Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft Verfahren zum Verbinden mehrerer Gestrickteile auf einer Flachstrickmaschine, wobei ein erstes Gestrickteil auf den ersten Nadeln eines Nadelbetts derart gestrickt wird, daß die Verbindungskante zu wenigstens einem zweiten Gestrickteil nach dem Abstricken auf den Nadeln hängt, daß anschließend wenigstens ein zweites Gestrickteil auf den um ein oder mehr Nadeln voneinander beabstandeten zweiten Nadeln des Nadelbetts derart gestrickt wird, daß nach dem Abstricken die Verbindungskante zu dem ersten Gestrickteil auf den Nadeln hängt.The present invention relates to methods for joining a plurality of knitted parts on a flat knitting machine, wherein a first knit part is knitted on the first needles of a needle bed such that the connecting edge to at least one second knitted part after knitting on the needles depends, then at least a second knitted part on the second needles of the needle bed, spaced apart by one or more needles, are knitted such that after the knitting, the connecting edge to the first knit part hangs on the needles.
Bislang gibt es unterschiedliche Möglichkeiten, dreidimensionale Gestricke, wie sie z. b. für Sitzbezüge verwendet werden, zu stricken. Die beste Möglichkeit besteht darin, Bezugteile herzustellen, und die Teile anschließend miteinander zu vernähen. Dieses Verfahren hat den Nachteil, daß die Teile nach der Herstellung miteinander vernäht werden müssen, was mit zusätzlichen Kosten verbunden ist.So far, there are different ways, three-dimensional knit, as z. b. used for seat covers to knit. The best option is to make upholstery and then sew the parts together. This method has the disadvantage that the parts must be sewn together after production, which is associated with additional costs.
Die EP 0 361 855 A2 offenbart ein Verfahren zum Verbinden mehrerer Gestrickteile auf einer Flachstrickmaschine, im speziellen Fall die Herstellung eines gestrickten Autositzbezugs mit stricktechnisch hergestellten Schlaufen zur Befestigung des Bezugs an einem Sitzgrundkörper. Bei der Herstellung des Gestrickteils gemäß Figur 3 wird während des Abstrickens von Teil (5a) über die gesamte jeweilige Breite des Teils mit sämtlichen Nadeln des Nadelbetts gestrickt. Gleiches gilt sinngemäß für das zweite Gestrickteil (37), das zwar eine geringere Breite als das erste Gestrickteil (5a) und auch als das anschließend folgende dritte Gestrickteil (6a) besitzt. Auch das Teil (37) wird in allen Maschenreihen mit identischer Breite und mit sämtlichen zur Verfügung stehenden Nadeln des jeweiligen Nadelbetts gestrickt.EP 0 361 855 A2 discloses a method for joining a plurality of knitted parts on a flat knitting machine, in particular the production of a knitted car seat cover with knitting loops for fastening the cover to a seat base. In the production of the knit part according to FIG. 3, during the knitting of part (5a), knitting is effected over the entire respective width of the part with all the needles of the needle bed. The same applies mutatis mutandis to the second knitted part (37), which has a smaller width than the first knitted part (5a) and also as the subsequent third knitted part (6a). Also the part (37) is knitted in all courses of identical width and with all available needles of the respective needle bed.
Aus der EP 0 420 482 A1 geht ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zum Stricken eines Gewebes auf einer Flachstrickmaschine hervor, bei dem der Endbereich des gestrickten Gewebes bereits gegen Aufriffeln gesichert ist und beispielsweise ein Vernähen von Hand entfallen kann. Die Flachstrickmaschine ist mit zwei Nadelbetten ausgestattet, die eine maschinelle Anordnung von zusätzlichen Schlaufen ermöglicht, die ein Aufriffeln verhindern sollen.EP 0 420 482 A1 discloses a method and a device for knitting a fabric on a flat knitting machine, in which the end region of the knitted fabric is already secured against tearing and, for example, sewing by hand can be dispensed with. The flat knitting machine is equipped with two needle beds, which allows a machine arrangement of additional loops that are to prevent fraying.
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Verfahren zu schaffen, das es ermöglicht, ein dreidimensionales Gestrick auf möglichst einfache Weise herzustellen. Diese Aufgabe wird durch das Verfahren gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen sind Gegenstand der entsprechenden Unteransprüche. Es ist Merkmal des Verfahrens, daß zwei Gestrickteile separat auf einer Flachstrickmaschine gestrickt werden und an einem Punkt, vorzugsweise an einer Kante miteinander verbunden werden.It is an object of the invention to provide a method which makes it possible to produce a three-dimensional knit fabric in the simplest possible way. This object is achieved by the method according to claim 1. Advantageous developments are the subject of the corresponding subclaims. It is a feature of the method that two knit parts are knitted separately on a flat knitting machine and joined together at one point, preferably at one edge.
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren zur Herstellung eines dreidimensionalen Gestrickes kann man kurz mit der Bezeichnung "auf Lücke stricken" oder "versetzt stricken" bezeichnen. Hierbei wird das erste Gestrickteil auf ersten Nadeln eines Nadelbetts derart gestrickt, daß nach dem Abstricken die Verbindungskante zu dem zweiten Gestrickteil auf den Nadeln hängt. Diese ersten Nadeln können z. B. die Nadeln 1,3,5,7 etc. des Nadelbettes sein. Nun werden auf zweiten Nadeln des Nadelbettes, z. B. auf den Nadeln 2,4,8,10 etc. das zweite Gestrickteil abgestrickt, derart, daß am Ende ebenfalls die Maschen auf den Nadeln hängen, die die Verbindungskante zum ersten Gestrickteil bilden. Jetzt können die auf beiden Nadeln hängenden Maschen einfach miteinander verstrickt werden, wodurch die beiden Gestrickteile miteinander verbunden sind. Mit diesem Verfahren lassen sich auch mehrere Gestrickteile verbinden. Es lassen sich je nach Anzahl der Gestrickteile und je nach gewünschter Dichte des Stoffes beliebige Nadelteilungen verwenden. Z. B. kann die erste Nadel durch jede erste, vierte, siebte, zehnte etc. Nadel gebildet sein, während die zweiten Nadeln durch jede zweite, fünfte, elfte etc. Nadel gebildet sind. Die dritten, sechsten, neunten, zwölften Nadeln können entweder überhaupt nicht aktiviert oder für ein drittes Gestrickteil reserviert sein. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, Gestrickteile miteinander zu verbinden, deren Kanten unterschiedlich lang sind. So können z. B. die Maschen des ersten Gestrickteils auf die Nadeln 1,2,4,5,7,8,9,10 etc. hängen, während die Maschen des zweiten Gestrickteils auf den Nadeln 3,6,9,12 etc. hängen. Auf diese Weise werden jeweils zwei Maschen des ersten Gestrickteils mit einer Masche des zweiten Gestrickteils verbunden, so daß an der Verbindungskante das erste Gestrickteil doppelt so viel Maschen einbringt wie das zweite Gestrickteil. Dies ist besonders vorteilhaft bei der Herstellung dreidimensional geformter aus mehreren Gestrickteilen bestehender Teile, wie z. B. Kopfstützen. Die Dichte des Gestrickes läßt sich über die Nadelteilung variieren. Dieses Verfahren eignet sich vor allem zum Herstellen von dreidimensionalen Gestricken auf Flachstrickmaschinen mit einer Twinnadelbestückung. Die ersten Nadeln sind dann durch die A-Nadeln der Twinnadel gegeben, während die zweiten Nadeln durch die B-Nadeln der Twinnadeln gebildet sind. Für mehrlagige Gestricke benötigt man eine der Lagenanzahl entsprechende Anzahl an Nadelbetten. Mit diesem Verfahren lassen sich somit in technisch realisierbarer Weise sogar vierlagige Gestricke herstellen, wenn man eine Viernadelbettmaschine verwendet. Ebenfalls lassen sich schlauchförmige Gestrickteile erzeugen, wenn die erste und letzte Maschenreihe eines Gestrickteils auf allen Nadeln gestrickt wird, während die dazwischen liegenden Maschenreihen nur mit einer Nadelgruppe, z.B. 1,3,5 etc. gestrickt wird. Es ist auch möglich, die auf beiden Nadelgruppen gestrickten Gestrickteile synchron abzustricken.The process according to the invention for producing a three-dimensional knit fabric can be referred to briefly as "knit on a gap" or "offset on a knit". In this case, the first knit part is knitted on first needles of a needle bed in such a way that after knitting the connecting edge to the second knit part depends on the needles. These first needles can z. B. the needles are 1,3,5,7 etc. of the needle bed. Now on second needles of the needle bed, z. B. on the needles 2,4,8,10 etc. the second knitted part knitted, so that at the end also hang the stitches on the needles, which form the connecting edge to the first knitted part. Now the stitches hanging on both needles can simply be knitted together, whereby the two knitted parts are connected to each other. This method can also combine several knitted parts. It can be adjusted depending on the number of knitted parts and depending on the desired density of the fabric use any needle pitches. For example, the first needle may be formed by each first, fourth, seventh, tenth, etc. needle while the second needles are formed by every second, fifth, eleventh, etc. needle. The third, sixth, ninth, twelfth needles may either not be activated at all or reserved for a third knit part. In this way it is possible to combine knitted parts whose edges are of different lengths. So z. B. the stitches of the first knit part on the needles 1,2,4,5,7,8,9,10 etc. hang, while the stitches of the second knit part on the needles 3,6,9,12, etc. hang. In this way, two stitches of the first knitted part are each connected to a stitch of the second knitted part, so that at the connecting edge, the first knit part twice as much stitches brings as the second knitted part. This is particularly advantageous in the production of three-dimensionally shaped from several knitted parts existing parts, such as. B. headrests. The density of the knit can be varied over the needle pitch. This method is particularly suitable for the production of three-dimensional knitted fabric on flat knitting machines with Twinnadelbestückung. The first needles are then given by the A-needles of the Twinnadel, while the second needles are formed by the B-needles of Twinnadeln. For multi-ply knits one needs a number of ply number corresponding number of needle beds. With this method, even four-ply knits can thus be produced in a technically feasible manner, if a four-needle bed machine is used. Likewise, tubular knitted parts can be produced when the first and last course of stitches of a knitted part are knitted on all needles, while the courses of stitches between them are knitted with only one set of needles, eg 1,3,5 etc. It is also possible to knit synchronously the knitted parts knitted on both needle groups.
Die beigefügte Figur zeigt ein Beispiel eines Gestricks, das sich durch das Verfahren der vorliegenden Erfindung herstellen lässt.The attached figure shows an example of a knit fabric which can be produced by the method of the present invention.
Die Figur zeigt ein Gestrickbeispiel, bei dem ein erstes Gestrickteil 30 in Form einer Halbkreisscheibe mit einem zweiten rechteckigen Gestrickteil 32 zu verbinden ist. Das Besondere an diesem Beispiel ist, daß die miteinander zu verbindenden Kanten 34 und 36 eine unterschiedliche Maschenzahl aufweisen. Die Kante 34 der Halbkreisscheibe 30 ist wesentlich länger als die Kante 36 des rechteckigen zweiten Gestrickteils 32. Daher wird zuerst das erste Gestrickteil 30 auf jeder zweiten Nadel oder auf jeweils zwei von drei Nadeln etc. im Strickbereich des Nadelbetts abgestrickt, bis nur noch die Kante 34 auf den Nadeln des Nadelbettes hängt. Anschließend wird das zweite Gestrickteil 32 mit jeder Nadel im Strickbereich gestrickt, so daß die unterschiedlichen Maschenzahlen im Verbindungsbereich der Kanten 34 und 36 aufeinander abgestimmt werden können. Im Falle einer Twinnadelbestückung kann das erste Gestrickteil 30 nur mit den A- oder B-Nadeln der Twinnadeln gestrickt werden, während das zweite Gestrickteil 32 mit allen Nadeln gestrickt würde. Auf diese Weise lassen sich sehr einfach einteilige Kopfstützenbezüge herstellen.The figure shows a knitted example in which a first knitted
Die obigen Ausführungsbeispiele wurden mit Bezug auf ein einlagiges Gestrick beschrieben. Es können mehrlagige Gestricke nach der gleichen Technik hergestellt werden, wenn die Flachstrickmaschine die erforderliche Anzahl an Nadelbetten/Kämmen aufweist.The above embodiments have been described with reference to a single-ply knitted fabric. Multi-ply knits can be made by the same technique if the flat knitting machine has the required number of needle beds / combs.
Wo es technisch möglich ist, z.B. beim Stricken von Gestrickteilen auf unterschiedlichen Nadelbetten oder Nadelbettpaaren, wird man die verschiedenen Gestrickteile synchron stricken. Wenn mehrere Gestrickteile auf einem Nadelbett(paar) gestrickt werden, muß gegebenenfalls sukzessive gestrickt werden.Where technically possible, e.g. When knitting fabric pieces on different needle beds or needle bed pairs, you will knit the different knit parts synchronously. If several knitted pieces are knitted on a needle bed (pair), it may be necessary to knit successively.
