DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a glove having a non-slip design formed on the palm side of a knitted glove, a method of manufacturing the glove, and a manufacturing apparatus.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A description will be given with reference to FIGS. Conventionally, as a method for manufacturing non-slip gloves, a sheet layer (rubber sheet or synthetic resin film) 12 is placed on the palm side surface of a knitted glove 11 and the sheet layer 12 is placed on a hot plate press 20.
Means to apply heat to the knitted glove 11 and apply a non-slip design 13 to the surface.

In this conventional method, a hot platen press 20 is used.
Is formed on the pressing surface of the sheet layer 1 and the sheet layer 1 is formed.
2 is heat-softened and fused to the fibers on the palm side of the knitted glove 11 to form a non-slip design 13 at the same time. After removing the glove 11 from the hot platen press 20, the vulcanizing step is performed by placing the glove 11 in a heating furnace. I'm going to do it.

[0004]

In this conventional technique, the process for forming the non-slip design 13 is completed at one time, but there are the following problems in terms of the performance of the non-slip glove.

One of them is the degree of fusion of the sheet layer 12 to the fibers of the knitted gloves 11 when the sheet layer 12 is pressed by the inverted convex prototype 31a of the pressing surface 22 of the hot platen press 20 on which the anti-slip design 13 is formed. Is the strength of That is, in a non-slip design having an uneven shape, the fusion force is strong at the T portion where the sheet thickness is large, and the fusion force is weak at the S portion where the sheet thickness is small, and the portion where the fusion force is weak is easily peeled off. As a result, the product life of the non-slip glove is shortened.

[0006] Second, the shape of the anti-slip design to be formed is limited. In the case of applying a non-slip design having a complicated and fine pattern with a large unevenness to the thickness of the sheet layer 12, the inverted concave and convex prototype 31 a formed on the pressing surface of the hot platen press 20 is deep and complicated in the sheet layer 12. You will be absorbed in it. In this case, since the sheet layer 12 is heat-softened and pressed by the hot platen press 20 to form non-slip irregularities on the surface thereof, the sheet layer 12 is separated from the hot platen press 20 and moved to the vulcanization step. When the sheet layer 12 is released from the hot platen press 20, the sheet layer 12 in the heat-softened state is formed between the portion fused to the fibers of the knitted glove 11 and the surrounding portion that is not so, because the penetration into the sheet layer 12 is deep and complicated. A breakage or peeling phenomenon occurs in between.

Therefore, the fineness and unevenness of the anti-slip design formed on the pressing surface 22 of the hot platen press 20 are such that the sheet layer 12 can be detached from the pressing surface of the hot platen press 20 while the sheet layer 12 is in a thermally softened state. Is required. In other words, the anti-slip design is limited to a simple pattern having an uneven shape, a semi-circular uneven shape, or a long and shallow uneven pattern. A non-slip design under such restrictions naturally has a poor anti-slip effect, and a non-slip design with such a non-slip design has a low product value.

In order to prevent the sheet layer from being broken, a method of vulcanizing while the pressing surface of the hot platen press 20 is pressed against the sheet layer 12 may be considered. However, in this method, it takes a long time of 5 to 6 minutes to complete the vulcanization, and during that time, it is necessary to continue to operate the pressing device of the hot platen press 20, which leads to a significant increase in cost and productivity. Will drop. In order to shorten the operation time of the pressing device, it is conceivable to shorten the vulcanization time. However, it is necessary to raise the temperature of the heating furnace, which is not preferable because there is a great risk of causing deterioration of the sheet layer.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and has a non-slip glove obtained by fusing a sheet layer having a complicated, fine, and uneven uneven anti-slip design to the palm side of a knitted glove. And a method and apparatus for manufacturing the same.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Non-slip gloves 10 according to the present invention
An embodiment will be described. This non-slip glove 10
Is a non-slip glove in which the pattern is fine and the anti-slip design 13 having a large unevenness is formed on the sheet layer 12 which is fused to the palm side of the knitted glove 11. In this glove, the sheet layer 12 is placed on the palm side of the knitted glove 11 fitted in the flat plate mold 40, and the hot platen press 2 is used.
0 is pressed by the flat pressing surface 22 and is entirely and firmly fused to the knitted glove 11. In addition, the anti-slip design 13 of the sheet layer 12 is placed on the sheet layer 12 with the mold sheet 30 in which the inverted convex prototype 31 of the anti-slip design 13 is formed on the lower surface, and the hot platen press 2
The mold is formed by pressing the mold at 0 and removing the mold sheet 30 after vulcanizing the sheet layer 12. Usually, the anti-slip design 13 is formed over the entire surface of the sheet layer 12.

The non-slip glove 10 is manufactured by the following method. First, the knitted gloves 11 are put on a flat hand mold 4.
0, and the sheet layer 12 is placed on its palm side. next,
The sheet layer 12 is pressed by a hot platen press 20 having a flat lower surface and fused to the knitted gloves 11. Subsequently, the mold sheet 30 on which the inverted convex / concave prototype 31 of the anti-slip design 13 is formed on the lower surface is placed on the sheet layer 12, and then the hot plate press 20
To form a non-slip design 13 on the upper surface of the sheet layer 12. Further, after the hot platen press 20 is detached, while the mold sheet 30 is left on the upper surface of the sheet layer 12,
The sheet layer 12 is vulcanized in a heating furnace (not shown). Finally, the mold sheet 30 is removed from the sheet layer 12.

The above manufacturing method is achieved by a manufacturing apparatus including a flat plate mold 40, a hot platen press 20, a mold sheet 30, and a heating furnace. In this manufacturing apparatus, the flat hand mold 40 is made of a thin sheet of aluminum and has a knitted glove 11.
It has a five-finger part so that it can be fitted. The hot platen press 20 has a built-in heater 24 that can freely move up and down, and an elevating table having a flat pressing surface 22 (lower surface) for uniformly pressing and fusing the sheet layer 12 to the palm side of the knitted gloves 11. 2
1 and a lower table 23 fixed below the lift table 21 and having a built-in heater 25.

The mold sheet 30 is made of nylon, polyester, or the like, and has an inverted convex / concave prototype 31 of the anti-slip design 13 having a fine pattern and a large unevenness on its lower surface. The mold sheet 30 is placed on the sheet layer 12 and then pressed by the hot platen press 20 to form the non-slip design 13 on the upper surface of the sheet layer 12 and removed after vulcanization. And the heating furnace is the sheet layer 1
2 is heated at a predetermined temperature for a predetermined time to vulcanize the sheet layer 12.

In the non-slip glove 10 according to this embodiment, the sheet layer 12 can be formed of a rubber sheet having a thickness of about 0.5 mm. In this case, it may be adhered to the knitted glove 11 via an adhesive. In addition, instead of the rubber sheet, a liquid synthetic substance such as rubber latex or PVC is screen-printed or the like (a small mesh sheet is applied to gloves,
It can also be constituted by an unvulcanized film which is applied on the knitted glove 11 and semi-dried at a low temperature.

In the step of fusing the sheet layer 12 to the knitted glove 11 in the manufacture of the anti-slip glove 10, the sheet layer 12 is heated and pressed by the hot platen press 20, so that the sheet layer 12 The lower part is knitted gloves 11
Press between the fibers. At this time, since the pressing surface 22 of the hot platen press 20 is flat, the sheet layer 12 is
1 will be pressed into the whole with a uniform pressing force,
Therefore, the fusion force to the knitted glove 11 is also uniform as a whole. Further, the upper surface of the sheet layer 12 is softened and becomes flat.

Further, in the step of forming the anti-slip design 13 on the upper surface of the sheet layer 12, the inverted uneven prototype of the anti-slip design 13 having a fine and large unevenness is formed on the flat and softened sheet layer 12. When the mold sheet 30 on which the 31 has been formed is placed and pressed by the hot platen press 20, the reverse irregularity prototype 31 of the mold sheet 30 bites into the sheet layer 12 to form the non-slip design 13. At this time, by further heating the pressing surface 22 of the hot platen press 20, the pressing time can be reduced and the pressing force can be minimized, which is economical.

In the subsequent vulcanizing step of the sheet layer 12,
After the inverted uneven prototype 31 of the mold sheet 30 has been bitten into the sheet layer 12 and is continuously put into a heating furnace in a state of being entangled to complete vulcanization sequentially, the mold sheet 30 is peeled off from the sheet layer 12. At this time, since the vulcanization of the sheet layer 12 is completed and the sheet layer 12 becomes an elastic body, the mold sheet 30 is easily removed from the anti-slip design 13 of the sheet layer 12 having a fine and large unevenness.

That is, in this step, the mold sheet 30 having the inverted convex / concave prototype 31 of the anti-slip design 13 is provided.
After vulcanizing the sheet layer 12, the sheet layer 12
Is peeled off when it becomes elastic, so that unlike the case where the sheet layer 12 is peeled off in a softened state, the anti-slip design 13 is not cut or peeled off. Therefore, such a pattern is fine, the unevenness is large, and the anti-slip design 13 having a high anti-slip effect is applied to the sheet layer 1.
2 can be freely formed.

Since the mold sheet 30 can be used repeatedly, it is economical and excellent in productivity.

When the mold sheet 30 is pressed onto the upper surface of the sheet layer 12, an additional sheet 14 having the same shape as the whole or a part of the sheet layer 12 as shown in FIG. By mounting, the sheet layer 12
Can have a two-layer structure. Thereby, the durability of the non-slip glove 10 of the present invention is further improved.

The knitted glove 11 used in the present invention
Is knitted using an elastic knitting yarn in which short fibers or long fibers are entangled, it is possible to provide an anti-slip glove 10 having high anti-slip effect, excellent durability, and high elasticity.

[0025]

According to the present invention, the sheet layer 12 is
The knitted gloves 11 are formed by a hot platen press 20 having a flat pressing surface 22.
, The entire sheet layer 12 receives the pressing force uniformly, and thus the entire sheet layer 12 is uniformly fused to the knitted gloves 11. Thereby, the sheet layer 12 is not peeled off from the knitted glove 11, and the durability of the non-slip glove 10 is improved.

Further, since the formation of the anti-slip design 13 is performed using the mold sheet 30 and the mold sheet 30 is peeled off from the sheet layer 12 after vulcanization is completed,
The anti-slip design 13 does not break or peel off. Therefore, it is possible to freely form the anti-slip design 13 having a fine and complicated pattern and a large uneven step, and to provide the anti-slip glove 10 having a high anti-slip effect.
