Definitions

  • the invention relates to a zipper with rows of coupling elements formed from a continuous strand of plastic, the coupling elements of which consist of a folded, S-shaped meander profile, and to a method for producing such a zipper.
  • Zippers whose rows of coupling elements consist of a continuous strand of plastic, are usually manufactured in such a way that the plastic strand (monofilament) is deformed into a helical coil or shaped like a longitudinally folded meander, provided with dome cams and fastened to a carrying strap on each side by sewing or weaving .
  • zippers are known, the helix of which is formed during the weaving process for the carrier tape in that the plastic strand is inserted as a weft thread (on a traditional boat loom).
  • the screw coil is produced on a needle loom, the screw coil being produced as an additional weft thread at the weaving point by winding it around a mandrel.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a zipper of the type described above and a method for its production, which avoid the disadvantages described; in particular, the zipper should be able to be produced particularly quickly and economically, be highly functional and permit dyeing in continuous dyeing systems with squeeze rollers.
  • the two strips of knitted fabrics can have the same or different widths.
  • the two strips of knitted fabric are advantageously joined together by sewing, gluing or ultrasonic welding.
  • a method of the type described at the outset is characterized in that the continuous plastic strand S-shaped is laid as a weft thread on a crochet gallon, knitting or Raschel machine so that it connects two knitting strips forming a carrier tape, and that the two Knitted strips by folding back the S-shaped plastic strand along one between the Knit strips extending longitudinal axis are placed on top of each other to form the carrier tape.
  • the plastic strand on each of the two knitted strips is advantageously placed in a number of stitches lying next to one another.
  • the two knitted strips with the S-shaped plastic strand can be dyed particularly advantageously before folding back on a continuous dyeing machine.
  • a further development of the method according to the invention is that the two fabric strips lying on top of one another are connected to one another by sewing, gluing or ultrasonic welding.
  • the zipper according to the invention can be produced on any suitable crochet gallon or weft knitting machine (Raschel machine).
  • a continuous strand of plastic 1 is introduced by means of a weft layer during the stitch formation as a weft thread that two knitted fabrics 2, 2a formed by means of further textile weft and crochet threads are connected by the synthetic strand.
  • Appropriate control of the thread layer creates an S-shaped, flat meander profile as a connection between two knitted fabrics, the plastic strand on each of the two knitted fabrics being inserted into at least one, but preferably a plurality of stitches 3 lying next to one another and thus being firmly connected to both knitted fabrics.
  • the thread layer for the plastic strand moves from one stop to the other, placing the plastic strand as a weft thread in each of at least one of the open stitches on the edge areas of the two resulting knitted fabrics, and remains there until the stitch formation is complete and the knitted fabric continues to move Working direction.
  • the weft threading device for the plastic strand is already at the next one or only at a later stitch formation is returned to the starting point and the plastic strand is then reinserted into the stitches of the two knitted fabrics arranged in the edge region.
  • the strand of plastic laid between two knitted bands as a connection is preferably pressed together in the middle of the stitch-free area by means of embossing rollers or stamping in a narrow area, so that a flattening of the cross section and at the same time a widening 4 arise transversely to the longitudinal axis of the plastic strand.
  • the S-shaped plastic strand is then bent back or simultaneously with the embossing process transversely to its longitudinal axis by 180 ° so that the embossing point is at the apex and the two knitted fabrics lie one on top of the other.
  • the knitted fabrics can then be permanently bonded to one another by means of heat or ultrasound treatment or by other suitable measures.
  • the semi-finished product in the form of flat, ribbon-shaped knitted fabrics can also be processed on continuous dyeing machines with an S-shaped plastic strand that is also still lying flat.
  • the carrier tapes are formed from two layers of knitted fabric instead of one layer of woven fabric or knitted fabric per side as in known zippers, there are no disadvantages with regard to the economy of the zipper according to the invention, since the two layers 2, 2a can be made correspondingly wider. There is even the additional advantage that, due to the stitch division, which is increased by up to twice the value compared to a single-layer design, much stronger crochet hooks can be used, with the corresponding positive effects on wear, stability and working speed.
  • the two knitted fabrics connected by means of an S-shaped plastic strand are given different widths. After the meander profile has been folded, a double knitted layer is created only in the edge area of the supporting tape, which supports the row of coupling elements.
  • the narrower knitted strip must be securely connected to the wider one in order to prevent the row of coupling elements from unfolding under load.
  • This can e.g. by a longitudinal seam or by gluing, e.g. by means of a thermoplastic mass, or by means of ultrasonic welding - if the knitted fabrics consist of thermoplastic yarn.
