Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a technique for manufacturing a towel product, and more particularly to a body towel used for cleaning the body when taking a bath.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A loofah has been conventionally used for rubbing the body in a bathroom to remove dirt, but recently, a body towel made of synthetic fiber is generally used. This body towel is formed in a mesh shape and has a large number of concavities and convexities formed by thermoforming on the surface. Since the body towel has the concavities and convexities, the surface becomes rough. Further, this body towel has a slight elasticity, and can be cleaned by rubbing it against the skin during use.

[0003]

By the way, since the above-mentioned conventional body towel is made of synthetic fiber, even if the body is rubbed after being soaked in hot water, even if the surface is rubbed with bubbles, the uneven portion of the synthetic fiber will be directly on the skin. There was a problem of touching the skin and damaging the skin. In addition, since there is a limit to how softly formed, the touch feeling is inferior and the usability is poor. It should be noted that there is no particularly excellent product as a body towel, since conventional cotton towels have a poor feeling of use as scrubbing, have poor foam breakage, and are difficult to dry. The present invention aims to solve the above problems.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention is characterized in that it is made of cotton yarn and ridges are formed at equal intervals on the towel surface. Specifically, the organization and chain assembly using three reeds is reed L1 555/444/555/000/111/0
00 // × 4 reed L2 000/111/000/555/444/5
55 // × 4 Reed L3 100/011 // × 12.

[0005]

According to the above-mentioned knitting, two yarns of the mesh for inserting the reed L1 and two yarns of the mesh for inserting the reed L2 are inserted at the same time between the chain knitting of the reed L3 and the chain knitting. Since this portion has a ridge-like shape, ridge-like unevenness is formed on one surface of the towel at equal intervals.

[0006]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a knitting organization chart of a body towel according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of a knitted fabric on one surface of the body towel, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the appearance of the cloth of the body towel. This body towel can be used with Karlmeier warp knitting machines (eg K
S4FBZ machine 28E), cotton pile yarn 1-3
Use 3 reeds. Then, the basic fabric 4 is formed by knitting the reeds L1 to L3. In this Karlmeier warp knitting machine, chain knitting needles and pile knitting needles are alternately arranged, but in this example, only chain knitting needles are used.

In FIG. 1, the reed L1 shows the first insertion mesh, the reed L2 shows the second insertion mesh, and the reed L3 shows the chain stitch. Reeds L1 to L made up of three reeds in this formation
The organization and chain of 3 are as follows. Reed L1 555/444/555/000/111/0
00 // × 4 reed L2 000/111/000/555/444/5
55 // × 4 Reed L3 100/011 // × 12

In this yarn use, each reed is used with 14 threads per inch, and as shown in FIG. 2, it is between the chain knitting of the reed L3, that is, each loop of the chain knitting consisting of the pile yarns 3. Reed L
Two yarns 1 of the inserting mesh of 1 and two yarns 2 of the inserting mesh of the reed L2, that is, a total of 4 yarns can be simultaneously inserted. As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, a large number of ridges 5 are formed on one surface 4a.
Are formed at equal intervals and the other surface 4b is smooth.
% Mesh knitted fabric was obtained. The density of this knitted fabric is 11 threads / cm, the work width is 12㎃ × 10 width, the mesh holes are about 1mm in the lateral direction (the distance between the chain stitches), and the longitudinal direction (the distance between the ridges and ridges) ) Is about 2 mm. Further, the strength of this knitted fabric is 5.7 kg / cm ² , and it is a strong fabric 4.

Since the smooth surface 4b of the cloth 4 is smooth to the touch, the cloth 4 has a soft touch. Further, since the ridge-shaped portion 5 causes unevenness, a sharp feeling can be obtained. Therefore,
The front and back of the cloth 4 can be used properly, and can be used as a towel for wiping sweat, and when it is used as a body towel for removing dirt in the bathroom, effective rubbing can be performed. In the present invention, the most effective scrubbing sensation, foaming, foam breakage, and dryness in the above composition were obtained, and the knitting structure as shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. Can also be obtained. The one shown in Fig. 4 has a slightly wider gap between the ridges, and the one shown in Fig. 5 has six yarns between the chain knitting and the ridges have the same thickness. The section becomes larger. When the pile yarn is colored yarn,
A body towel such as a checkered pattern can be formed and can also be used for other purposes such as decoration.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, the insertion mesh of the reed L1 and the insertion mesh of the reed L2 are simultaneously inserted between the chain knitting of the reed L3 and the chain knitting, and Since a large number of ridges are formed on one surface at equal intervals, the surface of the body towel is uneven. When this body towel is used in the bathroom, the uneven surface effectively rubs it. And according to the invention,
When used as a scuff due to the ridge-shaped uneven surface, it has a sharp feeling and is excellent in a feeling of use as a scuff, and moreover, due to the spacing between the threads of the mesh structure formed by forming the ridges, the foaming and the defoaming are excellent. It was also excellent in dryness after use.

Further, since the ridge-shaped uneven surface appears remarkably on only one surface, it is possible to properly use the uneven surface and the smooth surface with one towel. In addition, since the material can be knitted with cotton thread, when hot water is included, it does not come into contact with the skin softly and the skin is not damaged.
Furthermore, since the entire body is formed soft, it has an excellent feeling in touch and usability as compared with the conventional body towel made of synthetic fibers.
