[0002] Traditional sports functional fabric is mainly developed by using yarn characteristics through weaving and circular knitting. The disadvantage is that the structure is not as rich as flat knitting, and splicing is needed to achieve a fabric with multiple functional properties. For example, waterproof fabric needs to be combined with warm-keeping fabric or filled with down to achieve the function. With the expansion of new fields of flat knitting products and the diversity of flat knitting product structures, it is urgent to develop waterproof and warm-keeping fabric using flat knitting by combining product demand, structure and material. SUMMARY
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a flat knitting waterproof and warm ski suit fabric and a knitting method thereof, which can be formed by flat knitting without splicing. The knitting method breaks through the limitations of traditional knitting methods and opens up a new path for flat knitting jacquard structure.
[0004] The technical solution of the present application is to provide a flat knitting waterproof and warm ski suit fabric, which uses a two-needle flat knitting machine with a pair of front and back needle beds extending in the left and right directions and opposite to each other in the front and back directions. The hollow warm-keeping effect is achieved by filling yarn during knitting, and the inner layer uses polyester wool blended yarn to achieve the warm-keeping effect, and the surface layer uses waterproof polyester yarn to achieve the waterproof effect.
[0005] The present application also provides a knitting method for the above-mentioned waterproof and warm ski suit fabric, which is knitted as follows: setting the jacquard knitting area and the pattern outline indentation knitting area according to the pattern requirements, using the back needle bed and the front needle bed to knit the traditional air layer jacquard structure in the replacement structure knitting area, and simultaneously knitting the connection indentation in the pattern outline indentation knitting area. In the pattern outline indentation knitting area, the surface layer is knitted with waterproof polyester yarn, the bottom layer is knitted with polyester wool blended yarn, and the middle layer is knitted with sandwiched yarn.
[0006] Specifically, in the above-mentioned knitting method, three yarn nozzles are used for knitting, yarn nozzle 1 carries waterproof polyester yarn, yarn nozzle 2 carries wool blended yarn, and yarn nozzle 3 carries polyester sandwiched yarn, wherein,
[0007] In the pattern outline indentation knitting area, yarn nozzle 2 does not knit, yarn nozzle 3 is filled with sandwiched yarn, and yarn nozzle 1 knits the front and back needle bed loops;
[0008] In the jacquard weaving area, after the yarn feeder 2 knits the needle bed loops, after the yarn feeder 3 with the clamping yarn pad is inserted, the yarn feeder 1 knits the front needle bed loops.
[0009] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages when using the above solution: By performing air-layer jacquard weaving on a two-needle flat knitting machine, the filling yarn provides a hollow, warm effect, and the inner layer uses a polyester-wool blended yarn for warmth, while the outer layer uses waterproof polyester yarn for waterproofing, thus achieving a waterproof and warm fabric. This invention breaks through the limitations of traditional weaving methods, opening up new paths for the weaving of jacquard structures on flat knitting machines. It plays a role in better interpreting design concepts and improving the quality, artistic value, and aesthetic value of products, providing broader development space for knitted product development and the market.
