Definitions

  • the tubular fishnet hose, or panty hose so made, in accordance with present day machines and skills, on flat bed warp knit machines, has the tubes running warp-wise, or longitudinally, of the knitted web. If stretchable yarns are laid in warp-wise to such power net, or fishnet, tubes, the stretchable yarns are in parallelism with the axes of the tubes, and have longitudinal, but not the circumferential expansibility and retractability such as desired in girdles.
  • ments such as girdles with stretchable yarns provided in a warpwise directionbut with the tubes running normal thereto, or across'the warp, of the warp knitting machine and formed of power net fabric or of similar Raschel warp knitted fabrics.
  • the concept does not involve shaping since this can be accomplished after the finished garments are made by well known heat treatment, boarding steps.
  • the above mentioned Cocker 14 bar warp knitting machine plus a second pattern drum, is set up so that eight guide bars knit two single, superposed power net fabrics simultaneously, four guide bars to each needle bar. The remaining six guide bars form the bands and crotch.
  • the crotch guide bars make inter-connecting stitching motions to cross interloop the superposed single fabrics to form a crotch and after a predetermined number of additional power net stitches, all guide bars are shifted to make interconnecting stitches across the warp to form the horizontal side seams of the horizontally disposed tubes of the garment, the resulting cross interlooped side seam bands being severable forforming individual tubular garments.
  • warp knitting power net in a continuous web of individual coursewise extending tubular garments permits stretchable yarns which maybe inherently stretchable as for example spandex,
  • mother elastic yarns or maybe stretch yarns which have no appreciable inherent stretchability but to which stretchability has been imparted by processing, as for example, 'Helanca,
  • Banlon etc. to extend warp-wiseof the web but transversely of the tubes, so that whenthe garment is cut from the web and turned through the stretchable yarns will be circumferential of the gannent.
  • a plurality offiller yarns are stitched and floated on the face of the fabric at spaced zones transversely of the web, to runwarp-wise and form waist edge bands and leg edge bands which also runcircumferentially of the garment when the garmentis cut from the web and turned through 90.
  • Garment length is controlledby varyingthe knitting width, transversely of the warp knit web and around-the-body size is controlled by changing the shifting points of the shifting pattern drums so that more, orless, power net fabric is knitted between shifting points on the warp knitting machine.
  • FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic front elevation of a double needle bar, Raschel type, warp knitting machine constructed in accordance with the invention, some of the continuous webs being illustrated as spread out, rather. thanwound up, for clarity.
  • FIGS. 2-12 arefront elevations
  • FIGS. 3-13 are corresponding end elevations in section which diagrammatically show some of the various embodiments of the product of the invention.
  • FIG. 14 is a diagrammatic, enlarged end elevation of the knitting portion of the machine of FIG], illustrating the fourteen guide bars, double needle bars,two-ply single fabrics unconnected, and a connected, cross interlooped band, and
  • FIG. 15 is a still further enlarged fragmentary view showing the power net of one panel of a garmentof the invention with the waist, or leg, band filler strands stitched and floated therein.
  • FIG. 1 a double needle bar, fourteen guide bar Cocker- Fashion Master Raschel, warp knitting; machine 20 is illustrated, this machine being well known and commercially available in the trade. It is described in an article entitled New Cocker Fashion Master Raschel for Shaped Panty Hose, Leotards, Etc, in Knitted Outerwear Times of Oct. 2, 1967, and further described in the previously mentioned article in that magazine of Apr. 29, 19,68.
  • the machine 20 comprises a frame 21 having double needle bars, or beds, 22 and 23, power net warp beam means, or body yarn warp beam means, termed the first warp means 24 herein, a wind up roll 25, and a first pattern forming means 26.
  • the machine 20, prior to this invention, and as explained in the said articles, is capable of knitting shaped, back to back, warp-wise extending tubular, panty hose or leotards of power net and is also capable of producing thermal underwear.
  • the guide bars 27 are mounted on a swingable frame 28 for traversing back and forth in a path transverse to the needle bars 22 and 23, and each guide bar is reciprocable on the swingable frame, in parallelism with the axis of the needle bars, under the control of a pattern chain 29 carried by a pattern drum 30, all in a known manner.
  • the pattern drum 30 is shiftable sidewise to actuate different sets of the pattern chains, for example, to change from knitting the warp-wise inner and outer selvedges to knitting across the span between the two legs to form the crotch and then back to tubular leg knitting.
  • the pattern forming means 26 also includes sensing means 31 in the form of a cycle timer 32, for counting the number of stitches and actuating a shuttle for making predetermined cut lines, or points, on the continuous web produced by the machine 20.
  • the machine 20 includes a second pattern forming means 35, identical with means 26, and arranged to control some of the fourteen guide bars 27 in cooperation with means 26 to create the product of the invention.
  • the pattern chains 36 and shiftable pattern drum 37 of the second pattern forming means 35 permit the formation of a pair of superposed, unconnected, single, power net fabrics 38 and 39, with every other course floated, and each single fabric knitted on one of the two needle beds 22 and 23 by four guide bars respectively, thus using eight of the 14 bars 27.
  • all of the guide bars repeatedly oscillate transversely back and forth in the space between the needles of both beds, and when a loop around a needle is desired, the particular guide bars are moved axially of the needle beds to wrap the strands around the needles to form loops.
  • the pattern control 26, 31 and 35 after a predetermined number of stitches, causes cross interlooping between fabrics 38 and 39 to take place also for a predetermined number of stitches to connect the two ply web into a single composite fabric 40 along a narrow band such as the full width, course-wise extending side seam band 41, or along the shorter crotch bands 42, or along the short, Wale-wise extending bands 43.
  • the first warp means 24 includes at least two warp beams 45 and 46, beam 45 supplying the spandex or other stretchable strands 47 and beam 46 supplying the nylon strands 48 to the double needle beds 22 and 23.
  • a set of spandex and nylon body yarns are warp knitted into power net fabric 38 on needle bed 22, and a second set of spandex and nylon body yarns are warp knitted into power net fabric 39 on the other needle bed 23.
  • the superposed, single fabrics 38 and 39 advance continuously downward from the knitting zone of the machine in a Wale-wise direction, and with the laid in spandex yarns 47 extending Wale-wise of the web for wind up on the wind up roll 25.
  • the spandex yarns 47 are laid into each stitch of the respective single fabrics 38 or 39 and locked into the stitches, and the loops of the nylon strands 48 run generally warp-wise of each web 44 to form generally vertical wales therein.
  • the machine 20 produces a plurality of continuous webs 44, each formed of the superposed, single power net fabrics 38 and 39, and, at spaced intervals, cross interloops the fabrics 38 and 39 to form successive narrow transverse single ply bands 41 which divide each web into a series of interconnected transversely extending, circumferentially stretchable, open-ended tubes, such as 49, 50 and 51.
  • the web 44 can be the full width of machine 20, and cut into individual narrower webs of garments along the selvedge bands, or, as shown, the webs 44 may be initially separated so that selvedge cutting is not necessary.
  • a second warp means 53 is preferably provided, consisting of warp beam 54 containing a supply of filler yarns, such as 55, for creating a waist edge band 56 and a leg edge trim 57, for each continuous web 44 at spaced intervals across the machine 20.
  • the filler strands 55 may be of any desired yarn material, such as spandex, wrapped with a fibrous strand, and are guided by the seventh and eighth guide bars of the set of guide bars 27. Filler strands 55 may be laid in, or knitted in, as desired.
  • the successive, individual, interconnected tubes 49, 50 and 51 produced by the machine 20 extend transversely, or horizontally, in a course-wise direction, and may be of power net only, or power net with spandex fillers laid in Wale-wise, or with spandex and filler yarns both laid in Wale-wise but obliquely, by Atlas lapping.
  • the cut is along the central, longitudinal axis of the band to thereby form individual separate tubes.
  • Each tube has open ends as at 58 and 59, and when turned through 90 and turned inside out to cover the seams, a finished garment is achieved.
  • a stretch girdle 60 is shown, which has been cut from a tube such as 49, 50 or 51.
  • the knitted garment 60 comprises a generally tubular circumferentially stretchable and retractive knitted body 61, having a front panel 62 formed of fabric 38 and a rear panel 63 formed of fabric 39.
  • the loops of the knitted fabrics run Wale-wise circumferentially around the tubular body.
  • the spandex yarns 47 also run Wale-wise of the fabric circumferentially thereof and are locked into the body stitches.
  • the side edge seams 64 and 65 which were out along the cross interlooped bands 41, join the front and rear panels into a tube and extend course-wise of the body 61, which is axially thereof, so that the side seams are interknitted, rather than sewn, as in the prior art.
  • a garment 66 is shown, which is identical with girdle 60, except that a short length 42 thereof has been cross interlooped, intermediate of the side edge seams 64 and 65, to form a crotch area 67, thus creating a panty girdle.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 a garment 69 is shown, which is also similar to garments 60 and 66, except that the cross interlooped crotch portion 42 thereof is of substantial length and has been cut at 70 along the longitudinal centre line to form inside seams 71 and 72 of garment legs 73 and 74.
  • the cut 70 is of less length than the band 42 to form a crotch portion 75.
  • the garment 78 is similar to garment 60 and includes a plurality of additional, or filler, yarns, such as 55, which have been laid in, or knitted in, to the fabric 38 forming front panel 62 in a wale-wise herringbone pattern 79. These yarns form a restraining area 80 centrally of the front panel, similar to the restraint and semi-restraint panels now sometimes sewed onto girdles for applying pressure on selected portions of the human body.
  • the obliqued restraining filler yarns 55 may be novelty yarns from a separate feed means and are Atlas lapped in a manner well known in the trade.
  • a garment 82 is shown, which is similar to garment 69, but includes the waist edge band, or trim, 56, and the leg edge band, or trim, 57, formed by the filler yarns 55. It should also be noted that some of the filler yarns 55 may be Atlas lapped into a triangular area 83, which covers the crotch area 75, making the same less translucent than the power net of the body.
  • the garment 85 consists of a basic tubular body, 61, having cross interlooped side seams 64 and 65, circumferentially running spandex strands 47, and top and bottom selvedges 86 and 87.
  • the cross interlooping along the side seam bands 41 has been interrupted at 88 and 89 to form sweater arm holes and the selvedge 87 has been cross interlooped along short bands 43 to form shoulders 90' and 91 which define a neck hole 92.
  • All of the garments depicted in FIGS. 2-13 are characterized by having generally tubular, circumferentially stretchable and retractive knitted bodies, such as 61, formed of a front knitted panel 62 and a rear knitted panel 63, each panel being knitted from a separate set of individual, warp yarns such as at 94 and 95 (FIG. 14).
  • the nylon loops of the power net run Wale-wise of the fabric 38 and 39 of the panels, which direction is circumferential of the body 61.
  • the stretchable, retractive spandex yarns 47 of the fabric 38 and 39 are preferably laid in Wale-wise of the fabric, and locked into the stitches, these stretchable yarns also running circumferentially of the body.
  • the garments are free of sewed side edge seams and sewed waist and leg tapes and instead the front and rear panels are joined into a tube by the cross interlooping of the body yarn stitches along the side seams 64 and 65 which have been cut from the bands 41.
  • the bands 41 extend course-wise of the fabrics 38 and 39 and run axially of the body 61 to form the interknitted side seams of the invention.
  • Guide bar 7 Filler 55, waist, (or leg) band net 38 on needle bar 22.
  • Guide bar 8 Filler 55, waist (or leg) band net 39 on needle bar 23.
  • Power net fabric 38 is knitted from spandex guide bars 1 and 2 and nylon guide bars 4 and 6 on needle bed 22 while power net fabric 39 is knitted from spandex guide bars 13 and 14 and nylon guide bars 9 and 11 on needle bed 23.
  • the waist band of fabric 38 is knitted from guide bar 7 and the waist band of fabric 39 is knitted from guide bar 8.
  • guide bars 3, 5, l0 and 12 are required to make the crotch section, two guide bars for each needle bar. These guide bars are threaded for only a short section at one end 95 of the garment and make stitching motions of regular power net.
  • the main guide bars 4, 6, 9 and 11 are threaded up to the point of the crotch guide bars 3, 5, l0 and 12 and knit a power net stitch.
  • the main net guide bars and the crotch guide bars make a power net fabric 38 and 39 on each needle bar.
  • the crotch guide bars are required to make interconnecting stitching mo tions on each needle bar at predetermined intervals. These interconnecting stitches will connect the two single fabrics 38 and 39 into one composite fabric 40 for the desired number of stitches and along the transversely extending distance desired for the crotch area.
  • the filler yarns 55 continue to supply filler strands 55 into the power net fabrics 38 and 39, along a waist band zone, along a leg band zone, or along an intermediate zone for Atlas lapping, depending on the particular tubular garments being warp knitted, the resulting filled areas being vertical bands of uniform width, or obliqued bands, of uniform width, when lapped sidewise.
  • the yarns 55 are floated for several courses on the face of the fabric, as at 97, and are then knitted into the fabric, as at 98, as shown in FIG. 15.
