BASTIDOR DE PRESIÓN PARA BORDAR TELAS PRESSURE FRAME TO EMBROIDER FABRICS

CAMPO TÉCNICO DE LA INVENCIÓNTECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La presente invención se relaciona con Ia industria del bordado, ya que proporciona un bastidor de presión para bordar telas que sujeta fuertemente Ia tela y almacena o guarda agujas. Dicho bastidor está constituido por Ia combinación de un aro con cavidad interna y un semi-aro sólido flexible con agarraderas.The present invention relates to the embroidery industry, since it provides a pressure frame for embroidering fabrics that strongly holds the fabric and stores or stores needles. Said frame is constituted by the combination of a ring with internal cavity and a flexible solid semi-ring with handles.

OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

El objeto de Ia presente invención es proporcionar un bastidor de presión para bordar telas, que sujeta fuertemente Ia tela y almacena o guarda agujas.The object of the present invention is to provide a pressure frame for embroidering fabrics, which strongly holds the fabric and stores or stores needles.

ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

En Ia actualidad, los bastidores que sujetan fuertemente telas para bordar son laboriosos de armar y desarmar, tal es el caso de los que utilizan tornillos, donde incluso se puede llegar a romper Ia tela, cuando se aprieta demasiado.At present, the frames that strongly hold fabrics for embroidery are laborious to assemble and disassemble, such is the case of those who use screws, where you can even break the fabric, when it is tightened too much.

Con el fin de subsanar el inconveniente antes mencionado, el documento ES 192604 U describe un aro de material moldeado, con un canal continuo en su borde interior, que dispuestamente recibe a un aro metálico abierto que se expande y que actúa a manera de pinza, introduciéndose dentro del referido canal continuo, el citado aro metálico, presenta en sus extremos unas patillas que facilitan su colocación o extracción del canal del aro moldeado circundante, esto con el fin de que al introducir Ia tela a bordar en los dos aros esta quede tensa y lista para el bordado. Sin embargo, dicho bastidor no sujeta fuertemente Ia tela, debido a que el canal interno es liso al igual que el aro externo. Además, las agarraderas son lisas y son resbalosas, por Io que se corre el riesgo de que éstas salgan disparadas y golpeen al usuario. Por su parte la patente US 4422250, describe un aro para bordar tipo resorte, el cual comprende un aro continuo externo, y tiene una cavidad perimetral interna; un aro circular interno discontinuo, y esta compuesto de un material elástico, para ser resistente a Ia deformación cuando se le hace una figura circular mas pequeña que Ia del aro externo, dicho aro interno esta compuesto concéntricamente dispuesto dentro del aro externo; dos agarraderas separadas, cada una generalmente extendida radialmente hacia fuera, a partir del anillo interno, en cada uno de los extremos de dicha espacio discontinuo; y mecanismos de frenado, comprendiendo un clip, ambos mecanismos se extienden entre las agarraderas para entre cortar y prevenir un excesivo desplazamiento lateral entre las agarraderas y mayor que una distancia fija para remover el aro externo del aro interno, mientras permita un movimiento lateral y desplazamiento de ambas agarraderas. Este bastidor tiene el problema de no fija fuertemente Ia tela a bordar.In order to remedy the aforementioned drawback, document ES 192604 U describes a ring of molded material, with a continuous channel in its inner edge, which willingly receives an open metal ring that expands and acts as a clamp, being introduced into the said continuous channel, the aforementioned metal ring, has at its ends some pins that facilitate its placement or removal of the channel of the surrounding molded ring, this in order that when introducing the fabric to be embroidered in the two rings this is tense and ready for embroidery. However, said frame does not hold the fabric tightly, because the internal channel is smooth as well as the outer ring. In addition, the handles are smooth and slippery, so there is a risk that they will be fired and hit the user. For its part, US patent 4422250 describes a spring-type embroidery ring, which comprises an external continuous ring, and has an internal perimeter cavity; a discontinuous internal circular ring, and is composed of an elastic material, to be resistant to deformation when a circular figure is made smaller than that of the outer ring, said inner ring is concentrically arranged within the outer ring; two separate handles, each generally radially extended outwardly, from the inner ring, at each end of said discontinuous space; and braking mechanisms, comprising a clip, both mechanisms extend between the handles to cut and prevent excessive lateral displacement between the handles and greater than a fixed distance to remove the outer ring from the inner ring, while allowing lateral movement and displacement. of both handles. This frame has the problem of not firmly fixing the fabric to be embroidered.

Por otra parte, Ia patente US 5555653, describe un bastidor de presión para bordar, conformado básicamente por un aro externo que tiene en su perímetro interno un canal continuo con salientes escalonadas; dentro de dicho canal continuo se aloja un aro interno para dar más agarre a Ia tela que se encuentra sujeta entre dichos aros. Por lo qué, el inconveniente que presenta dicho bastidor es que es difícil el ensamble de los aros debido a que se utiliza el mecanismo de una abrazadera para ajustar Ia tensión de Ia tela, además de que Ia tela se daña o marca, debido a las salientes escalonadas de los aros.On the other hand, US Patent 5555653 describes a pressure frame for embroidery, basically consisting of an outer ring that has a continuous channel with stepped projections on its inner perimeter; within said continuous channel an inner ring is housed to give more grip to the fabric that is held between said rings. Therefore, the drawback of said frame is that it is difficult to assemble the rings because the mechanism of a clamp is used to adjust the tension of the fabric, in addition to the fact that the fabric is damaged or marked, due to the stepped projections of the rings.

Por Io tanto, con Ia finalidad de suprimir los inconvenientes antes mencionados, se desarrolló un bastidor de presión para bordar perfeccionado, el cual se pretende proteger en Ia presente solicitud, pues con este bastidor se facilita Ia tensión de la tela a bordar, además de que se pueden guardar las agujas. DESCRIPC1ON DETALLADA DE LA INVENCIÓNTherefore, in order to eliminate the aforementioned drawbacks, an improved embroidery pressure frame was developed, which is intended to be protected in the present application, since with this frame the tension of the fabric to be embroidered is facilitated, in addition to that needles can be stored. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Con referencia a dichas figuras, el bastidor de presión para bordar telas, de esta solicitud, tiene Ia bondad de que sujeta fuertemente Ia tela y almacena o guarda agujas; dicho bastidor se constituye de: un aro externo 1 acanalado internamente 2, donde dicho canal tiene en sus paredes internas, al menos, dos salientes escalonadas 4 que recorren a todo dicho canal 2; un semi-aro sólido 3 se aloja, a presión, dentro del canal 2 del aro externo 1 , haciendo contacto con las salientes escalonadas 4, dicho semi-aro 3 tiene una separación 8 debido a que sus extremos nunca se unen entre sí, sino que se proyectan en agarraderas 6; donde dichas agarraderas se levantan ligeramente hacia el centro del semi-aro 3 y se proyectan hacia fuera de dicho semi-aro 3; un contenedor de agujas 5 es colocado en las agarraderas 6; una cavidad longitudinal externa 7 se provee en Ia parte superior del aro externo 1 , donde dicha cavidad 7 tiene internamente un saliente 9 que sujeta a Ia aguja; y T/MX2008/000132With reference to said figures, the pressure frame for embroidering fabrics, of this application, has the goodness that it holds the fabric tightly and stores or stores needles; said frame is constituted of: an external ring 1 internally grooved 2, where said channel has at least two stepped projections 4 in its internal walls that run through all said channel 2; a solid semi-ring 3 is housed, under pressure, within the channel 2 of the outer ring 1, making contact with the stepped projections 4, said semi-ring 3 has a gap 8 because its ends never join together, but which are projected on handles 6; wherein said handles rise slightly towards the center of the half-ring 3 and project outwardly from said half-ring 3; a needle container 5 is placed in the handles 6; an external longitudinal cavity 7 is provided in the upper part of the external ring 1, wherein said cavity 7 internally has a projection 9 that holds the needle; Y T / MX2008 / 000132

.4- una superficie antiderrapante 10 se coloca hacia el lado lateral de las puntas de las agarraderas 6..4- a non-skid surface 10 is placed towards the lateral side of the tips of the handles 6.

Cabe señalar que el semi-aro 3 tiene un diámetro ligeramente mayor al diámetro del aro externo 1 y es de un material flexible resistente a Ia deformación.It should be noted that the semi-ring 3 has a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the outer ring 1 and is of a flexible material resistant to deformation.

Es importante menciona que el contenedor de agujas 5 puede ser un tubo con tapa, para evitar que las agujas se dispersen.It is important to mention that the needle container 5 can be a tube with a lid, to prevent the needles from dispersing.

De esta manera obtenemos un bastidor que tensa, presiona y da mayor agarre de manera sencilla, a Ia tela 11 a bordar, gracias a las salientes escalonadas 4, que se encuentran dentro del canal continuo 2, del aro externo 1, las cuales en conjunto dan más sujeción y presión sobre Ia tela 11, pero sin hacer daño a Ia tela, característica que no poseen el bastidor de Ia patente ES 192604U y Ia patente US 4422250. Otra ventaja que posee el presente bastidor es que se puede colocar cualquier tipo de tela, sin importar el grosor de Ia misma, ya que gracias a Ia separación 8, el semi-aro 3 se hace flexible y reduce su diámetro para dar paso al grosor de Ia tela 11, una vez que ésta es sujetada en el bastidor. In this way we obtain a frame that tenses, presses and gives greater grip in a simple way, to the fabric 11 to be embroidered, thanks to the stepped projections 4, which are inside the continuous channel 2, of the outer ring 1, which together they give more support and pressure on the fabric 11, but without damaging the fabric, characteristic that the frame of the patent ES 192604U and the US patent 4422250 do not have. Another advantage that the present frame possesses is that any type of fabric, regardless of the thickness of the same, because thanks to the separation 8, the semi-ring 3 becomes flexible and reduces its diameter to give way to the thickness of the fabric 11, once it is fastened in the frame.
