Description

  The present invention relates to a sock and a manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly, to a sock and a method of manufacturing the sock with a relaxed margin so as not to tighten a heel or a toe.

  As shown in FIG. 5, for example, if the size length (100) is 25.5 cm, the sock width (101) is determined to be 8.8 cm. Therefore, if a sock with a large sole width (101) is selected, the size length (100) becomes long. However, in the human foot, the foot bone at the base of the thumb and the five fingers spread sideways. However, the toe (102) of the sock is reduced in an arc shape from the sole width (101). For this reason, there are complaints that the toes (102) are cramped when wearing socks, but no countermeasure has been taken for this. In particular, socks with a wide toe and heel and a wide, easy-to-wear sock are desired by people with solid feet, women with O-legs, and sports players.

  The knitting of the heel part and the toe part forms a bag-like knitted fabric on one side of the tubular knitting, and the long bat needle (104) on the half circumference of the cylinder (103) in FIG. The lifting and knitting range of the cylinder (103) in accordance with FIGS. 8 [1], [2] and [3] with the short half butt needle (106) which is raised by the raising switch cam (105) and the remaining half circumference 9, the heel portion and the toe portion are knitted while reducing or increasing the number of eyes by the needle raising picker (108) in FIG. 9 and the needle lowering dropper (109) in FIG.

  The bag portions in FIG. 5 are the heel portion (110) and the toe portion (102), and the line of the boundary where the stitches are reduced and increased by the needle raising picker (108) in FIG. 9 and the needle lowering dropper (109) in FIG. 5 are the gore line (111) and the toe gore line (112) of FIG. 5, which are usually formed in a straight line as shown in FIG. 5, and the number of eyes is the number of raising and lowering of one needle.

  During the knitting of the buttocks and toes, the rotation of the cylinder causes the clutch (116) of the main shaft (115) via the clutch fork (114) by the clutch drum cam (113) in FIG. It moves to the left and is switched from forward rotation to forward / reverse reciprocating rotation (107). At this time, as shown in FIG. 7, the long switch needle (104) is raised to the non-knitting level by the raising switch cam (105). This is because the lift switch cam (105) passes the short butt needle (106) through the cylinder (103) surface as shown in FIG. This is because it is raised to the upper surface level.

  In [1] of FIG. 8, first, all the short bat and knee doll (106) are knitted, but the short bat needle (106) is alternately left and right by a needle raising picker in accordance with the forward and reverse reciprocal rotation (107) of the cylinder. Then, the level is raised to the same level as that of the long bat needle (104), the range of knitting by the short bat needle (106) is narrowed to reduce the mesh, and the state changes to the state [2] in FIG. Then, from the state [2] in FIG. 8, the needle lowering is applied to widen the knitting range again to increase the stitches, and the state of [3] in FIG. 8 is reached to finish the knitting of the buttocks and toes. After the knitting of the buttocks and toes, the cylinder returns to the original normal rotation by the action of the clutch.

  The needle picker picks up the needle at the knitting level to the upper non-knitting level for each rotation during both forward and backward reciprocating rotations of the cylinder, and serves to reduce the number of stitches. As shown in FIG. 9, the needle raising picker (108) enters the upper recess of the right and left mountain and is pushed by the first needle 106, so that the needle raising picker (108) itself has one needle bat on its hook. And slide down the slope of the cam to the upper level of the center cam.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 9, during the forward and reverse reciprocating rotation of the cylinder, the needle lowering is performed by lowering two needles at rest level for each rotation, and lowering to the knitting level by the dropper (109). Play a role in increasing eyes.

  In order to prevent the needle from being knitted in the needle raising, that is, reducing the stitches, the needle picker picker picks up one needle for each needle and raises it to a resting level to reduce the number of needles. As a result, the needles are lowered to the knitting level for each two needles while the needles are lowered to the suspending level for one.

  Next, FIG. 12 is a design diagram of a heel part of a conventional sock. The horizontal axis is the number of stitches per course, which is 60 in this example. The vertical axis represents the knitting course, and x represents the stitch. Of the three right columns, the leftmost column (117) indicates whether the knitting machine is normal rotation or reverse rotation, the course of Δ indicates normal rotation, and the course of ▼ indicates reverse rotation. The middle column (118) indicates the operating state of the needle raising pin 113, where ◯ indicates the operation and − indicates the pause. The rightmost column (119) shows the operating state of the needle lowering 101, the circle indicates the operation, and the-indicates the pause.

  The design drawing of FIG. 12 corresponds to the sock of FIG. a to b are normal knitting before entering the heel, and the needle raising pin 113 and the needle lowering needle 101 are rested by the whole circumference forward rotation. “b” to “c” indicate a mesh reducing portion that has entered the forward / reverse reciprocal rotation of a half circumference and has actuated the needle raising pin 113, and “c” is a gore line. “c” to “d” indicate a mesh increasing portion in which the needle up picker and the needle down dropper are actuated while continuing the reciprocating forward / reverse reciprocation of half a circle. Therefore, in the conventional sock heel, the number of courses from b to c and the number of courses from c to d are the same, and the design drawing shows a regular outline.

  FIG. 13 is a design diagram of a conventional sock toe. Similar to FIG. 12, the horizontal axis represents the number of stitches per course, which is 60 in this example. The vertical axis represents the knitting course, and x represents the stitch. Of the three right columns, the leftmost column (117) indicates whether the knitting machine is normal rotation or reverse rotation, the course of Δ indicates normal rotation, and the course of ▼ indicates reverse rotation. The middle column (118) indicates the operating state of the needle raising picker, ◯ indicates the operation, and-indicates the pause. The rightmost column (119) indicates the operating state of the needle lowering dropper, where ◯ indicates the operation and − indicates the pause.

  The design drawing of FIG. 13 also corresponds to the sock of FIG. From e to g is a normal knitting before entering the toe, and the needle raising picker and the needle lowering dropper are at rest by the full rotation of the entire circumference. “g” to “h” indicate a toe-toe reduction portion that has entered a forward / reverse reciprocating rotation of a half circle and actuated with a needle raising picker, and h is a toe gore line. “h” to “i” indicate a toe eye increasing portion in which the needle up picker and the needle down dropper are actuated by continuing the reciprocating forward / reverse reciprocation of half a circle. Therefore, the toes of a conventional sock have the same number of courses from g to h and courses from h to i, and the design drawing shows a regular outline.

  An example of putting heels to allow socks in the socks is Gusset Tow's prior art with heels on seamless toes. However, with this gusset, the appropriate number of courses is reduced by first raising the needle, then the number of stitches reduced at once is lowered to the knitting course and returned to the knitting course, and the number of stitches is increased again by the appropriate course. To make a gusset.

In addition, since the toe of the toe is thicker than the other fingers, the toe of the sock is matched with this shape to form a butt portion that is swollen on the thumb side, and is biased toward the thumb side. Socks are also proposed.

Further, Patent Document 2 is disclosed as a sock with a margin around the heel. Patent Document 2 describes a slight increase from a band-like knitting portion to a double-triangular knitting portion between a double knitting portion of a heel (a reduction of stitches by a needle raising picker and a needle lowering dropper and a portion of increasing eyes). Part. The belt-like knitted portion and the slight portion are obtained by alternately knitting the entire circumference course and the half circumference course, thereby providing a margin around the heel.

Furthermore, since the conventional heel and toe were knitted into a bag shape, the sock was slid back and forth during knitting, and socks that had been knitted by full-rotation motion have been proposed because efficiency has been reduced. . In Patent Document 3, a plurality of short course groups are inserted between one round course and curved with a bulge, and in Patent Document 4, the width of the course shorter than the one round course is sequentially narrowed, and then the width is increased again. The course ends are crossed with each other and curved with a bulge, and both ends of the short course group are cut.

  In view of the above circumstances, the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the toe portion of the toe portion on the instep side is loosened, and the sock has a margin in the heel portion and the manufacturing portion thereof. It is an object to provide a method.

  In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, in a sock having a heel portion and a toe portion, the heel portion is formed by knitting a crease-reducing portion into a stitch having more crease portions than the crease portion, and the heel gore line therebetween is curved. On the other hand, the toe portion is knitted into a stitch having more toe eye increase portions than the toe eye reduction portion, and constitutes a sock in which the toe gore line between them is formed in a curved shape.

  Further, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a sock having a heel part and a toe part knitted, wherein the heel part is knitted into a knitting course having more heel needle raising parts than heel needle lowering parts, and the heel gore line therebetween is curved. On the other hand, the toe portion is knitted into a knitting course having more toe needle lowering portions than the toe needle raising portion, and the toe gore line between them is formed in a curved shape to constitute a sock manufacturing method. .

  In the sock of the present invention, the instep side at the top of the toe is widened, so that the fingertip does not feel cramped, and a relaxed and free feeling can be secured on the toe, making the sock easy to wear.

  In the sock of the present invention, since the upper part of the heel is also widened, the heel does not attract the heel and becomes a comfortable sock that is deep and comfortable on the side of the foot.

  In the sock of the present invention, the tip portion of the heel and the toe has a few course needle lowering picker in a normal state, so that the durability of the gore line is improved.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a plan view of a sock for women according to the present invention. The sock 1 is finished by knitting from the mouth rubber part 2, knitting the toe part 6 from the heel part 4 through the body part 3, and stitching 7. The heel part 4 includes a crease reducing part 4a and a crease increasing part 4b, and a crease gore line 8a is formed therebetween. In the case of the present invention, the crease gore line 8a is formed in a curved shape like a J-shape, and the crease reducing portion 4a has more stitches than the crease increasing portion 4b.

  The toe portion 6 includes a toe eye reduction portion 6a and a toe eye increase portion 6b, and a toe gore line 8b is formed therebetween. In the case of the present invention, the toe gore line 8b is formed in a curved shape like a C-shape, and is knitted into a stitch having more toe eye increasing portions 6b than the toe eye reducing portion 6a. Further, the high heel knitting 9 is put in the knitted fabric immediately before the toe-eye reduction portion 6a. The high-heeled knitting 9 is a knitted knitted fabric with a margin that starts a forward and reverse reciprocating rotation from a knitting range that is less than a half of the cylinder, and returns the knitting range to half a lap by applying a dropper together with a raising picker for each course. That is, the toe-eye reduction part 6a is reduced accordingly.

  FIG. 2 is a plan view of a men's sock according to the present invention. The sock of this embodiment is knitted using a computer automatic sock knitting machine R200 manufactured by Nagata Seiki Co., Ltd., using 120 needles, 24 gauges, and 4 cylinder diameters. As the knitting yarn, a double yarn of 32 count double yarn made of a blended yarn of 50% cotton and 50% acrylic fiber was used as the surface yarn. The back yarn was 30 / 75th Cellosa (trademark) purchased from Orion Sangyo Co., Ltd. and used. And rubber thread purchased ST6600 from Maruichi Sangyo Co., Ltd. and used it. The above is an example, and the types and counts of machines and knitting yarns are not limited thereto.

  FIG. 3 is a design diagram of a heel portion of the sock, and FIG. 4 is a design diagram of a toe portion of the sock. The horizontal axis in FIGS. 3 and 4 is the number of stitches per course, which is 60 in this embodiment. The vertical axis represents the knitting course, and x represents the stitch. Among the three right columns, the leftmost column 20 indicates whether the knitting machine is normal rotation or reverse rotation, the course of Δ indicates normal rotation, and the course of ▼ indicates reverse rotation. The middle column 21 indicates the operating state of the needle raising picker, where ◯ indicates an operation and − indicates a pause. The rightmost column 22 indicates the operating state of the needle lowering dropper, where ◯ indicates the operation and − indicates the pause.

  A to B are ordinary knittings before entering the buttocks, and the needle raising picker and the needle lowering dropper are stopped by the full rotation of the entire circumference. The sock 11 has a heel 14 between B and D, and B to C indicate a heel needle raising portion which is a heel reduction portion 14 that has entered a forward and reverse reciprocating rotation of a half circumference and has actuated a needle raising picker. Is the Gore Line 18a. C to D indicate a heel needle lowering portion which is a mesh increasing portion 14b in which a forward / reverse reciprocating rotation of a half circumference is continued and a needle raising picker and a needle lowering dropper are operated. Therefore, the heel part 14 of the sock according to the present invention has more courses from B to C than the courses from C to D, and has many stitches. Therefore, in the present invention, the heel gore line 18a is formed in a curved shape like a J-shape.

  Specifically, in FIG. 3, in the needle raising part 14a from the position B to the position C, the needle raising picker is operated, the first course is forward rotated and the right course is reduced by one, and the next course is Repeat the reverse rotation to reduce one eye on the left. When this reciprocation is repeated three times, the next reciprocation operates the lower dropper once to return the knitting range to a wide range at a glance. Therefore, the contour line from B to C is zigzag on both the left and right sides, the course from B to C is more than the course from C to D, and from the stitch raising portion 14b, which is the stitch increasing portion 14b consisting of the stitch lowering portion. The stitches having a large number of stitch reduction portions 14a are provided with a space.

  On the other hand, C to D are ordinary knitting methods. Therefore, the heel gore line 18a is not formed in a straight line because the left and right stitches are different, but is formed in a curved shape. It should be noted that only the tip number course 23 of the heel gore line 18a is in a normal operation state where the lowering dropper is operated from the rest. This is for providing durability to the number-of-tips course 23 of the gore line 18a.

  Next, in FIG. 2, the toe part is 16, which comprises a toe eye reducing part 16a and a toe eye increasing part 16b, between which a toe gore line 18b is formed. A high heel knitting 19 is inserted in the knitted fabric immediately before the toe stitch reducing portion 16a. The high heel knitting 19 is a knitted knitted fabric with a margin, and the toe stitch reducing portion 16a is made smaller by that amount.

  In FIG. 4, E to F are ordinary knittings before entering the toe, and the needle raising picker and the needle lowering dropper are resting at the full circumference forward rotation. The high heel knitting 19 from the position F to the position G starts to be knitted by forward / reverse reciprocating rotation once from a knitting range that is less than a half circumference of the cylinder. . That is, the knitting is performed in forward and reverse rotations, and is increased one by one at the right end and the left end, and returned to the knitting range of a half circumference, and the knitted fabric is wrinkled to give a margin.

  The knitted fabric that has returned to the knitting range of the half circumference at the position G then enters the toe needle raising portion 16a, which is composed of the G to H toe stitch reduction portions. G to H are knitting the toe needle raising portion which is the toe eye reduction portion 16a by a normal knitting method in which a needle raising pick-up is applied and the needle lowering dropper is stopped from forward and backward reciprocating rotation of a half circle. The number of stitches of the toe stitch reducing portion 16a is reduced by the amount of the high heel stitch 19.

  At the toe needle lowering portion that becomes the next toe eye increasing portion 16b, the needle raising picker and the needle lowering dropper are operated to increase one by one with respect to the forward and reverse reciprocating rotations. Is stopped and the stitches are returned and reduced. Therefore, the contour line from H to I becomes zigzag on both sides, the course from H to I is more than the course from F to H, the toe eye increasing part 16b has more stitches than the toe eye reducing part 16a, and relaxed I have room. In the present invention, the toe gore line 18b is formed in a curved shape like a C-shape. Only the tip number course 23 of the toe gore lie 18b is in a normal operation state by operating the lowering dropper from the rest. This is for providing durability to the number-of-tips course 23 of the gore line 18a.

  The socks of the present invention have a wide and generous space compared to conventional socks that were tight with fingertips and heels clogged, so it is widely used not only for general socks but also for socks of people with legs, athletes, etc. It is possible.
