Description

[0002] Patterning forming of a flat knitting machine is a key process in knitting production, which mainly generates a process patterning map for guiding production by inputting detailed process data and adding related settings of forming processing. In this process, the forming module is a result of highly summarizing and integrating various combined knitting actions of the pattern in the process processing, and is mainly used for drawing a relatively complex knitting pattern. In order to clearly display the relatively complex combined knitting action pattern on the process patterning map, a simple representative color code is usually used to represent different pattern actions, and only the corresponding representative color code needs to be filled on the process patterning map during forming, so as to obtain a simple pattern action compression map.

[0003] However, in the actual patterning process of the flat knitting machine, the patterning pattern is usually placed in the area before the end line mark, and the modules, notes and drafts used in the patterning pattern are placed after the end line mark.

In addition, the modules of the same type of action pattern are sometimes not completed by a single module, but need to be cooperated by multiple similar or identical pattern modules.

[0043] The embodiments of the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, and therefore only serve as examples, and cannot limit the protection scope of the present application.

[0044] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs; the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application; the use of the terms "including," "comprising," "having" and "with" in the specification and claims herein are used to mean "including but not limited to" or "comprising but not limited to" or "having but not limited to" or "with but not limited to," and are not used to mean "consisting only of" or "consisting only of."

[0045] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, the technical terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish different objects, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number, specific order or primary and secondary relationship of the indicated technical features.

[0046] Reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the application. The appearance of the phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, nor is it necessarily independent or alternative embodiments to each other. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0047] In the actual knitting machine design process, the design pattern is usually placed in the area before the end line mark, and the modules, notes and drafts used in the design pattern are placed after the end line mark. When facing a very complex design pattern and a large number of module types, even dozens or more, the speed and accuracy of finding a specific type of module are reduced, and the efficiency of design is reduced. In addition, the same type of action pattern module is sometimes not completed by a single module, but requires multiple similar or identical pattern modules to work together. Similar or identical pattern modules and other different types of modules are stacked in the same area of the design pattern, resulting in a decrease in the speed and accuracy of distinguishing similar or identical pattern modules.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1-3 as shown, Figure 1 is a flowchart of an embodiment of a forming module design method provided by the present application; Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a module provided by the present application; Figure 3 is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a part color code provided by the present application. The forming module design method of the embodiment is applied to a knitting machine, which comprises:

[0049] Step S100, acquiring and storing a plurality of module type files, each module type file comprising a plurality of pattern files, and each pattern file comprising a plurality of modules.

[0050] Wherein, the module means the pattern module, which represents a set of action patterns with a color code. For example, as shown in Figure 2 Figure 2 represents a module, which includes color code 1, color code 2 and color code 3; wherein, color code 1 represents the module representative color code, color code 2 represents the combined action pattern, and color code 3 represents the last row of the module when in the row.

[0051] The color code comes from a color code table, which usually includes 0-255 color codes in total, some of which have the meaning of action, and some of which are undefined. For example, as shown in Figure 3

[0052] The pattern file refers to a digital container of a pattern project or a pattern task list, which usually corresponds to a specific design order, a piece of garment part (front piece, back piece, sleeve, collar, etc.) or a complete set of pattern actions required for a process layout. The pattern file usually contains 1-n (pattern) modules, which are arranged in the actual knitting order and collectively constitute all the knitting actions required for the garment piece or the task. In some embodiments, the pattern file is displayed in the plate-making software as a file that can be opened, saved and exported separately.

[0053] The module type file refers to a higher-level classified resource library file of the pattern file, which is equivalent to a pattern library or a module family index. The module type file usually contains 1-m pattern files, which are classified into the same type, i.e. into the same module type file, because they have the same process source, functional part or market series.

[0054] In some embodiments, a plurality of modules are pre-set with color codes, classified and stored in a plurality of pattern files respectively; wherein each pattern file includes a plurality of modules; and the plurality of pattern files are classified and stored in a plurality of module type files respectively; wherein each module type file includes a plurality of pattern files.

[0055] For example, the plurality of module type files respectively represent modules of different action types such as needle gathering, additional needle, inner additional needle, flat gathering, shoveling needle and even needle. The plurality of pattern files in a module type file respectively represent modules of one action type including modules of different processing modes, for example, needle gathering includes needle gathering up, needle gathering down or needle gathering up and down. The plurality of modules in a pattern file respectively represent modules of different representation modes, for example, front and back pieces gather needles together up.

[0056] ​​In some embodiments, after the plurality of module type files stored locally are opened by the plating software through the option of opening a folder, the plurality of module type files are obtained and stored into the plating software.

[0057] Optionally, the plurality of pattern files and the plurality of module type files can be named (identified) by the plating software. For example, the pattern files can be named as needle-in on top, needle-in on bottom, or needle-in on top and bottom, etc., and the module type files can be named as needle-in, needle-out, or needle-in.

[0058] In step S200, process data required for forming a forming module and a plurality of modules corresponding to the process data are obtained, and the forming module is generated based on the process data and the plurality of modules corresponding to the process data.

[0059] The process data refers to a series of specific parameters and instructions used to guide the knitting production in the process of plating on the flat knitting machine. For example, the process data includes but is not limited to the number of needles, the number of rows, and the knitting density, etc.

[0060] The forming module refers to the smallest reusable unit that encapsulates all knitting instructions for a group of actions that can independently complete the shape, needle-in and needle-out of a section (or the whole piece) of a garment piece, and can be directly embedded into the process plating diagram.

[0061] In some embodiments, the plating software first obtains (pre-stores or manually inputs) a plurality of process data required for forming a forming module, each piece of process data can select a corresponding module or not select a module according to the requirement; after determining the selected module, the plating software calls the module stored in the plating software according to the selected module (step S100), and automatically generates the forming module in combination with the process data.

[0062] Optionally, the selection of the corresponding module includes but is not limited to the selection of the module type file to the pattern file.

[0063] In some embodiments, after the plurality of module type files are stored into the plating software, a corresponding second note information is added to each pattern file, and then the process data required for forming a forming module and a plurality of modules corresponding to the process data are obtained, and the forming module is generated based on the process data and the plurality of modules corresponding to the process data.

[0064] The second note information is generated based on the plurality of modules in the pattern file. Optionally, the second note information refers to the module summary that automatically extracts the (knitting) features of all modules in the pattern file and then writes them in a short text or a tag list.

[0065] Optionally, the second note information can be added to the blank area or the border area (outside the module array) in the pattern file.

[0066] The embodiment adds corresponding second note information in each pattern file, realizes rapid screening and batch comparison through the second note information in the case of complex plate making and large number of modules, and improves the reuse rate and plate making efficiency of a large pattern library.

[0067] In some embodiments, the second note information includes composition information, position information and use information; first, an undefined color code in each pattern file is obtained, then the composition information, the position information and the use information are noted in the undefined color code to form a self-defined color code, and the self-defined color code is added in the corresponding pattern file, so as to complete the operation of adding corresponding second note information in each pattern file.

[0068] In the embodiment, the composition information refers to the composition structure of the plurality of modules in the pattern file, such as needle collection; the position information refers to the use position of the plurality of modules in the pattern file, such as use in the front piece (clothing) or use in the back piece (clothing); and the use information refers to the use mode of the plurality of modules in the pattern file, such as needle collection. In other embodiments, the second note information further includes other information, such as rule information or special identification.

[0069] Since the pattern file includes a plurality of modules, the module is composed of a color code; therefore, the undefined color code in each pattern file refers to the color code in the color code table except the color code used in the pattern file; the undefined color code includes the color code which is not defined itself and the color code which is defined itself but not used.

[0070] In some embodiments, the plate making software first confirms the color code used in the pattern file, then scans in the color code table to find out the color code which has not been used in the pattern file, that is, the undefined color code; the composition information, the position information and the use information and the like are written into the undefined color code according to the agreed rule; at this time, the undefined color code becomes the self-defined color code; and then the self-defined color code is reinserted into the blank area or the frame area in the pattern file.

[0071] Alternatively, the self-defined color code can be to define the color code which is not defined itself, that is, to write the composition information, the position information and the use information and the like into the color code which is not defined itself; the self-defined color code can also be to redefine the color code which is defined itself but not used, that is, to remove the previous definition and write the composition information, the position information and the use information and the like into the color code from which the previous definition is removed.

[0072] The embodiment uses undefined color codes as information carriers, adds the composition information, position information and use information of each group of modules to the undefined color codes to form self-defined color codes, and adds the self-defined color codes to the pattern file; in this way, the second remark information can be permanently attached in the existing plate making file format without occupying additional storage files, and the zero additional cost expansion is realized; and the second remark information can be copied, moved and managed together with the pattern file, solving the problems of easy loss and easy mismatch of the traditional external hanging document.

[0073] In some embodiments, the multiple modules in each pattern file are classified first to obtain multiple groups of modules, and then the corresponding second remark information is added to each pattern file.

[0074] The classification of the multiple modules in each pattern file refers to automatically grouping all the modules in each pattern file according to functions, organizations or action types to form multiple groups of modules. For example, all the modules in a pattern file are needle collecting modules, which can be classified into two groups according to functions, i.e., front and back pieces are collected at the same time, or only the front piece or the back piece is collected.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second remark information includes the composition information of each group of modules, the position information of each group of modules and the use information of each group of modules; the undefined color codes in each pattern file are obtained first, and then the composition information of each group of modules, the position information of each group of modules and the use information of each group of modules are added to the undefined color codes to form self-defined color codes, and finally the self-defined color codes are added to the corresponding multiple groups of modules.

[0076] In the embodiment, the composition information of each group of modules refers to the composition structure of the group of modules, the position information of each group of modules refers to the use position of the group of modules, and the use information of each group of modules refers to the use mode of the group of modules. The step of forming self-defined color codes in the embodiment is the same as the method in the above embodiment, and will not be described here.

[0077] In the embodiment, the multiple modules in the pattern file are classified first and then remarked, so that the second remark information is structured and presented in groups, which is more concise and clear.

[0078] Step S300: Classify the shaped modules to obtain multiple module types.

[0079] In some embodiments, after the plate making software generates the shaped modules according to the process data and the multiple modules corresponding to the process data, the shaped modules are automatically grouped according to rules such as functions, organizations, parts or process characteristics, modules with the same characteristics are grouped into the same category, multiple module types are obtained, and then displayed on the interface of the plate making software. For example, the multiple module types include needle collecting, needle adding and needle aligning.

[0080] In other embodiments, the multiple modules in the shaped modules can be manually classified.

[0081] Referring to Figure 4 as shown, Figure 4 is Figure 1 a flowchart of an embodiment of step S300 in the method; step S300 in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0082] Step S310: Obtain a plurality of modules in the forming module, and select a first pattern file from a plurality of pattern files based on the plurality of modules.

[0083] The plate making software matches the plurality of modules corresponding to the process data in the forming module with the plurality of modules included in the plurality of module type files stored in the plate making software, finds a plurality of pattern files containing the plurality of modules corresponding to the process data, and selects the first pattern file.

[0084] Step S320: Obtain a module type file corresponding to the first pattern file.

[0085] Since each pattern file is included in a corresponding module type file, the plate making software can find a plurality of module type files containing the first pattern file based on the first pattern file.

[0086] Step S330: Classify the forming module according to the module type file to obtain a plurality of module types.

[0087] The plate making software automatically classifies all modules in the forming module according to the classification rules (such as organization, function, and part) defined in the plurality of module type files to obtain a plurality of module types. At this time, the plurality of module types correspond to the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file.

[0088] The above steps S310-S330 can quickly and accurately classify the forming module.

[0089] Step S400: Obtain source information and first note information of the plurality of module types, and annotate the source information and the first note information on the edges of the module types to obtain a plate making pattern of the forming module.

[0090] The source information refers to where each module type comes from, for example, the source of the module type (see steps S310-S330) is the traceability of the module type file corresponding to each module type. The first note information refers to additional explanations of each module type, such as the function, applicable scenario, special process requirement, design intention, etc. of the module type. The first note information can provide more background information for the personnel using the module, helping to better understand and use the module.

[0091] The edge of the module type refers to the boundary area of the module type on the plate-making pattern diagram. By annotating the source information and the first remark information on the edge of the module type, the problem of overlapping of the annotation information and the main content of the module can be solved, and the clarity and neatness of the diagram are maintained.

[0092] In some embodiments, the plate-making software automatically extracts the source information and the first remark information of the plurality of module types, and marks them in the form of text or symbols at the edge position of the module type to form a complete plate-making pattern of the shaped module.

[0093] In some embodiments, the source information includes identification information of the first pattern file, identification information of the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file, and second remark information.

[0094] The identification information refers to information that uniquely identifies a file, such as a file name or a file number.

[0095] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5 is Figure 1 a flowchart of an embodiment of step S400 in the method; step S400 of the embodiment includes the following steps:

[0096] Step S410: Obtain the identification information of the first pattern file, the identification information of the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file, and the second remark information, and annotate them on the edge of the corresponding module type.

[0097] In some embodiments, the plate-making software obtains a plurality of modules in the shaped module, and selects the first pattern file from a plurality of pattern files based on the plurality of modules; at this time, the second remark information corresponding to the plurality of modules and the identification information (file name of the first pattern file) of the first pattern file can be obtained synchronously; then, the identification information (file name of the module type file) of the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file is obtained while obtaining the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file; finally, the first pattern file is classified into a plurality of module types according to the module type file, and the identification information of the first pattern file, the identification information of the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file, and the second remark information are marked at the edge position of the corresponding module type.

[0098] In other embodiments, after obtaining the plurality of module types, the first pattern file is traced back to obtain the identification information of the first pattern file, the identification information of the module type file corresponding to the first pattern file, and the second remark information, and then the identification information is marked at the edge position of the corresponding module type.

[0099] Step S420: Obtain the first remark information input for the plurality of module types, and annotate it on the edge of the corresponding module type.

[0100] In some embodiments, the first note information is manually entered in real time through the software interface of the plate-making software. The plate-making software sequentially obtains the first note information corresponding to the module type and marks it at the edge position.

[0101] This embodiment acquires and stores multiple module type files, each containing multiple pattern files, and each pattern file containing multiple modules. This achieves systematic management and storage of modules, enabling rapid and accurate acquisition of the required modules during the plate-making process, significantly improving plate-making efficiency. This embodiment also classifies the finished modules, obtaining multiple module types, and acquires the source information and first remarks information for each module type. The source information and first remarks information are annotated on the edges of the multiple module types, forming the plate-making patterns for the finished modules. The source information and first remarks information at the edges of the module types provide a reference for plate-making personnel, greatly improving the speed and accuracy of distinguishing similar or identical module types.

[0102] Another embodiment of this application also provides a flat knitting machine, see [link to relevant documentation] Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the flat knitting machine provided in this application. Figure 6 As shown, the flat knitting machine includes a processor 21 and a memory 22 coupled to the processor 21.

[0103] The memory 22 stores program instructions for implementing the plate-making method of any of the above embodiments; the processor 21 executes the program instructions stored in the memory 22 to implement the steps of the above-described plate-making method embodiments.

[0104] Specifically, processor 21 is used to execute computer programs to perform the following steps:
