Description

Method and apparatus for manufacturing patterned knitted fabric

The present invention relates to a method for producing a knitted fabric in which the pattern according to the preamble of claim 1 is placed, and an apparatus for manufacturing a knitted fabric in which the pattern according to the preamble of claim 9 is placed.

Manufacturing methods and manufacturing devices of that type are known from DE 44 32 222 C1. In the case of the embodiment disclosed therein, the pattern knitting bar (knit rail) is located between the selection device disposed on the front side of the warp knitting machine and the two ground knitting bars. The glyph is ligated to the base of the knitted fabric by a gravitational plate disposed between the glyph bar and the base knitting bar. In that case, the selection device can freely pull out the pattern yarn, hold the pattern yarn with forceps, cut it, and directly suck the pattern yarn. In such a configuration, the glyph is subsequently cut in the unpatterned section as a thread floating on the base of the knit fabric. Rather, the glyphs are temporarily excluded from the knitting process and are only ligated again on the basis of the knitting only when desired. Thus, a blank pattern is provided and the loss of the glyph material is very small.

From DE 42 26 899 C1 a pressurized needle is disclosed which can be moved and optionally dispensed by a piezoelectric curved transducer. German patent application No. 195 51 053.8-26, which has not yet been preliminarily disclosed, also discloses a knitting rail which can be selectively moved and distributed in one or two.

It is an object of the present invention to expand the variety of patterns of knitted fabrics with patterns of the type predicated at the outset at a low cost.

Such an object is achieved by the construction described in the characterizing part of the method according to claim 1.

In such a configuration, the base yarn bundle is disposed between the glyph and the selection device. Thereby, since the pattern yarn is ligated to the base of the knitted fabric by the base yarn, it is possible to omit the gravity plate. However, the drawing of the selected pattern by the selection device is prevented by the background thread bundle. According to the present invention, the base yarn bundle is formed with a gap, and the tongs are introduced through the gap to catch the pattern. As soon as the tongs grab the glyph and pull it out, the entry and exit of the glyph is free, so that the subsequent selection step can be carried out without any obstacle in a known manner.

According to claim 2, the gaps in the underlay bundles are formed only for a short time of the work cycle. As soon as the tip of the tongs is introduced into the crevice and catches the glyph, leaving the batter, the batter knitting needle returns to its normal position, because the batters forming the crevice remain separated from each other by the drawn glyph. Because it becomes.

It is preferred to form a free needle passage in order to create a gap according to claim 3. Thus, gaps can be created within the limits of normal movement control.

According to the configuration according to claim 5, the glyph guided in the second moving row can also be caught by the forceps.

Claim 6 leads to a very simple configuration in which the glyph can be excluded from the knitting process.

It is also noteworthy that another configuration according to claim 7 offers the possibility of placing a glyph.

It is preferred to knit the pattern by two or more knit knitting needles before making a cut according to claim 8. Thereby, very robust ligation is achieved.

In structural terms, the object of the present invention is achieved by a warp knitting machine according to the features of claim 9. In such warp knitting machines, the configuration that emerges occupies one or more base knitting bars in a defined position, i.e. between the pattern knitting bar and the selection device, and is placed back and forth or closely next to each other to each other to form a free needle passage. To attach two adjacent base yarn knitting needles that provide the desired clearance.

According to the configuration of claim 10, all of the batter knitting needles of the batter bar are evacuated to form a needle passage.

According to the structure of Claim 11, the background thread knitting needles of 1 row of the background thread knitting needles of 2 rows perform an evasion movement also individually.

Claim 12 describes another preferred configuration for generating an avoidance movement.

In the preferred embodiment according to claim 13, the avoidance movement is carried out when the purl movement is performed. At the same time as the avoidance movement, the forceps are introduced into the gap formed by such avoidance movement.

Various patterns can be placed by the placement of the glyph knitting needle according to claim 14, and unnecessary glyphs can be reliably excluded from the ligation process. In particular, in other cases, the limit of the width of the pattern can be omitted.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

1 to 3 show the working zone of the warp knitting machine according to the present invention. The left side of the figure is a stand of the knitting weaver, that is, the front side of the warp knitting machine, and the rear side of the warp knitting machine is located on the right side of the figure. The knitted fabric 2 produced by the knitted knitting needle 1 is drawn out via the discharge device 3. The blank yarns (4, 5), glyph yarns (6, 7), and the blank yarns (8) are attached to the bottom yarn knitting needles (9, 10), the pattern yarn knitting needles (11, 12) and the bottom yarn knitting needles (13). Supplied by us. Such knitting needles are supported by two background knitting bars 14, 15, two patterned knitting bars 16, 17 and a background knitting bar 18, respectively. Such knitting bars are moved longitudinally by a movement control device, of which devices 19 to 22 are shown. The selection device 23 includes a forceps 24, a suction device 25 and a cutting device 26 that works constantly, with the forceps 24 attached to the actuating device 27. Such devices 19 to 22 and 27 are coordinated by the pattern placement and movement control device 28. For the detailed configuration of the selection device, reference may be made to DE 44 32 222 C1.

The field knitting bars 14, 15 each have a field thread knitting needle 9, 10 whose density is half the knitting density of the loom of the loom, which are complementary to each other. The knitting density of the complete loom is achieved. Glyph knitting bars (16, 17) form one unit whose density is half the knitting density of the loom. Each glyph knitting needle (11, 12) of each glyph bar has a knitting density of the loom. A density of 1/4 of the figure is assigned. The pattern knitting needles 11 and 12 are pressurized needles that can be pushed and dispensed into one or two, and in addition, the operation is controlled by the movement control device 21 with the grounding of 00/44. The base yarn knitting needle 13 of the base knitting bar 18 is given a density corresponding to the knitting density of the knitting machine of a complete loom. The underlying knit bar 18 may be formed as a Jacquard bar and may form another type of knit.

FIG. 1 shows how the tongs 24 catch the pattern yarns 6 or 7 by engaging in the gaps of the bundles of the base yarns 4 and 5 described below. According to FIG. 2, such glyphs 6, 7 are each drawn outward by their own tongs 24, the threaded part 29 of which is placed immediately in front of the cutting device 26 and immediately Is cut. The free end of the seal portion 29 is then absorbed by the suction device 25.

3 shows that the glyphs 6, 7 are ligated to the base of the knitted fabric formed by the base yarns 4, 5 at an optional subsequent point in time. As soon as the glyph is reliably anchored, the cutting device 26 performs a new cutting action. The tongs 29 release the seal portion 29 only when the next selection operation is performed, and the released thread portion 29 is completely sucked.

4 shows that the selection device 23, the two ground knitting bars 14, 15 and two patterned knitting bars 16, 17 forming one unit are their tongs 24, the ground yarn needles 9, respectively. , 10) and the arrangement of the knitting needles 11 and 12 in correspondence to the knitting needle 1 in particular in the situation where the selected forceps 24 are about to start their forward movement. Each base yarn knitting needles 9 and 10 are fixedly assembled to the base knitting bars 14 and 15 at a density corresponding to half of the knitting density of the loom, that is, at intervals distributed to the two knitting needles. . The two blanking bars 14, 15 are reversed in normal operation so that the needles are dispensed so that all knit knitting needles are assigned to the blank yarns, but they may be moved together in common if desired. However, in order for the tongs 24 to grasp the pattern 6, the base yarn knitting bar 15 must be moved opposite to the base yarn knitting bar 14 to dispense the needle. Then, a needle passage 30 is provided which is free from the bottom thread knitting needles 9 and 10, and as a result, the above-described gap is formed so that the tongs 24 are driven by the pattern knitting needles 11 or 12 through the gap. Be able to grasp the supported glyphs 6 or 7. As soon as the tongs 24 grab the pattern and pull it out, the blanking bar 15 can again occupy its normal position.

In the case of the embodiment according to FIG. 5, the two background knitting bars 14, 15 are replaced with a common background knitting bar 32. Such a field knitting bar 32 supports two rows 33, 34 of field yarn needles 35, 36. The base yarn knitting needle 35 is fixedly assembled, and the base yarn knitting needle 36 is a pressurized needle which can be individually moved and dispensed. By moving the individual pressurized needles, needle passages 37 are also formed free from the base yarns, whereby the selected forceps 24 can grasp corresponding patterns through the needle passages 37.

According to FIG. 6, instead of the base knitting bar 32, a column knitting bar 38 with a different position of the row may be used, in which the base knitting bar 38 can be pushed down with a fixed base knitting needle 39. Base yarn knitting needles 40 are alternately placed. When the latter is pushed back and placed closely to the side of the former, a free needle passage 41 is likewise provided. Such a construction scheme is particularly suitable for dispensing the needles inaccurately.

7 shows an example of placing a pattern by the ground yarns 4 and 5 and the pattern yarn 6. The background yarn 4 is knitted as fringes. The bottom yarn 5 also floats as a fringe, but in each second work cycle makes an evacuation movement, indicated by the leader line 42 in the drawing, by which the free needle passage described above in connection with FIG. 4. 30 is formed. It is sufficient that such avoidance movement is only carried out for a short time when purl. Thus, the base knitting bar 15 performs a displacement movement of 42/024, while the normal displacement movement of 42/24 is applied to the background knitting bar 14 as it is.

Glyph 6 is ligated as a weft. The first cutting process is carried out at point 43 after the glyph 6 is knit via two or more, in this case, four knitting needles and fixedly ligated to the base of the knitting. In the following two working cycles, the glyph 6 is pushed back against the movement of the glyph bar, as shown by the dotted line 44, resulting in two needle distributions, indicated by arrows 45, Accordingly, the pattern yarn (6) is maintained without engaging the base yarns (4, 5). The next step is also carried out at point 46 after the glyph 6 is fixedly ligated to the base of the knitted fabric. Thus, the thread portion 29 is not placed on the knitted fabric as a floating thread as it is, but is held by the selection device 23 without engaging the base of the knitted fabric.

There are no fluctuations of the ground yarns 4 and 5 in FIG. However, a total of seven glyphs 6 are ligated to the base of the knit fabric by the nose 47, not as wefts.

Any known means can be employed to place the pattern. The glyph knitting needles 11 and 12 preferentially become pressure needles. In particular, a pressurized needle can be used that is controlled by piezoelectricity and can be moved to dispense the needle into two. However, the pressurized needle may be controlled in other ways, for example, by electromagnets or by common jacquard control devices. Correlative placement is also carried out by the glyph placement and movement control device 28.

By the above-described configuration, the following working manner is provided. When the knitting needle is moved to the discharge position, and the suspension device with the knitting bars 14 to 18 is pivoted to the foremost position, the ground knitting bar 15 is moved to the avoiding position. The tongs 24, which are determined to be used, are selected and moved to the corresponding glyphs 6 or 7 through the gaps formed in the bundle of the base yarns (see FIG. 1). By purl movement of the pattern knitting bars 16, 17, the pattern yarns 6 or 7 are inserted into the clamp hooks of the tongs 24. Then, the tongs 24 are moved back. As soon as the tongs 24 leave the crevices of the base yarn bundle, the base knitting bar 15 is moved back from the avoiding position to the base position. The glyphs 6 or 7 are fixedly clamped by the forceps 24. The glyph knitting needles 11 and 12 corresponding to the selected glyphs 6 and 7 are pushed down by the two needles in the opposite direction to the purl of the overall glyph bar (see arrow 45 in FIG. 7). ). Thereby, the thread unnecessary for pattern placement is not ligated (refer FIG. 2). The knitting bars 14-18 are then pivoted to the rearmost position. Then, the supposing of the base knitting bars 14, 15 may begin. Unnecessary yarns 6 and 7 are cut directly above the knit by the cutting device 26 after passing two or three rows of noses. In that case, the cut end portions of the glyphs 6 and 7 are sucked by the suction device 25.

To continue placing the pattern, stop the purl of the selected glyphs 6, 7 any longer and lig the glyphs 6, 7 as wefts or noses to the base of the knit fabric. The yarn clamped to the selection device 23 is cut by the cutting device 26 after passing two or three rows of noses, and the second end portion of the remaining yarn is drawn into the suction device.

In the method and apparatus for manufacturing a patterned knitted fabric according to the present invention, there is a possibility that the pattern can be freely laid with a blank knitted shape between the base and the pattern of the knitted fabric as a whole. Since the glyph is excluded from the knitting process at any point and can be ligated again at any point, the glyph is mixed on the basis of the knit or placed on the knit as a floating thread and subsequently removed. Are unnecessary.
