Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure A warp knit, weft inserted lap side loop pile fabric for use as the loop, fabric for an article of manufacture which has hooks thereon to engage the loops to hold the articles of manufacture in a pre-selected position.

Description

LOOP PILE WARP KNIT, WEFT INSERTED FABRIC
This invention relates generally to a warp knit, weft inserted fabric which can be employed as the female fabric for securin~ an article of manufacture in a pre-selected position.
Therefore, it is an object of the invention to provide a warp knit~ weft inserted lap side loop pile fabric which can be employed as the female member of a securing means.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become readily apparent as the specification proceeds to describe the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the hook fasteners in relation to the novel loop pile fabric;
Figure 2 is the top view of the lap (technical back) side of the novel warp knit fabric;
Fi~ure 3 is a point diagram of the action of the guide bars of the knitting machine; and Figure 4 is a point diagram of the guide bars of the knitting machine to produce a modification of Figures 1-3.
Looking now to Figure 1, the new and improved fabric 10 with upstanding loops 12 are shown in position where they can be engaged by the hook member 11 which consists of the hooks 14 connected to a support member 16. In practice, the 33~

fabric 10 would be connected to a supporting structure (not shown) so that when the article to be secured in a fixed position, to which the hook member 11 is attached, as projected towards the loops 12, the hooks 14 will engage same and be secured therein. The hook member 11 is not, per se, a part of the invention and can be any suitable type, such as that formed by the molding or casting of nylon to form the desired configuration shown in Fiaure 1.
The fabric 10, as represented in Figures 1-4, is a warp knit, weft inserted fabric knit on a two-bar, weft insertion warp knitting machine. As indicated in Figures 1 and 2, the loops 12 are lap loops formed by the front bar of the knitting machine while the weft inserted yarn 16 is held therein by and between the chain stitch wales 18 formed by the back bar. The fabric 10 thereby presents a surface of loops 12 which can be readily manufactured on a warp knitting machine and at the same time provides added strength due to the insertion of the weft yarn 16.
Figures 1-3 show one form of the novel fabric constructed with the pattern wheel for the front bar 70 denier polyester yarn set to knit a 1-0, 2-1 tricot stitch 17 and the pattern wheel for the back bar 150 denier polyester yarn set to knit a 0-1, 1-0 chain stitch. The weft inserted filling yarn 16 is a 150 denier polyester J ll~9336 yarn. This form of the fabric provides a lap side loop the height oF which is slightly less than the spacing between adjacent wales of the chain stitch yarn 18.
If it is desired to provide a fabric with a longer lap side loop, the construction shown in Figure 4 can be employed with the pattern wheel for the front bar set to knit a 1-0, 4-3 tricot stitch and the pattern wheel for the back bar set to knit a 0~ 0 chain stitch. In the form of the invention the lap loop 12 for engagement by the hooks 10 14 will have a potential height greater than the distance between adjacent wales in the fabric.
It can readily be seen that a knit fabric has been disclosed which can readily function as the female member of a hook and loop connection and which does not readily tear due to the weft inserted yarn that provides stability in the weft direction of the fabric.
Although I have described in detail the specific embodiments of the invention, it is contemplated that changes may be made without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention and I desire to be limited only by the claims.

Claims (4)

I CLAIM:
1. A warp knit fabric having a face side and a back side, said face side of said fabric having a plurality of spaced wales of chain stitches, said back side of said fabric having a plurality of spaced wales of tricot stitches with a lap portion of said tricot stitches projecting therefrom to form loops and weft yarn inserted in the weft direction between the face side and the back side of said fabric and held thereby by said chain stitches.
2. The fabric of claim 1 wherein said weft yarn is located between the courses formed by said chain stitches.
3. The fabric of claim 2 wherein the height of a majority of the lap loops is less than the distance between adjacent wales of chain stitches.
4. The fabric of claim 2 wherein the height of a majority of the lap loops is greater than the distance between adjacent wales of chain stitches.
