Abstract

To count the stitches while hand knitting yarns, the point of a knitting needle consists of a coil and a core, moulded into plastics or covered by other claddings. The coil can be without a core, and the coils can be of different materials. The coils can be integrated on or in one needle and the other needle is fitted with magnets, in the pair of needles. Where the coil forms the needle point, this can be permanent, adjustable or removable. The coil can be simply wound round the needle point, and micro light sensors can be fitted to the points for colour selection. The needles can also be connected to a stitch counter. ADVANTAGE - The assembly gives a counting facility integrated into the needle point or forming the needle point.

Description

Stricknadeln zum Stricken von Wolle und dergleichen, wobei diese aus den Spulen gewickelt ist oder dieselbe integriert haben kann.Knitting needles for knitting wool and the like, wherein this is wound out of the coils or integrated the same may have.

Die vorgegebene Stricknadel soll einerseits das Maschenzählen erleichtern und andererseits in der Lage sein, die Spitze der Nadel zu bilden oder in der Spitze integriert zu sein.The given knitting needle should on the one hand facilitate stitch counting and on the other hand in the Be able to form the tip of the needle or in the Great to be integrated.

Wobei ich leider nicht weiß, was bereits bekannt ist.Unfortunately, I don't know what is already known.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, Strickmaschen zählen zu können, sowie auf einen extra Aufbau der Na del verzichten zu können.The invention has for its object knitting stitches to be able to count, as well as an extra structure of the Na del to be able to do without.

Die Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß man Spulenkörper in (1) die Nadelspitze einbringt (2) oder die Nadelspitze aus den Windungen (3) formt, wobei diese mittels einem Kunststoff bezug (4) oder bei einer dehnbaren Ausführung mittels einer dehnbaren Masse überzogen werden. Das gegenteilige Stück bzw. die andere Nadel enthält einen Magneten (5), der, wenn dieser an der Spule vorbeikommt, einen elektrischen Impuls in der Spule ergibt, der dann zu einem Verstärker wei tergeleitet wird und dort zu digitalen Signalen weiter verstärkt und gelegt werden kann, oder auch zu einem elek trischen Impuls für elektrisch-mechanische Zählwerke geformt werden kann.The object is achieved in that the bobbin is introduced into ( 1 ) the needle tip ( 2 ) or the needle tip is formed from the turns ( 3 ), these being covered by means of a plastic cover ( 4 ) or, in the case of a stretchable version, by means of a stretchable mass . The opposite piece or the other needle contains a magnet ( 5 ), which, when it passes the coil, results in an electrical pulse in the coil, which is then passed on to an amplifier, where it is further amplified and laid to digital signals can, or can be formed into an electrical impulse for electrical mechanical counters.

Eine weitere Ausführung der Erfindung wäre, daß man die Nadelspitzen mit fotooptischen Lichtsensoren in Mikro bauweise belegt und diese an einen Computer weitergibt, der entweder piept, wenn man die falsche Farbe eingege ben hat oder die Strickmaschine nicht weiterstrickt, wenn der Sensor nicht die gleiche Farbe zeigt.Another embodiment of the invention would be that the Needle tips with photo-optical light sensors in micro design and passes it on to a computer, which either beeps if you enter the wrong color ben or has stopped knitting if the sensor does not show the same color.

Die mit der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß man sich einen separaten Aufbau einer Strick spitze ersparen kann sowie, daß man die Spulen auch um Strick- oder sonstige Nadeln wickeln kann oder diese in die Stricknadel miteinarbeiten kann, wobei im ersten Fall der Maschenzähler nicht extra eingearbeitet werden muß, um einen Anschluß an einen elektrischen Maschenzähler zu haben.The advantages achieved by the invention are that you can build a separate rope top can spare as well that the spools also around knitting or can wrap other needles or these in the knitting needle can work with, in the first case the stitch counter does not have to be specially incorporated to connect to have an electric mesh counter.

Claims
