Definitions

  • My invention relates to a new and. improved composite fabric and method of combining a previously woven base material with a knitting process to produce a composite fabric of a formation and thickness not to be had by any method heretofore known.
  • the invention relates to a method wherein the formation of the process is governed by one thread or yarn feeding device for each needle used.
  • one thread or yarn feeding device for each needle used.
  • One object of the present invention is to produce a composite fabric and method whereby that part of the knitting which is connected by cross threads or yarns and lies on the side of the I base material opposite that on which the chainloops lie, will be formed by a looping and drawing of the stitching threads or yarns in interlooped loop formations, so that more than one face of the fabric opposite that on which the single thickness thread or yarn chain-loops lie.
  • Fig. 1 is an enlarged diagrammatic view of a I portion of a fabric embodying my present invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a view similar to Fig. 1, showing a modification of the same.
  • l and 2 designate the threads or yarns which are knit through the base fabric.
  • the base fabric is composed of warp threads 3 and weft threads 4 woven together, preferably as an open mesh or net fabric.
  • Each thread or yarn is so knit as to form a row including a chain having loops 5, which loops all lie on the same side or face of the base fabric; each thread or yarn 2 is also knit to form a chain having loops -6, which loops all lie on the same side or face of the base fabric as do the loops 5.
  • the rows of two adjacent threads or yarns are connected through the base fabric by thickness of thread or yarn is looped on the'55 interlooped loops 1 and 8 which are spaced apart from one another longitudinally and transversely at predetermined distances.
  • the interloops I, 8 lie between adjacent rows of loops 5 and 6, but on the opposite face of the base fabric, and are connected together by portions of the threads or yarns I, 2 which lie on the same side of the base fabric as do the interloops 1 and 8.
  • the interloops 1 and 8 are drawn together into the form of knots and shall be hereinafter referred to as knot-like elements.
  • the drawing together of the loops 1 and 8 causes the chain loops 5 and 6 to assume inclinations which give the chains a zigzag appearance.
  • the loops 5 and 6 of adjacent chains alternately converge and diverge.
  • the loops 5 and 6 are each crossed by at least two weft threads 4, while at least one warp thread underlies the rows of knot-like elements 1, 8.
  • elongated hole may be formed in the fabric by not cross-connecting certain interlooped loops, but effecting longitudinal connections only between certain interloops 1, 8 and 1 8 (as shown in Fig. 2) by th thread portions 2*, I.
  • a composite fabric wherein a woven base fabric is embedded in a knit fabric the improvement which comprises an open-mesh woven fabric and a knit fabric composed'of a plurality of rows of chains of loops lying on one face of the woven fabric, the chains of adjacent rows being interlocked at intervals by knot-like connections lying on the other face of the woven fabric and spaced intermediate the rows of loops, the loops of each chain running zigzag, the loops of one chain inclining in an opposite direction from those of adjacent chains, said knot-like connections lying in parallel longitudinal and transverse rows, those of one row being stepped with respect to those of adjacent rows, the knot like elements of a row being cross-connected to those of the adjacent rows by threads lying on the same face of the woven fabric as the knot-like elements.
  • a composite fabric wherein a woven fabric is embedded in a knit fabric the improvement which comprises an open-mesh woven fabric through which the knitting takes place, and knitting comprising, on one face of the woven fabric, a plurality of longitudinally disposed chains of loops, the loops of which run zigzag, the chains being laterally spaced apart, and, on the other face of the woven fabric, a plurality of longitudinally and transversely disposed rows of knotlike elements connected through the woven fabric to the loop of the chains and themselves being cross-connected by threads lying over said other face of the woven fabric.
  • a knit fabric composed of a plurality of longitudinally disposed rows of chains of loops, the chains being spaced apart and the loops of the respective chains lying in zigzag paths, those of one row being directed op ositely to those in the adjacent rows, said rows of chains lying under the woven fabric, the threads forming the loops of a chain passing through the woven fabric to the other face thereof and being inter-knit with those of the adjacent chains, the inter-knit portions being cross-connected by threads lying over the woven fabric, the'interknit portions lying over the woven fabric and being disposed in spaced-apart longitudinal and transverse rows.
  • a composite fabric wherein a woven fabric is embedded in a knit fabric the improvement which comprises a plurality of rows chains of loops, the loops of each chain lying zigzag fashion, with the loops of a chain alter nately approaching and diverging from those of adjacent chains, the threads of the several loops where the loops join being passed through the Woven fabric to the opposite face of the woven fabric and there inter-knit with corresponding threads of adjacent chains to form rows of knotlike elements, said knot-like elements being arranged in longitudinal and transverse rows spaced apart, and cross-connecting threads joining said knot-like elements of one row to those of the adjacent rows, thereby providing substantial air spaces through the composite fabric.
  • a composite fabric wherein a fabric is knit through a base fabric the improvement which comprises a loosely woven base fabric, a plurality of rows of single-thread chain loops transversely spaced apart on one face of the base fabric and a plurality of spaced-apart interlooped loops on the other face of the base fabric connected together over said other face by single threads, whereby the lay of the threads on said other face of the base fabric is greater than that on said one face of the same.
  • a composite fabric wherein a woven fabric is embedded in a knit fabric the improvement which comprises a woven fabric, a plurality of parallel rows of chains of loops, each chain being constructed throughout its length of a length of thread distinct from the others, the threads of adjacent chains passing through the woven fabric at spaced intervals and there being interlooped to form knot-like elements on the face of the fabric opposite that on which the chain loops lie.
  • a method of making a composite fabric comprising knitting through a base fabric to form, by separate threads, spaced rows of chains having each of their links lying on one face of the base fabric, and having loops lying on the other face of the base fabric, the loops of one row of chains being interlooped alternately with those of adjacent chains, each loop of a chain being connected with each other loop of the same chain by a portion of the thread of that chain which lies over the base fabric.
  • the improved method which consists in knitting a plurality of chains each from an individual thread so that the links of the chains all lie on one side of the woven fabric, taking portions of the threads of the chains and forming the same into loops'on the other side of the woven fabric, interlooping the loops of adjacent chains, and connecting the interlooped loops together over the said other face of the woven fabric by portions of the same threads that formed the loops and links of the chains.
