DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a Meyer blanket which is a knitted blanket knitted by a double Russell knitting machine,
In particular, the present invention relates to a new and novel form of Meyer blanket suitable for spring and autumn.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a Meyer blanket is formed by a double Russell knitting machine called a Karl Meyer knitting machine.
While knitting the front and rear two ground knitting structures, knitting is performed so that the pile yarn is hung between the two knitting structures, and the two knitting structures are cut off in the middle of the pile yarn and divided into two pieces, and the pile fiber bundle This is a double blanket in which the above-described separated two-layer knitted fabrics are overlapped on the back side (non-pile side) with each other. There is also a single-sided blanket in which only one side is raised using a knitted structure, and a double-sided blanket in which both sides are also raised.

[0003] However, the conventional Meyer blanket is suitable as a normal blanket used in winter because it has a uniform and dense fluff on both sides or one side, and is excellent in heat insulation. However, it is thick and heavy. It is hot and unsuitable for use in seasons and places where the temperature is not so low such as spring and autumn.

[0004] In view of the above circumstances, the present invention provides a Meyer blanket with excellent air permeability and moderate heat retention.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a material that is lightweight, has a good touch, is particularly suitable for spring and autumn, and is morphologically novel and can be manufactured at low cost.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, according to achieve the above, Meyer blanket according to the inventions is, first of all in the pile yarn to the first is every several courses and number wales of the ground knitting structure, the same number the course and the number wales By vertically and horizontally knitting, the rising areas of the pile yarn groups are arranged alternately in the vertical and horizontal grids, and the pile yarns are formed with fluff.

[0006] In the Meyer blanket having the above structure, the pile yarn groups are arranged in every vertical and horizontal direction of the grid with several courses and several wales of the ground knitted structure as grids. The high density and long fluff provide moderate heat retention, the other areas of the grid are low-density areas where pile yarns do not rise, have good air permeability, and the grid pattern has a ground pattern. It is visually very novel and gives a good tactile sensation, and the pile yarns rise area is １ ／ of the blanket surface, so the amount of pile yarn used is reduced, and the entire blanket is a normal blanket. As a result, the weight is reduced (generally, the weight is reduced by about 40%), and the material cost is also reduced.

In addition, according to the present invention, secondly , the pile group non-starting area between the above-mentioned pile yarn group starting areas.
In the region , a region having only a ground knitting structure and a region in which pile yarns are woven in a plane in the ground knitting structure are alternately arranged. Therefore, the rising area of the pile yarn group occupies 1/2 of the grid of the entire blanket, and the remaining grid is the grid unit composed of only the ground knitting structure and the grid unit composed of the plane braided area of the pile yarn. And it will be divided in half.
And the area | region only of a ground knitting structure | tissue shows high air permeability as a rough mesh-shaped cut | out which does not raise the pile yarn. Further, the plane weaving region of the pile yarn is a portion having a short fluff due to the raising of the pile yarn, and has an intermediate fiber density between the rising region of the pile yarn group and the region of only the ground knitting structure,
Responsible for some air permeability and heat retention.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 shows the overall appearance of a Meyer blanket according to the present invention, FIG. 2 shows an example of the construction of a double-sided piled brushed blanket, FIG.
It is a perspective view which shows each. These Meyer blankets are
Pile yarn raising is performed on the blanket fabric 1 having a grid pattern in which the meshes composed of the rising regions 10 of the pile yarn groups and the meshes composed of the non-rising regions 20 are alternately arranged vertically and horizontally. An edge cloth 3 is sewn on the periphery as shown in FIG.

The grid-like grid units of the blanket fabric 1 are substantially square in the vertical and horizontal directions over several courses (horizontal) and several wales (vertical) of the ground knitting structure 2, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. In the rising region (hereinafter, referred to as a dense region) 10 of the pile yarn group, a high density and long fluff 4a is formed by the rising pile yarn. The meshes of the non-raised region 20 include mesh units composed of an area 21 composed only of the ground knitting structure 2 (hereinafter referred to as a coarse area) and an area where pile yarns are woven in the ground knitting structure 2 in a plane. (Hereinafter referred to as the intermediate area)
The mesh units of 22 are alternately arranged in every other row in the vertical and horizontal directions of the grid, and the coarse region 21 of the former has a coarse mesh shape without pile yarn , while the intermediate region 22 of the latter Has low density and short fluff by brushing piled yarn 4
b is formed.

The Meyer blanket having the above structure has high heat insulation in the dense areas 10 having high density and long fluffs 4a, but has good air permeability in the rough areas 21 having a coarse mesh shape, and has good air permeability in the intermediate areas 22. Since the blanket has a certain degree of heat retention and air permeability, a moderate heat retention and air permeability can be obtained as a whole blanket, and it is particularly suitable for use in a season or a place where the temperature is not so low such as spring and autumn. In addition, in this Meyer blanket, the grid pattern becomes a ground pattern, giving a very novel impression visually, is excellent in design and has a good touch, and the rising area of the pile yarn group is 1/1 of the blanket surface. 2, the amount of pile yarn used is small, so that the weight is generally reduced by about 40% and the material cost is reduced as compared with the normal blanket of the entire pile.

In addition, such a Meyer blanket has a structure in which two ground knitting structures 2 are stacked in addition to a structure using one ground knitting structure 2 as shown in FIGS. A configuration may be adopted in which two blanket cloths 1 are overlapped on the back (non-pile surface) side and sewn or adhered.

To make the Meyer blanket of the present invention,
Using a double Russell knitting machine in the same manner as a conventional Meyer blanket, knitting the pile yarn between the two fabrics while knitting the two fabrics before and after, and knitting the fabric with the pile yarn of the cut pile fabric an intermediate in divided two separately, forms a fluff by raising specifications fiber bundle of pile, in order to arrange the high-density regions 10 in every aspect one cross-cut, the knitting At this time, the pile yarns may be set so that the pile yarns are knitted vertically and horizontally on the same number of courses and the same number of wales every several courses and several wales of the ground knitting structure.

That is, for example, in the double Russell knitting machine shown in FIG. 6, the guides (reeds) 7... L ₁ and warp (strand yarns) L _2, the pile yarn L _3, L _4, supplies a warp L ₅ and weft L _6, weft L
₁ the front of the ground stitch 2F at warp L _2, with organizing the ground stitch 2B of the rear at warp L ₅ and weft L _6, the pile yarn L _3, L ₄ the Ryochi knitting structure 2F, The knitting is performed so that the pile yarns L ₃ and L ₄ hung by the cutter 8 are cut while the knitting is being performed. At this time, one pile yarn L
_3, with a pitch of every several courses in a range of several wales, performs both the ground stitch 2F, to between 2B over the braid along the warp L ₂ to me and the front of the ground stitch 2F alternately. Further, the other pile yarn L ₄ is hooked between the two knitting structures 2F and 2B at the same pitch every several courses in the vertical range of several wale widths adjacent to the row where the pile yarn L ₃ is knitted. is performed alternately and braiding along the warp L ₅ to the ground stitch 2B of the rear the partial knitting along the warp L ₂ of the multiplied I portion to the front side of the ground stitch 2F in the pile yarn L ₃ side adjacent manner to, the pile yarn L ₃ side knitting by shifting one pitch. FIG. 7 is an organization chart in this knitting.

FIG. 4 is an example of a double pile fabric obtained by the above knitting. FIG. 5 is a cut pile fabric obtained by cutting the double pile fabric along a cut line indicated by a broken line C in FIG. 4 (the front ground knitting structure 2F side). Is shown. Here, for simplicity of illustration and explanation, the pile yarns L ₃ and L ₅ are hooked between the two knitting structures 2F and 2B and the knitting structures 2F and 2B.
The width and pitch of the knitting along the warp yarns L ₂ and L ₆ are 3 wales and 3 courses, but the number of the wales and courses can be variously set, and usually 5 wales and 5 courses.

[0015] As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the front ground knitted structure 2F side, each pitch having courses in columns of numbers wale width, attached knitting structure consisting weft L ₁ and warp L ₂ A dense area 10 in which pile yarns L ₃ rise,
The pile yarns L ₃ are arranged alternately with the intermediate regions 22 woven in a plane along the warp yarns L ₂ , and the weft yarns L ₁ are arranged at every pitch of several courses in a row of several wale widths adjacent thereto. The dense region 10 where the pile yarns L ₄ woven in the structure composed of the warp L ₂ rise and the coarse region 21 composed of only the weft L ₁ and the warp L ₂ without the pile yarn L ₄ … The positions of the regions 10 are alternately arranged so as to be shifted by one pitch from the columns adjacent to each other, thereby forming a grid pattern. Needless to say, the pile yarn L ₃ and the pile yarn L ₄ are also formed on the back ground knitting structure 2B side comprising the warp L ₅ and the weft L ₆ .
By simply reversing the above, an exactly similar grid pattern is formed.

The gauge number of the double Russell knitting machine is as follows:
It is good to be about 14 to 20 gauge / inch. The weft yarns L ₁ and L ₆ and the warp yarns L ₂ and L ₅ are preferably twisted yarns made of synthetic resin fiber filaments such as polyester, and the pile yarns L ₃ and L ₄ are preferably cotton yarns such as wool, acrylic and polyester. They are used to.

According to the present invention, however, the blanket cloth 1 is limited to the one having the cross-shaped ground pattern composed of the dense area 10, the intermediate area 22 and the coarse area 21 as described above. By knitting the pile yarn at the time of knitting in one plane only on one side of the two front and rear ground knitting structures, one of the separated ground knitting structures has a cross-shaped ground pattern of the dense region 10 and the intermediate region 22. And the other is a dense area 10
We shall have the grid pattern of the background pattern of the coarse region 21, also the configuration using one of these two ground stitch as blanket cloth
Is excluded.
