Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a weft knitted fabric with cut pile, in particular a weft knitted fabric in which the cut pile is formed from at least two color yarns. [Background technology]
[0002] Patent Document 1 discloses a weft knitted fabric with cut pile, and according to paragraph 0029 of the specification, the jacquard composite cut pile knitting method is specifically as follows: Based on the rear-placed composite simultaneous knit loop forming knitting method, the front-placed composite simultaneous knitting method, and the composite distributed cut pile knitting method, different color yarns are used for the pile yarns fed as one course, and the cutter needles in one loop correspond to different color yarns, and when obtaining a monochromatic color block from the jacquard cut pile, only the cutter needle corresponding to one color yarn among the cutter needles (color units) arranged in one loop is operated to form a pile, and the pile yarns that do not form a pile are not cut by the cutter needle at the position of the cutter needle and only form floating yarns, and the floating yarns are covered by the formed color pile and are in the color pile, thereby obtaining a monochromatic color area. This requires selectively extending the needles from the cutter needles arranged in the loops, and when knitting, a weft knitting needle selecting mechanism is used, and when making a small pattern, a mechanical needle selecting mechanism may be used, and when making a large pattern, an electronic needle selecting mechanism may be used. The needle selecting mechanism generally uses two stations, and when knitting using the needle selecting mechanism, a single butt needle may be used as the cutter needle, and the pressing action of the cutter needle is performed by the pressing cam of the cutter needle acting on the butt, and the protruding action of the cutter needle is performed by the needle selecting mechanism, and thus a color can be specified for each color unit as desired, and may be a single color or multiple colors, thereby obtaining multi-color jacquard cut pile with various patterns.
[0003] In this patent, although a technical solution for realizing multiple colors is shown, a technical solution for realizing partial pile of knitted fabric under multiple color cut pile condition is not disclosed. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a weft knitted fabric with cut pile, comprising a plurality of basic loops and a plurality of cut piles, the basic loops being formed by at least one basic yarn, the cut piles being connected to one of the basic loops, each of the cut piles being formed by cutting a pile loop formed by one of at least two color yarns, each of the at least two color yarns forming at least one of the basic loops together with the at least one basic yarn when not used to form the cut piles, and the at least two color yarns being of different colors.
[0007] In one embodiment, the weft knitted fabric has multiple courses and the cut pile is not positioned consistently within the courses.
[0008] In one embodiment, the number of these cut piles in each of the courses is not constant.
[0009] In one embodiment, each of the cut piles has a base connected to at least one of the base loops and two cut piles each connected to the base. Effect of the Invention
[0010] The present invention thus implemented has the following features compared with the prior art: In the present invention, each of these cut piles is formed by cutting pile loops formed by one of at least two color yarns, and each of the at least two color yarns forms at least one of these basic loops together with at least one basic yarn when it is not used to form these cut piles, thereby achieving the knitting effect of haired or non-haired and color conversion, and greatly improving the degree of change of single-sided pile knitting. [Brief description of the drawings]
[0011] [Figure 1] 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a weft knitted fabric of the present invention. [Diagram 2] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the weft knitted fabric of the present invention when no cut pile is formed. [Diagram 3] This is the first schematic diagram of the planar structure of the weft knitted fabric of the present invention. [Figure 4] This is the second schematic diagram of the planar structure of the weft knitted fabric of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0012] The technical contents of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. Referring to Fig. 1, the present invention provides a weft knitted fabric 20, which is formed by knitting on a circular knitting machine, and the features of the weft knitted fabric 20 are as follows: The next structure of the weft knitted fabric 20 is completed during the knitting process of the circular knitting machine, i.e., on the machine, so that the processes of partial color dyeing and pile cutting may be omitted. The weft knitted fabric 20 includes a plurality of base loops 21 and a plurality of cut piles 22, the base loops 21 are formed by at least one base yarn 30, the cut piles 22 are respectively connected to one of the base loops 21, and each of the cut piles 22 is formed by one of at least two color yarns 31, 32, specifically, each of the cut piles 22 is formed by cutting the pile loops 23 formed by one of the at least two color yarns 31, 32, as shown in Fig. 2, and the cut position of the pile loops 23 is marked 40 in Fig. 2. Furthermore, each of these cut piles 22 has a base 221 connected to at least one of these basic loops 21, and at least one cut pile 222 connected to the base 221. Furthermore, when each of the at least two color yarns 31, 32 is used to form these cut piles 22, it forms at least one of these basic loops 21 together with at least one basic yarn 30, that is, each of these cut piles 22 is formed by only one of the at least two color yarns 31, 32, and the one not used to form the cut piles is knitted together with at least one basic yarn 30, as shown in FIG. 1. The color of each of these cut piles 22 is selected from one of the two color yarns 31, 32 based on the pattern to be formed in the weft knitted fabric 20. Furthermore, the colors of the at least two color yarns 31, 32 are different, and different colors refers to different color numbers, and similar colors also fall under the term "different colors" in this technical proposal.
[0013] 3, in one embodiment, the weft knitted fabric 20 of the present invention has a plurality of courses 24, and the positions of the cut pile 22 are not constant in the courses 24. Specifically, the circular knitting machine used to knit the weft knitted fabric 20 can set the knitting process so that the positions of the cut pile 22 in each of the courses 24 are different, and further, the cut pile 22 can form a pile pattern.
[0014] Furthermore, the cut pile 22 in each of the courses 24 of the weft knitted fabric 20 of the present invention is not limited to being evenly distributed. With reference to Fig. 4, in one embodiment, the number of the cut pile 22 in each of the courses 24 is not constant. That is, the number of the cut pile 22 in one of the courses 24 may be different from the number of the cut pile 22 in another of the courses 24.
[0015] Furthermore, the weft knitted fabric 20 of the present invention is not limited to a form in which each of these courses 24 includes these cut piles 22, and may include only these basic loops 21. Furthermore, the cut piles 22 in each of these courses 24 of the weft knitted fabric 20 of the present invention are not limited to a form in which they are evenly distributed, and may include only these basic loops 21.
[0016] As can be seen from the above, the weft knitted fabric 20 of the present invention can achieve the knitting effect of haired or non-haired and color changing through the above structure, and can greatly improve the degree of change of the single-sided pile knitted fabric.
