RIBBED KNITTED WEB AND MAIUNG SAME.
neeageea,
Specification of Letters latent.
Application filed April 28, 1910.
Patented Feb. 117, 1914i. Serial No. 558,225.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that it, Bonner XV. SCOTT, a citizen of the United States, residing at Leeds Point, Atlantic county, New Jersey, have invented certain Improvements in Ribbed Knitted Webs and in Making Same, of which the following is a specification.
My invention consists of a novel form of .ribbed knitted Web and a novel method. of
In Fig. l of the drawing, :0 represents the' wales of one face of the web and 3 the 'wales of the other face of the same, the distinctive feature of the web being" that the jrcourses of stitches are staggered, successive stitches of the same yarn being pro duced in different courses of the web, thus, on reference to Fig. it, it will be noted that the yarn m which produces stitches in.
courses 1, 3 and 5 of the wales a), produces stitches in courses 2, %l and (l of the wales 51 and the yarn m which produces stitches in courses 1, 3 and of the wales 3 produces stitches in courses 2, land ti of the wales the result being that the sinker wales cross 'rom walc to wale, but in passing'froin course to course.
In knittingthe fabric shown in Fig. l, I use a machine having two sets of needles A and B, the needles A being mounted in a; needle cylinder, needle bed or other needle carrier, and being combined with means whereby they may be operated so as to cause them to knit, and the needles B being mounted in a needle dial, needle bed or other needle carrier and combined with means for causing them to knit in such manner that they will draw stitches in acdifierent direc- I tion from that in which the stitches are drawn by the needles A, so as to produce a ribbed fabric, it being understood that my invention is applicable to straight knitting machines or to circular knitting machines, and to machines usin either spring heard or latch needles.
Alternating with needle-set are loop receiving and transferring pins or points a and alternating; with the needles B are similar pins or points 7), the points of one carrier being, by preference, in line with the needles of the other -arrier, and these points being so actuated that they may be caused either to receive a loop of yarn, or to transfer it to the opposed needle.
In producing the improved web, the yarn .m is first laid onto the needles A and points a and drawn into stitches by said needles A, the other yarn m being at the same time, or subsequently, laid upon the needles B and points 7), and drawn into stitches by the needles 1%, after which the points a transfer their loops to the needles B, and the points Z) transfer their loops to the needles A, and these loops are drawn into stitches by knocklug-over upon them the stitches already. upon the needles, these operations being then repeated.
If it is desired to produce one or more uniform courses of stitches between the staggered courses. the transfer points a and b will be held in a retracted position at the food or feeds where said uniform courses are being; produced, and if it is desired to alternate. portions of my improved web with portions of ordinary knitted web. the trans for points will be employed only in those portions of the needle carriers where the inniroved web is to be produced.
'lhe stitches which are produced from a loop of yarn laid directly upon the needles dill er in size from the stitches produced by the transferred loops, thus providing for an alternation of large and small stitches in the wales and courses of the web.
My intention lends itself to the production of line gage ribbed webs, owing to the fact that the needles in each carrier may be courses of interlocked rib knitting, my ilnproved fabric resembling the interlocked ribbed fabric of my Letters Patent No.
899,439, dated September 22, 1908, with the additional features of having the sinker wales crossed in passing from course to course and the alternation of large and small stitches in the wales of the web.
The fabric shown in Fig. 1 is what is termed a one-and-one rib, the ribs on each face of the web being formed by single needle Wales, but it will be evident that other forms of rib may be produced by alternating the transfer points with groups of needles in either carrier, depending upon the character of rib desired.
,For the purpose of facilitating production, I prefer to use, in the knitting machine, a plurality of yarn feeds so as to produce successive courses knitted with diiferent yarns, but my improved fabric can be knitted with one and the same yarn by first operating the needles and loop-holding points of one needle carrier to produce thereon a course of stitches with intervening loops, and then permitting the needles and loop holders of this carrier to remain quiescent while knitting a course of stitches with intervening loops by the needles and loop holdersof the other carrier, and then transferring the loops of one carrier to the needles of the other carrier and knocking over them the stitches on said needles, and then repeating the operations.
Although in carrying out my invention, I prefer to use transfer points or pins, transferring needles, such for instance as those shown in my Letters Patent 834,763, dated October 30, 1906, may be substituted there for, if desired.
I claim:
1. A ribbed knitted web having the same number of stitches in each wale and successively formed stitches in a course disposed in one course plane in some of the needle wales and in the plane of an adjoining course in needle wales alternating therewith.
2. A ribbed knitted web having successively formed stitches in a course disposed in one course plane in some of the needle wales and in another course plane iii-needle wales alternating therewith, and having sinker wales crossed between adjoining needle wales.
3. A ribbed knittedweb having wales in which successive stitches are composed of different yarns, each wale having the same number of stitches and. successively formed stitches of a course being disposed in one course plane in some of the needle wales and in the plane of an adjoining course in the intervening needle wales.
4. A ribbed knitted web having wales in which successive stitches are composed of different yarns, successively formed stitches of a course being disposed in one course plane in some of the needle wales and in another course plane in the intervening needle Wales, and having'sinker wales crossing each other between adjoining needle wales.
5. A single ribbed knitted web having the same number of stitches in each Wale and successively formed stitches in a course disposed in one course plane in some of the needle wales and in the plane of an adjoining course in needle wales alternating therewith, the stitches of a course which lie in one course plane differing insize from the stitches of the course which lie in the other course plane.
6. A ribbed knitted web having needle wales in which large and small stitches alternate, successively formed stitches of a course occupying one course plane in some of the needle wales and the plane of an adjoining course in intervening needle wales.
7 The niode herein described of producing a ribbed knitted web, said mode consisting in disposing a knitting yarn or yarns to form a course of stitches and intervening loops drawn in one direction, and another course of stitches and intervening loops drawn in another direction, and alternating respectively with the stitches and loops of the first course, and then drawing the loops of one course through the stitches of the other course.
In testimony whereof, I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
