Description

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of knitting textile fabrics and, in particular, to a partially elastic shoe material and a method for its production.

[0002] With the accelerated technological modernization, not only are the requirements for shoe materials in the processing of the shoe upper material increasing, but more and more emphasis is also being placed on comfort, process, feel, quality, style, design, etc. Partially elastic shoe materials are usually a composite consisting of a non-elastic fabric and another elastic fabric laminated to achieve local elasticity of the fabric. However, the non-elastic part of the partially elastic shoe material still has a certain degree of elasticity, while the elastic fabric lacks excellent elasticity, which does not ensure better wrapping and comfort for the feet.The two materials must be sewn or glued to the vamp of the shoe, which requires additional processes and the use of environmentally harmful chemicals, and affects production efficiency.

[0003] It is an object of the present invention to provide a partially elastic shoe material and a method for producing the same, by means of which a local elasticity can be achieved in a specific area of ​​the shoe material, which allows the shoe material to change with the tension and relaxation of the foot muscles and enables a tighter wrapping of the foot by the shoe material.

[0004] To achieve the object, the present invention offers the following technical solutions: A partially elastic shoe material is provided, wherein the shoe material comprises a base layer knitted by means of a loop-forming ground guide bar GB1 from multifilament yarns to form a chain stitch structure, and a jacquard layer overlying the base layer. The jacquard layer comprises an elastic region and an inelastic region. The elastic region is knitted by means of a first pair of jacquard bars from multifilament yarns to form a loop structure. The inelastic region is knitted by means of the first pair of jacquard bars from multifilament yarns to form a fine structure. The loop-forming ground guide bar GB1 moves in a motion mode with a yarn laying notation 1-0 / 0-1 / / for knitting.The first pair of jacquard bars move in a motion mode with a yarn placement notation for knitting, which is generated by changes with a combination of any stitch count with four stitch distances of 0, 1, 2, and 3 as the basic offset unit. A partially elastic layer resulting from pattern guide bars is located on the elastic area.

[0005] Furthermore, the partially elastic layer resulting from pattern guide bars is knitted by overlaying the mesh structure layer with a spandex weft insertion.

[0006] Furthermore, the fineness of the multifilament yarn is 70-300D, while the fineness of the spandex in the spandex weft insertion is 70-1400D.

[0007] Furthermore, the composition of the multifilament yarn is selected from one of nylon fibers, polyester fibers, vinylon fibers, acrylic fibers, synthetic fibers, polyethylene fibers, aramid fibers and polymer fibers or a combination thereof.

[0008] Furthermore, the base layer is knitted from multifilament yarns by means of one or more loop-forming base guide bars in conjunction with the loop-forming base guide bar GB1, forming a warp-knit or weft insertion structure. The one or more loop-forming base guide bars are arranged on the loop-forming base guide bar in a motion mode with a yarn placement notation of 1-0 / 0-1 / / or 0-0 / 1-1 / / .

[0009] Furthermore, the elastic region is knitted from multifilament yarns by means of a second pair of jacquard bars in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars, forming a looped structure. The inelastic region is knitted from multifilament yarns by means of the second pair of jacquard bars in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars, forming a fine structure. The second pair of jacquard bars moves in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars in a movement mode with a yarn placement notation for knitting, which is generated by changes with a combination of any stitch number with four stitch distances of 0, 1, 2, and 3 as the basic offset unit.

[0010] A method for producing a partially elastic shoe material according to claim 1 comprises the following steps: Step S1: Knitting a base layer of the shoe material with a loop-forming ground bar GB1 made of multifilament yarns to form a chain stitch structure; Step S2: Knitting a jacquard layer for various types of shoe materials from multifilament yarns using the jacquard function of a first pair of jacquard bars, whereby a stitch structure must be knitted in the elastic region of the jacquard layer and a fine structuring must be knitted in the inelastic region of the jacquard layer; Step S3: Overlaying a spandex weft insertion area knitted with the jacquard bar using a weft insertion pattern guide bar, whereby the elasticity of the spandex and the deformable structural elasticity of the stitch structure in the stitch area of ​​the fabric create a partially elastic layer resulting from pattern guide bars.

[0011] Furthermore, in step S1, the loop-forming base guide bar GB1 moves in a movement mode with a yarn placement notation of 1-0 / 0-1 / / for knitting, and the base layer is knitted by one or more loop-forming base guide bars in cooperation with the loop-forming base guide bar from multifilament yarns to form a warp-knit or weft insertion structure. The one or more loop-forming base guide bars are arranged on the loop-forming base guide bar GB1 in a movement mode with a yarn placement notation of 1-0 / 0-1 / / or 0-0 / 1-1 / / .

[0012] Furthermore, in step S2, the elastic region is knitted from multifilament yarns by means of the jacquard function of the second pair of jacquard bars in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars, forming a stitch structure. The inelastic region is knitted from multifilament yarns by means of the second pair of jacquard bars in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars, forming a fine structure. The second pair of jacquard bars move in cooperation with the first pair of jacquard bars in a movement mode with a yarn placement notation for knitting, which is generated by changes with a combination of arbitrary stitch numbers with four stitch distances of 0, 1, 2, and 3 as the basic offset unit.

[0013] Furthermore, the fineness of the multifilament yarn is 70-300D, while the fineness of the spandex in the spandex weft insertion is 70-1400D.

[0014] The advantages of the present invention are as follows: The present invention provides a partially elastic shoe material and a manufacturing method that enables local elasticity in a specific area of ​​the shoe material, i.e., no elasticity in the inelastic area and good elasticity in the elastic area. The tightness of the shoe material is automatically adjusted locally, with the shoe material changing with the contraction and relaxation of the foot muscles to achieve a tighter fit and enhance performance in sports and fitness. Fig. 1 shows a simulation diagram of a shoe material according to the invention; Fig. 2 shows the structure of the shoe material according to the invention; Fig. Figure 3 shows the results of performance tests of a product manufactured by the process according to the invention.
