These inscapes of fold mechanism 450 such as following illustrated can be kept out of the way near clothing 10 or from clothing 10 with suitable timing under the control of control part 471.Be used to make inscape to clothing 10 near or can realize by making up known mechanical mechanism and element from the driving mechanism that clothing 10 is kept out of the way.
Below, with reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 5~Figure 17 the action of clothes-folding machine is described.
At first, the clothing 10 that the operator will finish washing is suspended on the clothes hanger 200 of arm 202,203 open modes shown in Figure 1, and clothes hanger 200 is suspended on the clothes hanger carrier 12 1 that is provided with on the clothes-horse 110.At this moment, owing to clothes hanger carrier 12 1 is arranged to and can be slided freely on clothes-horse 110, so the operator can be provided with the interval of a plurality of clothings 10 arbitrarily.Even in the drying of clothing 10 because of wind etc. causes under the situation that clothes hanger carrier 12 1 moves because clothing 10 can be near to clothes hanger carrier 12 1 self below the length, the misgivings that cause slow-drying so do not have that clothing 10 is close to each other.
So, after the operator has hung the clothing 10 of arbitrary number, as the common washings of drying, make clothing 10 dry along with the process of time under the heat of sunshine.The operator utilizes not shown switch etc., to control part 472 input instructions, or during the aridity more than aridity sensor (not shown) detects clothing 10 certain, the clothes hanger carrier 12 1 of the most close fold mechanism 450 is moved to arrow 120A direction, enter into housing 490 and stop then.Thus, the jackknife action of clothes hanger 200 and fold mechanism 450 beginning clothings 10.Below, with reference to Fig. 5~Figure 17, utilize the action of clothes hanger 200 and fold mechanism 450 to describe.The action of clothes hanger 200 and fold mechanism 450 is carried out with predetermined timing according to the instruction of control part 472.
At first, as shown in Figure 5, folding width determination portion 420 moves towards clothing 10 shown in arrow 420A, clings to the dorsal part of clothing 10.Then, the arm leading section 222,232 of clothes hanger 200 is at the linking portion that links with arm base portion 221,231, shown in arrow 222A and 232A, to the direction that intersects with vertical direction, the direction bending of preferred approximate vertical.Thus, by arm with the linking portion bending of the clothing 10 of deployed condition supporting at arm base portion 221,231 and arm leading section 222,232.
Be specially more,, make that arm leading section 222,232 is that middle mind-set arrow 222A, 232A direction are revolved and turn 90 degrees with axle 223a, 233a, becomes state shown in Figure 6 by making first linking part 223,233 with respect to 221,231 rotations of arm base portion.Then, arm leading section 222,232 is that middle mind-set arrow 222A, 232A direction are revolved and turn 90 degrees with respect to second linking part 224,234 with axle 222a, 232a.Thus, as shown in Figure 7, arm 220,230 is to pull the mode bending into folding width determination portion 420, end 420e1,420e2 about folding width determination portion 420, form the folding line portion of vertical direction on clothing 10, clothing 10 is folded in width (shoulder breadth) direction.This is called first distortion.
Because arm 220 and arm 230 are preferably formed and are the obtuse angle, so, make that the front end of arm leading section 222,232 is compared first linking part 223, second linking part 224, reach (about for example about 5cm) rising a little of first linking part 233, second linking part, 234 residing planes by making arm leading section 222,232 to arrow 222A, the rotation of 232A direction.Thus, clothing 10 can not be folded on width from 222,232 landings of arm leading section on the shoulders.
Fig. 8 be expression will by first clothing that fold of distortion the arm 220,230 of clothes hanger 200 tightly above horizontal plane on the cutaway view that cuts off.The result of first distortion is, clothing 10 be divided into the 10f1 of folding line portion, 10f2 be the boundary clothing central portion 10c and with folding overlappingly 180 degree of this clothing central portion 10c about separately clothing sidepiece 10s1,10s2.Built-in hanger body 210 and arm base portion 221,231 among the clothing central portion 10c, built-in arm leading section 222,232 among clothing sidepiece 10s1, the 10s2.
Clothing sidepiece maintaining part 411,412 is advanced to arrow 411A, 412A direction to arrow 411R, the rotation of 412R direction and while from this state, as shown in Figure 9, the front end of clothing sidepiece 10s1,10s2 is scratched and be pressed on the folding width determination portion 420 from the front end of arm leading section 222,232.At this moment, in the pressing force of folding width determination portion 420, control action, the arm leading section 222,232 that is built in the clothes hanger 200 of clothing sidepiece 10s1,10s2 is controlled together avoiding in increase and decrease.After, for the ease of understanding the action of clothes hanger 200, omit the folding width determination portion 420 of controlling of clothing 10 folding on the width and the diagram of clothing sidepiece maintaining part 411,412 on the shoulders.
By finishing first distortion, make the arm 220,230 of clothes hanger 200 finish the action that clothing 10 is folding in the horizontal direction.Clothing 10 is folding in vertical direction by folded lengthwise portion 451.Arm 220,230 is being out of shape from the mode that clothing 10 is extracted clothes hanger 200 out.The mode that this situation converges on by the view field with the horizontal plane of arm 220,230 in the view field of peristome of clothing realizes arm 220,230 distortion.Below, distortion folding in the horizontal direction and arm 220,230 describes to clothing 10.
411,412 pairs of clothings 10 of clothing sidepiece maintaining part control action after, as shown in figure 10, arm leading section 222,232 is that the center is shown in arrow 224A, 234A, along the rotation of the plane (parallel with the length direction of clothing 10) of clothing 10 with axle 224a, 234a.Thus, arm leading section 222,232 becomes the state that extends in vertical direction.This is called second distortion.
Then, as shown in figure 11, arm leading section 222,232 is that the center rotates shown in arrow 223A, 233A with axle 223a, 233a.Thus, arm leading section 222,232 by the clothing folding line 10f1 of portion, 10f2, is invaded clothing central portion 10c from clothing sidepiece 10s1,10s2.This is called the 3rd distortion.In order to realize the 3rd distortion, the length of arm leading section 222,232 preferably is shorter than the upper end of folding line portion of the clothing 10 after first distortion to the distance of the lower end of the root of sleeve.
Then, as shown in figure 12, arm leading section 222,232 is that the center is shown in arrow 224A, 234A, along the plane rotation of clothing 10 with axle 224a, 234a.Thus, arm leading section 222,232 is positioned at the position with arm base portion 221,231 almost parallels.This is called the first half of the 4th distortion.
So, arm 220,230 is through with extracting the preparation that the mode of clothes hangers 200 is out of shape out from clothing 10.
