Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing tubular knitwear items and products obtained thereby.
  • the invention relates to the production of knitwear items provided with zones of three-dimensional fabric, apt to shape and give relief to the structure, the comfort and the specific anatomic containment of the products obtained thereby.
  • the panty 1 seen from the back, is characterised by the usual belt or double elastic welt DB and by the zone of diapered fabric CA, located between the glutei, in order to shape the manufactured item to the human body.
  • Said diapered fabric CA is usually obtained with a design and structure of ordinary jersey fabric formed by the appropriate combination of normal stitches or loops; elongated loops; and tuck stitches, said terms being _known to the people skilled in the art.
  • the aforementioned panty 1 is not wholly satisfying because shape, section and annular development of said elastic welt DB do not take into account the complex shape differences of the human body, whereas the zone of diapered fabric CA shows other limitations.
  • said diapered fabric CA is substantially only flat, therefore not three-dimensional; on the other hand it fulfils only partially the high requirements of shape, comfort and prop for the concerned anatomic portions.
  • the most scrupulous textile industries finish said panty by sewing on said parts an additional insert of three-dimensional fabric.
  • the present invention aims at reducing to a significant extent or eliminate the aforesaid technical and productive limitations, so as to automatically and advantageously obtain tubular knitwear items with even highly different belts or elastic welts, together with specific zones with gradually three-dimensional fabric, for a better shape, control, prop and anatomic support, with original productive, technical, aesthetic and commercial purposes.
  • a main aim of the present invention consists in providing a method for manufacturing tubular knitwear items, even strongly shaped, provided at least partially with substantially three-dimensional fabric structures, structurally engaged within the knitted tube, (or its reverse) , automatically manufactured in compliance with a modified jacquard design, only with groups of needles variously alternated.
  • a further main aim consists in providing a method for automatically manufacturing knitwear items such as panties, bras and similar, provided with specific areas of three-dimensional fabric placed between the breasts or the glutei and as far as the genitals, for a better anatomic shape, containment, prop and support.
  • An additional aim consists in providing a method for substantially modifying the appearance and the annular development of the usual elastic belt or band of the aforesaid knitwear items following guidelines or outlines designed in compliance with the different anatomic shapes, that is to say, more suitable to the innumerable sizes of the human body.
  • a further aim consists in providing a method for producing manufactured items with one or more areas in dimensionally more stable jersey fabric, in order to implement the specific anatomic propping functions of said manufactured items. Additional aims are apparent from the description, embodiments and accompanying drawings, alone or in combination, in addition to the final claims. Disclosure of the Invention

  • FIG. 13 shows different embodiments of the inside back portion of panties according to the present invention
  • FIG. 18 shows a further embodiment of the inside back portion of a panty
  • the invention is implemented by setting up a particular work cycle or jacquard design, i.e. information directed or precluded to the needles or jacks or other elements concurring directly or indirectly in the production of the fabric, by means of a graphic station or other control and memory devices, or by other means suitable for the purpose.
  • the present invention provides at this stage the manufacture of knitwear items characterised by fabric zones with differentiated growth due to the exclusion of a given number of needles, alternated with respect to the adjacent ones, for instance 1:1, 2:1-2:2 and similar.
  • a great part of inputs or commands usually directed to the needles is not sent to a part of the latter, following a given pattern or program according to the original design or work cycle.
  • Figs. 1-2-3-4-5-6 show technical, graphic and textile schemes pertaining to knitting technology, referring to the particular arrangement of the needles for the production of the frill of three-dimensional fabric Bi.
  • fig. 4 shows a perspective view, sufficiently realistic, of the frill Bi of figure 3, carried out with the needles AD and engaged within the knitted tube TM.
  • the needles AP are not part of the fabric-building process and keep back the corresponding last loops.
  • the invention is implemented with areas in jersey fabric substantially manufactured using all the needles, and with other areas in which, differently from the known art, the fabric-building process is interrupted. In these areas in fact the fabric produced with the alternated needles remains within the knitted tube, taking a far more efficient part in the anatomic shaping of the manufactured item than the previous or known art . For instance only even needles AP will be excluded, or alternated pairs of needles, i.e.
  • the fabric-building process goes on only with engaged alternated needles and corresponding loops AD, whereas the other free alternated needles are still engaged to the corresponding last loops AP.
  • This technique allows to produce a substantially closed knitted frill, with two layers or cloths Bi, figs. 3-4, which can be repeated and varied in vertical, horizontal and diagonal direction.
  • the composition, thickness and height of the aforementioned frills Bi are contingent factors and variables substantially affecting the degree of shape, comfort, prop and dimensional stability of the fabric and of the manufactured item.
  • fig. 7 shows a front view of a first highly schematic arrangement of the aforementioned three- dimensional frills, horizontally arranged, whereas the subsequent figures, 7a to 7h included, show further combinations in which the frills Bi are in even very different shapes and arrangements, which should affect the final appearance of the manufactured item effectively and gradually.
  • the examples in figs 7 to 7h schematically show only some of the innumerable geometrical combinations provided in the invention for the positioning of the frills Bi, which, if very close, produce original textile protuberances similar to the known pile or terry cloth, beside affecting with greater effectiveness the shape and final anatomic conformation of the manufactured item.
  • Figure 12 shows as an example of the known art the panty 1 provided with the usual two-layer elastic belt or band DB together with the back zone of diapered fabric CA, vertically placed between the glutei.
  • the frills Bi of the knitted zones CA are variously arranged according to the invention.
  • the frills Bi variously arranged, make the fabric dimensionally more stable, both in the direction of the courses and of the wales or ribs.
  • the jersey fabric MJ intrinsically elastic, does not usually contribute to lift the user's breast and it is not shaped on it. Therefore, according to the teachings of the invention, the central portion CA is carried out with a plurality of frills Bi variously arranged. As a consequence, it is possible to obtain two advantages at the same time: the anatomic conformation to the breasts and their support with the structural link of the lower welt DB, 3 to the upper welt DB, 2 by means of the connection of the central portion CA, i.e.
  • the welt DB preferably elastic and two-layered, usually obtained by means of the hooks or needles of the dial or upper needle bed (terms known to the people skilled in the art, not shown) , according to the invention and to the previous description, knitted zones with a reduced growth are produced within the knitted tube with only a part of the needles, said zones being the aforementioned frills Bi.
  • the panty 1 in fig. 10 is provided with a front knitted zone SA stiffened by means of the frills Bi, variously arranged with important functions of specific anatomic support. Said frills, when suitably designed and arranged, effectively contribute to:
  • panty 1 of fig. 10 is further characterised in its front part SA by the combinations and compositions of the frills Bi, already shown in figs. 7 to 7H included.
  • said knitted zone is specifically designed for additional function of abdominal anatomic support and greater local comfort.
  • Fig. 11 shows a panty 1 (or another tubular manufactured item provided with elastic welt DB) , characterised by the different location of said frills Bi, placed on the hips. It is thus possible to reduce the lateral production of fabric and increase the growth of the band DB in the front part, if necessary strengthened by the stitch formation cams which are selectively and specifically electronically controlled (terms known to the people skilled in the art, not shown) .
  • said frills Bi effectively contribute to:

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de production d'articles de tricotage tubulaire (1) tels que des slips, brassières, soutien-gorge, combinaisons-culottes, maillots de bain, robes, et analogues, pourvues de zones tricotées spécifiques (CA) obtenues automatiquement, lesquelles zones remplissent des fonctions de tenue du tissu, de confinement d'organe, de soutien et de support anatomique. L'invention coordonne la sélection des aiguilles appropriées (A) en fonction non seulement du dessin jacquard, mais aussi du cycle de fonctionnement du métier à tricoter. On obtient ainsi pour des zones de tissu spécifiques (CA) et des aiguilles (A) un arrêt partiel et temporaire du processus de confection du tissu pour des groupes d'aiguilles (A) alternant de diverses façons avec d'autres aiguilles (A) encore impliquées dans le processus de confection du tissu.
