Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a patterned knitted lace having good skin touch and clear pattern. <P>SOLUTION: Inserted yarns 4 each comprises a core yarn 11 and a cover yarn 12 covering the core yarn 11, and knitted in an extended state, when knitted. After the yarns are knitted, the core yarns 11 are shrunk, and the cover yarns 12 are wound on the core yarns, respectively, in a loosed state. The loosed cover yarns 12 are deformed into circular raised yarns deformably projected on one side of the thickness direction, and the knitted lace 1 can be obtained in the raised state. Thereby, the skin touch of the knitted lace 1 can be improved without using floated yarns for forming the raised yarns. Since the inserted yarns 11 are shrunk in the first direction, the knitted lace 1 is not curved on one side of the thickness direction, and is not densified in the first direction. Thereby, the patterned portion can clearly be separated from the ground portion to give the clear pattern. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a knitted lace with a patterned pattern having a raised fabric.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A knitting race is formed by warp yarns, has wales extending in a first direction, and a plurality of wales arranged in a direction orthogonal to the first direction are connected by weft yarns to knit a knitted fabric. The knitted fabric has a predetermined through hole made of warp and weft. By selecting the position where the weft thread is woven into the wale, the shape and arrangement of the through holes are adjusted,
A lace pattern is formed on the knitted fabric. In the knitted fabric, a dense pattern portion in which the pattern yarn is knitted and a sparse base portion in which the pattern yarn is not knit are formed, and a pattern pattern is formed by combining these pattern portion and the base portion. It is formed. Such a knitted lace with a patterned pattern is widely used in, for example, underwear for women.

When the sparse base portion of the knitted fabric is used in a place where the clothing is in direct contact with the skin, there is a problem that the feel and sweat absorption are poor. For this reason, in the conventional technology, a net-shaped bonding material knitted with cotton yarn or the like, which has excellent touch and sweat absorption, is separately attached to the part of the knitted lace that comes into direct contact with the skin to improve the touch and sweat absorption. ing.
However, the use of the bonding material causes a problem that the manufacturing process is complicated, the manufacturing cost is increased, and the aesthetic appearance of the pattern is impaired because the bonding material is visible through the through holes.

In order to solve such a problem, there is known another conventional knitting lace in which the touch is improved without using a bonding material, and FIG. 15 is a sectional view showing a conventional knitting lace 70. The knitting lace 70 includes a floating yarn 73 having a protruding portion 53a that partially protrudes on one side in the thickness direction. The floating yarn 73 is subjected to a raising process after knitting the knitted fabric, whereby fluffs 53b are formed on the protruding portions 53a. With the fluff 53b, the knit lace 70
It is configured so that a brushed state is obtained, the touch is improved, and sweat absorption is obtained.

FIG. 16 is a sectional view showing a simplified raising device 60 for raising the knitted lace 70.
The raising device 60 includes a plurality of raising rollers 62 and a rotating drum 6.
3, a supply roller 61 and a discharge roller 64. The rotating drum 63 rotatably supports a plurality of raising rollers 62 arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction. The supply roller 61 supplies the knitted fabric 51 toward the rotary drum 63, and the discharge roller 6
In No. 4, the knitted fabric 51 discharged from the rotary drum 63 is discharged from the rotary drum 63 toward the next step. Each raised roller 6
In No. 2, a cloth or emery paper is wound around the outer peripheral portion of the roller for forming fluff on the knitted fabric 51.

The knitted fabric 51 is conveyed by the supply roller 61 along the outer peripheral surface of the rotary drum 63. The knitted fabric 51 conveyed to a position facing the outer peripheral surface of the rotating drum 63,
The protruding portion 53 a of the floating thread 73 contacts the raising roller 62. The raising roller 62 partially cuts the fibers of the protruding portion 53a to form fluff 53b on the protruding portion 53a. After the fluff 53b is formed on the protruding portion 53a, the knitted fabric 51 is discharged from the rotary drum 63 by the discharge roller 64. By performing this work, the wing 53b is formed on the one side 52 portion in the thickness direction, and the knitted lace 7
0 obtains a raised state. The floating yarn 73 for forming the fluff 53b is selected to have such a thickness that the yarn itself is not cut during the raising process. Such a knitting race 70
And the manufacturing method thereof is disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 2735783.

FIG. 17 is a knitting organization diagram showing a conventional knitting lace 70. In the knitting lace 70, the knitted fabric 51 is knitted by the warp yarn 71, the weft yarn 72, and the floating yarn 73. The knitted fabric 51 has a chain stitch design, and the warps 71 form a plurality of wales 74. Each wale 74
Extend in the first direction A, which is the direction in which the wales 74 extend, and are arranged in the second direction B orthogonal to the first direction A.

The floating yarn 73 has a woven portion 73a woven into the loop-shaped portion of the wale 74 and a free portion 73b freed without being woven into the loop-shaped portion. In the floating yarn 73, when the braided portions 73a lined up in the first direction A come close to each other, the loose portions 73b project to one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace, and each loose portion 73b is moved in the first direction A.
And are densely arranged in the first direction A.

The free portion 73b is a protruding portion 53 that protrudes toward one side 52 of the knitted lace 70 in the thickness direction.
a. By the raising device 60 described above, the protruding portion 5
The knitted lace 70 is provided by raising the hair 3a.
Get brushed.

When a pattern pattern is formed on the knitting lace 70, the wale 74 is knitted with a pattern yarn and has a dense pattern portion having a large area of the yarn per unit area, and the wale 74 is knitted with the pattern yarn. It has a through hole that is not embedded and has a sparse base portion with a small area of yarn per unit area. The pattern portion and the base portion are combined to form a knitted fabric 51 with a pattern pattern.

[0011]

In the conventional knitting lace 70 shown in FIGS. 15 and 17, the floating yarns 73 are partially curved and close to the first direction A, and are closely arranged in the first direction A. To be done. Further, the floating yarn 73 has a thickness such that the yarn itself is not cut during the raising process, and a thick yarn is selected as compared with other yarns. By knitting the floating yarn 73 into the wale 74, the knitted fabric 51 has a large volume of yarn per the first direction A.

A pattern pattern having a clear contrast is formed in the base portion and the pattern portion as the difference in the density of the yarns is large, that is, the difference in the area of the yarns per unit area is large. However, in order to improve the feel, the floating thread 7
When 3 is knitted, the floating yarn 73 is knitted, so that the area of the yarn per unit area of the base portion is increased and the difference in the density of the yarn from the handle portion is reduced.

Therefore, the knitted lace 70 has a problem that the difference in the density of the yarn between the base portion and the pattern portion is small, the contrast of the pattern pattern is not clear, and a clear pattern cannot be formed. . Further, in order to form the fluff 53b, the protruding portion 5 protruding to the one side 52 in the thickness direction is formed.
It is necessary to increase the amount of protrusion of 3a, and the protruding portion 53a with a large amount of protrusion may block the through hole, and the knitted fabric 51 may not be formed into a desired lace pattern.

Further, in the raising process, the floating yarn 73 is scratched to separate or cut the fibers to form the fluff 53b, and the warp yarn 71 and the weft yarn 72 other than the floating yarn 73 may be scratched or cut. The warp 71
And, the weft yarn 72 may be broken, and the knitted fabric 51 may be unraveled, and the quality of the knitted lace 70 may deteriorate. When the fluff 53b is formed by knitting the floating yarn 73 in this manner, there is a problem that the knitted fabric 51 is likely to be frayed. Further, the fibers separated from the knitted fabric may be scattered by the raising process.

[0015] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a knitted lace with a patterned pattern, which is soft to the touch and has a clear patterned pattern, without using a floating thread for forming a raised fabric.

[0016]

According to the present invention, a plurality of wales in which a plurality of loop-shaped portions are continuous are formed substantially in parallel by a warp, and a second warp or a weft that is orthogonal to a first direction in which the wale extends. A knitted lace with a patterned pattern in which wales adjacent in the direction are connected to each other,
A base portion including a sparse portion in which an insertion yarn is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to each other in the first direction of a predetermined wale, and a yarn inserted into the plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to each other in the first direction of a predetermined wale And a handle portion including a dense portion in which a handle yarn is woven in a loop-shaped portion adjacent to a predetermined wale in the second direction, and the insertion yarn is a core yarn having elasticity. , A cover thread wound around the core thread, and the inserted thread,
A knitted lace with a patterned pattern, which is exposed partially on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace.

According to the present invention, the knitted fabric has a dense pattern portion and a sparse base portion, and by combining the handle portion and the base portion, contrast can be imparted to the knitted fabric due to the difference in the density of the yarns. A knitted lace having a patterned pattern can be formed.
Further, when the knitted yarn is knitted in the stretched state during knitting, the core yarn shrinks after knitting, the covering yarn separates from the core yarn, and the wound yarn is wound loosely with respect to the core yarn.

Since the inserted yarn is exposed partially on one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace, the loose portion of the covering yarn in the portion where the insertion yarn is exposed protrudes to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace. This loosened portion becomes a fluff that deformably projects to one side in the thickness direction, in other words, an annular raised fabric, and the knitted lace can obtain a raised fabric state. This can improve the feel of the knitted lace when touched. Further, since the inserted yarn is also woven into the base portion, it is possible to form naps also in the base portion, and it is possible to satisfactorily improve the feel on the entire one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace.

Further, since the inserted yarn shrinks in the first direction, it does not curve to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace and does not become dense in the first direction unlike the floating yarn of the prior art. . As a result, even if the inserted yarn is knitted in the base portion, the area of the yarn per unit area of the base portion can be reduced. Therefore, it is possible to increase the difference in the density of the threads between the pattern portion and the base portion, to make the contrast of the pattern pattern clear, and to form a clear pattern pattern.

Therefore, it is possible to have a distinct pattern pattern which is soft to the touch and does not have a floating thread for forming the raised hair.

According to the present invention, the base portion has a first base portion in which an insertion yarn is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to each other in the first direction of the predetermined wale, and the first base portion in the first direction of the predetermined wale. A second base portion in which a stretchable yarn is knitted into a plurality of adjacent loop-shaped portions, and the handle portion is a first wale of a predetermined wale.
A first handle part in which the insertion yarn is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to each other in the direction, and a handle yarn is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to the second direction in the predetermined wale; A plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to each other in the first direction of the elastic yarn is knitted, and a second handle part in which a pattern yarn is knitted into the loop-shaped portion of the predetermined wale adjacent to the second direction, The stretchable yarn has stretchability, is stretched by a stretch amount larger than the stretch amount of the inserted yarn stretched from a natural state, and is knitted by being knitted in a loop-shaped portion of a predetermined wale. It is characterized by

According to the present invention, the elastic yarn is woven into the second base portion and the second handle portion. The elastic yarn is stretched and knitted by a stretch amount larger than the stretch amount of the inserted yarn in which the inserted yarn is stretched and knitted.

In the natural state, the tension on the yarn is released. The extension amount is, for example, the length of the yarn portion in which the yarn portion per unit length in the natural state of the yarn is extended and extended.

After the knitting yarn and elastic yarn knitted in the stretched state are knitted, the inserted yarn and the elastic yarn are contracted, and the knitted lace is contracted by the inserted yarn and further contracted by the elastic yarn.

Specifically, the loop-shaped portions in which the elastic yarn is knitted are close to each other in the first direction, and the wale is contracted in the first direction. Further, since each wale is connected to the wale adjacent in the second direction, the other wale adjacent in the second direction of the shrinking wale also shrinks in the first direction. As the wale contracts in this way, the knitted lace contracts.

When the insertion yarn is knitted into the wale that is contracted by the stretchable yarn, the insertion yarn itself becomes the first yarn after knitting.
It shrinks more than it shrinks in the direction. As a result, the core yarn constituting the inserted yarn is further contracted, and the gap between the covering yarn and the core yarn is expanded.

As a result, the protruding amount of the covering yarn protruding toward one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace is increased, and the length of the fluff protruding toward one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace, and thus the length of the annular raised hair is increased. As a result, the knitted lace can have a further raised state, and the touch when the knitted lace is touched can be further improved. Further, by knitting the elastic yarn, it is possible to more surely realize a knitted lace having elasticity and obtain a fit feeling.

Even when the stretchable limit of the covering yarn is small and the tension when the inserted yarn is knitted in the stretched state cannot be increased, the stretchable yarn different from the inserted yarn is knitted in the large stretched state. As a result, the inserted yarn can be sufficiently contracted after knitting, the gap between the covering yarn and the core yarn can be made larger, and sufficient annular naps can be obtained.

The present invention is also characterized in that the coated yarn has hygroscopicity. According to the invention, the knitted lace comprises:
Fluffs having hygroscopicity can be formed on one side in the thickness direction, and hygroscopicity can be obtained on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace. For example, by providing one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace at the portion that comes into contact with the skin, it is possible to absorb sweat and prevent stuffiness.

Further, the present invention is characterized in that the thickness of the inserted yarn is not less than 0.5 times and not more than 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn.

According to the present invention, when the thickness of the inserted yarn exceeds 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn, the area of the yarn per unit area of the base portion becomes large, and the base portion and the handle portion are The difference in the density of the threads is reduced and the pattern cannot be made clear. Further, when the thickness of the inserted yarn is less than 0.5 times the thickness of the warp yarn, the ratio of the stretchable yarn exposed to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace is reduced in the base portion, and the feel of the knitting lace is reduced. I can't do well.

Therefore, the thickness of the inserted yarn is not less than 0.5 times and not more than 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn,
You can improve the texture and make the pattern clear.

Further, according to the present invention, a plurality of wales in which a plurality of loop-shaped portions are continuous are formed substantially in parallel by the warp, and the wales which are adjacent to each other in the second direction orthogonal to the first direction in which the wales extend are formed by the warp or weft. A method for producing a knitted lace with a patterned pattern in which are interconnected with each other, wherein an insertion yarn including a stretchable core yarn and a covering yarn wound around the core yarn is knitted in a looped portion in an extended state. The method for producing a knitted lace with a patterned pattern is characterized in that the inserted yarn is exposed partially on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace.

According to the present invention, when the knitted yarn is knitted in the stretched state during knitting, the core yarn shrinks after knitting, and the covering yarn is wound around the core yarn in a loose state. Since the inserted yarn is exposed partially on one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace, the loosened portion of the covering yarn becomes a fluff that deformably protrudes to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace, and the knitting race is in a raised state. Obtainable.

Therefore, it is possible to form a raised state in the knitting lace without separately performing a raising process after knitting, and it is possible to reduce the number of steps in manufacturing the knitting lace. In addition, it is possible to form the knitted lace by eliminating the fraying of the knitted fabric caused by the raising process. Further, since the raising process is not performed, it is possible to eliminate the scattering of fine fibers caused by the raising process.

The present invention also provides a stretchable yarn having elasticity.
It is characterized in that it is stretched from a natural state and is knitted into a loop-shaped portion by stretching with a stretching amount larger than that of the inserted yarn.

According to the present invention, the stretchable yarn is stretched by a stretch amount larger than the stretch amount of the insertion yarn and knitted into the plurality of loop-shaped portions. As a result, the inserted yarn and the elastic yarn are contracted after knitting, and the knitting lace is contracted by the contracting force of the inserted yarn and further contracted by the elastic yarn.

Since the stretchable yarn shrinks more than the inserted yarn, the wale in which the stretchable yarn is knitted shrinks as compared with the case where only the inserted yarn is knitted. Since each wale is connected to each other in the second direction, when one wale contracts, the wale adjacent to the wale in the second direction also contracts.

When the inserted yarn is knitted into the wale that is contracted by the stretchable yarn, the inserted yarn itself becomes the first yarn after knitting.
It shrinks more than it shrinks in the direction. As a result, the coated yarn is further separated from the core yarn and is wound in a further loosened state with respect to the core yarn.

As a result, the protruding amount of the covering yarn protruding toward one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace is increased, and the annular raised hair can be increased. The larger ring-shaped brushing can further improve the feel when touching the knitted lace. Further, by knitting the stretchable yarn, the stretchability of the knitted lace can be realized more reliably.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a knitting organization diagram showing an enlarged part of a knitting lace 1 which is an embodiment of the present invention. The knitted lace 1 includes a warp yarn 2, a weft yarn 3, an insertion yarn 4, an elastic yarn 5 and a handle yarn 10, and a knitted fabric is knitted. Further, the knitting lace 1 may be knitted with a floating thread (not shown) for forming a floating handle on the front side.

The warp yarn 2 is chain-stitched, that is, chain-knitted to form loop-shaped portions 6a and 6b. The loop-shaped portions 6a and 6b are connected to each other to form the wale 7. The wales 7 extend in the first direction C that is the lace knitting direction, and are formed side by side in the second direction W that is a direction orthogonal to the lace knitting direction.

More specifically, the knitted lace 1 is made up of warp yarns 2.
The knitting includes the first loop-shaped portion 6a and the second loop-shaped portion 6b. The first loop-shaped portions 6a and the second loop-shaped portions 6b are alternately formed and arranged in a plurality of rows in the first direction C. As shown in FIG. 1, the second loop-shaped portion 6b1 extends through the first loop-shaped portion 6a0 of the first direction front stage C1 from one side to the other side and extends to the first direction rear stage C2 to form the second loop-shaped portion 6b1. First stage on the same level as the portion 6b1
The loop-shaped portion 6a1 is inserted from the other side to the one side to
The second loop-shaped portion 6b1 of the first loop portion 6b1
It is connected to the first loop-shaped portion 6a2 of the second stage C2 in the direction. First
The loop-shaped portions 6a and the second loop-shaped portions 6b are alternately connected, and the wales 7 that are continuous in the first direction C are formed. Wale 7 knitted with warp 2 in this way
Is a chain stitch organization.

A multifilament having a fineness of the warp yarn 2 of, for example, 50 denier or less, particularly 40 denier or less is used. When the warp yarn 2 is thick, a good lace pattern cannot be formed, and it is preferable that the warp yarn 2 is thin in order to form a lace pattern. Therefore, the fineness of the warp 2 is such that the warp 2 is not cut when it is used as a knitted lace product, and the finest possible one is used. Further, it can be realized by various fibers such as nylon, rayon, polyester and polypropylene.

The weft thread 3 connects the wales 7 arranged in the second direction W, and is woven by inserting the second loop-shaped portions 6b of the two wales 7 adjacent to each other in the second direction W, respectively. Actually, the weft yarn 3 has a laterally swinging portion 3a extending from one wale to the other wale, and a braided portion 3b through which the second loop-shaped portion 6b is inserted. Two wales 7 that are lined up in the second direction W by the wefts 3 are connected to both ends of the lateral swing portion 3a, respectively.
Are connected.

Two lateral swing portions 3a arranged in the first direction C
In the space surrounded by the wales 7 arranged in the second direction and connected to the lateral swing portion 3a, there is provided a through hole 8 in which no yarn is arranged and which is inserted in the thickness direction of the knitted fabric. Side swing part 3
The shape of the through hole 8 is adjusted by selectively arranging b in the loop-shaped portion of the wale 7. As a result, the knitted lace 1 can form a lace pattern represented by the shape of the through holes 8.

For example, the weft 3 is 4 of one wale 7.
The two second loop-shaped portions 6b are respectively inserted and alternately knitted to extend in the first direction C, and are laterally swung to the adjacent wale 7 adjacent to the second direction W. Two
The loop-shaped portions 6b are respectively inserted and knitted alternately to extend in the first direction C, and are laterally swung again to be inserted and knitted through the second loop-shaped portions 6b of the original wale 7. A plurality of wefts 3 extending in this manner are knitted for each wale 7, whereby the wales 7 are connected. The weft 3 passes through the second loop-shaped portion 6b from the side where the first loop-shaped portion 6a and the second loop-shaped portion in the same direction in the first direction are connected, for example, as it goes toward the second-stage C2 in the first direction.

The fineness of the weft yarn 3 is the same as the warp yarn 2 so that the warp yarn 2 does not cut, and the finest possible yarn is used. For example, it can be realized by various fibers such as nylon, rayon, polyester and polypropylene. For example, as the weft yarn 3, multifilaments having a denier of 50 denier or less, particularly 40 denier or less are used.

The pattern thread 10 is a thread for forming a pattern pattern on the knitted fabric. The handle yarn 10 is knitted by passing through the predetermined second loop-shaped portions 6b of the two wales 7 arranged in the second direction W. The handle yarn 10 extends in a substantially S-shape and returns a plurality of times.
Specifically, the handle yarn 10 has an extended portion 10a extending in the second direction W and a folded-back portion 10b having both ends connected to the extended portion 10a and extending in a substantially U-shape, and the extended portion 10a and the folded-back portion 10b. Extend alternately. Folded part 1
0b inserts the two second loop-shaped portions 6b adjacent to each other in the first direction C together.

The pattern thread 10 is knitted in advance in a loop-like portion corresponding to a portion for providing a pattern pattern. In the handle portion in which the handle thread 10 is knitted, the through holes 8 are reduced by knitting the handle thread 10 and the thread is densely formed. The area where the pattern thread 10 is not knitted has a large through hole 8 and serves as a sparse base portion of the thread. Therefore, the handle thread 10
Is partially knitted into the wale 7 to form a region where the yarns are sparse and a region where the yarns are dense, and by combining these regions, the pattern represented by the difference in the density of the yarns. A pattern is formed. The fineness of the patterned yarn 10 is selected to be, for example, 30 denier or more and 1200 denier or less.

In the handle yarn 10, for example, a first loop-shaped portion 6a and a second loop-shaped portion 6b of the first-direction front stage C1 are connected to the first loop-shaped portion 6a as it goes toward the first-direction rear stage C2. From the portion, the second loop-shaped portion 6b in the same direction in the first direction is inserted into the first loop-shaped portion 6a.
The handle thread 10 may be plural.

The insertion yarn 4 includes a core yarn 11 having elasticity and a covering yarn 12 wound around the core yarn 11. The insertion thread 4 is
When knitting, it is knitted into the wales 7 in a stretched state and shrinks after knitting. The insertion thread 4 is formed by each second loop-shaped portion 6b of the wale 7.
Are alternately inserted and knitted, and extend in the first direction C. By knitting the insertion yarn 4 in the wale 7 in this way, the knitted fabric is contracted in the first direction C after knitting, and the knitted fabric can be made stretchable in the first direction C. The insertion yarn 4 is, for example, a portion 6 in which the first loop-shaped portion 6a1 and the second loop-shaped portion 6b0 of the first-direction front portion C1 are connected to the first loop-shaped portion 6a1 toward the rear portion C2 in the first direction.
From c1, the second loop-shaped portion 6b1 at the same stage in the first direction is inserted into the first loop-shaped portion 6a1. For example, the insertion yarns 4 are woven one by one in the wales 7 arranged in the second direction W.

The knitted lace 4 has a portion exposed on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace 1 after knitting. This Hen Race 1
One side in the thickness direction of is the back side of the knitted lace 1, that is, the side in contact with the skin, for example. Furthermore, the coated yarn 12 preferably has hygroscopicity. Knit Race 1
Has sweat absorbing property when used for underwear and can prevent stuffiness. Further, since the insertion thread 4 is formed along the wales 7, it does not block the through holes 8 and does not impair the aesthetic appearance of the lace pattern formed by the through holes 8.

The core yarn 11 of the insertion yarn 4 is, for example, a polyurethane elastic yarn, so-called spandex, and the covering yarn 12 is, for example, a spun yarn or a covering yarn which is a filament yarn, and a natural fiber such as cotton and silk. Or a synthetic fiber such as nylon and polyester. Further, it may be an ultrafine fiber called a microfiber.

The core yarn 11 used for the insertion yarn 4 can be stretched four times from the natural state, and the insertion yarn 4 is
It is stretched to a length of 1.5 times or more and 3.5 times or less the length in the natural state and knitted into the wales 7.

The elastic yarn 5 is a yarn having elasticity and, for example, polyurethane elastic yarn so-called spandex is used. The elastic yarn 5 is knitted in a stretched state during knitting,
Shrink after knitting. The elastic yarn 5 extends through the second loop-shaped portions 6b of the wales 7 alternately in the first direction C. Since the elastic yarn 5 is knitted in the wales 7 in this way, the knitted fabric is contracted in the first direction C after knitting, and the knitted fabric can be made more elastic in the first direction C.

The stretchable yarn 5 is, for example, from the portion where the first loop-shaped portion and the second loop-shaped portion of the first-direction front portion C1 are continuous with the first loop-shaped portion toward the rear portion C2 in the first direction. The second loop-shaped portion at the same stage in the first direction is inserted into the first loop-shaped portion. That is, the elastic yarn 5 is
The second loop-shaped portion is inserted in the same direction as the insertion thread 4. The elastic yarn 5 is inserted in the second loop-shaped portion in the direction opposite to the weft yarn 3.

The elastic yarn 5 can be stretched, for example, 6 times from the natural state, and is stretched to a length of 1.5 times or more and 5 times or less the length in the natural state and knitted into the wales 7. . Further, the fineness of the elastic yarn 5 is 70 in the natural state.
Selected above denier and below 280 denier.

The elastic yarn 5 is stretched from the natural state and is knitted into the loop-shaped portion by being stretched by a stretched amount larger than the stretched amount of the inserted yarn 4. The natural state is a state in which tension is released on the yarn. The extension amount is, for example, the length of the yarn portion in which the yarn portion per unit length in the natural state of the yarn is extended and extended. That is, the knitting is performed so that the expansion / contraction rate of the knitted expansion / contraction thread 5 is larger than the expansion / contraction rate of the insertion thread 4 after knitting. The inserted yarn 4 is further contracted by the elastic yarn 5 from the state in which the inserted yarn 4 is contracted by the tension applied during knitting.

For example, the elastic yarn 5 is knitted in a length that is 1.2 times or more and 3 times or less than the length of the insertion yarn 4 that is knitted in the stretched state. Specifically, the insert yarn 4 is supplied by 300 mm and the elastic yarn 5 is supplied by 200 mm per rack in which the knitting machine rotates 480 times. In addition, for example, 350 mm of the insertion thread 4 is supplied and 190 pieces of the expansion thread 5 per rack.
mm supply.

The knitting lace 1 has a handle portion in which the handle yarn 10 is woven and a base portion in which the handle yarn 10 is not woven. The base portion includes a first base portion in which the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to the predetermined wale 7 in the first direction C, and a plurality of adjacent wale 7 adjacent to the first direction C in the first direction C. The second base portion in which the elastic yarn 5 is knitted in the loop-shaped portion is included.

In the handle portion, the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in a plurality of loop-shaped portions adjacent to the predetermined wale 7 in the first direction C, and a plurality of loops adjacent to the predetermined wale 7 in the second direction W are formed. The first handle portion in which the handle yarn 10 is knitted into the loop-shaped portion and the elastic yarns 5 in the plurality of loop-like portions adjacent to the first direction C of the predetermined wale 7 are formed, and The pattern thread 1 is provided on the loop-shaped portion adjacent to the two directions W.
And a second handle portion in which 0 is woven.

The predetermined wales to be the base portion and the handle portion are selectively determined according to the pattern pattern formed on the knitting lace, and also depending on the elasticity and the feel required for the knitting lace. .

For example, the insertion thread 4 and the elastic thread 5 are
They are alternately arranged in the direction W and extend in the first direction C. The insertion yarn 4 and the elastic yarn 5 are knitted by inserting all the second loop-shaped portions forming the wale 7. The loop-shaped portion in which the pattern thread 10 is knitted is determined by the pattern pattern to be formed.

FIG. 2 is a view showing an enlarged photograph of the insertion thread 4, and FIG. 3 is an enlarged perspective view schematically showing the insertion thread 4. 2 (1) and 3 (1) show the insertion yarn 4 in a natural state, and FIGS. 2 (2) and 3 (2) show the insertion yarn 4 at the time of extension.
Indicates. The insertion yarn 4 is configured to include a core yarn 11 having elasticity and a covering yarn 12 that winds the outer periphery of the core yarn 11 in a coil shape. The covering yarn 12 is preferably thinner than the core yarn 11 and less elastic than the core yarn 11.

As shown in FIG. 3 (1), the covering yarn 12 is wound at a position separated from the outer peripheral surface of the core yarn 11 in the radial direction in a natural state, and the core yarn 11 and the covering yarn 12 are separated from each other. 11 is provided with a gap H in the radial direction. Further, the covering yarn 12 is
Portions of the insertion yarn 11 that are adjacent to each other in the axial direction are provided with a gap L in the axial direction. In the natural state, the insertion thread 4 is
The core yarn 11 is wound while the covering yarn 12 is loose,
Is configured to be deformable in the radial direction and the axial direction. The natural state is the state in which the yarn is not tensioned and is not in a stretched or contracted state.

The covering yarn 12 is less likely to expand and contract than the core yarn 11. Therefore, as the insertion yarn 4 is stretched, the core yarn 1
1 extends, and a covering yarn 12 that winds a core yarn 11
Circumference becomes smaller. As shown in FIG. 3 (2), the inserted yarn 12 is not covered with the cover yarn 1 after the cover yarn 12 comes into contact with the core yarn 11.
2 is stretched and extends up to the elastic limit of the covering yarn 12.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged schematic perspective view of the insertion yarn 4 knitted in the loop-shaped portion. In FIG. 4 (1), the elastic yarn 5 is not knitted in the loop-shaped portion. 4 (2) shows the insertion yarn 4 in a state where the elastic yarn 5 is knitted in the loop-shaped portion.

As shown in FIG. 4 (1), when the elastic yarn 5 is not knitted, the insertion yarn 4 shrinks after knitting and the insertion yarn 4
Shrinks as compared with the stretched state shown in FIG. At this time, the core yarn 11 contracts, the covering yarn 12 separates from the core yarn 11, and a gap H is generated between the outer peripheral surface of the core yarn 11 and the covering yarn 12. As a result, the covering yarn 12 is provided so as to be deformable in the radial direction and the axial direction of the core yarn 11, and the covering yarn 12 constitutes a so-called annular nap.

The insertion yarn 4 is woven and locked in the loop-shaped portion of the wale 7. The locked portion prevents the insertion thread 4 from recovering to the natural state. When the stretchability of the covering yarn 12 is low, the insertion yarn 4 cannot be knitted in a highly stretched state, and there is a possibility that it will not be sufficiently contracted after knitting. Therefore, the insertion thread 4 is
The natural state shown in (1) does not completely return to the state in which the core yarn 11 is stretched with a tension smaller than that at the time of knitting.

As shown in FIG. 4 (2), the stretchable yarn 5 is stretched by a stretching amount larger than the stretching amount of the insertion yarn 4 stretched from the natural state and knitted, and the loop-shaped portion of the predetermined wale 7 is stretched. By being knitted in the first direction C
The elastic yarn 5 shrinks more. As a result, the knitting lace 1 contracts more than when only the insertion yarn 4 is knitted.

As compared with the case where only the insertion yarn 4 is knitted, the stretchable yarn 5 brings the loop-shaped portion of the wale 7 closer, and the insertion yarn 5 locked in the loop-shaped portion is further contracted. As a result, the insertion yarn 4 shrinks more than when only the insertion yarn 5 is knitted. Therefore, the core yarn 11 is further contracted, the covering yarn 12 is further separated from the core yarn 11, and the distance H between the outer peripheral surface of the core yarn 11 and the covering yarn 12 is increased. As a result, the covered yarn 12 has a large deformable portion,
Ring-shaped nap becomes large.

FIG. 5 is a sectional view showing the knitted lace cut along the line VV of FIG. The inserted yarn 4 is knitted in the wales 7 in the stretched state, and after the knitting, the covering yarn 12 is formed in a loosened state with respect to the core yarn 11. Since the insertion yarn 4 is exposed on one side F of the knitting lace 1 in the thickness direction, the covering yarn 12 in the loose state is separated from the core yarn 11 and protrudes on one side F of the knitting lace 1 in the thickness direction. As a result, the covering yarn 12 becomes a plurality of deformable thin fibers that project in the thickness direction F, that is, fluff.

By thus knitting the insertion yarn 4 into the knitting lace 1, the covering yarn 12 becomes fluffy in the thickness direction F, and the knitting lace 1 is formed with a so-called annular nap and a napped state is obtained. You can

As described above, according to the knitting lace 1 of the embodiment of the present invention, the insertion yarn 4 is provided on one side in the thickness direction without using the floating yarn for forming the raised hair as in the conventional technique. A raised state can be obtained. Hen Race 1
When touched from one side in the thickness direction, the fluff is contacted with the fluff and the fluff is deformed, so that the touch can be improved. FIG. 6 is a view showing an enlarged photograph of one surface of the knitting lace 1, FIG. 6 (1) shows a handle portion, and FIG. 6 (2) shows a base portion. The insertion yarn 4 is provided on the one wale bypass and is knitted on both the base portion and the handle portion. Therefore, the area of the yarn per unit area is small, and it is possible to form the nap even in the base portion where the touch will be reduced,
It is possible to satisfactorily improve the touch over the entire one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace 1.

Since the insertion yarn 4 is contracted in the first direction C, it is not greatly curved to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace 1 and is not dense in the first direction C. As a result, even if the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in the base portion for forming the pattern, the area of the yarn per unit area of the base portion can be reduced. Therefore, even if the insertion yarn 4 is knitted into both the handle portion and the base portion, the through hole of the base portion is formed in a sufficient size without being blocked. That is, it is possible to form a clear pattern by making the contrast of the pattern clear by increasing the sparse / dense density of the thread between the pattern and the base without impairing the see-through feeling of the base. it can. Further, since the deformation of the covering yarn 12 is restricted by the core yarn 11, even if the covering yarn 12 is deformed, the shape of the through hole can be maintained without changing the shape of the through hole, and a desired lace pattern can be maintained. it can.

Further, since the covering yarn 12 has hygroscopicity, it is possible to form hygroscopic naps, and the knitted lace 1 can improve hygroscopicity in addition to the feel on the one side in the thickness direction. Accordingly, when the knitted lace 1 is provided as underwear, it is possible to absorb sweat and prevent stuffiness between the skin and the knitted lace.

The fineness of the insertion yarn 4 including the covering yarn 12 and the core yarn 11 is selected to be 140 denier or more and 560 denier or less. The fineness of the coated yarn 12 is selected to be 30 denier or more and 300 denier or less. By setting the fineness of the covering yarn 12 in the above-mentioned range, it is possible to form fluff having a good touch.

Further, the thickness of the insertion yarn 4 is set to be not less than 0.5 times and not more than 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn 2. Insert thread 4
If the thickness of the yarn exceeds 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn 2, the area of the yarn per unit area of the base portion becomes large, and the difference in the density of the yarn between the base portion and the handle portion becomes small and the pattern pattern is formed. I can't make it clear. Further, when the thickness of the insertion yarn 4 is less than one time the thickness of the warp yarn 2, the ratio of the insertion yarn 4 exposed to one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace 1 in the base portion is small, and I can't feel good.
Therefore, when the thickness of the insertion yarn 4 is not less than 1 time and not more than 25 times the thickness of the warp yarn 2, it is possible to improve the touch and to make the pattern pattern clear.

Further, the elasticity of the knitted lace 1 can be improved by knitting the insertion yarn 4 in the wale 7. As a result, the product using the knitting lace 1 can freely expand and contract with respect to unevenness, has elasticity, and can obtain a fit and prevent bending of the knitting lace 1.

Further, the elastic yarn 5 is knitted in a state in which the amount of expansion and contraction is larger than that of the inserted yarn 4, so that the elastic yarn 5 has greater elasticity than the case where only the inserted yarn 4 is knitted. As a result, a better fit can be obtained, and the bending of the knitting lace 1 can be prevented more reliably.

Further, the expansion and contraction amount of the insertion yarn 4 is limited by the covering yarn 12, whereas the expansion and contraction amount of the expansion and contraction yarn 5 is wide so that the expansion and contraction amount can be easily changed. The knitted lace 1 having different stretchability can be easily formed.

Further, the elastic yarns 5 are formed in the loop-shaped portions arranged in the second direction W with respect to the plurality of loop-shaped portions in which the insertion yarn 4 is knitted.
Are woven, and the insertion thread 4 and the elastic thread 5 are alternately arranged in the second
Since they are knitted side by side in the direction, the insert yarn 4 can be reliably contracted by the elastic yarn 5, and the annular raised of the insert yarn 4 can be increased.

The insertion yarn 4 is alternately inserted through the second loop-shaped portions 6b and is knitted. As a result, the insertion thread 4 is
Compared to the case where the second loop-shaped portion 6b is partially inserted at a distance and knitted, there are more locking points,
It is prevented from slipping or falling off due to external force. Further, even if the insertion yarn 4 breaks, the insertion yarn 4 whose one end is cut can be locked with a short length.

FIG. 7 is a sectional view showing a knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 for manufacturing the knitting lace 1 of the present embodiment. The knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 includes a knitting unit 31 and a winding unit 32. Warp 2, weft 3, insertion yarn 4, elastic yarn 5,
The handle thread 10 and the floating thread 17 are supplied to the knitting section 31, and the knitting lace 1 is knitted by the knitting section 31. The knitted lace 1 that has been knitted is wound by the winding section 32.
Further, the knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 has two stands 33a, 33b and four beams 34a, so as to supply the yarns 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 17 to the plurality of reeds arranged in the knitting section 31. 34b, 34c, 34d are arranged. The knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 has a floating yarn stand 33a to which the floating yarn bobbin 35 is hung, and a handle yarn stand 33b to which the handle yarn bobbin 36 is hung. The float yarn tissue reed and the handle reed Supply the yarn to.

The knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 has a warp beam 34a and a weft beam 34b around which the warp yarn 2 and the weft yarn 3 are wound, and adjusts the tension of the yarn and supplies it to each reed. Further, the knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 is provided with an insertion yarn beam 34c and a stretching yarn beam 34d for knitting the stretchable insertion yarn 4 and the stretching yarn 5, and further is provided with a feed roller and an automatic control device. , Apply appropriate tension to feed the yarn. Thus, each bobbin and each beam supply each yarn to each reed of the knitting part 31.

The knitting lace 1 formed by the knitting section 31 has the winding section 3 formed below the knitting section 31.
It is wound up by 2. At this time, by knitting the insertion yarn 4 described above, it is possible to form the knitting lace 1 in which a raised state is formed on one side in the thickness direction without newly providing a raising device.

FIG. 8 is an enlarged side view showing the knitting section 31. The knitting part 31 has a plurality of reeds, and has elastic reeds 41, 42, a handle yarn reed 43, a floating yarn reed 48, a jacquard dropper bar 44, and ground reeds 45, 46. The warp 2 is passed through the ground reeds 45 and 46, and the weft 3
Are threaded through the jacquard dropper bar 44, and the insertion thread 4 and the elastic thread 5 are respectively attached to the elastic reeds 4
1 and 42 are threaded. Further, the handle yarn 10 is a handle yarn reed 43.
Then, the floating yarn 17 is threaded on the floating yarn reed 48. Each reed moves toward the position where the needle captures the thread.
The elastic reeds 4 for the inserted yarn are arranged in a radial pattern and extend from the front side to the rear side of the needle, in other words, from the upstream side to the downstream side in the direction in which the needle captures each yarn.
1, elastic reed 42 for elastic yarn 5, reed 4 for handle yarn
3, jacquard dropper bar 44, ground reeds 45, 46,
The floating yarn reeds 48 are arranged in this order.

Each reed performs, in synchronization with the vertical movement of the needle, overlapping (movement of stitches) for moving the front of the needle, that is, the hook forming side and underlap (inserting movement) for moving the rear of the needle. . In addition to these wrapping movements, a so-called swing (swinging movement) is performed in which the needles move in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which a plurality of needles are arranged, that is, the needle row, and a guide attached to each reed passes between the needle rows. As a result, each yarn is given a yarn guiding action to an accurate stitch forming position. Further, the float yarn 17 supplied from the float yarn reed 48 to the needle can be moved to a position where the stitches are not formed by the fall plate 47, whereby a float handle can be formed on the knitted fabric.

The knitting portion 31 has a needle bar 38 (hereinafter referred to as a needle) having a needle 39, a stitch comb bar 35, a trick plate 36 and a tong 37.
Equipped with. After each yarn guided from each reed to the needle is knitted as a knitted fabric by the operation of each reed and the needle, the knitted fabric formed by the knitting assisting action of the stitch comb passes through the trick plate 36 and smoothly. Being rolled up.

The elastic reed 4 for the insertion yarn is located at the rear of the knitting machine (left side in FIG. 8) toward the front in the needle advancing direction.
Since the yarns 1 are arranged, the insertion yarn 4 can be knitted on one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace, whereby the insertion yarn 4 can be partially exposed on one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace 1. By exposing the insertion yarn 4, the covering yarn 12 forms a fluff protruding to one side in the thickness direction, and a raised state can be obtained.

Further, since the floating yarn reed 48 is arranged on the front side of the knitting machine (on the right side in FIG. 8) toward the rear of the needle advancing direction, the floating yarn 17 can be knitted on the other side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace. As a result, a floating handle can be formed by the floating yarn 17 on the other side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace.

Therefore, by setting one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace 1 to be the back side and the other side in the thickness direction to be the front side, a raised state is obtained by the insertion yarn 4 on the back side of the knitting lace 1, and the front side of the knitting lace 1 is obtained. A floating handle can be formed by the floating thread 17. For example, when it is used for underwear, it gets a raised state on the back side that touches the skin,
You can get a clear pattern with good touch. Further, the floating thread 17 can form a floating pattern on the front side, that is, a three-dimensional pattern protruding in the thickness direction.

FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view showing a chain stitch knitting cycle, in which the knitting operation of the loop 40 of the warp 2 proceeds in the order of FIGS. 9 (1) to 9 (5). The needle 39 for knitting each thread has a hook portion 39 that hooks each thread at the tip.
a is formed, and the needle stem 39b is formed on the proximal end side. Further, a tongue 37 is formed so as to close the opening formed in the needle 39 by the hook portion 39a. The needle 39 and the tongue 37 can be raised and lowered toward each reed.

The knitting cycle of the chain stitch is as shown in FIG. 9 (1).
The loop 40 of the warp yarn 2 is locked by a, and the tongue 37 closes the opening of the hook portion 39a of the needle 39. Next, as shown in FIG. 9 (2), the needle 39 rises toward the ground reed 45, and the loop 40 of the warp 2 comes out of the hook portion 39a and moves to the needle trunk 39b. Further, the ground reed 45 moves (underlaps) behind the needle 39 to the stitch forming position.

Next, as shown in FIG. 9 (3), the ground reed 45 moves toward the front of the needle 39 (backswing).
Then, the front portion of the needle 39 is moved (overlapped) so as to be caught by the hook portion 39a of the needle 39.

Next, as shown in FIG. 9 (4), the ground reed 45 moves so as to wind the needle 39 (front swing), and the loop 49 of the new warp yarn 2 is locked to the hook portion 39a. Further, the tongue 37 rises toward the hook portion 39a and closes the opening of the hook portion 39a. At this time, the needle 39 has an old loop 40 formed on the needle stem 39b and a new loop 49 with which the hook portion 39a is locked.
And are formed.

Next, as shown in FIG. 9 (5), the needle 3
9 and the tongs 37 descend at the same time, the old loop 49 moves to the trick plate 36 side, the new loop 40 is locked by the hook portion 39a of the needle 39, and the operation of FIG. 9 (1) is performed again. . By repeating such a cycle, a chain stitch is formed. At this time, the knitted fabric can be knitted by simultaneously knitting other yarns.

The needle 39 has a second loop-shaped portion 6b.
Then, the floating yarn 17, the handle yarn 3, the elastic yarn 5, and the insertion yarn 4 are locked in this order, so that the insertion yarn 4 is shifted toward one side in the thickness direction.
Can be woven in to form a portion where the insertion yarn 4 is exposed so as to face one side in the thickness direction. In addition, a floating handle can be formed by knitting the floating yarn 17 on the other side in the thickness direction.

As described above, the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in the wale 7 in the stretched state, and the needle 39 moves the second loop-shaped portion 6b.
In the order in which the yarns are locked by, the insertion yarns 4 can be caught in the last order or in an order close to the last, so that a portion where the insertion threads 4 are exposed from one side in the thickness direction of the knitting lace can be formed. It is possible to form fluff protruding from one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace. Therefore, it is possible to form a raised state in the knitting lace without performing a raising process after knitting, and it is possible to reduce the number of steps in manufacturing the knitting lace. Further, since the raising process unlike the conventional technique is not performed, it is possible to eliminate the fray of the knitting race caused by the raising process and form the knitting race. Further, it is possible to eliminate the scattering of fine fibers caused by the raising process.

FIG. 10 is a knitting organization diagram showing a part of a knitting lace 90 according to another embodiment of the present invention with a part thereof omitted. The knitting race 90 is the same as the knitting race 1 shown in FIG. 1 except that the weft yarn 3 and the elastic yarn 5 are not provided and the knitting of the warp yarn 2 and the insertion yarn 4 is different from the knitting race 1 of FIG. The same components as those of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted.

On the fourth course C4, a third needle-to-needle L3 backswing is performed, and an overlapping front swing is performed by passing through the second needle-to-needle L2. In the fifth course C4, the same operation as that of the third course C3 is performed, and in the sixth course C6, the same operation as that of the fourth course C4 is performed.

In the seventh course C7, the second needle-to-needle distance L2 makes an O-back swing, overlaps, and the front needle swing passes through the third needle-to-needle distance L3. In the eighth course C8, the second needle gap L2 is underlapped, the second needle gap L2 is backswing, and the second needle gap L2 is overlapped and the front swing is passed through the first needle gap L1. Next, the same operation as the first course C1 is repeated. By repeating the operations performed by the ground reed 45 in the first to eighth courses in this manner, the warp 2 is formed with a plurality of loops and a swinging portion that moves in the second direction W is formed. .

As shown in FIG. 11 (2), the elastic reed 41 for the inserted yarn makes a backswing and a front swing between the second needles L2 in the first course C1. Next, in the second course C2, the backswing and the front swing are performed while the underlap is performed up to the first needle gap L1 and the first needle gap L1 is performed. On the third course C3, the backswing and the front swing are performed underlap between the second needle gaps L2 and between the second needle gaps L2. Then on the fourth course C4, the second
The course C2 is operated. In this way, the operations performed in the first and second courses are repeated, and the warp 2
The insertion yarn 4 is knitted in the loop formed in the warp yarn 2 by being performed at the same time as the knitting. Further, the pattern yarn 10 and the floating yarn 17 are knitted in the loop of the warp yarn 2.

As described above, according to the knitting lace 90 of another embodiment of the present invention, the same effect as that of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1 can be obtained without using the weft thread 3. Further, it is possible to prevent the knitted fabric from being frayed due to the cutting of the warp.

FIG. 12 is a knitting organization chart showing a part of a knitting lace 100 according to still another embodiment of the present invention. The knitting lace 100 differs from the knitting lace 1 of FIG. 1 in the knitting of the insertion yarn 4, and the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in each wale. The elastic yarn 5 is not woven into the knitting lace 100. Other configurations are the same as those of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1, and the description of the same configurations is omitted and the same reference numerals are given.

According to the knitting lace 100 of this embodiment,
It is possible to form an annular nap that protrudes to one side in the thickness direction, and it is possible to obtain the same effect as that of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. In addition, since the insertion yarn 4 is knitted in all the wales 7, compared to the case where the insertion yarn 4 is knitted to skip one or more wales 7 in the second direction, an annular raised fabric per unit area of the knitting lace is formed. Can be increased, and the touch can be further increased.

FIG. 13 is a knitting organization diagram showing a part of a knitting lace 80 according to still another embodiment of the present invention. The knitting lace 80 differs from the knitting lace 1 in FIG. 1 in that the knitting of the inserted yarn is different and the elastic yarn 5 is not knitted. Other configurations are similar to those of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. The same components as those of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description thereof will be omitted.

The insertion yarn 81 knitted into the knitting lace 80 is
It extends in the first direction C and is knitted by inserting it through a predetermined second loop-shaped portion 6b. The insertion thread 81 has a free portion 81a that extends in the first direction C without passing through the plurality of second loop-shaped portions 6b.
And a woven portion 81b which is woven through the second loop-shaped portion 6b.

In the insertion thread 81, loose portions 81a and braided portions 81b are alternately arranged. For example, the free portion 81a
Passes through one first loop-shaped portion 6a. Therefore, the insertion thread 81 is woven by inserting every other second loop-shaped portion 6b. Further, by knitting the insertion yarn 81, which is composed of the core yarn 11 and the covering yarn 12 covering the core yarn 11, in the wale in the stretched state, it is possible to obtain substantially the same effect as that of the knitting lace 1 described above.

As described above, according to the knitting lace 80 of still another embodiment of the present invention, the same effect as that of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1 can be obtained. Furthermore, the free portion 81a
Is not knitted into the warp yarn 2, and the exposed portion where the insertion yarn 81 is exposed on one side in the thickness direction can be increased. As a result, it is possible to increase the portion where the covering yarn 12 projects to one side in the thickness direction, and it is possible to further improve the touch.

FIG. 14 is a knitting organization chart showing a part of a knitting lace 110 according to still another embodiment of the present invention. The knitting lace 110 differs from the knitting lace 1 in FIG. 1 in that the knitting of the insertion yarn 4 and the elastic yarn 5 is different, and the insertion yarn 4 and the elastic yarn 5 are different.
Is included in all wales 7. Other configurations are the same as those of the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG. 1, and the description of the same configurations is omitted and the same reference numerals are given.

In the knit lace 110, both the insertion yarn 4 and the stretchable yarn 5 are knitted in one wale 7. The insertion yarn 4 and the elastic yarn 5 are knitted in all the loop-shaped portions of each wale 7. As the insertion yarn 4 advances toward the rearward C2 in the first direction, from the portion where the first loop-shaped portion and the second loop-shaped portion in the same direction in the first direction continue to the second loop-shaped portion. The second loop-shaped portion at the same stage in the second direction is inserted therethrough.

For example, as the stretchable yarn 5 moves toward the second stage C2 in the first direction, from the portion where the first loop-shaped portion and the second loop-shaped portion 6 in the first direction upstream are connected to the first loop-shaped portion, C1 in the first direction with respect to one loop-shaped portion
The second loop-shaped portion is inserted.

That is, the elastic yarn 5 is woven into the second loop-shaped portion from the opposite side to the insertion yarn 4 which is inserted through the same second loop-shaped portion. The knitting lace 110 can obtain the same effect as the knitting lace 1 shown in FIG.

The above description is merely an example of the present embodiment, and the configuration may be changed within the scope of the invention. For example, by using a yarn having a hygroscopic property such as a cotton yarn as the covering yarn 12, it is possible to form a nap having a hygroscopic property on the surface of the knitted lace which is in contact with the skin, in addition to being soft to the touch. Also, microfibers, which are ultrafine fibers, may be used. Further, the twisting degree of such a covered yarn may be changed. Further, the knitting lace structure shown in the embodiment is an example, and how to hang each yarn,
You may change the tension balance. Further, the knitting lace of the present invention may be manufactured by an apparatus different from the knitting lace manufacturing apparatus 30 shown in FIG.

[0119]

According to the present invention described in claim 1, fluff can be formed on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace, and the touch can be improved. In addition, since the amount of the yarn forming the fluff in the first direction does not become large, the difference in the density of the yarn between the base portion and the handle portion can be made clear, and the pattern can be clearly shown.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, the amount of protrusion of the fluff formed on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace can be increased. This can further improve the touch. Further, the stretchability of the knitted lace in the first direction can be more surely provided.

According to the third aspect of the present invention, the touch can be improved and the fluff can be made hygroscopic.

According to the present invention of claim 4, the thickness of the inserted thread is determined to be 0.5 times or more and 25 times or less the thickness of the warp thread, so that the touch is good and the pattern is clear. The knitted lace can be formed well.

Further, according to the present invention of claim 5, a knitted lace in which naps are formed can be manufactured without the need for nap raising, so that the number of steps can be reduced and the production cost can be reduced. . Further, since the raised hair can be formed only by knitting the inserted yarn into the wales, it is not necessary to remodel the manufacturing apparatus to a large extent, and the conventional knitted lace manufacturing apparatus can be used to manufacture the knitted lace. Further, since the raising process is not performed, the caught fibers can be prevented from scattering.

According to the sixth aspect of the present invention, the protruding amount of the fluff formed on one side in the thickness direction of the knitted lace can be increased. This can further improve the touch. Further, the stretchability of the knitted lace in the first direction can be more surely provided.
