Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of knitted fabrics and their knitting methods, and specifically relates to a digital knitted fabric that simulates Miao ethnic minority digital embroidery and its knitting method. Background Technology

[0002] In an era of multiculturalism and rapid development, my country is increasingly emphasizing the inheritance and innovation of traditional culture. Miao embroidery, as one of the first batch of national intangible cultural heritages, has a long history and is full of the cultural spirit of ethnic minorities. However, due to its complex production process and the generally older age of its inheritors, it faces difficulties in protection, inheritance, and promotion. Digitalization has brought new opportunities for it.

[0003] Miao thread embroidery, also known as cross-stitch embroidery, is an embroidery technique that uses the warp and weft threads of fabric to create patterns. Its characteristics include symmetrical and even designs with vibrant colors. Miao women must meticulously ensure the threads are arranged in a regular pattern, with precise lengths and positions. A single incorrect thread can ruin the entire piece, making its production extremely time-consuming. A highly skilled practitioner can complete only a 5-centimeter-wide piece of embroidery in a day. It takes three months to embroider a simple garment, and as long as seven or eight years to complete a full set of formal attire.

[0004] In existing jacquard knitted fabrics, using regular and coarser yarns as floats results in strong stitches but they cannot adhere tightly to the fabric surface, making them prone to loosening, snagging, and puffing out, thus making them unsuitable for large-area weaving. When using finer yarns as floats, the circular knitting machine automatically cuts off the float connections, resulting in an indistinct stitch effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a simulated Miao ethnic digital yarn embroidery digital knitted fabric and its weaving method.

[0006] The present invention provides a method for weaving a simulated Miao ethnic minority digital knitted fabric, comprising:

[0007] Using a double-sided jacquard circular knitting machine, basic yarn and functional yarn are fed in separately. Through digital knitting, the embroidery ground and embroidery surface of the Miao ethnic group's embroidery are simultaneously simulated and woven, resulting in a digital knitted fabric that simulates the Miao ethnic group's embroidery.

[0008] The preferred method for the above-mentioned weaving technique is as follows:

[0009] The basic yarn is nylon, and the elastic fiber is at least one of nylon-coated spandex yarn and spandex.

[0010] The nylon yarn has a count of 40D / 1 to 70D / 2; the spandex yarn has a count of 20D to 210D; and the nylon-covered spandex yarn has a count of 10 / 08 to 40 / 70.

[0011] Spandex is added to the simulated embroidery area, and nylon-wrapped spandex yarn is added to the simulated embroidery surface area.

[0012] Knitting programs are programmed using knitting software.

[0013] The specific method for feeding basic yarn and elastic fiber into the branch lines is as follows: the knitting guide yarn is formed by sequentially interlocking loops of the first, fourth, and eighth lines; the first line guide yarn is configured to feed spandex through the first yarn nozzle and nylon through the second yarn nozzle; the fourth line guide yarn is configured to feed nylon-wrapped spandex yarn through the first yarn nozzle and nylon through the second yarn nozzle; the eighth line guide yarn is configured to feed nylon-wrapped spandex yarn through the first yarn nozzle and nylon through the second yarn nozzle.

[0014] Furthermore, the knitting guide yarn is formed by sequentially interlocking loops of the 1st, 4th, and 8th yarns; the 1st yarn guide yarn is configured with a first yarn feeder for spandex and a second yarn feeder for nylon; the 4th yarn guide yarn is configured with a first yarn feeder for nylon-wrapped spandex yarn and a second yarn feeder for two nylon strands; the 8th yarn guide yarn is configured with a first yarn feeder for nylon-wrapped spandex yarn and a second yarn feeder for two nylon strands.

[0015] The digital knitting technique enables simultaneous simulation of the embroidery ground and surface of a multi-thread embroidery, including: a simulated embroidery ground area, a first simulated embroidery surface area, and / or a second simulated embroidery surface area; wherein in the simulated embroidery ground area, the first needle plate is fully needled, the fourth and eighth needle plates are not needled, and the first, fourth, and eighth needle cylinders are interlaced 1x1; in the first simulated embroidery surface area, all loops on the needle plate are turned to the needle cylinder, the first, fourth, and eighth needle plates are not needled, the first and fourth needle cylinders are interlaced 1x1, and the eighth needle cylinder is not needled; in the second simulated embroidery surface area, all loops on the needle plate are turned to the needle cylinder, the first, fourth, and eighth needle plates are not needled, the first and eighth needle cylinders are interlaced 1x1, and the fourth needle cylinder is not needled.

[0016] The simulated Miao ethnic digital knitted fabric undergoes post-processing, which includes ironing, washing, and drying.

[0017] The present invention relates to a method for weaving a simulated Miao ethnic digital embroidery digital knitted fabric.

[0018] The simulated Miao ethnic digital embroidery fabric is a composite jacquard knitted fabric combining three-color sesame dot jacquard and floating thread reverse jacquard.

[0019] The present invention relates to the application of the simulated Miao ethnic digital embroidery digital knitted fabric in home textiles, clothing, and cultural and creative products.

[0020] This invention's knitting method utilizes computerized knitting software specific to double-sided circular weft knitting machines to arrange, combine, and connect knitting loops, forming a composite jacquard fabric that combines three-color sesame dot jacquard and float-back jacquard. By mixing a strong base yarn with functional auxiliary yarns to achieve a suitable yarn shrinkage rate, the floats adhere tightly to the fabric surface, resulting in the distinctive stitch texture of Miao ethnic group's multi-thread embroidery. The stitches are arranged in a regular, symmetrical multi-thread embroidery pattern. This method combines traditional hand embroidery with modern digital knitting technology, overcoming the technical limitations of Miao multi-thread embroidery, such as long production time, low reproducibility, and limited product variety. The resulting knitted fabric exhibits excellent simulation of multi-thread embroidery stitches, and the embroidery ground and surface can be simultaneously simulated and knitted using digital software, resulting in high production efficiency. It is suitable for the development of multi-thread embroidery-related clothing, home textiles, and cultural and creative products.

[0021] Beneficial effects

[0022] This invention utilizes a computerized double-sided jacquard circular knitting machine (the Italian SANTONI SM-DJ2T computerized double-sided jacquard circular knitting machine), and employs matching knitting software (Photo SANTONI and Pulsar SM-DJX) to program the knitting process. It uses a hollow-cylinder jacquard method to create a digital knitted fabric simulating Miao ethnic minority count-thread embroidery. High-tenacity nylon yarn is fed into three yarn feeders. Spandex is added to the simulated embroidery area, and nylon-covered spandex yarn is added to the simulated embroidery surface area. The elasticity of the spandex and nylon-covered spandex yarn is used to adjust the yarn shrinkage rate, resulting in a smooth knitted fabric with excellent simulation of the count-thread embroidery stitches.

[0023] This invention overcomes the limitations of traditional counted yarn embroidery, which requires time-consuming and labor-intensive manual counting of yarns. Using PhotoSANTONI software for digital alignment ensures accurate yarn placement. Through variations in the knit structure, the embroidery ground and surface can be simultaneously simulated, producing a 50cm high, 100cm circumference cylindrical, seamless knitted fabric every 30 minutes. This improves the production efficiency of counted yarn embroidery derivatives and increases their reproducibility. Furthermore, the composite jacquard structure and the addition of functional elastic fibers in specific areas result in a significantly improved counted yarn embroidery effect on the finished knitted fabric. The simulated embroidery ground is smooth and has a delicate feel, while the simulated embroidery surface has distinct stitches and a slightly raised geometric pattern. For example, a knitted pillow, after finishing and filling, maintains a stable surface structure even after 1000 rubs between the skin and the fabric, without yarn loosening. This makes it suitable for large-scale production and can be used to create related derivative products, broadening the product categories and expanding its reach. Attached Figure Description

Figure 1 ).

[0035] (3) Knitting guide setting: The knitting guide is formed by sequentially nesting the loops of the first, fourth and eighth lines; the first line guide is set to feed 44D spandex into the No. 2 yarn feeder and 70D / 2 nylon into the No. 6 yarn feeder; the fourth line guide is set to feed 20 / 30 nylon-covered spandex yarn into the No. 2 yarn feeder and two 70D / 2 nylon yarns into the No. 6 yarn feeder; the eighth line guide is set to feed 20 / 30 nylon-covered spandex yarn into the No. 2 yarn feeder and two 70D / 2 nylon yarns into the No. 6 yarn feeder.

[0036] (4) Knitting unit settings: Simulate embroidery area, needle plate 1 is full, needle plates 4 and 8 are not disengaged, needle cylinders 1x1 are staggered in rows 1, 4 and 8. Figure 2 ); Simulated embroidery area 1, in which all loops on the needle plate are turned to the needle cylinder, needles do not exit from the needle plates of rows 1, 4 and 8, needles are interlaced 1x1 between needle cylinders of rows 1 and 4, needles do not exit from needle cylinder of row 8. Figure 3 ); Simulated embroidery area 2, in which all loops on the needle plate are turned to the needle cylinder, needles do not exit from the needle plates of rows 1, 4 and 8, needles are interlaced 1x1 between needle cylinders of rows 1 and 8, needles do not exit from needle cylinder of row 4. Figure 4 ).

[0037] (5) Finishing: ironing, washing, drying.

[0038] (6) Different products are created according to user requirements. The picture shows a simulated Miao ethnic embroidered knitted pillow. Figure 5 ) and simulated Miao ethnic minority yarn embroidery knitted blanket ( Figure 6 ).

[0039] The knitting method utilizes the unique computerized knitting software of a double-sided circular weft knitting machine to arrange, combine, and connect knitting loops, forming a composite jacquard fabric that combines three-color sesame dot jacquard and float-yarn reverse jacquard. Simultaneously, the composite jacquard structure and the addition of functional elastic fibers in specific areas result in a finished fabric with a pronounced simulated embroidery effect. The simulated embroidery areas are smooth, with a delicate touch, and the stitches are clearly defined, presenting a slightly raised geometric pattern (such as...). Figure 5-6 As shown in the figure, the knitted pillow woven in this embodiment, after finishing and filling, can withstand 1000 rubs between the skin and the knitted surface. The fabric surface structure remains stable and there will be no loosening of the yarn. It is suitable for large-scale production and can be used to make derivative products related to yarn embroidery, thus broadening the categories of yarn embroidery products and expanding their promotion scope.

[0040] Overcoming the limitations of traditional count-thread embroidery, which requires manual counting of yarns and is time-consuming and labor-intensive, Photo SANTONI software is used for digital grid alignment, which can ensure accurate yarn counting positions. By changing the knitting structure, the embroidery ground and surface of count-thread embroidery can be simulated simultaneously.
