Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to functional knitted fabrics, curtains and Venetian blinds, and more specifically, to functional knitted fabrics, curtains and Venetian blinds capable of providing a variety of functions. Background Technology

[0002] Among fabrics, there are woven fabrics that are woven segment by segment using a structure in which warp and weft yarns interweave, and there are knitted fabrics that are knitted stitch by stitch by forming loops (coils).

[0003] Fabrics are used in all fields based on their properties.

[0004] In recent years, product development efforts have been continuously advancing to give fabrics new functionalities while maintaining their inherent properties.

[0005] For example, a heat-insulating fabric is known (for example, see Patent Document 1), which consists of a lower layer and an upper layer. The lower layer is composed of weft yarns and warp yarns orthogonally made of fiber filament material containing PET / DTY filaments or polyester filaments. The upper layer is composed of weft yarns composed of fiber filaments containing PET / DTY filaments or polyester filaments orthogonally made of aluminum ribbon yarns. The upper layer is integrally woven onto the upper surface of the lower layer by a knotting yarn composed of fiber filaments.

[0006] In addition, a sunshade fabric (see, for example, Patent Document 2) is known to be breathable, and in a woven fabric containing aluminum strips as raw silk, the width of the aluminum strips is 0.7 mm or more and 1.3 mm or less, the thickness is 30 μm or more and 40 μm or less, and the fineness of the weft yarns is 300 denier or more and 600 denier or less.

[0007] Existing technical documents

[0008] Patent documents:

[0009] Patent Document 1: Korean Patent No. 10-0930300

[0010] Patent Document 2: Korean Utility Model Publication No. 20-2014-0000308 Summary of the Invention

[0011] The problem the invention aims to solve

[0012] By using aluminum strips in fabrics, especially woven fabrics, it is possible to give the fabrics heat insulation and sun shading functions, such as the heat insulation fabric described in Patent Document 1 above and the sun shading fabric described in Patent Document 2 above.

[0013] However, as it is a woven fabric, it has disadvantages such as lack of elasticity, poor breathability, and easy wrinkling.

[0014] On the other hand, the development of products that endow fabrics, especially knitted fabrics, with functionality is still insufficient.

[0015] The present invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide a functional knitted fabric, namely a functional knitted fabric, a curtain and a Venetian blind.

[0016] Solution for solving the problem

[0017] After conducting in-depth research to solve the above-mentioned problems, the inventors discovered that by inserting a strip film between continuous coils and constraining the strip film with the first yarn portion and the second yarn portion, the above-mentioned problems can be solved, thus completing the present invention.

[0018] The present invention relates to a functional knitted fabric, namely a functional knitted material, wherein the functional knitted material comprises: a loop portion, which is formed by arranging a plurality of continuous loops in a parallel manner; a strip membrane located between adjacent continuous loops; a first yarn portion, which is woven into continuous loops and located on one side of the loop portion; and a second yarn portion, which is woven into continuous loops and located on the other side of the loop portion, wherein the strip membrane is constrained by the first yarn portion and the second yarn portion.

[0019] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, the thickness of the strip film is preferably 7μm to 30μm, and the width of the strip film is preferably 0.25mm to 1.5mm. The strip film is inserted and the loop section, the first yarn section and the second yarn section are continuously knitted by a warp knitting machine.

[0020] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, preferably, the two sides of the strip film abut against adjacent continuous loops.

[0021] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, it is preferable that the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion is thicker than the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion, the first yarn portion side of the strip membrane is covered by the first yarn portion, and a portion of the second yarn portion side is exposed.

[0022] Furthermore, in the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, it is preferable that the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion is thicker than the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion, and a pattern is drawn on the first yarn portion.

[0023] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, the strip film is preferably transparent or semi-transparent.

[0024] In addition, the strip film is preferably an aluminum vapor-deposited film with aluminum vapor deposited on it.

[0025] In addition, the strip membrane is preferably a milky white membrane containing titanium dioxide.

[0026] The present invention relates to a curtain made of the above-mentioned functional knitted fabric.

[0027] The present invention is a Venetian blind consisting of the above-mentioned functional knitted fabric and a mesh-like knitted fabric, which are arranged alternately.

[0028] At this point, the preferred mesh knitted fabric is woven from a loop section and a second yarn section.

[0029] Invention Effects

[0030] The functional knitted fabric of the present invention is a knitted fabric composed of a loop portion, a strip membrane, a first yarn portion and a second yarn portion. Therefore, compared with ordinary woven fabrics, it has the advantages of excellent elasticity and breathability and is less prone to wrinkles.

[0031] Furthermore, functional knitted fabrics are not made of yarn alone; because they have inserted strip membranes, they can be given functions based on the strip membranes.

[0032] Furthermore, by processing this strip membrane, a variety of functions can be acquired.

[0033] For example, when the strip film is transparent or translucent, it can be used as a light-diffusing knitted fabric by imparting light-diffusing properties.

[0034] In addition, when the strip film is an aluminum vapor-deposited film, it can be used as a heat-insulating knitted fabric or an ultraviolet-blocking knitted fabric.

[0035] In addition, when the strip film is a milky white film containing titanium dioxide, it can be used as a heat-insulating knitted fabric or an ultraviolet-blocking knitted fabric.

[0036] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, since the strip film is constrained by the first yarn portion and the second yarn portion, it is possible to prevent longitudinal displacement of the strip film only relative to the loop portion, etc.

[0037] In addition, since the strip membrane is held between the first yarn portion and the second yarn portion, it can prevent it from curling to one or more sides.

[0038] At this point, by configuring the strip membrane so that its two sides abut against adjacent continuous loops, the functional knitted fabric can effectively perform its function based on the strip membrane because its surface direction is consistent with that of the strip membrane.

[0039] In addition, the strip film and continuous coils are arranged in a regular alternation, which also gives it a good sense of design.

[0040] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, by making the thickness and width of the strip film within the above-mentioned range, it is possible to continuously knit the loop section, the first yarn section and the second yarn section using a warp knitting machine while inserting the strip film.

[0041] In other words, it enables low-cost manufacturing.

[0042] In addition, it retains the characteristics of a knitted fabric without increasing its weight, thus offering excellent workability.

[0043] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, by making the first yarn thicker than the second yarn, although they are knitted synchronously, a dense structure can be formed on the side of the first yarn and a loose structure can be formed on the side of the second yarn.

[0044] Furthermore, by covering the first yarn side of the strip film and leaving the second yarn side exposed, different design aesthetics can be achieved on the front and back sides.

[0045] For example, when used as a curtain, by having the exposed side (second yarn side) facing outward, it can reflect sunlight and perform other functions, while by having the covered side (first yarn side) facing inward, one can perceive the unique softness and feel of the fabric.

[0046] In the functional knitted fabric of the present invention, by making the first yarn thicker than the second yarn, although they are knitted synchronously, a dense structure can be formed on the side of the first yarn and a loose structure can be formed on the side of the second yarn.

[0047] Furthermore, by having a pattern drawn on the first yarn section, for example, when used as a curtain, it can reflect sunlight by having the exposed side (the second yarn section side) facing outwards, and the pattern side (the first yarn section side) can be appreciated by having the pattern side facing inwards.

[0048] Since the curtain of the present invention is made of functional knitted fabric, it has the advantages of excellent elasticity and breathability and is less prone to wrinkling compared to ordinary woven fabrics.

[0049] Furthermore, since a strip membrane is inserted into the functional knitted fabric, it is possible to impart functionality based on the strip membrane.

[0050] Because the Venetian blinds of the present invention are made of functional knitted fabric, they have the advantages of excellent elasticity and breathability and are less prone to wrinkling compared to ordinary woven fabrics.

[0051] It should be noted that, like ordinary knitted fabrics, it can be home washed and ironed at low temperatures.

[0052] Furthermore, since a strip membrane is inserted into the functional knitted fabric, it is possible to impart functionality based on the strip membrane.

[0053] For example, since the functional knitted fabric and mesh knitted fabric are arranged alternately in the Venetian blinds, the positions of the functional knitted fabric and mesh knitted fabric can be switched by sliding them, so that they can be used separately when natural light is needed and when the functions of heat insulation and ultraviolet blocking of the functional knitted fabric are needed.

[0054] Furthermore, in Venetian blinds, when the mesh knitted fabric is woven from the loop section and the second yarn section, it is possible to achieve integrated and synchronous knitting of both functional knitted fabric and mesh knitted fabric. That is, it is possible to achieve low-cost and high-efficiency manufacturing. Attached Figure Description

[0068] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] It should be noted that the same elements are labeled with the same reference numerals in the attached figures, and repeated descriptions are omitted.

[0070] In addition, unless otherwise specified, the positional relationships such as up, down, left, and right are all based on the positional relationships shown in the attached diagram.

[0071] Furthermore, the scale of the attached drawings is not limited to the scale shown in the illustration.

[0072] (First Embodiment)

[0073] First, a first embodiment of the functional knitted fabric of the present invention will be described.

[0074] The functional knitted fabric of the first embodiment is a sheet-like fabric woven from yarn with a prescribed strip membrane inserted. Therefore, compared to ordinary woven fabrics, it has the advantages of excellent elasticity and breathability, and is less prone to wrinkling.

[0075] Here, the material of the yarn used in functional knitted fabrics (including the first yarn and the second yarn described below) is not particularly limited. Natural fibers such as cotton, linen, flax, wool, cashmere, silk, and jute, as well as synthetic fibers such as polyester, polyamide, polyurethane, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyethylene, and polystyrene, or blended fibers or core-sheath composite fibers of the above fibers are acceptable.

[0076] In addition, the yarn can be either raw silk or processed silk. From the perspective of strength and design, the first yarn is preferably processed silk, while from the perspective of visibility and lightweighting of the tape film, the yarn of the continuous loop and the second yarn are preferably raw silk.

[0077] Functional knitted fabrics are not made of yarn alone; they have a strip-like membrane.

[0078] Therefore, functional knitted fabrics have functions based on strip membranes.

[0079] In addition, in the functional knitted fabric 1, a variety of functions can be given by treating the strip film.

[0080] It should be noted that for details regarding the zona fascia, please refer to the following content.

[0081] Figure 1(a) is a top view showing one side of the functional knitted fabric of the first embodiment, and Figure 1(b) is a top view showing the other side of the functional knitted fabric shown in Figure 1(a).

[0082] It should be noted that in the functional knitted fabric of Figure 1, one side is regarded as the front side and the other side as the back side.

[0083] As shown in Figure 1(a), a first yarn portion 10, which is densely woven from a first yarn, is provided on one side of the functional knitted fabric 1, and the first yarn portion 10 is covered by a strip film 31.

[0084] On the other hand, as shown in FIG1(b), a second yarn portion 20 loosely woven from the second yarn is provided on the other side of the functional knitted fabric 1, which is in a state of being partially exposed on the strip membrane 31.

[0085] In this way, by making the weaving patterns of the first yarn portion 10 and the second yarn portion 20 different, different design senses can be given to the front and back sides of the functional knitted fabric 1.

[0086] In other words, when used for interior decoration (window sills), the more the functional film is exposed on the outer surface of the window, the more functional it becomes.

[0087] In addition, by controlling the movement of the first yarn 10a on the front side (mainly the inner side), the front side can be made into a solid color texture or a jacquard texture.

[0088] It should be noted that for details regarding the first yarn section 10 and the second yarn section 20, please refer to the following description.

[0089] In addition, since the functional knitted fabric 1 can give different design feel to the front and back, it can be used for clothing (including lining), bags, curtains, flat curtains, Venetian blinds and other purposes.

[0090] Figure 2 This is a Y-direction side view diagram showing a portion of the side of the functional knitted fabric shown in Figure 1(a) when enlarged.

[0091] like Figure 2 As shown, the functional knitted fabric 1 has a first yarn portion 10, a second yarn portion 20, and a base portion 30 held between the first yarn portion 10 and the second yarn portion 20.

[0092] That is, in the functional knitted fabric 1, the strip membrane 31 included in the base part 30 is constrained from both sides by the first yarn part 10 and the second yarn part 20.

[0093] Therefore, longitudinal displacement of the strip film 31 relative to the continuous coil 32 can be prevented.

[0094] In addition, it can prevent the strip membrane 31 from curling to one side or the other side.

[0095] Figure 3 This is a top view showing a portion of the base of the functional knitted fabric shown in Figure 1(a).

[0096] that is, Figure 3 The description of the first yarn section 10 and the second yarn section 20 is omitted.

[0097] like Figure 3 As shown, the base part 30 is composed of a coil part 32a in which a plurality of continuous coils 32 are arranged side by side and a strip film 31 inserted between adjacent continuous coils 32.

[0098] In this way, in the base part 30, the coil part 32a and the strip film 31 are arranged alternately and located on the same plane.

[0099] It should be noted that the adjacent continuous coils 32 and the strip film 31 are not directly connected together.

[0100] The continuous coil 32 is a so-called chained structure in which the coil is continuous in the longitudinal (warp) direction.

[0101] It should be noted that one continuous loop 32 is woven from one yarn.

[0102] Moreover, the multiple continuous coils 32 all have the same structure.

[0103] The coil section 32a is composed of multiple continuous coils 32 arranged in parallel at equal intervals.

[0104] It should be noted that adjacent continuous loops 32 are connected to each other via the first yarn and the second yarn.

[0105] The fineness of the yarn constituting the continuous loop 32 is preferably 30 dtex to 100 dtex.

[0106] It should be noted that the fineness of the yarn mentioned above is selected when planning the thickness of the fabric.

[0107] If the fineness of the yarn constituting the continuous loop 32 is less than 30 dtex, compared with the fineness of the yarn within the above range, the loop may be more susceptible to damage due to impact or other factors.

[0108] On the other hand, if the fineness of the yarn constituting the continuous loop 32 exceeds 100 dtex, compared with when the fineness of the yarn is within the aforementioned range, there is a disadvantage that the yarn's sliding ability relative to the strip membrane 31 becomes worse (stuck), making it difficult to weave. In addition, since the proportion of the strip membrane 31 in the functional knitted fabric 1 becomes smaller, there is a possibility that the intended function may not be fully realized.

[0109] The strip membrane 31 is a strip-shaped membrane. For example, it is obtained by slitting a sheet-like membrane into thin strips.

[0110] The materials used for the aforementioned films may include ionomer films, polyethylene films, polyvinyl chloride films, polyvinylidene chloride films, polyvinyl alcohol films, polypropylene films, polyester films, polycarbonate films, polystyrene films, polyacrylonitrile films, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer films, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer films, ethylene-methacrylic acid copolymer films, nylon films, etc.

[0111] The strip film 31 is configured such that its two sides in the width direction (transverse direction) perpendicular to the length direction (longitudinal direction) abut against the adjacent continuous coil 32.

[0112] That is, it is configured so that no gap is generated between the strip 31 and the continuous coil 32 along the length direction.

[0113] Accordingly, the functional knitted fabric 1 has excellent strength due to its dense structure, and also has good design due to the regular alternation of the strip film 31 and the continuous loops 32.

[0114] In addition, the strip membrane 31 is configured so that it will not twist.

[0115] That is, the surface direction of the functional knitted fabric 1 is consistent with the surface direction of the strip film 31.

[0116] Accordingly, the functional knitted fabric 1 can effectively perform the function based on the strip membrane 31.

[0117] The thickness of the strip membrane 31 is preferably 7 μm to 30 μm.

[0118] If the thickness of the strip membrane 31 is less than 7 μm, compared with the thickness within the above range, it has the disadvantage that the membrane material is prone to stretching and breakage.

[0119] On the other hand, if the thickness of the strip film 31 exceeds 30 μm, compared with the thickness being within the above range, there is a disadvantage that the knitted fabric will lose its unique hand feel due to the increased weight and the imparting of rigidity.

[0120] The width of the strip membrane 31 is preferably 0.25 mm to 1.5 mm, more preferably 0.5 mm to 1.1 mm.

[0121] If the width of the strip membrane 31 is less than 0.25 mm, it is prone to twisting compared to when the width is within the above range.

[0122] On the other hand, if the width of the strip film 31 exceeds 1.5 mm, compared with the width being within the above range, there is a disadvantage that the knitted fabric will lose its unique characteristics due to the increased weight and the imposition of rigidity.

[0123] Furthermore, in the functional knitted fabric 1, by ensuring that the thickness of the strip film 31 is within the aforementioned range and the width of the strip film 31 is within the aforementioned range, the warp knitting machine synchronous knitting described later can be smoothly carried out.

[0124] Furthermore, as described above, the strip membrane 31 can be given diverse functions through processing.

[0125] For example, the strip membrane 31 is preferably transparent or translucent.

[0126] It should be noted that the manufacture of transparent or translucent films can be carried out using known methods.

[0127] It should be noted that, as long as it remains transparent or translucent, the strip film 31 can also be given functions such as antistatic treatment, waterproof treatment, matting treatment, ultraviolet blocking treatment, and flame retardant treatment.

[0128] If the strip membrane 31 is transparent or translucent, the light entering the strip membrane 31 will be scattered, so the functional knitted fabric 1 can at least be used as a light-diffusing knitted fabric endowed with light-diffusing function.

[0129] Furthermore, the strip film 31 is preferably an aluminum vapor-deposited film with aluminum deposited on it. It should be noted that the aluminum vapor deposition operation can be performed using known methods.

[0130] If the strip film 31 is an aluminum vapor-deposited film, since the aluminum vapor-deposited layer reflects heat, the functional knitted fabric 1 can at least be used as a heat-insulating knitted fabric that inhibits heat conduction, or, since the aluminum vapor-deposited layer reflects sunlight, the functional knitted fabric 1 can be used as an ultraviolet-blocking knitted fabric that blocks ultraviolet rays.

[0131] It should be noted that the strip film 31 can be deposited on one side only or on both sides.

[0132] Alternatively, a structure can be formed by bonding films deposited on only one side with their deposited surfaces facing each other. In this case, it is possible to suppress the detachment of the deposited aluminum.

[0133] In addition, the strip membrane 31 is preferably a milky white membrane containing titanium oxide.

[0134] It should be noted that the process of imparting titanium oxide to the film can be carried out using known methods such as coating.

[0135] If the strip film 31 is a milky white film, since titanium dioxide has the function of reflecting infrared rays, the functional knitted fabric 1 can at least be used as a heat-insulating knitted fabric to suppress heat accumulation, or, since titanium dioxide has the function of physically reflecting ultraviolet rays, the functional knitted fabric 1 can be used as an ultraviolet-blocking knitted fabric to block ultraviolet rays.

[0136] It should be noted that the strip film 31 may be coated with titanium oxide on only one side or on both sides.

[0137] Alternatively, a structure can be formed by bonding films with titanium dioxide applied to only one side in a face-to-face manner. In this case, it is possible to suppress the shedding of the applied titanium dioxide.

[0138] Back Figure 2 The first yarn portion 10 is woven into a continuous loop 32 on one side of the loop portion 32a. Accordingly, the continuous loops 32 are connected to each other on one side.

[0139] It should be noted that the material of the first yarn constituting the first yarn section 10 is as described above.

[0140] The fineness of the first yarn constituting the first yarn section 10 is preferably 100 dtex to 300 dtex.

[0141] If the fineness of the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion 10 is less than 100 dtex, compared with the fineness of the first yarn being within the aforementioned range, there is a disadvantage that the pattern generated on the front of the knitted fabric is not full and lacks design sense.

[0142] On the other hand, if the fineness of the first yarn constituting the first yarn section 10 exceeds 300 dtex, compared with the fineness of the first yarn being within the aforementioned range, it has the disadvantage of being too full, the fabric becoming thicker, and its softness as an interior decoration product being compromised.

[0143] On the other hand, the second yarn portion 20 is woven into a continuous loop 32 on the opposite side of the loop portion 32a. Accordingly, the continuous loops 32 are connected to each other on the opposite side.

[0144] It should be noted that the material of the second yarn constituting the second yarn section 20 is as described above.

[0145] The fineness of the first yarn constituting the second yarn section 20 is preferably 50 dtex to 150 dtex.

[0146] If the fineness of the second yarn constituting the second yarn section 20 is less than 50 dtex, compared with the case where the fineness of the second yarn is within the above range, there is a disadvantage that the fabric coordination with the first yarn section 10 becomes worse.

[0147] In addition, there is a possibility that it may be damaged due to impacts.

[0148] On the other hand, if the fineness of the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion 20 exceeds 150 dtex, compared with the case where the fineness of the second yarn is within the aforementioned range, there is a disadvantage of weakening the strip film effect.

[0149] In addition, it has the disadvantage of increased weight.

[0150] Here, in the functional knitted fabric 1, as described above, it is preferable that the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion is thicker than the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion.

[0151] That is, more preferably, the first yarn is thicker than the second yarn, and the fineness of the first yarn is within the above-mentioned range, and the fineness of the second yarn is within the above-mentioned range.

[0152] In this case, the first yarn side 10 can form a dense structure, and the second yarn side 20 can form a loose structure.

[0153] That is, even with the same tissue (structure), the degree of exposure of the strip membrane 31 can be changed by altering the fineness of the yarn.

[0154] As a result, the appearance of the functional knitted fabric 1 can be presented in a way that makes one side and the other side have completely different textures.

[0155] It should be noted that, from a design perspective, it is preferable to make the second yarn thicker than the first yarn, and the first yarn is raw silk while the second yarn is processed silk.

[0156] The functional knitted fabric 1 is a knitted fabric composed of a loop portion 32a, a strip membrane 31, a first yarn portion 10, and a second yarn portion 20.

[0157] Therefore, by inserting a strip membrane 31 as a so-called yarn insertion substitute and simultaneously weaving the loop portion 32a, the first yarn portion 10 and the second yarn portion 20, a functional knitted fabric 1 can be obtained.

[0158] That is, it can be continuously woven using a warp knitting machine.

[0159] Therefore, low-cost manufacturing can be achieved.

[0160] Figure 4 This is a structural diagram showing one side of the method for threading the first yarn relative to a continuous loop in the functional knitted fabric of the first embodiment. Figure 5 This is a structural diagram showing the other side of the method of threading the second yarn relative to the continuous loop in the functional knitted fabric of the first embodiment.

[0161] Specifically, in the functional knitted fabric 1, continuous loops 32 are woven in each column and a strip membrane 31 is inserted.

[0162] Moreover, such as Figure 4 As shown, simultaneously, the first yarn portion 10 is formed by passing the first yarn 10a through a predetermined loop.

[0163] In addition, such as Figure 5 As shown, simultaneously, the second yarn portion 20 is formed by passing the second yarn 20a through a specified loop.

[0164] At this point, as described above, by making the first yarn 10a thicker than the second yarn 20a, using raw silk as the first yarn 10a and processed silk as the second yarn 20a, a functional knitted fabric 1 with good design is obtained.

[0165] (Second Implementation)

[0166] Next, a second embodiment of the functional knitted fabric of the present invention will be described.

[0167] The functional knitted fabric of the second embodiment is a sheet-like fabric, which is knitted from yarn with a prescribed strip membrane inserted.

[0168] The functional knitted fabric 1a of the second embodiment is the same as the functional knitted fabric 1 of the first embodiment, except that the shape of the first yarn portion 11 is different.

[0169] Figure 6 This is a top view schematic diagram showing one side of the functional knitted fabric of the second embodiment.

[0170] It should be noted that since the other side of the functional knitted fabric in the second embodiment is the same as the other side of the functional knitted fabric shown in FIG1(b), its description is omitted.

[0171] like Figure 6 As shown, a first yarn portion 11, woven from a first yarn, is provided on one side of the functional knitted fabric 1a, and a pattern composed of the first yarn is provided on the first yarn portion 11.

[0172] It should be noted that, Figure 6 The design features roses, but is not limited to roses.

[0173] On the other hand, a second yarn portion 20, loosely woven from the second yarn, is provided on the other side of the functional knitted fabric 1a, which is in a state of being partially exposed on the strip membrane 31 (see Figure 1(b)).

[0174] Incidentally, in the first yarn section 11, the strip membrane 31 may or may not be exposed.

[0175] It should be noted that even if the strip film 31 is exposed from the first yarn portion 11, the degree of exposure is less than the degree of exposure of the strip film 31 from the second yarn portion 20.

[0176] In this way, in the functional knitted fabric 1a, by making the weaving patterns of the first yarn portion 10 and the second yarn portion 20 different from each other, different design senses can be given to the front and back sides.

[0177] It should be noted that since the other structures are the same as those of the functional knitted fabric in the first embodiment, their description is omitted.

[0178] Next, embodiments of the curtain of the present invention will be described.

[0179] Figure 7 This is a front view schematic diagram showing the curtain according to this embodiment.

[0180] like Figure 7 As shown, the curtain 4 is made of a functional knitted fabric 1 suspended on a curtain track.

[0181] Thus, since the curtain 4 is made of functional knitted fabric 1, it has the advantages of excellent elasticity and breathability and is less prone to wrinkles compared to ordinary woven fabrics.

[0182] Furthermore, since a strip membrane is inserted into the functional knitted fabric, it is possible to impart functionality based on the strip membrane.

[0183] Specifically, in the curtain 4, by having the exposed side (second yarn side) of the strip film 31 face outward, it can reflect sunlight and perform other functions, while by having the covered side (first yarn side) face inward, it can perceive the unique softness and feel of the fabric.

[0184] Incidentally, when the functional knitted fabric 1a of the second embodiment is used instead of the functional knitted fabric 1 of the first embodiment as the curtain 4, by having the exposed side (second yarn side) of the strip film 31 face outward, it can reflect sunlight and so on, and by having the pattern side (first yarn side) face inward, the pattern can be appreciated.

[0185] Next, embodiments of the Venetian blinds of the present invention will be described.

[0186] Figure 8 This is a front view schematic diagram showing the Venetian blind of this embodiment.

[0187] like Figure 8 As shown, the Venetian blind 3 has the aforementioned functional knitted fabric 1 and mesh-like knitted fabric 2 suspended on the blind track, which are arranged alternately.

[0188] In addition, the functional knitted fabric 1 and the mesh knitted fabric 2 are integrated.

[0189] In Venetian blinds 3, due to the presence of functional knitted fabric, it has the advantages of superior elasticity and breathability, and is less prone to wrinkles compared to ordinary woven fabrics.

[0190] Furthermore, since a strip membrane is inserted into the functional knitted fabric, it is possible to impart functionality based on the strip membrane.

[0191] Specifically, in the Venetian blind 3, light can enter through the mesh knitted fabric 2 by overlapping each other, and light can be suppressed by sliding the functional knitted fabric 1 to overlap with the mesh knitted fabric 2.

[0192] At this time, since the Venetian blind 3 has the aforementioned functional knitted fabric 1, the Venetian blind 3 can perform the functions of heat insulation and ultraviolet blocking based on the functional knitted fabric 1 in the whole or part of the area.

[0193] In the Venetian blind 3, when the mesh knitted fabric 2 is woven from the loop portion 32a and the second yarn portion 20, the functional knitted fabric 1 and the mesh knitted fabric can be woven simultaneously in one piece.

[0194] That is, it is only necessary to weave the loop portion 32a and the second yarn portion 20 in the entire Venetian blind 3, insert the strip film 31 in a local part of the functional knitted fabric 1, and then weave the first yarn portion 10.

[0195] In this case, since the Venetian blinds 3 can be woven synchronously, the Venetian blinds 3 can be manufactured at low cost and high efficiency.

[0196] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments.

[0197] In the functional knitted fabric 1 of the first embodiment, one side is used as the front side and the other side is used as the back side, but it is also possible to use one side as the back side and the other side as the front side.

[0198] It should be noted that the so-called "one side of the coil part" refers to the side in the direction perpendicular to the surface containing the coil part, and the so-called "other side of the coil part" refers to the other side in the direction perpendicular to the surface containing the coil part.

[0199] In the functional knitted fabric 1 of the first embodiment, examples of the strip film 31 include transparent or semi-transparent films, aluminum vapor-deposited films, milky white films, etc., but are not limited to these.

[0200] In the functional knitted fabric 1 of the first embodiment, the method of threading the first yarn 10a relative to the continuous loop 32 is not limited to... Figure 4 The method shown, in which the second yarn 20a is threaded relative to the continuous loop 32, is not limited to... Figure 5 The method shown.

[0201] In the Venetian blind 3 of the first embodiment, the functional knitted fabric 1 and the mesh-like mesh knitted fabric 2 are arranged alternately in the horizontal direction, but they can also be arranged alternately in the vertical direction.

[0203] Next, examples of functional knitted fabrics actually manufactured are shown.

[0204] Figure 9(a) is a photograph showing one side of a functional knitted fabric according to another embodiment, and Figure 9(b) is a photograph showing the other side of a functional knitted fabric according to another embodiment.

[0205] In the functional knitted fabrics shown in Figures 9(a) and 9(b), the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion is thicker than the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion, and the strip film is made of aluminum vapor-deposited film.

[0206] In the aforementioned functional knitted fabric, the first yarn portion of the strip membrane is completely covered by the first yarn portion, while the second yarn portion is exposed.

[0207] Figure 10(a) is a photograph showing one side of a functional knitted fabric according to another embodiment, and Figure 10(b) is a photograph showing the other side of a functional knitted fabric according to another embodiment.

[0208] In the functional knitted fabrics shown in Figures 10(a) and 10(b), the first yarn constituting the first yarn portion is thicker than the second yarn constituting the second yarn portion, and the strip film is made of aluminum vapor-deposited film.

[0209] In the aforementioned functional knitted fabric, a pattern is drawn on the first yarn portion side of the strip membrane, while the second yarn portion side is exposed.

[0210] It should be noted that the membrane is exposed in the areas with patterns, while it is mostly covered in the areas without patterns.
