Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of knitted fabric technology, and in particular to a breathable double-sided waffle knitted fabric. Background Technology
[0002] Double-sided waffle fabric has a clear, three-dimensional texture on both sides, making it more textured and visually appealing than single-sided waffle. However, when used in spring and autumn clothing, double-sided waffle has poor breathability due to its high density, and its overall elasticity and shape retention are also poor.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing double-sided waffle knitted fabric. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the defects in the existing technology and provide a breathable double-sided waffle knitted fabric with a textured knitted structure. The outer and inner layers of the recessed texture are perpendicular to each other to form small air cavities. It has heat preservation properties when static and good breathability, air circulation and heat dissipation when moving.
[0005] To achieve the above technical effects, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a breathable double-sided waffle knitted fabric, having an outer layer and an inner layer structure, wherein both the outer layer and the inner layer are waffle structures with concave and convex networks, the concave patterns of the outer layer and the concave patterns of the inner layer are perpendicular, the fabric is a knitting structure with one needle track on the upper needle plate and one needle track on the lower needle cylinder, and the knitting pattern is a complete knitting cycle of four rows. According to the arrangement order from the upper needle plate to the lower needle cylinder, the four rows of patterns are: the first and second rows are loops, loops; the third and fourth rows are floats, loops.
[0006] A preferred technical solution is that the yarn woven in the first path is a first yarn, the yarn woven in the second path is a second yarn, and the yarn woven in the third and fourth paths is a third yarn.
[0007] A preferred technical solution is that the first yarn is nylon or combed cotton, and the second and third yarns are both combed cotton. Fabrics made with nylon as the first yarn and combed cotton as the second and third yarns exhibit a more pronounced three-dimensional waffle grid pattern, providing excellent resilience and wrinkle resistance. This makes the fabric less prone to deformation and wrinkling, allowing it to quickly return to its original shape after wear, and also imparts a silky feel and drape. Fabrics made with combed cotton as both the first and second yarns are soft, skin-friendly, breathable, and highly comfortable to wear.
[0008] The preferred technical solution is that the yarn count of the combed pure cotton is 30~60S. 30S~40S is medium thickness, and the fabric has a certain weight and crispness, but is not too thick; 50S-60S is light to medium-thin, and the fabric is lighter, more flowing, and has better breathability.
[0009] A preferred technical solution is that the nylon is 100D / 36F or 70D / 36F. For garments requiring greater durability and a crisp, structured look, 100D / 36F nylon is used. For garments prioritizing lightness, softness, high comfort, drape, and a close fit, 70D / 36F nylon is used.
[0010] To obtain a fabric with better elasticity and breathability, the preferred technical solution is that one needle is removed from every other needle on the upper needle plate, while no needles are removed from the lower needle cylinder.
[0011] The preferred technical solution is that the yarn length of the first yarn in each strand is 39.2 ~ 39.7 cm / 100 stitches; the yarn length of the second yarn is 39.2 ~ 39.7 cm / 100 stitches; and the yarn length of the third yarn is 29.2 ~ 29.7 cm / 100 stitches.
[0012] This utility model features a breathable double-sided waffle knit fabric with a textured weave structure. The concave patterns on the outer and inner layers are perpendicular to each other, forming small air cavities. It provides warmth when static and good breathability, air circulation, and rapid heat dissipation when in motion. Attached Figure Description
