Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine control, and specifically relates to a knitting method using inner and outer needle increases. Background Technology
[0002] In actual garment knitting needs, it is sometimes necessary to perform "inner increases" and / or outer increases (hereinafter referred to as "inner and outer increases") in a certain knitting area.
[0003] In current technology, in order to meet the requirement of "increasing stitches inside and outside" during automatic knitting of clothing, it is necessary to calculate the number of rows and stitches to match based on this requirement, and then manually draw the pattern as the pattern for the computer flat knitting machine. This not only requires a long time for manual drawing, but also has a high error rate and relatively low pattern making efficiency. In addition, existing technology cannot achieve "increasing stitches inside and outside" for clothing with irregular patterns.
[0004] Therefore, based on the applicant's focused research and development experience in computerized flat knitting machines, we hope to find a technical solution to meet the needs of efficient and flexible internal and external needle addition. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a knitting method using inside and outside increases, which eliminates the need for manual drawing based on calculating the number of rows and stitches to be increased, and can also be flexibly applied to the inside and outside increase requirements of irregular garments; it saves the time of manual drawing, reduces the drawing error rate, and significantly improves the efficiency of garment pattern making.
[0006] The technical solution adopted in this invention is as follows:
[0007] A knitting method using inside and outside increases involves setting an inside increase knitting mode and / or an outside increase knitting mode in the process sheet type of a fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine; the fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine automatically draws a pattern based on the set inside increase knitting mode and / or outside increase knitting mode, and then compiles the pattern and directly puts it on the machine for knitting.
[0008] Preferably, in the inner stitch knitting pattern, stitches are continuously added from both sides of the garment piece towards the center, so that the hem of the garment forms a concave arc shape.
[0009] Preferably, in the additional needle knitting pattern, needles are continuously added from the center of the garment piece outwards to both sides, so that the hem of the garment forms an outwardly convex arc shape.
[0010] Preferably, when setting the inner increase stitch knitting mode or the outer increase stitch knitting mode, the corresponding continuous increase stitch number is set; then the fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine automatically draws the arc pattern corresponding to the inner increase stitch knitting mode or the outer increase stitch knitting mode through its pattern layer module, and the fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine compiles the arc pattern and directly puts it on the machine for knitting.
[0011] Preferably, when setting the inner increase stitch knitting mode, the number of continuously increased stitches is set to a positive number; when setting the outer increase stitch knitting mode, the number of continuously increased stitches is set to a negative number.
[0012] Preferably, when setting the inner increase stitch knitting mode, the number of continuously increased stitches is set to a negative number; when setting the outer increase stitch knitting mode, the number of continuously increased stitches is set to a positive number.
[0013] Preferably, when setting the inner needle knitting pattern or the outer needle knitting pattern, it is also necessary to select whether to use single yarn feeder knitting or double yarn feeder knitting.
[0014] Preferably, in the advanced settings interface of the process sheet, you can select to use single-yarn-nose weaving or double-yarn-nose weaving.
[0015] Preferably, during the compilation process, the required knitting parameters are matched based on the pattern drawn according to the inner increase knitting pattern and / or outer increase knitting pattern, wherein the knitting parameters include at least the number of increase rows and the number of increase stitches required for each row.
[0016] Preferably, in the process sheet type of the fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine, an inner needle increase knitting mode and / or an outer needle increase knitting mode are set for the required knitting area.
[0017] This application allows for the direct setting of either an inner or outer stitch increase knitting mode for a specific area requiring inner or outer stitch increases within the process sheet type of a fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine. By defining and setting the arc shape relationship corresponding to the inner and outer stitch increase knitting modes respectively, the pattern layer module of the fully automatic computerized flat knitting machine automatically draws the arc pattern corresponding to the inner or outer stitch increase knitting mode. This eliminates the need for manual drawing based on calculating the number of increase rows and stitches, and can also be flexibly applied to the inner and outer stitch increase needs of irregular garments. This not only saves time on manual drawing but also reduces the drawing error rate, significantly improving the efficiency of garment pattern making. Attached Figure Description
