Description

Procedure for closing the toe of the stocking in flat-knitted stockings or socks. The invention relates to a method for closing the toe of the stocking when produced on the flat weft knitting machine with the correct shape up to the point Stockings or socks, with the end of the stocking in a smooth, the required Point worked in the same width as the length of the piece of goods will.

The well-known stockings made on flat weft knitting machines and socks are made to shape, with the tips except for several needles or reduced to a needle or provided with strings, which then be closed by a warp seam. The same procedure will also be used the stockings and socks made on circular knitting machines are completed at the top.

Reducing the tips in flat-knitted stockings takes a lot of time and includes many sources of error. For example, through Temperature fluctuations in covering defects and needle breakage arise. The work is also flawless Edge of goods often causes difficulties. These disadvantages increase with larger ones The subtleties are still essential, with the knitting of the knitted fabric only under larger ones Difficulty is possible. It is known for semi-regular stockings, to reduce the tip of the foot, but still with a thread guide over the whole Work the foot width evenly and later the tip according to the resulting Cut out openings. It is also known in the case of round-knitted stockings and socks to sew the toes off on special sewing machines.

The object of the invention is to repair the tips of flat-knitted stockings and to complete socks without diminishing while saving reinforcing thread material.

The task is with a tip that is in the same width is worked, solved according to the invention in that the in the stocking tip usually used reinforcement thread only according to the desired shape of the cut out Stocking tip is incorporated into the piece of goods corresponding to the tip. Of the The thread guide with the reinforcement thread at the tip is only controlled so far that the reinforcement thread in the smooth stocking-ending piece of goods has the shape of the point already shows. In addition, for the purpose of marking the desired shape the stocking tip or to facilitate the subsequent sewing of the stocking tip any cover flower or press pattern markings in a manner known per se be incorporated. The stocking or sock with a tip according to the invention is thus made in such a way that it can be up to the beginning of the tip in a known manner properly shaped or worked as a knitted piece of the same width and the one for the tip required rows as a smooth or patterned piece of goods in the same width The work continues while the reinforcement thread corresponds to the shape of the tip is incorporated. After the knitted fabric has been blown off, the tip is placed on a known Special sewing machine sewn according to the desired shape. Through this way of working Any reduction in the top is eliminated, and those known as disadvantages Sources of error are thus excluded.

In the F i g. 1 to 6 the invention is explained. It shows F i g. 1 and 2 the stocking tip according to the invention, FIG. 3 and 4 with the stocking tip additional cover flowers, F i g. 5 and 6 another embodiment of the stocking tip.

The stocking or sock is known to the beginning of the tip in Way properly shaped or worked as a knitted piece of the same width and for the Pointed rows are required as a smooth or patterned piece of goods 2 in The same width 1 continued and completed with a few rows 3. Here the reinforcement thread is only incorporated according to the shape 2 a of the tip, whereby the shape 2a of the tip already in the smooth or patterned piece of goods 2, along the boundary line 7 can be seen. After the knitted fabric has been blown off the tip according to its shape 2a, d. H. along the boundary line 7 (from 4 to 5 or 4 'to 5') sewn after the item 2 according to FIG. 2 or 4 was folded.

This way of working comes on the flat weft knitting machine any lessening in the top in omission, whereby also the thereby sources of error are excluded.

However, it is readily possible to use cover flowers in a manner known per se or press patterns 6, 6 '(Figs. 3 and 4) along the boundary line 7 in the smooth or patterned piece of goods 2, to facilitate the subsequent sewing, to incorporate.

It is also possible to use the reinforcement thread according to the method shown in FIG. 5 shown Incorporate embodiment and according to F i g. 6 to fold the item and sew.
