KNIT FABRIC FOR A WELT OR THE LIKE Filed Jan. 17, 1961 INVENTOR:
CHAQLJE- A. MILE-S ATTORNEYS United States Patent 3,098,368 KNIT FABRIC FOR A WELT OR THE LHKE Charlie A. Miles, Burlington, N.C., assignor to Alamance Industries, Inc, Burlington, N.C., a corporation of North Carolina Filed Jan. 17, 1961, Ser. No. 83,329 5 Claims. (Cl. 66-178) This invention relates generally to stretchable fabrics for knit garments, preferably of the circular knit type, which provide better fitting qualities for the wearer thereof. More particularly, this invention is primarily concerned with forming an improved welt for circular knit ladies sheer seamless hosiery of the type having a turned welt which is adapted to engage the leg of the wearer above the knee.
As is well known, seamless ladies sheer hosiery is knit on a circular knitting machine and the full component of needles must remain in knitting action throughout the knitting of the hose so that any fashioning must be effected by changing the stitch size in the various portions of the hose. For example, during the knitting of the welt the stitch loops are made as large as possible and during the knitting of the ankle portion the stitch loops are made as Small as possible. When extremely long stitch loops are formed of regular monofilament or multifilament yarn during the knitting of the conventional type welt, vertical ribs, distorted stitch loops and/or crowfeet appear in the welt. When the welt is knit with the longest stitches, it is possible to draw without forming distorted stitches, the welt will normally expand to a maximum width of from eleven to thirteen inches and in many instances this is not enough expansion .to afford a comfortable fit on the thigh of the wearer.
In order to provide greater expansion of the welt, it has been suggested that the welt be formed entirely of multifilament thermoplastic yarns which have been processed to render the same stretchable. A welt knit entirely of stretchable thermoplastic yarns will expand easily and will lit a wide range of leg sizes. However, when this type of hose is finished, the stretchable yarn in the welt will shrink to draw the welt inwardly and reduce the same to a size which is smaller than the adjacent portion of the leg. This presents an objectionable appearance to the prospective customer since they are accustomed to purchasing hose in which the welt is at least as large as the adjacent portion of the leg.
With the foregoing in mind, it is a primary object of the present invention to provide an improved tubular knit fabric which is particularly adapted for use in forming a welt for hose which has increased expansibility and in which the stitch loops have an even and uniform appearance.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an improved hose of the type described in which the welt will be the same size as the adjacent portion of the leg of the hose when in unstretched or relaxed condition.
Generally, the above objects are accomplished by knitting the welt of the hose of a pair of yarns in plated relationship, one of the yarns being a preshrunk non-stretchable multifilament thermoplastic yarn and the other being a stretchable multifilament thermoplastic yarn. With both types of yarn being knit in each stitch loop, larger stitch loops can be formed without any distortion of the stitch loops, the stretchable yarn permits a greater amount of expansion of the welt and the preshrunk non-stretchable yarn acts as a control to limit both expansion and contraction of the welt so that the welt will snugly fit a wide range of leg sizes and the welt will contract to the same size as the adjacent portion of the leg of the hose when relaxed.
Some of the objects of the invention having been stated,
3 ,098,368 Patented July 23, 1963 other objects will appear as the description proceeds, when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which- FIGURE 1 is a perspective view of one side of the improved hose of the present invention;
FIGURE 2 is a greatly enlarged fragmentary elevation of that portion of the hose enclosed in the dotted area 2 in FIGURE 1 and showing the stitch construction of a few stitches in the last few courses of the shadow welt and the first few courses of the leg, illustrating the manner in which the two dilferent types of yarn are knit in plated relationship during the formation of the welt;
FIGURE 3 is -a side elevation of a portion of the preshrunk non-stretchable yarn used in knitting the welt;
FIGURE 4 is a side elevation of a portion of the stretchable yarn used in knitting the welt of the hose.
Referring to the drawings, the seamless hose shown in FIGURE 1 includes a welt broadly indicated at W, a leg L and a foot F. The welt W includes a turned welt portion 10 which is formed of two thicknesses of knit fabric in the well-known conventional manner and a shadow welt or after welt it which is formed of a single thickness of knit fabric and which is usually knit of the same yarn as the turned welt 10.
Referring to FIGURE 2, it will be noted that the stitch loops formed in the needle wales N of the welt courses W-C each contain a first yarn Y and a second yarn S which are knit in plated relationship with each other. The yarn Y is a multifilament preshrunk plain or non-stretchable thermoplastic yarn. The yarn S is a multifilament thermoplastic yarn which has been treated to kink, curl or crimp the filaments thereof so that the resulting yarn is stretchable. The yarns Y and S are preferably nylon, however, it is to be understood that other suitable yarns may be utilized.
The stitch loops formed in the needle wales N in the leg courses L-C each contain a single yarn P. The yarn P is a plain unshrunk non-stretchable monofilament thermoplastic yarn, such as nylon. However, it is to be understood that the leg courses L-C may also be formed of a plain multifilament yarn, if desired. Also, the leg L can he knit of a torque or lively yarn so that .the knit fabric of the leg will stretch although the yarn itself is not stretchable.
It has been found that a highly satisfactory welt can be knit on a sheer ladies seamless hose by utilizing the following types of yarn. It is to be understood that the following illustrations are given by way of example only and the present invention is not to be strictly limited thereto.
The yarn Y comprises one end of 20 denier nylon having seven filaments. This yarn is then twisted five turns per inch and wound onto collapsible paper cones. The yarn is then placed in an autoclave and treated at 225 F. for thirty minutes to shrink the yarn so that approximately one percent of residual shrinkage remains in the yarn. The yarn Y is then wound onto suitable cones for feeding the same to a circular knitting machine.
The yarn S comprises one end of 30 denier having ten filaments of nylon. This yarn is passed through a heated stutter box to cause the individual filaments to crimp. This treatment imparts bulk to the yarn and causes the yarn to be stretchable. The yarn S is then wound onto suitable cones for feeding the same to a circular knitting machine.
The two yarns Y and S are preferably drawn from their separate cones and then fed to the needles of the knitting machine through a common yarn feeding finger. However, the yarn-s Y and S may be plied together and then drawn from a single cone on the knitting machine. Thus, both yarns Y and S are knit in plated relationship in each stitch loop of the turned welt it} and after welt 11 of the hose. Upon completion of the knitting of the welt W, the leg and foot of the hose may be knit with any suitable yarn, such as a 15 denier plain monofilament nylon yarn.
When the hose is knit with yarns of the above type on a circular knitting machine having a 3% inch cylinder with 400 needles therein, the welt W will stretch fifteen or more inches after the hose is finished. On the other hand, the welt of hose knit on the same machine and using a single end of preshrunk multifilament yarn will only stretch from eleven to thirteen inches.
After closing the toe of the hose, it is then boarded and finished in the usual manner. During boarding, the Welt, leg and foot of the hose shrink to snugly fit the boarding form, however, the preshrunk yarn Y in the welt prevents excessive shrinkage of the welt and after welt 10 and 11. The heat applied during the boarding operation also sets the shape of the boarding form in the hose.
When the hose is removed from the boarding form, 0pposite side edges of the turned wel-t 10 and after welt 11 remain in alinement with opposite side edges of the adjacent portion of the leg L to thereby present a neat appearance. Since both yarns are fed to the needles to form stitch loops in the welt, much larger stitch loops can be formed than could be formed with a single yarn of smaller diameter. These relatively large stitch loops and the stretchable yarn S allow the fabric of the welt to be extended a greater than normal amount and, as has been stated, the welt made in accordance with this invention will stretch fifteen or more inches while a conventional welt knit of a plain preshrunk multifilament yarn will only stretch from eleven to thirteen inches. Also, when the welt of the present invention is relaxed, the welt and after welt will conform to the relaxed Width of the upper portion of the leg of the stocking. While the stretchable yarn S causes the welt to retract, the preshrunk plain yarn Y controls the amount of retraction and expansion of the welt.
Thus, in the improved hose formed according to the present invention, the welt has much more stretch than is provided in the conventional welt formed of a single regular multifilament yarn. The Welt has a neat appearance when the hose is in relaxed condition and it will snugly fit the leg of women having average leg sizes and the welt may be expanded to comfortably fit the leg of women who need an extra large welt.
Although the present invention is particularly directed to the formation of an improved stretchable tubular fabric, it is to be understood that the invention may also be applied to flat knit articles, such as full-fashioned hose.
In the drawings and specification there has been set forth a preferred embodiment of the invention and, although specific terms are employed, they are used in a generic and descriptive sense only and not for purposes of limitation, the scope of the invention being defined in the claims.
