Abstract

The present invention relates to improved pile fabrics containing courses in which at least two pile forming yarns are meshed across a complete course together cooperatively in various fabric constructions, and respectively into a ground fabric, and forming pile loops one another alternatively between succeeding wales or areas. The fabric is manufactured according to a process in which needles are moved into a feeding position in which they remain, meanwhile in at least two succeeding sections, alternatively, pile elements are selected and raised and after the feeding of a pile yarn are retracted to an intermediate position. The pile yarns are controlled separately from one another and are unaffected in their movement to the loop-forming and meshing action. The manufacturing is realized on circular knitting machinery having a plurality of knitting sections of a type having at least two cooperative beds adapted for movable disposition therein of respective circles of knitting needles and arranged for respective movement of knitting needles transversely of and between a circle of pile elements arranged in the other bed for respective movement of the pile elements each having a pile yarn engaging hook. The pile loops can be severed according to an arrangement provided for in the knitting machine.

Description

IMPROVED WOOL FABRIC, METHODS AND CIRCULAR WOVEN MACHINES WITH WOODEN ELEMENTS IMPROVED TO MANUFACTURE THE ANTEDICHA BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention An improved knitted woolen fabric, according to the preambles of claim 1, a method for manufacturing according to the preamble of claim 11, a circular knitting machine according to the preamble of claim 25 and a woolen element in accordance to claim 37 for the manufacture of the improved woven wool fabric; : * -1_: ecmca Knitted woolen or woolen fabrics are generally composed of support yarns that form a support fabric in constructions different to which the woolen yarns form protruding woolen loops, being woven. . In the overwhelming majority of the proposals for woven woolen fabrics, the fabric of the base fabric or support and the formation of the woolen loops is simultaneously made to weave the support yarn and the woolen yarn together in all points of each of the complete courses. With the exception of the proposal described in German Patent No. G71 333 in such a way that exclusively a woolen yarn woven together with a stitch support yarn. If the support fabric is woven in the simple jersey courses, a model is obtained exclusively by selecting the wool elements for wool or plating (unformed wool) or by forming wool loops of different lengths (for example as described). in German Patent No. 656 588, British Patent No. 462,662, US Patent No. 3,477,255). The colored models are produced by feeding different yarns of wool to a sequence of successor feeders and weaving loops of wool in one of the feeders in a predetermined section and meanwhile the other courses in this portion are composed of plated points. As a result, the density of the wool is reduced according to the number of courses woven in a sequence, and for a sufficient wool density the sequence of different wool yarns is usually limited to two.
Based on the method described in the above for woolen yarn the number of woolen yarns in a complete course is only increased by weaving a predetermined number of sectional courses in a sequence of at least two feeders after which the entire course is accomplished. Such methods are described in the proposals according to U.S. Patents 2,710,527; 4,409,800; German Patents 1 153 482; 1 585 051; in which the support yarns and floating yarns will expand over the woven reliefs of alternative wool and the support yarn. The manufacture of woolen fabrics decorated according to this proposal is limited by the floating and supporting threads which will also be projected from the fabric if they expand on more than three reliefs by means of which they can be cut in the operation of shearing required after weaving to remove the floating portions of the woolen threads and make the pattern visible. To avoid the longer floats of the support yarn when partial sections of a fabric are woven, it is proposed, according to European Patent No. 0 043 135 (corresponding to US Patent No. 4,633,683) to arrange the support yarn between the sections woven in a structure (accordion type) in batán. In an additional proposal, reference is made to European Patent No. 0 072 425, the yarns that are not formed from respective non-woolen yarns, are tied on the support fabric in a fuller structure, so that this fabric is used after woven in the construction intertwined in the same way. The batten portions of threads incorporated in the support fabric will expand the width of the fabric and also reduce the density of the course and therefore also the density of the wool and the elasticity of the fabric. To overcome such limitations a number of proposals over the last fifteen years have been made to weave at least two yarns formed of wool into a support fabric of a support yarn. To avoid the disadvantages of the method referred to in German Patent No. 671 333, resulting from the exact adjustment required of the thread stroke to feed a first yarn of wool to a first group of needles and arranged after this first yarn of wool at the rear of the needles of a second group of needles, by means of which an unverifiable tension of the first yarn of wool (especially according to the length of the wool provided, the friction of the yarn, alteration of the needles, etc.) must be accepted; it was proposed to provide subsequent sections of the yarn and support yarn feeders in which at least the woolen yarns are sawn or interlaced to portions of sectional woolen loops which are woven into a final section of a woven sequence together with a support thread to a complete course. Methods for manufacturing this type of fabric are described in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,612,784; 4,989,421; 5,167,133; European Patent Publications Nos. 0 335 618; 0 594 187; 0 629 727; German Patent Publications Nos. 40 33 735; 41 29 845; 195 05 646. As referred to in these publications, the support yarn will be woven exclusively with one of at least two woolen yarns in alternate and predetermined wool areas, so that the woolen yarns excluded from the woven wool spread or floated on the wool portions of the alternative wool threads. Therefore it is assumed that these floats are removed by a subsequent shearing process for weaving. As a result of this, only Veludilio or Velor fabrics that can be produced while a smaller shear increases, must be accepted according to the number of wool yarns -by course.
To reduce the percentage of the wool yarns in the fabric, respectively using woolen yarns in courses without increasing the portion of woolen yarns in the fabric, in some proposals for weaving the woolen yarns in the fabric by folding is provided. Analogous to the aforementioned proposals, it is proposed, according to the proposal of the European Patent Publication No. 0 484 692, to submerge or interlock in at least two successive wool thread feeders, alternatively, the sectional and releasing this wool loops from the needle locks in the end support yarn feeder, so that the loops of wool are drawn into the support fabric by folding. The scattered pieces of wool yarn must also be removed by shea as referred to above. It is noted that the woolen fabrics that incorporate the wool yarns by folding are also described according to the proposals of US Pat. Nos. 4,043,151; 4,409,800; European Patent No. 0 422 917; and British Patent No. 830,219. To avoid floats of wool yarns spreading on wool sections of alternative wool yarns, it was proposed, in German Patent Publication No. 27 04 295, to weave two wool yarns into subsequent feeders in alternate embossment. to a continuous construction in batán where, in each feeder, the predetermined wool elements take out loops of wool. Both woolen threads are woven in a smooth course of the support fabric. With this proposal it is exclusively possible to weave two woolen threads in a course without floats of the woolen threads so that the fabric can be used with the original loop structure or with the separate woolen loops with a reduced shear loss. The disadvantage of this proposal is that only two woolen yarns can be woven or incorporated into a support fabric when a sufficient wool density is obtained and the woolen yarns are traced to the base fabric exclusively by folding, which will reduce the dot density.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION With the foregoing in mind it is the object of the present invention to create a woven wool fabric comprising courses of which only wool loops of at least two hi. Wool fabrics will protrude so that this fabric with the loop structure can be used as well as the wool loops can be separated in the weaving machine to avoid a greater shear loss and to increase the quality of the velor-like surface of the fabric. A further object is that the meshing of the wool yarns to the support fabric is carried out in different fabric constructions so that the fabric can adapt to the required conditions. An additional object is that wool loops arranged in a course can be pulled to different lengths. A further object is that the woolen yarns are generally not immersed (intertwined) prior to their weaving or incorporation into the support fabric so that the interlacing is canceled.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The general objects of the present invention are obtained with respect to the wool fabrics by the characterized aspects of claim 11, as regards the circular knitting machine by the characterized aspects of claim 25 and as the aspects of the wool element by the Characterized aspects of claim 37.
According to this concept the woolen threads can be knitted to points as well as being woven into a fuller structure in a supporting fabric. When the woolen threads are knitted to stitches at least one of the woolen threads is alternately woven into the supporting fabric portions, with regular platinum loops; while the other wool yarn is extracted to the wool loops (elongated platinum loops). Consequently the alternate support fabric portions of the woolen yarns will be replaced by a specific support yarn for weaving the support fabric. The support yarns are required to weave a support fabric if the woolen yarns are incorporated therein into a fuller structure, but such a support fabric may also contain woolen yarns so that a woolen cloth decorated with more than three woolen yarns per course, may be prepared with a high wool density. To manufacture velor-like fabrics the present invention allows the separation of wool loops in the weaving machine preferably in association with those proposed in accordance with US Pat. No. 4,592,212, and the further improvement of German Patent Application 195 18 490 , so that an increase in shear loss is avoided and the wool material can be saved by means of shorter woven loops of wool. The manufacture of woolen fabrics with separate wool loops in the weaving machine will require a circular knitting machine with a dial, a cylinder and a platen ring according to the requirements described in the documents referred to above. In contrast to this to manufacture interlaced woolen fabrics, which are applicable in the woven loop structure or can be finished in a velor type fabric, the circular knitting machine will have two cooperating bases in which the knitting needles can be arranged alternately in one of the bases and the wool elements in the other. By means of different positions in the action that forms a loop, the wool loops of different lengths can be provided in each course. The woolen elements for manufacturing woolen fabrics according to the present invention are characterized by a hooked portion, in which the peak lp, of the hook is advanced or alternated in zigzag in relation to the radius of the inner bow of the hook towards the hook open, so that an oriented edge ls, is formed, which supports the correct feeding and arrangement of the wool threads. To separate from the wool loops the wool elements having a cutting edge spaced from the hook in continuation of the stems (portion orienting the loop), cooperating with cutting edges of the cutting elements. The woolen elements for manufacturing interlaced fabric structures in separate positions are additionally rotatable to control the woolen yarns. This ensures not to affect the movement of each wool yarn between the feeder and the wool formation (and velor-type fabrics with more than two wool yarns).

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED MODALITIES - Figure 1 illustrates a wool fabric characterized by alternating wool loops of both wool yarns. Both first yarn courses are composed of Al, Bl and second wool yarns A2, B2 alternately forming woolen loops (PA1, PA2), respectively, or regular plate loops (SAI, SA2). Each platen loop connects the adjacent points, of which the wool supports of the same yarn (wool) will protrude, securing an improved flake knot of the wool spikes on the fabric by means of which the wool formation of two wool yarns the filling of wool density is carried out. It is also apparent from the illustration that an additional support yarn is mainly not required when the friction of the woolen yarns with each other and when the density of the stitch is sufficient to provide solidity or tension of the fabric of the regular platinum loops of the yarns. wool threads. According to the intentions of the fabric designer the woolen loops PA1, PA2 of the woolen threads are arranged between the same reliefs, as shown, or they can be alternated in zigzag in subsequent courses in a desired cycle. With the described advantage of the improved fabric of the wool loops this fabric is a breakthrough in the weaving of the smooth wool fabrics.
In Figure 2 a part of a woolen fabric decorated with two woolen yarns is shown and an alternate fabric of portions of supporting yarn and loop portion of wool of each woolen yarn is illustrated. The first Cl, Dl wool threads are woven in regular SCI platinum loops when the second wool threads C2, D2 are extracted to the PC2 wool loops. Then, the first Cl, Dl wool yarns are drawn into the PCI wool loops while the second wool yarns C2, D2 are woven into regular SC2 loop loops. If the strength of the fabric is required on the alternation of the wool that is formed from one to the other wool yarn it was improved by feeding an additional support yarn. Sufficient tension or solidity of the fabric formed of two woolen yarns is obtained when changing the wool formed from one woolen yarn to the other woolen yarn to form a regular woven SL loop of both woolen yarns as shown in FIG. Figure 3 between the portions forming a wool loop. The wool areas of the first wool yarns El, Fl, Gl (PEÍ) are connected by an SL loop of regular platen from the first and second wool yarn with wool areas (PE2) from the second wool yarns E2, F2, G2.
Figure 4 illustrates a section of a fabric in which the courses are composed of three yarns formed of wool. A first course is shown as they are woven from the threads Hl, H2 and H3, and a second course of threads Kl, K2 and K3. According to the sequence of an exemplary model, the wool loops (PH1, PH2, PH3) of one of the three wool yarns will alternate. The regular platen loops are woven from both other threads that do not form loops and ensure a sufficiently solid fabric, in such a way that it generally excludes a specific support thread. If more than three colors in a line of a model is provided it is necessary to distribute the different colors in two successor courses where, in each course, the wool formed is suspended when the wool loops are arranged in the other course. This decoration is well known and the reduced wool density can be improved by an increased course density and larger wool loops. They are especially produced when velor type fabrics are recommended to separate the wool loops in the machine as described. If the dial is equipped with at least two different needle groups, by subjecting one to another, the fabrics according to the invention can be manufactured by a fabric and a lost base fabric construction in the same manner as described. Such base fabric constructions are well known (for example from the additional North American Patents Nos. 2,710,527 and 4,409,800). In contrast to the description of the modalities only one group of needles is raised and the other group will be lost. In the subsequent feeder the groups of needles are raised alternately to weave according to a predetermined sequence, for example, according to the documents referred to. With two different groups of needles are also feasible to fit the woolen threads into a fuller structure on the fabric. To obtain these alternating needle structures, the yarn-forming yarn is raised in the fold position and after feeding as described below in the embodiments, the folded needles are retracted to touch them above. The needles with the folds of the woolen threads remain in the subsequent feeder in the inactive or loss position. Meanwhile the alternative needles are raised to a released position and will be woven, at least with a support thread, the stitches being individually threaded. Subsequently, the floats of this support yarn will be tied in the woolen yarns folded previously in the fabric and will impede the movement of the woolen yarns when the needles are lifted in a subsequent feeder. A fabric of this type is illustrated in Figure 5. The woolen yarns Ll and L2 are woven together in the support fabric in a fuller structure and the woolen loops (PL1, PL2) of one of these yarns will be formed alternately. . The woolen threads Ll and L2 are then tied on the fabric with the floats FG2 of supporting yarn Gl woven on the alternate reliefs to the stitches. Consecutively, the woolen yarns MI and M2 will be folded in these reliefs and support yarn Gm is subsequently woven in the alternate embossments, by releasing the folds of the woolen yarns Ll and L2 of these needles, and processing them in the folds of the yarns. MI and M2 wool yarns. At the points of the support yarn Gm the folds of the wool yarns NI and N2 are. they arrange, which are tied in the web of the support thread Gn. As it is well known a structure in batán allows the coupling of the threads in course so that a high density of wool is obtained. In addition to the fabric described above, the stitches of the support fabric can be woven; at least two yarns formed of wool as described in the modalities in each part. In this way fabrics with more than three different yarns in a line or course are arranged without a reduction in wool density. The fuller structure of the woolen yarns can be incorporated into a smooth course of all the needles when the dial needles cooperate with supporting the fabrics as proposed, for example, in German Patent Publication 27 04 295. The illustrations in accordance Figures 1 to 5 and the description thereto provide an impression of the wide range of fabric constructions that can be created by the application of the present invention. Turning now to the apparatus, the simplified cross section of a circular knitting machine in Figure 6 shows an array of needles N on a dial D and wool elements 1 on a cylinder C. The wool elements 1 are activated collectively by their stop Ib or individually by the control mesh dimensions 3 in the form of two arm levers with a stop 3a on the upper portion and a stop 3b on the lower portion. The control mesh dimensions 3 are arranged in a tapered portion of the wool elements 1 and are placed by known decorating devices of a reset position, in which all the upper stops press the cylinder and all the stops 3b project from they individually to a selected position with an opposite arrangement of stops 3a and 3b. Each protruding abutment is controllable by co-operating cams subsequently described according to FIG. 7. The needles 1 on the D-dial are collectively activated all together by cams to weave a smooth fabric or into at least two groups at a predetermined different tissue cycle. to weave basic support fabric structures. The needle control and the cams are well known to one skilled in the art. To separate the movable cutting elements of wool loops 2 are arranged in a plate ring S which is mounted to the cylinder or arranged separately and driven synchronously with the cylinder and the dial. As it is visible in figure 6a, an inclined weave ridge D, cooperating with the needle hooks of the needles N, is provided on the dial to improve the regular plating of the threads. The wool elements 1 are characterized by a hook at the upper end with a lp peak advancing or alternating in a zigzag forward with respect to the center of the hook arch towards the peak In. From the peak Ip a shoulder ls is inclined towards the dial, opposite to the yarns formed of wool. The wool loops can be removed from the hooks of the hooks or the stem portion Pk of the wool elements. The wool elements 1 have a sharp cutting edge along the lower part of the stems and to separate the flange from the wool loops it is placed opposite the cutting edge 2c of the cutting element 2. The arrangement of the cutting edges and 2c to each other and the procedure of separating the wool loops are described according to Figures 2 and 3 of the earlier German Patent Application 195 18 490.4, respectively, US Patent No. US-A2-4,592,212 which are together with this fully incorporated as a reference for further details. The movement of the needles N to produce a smooth fabric is shown in figure 7 with the wool elements 1 woven alternately with one of two woolen yarns and the cutting elements 2. According to the trajectories of these cam elements they are therefore formed. The needles 1 are controlled according to the NT path to a released position. At this time all the wool elements are retracted according to the 1T path in position to straighten the previously woven loops of wool so that their portions of dots (see Figure 10), which can be lengthened by the release movement of the insurance of the needles, they retract and tighten around the stems of the needle to obtain a knitted side released from the fabric. Subsequently, all the wool elements 1 are raised to a cutting position, and the needles N are retracted to a feeding position. Close to the approach of the wool elements 1 in cutting position the cutting elements 2 are activated according to the trajectory 2T to the center of the machine, in such a way that a separation similar to a cutting with scissors of such wool loops is carried out. which were previously arranged in the middle of the cutting edges le and 2c (position VI respectively Figure 11) by a permanent fabric. The cutting action is completed in the position VII of Figure 7, and as shown in Figure 12 where the cutting edge 2c has passed the cutting edge of the wool element. Subsequently, the cutting elements 2 are retracted to their inactive position. Simultaneously with the stretching action of the woolen loops (position V in Figure 7) the control mesh dimensions 3 are placed in one of readjustment position by depressing the t ~ pes 3a in the cylinder. Consecutively, the control mesh dimensions 3 are activated from a selected mechanical or electronic device individually to a selected position. The decoration controls corresponding to the above description are known, for example, from documents DE-A1-23 64 138 or DE-AI 24 47 427. Shortly before the end of the retraction of the cutting elements 2 in one position inactive, the predetermined wool elements for losing the first wool yarn that are retracted, according to the trajectory P2 by means of cams acting on the stops 3a, later the stops of the needles (position VIII in figure 7). At this time, also shown in Figure 13, a first yarn of wool TI is fed to the wool elements located in the feeding position according to the trajectory Pl, furthermore these wool elements are retracted to an intermediate position as it is shown in figure 14 (position IX in figure 7) in which the hooks of the wool elements will control the woolen yarn TI, not affecting by this movement the previous action in the form of points of the tops of the needles Also to the position IX of Figure 7 a second yarn of wool T2, and if it provided a support yarn -G, it will be fed (figure 14): Immediately with the feeding of the second yarn of wool T2 the needles N begin their retraction for the action forming the point. The movement of the wool elements is performed simultaneously with the action forming the point of the needles, in a manner corresponding to the trajectories Pl, P2 and 1T of Figure 7, as shown in more detail in Figures 8a and 8b, or otherwise corresponding to paths Pll and P12 in Figure 7, as shown in the shaded lines and illustrated in detail in Figures 9a and 9b. Referring now to Figures 8a and 8b the second wool yarn T2 is engaged by the needle hooks and removed to the dial. Shortly before the wool yarn T2 near the wool elements 1, the predetermined wool elements for coupling the second wool yarn T2 rise corresponding to the trajectory P2. Such predetermined wool elements are all previous ones which have lost the first yarn of wool TI or, with respect to a further selection, at least a part of them. In Figure 8b the wool element 1/1 will begin to rise to engage the second wool yarn T2; the 1/3 wool element is already set to 'do this.
From Figure 15 an elevation of the wool element for coupling the second wool yarn T2 (1/1 in the shaded lines) will penetrate with its lp peaks in front of the first Ti yarn through the needle line. By this action the positioning shoulder ls will transfer to the IT wool yarn on the back of the raised wool such as the elements 1/3 as shown in Figure 16, according to the arrangement of the relevant needles and the wool elements in Figures 8a and 8b. At the same time the wool elements which have coupled the first yarn of wool TI (1/2; 1/4 in Figures 8a and 8b) are slightly retracted to avoid a coupling of the second yarn of wool T2 (Figure 17) and to ensure that yarn of wool T2 can slide over the retracted wool elements (such as 1/4 shown in Fig. 18) by means of this by controlling the position of the first yarn of wool TI. When the needles have passed the wool elements (subsequent to the needle N5 in Figure 8a) the trajectories Pl and P2 are joined to the path 1T and the wool elements and needles collectively retract for the formation of the point and the wool ( see, Figures 19, 20 and 21).
With the retraction of the wool elements 1 for wool formation it is possible to adjust the wool length according to the retracted position. On the other hand, by retracting the elements in the position of the wool formation, the relevant wool yarn is controlled inside the needle hooks (see Figure 19) and an opposite side effect will result. To obtain a regular planing the wool elements are activated corresponding to trajectories Pll and P12, which will continue the trajectories Pl and P2 when the needles have passed the wool elements (see, Figure 7, and Figures 9a and 9b) . Referring to Figures 9a and 9b the needles NI-N8 are activated identically as in Figures 8a and 8b. In contrast to the previous arrangement, the wool elements 1/11 1/18 are controlled in alternative positions of the wool elements 1/1 - 1/8 in figure 8b, to illustrate the different effects, with the wool elements 1 / 11, 1/13, 1/15 and 1/17 located to attach the first TI wool yarn. Generally, the treatment of the wool yarns and their separation is identical as described above. - When the second yarn of wool T2 brings the wool elements together with the needle NI (Figure 22) the wool element 1/12 begins to rise to couple the second yarn of wool T2. By this the peak of this wool element will penetrate through the needles in front of the first yarn of wool TI and will transfer this yarn of wool TI with the positioning shoulder ls on the back of the wool element 1/12. The position of the wool element 1/13, this element that controls the first yarn of wool TI on its hook, is slightly retracted (as shown in figure 23) so that the second yarn of wool T2 is prevented from entering the hook of the wool element 1/13. The position of the wool element 1/14 is arranged to couple the second yarn of wool T2 (Figure 24) while according to Figure 25 the hook of the needle N4 passes the wool elements by which the second yarn of wool T2 it is entangled in the hook of the wool element 1/14 and is controlled above the wool element 1/15 which has been attached to the first yarn of wool TI. In contrast to the control of the woolen elements corresponding to FIGS. 8a and 8b, in the present embodiment the woolen elements which have the second woolen yarn T2 attached remain in their raised position to which the other woolen elements are attached. now activated by the path Pll in Figure 9b. According to FIG. 26, the wool element 1/15 begins to rise up to the position of the wool element 1/16 which has the second wool thread T2 attached to it. All woolen elements which are not designated for coupling to the second woolen yarn T2 are raised to a collective position with all the other woolen elements (Figure 27) in which the woolen loops of the woolen yarns are taken out along the longitudinal axis of the needles. This occurs when the needle hooks have passed the wool elements according to the NT path. By this action the intertwined portions of the first contact of the woolen threads to the inner position of the needle hook while the unwoven wool portions of the woolen threads unite the fabric flange Dk of the dial which will arrange these portions in the needle hooks for regular planing. As is visible from the top views of Figures 8a and 9a, the needles N6 to N8 will weave the stitches of both yarns formed of wool by means of which the regular platen loops (representing a portion of supporting fabric); they are made of one of the threads on the flange of aial Dk, when the other thread is taken out of the wool loops, on the selected wool element. A fabric construction resulting from the process described in the foregoing is characterized by full wool density, with each point having a protruding wool, and an increased solidity of the woven wool in which the wool spikes of a yarn formed of wool protruding from adjacent points joined by a regular platen loop so evident from the arrangement of the threads in Figures 8a and 9a between the needles N6 to N8. (And illustrated also in Figure 1) • As is also evident from Figure 8a and Figure 9a only in the illustrated arrangement of alternatively wool formed from two of yarns, the first yarn of wool is arranged to the majority in one section of three needles (N2 to N4) in a similar wavy manner in front of and, respectively, behind the wool elements. The resulting tensioning of the first yarn for weaving and forming wool is insignificant and is canceled by mutual selection or alteration of the needles. At least theoretically, underneath this condition a support fabric woven from specific support yarn is not required. In practice, a production exclusively of woolen cloth of two woolen yarns, in which the alternation of a portion of the wool loops of a yarn to a portion of the other yarn is made by a point from which each woolen yarn protrudes with a wool spike, it can not have the tension or solidity required especially when the arrangement corresponds to the modality described in the foregoing. To improve the strength or tension of such a used fabric a specific support yarn is recommended. In woolen fabrics decorated an additional support yarn is not required, when upon alternation of the different sections of wool at least one platinum loop of both yarns of wool is provided which will ensure a sufficient strength of the fabric. (As illustrated in Figure 3) Again it was stated demonstratively that the separation of the wool yarns to form the loop and the unaffected feed of the yarns to the action formed of wool is the essential part of this invention. It follows from the foregoing description of the fabric construction that it is obvious that in the fabric with three woolen threads the restrictions with respect to the strength or tension of the fabric are eliminated. (As illustrated in figure 4).
When the fabric with three yarns formed of wool the process of handling the second and third yarns formed of wool is identical according to the treatment of the first and second yarns formed of wool in the above-described embodiment. Therefore, it is required that the first yarn of wool be arranged in a manner in which it is not affected by the actions of the wool elements by coupling the second and the third yarn formed of wool. The requirements for an unaffected movement of the first yarn of wool from the feed to the point and the formed actions of wool are visible from Figures 28a and 29. The upper portion of the rotating wool element 11/1 moves or swings with the first Til wool yarn towards dial D so that the wool yarn Til moves behind the backs of all those woolen elements 11/11 staying in a vertical or unbalanced portion. Referring to Figures 28a and 28b, the wool element 11 is joined with an intermediate mesh 4, with a peak 4m arranged in a housing of the wool element 11. The intermediate mesh dimensions 4 are activated collectively by the stop 4b or individually of the control mesh dimensions 5 that are arranged and operate with stops 5a and 5b that correspond to the previous mode. The peaks llh and llk of the wool element 11 cooperate with the peak 4n on the intermediate mesh height 4, respectively, with an oriented cam Ch. Figure 30 illustrates the movement of the needles along the path TN (see from the surface) and the horizontal (balanced) movement of the wool elements in the Tpl (rotating or balanced) and Tp / A (vertical) trajectories. Also from the surface the movement of the constant elements is shown and its trajectory is indicated by 2t. From the front, the trajectories of the wool elements 11, and the intermediate and the control mesh dimensions (4 and 5) are shown in FIG. The trajectory 11T represents the movement of the woolen elements 11 and is divided, corresponding to the process, into the trajectories UTa, 11T1, 11T2 and 11T3. The trajectory of the stops 4b of the intermediate mesh height 4 is shown in trajectories T4, T4a, T4 / 1, T4 / 2 and T4 / 3. - The stops 5a of the control mesh dimensions 5 move according to the trajectories TA, TA / 1, TA / 2 and TA / 3, correspond to an opposite arrangement of the stops 5b which moves according to the trajectories TB and Tba. The full lines on the trajectories TA or TB represent protruding stops, the shaded lines representing the oppressed stops which move indirectly by movements activated on the other stop or from the stop 4b of the intermediate mesh level 4. The weaving process in this mode it begins identically with the process described above. The needles are raised to the release position and the wool elements are retracted to tension the wool loops (compare Figure 10). Subsequently, the needles are retracted to a feeding position and the wool elements are raised to a cutting position (compare figure 11) in which they will remain close to the end of the cutting action (compare Figure 12) of the cutting elements. . Simultaneously with the cutting action, the control mesh levels 5 are reinitiated and divided. An action cam now on the stops 5b will also retract the intermediate mesh height 4 and the corresponding wool elements 11 to an inactive position according to the trajectories TBa, T4a and llTa in which the peaks of the wool elements 11 are arranged in the line or later the stops of the needles N (Figure 31) while the other wool elements 11 are controlled or joined in a feeding position (the path 11T1) to attach a first yarn of wool Til the which is fed in the position XXVI of Figure 30 and also shown in Figure 31. After feeding the yarn Til the raised wool elements 11 are retracted on the stops 4b to an intermediate position according to the trajectories T4 / 1 and 11T1. For this action, as well as in the previous retraction of all the wool elements that lose the first wool yarn Til (for example 11/11, the tips llh of the wool element and the tips 4n of the intermediate mesh dimensions 4 that remain separated each other and therefore not joined together, as shown by the shaded lines of the intermediate mesh dimensions 4 in Figures 28a and 29. By lifting the previously retracted intermediate mesh dimensions 4 (T4a) the tips 4n will overlap. and will couple the tips llh of the cooperating wool elements (losing the first yarn of wool Til) as shown in full lines in Figures 28a and 29 and will control and retain such additional elements in a vertical position.; cal (11/11).
Simultaneously with the retraction of the wool elements with the first wool yarn the control mesh dimensions are reinitiated and divided for the subsequent action. When the wool elements, with the woolen yarn Til, have approached their intermediate position approximately according to the position XXVII in Figure 30, the cutting elements 2 move slightly towards the dial. The compression of the cutting elements 2 against the wool elements 11 rotates the wool elements 11 which are coupled to the first wool yarn Til, and which are not controlled at this time in a vertical position by the superposition of the tips llh and 4n, also towards the dial (for example the woolen element 11/1 in figure 28a), so that the first woolen thread Til can move without affecting the wool formation and the weaving action between the woolen elements of Turn and vertical (Figure 32). Consecutively the predetermined wool elements 11/11 lifted by activating a cam on the stops 5a according to the trajectories TA / 2, T4 / 2 and 11T2 in a feeding position (position XXVII in Figure 30) and then feeding a second woolen yarn T12 (Figure 33) these predetermined woolen elements 11/11 retracted to an intermediate position by activating a cam on the stops 11b of the wool elements so that the overlapping arrangement of the tips 4n and llh remain, for example, as previously discussed for the woolen element 11/11 in Figure 28. Additionally, the retention of the cam Ch will cover the tip llk of the woolen elements 11/11 which are not attached to the first woolen thread Til (see Figure 29). As illustrated in Figures 29 and 34 the first and second yarns of Til wool, T12 are separated and can be moved to the weaving action and form wool without affecting by previous actions. Simultaneously with the retraction of the woolen elements which are coupled to the second woolen yarn T12, the control mesh heights 5 are reinitiated and divided to couple a third woolen yarn T13. The woolen yarn T13 is immediately fed prior to the retraction of the needles N to the position IXXX in Fig. 30 so that the woolen yarn T13 is quickly coupled by the needle hooks and controlled to the dial. The weaving and wool-forming action is illustrated in detailed form corresponding to section XXX, in figure 30, in figure 35a where the needles and wool elements are shown from above, and in figure 35b where the same portion It is shown from the front. The additional lateral views of the needles N13 to N16, which cooperate with the wool elements, are shown in Figures 36 to 39. According to the TA / 3 trajectory the selected control mesh dimensions 5 with the intermediate mesh dimensions Cooperators 4 and woolen elements 11/11 are raised from their inactive position to a coupling position as illustrated by wool element 11/3 in Figure 35a, 35b and 36. By this movement the second woolen yarn T12 it is arranged on the back of the raised wool element 11/3 and will remain on the back of the wool element 11/3 for a distance or space preferably of up to three needle positions. If the woolen elements are provided to alternately engage the second (T12) and third (T13) woolen yarns, the second woolen yarn T12 is arranged in a similar wavy manner as described in the above embodiments. (As illustrated in Figure 8a, respectively 9a with the wool yarn Ti). At the same time the wool elements with the first yarn Til and the second woolen yarn T12 are slightly retracted (for example, woolen elements 11/4 and 11/5 in Figure 35b, 36, 37, and 38). ) so that the portions of the woolen yarn T13 are not attached by the wool elements that will pass with the needle hooks over these slightly retracted wool elements as shown for the woolen element 11/5 in Figure 35b. As well, the portions of yarn by means of the wool yarn T12 are not coupled from the wool elements that will pass with the needle hooks on top of the wool elements which are attached to the first yarn of wool Til. When the needle hooks have retracted into the dial and past the wool elements, the wool elements with the first wool yarn Til (woolen element 11/6 in Figure 35a, 35b and 38) are rotated in the from behind in a vertical position by the cam Cp (Figure 40, 41, 42) and are supported by an upward movement of the cutting elements (see trajectory Tpl in Figure 30). Simultaneously, the woolen elements which are not coupled to the third woolen yarn T13 are lifted by the stops of the woolen elements 11, so that the wool formation is carried out along the longitudinal axis of the needles to perform a plating correct or regular.
It is manifested from the first modality that wool elements can also be retracted for the formation of wool through which an inverse plating would result. (See Figure 8b). The balanced or rotational movement of the wool elements which are coupled to the first wool yarn in the back to a vertical position as illustrated in Figures 40 to 43. The retraction of the wool element 11/1 as along the trajectory 11T1 respectively 11T2 which engages the first yarn Til in section XXX of Figure 30, is performed by retracting the cam Cr, acting on the projecting ridge llr of the wool element (Figure 29). The woolen elements 11/11, which are coupled to the second woolen yarn T12 or lose all the woolen yarns, are retracted by the stops 5b (Figure 30) by means of the trajectory Tbm in Figure 30. They are controlled in the vertical position retaining the cam Ch (Figures 40, 41), cooperating with the tip llk (Figure 41). Simultaneously with the elevation of the wool elements previously retracted 11/1 and 11/11 by lifting the cam Cl, shown in figures 41, 42 acting on the stop 4b, as a hooked cam Cp that will act on the protruding parts of the Rotating wool elements 11/1 (Figures 40-42), so that they are balanced in the back in a vertical position when the action forming a point starts in which all the elements of wool 11 are controlled by the cam Cg (Figure 43). From the description of all the above embodiments it is obvious that the present invention provides an optimal approach for manufacturing velor-type fabrics by associating the proposals for separating the woolen loops according to Patent EP-A2-0 082 538, respectively U.S. Patent No. US 4,592,212 and the application of German Patent 195 18 490.4. However wool fabrics with regular loop structure can also be manufactured. This was done through the additional use of well-known proposals. As is known from different methods, woolen fabrics interlaced according to the invention were made by arranging an insurance on the previously described wool elements. The locks open at the beginning of a weaving cycle and subsequently in an additional section the wool elements are lifted, the loops of wool are released from the locks and, after the retraction of the woolen elements, the loops of wool they are released from wool elements (note, for example, German Patent Application 27 04 295). To prevent further movement of the wool elements for the released wool loops it is also possible to use the wool elements with hooks located towards the dial, for example, as proposed in US Patent 4,043,151. For the embodiment of the present invention such elements must be modified and improved as described in the following modalities. As illustrated in the simplified cross section of a circular knitting machine in Figure 44 the hooked elements 21 are arranged in the cylinder C. As shown by wool elements 21, the hooks forming the wool are characterized by a 21p pick which proceeds in a zigzag alternation towards the dial relative to the inner arc of the hook to support the splitting and control of the woolen threads and by an inclined positioning shoulder 21s which slopes away from the dial and extends from the peak 21p opposite the Hook opening. The wool elements 21 have on their inner side, facing the row, a housing R cooperating with a tip 22n of intermediate mesh dimensions 22, which can activate the wool elements in a longitudinal direction in association with an arrangement of selection analogous to the illustration and description of the previous modality. The complete arrangement of the wool elements 21, the intermediate mesh dimensions 22 and the control mesh dimensions, similar to 5 in Figure 28b, is collectively controllable by the stop 21b of the wool element which is further rotated by the stop 21d when it cooperates with a hooked PC cam. The arrangement of the needles N and its movement to weave a complete course is performed in a similar manner as described for the previous modalities. In Figure 45 the required movements of the needles N and the wool elements 21 to weave a smooth course with wool loops alternately of two wool yarns is illustrated. The needles N move along the path Tn, from the right to the left, while the wool elements 21 move according to the trajectories P21, P21a and P21b, respectively. When the needles N are raised to a released position the wool elements 21 are arranged in an inactive position. Immediately with the release of the insurance points a stretch of the previous woven loops of wool can be performed. Simultaneously with this action the control mesh dimensions are reinitiated and divided. The needles N are now retracted to a feeding position and all those wool elements 21 predetermined or selected to attach one of the two woolen yarns are raised to a feeding position as indicated in Figure 45 as the position Fl in the which the wool yarn T21 is fed (figure 46). Prior to the feeding position of T21 the control mesh dimensions of the raised wool elements and the intermediate mesh dimensions lifted are divided so that the predetermined wool elements 21 for coupling the first wool yarn T21 are retracted to along the path P21a to an intermediate position as shown in figure 44. The upper end of the remaining woolen elements 21r are simultaneously rotated or balanced upwardly away from the dial by the operation of the PC operation (PERSONAL COMPUTER ) of the cam hooked on the stops 21d (Figure 44).
According to Figure 47 the second wool yarn T22 is fed to the rotating or balanced woolen elements 21r, corresponding to the position F2 in figure 45, subsequently also these woolen elements are retracted, preferably by the stops 21b (the trajectory P21B in Figure 45), to an intermediate position as shown in Figure 48. As illustrated therein the second woolen yarn T22 is correctly arranged at the rear of the woolen elements 22 which control the first wool yarn T21, which is exactly separated from the second wool yarn T22 by the rotary movement of the predetermined woolen elements 21r. Following the position of the woolen elements with the second woolen yarn T22, the fabric and wool-forming action according to section K in Figure 45 is initiated by retracting the needles N on the dial (Figure 49). By this the rotational position of the woolen elements 21r with the second woolen yarn T22 is zero, which is the rotating woolen element 21r is swung in the rear part to a vertical condition in a position of the woolen element 21 (Figure 50), and a slight retraction of the wool elements 21 securing the yarn portions of the woolen yarn T22, designed to weave a regular support fabric portion, can pass on the upper part of the woolen elements 21 controlling the first wool yarn T21 (as shown in figure 51). They are taken in cooperation with the p formed by the wool loops alternately from one of the woolen threads T21 respectively T22 (Figure 52). The wool elements can be activated in the wool formation process according to different requirements in different variations. When the length of the loops is adjusted by retracting the wool elements 21 on the stops 21b, or comparable stops on the intermediate mesh dimensions, the position of the cam recess will specify a uniform loop length. The same if simultaneously with the action forming the loop a hooked cam rotates the wool elements to a predetermined balanced position. The retraction of the wool elements by means of the cooperating intermediaries and the control mesh dimensions allow, in addition to the alternate wool formation of two wool yarns, for example T21 and T22 the adjustment of the wool loop to two different lengths. According to the above description, the selection of the wool elements to retract the wool elements with a first wool yarn T21 will also remain for the action forming the loop. With a different position of the action of retractable cams on the stops 5a or 5b of the control mesh dimensions 5 the length of the loop of each loop thread is individually adjustable. If the different loop lengths of both wool yarns are requested subsequent to the retraction of the wool elements with the first yarn of wool 21, the control mesh dimensions must be reinitiated and divided according to the predetermined length of the loops, the which is done by the different position of the activation of the retractable cams on the stops of the control mesh dimensions. An alternative to the embodiment described in the above is illustrated in the arrangement of the wool elements and the intermediate mesh dimensions in Figure 53 and their movements according to Figure 54. It can be located adjacent to a hooked portion 31h of the end lower of the wool elements 31 a housing is formed in which a hooked portion 32h of an intermediate mesh dimension 32. The spout 32n of the intermediate chain dimension 32 is activated in a housing along the wool element 31, which can be activated on the stops 31b and rotatably by the stops 31d when in cooperation with the cam engaged as described in the preceding preceding mode. The selective movements of the levels of intermediate mesh 32 and wool elements 31 are controlled from an array according to Figure 28b. The straight wool elements 31 are selectively lifted from their intermediate mesh dimensions 32 in a feeding position (illustrated in figure 53 in shaded lines). Prior to the feeding of a first wool yarn T31 these elements are rotated or are balanced by a cam action hooked on the stops 31d (trajectory P31a of Figure 54) to a position 31r before the retracted intermediate mesh dimensions, so that the hooks 32h of the intermediate mesh dimensions engage in the portion of the unhooked hook 31h of the wool elements 31r which are then retracted in this arrangement, as illustrated in figure 53 in the full lines, by the intermediate mesh dimensions. Figure 54 illustrates the movements of the wool elements and needles to weave a course of the woolen fabric intertwined with two woolen yarns T31 and T32. The trajectory Tn for the needles is identical with the movement of the needle in the four sets of the previous embodiment with reference to Figure 45. When the needles are raised to the released position of the woolen elements 31 they are retracted according to the P31 path to tension the previous woven loops of wool. Subsequently, the wool elements 31 are raised to an inactive position simultaneously with the retraction of the needles N to a feeding position. Previously, the control mesh dimensions 5 will have been reinitiated and divided so that according to the path P31a the wool elements that are raised to a feeding position are selected. Simultaneously, the selected high wool elements are rotatable or balanced (with its upper ends) outward, so that the position Fll a first yarn of wool T31 feeds the rotating woolen elements 31r (Figure 55). As described above the wool elements 31r will remain in the rotated or balanced position when they are retracted to an intermediate position without the support of a cam hooked from the hooks 32h remaining engaged with the hook portions unhooked from the hook 31h as explained in the above.
Prior to the retraction of. the raised woolen elements 31r, the control mesh dimensions remaining in an inactive position can additionally be divided so that all or a part of the cooperating wool elements 31 rise according to the path 31b in Figure 54. It is Figure 55 shows that woolen yarn T31 is moved from the back of the woolen elements 31 that are raised on the hooks of the retracting woolen elements 31r (Figure 56). When the wool elements 31, moved according to the trajectory 31b, are in the feeding position a second wool yarn T32 is fed into the hooks of the wool elements 31 in the position F12 of Figure 54. The elements raised wool 31 will also be controlled on the wool yarn T31 on its back in the hooks of wool elements 31r (Figure 56). Subsequently, the wool elements 31 are retracted to an intermediate position (analogous to Figure 48) and the weaving and wool-forming action is initiated as described in the previous embodiment (Figure 49 to 52). In such a way that the rotating position of the woolen elements 31r is canceled, so that they return to a vertical or unbalanced position, by an adequate elevation of the intermediate mesh dimensions 32. The manufacture of three-wire loop structures of Wool is made when both modalities described above are jointly joined. This is illustrated in Fig.57. In order to realize a woolen fabric interlaced with three woolen yarns mainly an arrangement of needles and woolen elements as illustrated in Figure 53 is provided where the woolen elements 31 are rotated or balanced in a medium and in a frontal position by a proper arrangement of the fulcrum. The weaving process as shown in Figure 57 begins with the raising of the needles N according to the trajectory Tn in a released position in which the wool elements are cooperatively retracted to the tension of the previously woven loops of wool ( trajectory P41). Simultaneously, a selection is made so that the predetermined wool elements are lifted and rocked or turned to a frontal position according to the trajectory P41a. In position F21 in Figure 57 the first wool yarn T41 is fed into the relevant wool elements. Subsequently, the intermediate mesh dimensions are retracted so that they are hooked on the balanced wool elements (analogous to Figure 53) and the wool elements cooperating with the wool yarn T41 are positioned in an intermediate position. Simultaneously, those vertically or unbalanced woolen elements that remain in an inactive position are lifted to a feeding position or a selected part of such woolen elements if a division is desired and will include all the wool elements that respectively engage, second or third wool yarn (T42, T43). To these raised woolen elements, in position F22 in Fig. 57, the second woolen yarn T42 is fed. In addition an additional selection will ensure that only the predetermined wool elements, provided to interlace the second wool yarn T42, are retracted with the woolen yarn T42 to an intermediate position according to the trajectory P41b. At the same time a hooked cam acting on a pressing stop of the unbalanced wool elements that remain in the feeding position will rotate or balance these wool elements according to the trajectory P41C in a medium of balanced position in which the third wool yarn T43 is fed, as indicated at position F23 in figure 57.
Consecutively, these woolen elements are also retracted to an intermediate position and the interlacing and weaving action is started in the same manner as described above. It will be clearly seen that all the modalities presented herein described, that the greatest capacity in manufacturing woolen fabrics according to the present invention is obtained when all the needles in the dial are activated uniformly for weaving. It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that diverging from the described modalities the wool yarns can also be coupled by the predetermined needles, preferably alternating, for example analogously to the relevant proposals referred to in the introduction of the present application. As is generally known, it is necessary to arrange at least two groups of needles and to manipulate the groups of needles in relation to each other according to a predetermined succession of weaving stations. If the wool threads are woven from the needles (alternate) predetermined to the points, the movement of the needles will be identical to the modalities referred to. As is known in the art a bonded structure of the yarns of lar.a is obtained by lifting the coupling needles to the folded position, which is identical to and will be replaced as the feeding position in the modes. Therefore, in contrast to the previous modes, when the needles have been raised to their released position, as shown by the path Tn, the needles are raised to a fold or feeding position and will remain in that position while the process, It performs according to one of the modalities. Subsequently, an additional weaving process is required to weave a support fabric of at least one support yarn. If the base supporting the needles is additionally equipped with platens (according to German Patent Publication No. 27 04 295) all the needles can be raised to a released position and will weave a full course, otherwise suspended alternative needles from the previous wool-forming processes are raised and then the floating fabric stitches, which overlap the fold points of the wool threads, will prevent the wool threads from moving consecutively with the raising of the needles. With the exception of the modalities in which the wool loops are separated in the weaving machine (Figures 6 to 43), in which the needles must be arranged in a dial and the wool elements in a cylinder, the arrangement of the needles and the wool elements may be alternative in one of the two cooperating bases for the woven interlaced structures. If the needles are supported on a cylinder and the wool elements on the dial an additional adjustment of the length of wool is allowed by altering the spacing between the dial and the cylinder. An impression of such an arrangement was made by rotating the drawings of Figures 44, 46 to 53 and 55, 56 clockwise by 90 °. While the invention has been described around which are currently considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiments, it is understood that the invention is not limited to the described modalities, on the contrary, it is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims. It is noted that in relation to this date, the best method known to the applicant to carry out the aforementioned invention, is the conventional one for the manufacture of the objects or products to which it refers. Having described the invention as above, property is claimed as contained in the following:
