Definitions

  • the present invention relates to seamless stockings, half hose, socks and the like, knitted in the leg and sole with a half cardigan or a combination of half cardigan and another type of stitch.
  • the half cardigan has been used on double cylinder circular frames for manufacturing seamless articles of footwear such as seamless stockings, half hose, socks, etc., with half cardigan at the top.
  • This known method consists of accumulating in the lower cylinder 21 new loop in the needle hook with the old stitch at the main feed and casting off the tuck stitches at the secondary feed.
  • no seamless article of footwear with half cardigan throughout the entire length of the leg and foot has heretofore been made, nor could such an article be made by any of the above-mentioned methods.
  • an object of the present invention to provide a seamless article of footwear, such as a stocking, half hose, sock, or the like, with half cardigan throughout the entire length of the leg and foot.
  • the present invention also concerns itself with a seamless article of footwear such as a stocking, half hose, sock or the like, in half cardigan tuck rib in the leg and foot and, with two different textile materials, so that one of the textile materials appears on the outside of the leg and foot of the article and the other appears in relief on the inside of the leg and foot of the article.
  • a seamless article of footwear such as a stocking, half hose, sock or the like, in half cardigan tuck rib in the leg and foot and, with two different textile materials, so that one of the textile materials appears on the outside of the leg and foot of the article and the other appears in relief on the inside of the leg and foot of the article.
  • the objects of the present invention also include the provision of a seamless article of footwear of the above type which is specially adapted to the shape of the foot and does not twist on the leg.
  • FIG. 1 shows an article of footwear with uniform half cardigan tuck rib in the leg and foot
  • FIG. 2 shows an article of footwear with fancy half cardigan tuck rib in the leg and instep of the foot and ordinary half cardigan in the sole, the ordinary half cardigan being one made with the 1X1 arrangement of the needles and the fancy half cardigan being one made with another type of arrangement such as LXlXlXX in which 1 is representative of a stitch formed on the right side and X a stitch formed on the Wrong, or 'back, side of the article.
  • FIG. 3 shows an article of footwear with a combination half cardigan tuck rib and links-links loops in the leg and instep;
  • FIG. 4 is a fragmentary view, on a larger scale, of the outside of a half cardigan tuck rib knitted textile.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 are fragmentary views, on a larger scale of the plated knitting of the heel and toe.
  • FIG. 1 shows an article of footwear with uniform half cardigan tuck rib in the leg and foot.
  • the article is thus uniformly elastic.
  • FIG. 2 shows an article similar at FIG. 1, except that the leg and instep of the foot are fancy half cardigan tuck rib.
  • This fancy half cardigan is made with longitudinal bands of half cardigan tuck rib stitches and longitudinal bands of reversed stitches.
  • the present invention also resides in an article of footwear with a combination of half cardigan tuck rib and loops called links-links, and such an arrangement is shown in FIG. 3.
  • This particular article has been found to be better wearing than the articles shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 because, due to the great flexibility of half cardigan, once the article is on the foot it has a tendency to turn around with leg rubbing against the other, particularly when the Wearers legs are crossed,
  • the article 'shown in FIG. 3, being made with a combination of half cardigan and links-links loops offers the advantages of allowing the production of longitudinal stripes that are less elastic than the remainder of the article. This makes the article fit closer to the leg and thus prevents it from twisting around.
  • FIG. 3 also shows a stripe of linkslinks loops at each heel corner, it being obvious that the number, width and position of these stripes may vary.
  • the article can be manufactured in different ways, according to the various types of double-cylinder machines used.
  • the articles of footwear according to the present invention are made on the double cylinder machines generally used for making stockings, half hose, socks, etc. However, these machines are modified for the purpose of making half cardigan tuck rib throughout the entire leg and foot while utilizing synthetic yarn at one feed and natural yarn at the other feed. In this manner, an article of footwear is obtained in which the synetheti-c yarn appears in the leg and foot at the outside While the natural yarn in relief is on the inside of the leg and foot of the article. Indeed, if a knitted article executed in half cardigan with the tuck inside i examined closely, see FIG.
  • half cardigan tuck rib With half cardigan tuck rib, if a row of natural textile material d and a row of synthetic textile material e are knitted, only the synthetic textile material will appear on the outside, and the natural textile material will appear in relief on the inside. Moreover, by using different colors, very beautiful fancy or multiple color effects can be obtained, these being called covered rib.
  • cover rib By making the underside portion of the solo in uniformly colored half cardigan, the zebra appearance is avoided which is apparent in feet made with an ordinary double loop feed arrangement. Thus, the general appearance of the article is improved.
  • the synthetic material is on the outside of the leg and foot, it is that material which is subjected to rubbing by the shoe. Consequently, the strength and wear resistance of synthetic fibers is imparted to the article.
  • the article offers all of the comfort and hygienic advantages of natural fibers.
  • the heel andtoe are plated with synthetic fiber outside and natural fiber inside.
  • synthetic fiber outside and natural fiber inside there is only one synthetic fiber outside and natural fiber inside, thereby preventing a mixture of these fibers on the outside of the heel and toe of the article. See FIGS. and 6, wherein 101 represents the synthetic fiber and 102 represents the natural fiber.
