Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of knitted fabric technology, and in particular to a moisture-wicking, quick-drying vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric. Background Technology
[0002] The Chinese people have a long-standing fondness for cotton fabrics. As a natural fiber, cotton is more environmentally friendly than other synthetic fibers due to its natural and renewable characteristics. At the same time, cotton is soft and comfortable, suitable for direct skin contact, and is widely loved in areas such as infant products, underwear, and bedding. The durability of cotton is also a major reason for its popularity; it is washable, sun-resistant, heat-resistant, and alkali-resistant. Cotton also has good moisture absorption, allowing it to absorb body moisture. However, when faced with heavy sweating, the hydroxyl groups (-OH) in cotton fibers absorb a large amount of moisture, significantly reducing the breathability of the fabric. Continued wear can result in a sticky, damp feeling against the body. Furthermore, the shallow grooves on the surface of cotton fibers hinder moisture wicking, leading to poor quick-drying properties. Therefore, high-cotton-content sportswear is rarely seen in the sportswear industry. Currently, some of the more well-known technologies for producing pure cotton moisture-wicking and quick-drying fabrics include Transdry® technology from American Cotton (a blend of water-repellent and hydrophilic cotton yarns in a specific ratio), moisture-wicking and quick-drying yarn from Guangdong Esquel (spun using Sirospun technology with 50% water-repellent and 50% hydrophilic cotton fibers), and C-Dry® moisture-wicking and quick-drying yarn from Huafu (which adds a certain proportion of hydrophilic, hydrophobic, and moisture-wicking auxiliaries to cotton fibers). The aim is to create a knitted fabric with a high cotton content (over 80%) and moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties through a reasonable yarn blend. While maintaining functionality, it also needs to meet current consumer demands for fashion and style. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems by designing a moisture-wicking and quick-drying vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric. This moisture-wicking and quick-drying vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric includes: a vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric, wherein both the front and back sides of the fabric are woven from bicomponent filaments and combed cotton yarn. The fabric is knitted using a cylinder knitting machine, employing four types of needles, with four sections forming a cycle; four rows form a complete structure, and the arrangement of the four rows consists of tuck stitch, float stitch, and loop stitch.
[0004] Of the four paths:
[0005] The first line consists of, in order: clustered structure, floating structure, looped structure, and looped structure;
[0006] The second route consists of looped weave, looped weave, floating weave, and looped weave.
[0007] The third type is floating line organization, clustered organization, looped organization, and looped organization;
[0008] The fourth route consists of looped organization, looped organization, floating line organization, and looped organization.
[0009] The first and third threads are threaded into bicomponent filaments and woven into the concave part of the front of the vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric, while the second and fourth threads are threaded into combed cotton yarns and woven into the convex part of the front of the vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric.
[0010] The combed cotton yarn is a moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn; the moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn has undergone special modification treatment, which gives the cotton fibers the function of wicking away moisture and drying quickly.
[0011] The bicomponent filament is a Sorona® / PET bicomponent, which is made by combining ordinary polyester PET and Sorona® PTT. This composite material is then heated to produce shrinkage and bending. Further heating will cause it to shrink into the shape of a helical spring.
[0012] The bicomponent filament has a specification of 5.5tex50D-8.3tex75D; the moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn has a specification of 27.8tex21S-11.7tex50S.
[0013] The raised portion of the vertical striped bubble texture fabric uses moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn. Huafu's moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn employs a unique method to modify the cotton fibers (primarily through pretreatment, washing, acid deoxygenation, washing, and oiling; during the oiling stage, hydrophilic softeners, fluffing agents, and moisture-wicking and quick-drying auxiliaries are added, and oiling is carried out at below 60℃ for more than 20 minutes). While retaining the original excellent moisture absorption of cotton fibers, it increases the rate at which moisture evaporates from the fiber surface and interior, thus giving ordinary cotton yarn good and long-lasting moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties.

[0015] Figure 2 This is a weaving diagram of the weaving process described in this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0016] A moisture-wicking, quick-drying, vertically striped, bubble-textured knitted fabric. Both sides are woven from bicomponent filaments and moisture-wicking, quick-drying combed cotton yarn, which will be described in detail below.
[0017] The recessed part on the front of the moisture-wicking and quick-drying vertical striped bubble fabric is made of Sorona® / PRT bicomponent filament, with the yarn specification preferably being 5.5tex 50D-8.3tex 75D. Because Sorona® / PRT bicomponent filament not only has comfortable natural elasticity after high-temperature shrinkage, but also creates an irregular yet natural bubble effect on the fabric after shrinkage, increasing the fabric's three-dimensionality.
[0018] The raised part of the moisture-wicking and quick-drying vertical striped bubble fabric uses moisture-wicking and quick-drying combed cotton yarn. The yarn specification is preferably 27.8tex21S-11.7tex50S. When selecting raw materials, high-quality combed cotton must be selected, and the cotton fibers must have the effect of moisture wicking and quick-drying to ensure that the knitted fabric has a high cotton content and good moisture wicking and quick-drying performance when it is designed.
[0019] I. Weaving Technique:
[0020] 1. The weaving equipment is a Xinlida K-S3F4 single-sided weft circular knitting machine with a cylinder diameter of 762mm (30 inches), a gauge of 28 needles / 25.4mm, 60 cylinders, 90 channels, and a total of 2640 needles. It is recommended to use high-quality needles to avoid defects such as needle marks and horizontal lines. Maintaining machine cleanliness, minimizing fly yarn and oil needles, and adjusting yarn tension are also important.
[0021] 2. The cylinder section uses four tracks, or four segments. The needles are arranged in the order ABABABABACDCCD CC DC, and four segments form a cycle. Each segment forms a cycle of four tracks to complete a minimum pattern.
[0022] 3. Triangular arrangement, such as Figure 2 As shown:
[0023] from Figure 2 It can be seen that four paths form a cycle, with the order of paths 1-4 as follows: the first path is a loop, a floating line, a loop, and another loop; the second path is a loop, a loop, a floating line, and another loop; the third path is a floating line, a loop, a loop, and another loop; and the fourth path is a loop, a loop, a floating line, and another loop.
[0024] 1. See the fabric weaving pattern. Figure 1 :
[0025] 2. Yarn threading method: The first and third threads are threaded with bicomponent filaments to form the concave part of the front of the vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric, while the second and fourth threads are threaded with combed cotton yarn to form the convex part of the front of the vertical striped bubble texture knitted fabric.
[0026] In summary, the moisture-wicking, quick-drying, vertically striped bubble fabric produced by this invention utilizes Sorona® PET bicomponent filaments. After dyeing and shrinking, the fabric achieves a natural bubble-like texture while maintaining natural and comfortable elasticity. The fabric is tight and structured, and its unique internal spiral spring-like mechanical structure makes it resistant to aging, breakage, and loss of elasticity. It is also washable, durable, and resistant to sun exposure. The addition of moisture-wicking, quick-drying combed cotton allows the fabric to possess all the advantages of cotton fabrics while effectively wicking away body moisture during strenuous exercise or heavy sweating, keeping the body dry. The fabric has a classic and fashionable style suitable for various types of clothing.
[0027] The above technical solution only embodies the preferred technical solution of this utility model. Any changes that may be made by those skilled in the art to certain parts of it embody the principle of this utility model and fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
