The present application claims priority to the Chinese Patent Application No. CN201811139117.2, filed with the Chinese Patent Office on Sep. 28, 2018, and entitled “METHOD FOR SPLITTING COLLAR OR SLEEVE”, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
The present invention relates to the technical field of clothes preparation, and in particular to a method for splitting a collar or a sleeve.
At present, a collar/sleeve of knitwear is made of cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend mostly. In a production process, in order to facilitate continuous production, multiple collars/sleeves are connected via a strong polyester yarn. After the collars/sleeves are knitted, a series of dyeing and clearing-up procedures need to be carried out; and then, an obtained semi-finished product is split. Among them, one procedure is a collar/sleeve splitting procedure. A traditional method is to split the collars/sleeves manually. For example, for collar splitting work, it is a main practice to carry out manual collar pavement (or referred to as scutching) to pave the collars into a stack body having a certain length and a certain number of layers, and then draw a thread manually to remove the strong polyester yarn between the collars. In the thread drawing, a worker needs to move back and forth, and has an arm swung repeatedly and continuously, so that the labor capacity is large, both the time and the labor are consumed, and the collar splitting efficiency is low. A Chinese patent having publication No. CN105380327A discloses an automatic collar splitter to simulate manual thread drawing. Although the labor intensity is reduced, the production efficiency is improved to some extent. Nonetheless, the machine operation is complex and the efficiency still needs to be further improved.
An objective of the present invention is to provide a method for splitting a collar or a sleeve. The method provided by the present invention has simple operation and high splitting efficiency.
In order to achieve the foregoing inventive objective, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
The present invention provides a method for splitting a collar, which includes the following steps:
providing a to-be-split semi-finished product, where the to-be-split semi-finished product includes a to-be-split semi-finished collar or a to-be-split semi-finished sleeve, a connecting thread of the collar in the to-be-split semi-finished collar is made of nylon, a connecting thread of a sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished sleeve is made of the nylon, and materials of the collar and the sleeve independently include cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend;
providing a splitting agent, where the splitting agent includes formic acid and a fog inhibitor; and
contacting the splitting agent with a connecting thread of the to-be-split semi-finished product to split the collar or the sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished product.
Preferably, a mass ratio of the formic acid to the fog inhibitor in the splitting agent is (97-99):(1-3).
Preferably, the fog inhibitor includes fatty alcohol-polyoxyethylene ether, sodium dodecyl sulfate or 1,4-butynediol.
Preferably, the nylon includes nylon 6 or nylon 66.
Preferably, a method for preparing the to-be-split semi-finished product includes the following steps:
using nylon as a connecting thread to produce a collar or a sleeve, and then carrying out dyeing and clearing-up sequentially to obtain the to-be-split semi-finished product.
Preferably, the contacting method includes: spraying the splitting agent onto the connecting thread of the to-be-split semi-finished product, or impregnating the connecting thread of the to-be-split semi-finished product into the splitting agent.
Preferably, the contacting is carried out at a room temperature.
Preferably, after the contacting, the method further includes drying, where the drying temperature is 100-110° C. and the time is 2-4 min.
The present invention provides a method for splitting a collar, which includes the following steps: providing a to-be-split semi-finished product, where the to-be-split semi-finished product includes a to-be-split semi-finished collar or a to-be-split semi-finished sleeve, a connecting thread of the collar in the to-be-split semi-finished collar is made of nylon, a connecting thread of a sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished sleeve is made of the nylon, and materials of the collar and the sleeve independently include cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend; providing a splitting agent, where the splitting agent includes formic acid and a fog inhibitor; and contacting the splitting agent with a connecting thread of the to-be-split semi-finished product to split the collar or the sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished product. By using the nylon as the connecting thread, the present invention not only can guarantee the requirement on the strength of the connecting thread in a production process of the to-be-split semi-finished product, but also can dissolve the nylon via the splitting agent to split the collar or the sleeve. In the splitting agent, as an effective component, the formic acid can dissolve the nylon, and also has no adverse effect to the collar and the sleeve; and the fog inhibitor can inhibit volatilization of the formic acid, so that the formic acid is acted on the nylon more effectively and the utilization rate of the formic acid is improved. The present invention employs the splitting agent to directly act on the connecting thread of the collar or the sleeve, so the operation is convenient; and the connecting thread can be dissolved provided that the splitting agent contacts with the connecting thread for 1-2 s, so the splitting efficiency is high.
The present invention provides a method for splitting a collar, which includes the following steps:
Provide a to-be-split semi-finished product, where the to-be-split semi-finished product includes a to-be-split semi-finished collar or a to-be-split semi-finished sleeve, a connecting thread of the collar in the to-be-split semi-finished collar is made of nylon, a connecting thread of a sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished sleeve is made of the nylon, and materials of the collar and the sleeve independently include cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend.
Provide a splitting agent, where the splitting agent includes formic acid and a fog inhibitor.
Contact the splitting agent with a connecting thread of the to-be-split semi-finished product to split the collar or the sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished product.
According to the present invention, a to-be-split semi-finished product is provided, where the to-be-split semi-finished product includes a to-be-split semi-finished collar or a to-be-split semi-finished sleeve, a connecting thread of the collar in the to-be-split semi-finished collar is made of nylon, a connecting thread of a sleeve in the to-be-split semi-finished sleeve is made of the nylon, and materials of the collar and the sleeve independently include cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend. In the present invention, the nylon includes nylon 6 or nylon 66 preferably. The cotton, the polyester or the polyester-cotton blend are not specially defined by the present invention and may use cotton, polyester or polyester-cotton blend known to a person skilled in the art. In the present invention, the collar or the sleeve is a collar or a sleeve of knitwear preferably.
A method for preparing the to-be-split semi-finished product is not specially defined by the present invention, and the to-be-split semi-finished product may be prepared with a method known to the person skilled in the art. In the present invention, the method for preparing the to-be-split semi-finished product preferably includes the following steps: use nylon as a connecting thread to produce a collar or a sleeve, and then carry out dyeing and clearing-up sequentially to obtain the to-be-split semi-finished product. A specific operation manner for using the nylon as the connecting thread to produce the collar or the sleeve and a specific operation manner for the dyeing and the clearing-up are not specially defined by the present invention, and may use a manner known to the person skilled in the art.
