<p>ÄObjectÜ According to the present invention, three-dimensional cloth molding which has superior feel and durability, and a method for three-dimensionally molding cloth which offers low production cost and high productivity are provided. ÄMeans for Solving the ProblemÜ Cloth layer 85 having a print pattern, foam 87, and fabric 88 having one surface on which a plastic film is laminated are locationally placed on elastic sheet 86. While foam 87 is still in a viscoelastic fluid state, cloth 85, foam 87, fabric 88, and elastic sheet 86 are integrally pressurizingly compressed for predetermined time duration by upper metal mold 80 and lower metal mold 82. Thereby, foam 87 is fixedly adhered to the back surface of cloth 85 to support a print pattern of the cloth, and is three-dimensionally molded so as to conform to the profile of the print pattern. The plastic film of fabric 88 is almost fixedly adhered to the surface of foam body 87, but only the peripheral edge portion of the fabric 88 is thermally adhered by additionally heating to the back surface of the cloth. As a result, foam body 87 is completely sealed between the cloth and the fabric. <IMAGE></p> |
