Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of sock edge knitting, in particular to a tight sock toe edge knitting process. Background Art

[0002] Socks are an indispensable part of daily life, protecting the feet. Traditionally, the toes of socks knitted on open-leg sock machines require manual sewing, either through the mesh or through a sew-on method. With technological advancements, wholly fashioned sock machines, which shorten sock production time and reduce labor costs, are becoming increasingly popular.

[0003] At present, fully fashioned hosiery machines are equipped with an automatic toe sewing function. When knitting the toe hem, the same yarn configuration as the toe is usually used (i.e., a group of main yarns and a group of elastic covering yarns). With all needles working, one or two rows of plain weave are knitted, and then the stitches are sewn together by an automatic sewing device.

[0004] However, when the toes of socks made using the above-mentioned toe hem knitting process are subjected to stress and stretching at the seams, the coils at the toe seams are often easily enlarged, and holes are easily formed at the seam edges during wearing. At the same time, larger coil holes are formed on the fabric surface, thereby affecting the service life and appearance quality of the socks.

[0005] In addition, the seams are subject to greater friction and tension when wearing socks, which can easily cause holes and affect the service life of the socks.

[0006] Therefore, it is particularly important to improve the sock toe hem knitting process of the fully fashioned sock machine to improve the quality of socks.

[0007] Based on this, the inventors of the present application have designed a tight sock toe edge knitting process in order to overcome the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0047] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Reference will now be made in detail to preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numerals will be used throughout the drawings to represent the same or similar parts.

[0049] Furthermore, although the terms used in the present invention are selected from well-known and commonly used terms, some terms mentioned in the present specification may be selected by the applicant at his or her discretion, and their detailed meanings are explained in the relevant parts of the description herein.

[0050] Furthermore, it is required that the present invention be understood not only by the actual terms used but also by the meanings lying behind each term.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention discloses a tight sock toe hem knitting process, which includes the following steps:

[0052] First, do the following preparations before step S1:

[0053] Prepare raw materials: Prepare raw materials according to sock design and process requirements.

[0054] The raw materials preferably include main yarn, spandex covered yarn, elastic thread and seam suture thread, etc. The main yarn preferably includes cotton yarn, wool yarn, polyester yarn, nylon yarn, short fiber pure spinning / blended yarn, or filament yarn, etc.

[0055] Prepare program chain: Prepare the pattern and program chain for knitting on the machine according to the style, pattern, structure and other requirements of the socks;

[0056] Preparation for knitting: Prepare the machine according to the knitting process, including but not limited to checking the machine, threading the yarn, and introducing the program chain for knitting;

[0057] Knitting the sock body: After importing the sock program chain, start knitting the sock cuff, leg, heel, foot and toe.

[0058] After knitting the main body of the sock (cuff, leg, heel, and foot), the toe is knitted. Usually, the toe is knitted using two yarn feeders: one for the face yarn (various staple yarns or chemical fiber filament yarns) and the other for the ground yarn (usually elastic covering yarn).

[0059] Then proceed to knitting the sock toe hem, specifically:

[0060] Step S1: selecting at least one group of face yarns and at least one group of ground yarns to weave into a plating structure, wherein the plating structure is used as sock hem coils to interlace and weave multiple rows of 1×n loop formation and tuck structures to weave the sock toe hem.

[0061] wherein n is a natural number. The ground yarn is preferably an elastic covered yarn, an elastic yarn, or a chemical fiber filament yarn. The face yarn is preferably a combed cotton yarn, a pure or blended spun staple yarn, or a filament yarn.

[0062] In this case, all or part of the loops in a plaited weave are composed of two or more yarns. Tucks are one of the structural units of weft knitted fancy weaves. During the knitting process, the needle rises along the triangle to the tuck height, retaining the old loop in the hook. A new yarn is inserted into the hook to form an unclosed loop, thus forming an elongated loop.

[0063] like Figure 4As shown in the figure, from top to bottom are the first, second, and third rows of seam allowances. The leftmost needle is the first knitting needle of the machine, which is the middle needle of the low-leg knitting needle. Among them, the needle is raised to the back-loop height, yarn is fed, and the stitch is knitted as A, the needle is raised to the tuck height, yarn is fed, and the stitch is knitted as B, and the first to fourth needles of the high-leg knitting needle are marked as C.

[0064] Further preferably, the step S1 specifically includes the following steps:

[0065] Step S 11 After completing the sock toe knitting, knit the first row of the sock toe seam (i.e. row 1), starting from the first low-foot knitting needle and knitting into a circle to the end of the low-foot knitting needle.

[0066] Step S 12 , knit a tuck on the first high-leg knitting needle, knit a loop on the second high-leg knitting needle, and repeat the knitting pattern of 1×n loops and tucks on the remaining needles, following the pattern of the first and second high-leg knitting needles. Here, n is a natural number. For example, this embodiment uses a 1×1 loop tuck as an example. Of course, the staggered 1×1 loop tuck structure used in the toe hem knitting can be replaced with other loop tuck combinations, including but not limited to 1×1 loop tuck and 1×2 loop-tuck.

[0067] Step S 13 , knit the second row of the sock toe seam (i.e. the 2nd row). When knitting, the first low-leg knitting needle knits into a loop and the second low-leg knitting needle knits into a tuck. Repeat the knitting of 1×n loops and tucks in the same way as the first low-leg knitting needle and the second low-leg knitting needle.

[0068] Where n is a natural number. For example, this embodiment uses a 1×1 stitch tuck. Of course, the staggered 1×1 stitch tuck structure used in the toe hem knitting can be replaced with other stitch tuck combinations, including but not limited to 1×1 stitch tuck, 1×2 stitch-tuck, etc.

[0069] Step S 14 , knit the third row of the sock toe seam (i.e. the 3rd row). When knitting, the first low-leg knitting needle knits a loop and the second low-leg knitting needle knits a circle. The knitting of 1×n loops and tucks is repeated in accordance with the knitting method of the first low-leg knitting needle and the second low-leg knitting needle, forming an staggered 1×n loop and tuck structure with the second row.

[0070] Where n is a natural number. For example, this embodiment uses a 1×1 stitch tuck. Of course, the staggered 1×1 stitch tuck structure used in the toe hem knitting can be replaced with other stitch tuck combinations, including but not limited to 1×1 stitch tuck, 1×2 stitch-tuck, etc.

[0071] In addition, in step S 14Then repeat the step S 13 and the step S 14 Knit into multiple rows of staggered 1×n loops until the toe seam is completed.

[0072] The number of knitting rows and arrangement of the 1×n loop-tuck structure (e.g., 1×1 loop-tuck) for knitting the toe hem include, but are not limited to, a knitting process of 2 staggered rows of 1×n loop-tuck (e.g., 1×1 loop-tuck).

[0073] As mentioned above, after the toe portion is knitted, step S1 knits the toe edge, usually with 2 to 3 rows of edges. This embodiment takes a 3-row edge design as an example.

[0074] Yarn used for knitting the seam edge: On the basis of knitting the toe with 2 yarn feeders (1 group of face yarn + 1 group of ground yarn), the third yarn feeder for the ground yarn (elastic covered yarn) is brought into the knitting area for knitting, that is, 3 yarn feeders (1 group of face yarn + 2 groups of ground yarn (elastic covered yarn)) are used to knit the seam edge by adding yarn to increase the tightness and elasticity of the seam edge coil.

[0075] Knitting Structure: In this embodiment, the toe hem has two rows of staggered 1×1 loop-tuck structures. The tuck loops will limit the stretchable length of the loops in the previous knitting cycle to a certain extent, thus allowing the hem to be more tightly knitted.

[0076] Step S2: After the sock toe edge is knitted, the automatic sewing transfer arm transfers the coils of the sock toe edge to the sewing plate in an eye-to-eye manner, and then the sock toe edge sewing device completes the eye-to-eye sewing of the sock toe.

[0077] When the sock toe edge knitting is completed, the hook of the seam transfer arm hooks the sock toe edge loops in an eye-to-eye manner (one group of loops to one crochet hook) and transfers them to the seam device, and then sews them to complete the sock toe sewing.

[0078] After the sock toe is sewn, the following processing is required:

[0079] Sock post-processing: washing, drying and shaping the socks.

[0080] Socks inspection and packaging: After the socks are finalized, they are quality inspected and packaged.

[0081] like Figure 2 As shown, in the tight sock toe hem knitting process of the present invention, the yarn is unwound from the yarn bobbin and passed through the yarn feeding device, first passing through the yarn guide hole 10 above the yarn guide nozzle group, and then passing into the yarn guide tube 20 of the corresponding yarn guide nozzle, and the yarn is fixed with a wire clamp.

[0082] During weaving, the yarn guide nozzle 20 moves to the yarn padding position to bring the yarn into the weaving area, and the yarn is hooked by the knitting needle that rises to the loop height or the loop height to complete the weaving of the corresponding coil structure, and the wire clamp opens to release the yarn.

[0083] This embodiment is implemented on a fully fashioned sock machine with an automatic toe sewing device. Three yarn guides are used when knitting the toe hem of the socks, including one face yarn guide and two ground yarn guides, which are used for the inlay yarns of one group of face yarns and two groups of ground yarns respectively.

[0084] The sock toe hem coil is a plating structure. The plating structure knitting process requires that the longitudinal angle of the face yarn is preferably in the range of 15-30 degrees, and the longitudinal angle of the ground yarn is preferably in the range of 30-55 degrees.

[0085] Simultaneously, the inlay yarn horizontal angle of the face veil is smaller than the inlay yarn horizontal angle of the ground yarn, and the ground yarn is made to be closer to the needle bar needle head as much as possible. The face veil yarn guide mouth and the ground yarn yarn guide mouth selected for use in the present embodiment can meet the requirements of the plaiting weaving process.

[0086] like Figure 3 As shown, the present embodiment employs two types of knitting needles: a high-legged needle 11 and a low-legged needle 12. The butts of these needles act on a cam track to control the needle's movement along the track. When the cam is in its half-operation position, only the butts of the high-legged needles can enter the track and work along it, while the butts of the low-legged needles cannot. When the cam is in its full-operation position, the butts of both high-legged and low-legged needles can enter and work along the track.

[0087] like Figure 5 As shown, all or part of the loops of the plating structure are composed of two or more yarns. In this embodiment, the sock hem loops are plating structures, that is, they are woven from a face yarn 30 and a ground yarn 40. The face yarn used in the sock hem knitting includes but is not limited to one group, and the ground yarn used includes but is not limited to one or two groups. The face yarn (combed cotton yarn) used in the sock hem knitting can be replaced with pure or blended staple yarn or filament yarn of other materials and colors. The two groups of elastic covering yarn can also be replaced with elastic yarn or elastic covering yarn of different specifications and materials, or chemical fiber filament yarn, such as nylon.

[0088] In this embodiment, the combed cotton yarn for the face yarn is always on the front side of the loop, i.e., the front side of the sock toe seam; the elastic covering yarn for the ground yarn is always on the back side of the loop, i.e., the back side of the sock toe seam. The elastic covering yarn is knitted as the ground yarn, which also enhances the elasticity of the seam fabric.

[0089] like Figure 6As shown, the loop stitch is marked 50, and the tuck stitch is marked 60. Loop stitching involves raising the needle to the full retraction height, removing the old loop from the hook onto the needle shaft, inserting a new yarn into the hook, and bending the yarn into a loop, leaving only the new loop inside the hook. Tuck stitching involves raising the needle to the tuck height, retaining the old loop inside the hook, inserting a new yarn into the hook, and bending the yarn into a loop, leaving the hook containing both the old loop and the new yarn.

[0090] Here, the 1×1 tuck weaving at the seam edge position can limit the tensile deformation of the coil and prevent the seam edge from being excessively stretched under tension.

[0091] like Figure 7 As shown, the sock shaft is marked 70, the sock toe is marked 71, and the sock toe seam is marked 72. After the sock machine has finished knitting the sock shaft, some of the knitting needles withdraw from their working positions and begin knitting the sock toe. During the knitting of the sock toe, the needles are repeatedly moving and simultaneously knitting the bag-shaped sock toe portion by selecting needles. After the sock toe is knitted, all the knitting needles withdraw from their working positions and knit the sock toe seam according to the structure design.

[0092] The toe of the socks made by the tight toe seam knitting process of the present invention is in a stretched state, and the coils at the toe sewing device are still tight at the seam position when stretched, without the problem of enlarged coil holes.

[0093] As described above, the present invention's compact toe hem knitting process, developed for fully fashioned hosiery machines with automatic toe sewing, utilizes a two-row, staggered 1x1 loop-tuck knitting process. This increases the tightness of the stitches between rows and reduces stretching. After the toe opening is sewn to the right, stretching of the stitches at the hem is minimized, effectively improving the toe quality of the hosiery.

[0094] It selects one group of face yarns and two groups of elastic covering yarns to weave the seam edge coils, that is, a single coil at the seam edge contains one group of face yarns and two groups of elastic covering yarns, thereby increasing the tightness, strength and elasticity of the seam edge coils.

[0095] The tight sock toe edge knitting process of the present invention is an improvement of the sock toe edge knitting process on a fully fashioned sock machine with an automatic sock toe sewing function, that is, the coil knitting structure at the sock toe edge is improved, and at the same time, a group of elastic covering yarns is added during the knitting process to weave tight coils, so that the coils at the sock toe edge after the stitching are tighter and firmer.

[0096] After the toe part of the sock is knitted using local knitting needles, a group of elastic covering yarn is added to the original yarn used for the main body of the sock to knit two rows of staggered 1×n loop structures to form the toe seam. The toe automatic sewing transfer arm then transfers the coils of the toe seam to the sewing disk in an eye-to-eye manner, and the toe sewing device completes the eye-to-eye sewing of the sock.

[0097] The coils at the toe seams of socks made using this seam knitting process are tighter, the coils are less deformed, and there are no large coil holes in the coils at the seams after being stretched hard. The seams knitted with three groups of yarns have better wear resistance.

[0098] This toe hem knitting process creates a tighter coil structure, minimizes tensile deformation, and maintains high coil strength. After the toe seam is sewn, the coils exhibit minimal deformation and remain tightly packed when the toe seam is stretched, eliminating the risk of large holes caused by deformation. Furthermore, the addition of an elastic covering yarn reinforces the toe hem, improving its strength.

[0099] This toe-sewing process can be performed on various hosiery knitting machines equipped with automatic toe-sewing devices, including but not limited to single-cylinder hosiery machines and double-cylinder hosiery machines with plain, regular, or random terry configurations. This toe-sewing process can be applied to the toe-sewing of various socks, including but not limited to long socks, mid-length socks, and short socks, as well as socks knitted with different materials and structures.

[0100] In summary, the compact sock toe hem knitting process of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0101] 1. The improved sock toe hemming process can improve the problem of the coil at the sock toe hemming being easily stretched, and at the same time, the sock toe hemming coil is reinforced.

[0102] 2. The coil structure of the seam edge is tighter, the tensile deformation is small, and the coil strength is high.

[0103] 3. After completing the stitching, when the seam of the sock toe is stretched hard, the coil is slightly deformed and remains tight, so there will be no problem of large coil holes caused by coil deformation.

[0104] Fourth, after adding a group of elastic covering yarns, the seam position of the sock toe is also reinforced, thereby improving the strength of the seam edge of the sock toe.

[0105] 5. Improve the practical life and appearance quality of socks.

[0106] 6. The sock toe hem knitting process can be implemented on various hosiery knitting machines equipped with automatic toe sewing devices, and can be applied to the toe hem knitting of various sock varieties, as well as socks knitted with different raw materials and tissue structures.
