 1132, and may be coupled to the second shaft 1132 at a position close to the first shaft 1131.


When the mattress 10 is placed on the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114, the turnover part 1170 turns the mattress 10 over while rotating around one side thereof coupled to the second shaft 1132. The overturned mattress 10 is moved to the second frame 1112 and the third frame 1113.


The mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may operate as follows.


The mattress 10 is formed in a rectangular shape and has a predetermined thickness, and each of four edges of the mattress 10 should be sewn at the upper and lower surfaces of the mattress 10.


The mattress 10 is first placed on the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114 and passes through the processing part 1120, thereby sewing one edge of the The mattress 10 that has passed through the processing part 1120 is moved to the second frame 1112 and the third frame 1113, and the mattress 10 moved to the second frame 1112 and the third frame 1113 may be rotated by the rotation driving part 1150 and the driving part 1160.


In this case, the control part controls such that the second conveyor belt 1142 provided in the second frame 1112 and the third conveyor belt 1143 provided in the third frame 1113 move in opposite directions so that the mattress 10 rotates easily.


When the mattress 10 is rotated by the rotation driving part 1150, the conveyor belt 1140 is operated to place the mattress 10 again on the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114. Thereafter, another edge of the mattress 10 is sewn. All of the four edges of the mattress 10 may be sewn while repeating the above-described process.


Since the mattress 10 has a certain thickness, both the upper and lower surfaces of the mattress 10 should be sewn in order to manufacture the mattress 10. After all of the four edges of the upper surface of the mattress 10 are completely sewn, the mattress 10 may be turned over by the turnover part 1170 so that the four edges of the lower surface of the lower surface of the mattress 10 are sewn.


Specifically, when the mattress 10 is placed on the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114, the mattress 10 is turned over while the turnover part 1170 is rotated. The overturned mattress 10 is moved to the second frame 1112 and the third frame 1113, and the mattress 10 moved to the second frame 1112 and the third frame 1113 is moved again to the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114 by the operation of the conveyor belt 1140.


When the upper and lower surfaces of the mattress 10 are turned over by the turnover part 1170, and then, the mattress 10 is placed on the first frame 1111 and the fourth frame 1114 and the above-described process is repeated, the four edges of the lower surface of the mattress 10 may be sewn.


The mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure has the following effects.


In the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, four edges of the mattress 10 can be processed while easily rotating the mattress 10 by pushing and rotating the mattress 10 through the rotation driving part 1150 while adjusting the directions of the conveyor belts 1140 provided in the frames 1110.


The mattress 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is formed in a rectangular shape and has a predetermined thickness, and each of the four edges of the mattress 10 should be sewn at the upper and lower surfaces of the mattress 10.


In the mattress edge sewing apparatus having a rotation driving part according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, four edges of the upper surface of the mattress 10 can be processed while rotating the mattress 10 through the operation of the rotation driving part 1150 and the conveyor belt 1140. Thereafter, four edges of the lower surface of the mattress 10 can be processed as the mattress 10 is turned over by the turnover part 1170.


Hereinafter, a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.


The present disclosure relates to a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball, and relates to a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball, capable of processing an edge of a sheet by easily rotating the sheet by providing a rotating ball in a frame of a processing device configured to process an edge of a sheet.


A sheet processed by the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a sheet placed on the mattress, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the sheet may be a mattress.


In addition, a processing operation performed in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a sewing operation through a sewing apparatus such as a sewing machine, but is not limited thereto, and may include various operations as long as they are operations that process an edge of a sheet or a mattress.


Referring to FIG. 12, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a frame 2110, a processing part 2120, and a rotating ball 2130.


The frame 2110 is a work bench on which a mattress 10 is placed, and may be formed of a frame in which a plate is installed in an upper portion thereof so that an edge of the mattress 10 may be processed thereon. The frame 2110 may be formed in various shapes as long as the mattress 10 is placed and processed thereon.


The processing part 2120 may be disposed on one side of the frame 2110, and may process an edge of the mattress 10. The processing part 2120 is a device capable of sewing an edge of the mattress 10, and may be a device such as a sewing machine.


However, the processing part 2120 is not limited to the sewing machine, and may include various devices as long as they are devices capable of processing an edge of the mattress 10. For example, the processing part 2120 may be a device configured to seal and sew an edge of the mattress 10.


An edge of the mattress 10 may be processed while passing through the processing part 2120. The mattress 10 is formed in a rectangular shape, and after one edge of the mattress 10 passes through the processing part 2120, the mattress 10 is rotated so that another edge of the mattress 10 is processed.


A configuration capable of rotating a sheet is not provided in a conventional sheet processing device. Since a sheet has a large volume and a significant weight, through the conventional sheet processing device, it is difficult to process the sheet while rotating the sheet.


In order to solve the above problem, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may use the rotating balls 2130.


The rotating ball 2130 is provided in the frame 2110, and an insertion groove 2111 for inserting the rotating ball 2130 therein is formed in the frame 2110. The rotating ball 2130 is inserted into the insertion groove 2111, and is rotatable as a portion thereof protrudes from an upper portion of the frame 2110.


A plurality of rotating balls 2130 may be provided in the frame 2110, and the plurality of rotating balls 2130 may be formed to be spaced apart from each other. Referring to FIGS. 12 and 13, the mattress 10 is brought into contact with the rotating balls 2130 while being placed on the frame 2110, and as the rotating balls 2130 are rotatable, the mattress 10 placed on the frame 2110 may be easily rotated.


In general, the mattress 10 is difficult to rotate due to a frictional force generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 2110. However, when the rotatable rotating ball 2130 is used, the frictional force generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 2110 may be reduced, and as the rotating ball 2130 rotates, the mattress 10 may be easily rotated.


Referring to FIG. 14, the rotating ball 2130 may be formed in a spherical shape. The insertion groove 2111 may be formed in a spherical shape, and may be formed in a spherical shape whose upper portion is partially cut away.


An upper end of the rotating ball 2130 may be in contact with the mattress 10 when a portion of the rotating ball 2130 protrudes from the frame 2110, and as the insertion groove 2111 is formed in a spherical shape whose upper portion is cut away, an upper portion of the rotating ball 2130 formed in a spherical shape may protrude from the frame 2110.


The rotating ball 2130 is rotatable by 360° while being inserted into the insertion groove 2111, and the mattress 10 may be rotated or moved in various directions through the rotating ball 2130 rotatable by 360°.


According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating ball 2130 is formed in a spherical shape, and the insertion groove 2111 may be formed in a spherical shape whose upper portion is partially cut out, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. As long as the rotating ball 2130 can be rotated while partially protruding above the frame 2110, each of the rotating ball 2130 and the insertion groove 2111 may be formed in various shapes.


Referring to FIG. 15A, a roller 2131 in contact with the rotating ball 2130 may be provided on an inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111. The roller 2131 may be used to reduce the frictional force between the rotating ball 2130 and the insertion groove 2111, and may be provided between the rotating ball 2130 and the insertion groove 2111.


When the mattress 10 comes into contact with the rotating ball 2130, the rotating ball 2130 is pressed by the weight of the mattress 10, and thus, the rotating ball 2130 may be brought into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111.


When the rotating ball 2130 is brought into contact with the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111, the rotation of the rotating ball 2130 may be restricted by the frictional force generated between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111.


The roller 2131 is provided to prevent such a phenomenon, and may reduce the frictional force generated between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111 by having the roller 2131 rotatable around one axis between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111.


Referring to FIG. 15B, a spring 2132 may also be provided between the insertion groove 2111 and the rotating ball 2130. The spring 2132 may push the rotating ball 2130 to the outside when the rotating ball 2130 is pressed by the mattress 10.


As described above, the rotation of the rotating ball 2130 may be restricted by the frictional force generated between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111. However, when the spring 2132 is provided between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111, a contact area between the rotating ball 2130 and the insertion groove 2111 may be reduced by an elastic restoring force of the spring 2132.


Specifically, as the spring 2132 pushes up the rotating ball 2130 in an outward direction (an upward protruding direction of the frame 2110), the contact area between the rotating ball 2130 and the insertion groove 2111 may be reduced, and accordingly, the frictional force generated between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111 may be reduced.


Referring to FIG. 13, the plurality of rotating balls 2130 provided in the frame 2110 may be spaced apart from each other at an interval of 30 cm to 40 cm. When the interval of the plurality of rotating balls 2130 is too large (greater than 40 cm), the contact area between the mattress 10 and the frame 2110 may be increased due to the weight of the mattress 10.


When the contact area between the mattress 10 and the frame 2110 is increased, the frictional force between the mattress 10 and the frame 2110 may increase, and thus the mattress 10 may be difficult to rotate. Thus, the interval between the plurality of rotating balls 2130 provided in the frame 2110 may be less than 40 cm.


On the contrary, when the interval between the plurality of rotating balls 2130 is too small (less than 30 cm), an excessive number of the rotating balls 2130 are formed in the frame 2110, and thus, it is difficult to adjust a rotation direction of the mattress 10. Thus, the interval between the plurality of rotating balls 2130 provided in the frame 2110 may be greater than 30 cm.


Referring to FIGS. 16A and 16B, the rotating ball 2130 may be installed to be raisable and lowerable inside the insertion groove 2111. When the edge of the mattress 10 is being processed by operating the processing part 2120, it is preferable that the rotating ball 2130 is not in contact with the mattress 10.


When the rotating ball 2130 is in contact with the mattress 10 when the edge of the mattress 10 is being processed through the processing part 2120, the operation of the processing part 2120 may be affected by the rotation of the rotating ball 2130.


Thus, when the edge of the mattress 10 is being processed through the processing part 2120, it is preferable that the rotating ball 2130 is not in contact with the mattress 10. To this end, the rotating ball 2130 may be installed to be raisable and lowerable inside the insertion groove 2111.


Specifically, the rotating ball 2130 may be installed such that a portion of the rotating ball 2130 does not protrude above the frame 2110 when the rotating ball 2130 is lowered, and protrudes above the frame 2110 when the rotating ball 2130 is raised.


A moving part 2112 may be provided between the rotating ball 2130 and the inner circumferential surface of the insertion groove 2111 in order to raise or lower the rotating ball 2130. The moving part 2112 may move up or down the rotating ball 2130 while being in contact with one side of the rotating ball 2130, and may slidably move toward inside the insertion groove 2111.


The sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a switch 2140 capable of controlling the operation of the moving part 2112. The switch 2140 is a device capable of slidably moving the moving part 2112, and the raising or lowering of the rotating ball 2130 may be controlled through the switch 2140.


A user may raise the rotating ball 2130 through the switch 2140 only when the mattress 10 is rotated, and may lower the rotating ball 2130 through the switch 2140 when the edge of the mattress 10 is processed through the processing part 2120.


Referring to FIG. 17, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may operate the moving part 2112 through the switch 2140, and may also operate the moving part 2112 through a control part 2150 and a sensor part 2160.


The control part 2150 may control the operation of the moving part 2112, and may raise the rotating ball 2130 by operating the moving part 2112 when the mattress 10 is rotated as the operation of the processing part 2120 is stopped.


When an edge of the mattress 10 is being processed by operating the processing part 2120, the rotating ball 2130 may be lowered. When the rotating ball 2130 is raised when the edge of the mattress 10 is being processed through the processing part 2120, the operation of the processing part 2120 may be affected by the rotation of the rotating ball 2130.


Accordingly, the control part 2150 may control the moving part 2112 such that the rotating ball 2130 is lowered when the processing part 2120 is operated, and control the moving part 2112 such that the rotating ball 2130 is raised only when the processing part 2120 is not operated.


The control part 2150 may detect whether the mattress 10 is placed on the upper portion of the frame 2110 using the sensor part 2160, and may detect whether the mattress 10 is rotated using the sensor part 2160.


Referring to FIG. 18, the sensor part 2160 may be provided on the upper portion of the frame 2110, and whether the mattress 10 is placed or not and rotated or not may be detected by the sensor part 2160. Various sensors may be used for the sensor part 2160 as long as they can detect whether the mattress 10 is placed or not and rotated or not.


The control part 2150 may detect whether the mattress 10 is rotated using the sensor part 2160, and may also automatically raise the rotating ball 2130 only when the mattress 10 is rotated as the operation of the processing part 2120 is stopped.


Here, the control part 2150 is connected to the processing part 2120, and the control part 2150 may recognize whether the processing part 2120 operates. In addition, the control part 2150 may be disposed at various points as long as the operation of the moving part 2112 can be controlled while receiving signals of the sensor part 2160.


In the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an alignment bar 2170 protruding above the frame 2110 and being in contact with one side of the mattress 10 may be provided in the frame 2110.


Referring to FIG. 19, the alignment bar 2170 is disposed on a line extending from the processing part 2120, protrudes above the frame 2110, and is capable of supporting the mattress 10 while being in contact with one side of the mattress 10.


The alignment bar 2170 may align one side of the mattress 10 so that the mattress 10 may pass in a straight line without shaking when passing through the processing part 2120, and due to the alignment bar 2170, a target edge point of the mattress 10 may pass through the processing part 2120 without shaking.


The alignment bar 2170 is described as being disposed on the line extending from the processing part 2120, but is not limited thereto, and may be disposed at various points as long as it can align the mattress 10 while being in contact with one side of the mattress 10.


The alignment bar 2170 may also be installed to be raisable and lowerable in the frame 2110. As described above, the mattress 10 should rotate after one side edge thereof is processed.


However, when the alignment bar 2170 protrudes above the frame 2110, the rotation of the sheet may be hindered by the alignment bar 2170. Thus, when the mattress 10 rotates, it is preferable that the alignment bar 2170 does not protrude above the frame 2110.


To this end, referring to FIGS. 20A and 20B, the alignment bar 2170 is raisable or lowerable in an inner direction of the frame 2110, so that the alignment bar 2170 protrudes above the frame 2110 or does not protrude above the frame 2110.


Here, the operation of the alignment bar 2170 may be controlled through the control part 2150. The control part 2150 controls the alignment bar 2170 to be lowered in the inner direction of the frame 2110 when the rotating ball 2130 is raised by the moving part 2112.


Since the phrase “the rotating ball 2130 is raised” indicates that the mattress 10 rotates, when the rotating ball 2130 is raised, the control part 2150 controls the alignment bar 2170 to be lowered in the inner direction of the frame 2110.


Thereafter, when the rotating ball 2130 is lowered, the control part 2150 may align the mattress 10 while raising the alignment bar 2170 so as to protrude above the frame 2110.


The sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure has the following effects.


In the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the rotating ball 2130 is provided in the frame 2110 of the processing device configured to process an edge of the mattress 10, so that the edge of the mattress 10 can be processed while easily rotating and moving the mattress 10.


In particular, in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the raising or lowering of the rotating ball 2130 is controlled through the control part 2150, so that the rotating ball 2130 can be controlled to be raised only when the mattress 10 is rotated.


In addition, in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using a rotating ball according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an edge point of the mattress 10 to be processed can accurately pass through the processing part 2120 by the alignment bar 2170, and the alignment bar 2170 is controlled through the control part 2150, so that the mattress 10 can rotate without being hindered by the alignment bar 2170 during rotation.


Hereinafter, a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.


The present disclosure relates to a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor, and relates to a sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor, capable of processing an edge of a sheet by easily rotating the sheet by providing an air compressor in a frame of a processing device configured to process an edge of a sheet.


A sheet processed by the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a sheet placed on the mattress, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the sheet may be a mattress.


In addition, a processing operation performed in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be a sewing operation through a sewing apparatus such as a sewing machine, but is not limited thereto, and may include various operations as long as they are operations that process an edge of a sheet or a mattress.


Referring to FIG. 21, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a frame 3110, a processing part 3120, and an air compressor 3130.


The frame 3110 is a work bench on which a mattress 10 is placed, and may be formed of a frame in which a plate is installed in an upper portion thereof so that an edge of the mattress 10 may be processed thereon. The frame 3110 may be formed in various shapes as long as the mattress 10 is placed and processed thereon.


The processing part 3120 may be disposed on one side of the frame 3110, and may process an edge of the mattress 10. The processing part 3120 is a device capable of sewing an edge of the mattress 10, and may be a device such as a sewing machine.


However, the processing part 3120 is not limited to the sewing machine, and may include various devices as long as they are devices capable of processing an edge of the mattress 10. For example, the processing part 3120 may be a device configured to seal and sew an edge of the mattress 10.


An edge of the mattress 10 may be processed while passing through the processing part 3120. The mattress 10 is formed in a rectangular shape, and after one edge of the mattress 10 passes through the processing part 3120, the mattress 10 is rotated so that another edge of the mattress 10 is processed.


A configuration capable of rotating a sheet is not provided in a conventional sheet processing device. Since the sheet has a large volume and a significant weight, through the conventional sheet processing apparatus, it is difficult to process the sheet while rotating the sheet.


In order to solve the above problem, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may use the air compressor 3130.


The air compressor 3130 is provided below the frame 3110 and is capable of spraying air into the frame 3110. The air compressor 3130 may include various devices as long as they are devices capable of spraying air into the frame 3110,


Referring to FIG. 22, the frame 3110 may include a plurality of air spraying holes 3111 through which air sprayed from the air compressor 3130 may be discharged to the outside. The plurality of air spraying holes 3111 are provided to be spaced apart from each other, and air is sprayed from each of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111.


The mattress 10 may be placed on an upper portion of the air spraying hole 3111, and may receive pressure of the air sprayed from the air spraying hole 3111. The mattress 10 may be raised upwards by the pressure of the air sprayed from the air spraying hole 3111.


The mattress 10 is difficult to rotate due to a frictional force generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 3110. However, when the mattress 10 is raised by the air sprayed from the air compressor 3130, the frictional force generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 3110 is reduced, so that the mattress 10 may be easily rotated.


Here, the mattress 10 is slightly raised by the air sprayed from the air compressor 3130, and the mattress 10 may be raised only to the extent that the mattress 10 and the frame 3110 are not in contact with each other.


Referring to FIG. 22, the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 provided in the frame 3110 may be spaced apart from each other at an interval of 40 cm to 50 cm. When the interval of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 is to large (greater than 50 cm), sufficient force may not be supplied to the mattress 10.


In addition, when the interval between the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 is too large (greater than 50 cm), a separation distance between points at which the mattress 10 receives force by air pressure increases, and thus the balance of the mattress 10 may be destroyed. Accordingly, the separation distance between the air spraying holes 3111 may less than 50 cm.


On the contrary, when the interval between the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 is too small (less than 40 cm), excessive force may be applied to the mattress 10. When the mattress 10 is raised only to the extent that the frictional force is not generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 3110, the mattress 10 is easily rotated.


Accordingly, it is not necessary to apply excessive force to the mattress 10, and air may be sprayed so that the mattress 10 is raised only to the extent that the frictional force is not generated between the mattress 10 and the frame 3110. Thus, the interval between the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 may be greater than 40 cm.


The sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a switch 3140 capable of controlling the operation of the air compressor 3130. The switch 3140 is a device capable of turning the air compressor 3130 on/off, and the user may operate the air compressor 3130 only when the mattress 10 is rotated.


Referring to FIGS. 23 and 24, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a control part 3150 configured to control air spraying from the air compressor 3130, and a sensor part 3160 capable of detecting whether the mattress 10 is placed on the frame 3110.


Referring to FIG. 23, the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may be operated through the switch 3140, and may also be operated through the control part 3150 and the sensor part 3160.


The control part 3150 may control the air spraying from the air compressor 3130, and the control part 3150 may control the air compressor 3130 to spray air into the frame 3110 when the operation of the processing part 3120 is stopped and the mattress 10 is rotated.


When an edge of the mattress 10 is processed by operating the processing part 3120, the operation of the air compressor 3130 may be stopped. When air is sprayed from the air compressor 3130 when the edge of the mattress 10 is processed through the processing part 3120, this may affect the operation of the processing part 3120.


Accordingly, the control part 3150 may control the air compressor 3130 so that air is not sprayed from the air compressor 3130 when the processing part 3120 is operated, and air is sprayed from the air compressor 3130 only when the processing part 3120 is not operated.


The control part 3150 may detect that the mattress 10 is placed on the upper portion of the frame 3110 using the sensor part 3160. Various sensors may be used for the sensor part 3160 as long as they can detect whether the mattress 10 is placed on the frame 3110.


The control part 3150 may control air to be sprayed from the air compressor 3130 only when the sensor part 3160 detects that the mattress 10 is placed on the frame 3110.


The sensor part 3160 may also detect whether the mattress 10 rotates. Referring to FIG. 24, the sensor part 3160 may be provided on the upper portion of the frame 3110, and whether the mattress 10 is rotated or not may be detected by the sensor part 3160. Various sensors may be used for the sensor part 3160 as long as they can detect whether the mattress 10 is rotated or not.


The control part 3150 may detect whether the mattress 10 is rotated using the sensor part 3160, and may also control the air compressor 3130 to automatically spray air when the mattress 10 is rotated as the operation of the processing part 3120 is stopped.


Here, the control part 3150 is connected to the processing part 3120, and the control part 3150 may recognize whether the processing part 3120 operates. In addition, the control part 3150 may be disposed at various points as long as the operation of the air compressor 3130 can be controlled while receiving signals of the sensor part 3160.


The control part 3150 may also control the air compressor 3130 such that the pressure of the air sprayed from each of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 is different from each other. As described above, the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 are provided in the frame 3110, and since the pressure of the air sprayed from each of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 is different from each other, the mattress 10 may be easily rotated.


According to an embodiment, the control part 3150 controls such that the pressure of the air sprayed from the air spraying hole disposed in a center portion of the mattress 10 is formed to be greater than the pressure of the air sprayed from the air spraying hole disposed in a periphery of the mattress 10.


When the pressure of the air sprayed from the air spraying hole disposed in the center portion of the mattress 10 is formed to be great, a large force may be applied to a center of the mattress 10 to form a central axis around which the mattress 10 rotates. Accordingly, the mattress 10 may be easily rotated.


The control part 3150 may detect the center portion of the mattress 10 using the sensor part 3160. The sensor part 3160 may detect a shape of the mattress 10, and as the sensor part 3160 detects the shape of the mattress 10, the control part 3150 may recognize a center point of the mattress 10.


Here, the center portion of the mattress 10 may be an inside of a circle having a diameter of 50 cm to 200 cm with respect to the center point of the mattress 10, and the periphery of the mattress 10 may be a portion other than the center portion of the mattress 10.


The control part 3150 may also control the air compressor 3130 such that air is sprayed only from some of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111. The control part 3150 may control such that air is sprayed only from some of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 according to a direction in which the mattress 10 rotates, and thus, the mattress 10 may be easily rotated.


In the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an alignment bar 3170 protruding above the frame 3110 and being in contact with one side of the mattress 10 may be provided in the frame 3110.


Referring to FIG. 25, the alignment bar 3170 is disposed on a line extending from the processing part 3120, protrudes above the frame 3110, and is capable of supporting the mattress 10 while being in contact with one side of the mattress 10. The alignment bar 3170 may align one side of the mattress 10 so that the mattress 10 may pass in a straight line without shaking when passing through the processing part 3120, and due to the alignment bar 3170, a target edge point of the mattress 10 may pass through the processing part 3120 without shaking.


The alignment bar 3170 is described as being disposed on the line extending from the processing part 3120, but is not limited thereto, and may be disposed at various points as long as it can align the mattress 10 while being in contact with one side of the mattress 10.


The alignment bar 3170 may be installed to be raisable and lowerable in the frame 3110. As described above, the mattress 10 should rotate after one side edge thereof is processed.


However, when the alignment bar 3170 protrudes above the frame 3110, the rotation of the sheet may be hindered by the alignment bar 3170. Thus, when the mattress 10 rotates, it is preferable that the alignment bar 3170 does not protrude above the frame 3110.


To this end, referring to FIGS. 26A and 26B, the alignment bar 3170 is raisable or lowerable in an inner direction of the frame 3110, so that the alignment bar 3170 protrudes above the frame 3110 or does not protrude above the frame 3110.


Here, the operation of the alignment bar 3170 may be controlled through the control part 3150. When air is sprayed into the frame 3110 from the air compressor 3130, the control part 3150 controls the alignment bar 3170 to be lowered in the inner direction of the frame 3110.


Since the phrase “air is sprayed from the air compressor 3130” indicates that the mattress 10 rotates, when air is sprayed into the frame 3110 from the air compressor 3130, the control part 3150 control the alignment bar 3170 to be lowered in the inner direction of the frame 3110.


Thereafter, when air is not sprayed from the air compressor 3130, the control part 3150 controls the alignment bar 3170 to be raised so that the alignment bar 3170 protrudes above the frame 3110, thereby aligning the mattress 10.


The sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure has the following effects.


The sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes the air compressor 3130 configured to spray air into the frame 3110 of the processing device that processes an edge of the mattress 10, so that the edge of the mattress 10 can be processed while easily rotating and moving the mattress 10.


In particular, in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the air compressor 3130 can be controlled by the control part 3150, and an spraying pressure or spraying point of each of the plurality of air spraying holes 3111 can be controlled, so that the mattress 10 can easily be rotated.


In addition, in the sewing apparatus having a sheet support using an air compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, an edge point of the mattress 10 to be processed may accurately pass through the processing part 3120 by the alignment bar 3170, and the alignment bar 3170 is controlled through the control part 3150, so that the mattress 10 can rotate without being hindered by the alignment bar 3170 during rotation.


As set forth above, exemplary embodiments have been disclosed in the accompanying drawings and the specification. Herein, specific terms have been used, but are just used for the purpose of describing the present disclosure and are not used for qualifying the meaning or limiting the scope of the present disclosure, which is disclosed in the appended claims. Therefore, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various modifications and equivalent exemplary embodiments are possible from the present disclosure.
