"Brassiere"

Bras suitable for swimsuits and the bust parts of one-piece swimsuits have so far been used as far as they are in Ways of a knitting process were made, mostly by sewing in prefabricated elastic shells made of plastic wire mesh or the like stiffened. The fabrics used for such articles mostly consisted of differently structured Woven, knitted and hosiery goods that have been sewn together in a complicated sewing process. To this extensive and lavish To simplify sewing work, a process has already become known in which, for example, in a flat, two-dimensional Goods knitted bust part stabilizing threads made of copolymers were knitted in, which were later used in Fix it on the form with the other threads and after cooling the article a permanent, elastic Give shape.

The invention is based on the object of providing a brassiere or the bust part of a bathing suit as far as possible to be made by machine with the elimination of any sewing work except for small perfection work.

The invention consists in that the brassiere including the straps and those with excess goods worked out Bust parts in a single operation as a hose

009849/1593

made of body slip on a circular knitting machine is, whereby the fabric surpluses of the worked out bust parts by reducing the strength of the knitted fabric are generated as a result of increased thread consumption.

The carrier tapes are expediently made up of a number of rows of stitches knitted over the full needle ring by interruption along a row over two of the respective Armholes created corresponding parts of the needle roller circumference. This interruption can be caused by a thread change be made with a chemically or by the action of heat releasable material. The interruption can also be done by moving out the pendulum thread guide must be generated over the corresponding areas.

The areas of the tube adjacent to the dividing lines can be knitted in a one-to-one weave or made of easily tangled yarn.

The change in the firmness of the individual bra areas can be achieved by changing the firmness of the goods be brought about within the rows or among the rows or by a combination of both measures.

Furthermore, preferably in the side parts, areas can be provided which are wholly or partly made of elastic Threads made of rubber, plastic, such as, for example, polyurethane, polyamide or the like. .

The brassiere according to the invention is after manufacture expediently fixed, preferably by using saturated steam, hot air or the like, optionally with addition of swelling agents. Furthermore, individual threads made of a copolymer with a low melting point can also be processed, which fuse with the goods with a higher melting point when they are fixed and thus stabilize the shape of the bra after it has cooled down.

By the proposed according to the invention production of a brassiere on a circular knitting machine, with With the same advantage that single or double cylinder machines can be used, it becomes possible for the first time to use a brassiere including the carrier tapes in one body slip width one step, apart from the subsequent fixation of the particular shape, to completely manufacture the brassiere automatically the right body slip for every size has, closure parts such as snap fasteners, zippers or the like are not necessary. Nevertheless, such parts could be without can be further incorporated by making slits along the knitting sticks during the knitting process.

The possibility of making the brassiere on modern circular knitting machines also offers the possibility of not just any strengths of individual brassiere areas to realize, but also to apply surface designs in any way, for example tips, ornaments or the like. When combining colored and / or plated patterns, double-cylinder machines are expediently used. The essential features of the brassiere according to the invention, that is, the fully machine production of the Straps, the elaboration of the bust parts, the attachment of any slots for closure elements or the like can be calibrated implement both machine types in the same way.

The threads made of a copolymer for the later Stabilization of the bust parts after the fixing process can easily be done in a Plattler process in the neutral zone incorporate into the knitted fabric so that its non-textile feel cannot be felt on any side of the fabric because it is above it mostly the pattern threads come to rest.

Also, if the existing machines are in your Equipment is not completely complete, yarns are used in which the melt thread is in the middle or in the core

009849/1593

of the thread and so after fixing the stabilizing forces in the middle zone of the thread come into effect «The The outer capillary threads retain their pleasant, soft textile character with regard to the handle and give it the garment has airy, moisture-permeable properties when worn.

During the knitting process, areas of elasticity made of rubber or elastic plastic threads or similar yarns can be found at any point on the body incorporate.

Further features and advantageous properties of the inventive Brassiere emerge from the following description of the shown in the accompanying drawing Execution examples. It shows:

Fig. 1 the knitted corset blank with the separable straps,

Fig. 2 the knitted corset blank .with separated Straps and

Fig. 2 shows the brassiere on the fixation form.

The manufacture of the brassiere according to the invention or swimsuit top takes place as follows:

The brassiere 1 is expediently in a one-to-one weave or started with a narrow double border made of easily tangled, fluffy yarn. After this, in the final state the area 2 representing the carrier tapes has reached a certain width, which is denoted by b in the example, is the Separation of these areas along two opposing sub-areas of the needle and rim circumference has begun. This Separation can be done either by changing an acetate thread and one after the Höhena by changing the thread

CP 9 8 U 9/1 5 9 3

Partial row 3 is knitted, with the same in the back Way, the thread has to be changed twice more «The subregions intended for separation are shown in FIG. 1b denotes the circumferential length c.

The separation of the carrier tapes 2 can also take place immediately in the knitting process by all pendulum thread guides in sections be excavated. But it is also possible to knit completely without a transition and to cut through the areas c to be done later by cutting with scissors or a filament.

Subsequent to these dividing lines some more Rows of ladder-safe yarn or knitted in a one-to-one weave) »until the elastic bodice 4 begins. This bodice part 4 then becomes unequal according to what is known per se Strength sequence in the rows or under the rows, the actual bust parts 5 are made. The manufacture of Areas of different strengths do not cause any problems with circular knitting machines, with strength differences both in a row and in the rows with one another can be produced · One can use the combined pendulum thread guide process and the block reinforcement process work to "depending on the material and processing, transparent or non-transparent parts of the bust 5 to knit »At the same time, the front vertical reinforcement bar 6 is also knitted during this operation.

After completion of the subsequent inelastic belt part 7, the knitting process for production of a brassiere with a few rows 8 made of ladder-proof yarn. Should a swimsuit be made, so the lower part of the same can be further triokt in a manner known per se. The lower part is then shaped, the open edges are secured by inserting fluffy thread and the trousers part in the crotch in as well connected in a known manner by a short seam.

FLg. 3 then shows the brassiere on the body or on a body-like shape. To make it easier to put on or take off the brassiere «, during the knitting process specially made slots are made by cutting needles or cutting boards, in which closing elements of any kind, such as zippers, built in can be.
