Description

The invention relates to a method in the preamble of claim 1 specified type. Such a zipper half consists of a Clasp link row and on the other hand from a band fabric, which together be connected via web technology. The ribbon fabric is made of warp threads and out woven at least one weft, the weft in the form of Double shot loops is entered. The row of fastener links is created due to a sinuous plastic monofilament, the link-forming turns Dome heads at one end and reverse turns at the other have. When weaving, the row of fastener links comes on a strip of fabric to lie.

The connection between the fabric strip and the fastener link row provides a knitting thread, which is loop-shaped when weaving from this fabric strip lifted out and by gaps between the turns of the row of links through to the top of the row of fastener links, where his Loop heads are crocheted. The crocheted mesh heads form one Stitch structure. While the strips of fabric are on the underside of the Closure link row is located, the mesh structure covers the top of the Row of fastener links.

In the known method of this type (DE 24 34 978 A) there is in the strips of fabric emerging underneath the row of fastener links, which form a shed and with one across the entire width of the ribbon fabric Tie a uniform weft like a warp thread. This shot gets in shape of double-shot loops entered, and that is done by the edge of the tape fabric bearing the row of fastener elements. Because of that on the opposite edge of the band, the loop heads coming out Double shot are crocheted together, for which a separate crochet hook is required. There is a crocheted band edge, which the good appearance of the Half of the zipper compromised. When weaving the ribbon, sections of the Binding threads in a loop from the resulting strip of fabric lifted out and pass through the gaps between the turns of the Clasp link row on the top. Here is the generated loop of the a binding thread with a previously created loop of another Tie thread crocheted. For this crochet is a second crochet hook required. Sections of the binding threads thus create loop-forming Knitting yarns. Through the fabric strip below the row of fastener and the Crochet the loop heads on the top creates a connection of the Clasp link row with the fabric strip. For controlling the Weaving threads are not just a catch fork that is used to form loops leads, but also requires a second crochet hook. So that the catch fork that each selected section of a specific binding thread is one precise control required. This known method is complex and susceptible to interference.

The invention has for its object a reliable method in Develop the preamble of claim 1 specified type, in which the Product has a clean selvedge without a crochet edge, although one Ribbon fabric with double weft entries was woven. this will achieved by the measures specified in claim 1, which has the following special meaning.

In the invention there are warp threads under the row of fastener links in the finished product only in the level below the row of fastener links resulting strips of tissue run and not with each other are crocheted. These threads are referred to below as "additional warp threads" become. The special feature of the invention is that the knitting thread at the same time the weft thread is in the fabric strip and when weaving in the form of double weft loops binds with the additional warp threads there. When tying with the The double-weft loops through the gaps become additional warp threads passed between the turns of the fastener link row and on the Top of the fastener link row, crocheted with its loop heads. This Crochet of the double-shot loops partially cover the top of the Row of fastener links. The double-shot entries of the knitting thread therefore create a clean, on the opposite edge of the fabric strip stitch-free selvedge. The zipper half produced has a good appearance.

The crochet hook for connecting the double-shot loops from the weft-like Working knitting thread is the same crochet hook that covers the top cover of the row of fastener links. There are two compared to the prior art Components saved, namely a catch fork and a second crochet hook for the Loop ends of the double shots. The thread is entered by a weft needle and this weft needle not only creates the weave the additional warp threads in the fabric strip below the row of fastener links, but at the same time forms the gap between the turns of the Clasp link row passing through loops on the top to be crocheted together. Apart from the crochet hook, there is only one only tool required, namely the weft needle. This weft needle is not just a weft insertion agent for the knitting thread in the fabric strip but also a loop head former of the knitting thread for the crochet hook.

The crocheting of the loop heads generated by the knitting thread can, as in claim 2 proposes to be done by an immediate mesh-like link. How Claim 3 indicates, but can also be done indirectly. For this you use at least one auxiliary thread that provides the stitch-like connection. How to results from claim 5, such an auxiliary thread in addition to the stitch formation between the loop heads of the knitting thread, also an independent one mesh-like connection between the row of fastener links on the one hand and the underlying fabric strip on the other hand. Through a Such a further auxiliary thread is the connection between the row of fastener links and the underlying fabric strip improved.

In most applications, besides the fabric strip is with the on it a wide strap is also desired runs as a protruding flag next to the row of links. Such a lanyard serves e.g. for sewing fastening of the zipper half on a garment that to be equipped with a zipper. The good looks of the zipper half according to the invention is characterized by that in claim 4 Measures promoted. Such a carrier tape consists of carrier tape warp threads and a carrier tape shot, which in turn in the form of double shot loops in the Carrier tape warp threads is entered. The carrier tape double shot is also generated Loop heads arranged in that zone in the method according to the invention where the loops of the one entered in the adjacent fabric strip Knitting thread through the gaps between the turns of the fastener link row pass. The loops of the knitting thread therefore hold the loop heads of the Lanyard double shot firmly before being on top of the fastener link row, as already mentioned, knitted together like a stitch become. A flawless result then also occurs on the free edge of the carrier tape Selvedge, because the tape double weft on this edge into that of the Enter the shed produced by the carrier tape warp threads. The fabric of this product has then clean selvedges on both sides. That was previously, in the state of the art, with Double weft threads are not possible.

By the measures of claim 4 is on the free edge of the support band an otherwise required crochet hook for stitching the loop heads of the Lanyard double shot loops saved. The knitting thread in such a a zipper half with a carrying strap has a triple function. The first Function, as has already been mentioned, is that the knitting thread is a weft builds up the fabric strip below the row of fastener links. The second Function is that the knitting thread closes the row of fastener with the underlying fabric strips connects because it also weft in this strip of fabric is. The third function of the knitting strip is that To connect the carrier tape to the fabric strip.

In the invention, the row of fastener elements is regionally on its underside covered by the fabric strip already mentioned several times. On the on the opposite side are the mesh-like ones already mentioned Links of the loop heads of one or more knitting threads or Auxiliary threads. In addition or in addition, one could, according to claim 6, on the Provide additional warp threads with the top of the fastener link row tie such knitting threads and therefore the row of links on the top form better covering tissue.

In the method according to the invention, it is advantageous for the row of closure members when weaving the fabric strip and / or the carrier tape weaving technology from one To wind plastic monofilament, as proposed in claim 7. The production of the individual links and their connection mentioned conforms to the active thread working weft in the fabric strip. This coordinated winds the fastener link row and weaving the individual out of these turns formed links ensures a precise connection of the row of fastener links with the fabric strip.

The simplest product 3e of the method according to the invention is shown in Fig. 1e. You get this zipper half 3e when an actual lanyard is made is not needed for any reason. Here is a row of fastener links 17 by means of a knitting thread 4 with one only below the row of fastener links 17 fabric strips 38 connected by weaving. The knitting thread 4 will thereby in the form of double-shot entries 12 from the right side Shed entered, which is formed by warp threads 6a. The row of fastener links 17 consists of a plastic monofilament 8, which turns runs and thereby produces closure members 8c. The row of fastener links 17 has dome heads 8b on one longitudinal edge and on the opposite Longitudinal edge rear arches 8a. There are free between the closure members 40 Gaps 21.

When the zipper half 3e according to FIG. 1e is woven, the Fabric strips 38 from the weft entries 12 and the warp threads 6a below the closure link row 17, but the loop heads 13 of the Double shot entries 12 passed through the link gaps 21 and crocheted together using a crochet hook 22. The loop head 13 will passed through the inside of the loop of the preceding loop head 13. A mesh structure 16 is formed on the upper side of the row of links 17.

The product 3e of FIG. 1e uses that in a double weft 12 of the knitting thread 4 loop heads 13 formed at one edge, due to their crochet the row of fastener elements 17 with one another on this fabric strip 38 to connect via web technology. Therefore, the opposite selvedge 11 is on this product 3e smooth. The zipper half 3e has an attractive appearance.

One can basically do without a carrier tape for the product 3e from FIG. 1e and work the product 3e directly into an end product. But if with this If a support tape is subsequently required for product 3e, this will be the case in this case made separately and then associated with this product 3e. It is more advantageous but if you already have a carrier tape when weaving a fabric strip 38 row of fastener elements 17 woven thereon. This is shown in FIG. 1 explained in more detail.

Fig. 1 differs from Fig. 1e in that in addition to the above Fabric strips 38 with the fastener row 17 the actual carrier tape 1 arises. The carrier tape 1 is created from warp threads 6 and a weft thread 2, which also binds in the form of double-shot entries 25 in the carrier tape 1. At the end of these double tape shots 25, loop heads 15 are created again. These are now not looped for themselves, but by means of the knitting thread 4 of the Tissue strip 38 held. For this purpose, as shown in FIG. 1 on the selvedge 27, the loop head 13 from the knitting thread 4 through the interior of the loop head 15 pulled. By the resulting from the knitting thread loop heads 13 Mesh structures 16 consequently also become the carrier tape loop heads 15 recorded. One then also gets one at the free edge of the carrier tape 1 perfect smooth selvedge 10. The knitting thread 4 becomes, as can be seen from FIG. 4 by a lifter needle 22, which acts as a weft insertion means in the fabric strip 38 is used, formed into a loop and the loop heads 13 thereby created are intermeshed with one another by the crochet hook 24 which can also be seen in FIG. 1.

The zipper half 3a shown in FIG. 1a is essentially corresponding the zipper half 3 shown in Fig. 1 designed. The difference is there only in that the closure members 8c in the row of closure members 17 in are arranged at the same distance from one another as the double-shot entries 25 from the carrier tape shot 2 and the double shot entries 2 from the knitting thread 4. At the zipper half 3 of Fig. 1 were the distances of the closure members 8c twice as big.

In Fig. 1b is a modified version of FIG. 1 an Zipper half 3b shown. It differs by an additional one Auxiliary thread 9, the connection of the closure member row 17 with the Fabric strips 38 reinforced. In addition to that already in connection with FIG. 1 and 4 explained the lifting needle 22 for the knitting thread 4 and the crochet needle 24 for the Knitting thread 4, there is a second lifter needle, which lies between the carrier tape warp threads 6 and the warp threads 6a works. In addition, those created with the auxiliary thread 9 Loop heads crocheted together by a second crochet hook 34.

In the embodiment of FIG. 1c, the zipper half 3c has one Additional knitting thread 5. As can be seen in FIG. 4a, the additional knitting thread 5 also from a second lifter needle 23 in the form of a loop between the Closure members 8c of the row of closure members 17 are passed through, but in contrast to Fig. 1b, the resulting loop heads of the same Crochet hook 24, which is already in the loop heads 13 of the knitting thread 4 works. This second lifting needle 23 also works in the area between the Carrier tape warp threads 6 and the warp threads 6a of the fabric strip 38.

The zipper half 3d shown in FIG. 1d basically has the same structure as the zipper half 3 of Fig. 1. The difference only consists of 17 special warp threads in the area of the fastener link row 7 can be used. The special warp threads 7 are also from the Double-shot entries 12 bound in the fabric strip 38, but run over the turns of the individual closure members 8c. With these special warp threads 7, the row of fastener elements is additionally covered. The In this case, turns of the plastic monofilament 8 are not only through the stitch structure 16, but also through fabric parts from the warp threads 7 and the double weft entries 12 of the knitting thread 4 covered and opposite the tissue 38 and 1 held. The closure link row 17 can by helical or similar turns of the plastic monofilament 8 be prefabricated and subsequently through the double-shot entries 12 with the Tissue 38 or the adjacent carrier tape 2 are connected.

FIG. 2 shows a device for producing the zipper half 3 from FIG. 1 shown. It is a needle ribbon weaving machine 100 that simplifies is reproduced. The weaving phase is shown where the reed 18 is just before the attack. The carrier tape weft thread 2 is made of the warp threads 6 formed shed and entered with the additional warp threads 6a binding knitting thread 4 has been caught. The knitting thread 4 is with his Loop head picked up by his crochet hook 22 and still covers the large formed turn of a plastic monofilament producing the closure members 8c 8. The reed 18 is with a return 18a for the monofilament turn connected. The reed 18 moved in the sense of the double arrow pulls over the retriever 18a the large monofilament turn away and puts the plastic monofilament 8 around a mandrel 26 which is used to guide the emerging Closure members 8c is used. There is a loop lifter 19, which in the sense of shown arrows is movable and the laying of the monofilament turn supported. There is also a positioner 20 in its rear Position is reproduced.

3 and 4, the interaction of some machine parts Weaving machine 100 seen during weaving. It is different from Fig. 2 Weaving phase shown. The reed 18 is in the rear area his stroke movement. The lifting needle 22 guiding the knitting thread 4 is shown in FIG. 4 passed through the warp threads 6a forming a shed. This is the Knitting thread 4 has been brought to a reciprocating crochet hook 24 takes up the knitting thread 4. There is a monofilament insertion needle 14 for the plastic monofilament 8. This monofilament insertion needle 14 is in yours Entry position. With the help of the loop lifter 19 moved upwards the return movement of the monofilament insertion needle 14 of the plastic monofilament 8 formed a turn and placed over the closure member guide mandrel 26. At the same time as the loop lifter 19, the positioner 20 moves into its rearward position to wrap the fastener guide mandrel 26 to enable. The positioner 20 ensures an equal distance from the continuously newly formed closure members 8c. When moving the monofilament insertion needle back 14, the knitting thread 4 covers the monofilament turn formed. The Entry means 31 for the carrier tape weft thread 2 is closed in FIGS. 3 and 4 detect.

In order to achieve a collision-free passage of the lifting needle 22, the are with the warp thread 6a to be woven at an angle of 6 ° to 10 ° fed. The lifting needle 22 is moved up and down at an angle to the shed. The Locking member guide mandrel 26 is floating. The plastic monofilament 8 is guided through the monofilament insertion needle 14 under the mandrel 26. Each time a monofilament turn is inserted, the locking link guide mandrel 26 by the reciprocating positioner back into his Starting position brought. On the floating fastener guide mandrel 25 there are at least five monofilament turns for weaving facilitate.

4a shows, in an analogous representation to FIG. 4, a modified embodiment 100a the above-described needle ribbon loom. This machine 100a serves as already mentioned, for the production of those shown in Fig. 1c Zipper half 3c. 4a, the already mentioned second lifting needle 23 is closed recognize which like the first lifting needle 22 in the entry position of its additional knitting thread 5 is shown. The path of movement of the second lifting needle 23 deviates from that of the first lifting needle 22. The path of movement of the lifting needle 23 is essentially a vertical up and down movement. It takes place close to Reed between the carrier tape warp threads 6 and the obliquely fed warp threads 6a for the fabric strip 38.

4b shows a further modification 100b of the needle ribbon weaving machine, again in a position analogous to FIG. 4 of its machine parts. This machine 100b is intended for the production of the zipper half 3d from FIG. 1d. The Deviation from the weaving machine 100 exists through the use of the already mentioned special warp threads 7, of which at least two are provided. The two warp threads 7 are performed in opposing when changing the tray, so that the two warp threads 7 alternately in the deep warp threads 6a on the Inside of the lifting needle 22 and with the overhead warp threads 6a on the Outside of the lifting needle 22 are. With the already mentioned diagonally to Weaving path of the lifting needle 22 becomes the knitting thread 4 led that he indeed over the warp threads 6a lying in the lower compartment, but under the warp threads 6a lying in the upper compartment passes through and at the same time between passes through the two spread warp threads 7. The knitting thread 4 reaches in the height range of the crochet hook 22, where the knitting thread 4 with its Loop heads is crocheted. The crochet hook 22 will be seen in FIG. 2 is held by a carrier 29 and moved back and forth. For the registration of the The weft insertion needle serves for the carrying tape weft in the form of double loops 12 31. The knitting thread 4 is, like a double shot, with the Warp threads 6a crossed in the woven strip below the fastener link row 17, but also, as Fig. 1d shows, with the special warp threads 7 on the top of the Clasp link row 17.

5a to 6b show details of the device of FIGS. 2 to 4. On a Weaving pad 28, a cover 30 is resiliently arranged to guide the in 6a and 6b apparent closure link row 17 is used. The front of this Cover 20 serves as embossing anvil 32. As can be seen from FIGS. 6a and 6b, the plastic monofilament 8 passes between this embossing anvil 32 and the Rods 18b of the reed 18. This makes the originally round cross-section of the Monofilament 8 at the points marked with 35 in Fig. 6a and 6b flattened. A spring 36 recognizable in FIGS. 5a and 5b acts on the Cover 30 of the lock link guide.

As can be seen from Fig. 6b, the rods 18b take a certain distance to the embossing boss 32. When wrapping around the plastic monofilament 8 around Closure link mandrel 26, the deformations 35 come orthogonal to the weaving plane to lie. With these deformations 35, the shape of the closure members can 8c are favored. The notch depth of the deformations 35 can be determined by a 6b visible adjusting screw 32 can be adjusted. Through these notches 35 the coupling heads 8d for the closure members 8c to be formed therefrom produced when the plastic monofilament is wound into a spiral 8. The distances between the individual notches 35 correspond to the length of the closure members 8c to be formed. Accordingly, the Spacing of the rods 18b arranged in the reed 18.

   characterized in that extending along the top of the closing member row (17) opposite the woven strip (38) are special warp threads (7), which bind with the double pick insertions (12) of the knit thread (4) and form a woven product, which in sections covers the closing member row (17).
7. Method according to one of claims 1 to 6,
   characterized in that simultaneously with weaving of the woven strip (38) and/or of the carrying tape (1) the plastic monofilament (8) is wound by a weaving technique and produces the closing member row (17)
   and that the closing member row (17) thus produced is joined by the knit thread (4) to the woven strip (38).
8. Method according to claim 7, characterized in that the plastic monofilament thread (8) is passed under a closing member guide mandrel (26), deflected upwards and passed back while embracing the closing member guide mandrel (26) to form a winding,
   that at the same time a thread loop (15) of the carrying tape weft thread (2) is inserted into the shed of the warp threads (6) and caught at the side of the carrying tape woven (1) facing the closing member row (17) by the obliquely upwardly guided knit thread (4), which is then received by a crochet needle (24), formed into a loop head (13) and fastened by crocheting in front of the plastic monofilament winding,
   that the weft thread loop (15), the plastic monofilament winding and the knit thread (4) are beaten up by a weaving reed (18) and at the same time the plastic monofilament winding is brought to length and shape by a loop restoring device (18a) integrated with the weaving reed (18).
9. Method according to one of claims 1 to 8,
   characterized in that the closing member row (17) is manufactured as a continuous plastic monofilament with pre-embossing (35), then the winding arcs of the monofilament (8) are bent inwards in the front region at the embossing point (35) and in the remaining region form substantially superimposed closing members (8c), which are then interlocked by the knit thread (4).
10. Method according to one of claims 1 to 9,
    characterized in that the closing member guide mandrel (26) is guided in a freely floating manner through the wound closing members (8c) and after each insertion of a newly continuously formed closing member (8c) is held at an identical distance by a positioning device (20).
11. Method according to one of the preceding claims,
    characterized in that - with regard to the spacing of the closing members (8c) in the closing member row (17) - the carrying tape weft thread (2) and the knit thread (4) are inserted (25, 12) once or twice into the carrying tape (1) and/or into the woven strip (38).
12. Method according to one of the preceding claims,
    characterized in that the plastic monofilament thread (8) is fed with minimal tension to the weaving point (27).
13. Method according to one of the preceding claims,
    characterized in that the plastic monofilament thread (4) is notched at the weaving point by the weaving reed (18).
14. Method according to one of the preceding claims,
    characterized in that the closing member row (17) is prefabricated by helical or similar windings from a plastic monofilament thread (8)
    and that the prefabricated closing member row (17) is subsequently joined by the double pick insertions (12; 25) to the woven tape (1; 38).
