[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

However, with conventional cloth headrest covers, after the cover is attached, the cover shifts as the seated person's head moves, and the cover is only held on the headrest by the elastic strips in the opening, so in some cases When the cover is removed, it falls off.

Furthermore, a sewing process is required to provide a ring part through which the elastic strip is inserted into the opening, and there is a problem in that it cannot be manufactured continuously in the - process, making it difficult to save labor.

The present invention was made in order to solve these problems, and aims to save labor by automating the manufacturing process, and also provides a headrest cover that does not slip off after being installed, and that does not fall off when removed from the headrest. The purpose is to provide a method for producing the same.

[Means for solving problems]

The headrest cover of the present invention is formed in a bag shape, and is characterized by having an elastic ring part having a required width at the opening thereof, and a connecting part connecting two opposing points of the opening part, In addition, the manufacturing method is to knit it into a bag shape by flat knitting, knit it to the required width by using stretchable bag knitting over the entire circumference of the opening to form an elastic ring part, and knit this elastic ring part. At this time, a connecting part connecting two opposing points of the opening is provided, and the periphery of the elastic ring part is knitted with heat-shrinkable thread,
It is characterized by heat-treating the spun yarn.

[Effect]

In the present invention, one of the openings of the headrest cover, which is divided into two parts by the connecting part, is expanded to cover one end of the headrest, and then the connecting part is brought into contact between both legs of the headrest, so that the cover is attached to the headrest. Attach to.

As a result, the connecting portion is held between both legs of the headrest, preventing the cover from falling when removed from the headrest.

〔Example〕

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below based on drawings showing embodiments thereof.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a headrest cover according to the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the product of the present invention). The product of the present invention is knitted into a bag-like shape large enough to cover a headrest using yarn, and has a bag-like part 1 that is rectangular when folded, and a bag-like part 1 that extends over the entire circumference of the opening end of the bag-like part 1. , an elastic ring part 2 having greater elasticity than the bag-like part 1, a reinforcing edge part 3 around the entire periphery of the elastic ring part 2, and a central part of the bag-like part l in the elastic ring part 2 facing each other in the longitudinal direction. an opening 5 which is divided into two parts by this connecting part 4;
It has a, 5b. If not attached to the headrest,
Due to the elasticity of the elastic ring portion 2, the opening thereof has a narrowed shape.

Next, the knitting procedure of the product of the present invention will be explained. Knitting is started from the top of the product of the present invention using a flat flat knitting machine, for example, a flat knitting machine.

First, perform bag knitting using only the ground yarn, for example, 12 times,
Next, the bag jacquard knitting using colored threads and base threads is repeated 48 times to create a houndstooth lattice pattern with 8 stitches and 8 rows. Furthermore, 12 round trips were made using bag knitting using only the ground yarn.
The bag-shaped portion 1 is knitted by the above steps. Following the bag-shaped part 1, the elastic ring part 2 is knitted by performing bag knitting using both ground thread and rubber thread 12 times back and forth. At this time, the ground yarn is knitted using all the latch needles on the front and rear needle beds without punching, but the rubber thread, for example, is knitted using all latch needles on both the front and rear needle beds. Thread on one needle every second needle, so-called 1x
Knitted using two-needle rubber knitting.

Following this, bag knitting using only the ground yarn is performed once, but at this time, the center part of the knitted part by the front needle bed (or back needle bed) is Three latch needles on both the front and rear needle beds are used to knit the front and back at the same time, and in the same way, on the return (or forward) journey of knitting, the latch needles on both the front and rear needle beds are used only in the central part. Organize. As a result, a connecting portion 4 connecting the two points of the cover openings 5a and 5b is formed. FIG. 11 is a knitting diagram showing how the connecting portion 4 knitted in this manner is knitted.

Further, heat-shrinkable yarn is knitted around the entire circumference of the opening, and the heat-shrinkable yarn is heat-treated.

In addition, in this example, the connecting portion 4 of the product of the present invention was knitted by simultaneously knitting three latch needles on each of the front and rear needle beds, and this knitting was performed in one reciprocation, but the number of latch needles to be knitted at the same time is not limited to three, and the same formation may be performed one or more round trips. Furthermore, the bag-shaped portion 1L:D knitting is not limited to the above-described knitting method, and may be any conventionally known kg rh force. Moreover, the rubber knitting of the elastic ring part 2 is not limited to 1×2 needle-pull rubber knitting, but may be knitted with 2 stitches or more.
