KINETED STATES PATENT @FFICE LOUIS HI-RSCH, OF EVERGREEN, NEW YORK.
new or MAKING HOSIERY.
- Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Feb, 11,1913.
Application filed April 3, 1911. Serial No. 618,515.
The general object of my invention is to.
provide a novel mode for uniting a. stocking welt with a stocking leg so as to effectually guard .against raveling of fabric when aladder or run starting in the welt and of its extending beyond the same.
Hitherto as the welts of stockings have been fabricated on a knitting machine as a part of the leg, when garters were applied thereto, owing to undue straln upon the threads of the fabric thereof, they constantly have been found to part or ravel which not only affected the welt but also impaired the leg of the stocking to such an extent, as practically to render the same useless.
invention is to avoid the above defined objectionable feature constantly occurring in the use of hosiery, and to provide a stocking having a welt in which if raveling occurs will be confined to the welt of the stocking alone.
The nature and scope of my present invention will be more fully understood from the following description taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, showing several well defined methods for the knittin and completing of the welt as part of the degof a stocking, in which- Figure 1, is a plan view of sinker formed jloops interlaced with needle formed loops and a hook-frame to manually hold the first course of sinker loops away from the needles during regular knitting of the welt and also other manipulations of the said hookframe. Fig. 2, is a side elevational view, in detail of the sinker formed loops of Fig. 1,..held together out of action of the needles on the hook-frame and also showing a needle formed loop held on the needleshank. Fig. 3, is a view in perspective, diagrammatically of a series of bearded needles with loops on the needle-shanks out of range of the beards of said needles and also the loops formed on the same needles, but
Hence, the principal object of my present transferred to other needles of the series of the bed by means of yarn or by action of needles alone,'to provide a certain interlacing where the welt joins the leg ofthe stocking. Fig. 4, isa sectional elevational view of elements employed in ,a flat bar knitting machine to effect the method of Figs. 5 and 6, one of the bearded needles with yarn in connection therewith being shown, and also loops held on the shank of 'te needle so that when two sinker loops a e caught under the beard of the needle with a new yarn the loop on the needleshank will be cast over the three loops to become interlaced. Fig. 5, is an elevational View, in detail of the completed result, of Fig. 4:, showing the welt and character of interlacing of the yarn where the welt joins the leg: and Fig. 6, is an-enlar d view of three sinker loops interlaced-w1th yarn by needles according to the method of Fig. 4. Referring to the drawings a, is oneof a series of needles having beards a a is yarn manipulated by the needles.
b, is a movable sinker having a nose b 0, is a presser-bar underneath the sinker b. d, is a knocking off bit arranged below the Presser-bar and adapted to be acted upon to hold a loop formed by a sinker'onthe' needle-bar away from a loop formed by a needle on the needle-bar, either above or below the nose of a sinker b.
In Fig. 3, a mode is illustrated of trans-- purpose of which is to enable thereby a staggered interlocking of the yarn and loops where the welt forms the leg of the stocking, thereby efi'ectually preventing in the event of raveling of t e welt it extending into the leg to thusimpair the usefulness of the stocking.
In Figs. 1,2, 4, 5 and 6, is illustrated a mode of providing an additional interlacing of loops manually by drawing off the first course of sinker-loops f, onto a hook-frame 6. Continuing then plain. knitting for two courses, and when the third course of sinker loops F, are formed, placingthe same over the first course of loops f, of the hook-frame e, and again continuing plain knitting until the welt is completed. The two sinker formed loops f and f held by the hookframe e, are then placed over the bearded needles a, and loops f and P, of the yarn o are caught under the beards of the said needles a, and passed through the needle loops f and then cast off to complete the interlaced looping as illustrated in Fig. 5, where the completed welt 10, joins the leg of the stocking 12. The character of inter lacing of the loops at such point is clearly shown at 14, in Figs. 2 and 5. v 4
It will be seen from the foregoing description that sinker loops held by the needle-bars out of action of theneedles a, are not replaced on the same needles in which they were formed, but preferably certain adjoining needles of the course of needles, for example, as indicated in dotted outline in Fig. 3, to provide a staggered relationship of'the sinker and needle loops in their interlacing.
Having thus described the nature and objects of my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent is 1. The method of forming a welt on a flat bar knitting machine, which consists in manually drawing off the first course of sinker loops, in then continuing plain knitting for two courses, in then lmitting a third course of sinker loops and placing over the first course of loops, in then knitleg of the stocking.
ting plain fabric until thewelt is completed, the two sinker formed loops held, as described, being placed over the bearded needles. and the loops of yarn caught underthe beards of said needles and passed then through said needle loops, and in then casting ofl to complete the interlaced looping where the completed welt unites with the 2. The method of forming awelt on a flatbar knitting machine, which consists in transferring sinker loops onto needles located two or more -spaces away fromthe needles betweenwhich the said loops were formed in knit-ting fabric, in then returning to needles inaction the said sinker formed loops and drawing such loops then through the last knit course of the fabric, and in then knitting further courses through the said loops for the formation of the body of the fabricated article. i
In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my signature in the presence of two subscribing witnesses. I LOUIS HIRSCH.
