Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a knitted fabric guiding device that guides the knitted fabric immediately after being knitted.
A knitted fabric locking member is formed by densely planting elastic linear bodies on a pair of base materials sandwiching a downward path of the knitted fabric, and the head of the linear body is directed downward from the base portion of the linear body. and the pair of base materials are provided in a V-shape with an open bottom end, and the knitted fabric is nipped by the linear body strongly in the upper part of the knitted fabric locking member and weaker in the lower part. It is characterized by:

Conventionally, various devices have been devised for pulling down and guiding knitted fabrics, and in particular, devices have been devised that support and guide knitted fabrics from both sides with sinker plates. This device creates a knitted fabric path between opposing needle beds by providing serrated grooves on the sinker plate provided at the gap of the needle bed. It is certainly possible to prevent the knitted fabric that is being folded from rising upwards, but if the needle bed is latched, the sinker plate will naturally move laterally, so the knitted fabric that is held in place by the sawtooth irregularities will naturally move laterally. In some cases, the knitted fabric was rubbed as if it were being rubbed between the opposing sinkers, causing damage to the knitted fabric.

Therefore, the present invention has been developed to maintain the knitted fabric held in the guide device without any damage even when raking the needle bed, and to create a knitted fabric that is easy to curl to one side. The purpose is to hold the knitted fabric in its normal position along the knitted fabric pull-down path even if it is a fabric.

Next, an example of implementation of the device of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, a pair of needle beds 1, 1 are provided facing each other in a chevron shape, and the left and right needle beds 1, 1 and their accompanying devices have the same structure but are provided symmetrically. ing. Therefore,
The left and right needle beds and associated devices will be described with the same reference numerals.

The needle bed 1 has sinker plate grooves 2 cut at its tip at the same interval as the needle interval, and above the sinker plate groove 2, a sinker fixing wire groove 3 is provided on the upper surface of the needle bed 1, and a sinker plate fixing groove 4 is provided on the lower surface of the needle bed 1. Reference numeral 5 denotes a sinker plate, which has a recess 6 provided on its upper part that engages with a sinker fixing wire 7 fitted into the sinker fixing wire groove 3 of the needle bed 1, and a lower bent end 8 that engages with the sinker plate groove 4, thereby forming the sinker plate 5 as one unit with the needle bed 1. Reference numeral 9 denotes a tooth gap wire that is inserted through the adjacent sinker plate 5, and which receives the loop of the knitted fabric 15 knitted by the needles 10. Furthermore, a recess 11 is formed at the tip of the needle bed 1 along the sinker plate groove 2, and a knitted fabric retaining member 12 is provided in this portion. Knitted fabric retaining member 1
2 is formed by densely planting filaments 14 on a base material 13, and the filaments 14 extend beyond the sinker plate 5 to a descending path C of the knitted fabric located at the symmetrical central axis position of the needle beds 1,1.

An example of the base material 13 of the locking member 12 is one made by laminating cloth, nonwoven fabric, etc. to an appropriate thickness, and wires such as metal wires bent into a roughly U-shape are arranged on the base material 13 in an appropriate manner. By planting the shaped body 14, the knitted fabric locking member 12 is made. Further, the linear bodies 14 may be linear bodies made of synthetic resin or the like, and instead of being arranged one by one, the linear bodies 14 may be linear bodies bundled like a brush. Furthermore, the linear body and the base material may be integrally molded from synthetic resin.

Next, the operation of the device of the present invention will be explained.

The knitted fabric 15 has needle beds 1 facing each other,
The fabric is knitted by one or both of the knitting needles 10, 10 of 1, descends along the knitted fabric descending path C, and is rolled up by a winding device (not shown). During this time, the knitted fabric 15 is subjected to the clamping pressure of the linear body 14 of the knitted fabric locking member 12 from both sides thereof. Even if the knitted fabric 15 tends to curl to one side due to the structure of the knitted fabric 15, the appropriate elasticity of the linear body 14 allows the knitted fabric 15 to continue along the knitted fabric descending path C. It is pressed down and rolled up.

Also, even if one needle bed moves sideways due to latching operation,
Even if the base material 13 is moved due to the movement of the needle bed 1 due to racking, the knitted fabric locking member 12 that holds the knitted fabric 15 does not stop the linear body 14 due to the elasticity of the linear body 14 itself. , the tip in contact with the knitted fabric 15 does not exert a strong pulling effect on the knitted fabric 15 in the latching direction, and the linear body 14
acts as a buffer and does not damage the knitted fabric at all.

The device of the present invention is a knitted fabric in which linear bodies are densely planted on a base material, sandwiching the downward passage of the knitted fabric below the gap wires of a pair of needle beds that are arranged opposite to each other in the shape of a chevron as described above. Since the ground anchoring member is provided so that the head of the linear body is directed downward from the base portion of the linear body, the knitted fabric will not be damaged at all even when the needle bed performs a latching operation. Not only can the knitted fabric be kept in a locked state without causing any curling, but even if the knitted fabric tends to curl depending on its structure, the elasticity of the linear body holds the knitted fabric at the center position. It can be kept and rolled up. The pair of base materials of the device of the present invention has a V-shape with an open bottom end, so that the linear body planted on the top of the base material is different from the linear body planted on the bottom of the base material. It has the effect of nipping the knitted fabric more strongly than the body and being able to hold the knitted fabric in a well-balanced manner during knitting.
