Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for designing knitted products produced on a knitting or knitting machine with at least one storage device for receiving the necessary for the production of the knitted product on the knitting or knitting machine data, at least one display device for displaying design images of the knitted product and at least one input device to change the design images.
  • Such patterning devices are for example from the EP 0 640 707 A1 , of the DE 44 31 898 A1 as well as the WO 94/11794 known. With these patterning systems, it is possible to fully exploit the knitting possibilities of electronically controlled, fully automatic knitting or knitting machines. It can be used to design and produce knitted fabrics with intricate weaves, highly complex color patterns and elaborate contours.
  • the parameters of the knitted product to be produced are input in different input groups, which can or must be edited separately. These input groups mainly contain form information, color information, structure information, jacquard information and mesh size information. In addition, yarn properties and machine parameters must be entered. From these data, computer-controlled processing sequences form data with which a knitting or knitting machine can produce the desired knitted product.
  • the knitted product is usually printed on the display device of the patterning machine in the form of a threadline (eg in the case of the yarn guide) WO 94/11794 ), which illustrates the knitting process - knitting series for knitting series - by symbols.
  • the knitted product is also input and then converted by a conversion program into the control data for the knitting machine.
  • the known from the above documents sampling systems have conversion programs that can convert the yarn path representation in a mesh display and display. However, a direct conversion of the mesh image representation in a yarn guide is not possible.
  • the present invention has for its object to enable the generation of control data for the production of a knitted product for a knitting or knitting machine users without knowledge of the thread running line symbolism.
  • the design device it is now possible to use both the yarn path representation and the mesh image representation for input and correction of the elements of a mesh product, wherein simultaneously the data of the other representations are mitver St.
  • the device is thus suitable as a design tool for both pure fashion designers and for more technically oriented users.
  • the mesh image representations and the associated yarn guide representations can be displayed simultaneously on the display device.
  • machine closer representations of the mesh product can be additionally displayed by the design device, if desired.
  • the mesh image representation may preferably contain a realistic, three-dimensional representation of all elements of a mesh product such as mesh, catch, float, wherein individual elements can be incorporated by offset and Um yogaoperationen in a different direction than the wales of the basic knit.
  • the type, the shape and the size of the mesh in the mesh image representation can be specified and changed.
  • the design means may comprise means for calculating and mapping the mesh shape depending on the type, size and shape of the adjacent stitches and depending on the properties of the knitting yarns used. This results in a particularly realistic image of the mesh product to be produced.
  • Structural patterns such as braid, aran, etc. have sections in which stitches from the vertically extending wales are laterally transferred to the mesh of another wale. This creates forces in the knitted fabric which influence the orientation of the stitches.
  • the user can be offered various types of representation. Once the Grundmaschen claimed in unchanged arrangement and only the stitches, which are laterally and / or vertically suspended, be shown as elongated as the distance from their Monschenchenstäbchen to the suspended position. However, the mesh can also be represented as it looks in accordance with the forces acting in the mesh forces in reality, whereby the lying in the immediate vicinity of the staggered stitches stitches of the Grundmaschen saides be somewhat elongated or shortened. The user can also be given the opportunity to change individual elements such as mesh, catch or float in their position according to his visual perception of the overall mesh.
  • the threadline representation of the knitwear may include symbols for all the elements of the knitwear such as knit, catch, floats and the needles of the knitting or knitting machine and their activities such as knitting, non-knitting, transferring, taking over, dropping, etc., and preferably symbols for parameters of knitting or knitting machine such as yarn guide and carriage movements, fabric take-off, needle bed offset or the like.
  • the design means comprises means for combining mesh groups of the mesh image representation and symbols of the threadline representation into modules and memory devices for storing these modules. These modules can then be reused later in the same mesh product elsewhere or even as a new mesh product as a unit.
  • means may be provided for the mesh-technically correct integration of the modules when they are inserted into the stitch pattern representation and / or yarn running representation of a mesh product. The connection of the mesh between the module and the basic knit of the knitted product then corresponds to the real conditions.
  • the design means may also comprise means for graphically superimposing a plurality of knitting courses of a threadline representation into a knitting course or for combining a plurality of knitting courses of a stitched picture representation on the at least one display device.
  • several rows of knitting can be pushed together so that they are represented in their vertical extent as a single row of knitting.
  • applications in the form of spatial structures can be represented very realistically on the display device.
  • Special advantages of these facilities in jacquard patterns for example, in a three-color jacquard, the three rows of knitting necessary for producing a visual knitting line can be pushed together in a row.
  • the stitches on the back of the jacquard are placed behind the stitching on the jacquard front panel, which corresponds to a realistic appearance of a jacquard knit. In other double-faced knits, too, the stitches of the second surface appear as viewed on the first surface.
  • the mesh product to be produced has a tipping area, then this can be imaged horizontally according to the knitting sequence on the knitting or knitting machine knitting row for knitting row.
  • the stitches, which do not knit in the spike area are stretched so long until they participate in the knitting process again. But even here, the presentation can be "pushed together" so that a more realistic representation results, in which the rows of stitches between the Spickel Hochen obliquely with respect to the courses of the basic knit run.
  • jacquard patterns can be imaged in a so-called rectified representation, in which all color knitting rows for generating a line of sight of the jacquard pattern are shown one above the other in the vertical direction.
  • the design device can be devices for the graphic equalization of combined knitted rows in the stitch pattern representation and / or superimposed knitted rows in the threadline representation on the at least have a display device.
  • Knitting modules can be formed in two ways: either as a cutout of a knitted fabric in stitch pattern or thread running or as a separate knit, which is created in stitch pattern or threadline representation.
  • a knitting module produced in the threadline representation can be used at any time in a mesh image representation of a knitted product and is then also there to be seen in mesh image representation. It is also possible that knitting modules form the edge of a knit.
  • the modules When inserted into the design image of a mesh product, the modules can be joined together horizontally or vertically, added offset to one another, or even placed at a defined distance from one another. You can also specify an area to be filled by a specific module. If the modules are not included in this area, the remaining area will be filled with corresponding sub-modules.
  • attributes For each knitting module additional attributes can be stored, which indicate their possibility of use. These attributes may include, for example, the mirroring capability of the module to the left and right or up and down or the integrity of the module, i. H. the requirement that the module can only be used as a whole in the mesh product. With the help of attributes, it can also be stated that the module must be knitted for itself when it is formed in the mesh product. The machine fineness in which the module must be formed or the maximum possible offset of the module can also be specified as attributes.
  • meshes of the module in its part replace a mesh of basic knitted fabric. If, on the other hand, stitches are formed in the row of basic knits and stitches are transferred in the module knitting row, then a transfer row is inserted in the basic knit. If stitches are transferred in the knitting course of the basic knit and stitches are formed in the module knit line, then the stitches of the module in its area replace the stitches of the next knitting course of the basic knit. If stitches are transferred both in the basic knit and in the module in the same knitting row, the offset and transfer movements take place according to a predeterminable ranking.
  • a kick-off row is inserted in the basic knit, if a row of throw-off rows does not already exist in the same knitting row of the basic knit.
  • height repeats can be marked in which the knitting sequence must not be changed by the module integration routines.
  • the same module can be inserted into basic knits with a variety of weave types.
  • the user can specify how the process automatism should react to the different types of knitting in the border area of the module.
  • Such specifications can be defined individually for each needle, which lies directly inside or outside the module contour. In this way it can be determined with which assignment type - stitch, catch, no stitch - a needle in the border area has to be modified.
  • separate boundary modules are defined. Such a boundary module can be inserted directly at the boundary between knitting module and basic knit or in a knitting technology-related distance to it.
  • the design means may also include a jacquard generator for designing the jacquard visible side tie structure with the jacquard back of a stitched and / or stitched knit fabric.
  • the colors of the visible side can be specified in the stitch pattern or threadline representation or as a meshed color image. All jacquard connection structures between the visible side and the back, which represent the prior art in the knitting technique, may already be contained in a memory of the device and are offered to the user in menu presentation for use. If the user has selected a connection structure of the menu, the desired connection structure is automatically formed by the jacquard generator depending on the jacquard viewing side. However, the user can also use the jacquard generator to define a connection structure and save it.
  • the design means may therefore conveniently comprise an interactive means for influencing the translation of the design images of the knitted product into control data for the knitting or knitting machine via the at least one input device. This makes it possible, by hand, one of several implementation options of the design images into the control data. Storage means may also be provided for storing frequently required implementation algorithms specified by the interactive device between design images of the knit product and control data for the knitting machine. This gives the user the option of selecting an existing algorithm for a given conversion problem, so that it does not have to be reentered.
  • the interactive device may also be adjustable so that the user can determine, for all detected implementation problems, whether his interactively made inputs should automatically be considered for the entire mesh product or, in general, for all knitted products to be manufactured.
  • the invention also relates to a method for the design of knitted products produced on a knitting machine, which is characterized in that the knitted product is displayed on a display device at least in stitched representation and yarn guide representation and the other representations are changed simultaneously when one of the representations is changed.
  • the mesh image representation and the threadline representation can each be converted into design data for the mesh product and stored in a common memory unit. For both types of representation of the mesh product thus a common data set is generated, whereby the simultaneous implementation of the change of a representation is facilitated to the other representation.
  • the invention also relates to a knitting machine having a design device according to the invention.
  • Fig. 1 shows a possible configuration of a knitted product design device according to the invention with a computer 1, a monitor 3 as a display device and a keyboard 2 and a graphics tablet 4 as input devices.

  • Fig. 2 illustrates the two different design images that can be displayed on the display device 3 of the design system. It is a mesh image representation 11 and a yarn guide 12 of the mesh product. Both representations 11 and 12 are generated from data of a common memory 10, which is symbolically indicated here. Even when editing and changing one of the two representations 11 or 12, the same data record on the memory 10 is changed in each case. This makes it possible to mitzuver Sn the other representation simultaneously when changing one of the representations 11 or 12.
