Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of sock technology, specifically to a method for weaving a double-piece cut piece and a method for manufacturing a double half-sock. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the sports equipment industry, consumers have placed higher demands on the wearing experience of athletic shoes and outdoor shoes. Especially in professional sports scenarios such as soccer and basketball shoes, the fit and support of the shoe body directly affect athletic performance and protective effects. The sock liner (including the collar, tongue, and sides), as the core area for the foot to enter and exit the shoe, directly impacts the wearer's comfort and safety during exercise due to its elasticity and stability. Therefore, achieving efficient and high-quality production of sock liner panels has become a pressing technical challenge for the industry.
[0003] Currently, the traditional manufacturing process for half-sock covers mainly involves "single-piece knitting + multiple finishing processes": first, a single cut piece is knitted individually using a sock cover machine; then, this cut piece is transferred to subsequent finishing processes, undergoing multiple independent operations such as manual ironing, precise cutting, positioning sewing, and edge overlocking, ultimately forming a one-piece half-sock cover. In the single-piece knitting mode, the sock cover machine needs to produce each cut piece individually, severely limiting production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the above problems, this application provides a weaving method for two-piece cut pieces to solve the problem of low production efficiency of half socks.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the inventor provides a method for weaving two-piece cut panels, which involves integrally forming two half-sock panels, including the following steps:
[0006] A woven neckline unit; the neckline unit comprises two neckline panels forming a ring;
[0007] The heel unit is woven, comprising two heel pieces woven simultaneously. The two heel pieces are connected to the neckline unit and are located on both sides along the diameter of the ring, and are in a corresponding relationship with each other.
[0008] The side unit is woven, and the side unit includes two pairs of side pieces. Each pair of side pieces is connected to the opposite side of the two heel pieces, and the two pairs of side pieces are woven simultaneously. Each pair of side pieces forms a seam with the same side of the two heel pieces.
[0009] A woven tongue unit, the tongue unit comprising two tongue pieces, each tongue piece being followed by a corresponding pair of side pieces, and both tongue pieces being woven simultaneously.
[0010] Furthermore, a pre-laid pattern of empty stitches is arranged between the two neckline pieces to form a first pre-cut area; a pre-laid pattern of empty stitches is arranged in the middle of each heel piece to form a second pre-cut area; and the second pre-cut area is located on the extension line of a pre-cut area.
[0011] Furthermore, in the step of weaving the neckline unit, the neckline unit is woven in a circular pattern using the first yarn to perform forward and backward full-position knitting.
[0012] Furthermore, in the step of weaving the heel unit, the two heel pieces are woven in a sheet-like manner, using the second yarn and the third yarn respectively to perform forward and reverse all-position knitting.
[0013] Furthermore, the seam area between the two heel pieces and the side pieces is knitted at a half-space interval.
[0014] Furthermore, in the step of weaving the side panel unit, the two pairs of side panel pieces are woven in a sheet-like manner; wherein, the fourth yarn and the second yarn perform a forward and reverse all-position knitting to create one pair of side panel pieces; the fifth yarn and the third yarn perform a forward and reverse all-position knitting to create the other pair of side panel pieces;
[0015] Furthermore, the seam areas of the two pairs of side panels and the back heel panel are knitted at intervals of half.
[0016] Furthermore, in the step of weaving the shoe tongue unit, the two shoe tongue pieces are woven in a sheet-weaving manner, using the fourth yarn and the fifth yarn respectively to perform forward and reverse all-position knitting.
[0017] Furthermore, a sock knitting machine is used; five shuttles are used, with shuttle No. 3 in line 1 threading the first yarn; shuttle No. 4 in line 1 threading the fourth yarn; shuttle No. 4 in line 2 threading the second yarn; shuttle No. 4 in line 3 threading the fifth yarn; and shuttle No. 4 in line 4 threading the third yarn.
[0018] Includes the following steps:
[0019] The No. 3 shuttle of the 1st line is used to carry out a number of rounds of forward rotation and full-position needle to weave the neckline unit. After the neckline unit is completed, the yarn is cut and the shuttle is removed.
[0020] The No. 4 shuttle of the 2nd row and the No. 4 shuttle of the 4th row respectively perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to make the two heel pieces; after the two heel pieces are knitted, the yarn is not cut;
[0021] Shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 2 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 1 perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create a pair of the side cut pieces; shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 4 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 3 perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create a pair of the side cut pieces; after completing the weaving of the two pairs of the side cut pieces, shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 2 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 4 perform yarn cutting and shuttle removal.
[0022] Shuttle No. 4 of the 1st row and shuttle No. 4 of the 3rd row perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create two pairs of shoe tongue pieces; after completing the knitting of the two pairs of shoe tongue pieces, shuttle No. 4 of the 1st row and shuttle No. 4 of the 3rd row cut the yarn and unload the shuttle.
[0023] A method for manufacturing a double-sided sock cover, comprising the following steps: (The method describes a double-piece fabric weaving technique.)
[0024] The double-piece cut pieces are first sorted;
[0025] Place the prepared double-piece cut pieces onto the ironing board and iron them flat.
[0026] After the ironed double-piece cut pieces have cooled and set, remove the ironing board.
[0027] After shaping, the double-piece cut pieces are cut along the middle of the neckline and heel, and then a second adjustment is made to obtain two half socks.
[0028] Unlike existing technologies, the above-mentioned technical solution involves molding two half-sock panels into one piece, eliminating the need to weave individual half-sock panels. After all unit weaving processes are completed, two independent and complete half-sock panels can be obtained through a one-time separation process, which significantly improves production efficiency, shortens the product production cycle, and provides an efficient solution for the large-scale and high-precision production of half-sock products.

[0054] A method for weaving two-piece cut panels involves the integrated molding of two half-sock panels, with simultaneous weaving of both panels. The weaving process sequentially completes the molding of the neckline unit 10, heel unit 20, side unit 30, and tongue unit 40 according to a preset sequence, with each unit simultaneously forming its corresponding half-sock panel structure. This method eliminates the need for weaving individual panels; after all unit weaving processes are completed, a one-time separation process yields two independent and complete half-sock panels, significantly improving production efficiency, shortening the product production cycle, and providing an efficient solution for the large-scale, high-precision production of half-sock products.
[0055] The following combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 This invention provides a specific implementation method for weaving a two-piece fabric, which involves integrally molding two half-sock fabric pieces, including the following steps:
[0056] A neckline unit 10 is woven; the neckline unit 10 includes two neckline pieces 101 arranged in a ring.
[0057] The heel unit 20 is woven, which includes two heel pieces 201 woven simultaneously. The two heel pieces 201 are connected to the neckline unit 10, and the two heel pieces 201 are arranged on both sides along the diameter of the ring and are in a corresponding relationship with each other.
[0058] The side panel unit 30 is woven, which includes two pairs of side panel pieces 301. Each pair of side panel pieces 301 is connected to the opposite side of the two heel pieces 201, and the two pairs of side panel pieces 301 are woven simultaneously. Each pair of side panel pieces 301 forms a seam 50 with the same side of the two heel pieces 201 and the corresponding neckline piece 101.
[0059] The shoe tongue unit 40 includes two shoe tongue pieces 401, each of which is connected to a pair of corresponding side pieces 301, and the two shoe tongue pieces 401 are woven simultaneously.
[0060] Each neckline panel 101 is used to create the neckline of a half-sock, providing comfortable wrapping and anti-slip fixation for the ankle, preventing slippage or displacement during walking or movement. In the weaving of the neckline unit 10, two neckline panels 101 are connected and woven into a single loop, allowing them to interlock and form a closed loop structure, achieving simultaneous forming of both panels. Specifically, during weaving, a first yarn can be introduced to perform forward-turn full-position knitting, with the two neckline panels 101 simultaneously woven along the loop path, forming a closed loop without separate weaving, ensuring consistent neckline dimensions. The first yarn is preferably an elastic yarn, ensuring the neckline panel 101 can quickly rebound after stretching, achieving a snug fit around the ankle. The first yarn can be a spandex composite yarn, such as spandex core-spun yarn, combed cotton and spandex twisted yarn, or bamboo fiber and spandex ply yarn.
[0061] In some embodiments, the two neckline pieces 101 can be directly connected, that is, the two neckline pieces 101 can be directly woven into a continuous and complete large loop structure. In some embodiments, empty needles are pre-laid between the two neckline pieces 101, and a first pre-cut area 102 is formed by the isolation of the empty needle floating thread; this maintains a clear separable boundary between the two neckline pieces 101, which can significantly reduce the difficulty of subsequent separation, make the piece boundaries clear and the separation cuts flat, and avoid problems such as pulling, fraying, and loop unraveling during separation. At the same time, no additional cutting and positioning process is required, further improving the forming quality and overall production efficiency of the half-sock piece.
[0062] The two heel pieces 201 are positioned on both sides along the diameter of the ring formed by the aforementioned neckline unit 10, and are arranged correspondingly to each other in structure. One heel piece 201 can be separated along its midline to form two smaller heel pieces 201 that fit the outer side of the wearer's ankle, and the other heel piece 201 can be separated along its midline to form two smaller heel pieces 201 that fit the inner side of the wearer's ankle. These smaller heel pieces 201, belonging to the two separate heel pieces 201 and spatially corresponding to each other, cooperate to form the heel portion of a single half-sock, used to stably wrap the heel of the foot during wear, providing a snug fit, support, and protection.
[0063] When weaving the heel unit 20, the two heel pieces 201 are woven in an integrated synchronous weaving process that is continuously connected with the neckline unit 10. The two heel pieces 201 are symmetrically distributed along the circular weaving path and are synchronously formed into loops. In the step of weaving the heel unit 20, the two heel pieces 201 are woven synchronously in a sheet weaving method and are formed independently. Specifically, they are woven by introducing a second yarn and a third yarn respectively. One heel piece 201 is woven by feeding the second yarn, and the other heel piece 201 is woven by feeding the third yarn. During the weaving process, the machine head is controlled to alternately move forward and reverse to form a full-position needle, that is, after completing one row of full-position needle knitting by moving the needle forward, the next row of full-position needle knitting is completed by moving the needle in reverse. This cycle is repeated to form a flat and structurally uniform sheet fabric surface. At the same time, the two yarns move independently and do not interfere with each other, and the two heel pieces 201 are woven synchronously and continuously.
[0064] Preferably, the seam 50 area between the heel piece 201 and the side piece 301 is knitted in a half-position pattern, that is, the half-position knitting is performed in a cycle of one stitch forming a loop and one stitch skipping a loop. This can significantly reduce the number of loop layers and yarn accumulation in the seam 50 area, effectively avoiding the problem of the heel piece 201 and the side piece 301 being too thick and stiff, making the seam 50 area thinner and flatter, and improving the fit and comfort when wearing.
[0065] It should be noted that the terms "second yarn" and "third yarn" are merely identifiers used to distinguish the yarns used in the two independent heel pieces 201. Both can be woven using the exact same yarn specifications to ensure uniform overall material quality. It should also be noted that since each heel piece 201 can be separated along its center line in subsequent processes to form smaller heel pieces 201 belonging to the two half-socks, different yarns can be used to weave along the center line of each individual heel piece 201 according to the actual wearing needs of the two half-socks. However, it is essential to ensure that the yarn material used in the corresponding positions of the smaller heel pieces 201 on the two heel pieces 201 is consistent. This ensures that the final combined heel area of the single half-sock has a uniform material quality and performance, avoiding inconsistencies in feel, elasticity, and structural strength due to yarn differences.
[0066] In some embodiments, two separable small heel pieces 201 along the midline of each heel piece 201 can be directly connected, i.e., the two small heel pieces 201 are directly woven into a continuous and complete heel piece 201. In some embodiments, each heel piece 201 has a pre-set row of empty needles along its midline, forming a second pre-cut area 202 through the separation of the empty needles and floating threads; this maintains a clear separable boundary between the two small heel pieces 201, significantly reducing the difficulty of subsequent separation, making the piece boundaries clear and the separation cuts flat, avoiding problems such as pulling, fraying, and loop unraveling during separation, while eliminating the need for additional cutting and positioning processes, further improving the forming quality and overall production efficiency of the half-sock piece. It should be noted that when the first pre-cut area 102 exists, the second pre-cut area 202 is located on the extension line of the first pre-cut area.
[0067] The aforementioned side unit 30 includes two pairs of side panels 301; each pair of side panels 301 corresponds to the two sides of a single half sock, used to stably wrap around the sides of the human ankle when worn.
[0068] When weaving the side unit 30, it is continuously connected to the heel unit 20 and forms a seam 50 with the heel unit 20 and the neckline unit 10. The two pairs of side pieces 301 are woven synchronously using a sheet weaving method, and the four side pieces 301 are formed independently. Each pair of side pieces 301 is connected to the opposite sides of the two heel pieces 201 along the center line of the heel piece 201, so that each pair of side pieces 301 is connected to the corresponding side of the heel piece 201 and the corresponding neckline piece 101 above it to form a stable seam 50. Specifically, a fourth and fifth yarn can be introduced into the weaving process based on the second and third yarns. The second and fourth yarns perform forward and reverse all-position knitting to form a pair of the side pieces 301. The third and fifth yarns perform forward and reverse all-position knitting to form another pair of the side pieces 301. During the weaving process, the knitting machine head is controlled to alternate forward and reverse all-position knitting to form the pattern. That is, after completing one row of all-position knitting by forward rotation, the next row of all-position knitting is completed by reverse rotation. This cycle is repeated to form a flat and uniformly structured sheet fabric. At the same time, the four yarns run independently without interfering with each other, and the four side pieces 301 are woven synchronously and continuously.
[0069] The preferred method is to use a half-knitting technique in the seam 50 area of the side panel 301, which involves a half-knitting pattern of one stitch forming a loop and one stitch skipping a loop. This significantly reduces the number of loop layers and yarn accumulation in the seam 50 area, effectively preventing the problem of excessive thickness and stiffness at the connection between the side panel 301, the heel panel 201, and the neckline panel 101. This makes the seam 50 area thinner and smoother, improving the fit and comfort when wearing the garment.
[0070] It should be noted that the terms "fourth yarn" and "fifth yarn" are merely identifiers used to distinguish the yarns used for the two independent side panels 301. Both can be woven using the exact same yarn specifications to ensure uniform overall material. It should also be noted that the second and fourth yarns are used to weave a pair of side panels 301 for one half-sock, therefore the second and fourth yarns use the same material; similarly, the third and fifth yarns are used to weave a pair of side panels 301 for one half-sock, therefore the third and fifth yarns use the same material. This ensures that the final assembled half-sock side panel has a uniform material and performance, avoiding inconsistencies in feel, elasticity, and structural strength due to yarn differences.
[0071] The aforementioned tongue unit 40 includes two tongue pieces 401, each corresponding to a single half-sock tongue, used to fit snugly and cover the instep when worn. The two tongue pieces 401 are woven simultaneously using a sheet knitting method and formed independently. Each tongue piece 401 is connected to a corresponding pair of side pieces 301. By simultaneously weaving the two tongue pieces 401, the symmetrical structure and regular edges of the two pieces are ensured, simplifying the weaving process, improving forming efficiency, and allowing for direct separation to form two complete half-sock tongue structures, meeting the tongue's requirements for snug support and comfortable coverage of the instep. Specifically, a fourth yarn and a fifth yarn can be used for weaving. The fourth yarn performs forward and reverse knitting to create one tongue piece 401 (corresponding to the second and fourth yarns knitting a pair of side pieces 301); the fifth yarn performs forward and reverse knitting to create another tongue piece 401 (corresponding to the third and fifth yarns knitting another pair of side pieces 301). During the weaving process, the machine head is controlled to alternate forward and reverse knitting to form the tongue piece. That is, after completing one row of tongue knitting by forward knitting, the next row of tongue knitting is completed by reverse knitting. This cycle is repeated to form a flat and uniformly structured sheet fabric. At the same time, the two yarns run independently and do not interfere with each other, and the two tongue pieces 401 are woven synchronously and continuously.
[0072] To further clarify and fully explain the weaving method of the double-piece cut piece described in this application, and to illustrate its process and structural forming, the following describes the overall weaving process using a sock knitting machine as an example. Five shuttles are used: shuttle 3 in line 1 threads the first yarn; shuttle 4 in line 1 threads the fourth yarn; shuttle 4 in line 2 threads the second yarn; shuttle 4 in line 3 threads the fifth yarn; and shuttle 4 in line 4 threads the third yarn.
[0073] Includes the following steps:
[0074] The No. 3 shuttle of the 1st line is used to weave the neckline unit 10 by performing a number of rounds of forward rotation and full-position needle operation. After completing the weaving of the neckline unit 10, the yarn is cut and the shuttle is removed.
[0075] The No. 4 shuttle of the 2nd row and the No. 4 shuttle of the 4th row respectively perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to make the two heel cut pieces 201; after the two heel cut pieces 201 are knitted, no yarn is cut;
[0076] Shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 2 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 1 perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create a pair of side cut pieces 301; shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 4 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 3 perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create a pair of side cut pieces 301; after completing the weaving of the two pairs of side cut pieces 301, shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 2 and shuttle No. 4 of yarn line 4 perform yarn cutting and shuttle unwinding;
[0077] Shuttle No. 4 of the first row and shuttle No. 4 of the third row perform forward and reverse full-position knitting to create two pairs of shoe tongue pieces 401; after completing the knitting of the two pairs of shoe tongue pieces 401, shuttle No. 4 of the first row and shuttle No. 4 of the third row cut the yarn and unload the shuttle.
[0078] In some embodiments, a preset number of turns of forward full-position knitting are first performed, and then several turns of forward full-position knitting are performed using Haver needles to knit the neckline unit 10. By pre-forming a reference fabric layer, a stable starting base can be provided for the subsequent neckline circular knitting, effectively avoiding loosening, looping, or edge skewing of the starting loop of the neckline, and ensuring that the neckline circular structure is regular and the size is uniform.
[0079] In some embodiments, the neckline is woven with a folded double-layer structure. After the overall weaving of the neckline unit 10 is completed, the process jumps to the 3rd row of the 4th shuttle for the finishing stitch and tying treatment. The shuttle is used to lock and reinforce the edge loops of the neckline, so that the neckline fabric is naturally folded in half along its own width direction to form a tightly fitting folded double-layer structure. This not only enhances the structural strength of the neckline edge and prevents curling or unraveling during wear, but also improves the elastic wrapping force and fit stability of the neckline through the double-layer structure, making the half-sock fit the ankle better and less prone to slipping when worn.
[0080] In some embodiments, after the tongue unit 40 is woven, two shuttles, No. 1 shuttle of the 2nd row and No. 1 shuttle of the 4th row, are used to thread yarn of a different color from the main body of the fabric as the end waste yarn to continue weaving. The machine head weaves in a forward and reverse needle pattern. The specific process is to first continuously perform 6 rows of full-position needle weaving, and then use 4 rows of alternating empty needle weaving. The end waste yarn can be a double-core yarn with a core of 210D spandex and an outer layer of 150D×2 polyester. Through the transition weaving of this high-strength, high-elasticity waste yarn segment, the end loop of the fabric is effectively pulled and fixed, avoiding the fabric from bursting, unraveling or edge deformation due to yarn rebound and loop stress concentration after weaving. At the same time, the use of different colored waste yarn makes it easy to quickly identify and remove in subsequent processes without affecting the main structure and appearance integrity of the half sock piece.
[0081] This application also provides a method for manufacturing a double-sided sock cover, which involves weaving a double-sided cut piece using the aforementioned double-piece weaving method, including the following steps:
[0082] The double-piece cut pieces are first sorted;
[0083] Place the prepared double-piece cut pieces onto the ironing board and iron them flat.
[0084] After the ironed double-piece cut pieces have cooled and set, remove the ironing board.
[0085] Cut the shaped double-piece pattern along the middle of the neckline and heel to obtain two half-sock pattern pieces;
[0086] The two half-sock pieces are then processed a second time to obtain two half-socks.
[0087] The aforementioned first finishing process includes processes such as thread cutting and thread hooking. The areas of the double-piece cut pieces that were cut during the weaving process are hooked up. Through the hooking operation, the exposed thread ends after cutting are collected and hidden into the loop structure inside the fabric, so as to avoid the thread ends being exposed and affecting the neatness of the product appearance. At the same time, it prevents the thread ends from loosening, snagging or falling off during wear, thereby improving the appearance quality and reliability of the finished half-sock cover.
[0088] The aforementioned ironing board is specifically designed according to the outline of the double-piece cut pieces. Its forming size can correspond exactly to the double-piece cut pieces or be slightly larger, thus providing stable support for the double-piece cut pieces during ironing, ensuring their overall shape is neat and not easily deformed. During ironing, to prevent the double-piece cut pieces from shifting or curling, the easily curled bottom parts of the cut pieces can be fixed to the ironing board using small clips or other accessories, ensuring the stability of the fabric position during ironing. The flat ironing can be done using a steam iron for steam shaping. To prevent yarn shrinkage, burn damage, or loss of elasticity due to heat, the ironing temperature is controlled within a moderate range of 80–95℃, achieving flat shaping of the fabric while protecting the structural performance and appearance quality of the double-piece cut pieces.
[0089] The second finishing process involves trimming the cut edges of the fabric pieces, removing excess threads and burrs to make the edges neat and smooth; then binding the edges of key cut areas such as the neckline and heel, and sewing the corresponding neckline and heel together using the corresponding sewing process, ultimately forming two complete and independent half-socks.
[0090] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this application, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. Any technical solutions that are based on the essential concept of this application and utilize the content described in the text and drawings of this application, resulting in equivalent structural or procedural substitutions or modifications, as well as the direct or indirect application of the technical solutions of the above embodiments to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of patent protection of this application.
