UNITEn STATES PATENT OFFICE.
ROBERT W. SCOTT, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA, ASSIGNOR OF ONE- HALF TO LOUIS N. D. WILLIAMS, OF ASHBOURNE, PENNSYLVANIA.
KNITTED FABRIC.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 709,825, dated September 23, 1902.
Application iiled February 10, 1902. Serial No. 93,321. (No specimens.)
To all whom, t may con/007%:
Be it known thatI, ROBERT W. SCOTT,a citizen of the United States, residing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, have invented certain Improvements in Knitted Fabrics, of which the following is a specification.
My invention relates to that class of ribbed knitted fabrics with which is combined a yarn having projecting loops which can be sub- Io mitted to a brushing or gigging action, so as to produce a iieecy surface upon one side of the fabric.
The object of my invention is to distribute the points of attachment of the Iieecing-yarn throughout the fabric more uniformly than usual and to insure the more effective covering of the face of the fabric with the ieece produced by the brushing of the projecting portions of said yarn. This object I attain zo in the manner hereinafter set forth, reference being had to the accompanying drawing,which represents,on an exaggerated scale, a piece of ribbed knitted fabric having a fleecing-yarn combined therewith in accordance with my invention.
In the drawing, l 2 3 4 5 6 7 represent successive courses of stitches interlooped so as to form a ribbed fabric, some of these stitches being drawn in one direction, so as to form 3o the face wales ot of the web, and the alternate stitches b being drawn. in the opposite direction, so as to form the back wales of the web. Combined with the knitted wales thu's disposed are courses of fleecing -yarn x, this ieecing-yarn passing between the face and back wales of the fabric and being projected on the back of the fabric, so as to form loops tt/,which eXtend rearwardly beyond the back wales b and can therefore be brushed in 4o order to form the desired iieece without any injury to the knitting-yarn of which the back Wales b of the fabric are composed.
It is usual to employ a course of fleecingyarn for every other course of the knitted fabric, the fleecing-yarn passing between the stitches` of the face and back wales of every other course and being projected beyond the stitches of the back wales; but this is objectionable, because if, as frequently hap- 5o pens, the fleecing-yarn is visiblebetween the wales on the face of the fabric it imparts to those courses of the fabric in which it is introduced an appearance diering from the intervening courses, and therefore detracts from the desired appearance of uniformity on the face of the fabric. In order to overcome this objection I engage the eecingyarn rst with a stitch of one course and then .with a stitch of another course of the fabric. Thus, as shown in the drawing, the 6o uppermost iieecing-yarn a; passes first behind a stitch in the rear wale b of course l of the fabric, then behind a stitch in the rear wale b of course 2, then behind a stitch in the rear wale b of course l, then behind astitch in the rear Wale b of course 2, and so on, the next iieecing-yarn x being likewise disposed in respect to stitches in pairs of rear wales b of courses 3 and 4, and so on. By this Ameans the tying-points of each'row of fleecing-yarn 7o are distributed uniformly between stitches in every other Wale b of one course of the fabric and stitches in alternate wales b of the next course of the fabric. Hence if there is any showing of fleecing-yarn between the 7 5 face wales of the fabric such showing is uniform throughout said face and does not detract from the uniform appearance of the latter. This zigzag method of attachment of the ieecing-yarn to the stitches of the body of 8o the fabric also insures a more effective covering of the back of the fabric by the eece produced by brushing the said yarn.` Hence the appearance of the fabric both as to face and back is improved as a result of my invention.
Having thus described my invention, I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A ribbed knitted fabric having a iieecing- 9o yarn combined therewith and engaging first a Wale, or wales, in one course, and then a wale or wales, in another course of the fabric, thereby providing a zigzag disposition of the points of attachment of said ileecing-yarn, 9 5 substantially as specified.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
ROBERT W. SCOTT.
