[0086] (S50) The table felt 2 is stretched, such that the four longitudinal detection lines 3 are respectively coincident with the first edges of the slate 1, and the two transverse detection lines 4 are respectively coincident with second edges of the slate 1. The first CNC glue coating layer 5 is bonded to the second adhesive surface. In the process of stretching the table felt 2, the position of the table felt 2 can be adjusted with reference to the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4, such that the table felt 2 is symmetrically arranged in the transverse and longitudinal directions. The transverse direction of the table felt 2 is an extension direction of the second edge of the slate 1, and the longitudinal direction of the table felt 2 is an extension direction of the first edge of the slate 1. The table felt 2 is bonded to the bottom surface of the slate 1 by means of the first double-sided tape 6 and the first CNC glue coating layer 5, so that the table felt 2 is fixedly mounted to the slate 1.
[0087] (S60) A protective film of the second double-sided tape 6 is teared off, and an adhesive surface of the second double-sided tape 6 is bonded to positions of the second CNC glue coating layer 7 where the side pocket opening and the corner pocket opening are located and the bottom surface of the slate 1, such that the top surface of the table felt 2 is bonded to the bottom surface of the slate 1 at the first arc-shaped notch and the second arc-shaped notch to prevent the table felt 2 from loosening. As shown in
[0088] For the method of the present disclosure, when mounting the table felt 2 to the slate 1, the first CNC glue coating layer 5 is provided around the bottom surface of the table felt 2, and the first double-sided tape 6 is bonded around the side surface and bottom surface of the slate 1. Edges of the table felt 2 are fixedly mounted to the side surface and bottom surface of the slate 1 be means of the adhesive connection between the first CNC glue coating layer 5 and the first double-sided tape 6. The table felt 2 is prevented from directly contacting the slate 1 due to the arrangement of the first CNC glue coating layer 5 and the first double-sided tape 6 between the table felt 2 and the slate 1. In this way, the velvet of the table felt 2 is prevented from bonding to the slate 1. The first CNC glue coating layer 5 with a width corresponding to that of the second adhesive surface is provided on the bottom surface of the table felt 2, which can improve the bonding strength between the table felt 2 and the slate 1. Since the velvet on the bottom surface of the table felt 2 is just a layer of floating fluff, when the bottom surface is bonded with the first double-sided tape 6, the table felt 2 is prone to rebound after bonding due to the small amount of glue, the weak bonding, and the small tensile force it can withstand. The rebound of the table felt 2 leads to relaxation, which affects the speed of the ball. Therefore, the first CNC glue coating layer 5 with structural adhesive properties is applied to the bottom surface of the table felt 2, so that the first CNC glue coating layer 5 is integrated with the base fabric woven by the warp and weft lines of the table felt 2, which can significantly increase the bonding strength between the table felt 2 and the first double-sided tape 6, thereby effectively preventing the table felt 2 from rebound. Moreover, the first adhesive surface is coated with the pressure-sensitive adhesive, so that the characteristic of the pressure-sensitive adhesive that it does not contaminate the bonded surface after peeling is utilized to solve the problem of the increasingly thick mixture layer of adhesive and the velvet on the slate 1.
[0089] The straight notch 10 and the first oblique notch 11 are set at the position on the table felt 2 where the side pocket opening 8 is located, and the straight notch 10 is configured for alignment. In this way, the straight notch 10 is coincident with the center line of the slate 1, which facilitates the alignment of the position of the table felt 2. The table felt 2 at each pocket opening is cut by setting the straight notch 10 and the oblique notch 11, such that the table felt 2 can be unloaded through the notches when the table felt 2 is stretched on the pocket openings of the slate. This facilitates the attachment of the table felt 2 to the arc-shaped notch of the slate 1, so that the table felt 2 can be firmly bonded to the slate 1 without wrinkles. Compared with the nailing method, the horizontal wrinkles of the table felt 2 are significantly reduced, and the unevenness of the table felt 2 at the pocket openings is avoided. In addition, the processing of 30 850 bolt holes on the bottom surface of the slate 1 and 30 15 countersinks on the top surface of the slate and 0.02 cubic meters of narrow wooden strips for nailing U-shaped nails can be eliminated. In this way, a large amount of high-quality softwood and the workload of on-site mounting of wooden strips can be saved every year.
[0090] The top surface of the table felt 2 is provided with four longitudinal detection lines 3 extending along the length direction of the table felt 2 and two transverse detection lines 4 extending along the width direction of the table felt 2. Since the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 have been drawn in advance, anyone can pull the table felt 2 with both hands for aligning with the edges of the slate 1, so that the tension on the table felt 2 is balanced and the warp and weft lines are respectively horizontal and vertical. In this way, the velvet of the table felt 2 can be directed in the same direction, making the ball move smoothly and not prone to change line. Therefore, this method can significantly improve the mounting quality of the table felt 2. With the assistance of the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4, the table felt 2 is bonded to the slate 1 through the first double-sided tape 6 and the first CNC glue coating layer 5, resulting in easy, simple and quick mounting of the table felt 2. This reduces the difficulty of mounting the table felt 2, so that even ordinary person enables to mount and replace the table felt 2 instead of a professional technician, thereby reducing the using cost and maintenance cost of the pool table.
[0091] The first CNC glue coating layer 5 and the second CNC glue coating layer 7 can be formed by automatic spraying using a CNC glue coating machine. The CNC glue coating machine can accurately control the width, thickness and shape of the glue coating, which can reduce the amount of glue coating, ensure the quality of glue coating, and significantly improve work efficiency, thereby saving labor effort. It is difficult to accurately control the width and amount of glue coating by manually coating structural adhesive.
[0092] In the method of the present disclosure, the table felt 2 is formed by cutting using a CNC laser fabric cutting machine. The CNC laser fabric cutting machine can accurately form the arc-shaped notches, the straight notches 10 and the oblique notches 11 by cutting. The cooperation of the CNC laser fabric cutting machine and the CNC glue coating machine can form an efficient assembly line operation.
[0093] In addition, the second CNC glue coating layer 7 is arranged at the areas on the top surface of the table felt 2 around the side pocket openings 8 and the corner pocket openings 9, and is adhesively connected to the bottom surface of the slate 1 through the second double-sided tape 6. In this way, the table felt 2 at the portions corresponding to the pocket openings can be firmly bonded to the slate 1 to prevent the table felt 2 from loosening due to the rebound of the tension.
Embodiment 4
[0094] A pool table adopting the above method is provided. As shown in
[0095] For the pool table of the present disclosure, the table felt 2 is bonded to the slate 1 by means of the first CNC glue coating layer 5 and the first double-sided tape 6, which can prevent the velvet of the table felt 2 from bonding to the slate 1. The first CNC glue coating layer 5 can improve the bonding strength between the table felt 2 and the slate 1. The first CNC glue coating layer 5 with structural adhesive properties is provided on the bottom surface of the table felt 2, so that the first CNC glue coating layer 5 is integrated with the base fabric woven by the warp and weft lines of the table felt 2, which can significantly increase the bonding strength between the table felt 2 and the first double-sided tape 6, thereby effectively preventing the table felt 2 from rebound. Moreover, the first adhesive surface is coated with the pressure-sensitive adhesive, so that the characteristic of the pressure-sensitive adhesive that it does not contaminate the bonded surface after peeling is utilized to solve the problem of the increasingly thick mixture layer of adhesive and the velvet on the slate 1. The table felt 2 is bonded to the slate 1 through the first double-sided tape 6 and the first CNC glue coating layer 5, resulting in easy, simple and quick mounting of the table felt 2. This reduces the difficulty of mounting the table felt 2, so that even ordinary person enables to mount and replace the table felt 2 instead of a professional technician, thereby reducing the using cost and maintenance cost of the pool table.
[0096] In an embodiment, the slate 1 is provided with the first arc-shaped notch for forming the side pocket opening and the second arc-shaped notch for forming the corner pocket opening. Areas on a top surface of the table felt 2 around the first arc-shaped notch and the second arc-shaped notch are each provided with the second CNC glue coating layer 7. As shown in
[0097] The areas on the top surface of the table felt 2 around the first arc-shaped notch and the second arc-shaped notch are each provided with the second CNC glue coating layer 7, and the second CNC glue coating layer 7 is bonded to the bottom surface of the slate 1 through the second double-sided tape 6, which can also prevent the velvet of the table felt 2 from bonding to the bottom surface of the slate 1. In addition, by virtue of such arrangement, the table felt 2 at the portions corresponding to the pocket openings can be firmly bonded to the slate 1 to prevent the table felt 2 from rebounding due to tension to affect the performance and appearance of the table felt 2, thereby improving the assembly quality of the table felt 2.
Embodiment 5
[0098] A table felt 2 of a pool table is provided herein. As shown in
[0099] Since the first CNC glue coating layer 5 is provided around the bottom surface, the table felt 2 can be adhesively connected to the slate 1 through the first CNC glue coating layer 5 and the first double-sided tape 6, thereby achieving the rapid mounting and replacement of the table felt 2, and preventing the velvet of the table felt 2 from bonding to the slate 1. Portions of the top surface corresponding to six pocket openings are each provided with the second CNC glue coating layer 7. When the bottom surface of the table felt 2 is bonded to the bottom surface of the slate 1, the second CNC glue coating layer 7, as well as a part of the top surface of the table felt 2, is located at the bottom surface of the slate 1. A part of the second double-sided tape 6 is bonded to the second CNC glue coating layer 7, and the other part of the second double-sided tape 6 is bonded to the bottom surface of the slate 1, so as to connect and reinforce the top surface of the table felt 2 around the arc-shaped notches with the bottom surface of the slate 1, resulting in a more firm and reliable connection between the table felt 2 and the slate 1. The marking cuts 12 at both ends of the longitudinal center line facilitate the rapid positioning of the table felt 2 and the slate 1 in the width direction. The straight notches 10 provided at both ends of the transverse center line facilitate the rapid positioning of the table felt 2 and the slate 1 in the length direction. Moreover, the portions of the table felt 2 at each pocket opening is cut by setting the straight notches 10 and the oblique notches 11, such that the table felt 2 can be unloaded through the notches when the table felt 2 is stretched on the pocket openings of the slate. This facilitates the attachment of the table felt 2 to the arc-shaped notch of the slate 1, so that the table felt 2 can be firmly bonded to the slate 1 without wrinkles, thereby reducing the stress applied to the portions of the table felt 2 at each pocket opening. Compared with the nailing method, the horizontal wrinkles of the table felt 2 are significantly reduced, and the unevenness of the table felt 2 at the pocket openings is avoided. In addition, the use and workload of 0.02 cubic meters of narrow wooden strips for nailing U-shaped nails can be eliminated.
[0100] In order to facilitate the bonding of the table felt 2, the top surface is provided with four longitudinal detection lines 3 extending along a length direction of the table felt 2 and parallel to a first edge of a slate 1, and is provided with two transverse detection lines 4 parallel to a second edge of the slate 1. The first edge of the slate 1 is longer than the second edge of the slate 1. The four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 are each formed by a straight line, a plurality of marking points or a plurality of line segments using a CNC line drawing machine, that is, the straight line, the plurality of marking points or the plurality of line segments are drawn on the table felt 2 by the CNC line drawing machine to form the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4. For the convenience of distinction, the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 can be different from the table felt 2 in color. For example, in a case where the table felt 2 is green, the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 can be straight lines, marking points, line segments or patterns in white, golden, red or black.
[0101] When mounting the table felt 2, the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 on the top surface of the stretched table felt 2 are coincident with edges of the side surface of the slate 1, which indicates that the table felt 2 is located at the expected mounting position. The table felt 2 can be visually detected through the four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4, which facilitates the rapid positioning of the table felt 2 on the slate 1, thereby improving the table felt mounting efficiency.
[0102] The four longitudinal detection lines 3 and the two transverse detection lines 4 are directly formed by means of a CNC line drawing machine, which is accurate in line positioning, reliable and efficient. The cooperation of the CNC laser fabric cutting machine and the CNC line drawing machine facilitates efficient assembly line operation on the table felt, thereby facilitating industrial production and cost reduction.
[0103] In summary, the embodiments described above are merely illustrative of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. It should be understood that various modifications, replacements and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit of this application shall fall within the scope of the disclosure defined by the appended claims.
