Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for knitting, while increasing stitches, capable of eliminating an empty needle state in a preliminary stage course for increasing stitches and capable of preventing the formation of a large hole in the first course for increasing the stitches. SOLUTION: This method for knitting, while increasing stitches, comprises sequentially knitting the stitches for a course with a needle group (F0, F1, F2, F3, F4) disposed on a needle bed and holding all the stitches of a knitted fabric during the knitting operation and with a needle B1 placed between the two adjacent needle F1, F2 among the other needle group (B0, B1, B2, B3, B4) disposed on the other needle bed. Subsequently, all stitches on either one of right and left sides of the needle B1 among stitches newly knitted by the use of the other needles (F2, F3, F4) are transferred to the other needle group (B2, B3, B4) on the stitch-increasing direction side adjacent the needle B1, and all stitches held with the other needles (B2, B3, B4) are transferred to the needle group (F2, F3, F4, F5) so that the stitch held with the needle B1 is transferred to the empty needle side of the two needles F1, F2.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a knitting method for forming a knot in a course direction by a knot increasing technique.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 1 and 2 show a conventional knitting method. Each of these conventional knitting has two needle beds facing each other on a flat knitting machine, and is performed by needle groups arranged on each of the front and rear needle beds. Since the front needle and the rear needle are in rubber contact, the front and rear needle groups are arranged so as not to interfere with each other even if they are projected to the knit position.

[0003] The additional knitting method shown in FIG. 1 is performed by the following steps. The knitting of the course C1 includes the needle F0 on the front needle bed,
Knit the yarn Y with F1, F2, F3, F4, and needles F2, F
3, the loop knitted in F4 is inserted into the needles B2 and B of the rear needle bed.
3. Transferred to B4, racked the rear needle bed in the direction of increasing eyes, and transferred the transferred loops to needles F in the front needle bed, respectively.
3, F4, and F5 are formed by transferring.
At this time, the needle F2 on the front needle bed becomes an empty needle. Also,
The knitting of the next course C2 is performed by the needles F0 and F of the front needle bed.
It is formed by knitting the yarn Y at 1, F2, F3, F4 and F5. By this step, the base of the loop La knitted with the needle F2 (empty needle) is expanded in the eye direction by one pitch. Therefore, the perforation becomes large in that portion.

FIG. 2 shows a knitting method (Japanese Patent Publication No. 62-5 / 1987).
No. 2063) is excellent in that it compensates for the disadvantage of large perforations in FIG. However, since the yarn Y of the previous course C1 needs to be entangled with the yarn Y of the course C3 by crossing the course at the portion corresponding to the perforation, the number of steps is increased, and the knitting step becomes complicated.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to eliminate empty needles in a course prior to increasing the number of stitches and eliminate large holes in the first course in which the number of stitches is increased. It is.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the above object, the present invention provides a flat knitting machine having two opposing needle beds, wherein all the stitches of the knitted fabric being arranged on one of the needle beds are retained. One needle group and one needle positioned between two adjacent needles in the one needle group among the other needle groups disposed on the other needle bed are sequentially arranged for one course. Knitting, and then the stitches newly knitted with the needle group of one needle bed,
All the stitches on either side of one needle of the other needle group are transferred to the other needle group on the stitch direction side adjacent to one needle of the needle group, and then the other needle Needle group arranged on the other needle bed such that the stitch held by one needle of the group is transferred to the empty needle side of the two needles arranged on one needle bed Are transferred to the needle group of one needle bed. The stitches knitted by one needle of the other needle group are configured with or without twists.

[0007]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 3 is an explanatory view of a method for increasing the number of knits without a twist according to the present invention. FIG. 3A shows a knitting structure without a twist, and FIG. 9 shows a knitting operation of a knitting structure without a twist.

[0008] The additional knitting method of the present invention is carried out using a flat knitting machine having two needle beds opposing each other in the front and rear directions, and the front needle bed and the rear needle bed each have a needle group capable of knitting movement. are doing. Since the front needle group and the rear needle group are in contact with rubber, they are arranged so as not to interfere with each other even if they protrude to the knit position. Among these needle groups, the front needles used in the eye increasing step are F0, F1, F2, F3, F
4, F5, F6, and the rear needles used in the meshing process are B0, B1, B2, B3, B4,
It is represented by B5 and B6.

(1) In the knitting of the course C1, the front needle F
0, F1, F2, F3, F4 are the yarns Y of the knitting being knitted.
Are held, and the stitch is formed by the knitting operation.

(2) Needle F1 and needle F in knitting of course C2
2, the rear needle B1 located therebetween and all the front needles F0, F1, F2, F3, F4.
Is a knit. Here, for knitting without twist,
The yarn feeder G is also moved straight in a position corresponding to the rear needle B1.

(3) The loop formed by the front needles F2, F3, F4 is transferred to the rear needles B2, B3, B4.
(4) Rack one of the needle beds so that the rear needle B1 and the needle F2 are opposed to each other, and loop the loop knitted to the rear needle B1 and the loop transferred earlier to the front needle F2. , F3, F4, F5.

Next, (5) the knitting of the course C3 is started, and the needles F0, F1, F2, F3, F4, F5 and the needles B0, B
A loop is formed by knitting using 1, B2, B3, B4, and B5. As described above, according to the present invention, the knitted stitches do not move and there is no empty needle in the course C1 before the stitches are increased. In the first course C2 in which the number of stitches was increased, the number of additional stitches was B0, B1, B2,
Since it is knitted and transferred at B3, B4, and B5, the stitch is small, and a large perforation as in the related art is not formed.

Next, FIG. 4 is an explanatory view of a method of knitting with a twist according to the present invention. FIG. 4A shows a knitting structure with a twist, and FIG. The knitting operation of the knitted structure with eyes is shown.

In this knitting operation, the difference from no twist is different only in the step (2) in the knitting process of the course C2. That is, in the knitting of the course C2, since it is desired to increase the number of stitches between the needles F1 and F2 of the front needle bed, the rear needle B1 and the front needles F0, F1, F2, and F located therebetween.
3. There is no difference in that all of F4 is knit,
In order to twist the loop of the rear needle B1, first knit the needles F4, F3, and F2 in this order, further advance the yarn feeder G to the left, and when the yarn Y is positioned below the needle B1, The needle B1 is advanced to the knitting position, and in this state, the yarn feeder G is turned in the reverse direction, and the yarn Y is wound around the left side of the needle B1 halfway from the lower side to the upper side. Then, the needle B1 is knitted, and the yarn feeder G is advanced leftward, and the needles F1, F
Knit in the order of 0,.

Accordingly, a loop is formed around the rear needle B1 in a state where the yarn Y is wound around one round. Since the intersection of the twists enters the perforated portion formed by increasing the number of stitches in this way, the perforated portion is closed and becomes less noticeable.

[0016]

[Comparison between the knitting method of the present invention and the conventional knitting method] Courses C1 and C2 as boundaries where stitches increase
There is no difference between the two in that the perforation occurs at the stitched portion and the state of intersection of the yarns when viewed as a knitted fabric. However, since the knitting method is different, the size of the hole is different.

That is, in the course C1 before the number of stitches is increased, in the present invention, the knitted stitches do not move and there are no empty needles. On the other hand, according to the conventional additional knitting method shown in FIG. 1, the knitted stitch moves, and the needle F2 becomes an empty needle.

The first course C2 with an increased number of stitches
In the present invention, the stitches are knitted by the rear needle B1 and transferred, so that the stitches are reduced. On the other hand, in the conventional extra stitch knitting method of FIG. 1, the extra stitch is a stitch of an empty needle (needle F2), and the stitch is large.
Large perforations are formed.

Further, according to the conventional additional knitting method shown in FIG. 2, the yarn Y of the course C1 in the stage before increasing the number of stitches jumps over the loop of the first course C2 in which the number of stitches is increased. In contrast to the complicated process, the present invention does not involve a complicated operation such as jumping and simplifies the knitting operation.

[0020]

According to the knitting method of the present invention, the knitting process is simplified because there is no movement of stitches, no empty needles, and no jumping of loops, and the stitches are small and large holes are formed. Since it is not formed, a beautifully stitched stitch can be knitted.
