Description

  The present invention provides a knitting method for making a knitted fabric less likely to shrink when washed with water when creating a wiping cloth for wiping off dirt in a kitchen, a bathroom, a bathroom, etc. It is about.

Conventionally, woven fabrics, non-woven fabrics, toweling fabrics, etc. have been widely used as wipes for towels, dining tables, washstands, etc. Recently, knitting knitted with a warp knitting machine such as a Russell knitting machine from the standpoint of increasing production efficiency. Wipe cloth using the ground has been put into practical use. (For example, see Patent Documents 1 and 2)
As shown in FIG. 2, the wiping cloths of these knitted fabrics are usually laterally arranged between adjacent wales or wales separated by a predetermined interval on a ground structure composed of chain stitch rows knitted in parallel in the wale direction by warps 1 '. It is a knitted fabric knitted with a structure knitted by shaking, and the wiping property is improved by using pile forming yarn, crimped yarn or the like for the weft 2.

  However, since the wiping cloth by the known knitted fabric has only the weft yarn 2 inserted into a large number of chain stitch rows a arranged in parallel, after knitting using rayon spun yarn, after use, There is a drawback that the length shrinks by 15% or more even if the width is hardly changed when it is soaked in lukewarm water, pulled up, hand-washed and squeezed.

  The present invention pays attention to the above-mentioned drawbacks, and provides a knitted fabric that hardly shrinks even by hand washing by finding a knitting method that is difficult to shrink especially when knitting using rayon spun yarn, and improves wipes with rayon spun yarn. It aims to plan.

  That is, the present invention suitable for the above object is a method of knitting a cloth for wiping such as a cloth using a Russell machine, using rayon spun yarn for warp and weft, and a large number of yarns in parallel in the wale direction. While knitting a wale-direction warp stitch row in a zigzag manner with needle overlap, wefts are inserted into the course direction in a zigzag manner by traversing between 3 wales in the course direction, and aligned in a zigzag manner with an opening. Knitting a knitted fabric composed of a combination of a knitted wale direction warp stitch row and multiple rows of weft insertion yarns inserted parallel to each other in a transverse manner between three wales in the course direction with respect to the stitch row And Here, the thickness of the rayon spun yarn used for knitting the knitted fabric of the present invention may be the eighth single yarn, the sixteenth single yarn or the sixteenth twin yarn, which is appropriately selected according to the object to be wiped. The

  The present invention is knitted by warp wale direction stitch rows arranged in a zigzag manner with one needle overlap by an opening, and multiple rows of weft insertion yarns inserted by traversing between 3 wales in the course direction with respect to the warp stitch rows As a result, the softness of the texture is increased and water washing is performed compared to the case where wefts are swayed and inserted into the conventional warp chain stitch row or closed stitch row that are aligned on a straight line due to the combination of the two structures. The shrinkage in the length direction is less likely to occur, and it is effective as a knitting method for a knitted fabric of a wiping cloth such as a towel that requires washing with warm water and squeezing in use.

It is an organization chart showing an example of the knitted fabric of the wipe according to the present invention. It is an organization chart showing the knitted fabric of a known wipe.

  Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the knitting method of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. As described above, the present invention consists of jointly knitting multiple rows of weft insertion yarns inserted in a wale direction warp knitting row arranged in a zigzag manner with needle overlap as described above by lateral swinging between 3 wales in the course direction.

  FIG. 1 shows the knitting mode. In the figure, 1 is a warp yarn, 2 is a weft insertion yarn, and as shown in the figure, a large number of warp yarns 1 are arranged in parallel in the warp direction, each zigzag with one needle overlap by an opening The knitting yarns 2 are knitted as warp stitch rows extending in the wale direction, while the weft insertion yarns 2 are inserted in the warp stitch rows arranged side by side in the course direction and between the three wales in parallel with each other. As shown in FIG. 1, a wale-direction warp knitting row which is knitted in a zigzag manner with an opening as shown in FIG. A knitted fabric structure of the inventive wipe is formed.

  Here, as the warp 1 and the weft insertion yarn 2 used in the knitting, various synthetic fiber yarns can be used. In the present invention, rayon spun yarn is particularly used, and preferably 8 to 16 single yarns. Or use twin yarn. Of course, the thickness of the warp yarn and the weft insertion yarn is usually the same, but this is not necessarily limited to this.

  Further, the wale-direction warp stitch rows extending in the warp direction can be formed as one-needle overlap of the closed stitches, but it is effective to knit with open stitches because of the flexibility of the texture as the knitted fabric. The weft insertion yarns are knitted in the course direction across the three wales of the warp stitch rows, but a certain degree of effect is expected even if the knitting yarns are knitted across adjacent knitting rows or between wales that are spaced apart from each other. Although possible, a sideways insertion between 3 wales is most preferred and effective. Hereinafter, the effect will be confirmed by examples.

Example 1
Using warp and weft insertion yarns of rayon spun yarn # 16, warp stitch rows knitted in a zigzag pattern with a single needle overlap at the opening, and the warp stitch rows are swung across 3 wales in each row A knitted fabric for wiping consisting of the inserted laterally inserted tissue was prepared.

  On the other hand, it comprises a conventional chain stitch row extending in the warp direction using the same rayon spun yarn # 16, and a structure shown in FIG. Created a knitted fabric. Each of the knitted fabrics was cut into a width of 37 cm and a length of 30 cm, dipped in warm water at 37 to 38 ° C. for 5 minutes as a cloth, and hand-drawn and then squeezed. Contrast knitted fabric. As a result, although there was almost no change in the width direction in the present invention and the conventional knitting, the conventional knitted fabric contracted to 25 cm in the length direction, whereas the knitted fabric of the present invention did not have wrinkles or shrinkage. Although it was seen, it was confirmed that the length of 28 cm was maintained and the shrinkage was small.

Comparative Example 1
Next, the structure is the same as that of the conventional knitted fabric, but the type of yarn is changed, knitting is performed using cotton spun yarn No. 18, twin yarn, soaked in warm water and washed in the same way, and when squeezed, the width is almost the same. Although it was not, the length shrunk to about 23 cm.

Comparative Example 2
Next, in the knitted fabric of the present invention, the knitted fabric is knitted with the opening closed and closed, similarly cut to 37 cm in width and 30 cm in length, immersed in warm water, hand-drawn and squeezed, the width is almost unchanged and However, the length was 26cm, and some shrinkage was observed, and the knitted fabric felt the hardness of the hand wash and drawing. There was little, and the shrinkage prevention effect was recognized enough.
