Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to the manufacture of knitted articles in the form of foot-covering innersoles or protective stockings on circular stocking knitters.
  • the knitted articles in the form of foot-covering innersoles or protective stockings, are presently manufactured on circular stocking knitters and are then taken up again to attach a standard elastic to them, by means of stitching, on the border of each of them.
  • DE-C-931 000 is a document describing such a prior art method.
  • the elastic which is inserted by stitching, in addition to having a negative effect on the production cost, also poses problems of adapting to the foot, that is, problems of wearability of the manufactured article in that the elastic can be irritating.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a knitted article of the above type in which the elastic is manufactured directly on the circular machines by being processed in the knit of the manufactured article, which prevents the use of an elastic separately attached to the innersole, any stitching operation and the costs pertaining thereto.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a knitted article in the form of a foot-covering innersole or protective stocking with improved features of adaptability and wearability in that the elastic border produced on the circular machine, although it is made in one piece with the knit, is soft and thin and does not create irritations when wearing the manufactured article.
  • the foot-covering innersole or protective stocking being examined consists of two parts 11, 12 in the manner of pocket-type heels, which face each other and are joined in one piece by a middle zone 13 of the manufactured article, and it is provided with an elastic border 14.
  • the article being examined is manufactured on circular stocking knitters, having a needle-holder cylinder which is also capable of reciprocating rotaly motion, and provided, in the known manner, with stitch-drop stations for rotations both in one direction and in the other direction of the cylinder.
  • the article is manufactured by making an initial part out of elastic, with reciprocating motion and with a part of the needles on the cylinder, so as to form a first semi-annular part 15 of the elastic border 14. Then, a first pocket 11 (in the manner of a heel) is knitted, with reciprocating motion, using the needles on the machine as needed. After having appropriately made the intermediate part 13, the second pocket 12 (in the manner of a heel), which faces the first part and is joined with the first part by means of the intermediate part, is then made. The manufactured article is then finished by making, always with a reciprocating motion and with the desired number of needles, a second part made of elastic 15', whose ends are joined by knitting to the ends 16 of the first elastic part 15. Thus, the two elastic parts 15, 15' together form the annular elastic border 14 on the entire border of the manufactured article.
  • the article in the form of a foot-covering innersole or protective stocking, is made as one piece on the circular machine with reciprocating motion, including an elastic border, without the need for taking up again for subsequent processing and with improved features such as wearability which cannot be obtained with the prior art methods.
