Abstract

The invention relates to a method for knitting berets and the machine for knitting such berets. WE SHAPE A FIRST ROW OF 10 STITCHES WITH A THREAD, STOCK THIS FIRST ROW ON 6 STORAGE NEEDLES, KNIT THE BERET WITH THE THREAD AND 2 KNITTING NEEDLES, UP TO A LAST ROW OF 11 MESHES AND ASSEMBLY TWO TO TWO THE MESHS OF THE FIRST AND LAST ROWS ON THE KNITTING NEEDLES 2 AND STORAGE 6 AND PLATES 4, AND WE BIND THEM WITH THE KNITTING THREAD 40, 41.

Description

The present invention relates first of all to a method of knitting a

  article to be closed on itself, for example a beret, in which the article is knitted from a first row of stitches to a last row of stitches and the respective stitches are tied together in pairs

  first and last rows.

  Usually, after knitting the article from the

  first to the last row on the needles of a seg-

  bedding of a straight or circular knitting machine

  In this way, the knitting was taken out of the loom and it was placed on a shearing station, for example a punch holder, on the punches of which the two end rows were glued mesh by stitch to assemble these meshes in pairs and face to face. and each double stitch thus formed is bonded by means of a thread for example by a chain stitch.

  Such a method had disadvantages.

  First of all, it was necessary to provide rows of knit gripping stitches adjacent to the rows of ends to be joined to face gripping jaws.

which were then cut.

  The output of the knitting of the craft and its transfer on the

  remailers were delicate operations.

your.

  The joining, or tying, of the end rows is

  made with a different binding yarn from the yarn

  Although the knitting of the article was

  se with an unbleached yarn, that is to say that the article was dyed once knitted and closed on itself, because of the difference of titrag son of knitting and binding,

  they did not react in the same way to

  ture, and it resulted / a tinted smudge on the surface

  of the article at the location of the binding yarn.

  The Applicant, by the present invention, therefore aimed to eliminate these disadvantages, that is to say to -tricoter the strict length necessary for knitting, -prevent the transfer of knitting from one machine to another, and postpone the dyeing issues at the single level of

wire manufacturer.

  For this purpose, the present invention relates to a method of

  knitting of an article to close on itself, no-

  particularly a beret, characterized by the fact that, on the same

  mesh, we store this first row, we trico-

  the article with the knitting yarn to a final row of stitches and the respective stitches of the first and last rows of stitches are assembled in pairs and the stitch pairs thus formed are bound together with the

knitting yarn.

  Thanks to the invention, the article is knitted without

  gripping and closed in on himself without having to

  carefully, to close it on himself, to transfer it to

a rewarming station.

  In the case where the finished article must be united, it is

  easy to use one and the same continuous knitting yarn

  of the desired shade, which at the end of the process for binding the end rows also serves as the

  binding Then the uniqueness of the color of the article is ensured

respected.

  In a particular implementation of the process of the in-

  vention, we assemble the stitches of the end rows

  two to two and face to face in double stitches.

  We can then advantageously assemble the meshes of

  end rows by an additional row of meshes

  assembly res formed on these end stitches.

  In this case, it is possible to bind or block the double meshes thus constituted by a second row of additional locking meshes formed on the meshes of the assembly row, or by a wire locking portion.

crossing these double stitches.

  In a different implementation of the process of the in-

  vention, we assemble the stitches of the end rows

  by the stitches in the last row of stitches, respectively

  the pairs of stitches thus constituted by a blocking portion of the knitting yarn passing through the

  meshes of the last row playing a role of assembly.

  The present invention also relates to a machine

  knitting machine for carrying out the process defined above

  The machine shown in FIG.

  to knit articles to be closed on themselves, in par-

  Particular berets, and comprises a horizontal bed 1, rectilinear, supporting knitting needles 2, a vertical support 3 of cradles 4, an oblique needle bed 5, also rectilinear, supporting storage needles 6, a support plate 7 of teeth 8, fixed to the plate 7, which will be discussed in more detail below, the other parts of the machine, such as the wire guide, with its carriage, and

  not all training devices have been re-

  presented, for the reason already mentioned above.

  It will be noted already that the beds 1 and 5 are

  rectilinear, and of specific lengths, whereas the

  vention could also include circular beds.

  The essential thing is to be able to knit the articles to be closed on themselves on segments of needle bed, following a

  movement of the wire guide back and forth.

  The knitting needles 2 and storage needles 6 are

  formed and arranged in their respective beds 1 and so as to be able to be driven in translation on themselves, also in a reciprocating movement, by conventional cam means cooperating with their heels.

  In the position shown in FIG.

  seen, always classical way, to be able to move one of the two needle beds 1 and 5 of a half-step compared to the other

  for the assembly and binding operations of the two

  end issues discussed later.

  The plates 4 are interposed respectively between the knitting needles 2 to control the stitch of the stitch row preceding the current one

  These platinets can also be

would be as suitable.

  From a spool of knitting yarn and a guide-

  thread arranged to deposit the knitting yarn on the needles, knitting the beret is done starting

  by forming a first row of stitches.

  Thus, the knitting and storage needles being, in the yarn setting position, interposed between each other, with their pallets open, the thread guide deposits the yarn to form, with a first portion of yarn, a corrugation on the yarns. The heads of the storage and knitting needles The stocking needles are lowered and the knitting needles are moved forward to move them to the thread take-up under the thread guide.

  folded by a second portion of thread to form the mail-

  the ones from the first end row with their heads on the second row stitches in formation

  and their feet on the storage needles 6.

  This first row of stitches will remain stored, all during knitting, on the storage needles 6,

  only knitting needles 2 continuing to

  With the platinets 4 and the storage needles 6 facing each other, the platinettes 4 are lowered to control the legs of the stitches of the second row.

  The knitting thus continues with the formation of successive sectors or steps, as taught by the prior art, by successive decreases and increases, and this up to the last row of stitches. This state of knitting, with its two rows of end stitches, is illustrated in FIG. 2 The stitches 10 of the stitches of the first row are engaged on the heads of the storage needles 6 The stitches of the last row are engaged, by their heads 11, on the heads of the stitches knitting needles 2, and by their feet 12, on the platinets 4 as well as on the heads 13 of the stitches of the penultimate row O The operations of assembly and binding of the stitches

  In summary, the method of assembly and binding of the two end rows of the knit described above consisted of arranging the stitches 10 and 11 in pairs and facing each other and assembling them and binding them by at least one or two strands 40 and 41 of the knitting yarn passing through them

  is schematically illustrated in FIG.

  It could also have been

different.

  We could thus have assembled the stitches no longer

  rectilinear strands of the knitting yarn, but

  additional stitches formed on the stitches of

  tremity, as shown in Figures 7 and 8.

  In the case of FIG. 7, the double stitches 10 and 11 are assembled by a row of stitches 50, formed on these double stitches, and they are connected by a second row of locking stitches, or tied, 60 ,

  formed on the assembly row 50.

  In the case of FIG. 8, the double stitches 10, 11 are assembled by a row of stitches 70, formed on these double stitches, but they are connected by a strand 80 of the knitting yarn, and not by a row of

  mesh, crossing the stitches 70 of this row of assemblies

wiring.

  We could still assemble the meshes 10 and 11 in

  slipping through 11, playing the rail rattle

  wicking, through the stitches 10 and by sewing a portion of the one- or two-strand knitting yarn providing a binding function through the stitches 11, as illustrated

in Figure 9.

  When felting the beret the portions of the

  rating, playing the role of assembly and / or binding, and the

  end stitches cling to each other.

  However, because of the risk of unraveling and

  which result from the implementation of the process of the

  Figure 7, the other implementations are preferred.

  Of course, and as already mentioned above, the portion of assembly wire and / or binding may be that of a new wire, but preferably it is the wire of

  With the method and machine described above and

  illustrated in the drawings, we can, as we have seen, trico-

  not only berets but also all other articles

  close on themselves, such as sheaths of pro-

stump removal.
