Definitions

  • the slitting of knits of crocheted and knitted fabrics has long been known, in particular for the production of plush knits.
  • the WO 01/20067 A1 describes a flat knitting machine in which cutting elements, instead of needles, are arranged in the grooves of one of the two opposing needle beds.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a way to separate stitches or tuck loops during the knitting process on a flat knitting machine, which is also applicable to double-surface knitted fabrics and does not limit the stitch formation.
  • a flat knitting machine with at least two oppositely arranged needle beds, which are each provided with a plurality of grooves in which needles are mounted longitudinally displaceable, which is characterized in that at least above one of the needle beds at least one cutting element bed is arranged with a plurality of grooves is provided, in which cutting elements are arranged to longitudinally displaceable for the separation of stitches formed on the needles or tongs.
  • the knitting of the knitting machine is in no way influenced by the cutting elements. It is thus possible to produce single-layer and double-sided knitted fabrics as well as tubular knits in plush quality.
  • the pattern of knitted fabrics is in no way limited.
  • the storage of the cutting elements in one or more separate beds also allows precise control of both the needles and the cutting elements. The reliability of the machine is therefore very high.
  • the groove pitch of the at least one cutting element bed corresponds to the groove pitch of the needle beds or a multiple of the groove pitch of the needle beds.
  • each needle or every second, third or fourth needle can be assigned a cutting element. No lateral offset of the needle beds or cutting element bed is required to cut the loops or tuck loops, but may be coarser than the pitch of the needle bed at pitches of the cutting element bed.
  • the length of the at least one cutting element bed is equal to the length of the needle beds. It can then be produced plush knits over the entire length of the needle beds and not only in certain areas of the needle beds.
  • each cutting element bed is associated with a portion of the underlying needle bed.
  • the individual cutting element beds can have the same or a different groove pitch.
  • these can be transferred from the needles on which they are located to the cutting elements of a cutting element bed arranged above this needle bed.
  • the cutting elements are introduced from the needle bed side between the legs of the stitches or tuck loops.
  • the at least one cutting element bed can also be arranged such that the stitches or tuck loops to be cut can be transferred from the needles of a needle bed to the cutting elements of a cutting element bed arranged above the opposing needle bed.
  • the cutting elements of the above the opposite needle bed arranged cutting element bed are introduced from the comb gap side between the legs of the mesh or tuck loops.
  • the stitches or tuck loops to be cut can be transferred to the cutting elements of the at least one cutting element bed by ejection of the needles.
  • the stitches or tuck loops are lifted over the comb gap, so that they can be introduced into the mesh or the tuck loops by a sprouting of the cutting elements.
  • the expulsion of the needles and cutting elements can be done for example via lock parts on the machine slide.
  • the flat knitting machine can also be designed such that the stitches or tuck loops to be cut can be separated by movement of the cutting elements of the at least one cutting element bed onto the needles and without ejection of the needles.
  • the cutting element beds can be aligned at a relatively large angle relative to the needle beds arranged in a v-shape and the cutting elements can be driven out far enough.
  • the needles may preferably have so-called box springs for spreading the meshes to be cut.
  • the equipment of the needles with box springs is not mandatory.
  • the stitches or tuck loops to be cut can be transferred to the cutting hook, the needle neck, a box spring, the open or closed needle tongue or the closed slider of a needle on a cutting element and / or can be cut by this. There are thus no special requirements for the needles used.
  • Fig. 1a shows a front needle bed 1 and a rear needle bed 2 of a flat knitting machine 100 in which latch needles 3, 4 are mounted longitudinally displaceable.
  • Over the needle beds 1, 2 are cutting elements 5, 6 for cutting stitches as part of a non-illustrated Mesh cutting device 150 is arranged, which has at least one arranged above the needle beds 1, 2 cutting element bed with a plurality of juxtaposed cutting elements 5, 6.
  • the cutting elements 5, 6 each have a tip 51, 61, a breast surface 52, 62 and a cutting surface 53, 63.
  • the needle 3 of the front needle bed 1 holds a stitch 7 in its thread space 33, which is bounded by the needle hook 31 and the closed needle tongue 32.
  • the needle 3 is located in Fig. 1a ) in its basic position, in which the mesh 7 rests in the direction of the arrow 71 on the tee-off ground 11 of the front needle bed 1 by the action of a knit trigger, not shown.
  • the needle 3 was driven by means of a drive device, not shown, in the direction of the arrow 300, wherein the needle tongue 32 was opened by the mesh 7 and the mesh 7 is now on the needle shaft behind the open needle tongue.
  • Fig. 1d shows the position of the loop 7 on the needle tongue 32 after completion of the movement in Fig. 1c ).
  • the needle 3 has been withdrawn so far that the stitch 7 is in its transfer position, just before its tee.
  • the cutting element 5 is now expelled in the direction of the arrow 500 and pushed into the loop 7, ie between introduced her mesh legs.
  • the tip 51 of the cutting element thereby slides laterally past the tongue 32 and into the thread space 33 so far that it projects through the loop 7.
  • the needle 3 is retracted in the direction of the arrow 301, whereby the mesh 7 is released from it.
  • the cutting element 5 is driven so far in the direction of the arrow 500 that the mesh 7 merges with the cutting surface 53 in the direction of the breast surface 52, slides on it and is thereby separated.
  • Fig. 1f the needle 3 is back in its basic position.
  • the cutting element 5 is also retracted to its home position.
  • FIG. 1 While in Fig. 1 the stitch 7 has been severed by a cutting element 5 which is located above the needle 3 with the stitch 7, shows Fig. 2 the separation of the stitch 7 by the cutting element 6, which is located above the opposite needle bed 2.
  • Fig. 2a shows the front and back needle bed 1, 2 of the flat knitting machine 100 with the stitch cutter 150 according to FIG Fig. 1 , The needle 3 is in its basic position according to Fig. 1a ).
  • the needle 3 was driven in the direction of arrow 300 into its transfer position, wherein the needle tongue 32 was opened by the stitch 7 and the stitch 7 and on the needle shaft behind the open needle tongue 32 is located.
  • the mesh 7 was widened by a box spring 34 on the needle 3 to facilitate the immersion of the cutting element 6 into the mesh 7.
  • Fig. 2c it is shown how the cutting element 6 expelled in the direction of arrow 600 and is pushed into the mesh 7.
  • the tip 61 of the cutting element 6 slides in the space between the box spring 34 and the needle shaft 35 and thereby immersed in the expanded mesh 7 a. Subsequently, a retraction movement of the needle 3, whereby the mesh 7 comes into contact with the cutting surface 63 of the cutting element 6 and is thereby separated.
  • Fig. 2d the needle 3 and the cutting element 6 were withdrawn in the directions of arrows 301 and 601 in their basic position.
  • the mesh 7 is cut open and has no contact with the needle 3 more.
  • the cutting elements 5 ', 6' are arranged horizontally for this purpose. The arrangement and design of the needle beds 1, 2 remains unchanged.
  • Fig. 4 shows the transfer of a stitch 7 from a needle 30 to a cutting element 5.
  • the slider 35 of the needle 30 and thus the thread space are closed.
  • the needle 30 was retracted in the direction of the arrow 331 to its transfer position.
  • the mesh 7 is located on the closed slide 35.
  • the cutting element 5 was so far advanced in the direction of arrow 500 that its tip 51 pierces into the thread space 36 and thus between the needle 30 and a leg of the mesh 7.
  • a variant of the acquisition of the mesh 7 is shown by a latch needle 3 on the cutting element 5.
  • the needle 3 has been driven here in the direction of arrow 300 in its mesh transfer position, in which the mesh 7 is located on the open tongue.
