AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing knitted shoe uppers are prone to jagged lines when forming curved contours, affecting aesthetics, and complex patterns are difficult to weave continuously.

Method used

By employing a combination of horizontal integrated knitting and needle shifting to compress the number of knitting needles, a bent knitting structure is formed through flat knitting, ensuring the stability and continuity of the knitting structure and avoiding pattern splicing.

Benefits of technology

It achieves a natural and smooth bending knit structure, enhancing the aesthetics of the shoe upper, and allows for continuous weaving of complex patterns without the need for splicing the middle patterns.

Abstract

This application discloses a shoe upper with a bent knit structure, its knitting method, and a shoe. The shoe upper is knitted horizontally in one piece using a flat knitting machine, forming the toe area, right edge area, left edge area, middle area, heel area, waist area, and collar area. The bent knit structure is located in the middle area of ​​the shoe body. During the knitting process in the middle area, the bent knit structure is continuously and seamlessly formed by a needle-shifting operation that compresses the number of knitting stitches. This application achieves a continuous bent knit structure on the shoe upper through needle shifting, eliminating the need for stitch splicing and resulting in a natural and aesthetically pleasing shoe upper.
