Description

Weft-knitted double-sided knitted fabric and preparation method thereof Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of textile fabrics, in particular to a weft-knitted double-sided fabric and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the booming development of national fitness activities, people's lifestyles have undergone tremendous changes. In cities large and small, spending for health has become a new trend to improve quality of life. In turn, people are paying more and more attention to the wearability of sports fabrics, placing higher demands on various aspects such as recovery and comfort.

[0003] Patent CN215328603U provides a design and implementation method for a weft-knitted double-sided fabric with high recovery, high bulk, and high softness. Although this method achieves high elasticity and large opening, due to the presence of the inelastic side, the fabric of this structure is easy to unravel in the opposite weaving direction, and the side of the inelastic yarn is prone to snags and pilling, which will cause various inconveniences in actual production and use.

[0004] Patent CN101357005A provides a design and implementation method for weft-knitted fabrics that achieve anti-fraying effects by using heat-sealable elastic yarn. However, this method requires heat-sealable elastic yarn, which is costly and has unstable heat-seal properties. High-temperature processing of the heat-sealable elastic yarn also significantly reduces its elasticity.

[0005] Therefore, there is a great market demand for a fabric that has a tight feel, is not easy to fall apart, and has high elasticity and a large opening. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a weft-knitted double-sided fabric and a preparation method thereof.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A method for preparing a weft-knitted double-sided fabric comprises the following steps:

[0009] The invention relates to a fabric with a weft-knitted double-sided structure having a front side and a back side, wherein the front side and the back side of the fabric are both woven into a plurality of loops by yarn, and the loops have needle loops, loop columns and sinker loops;

[0010] The loops on the front and / or back of the fabric are woven with a first elastic yarn, a second elastic yarn, and an inelastic yarn. The first elastic yarn and the inelastic yarn are looped on both the upper needle plate and the lower needle cylinder of the knitting machine, and the second elastic yarn is looped only on the front or back of the fabric. The first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn are present at the needle loops and the loop posts of the loops on the front or back of the fabric. The first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn form a double-ply elastic yarn. The presence of the double-ply elastic yarn enhances the friction and cohesive force between the inelastic yarn and the elastic yarn. The second elastic yarn exerts a weft-direction tension at the intersection of the loop post and the sinker loop.

[0011] As a further solution, at least one of the first elastic yarn, the second elastic yarn and the inelastic yarn is provided.

[0012] As a further solution, the elastic force and thickness of the first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn are the same or different.

[0013] As a further solution, the fabric is a weft-knitted single rib structure or a weft-knitted double rib structure.

[0014] As a further solution, a single-sided woven non-elastic yarn is further added to the fabric, and the single-sided woven non-elastic yarn is looped only on one side of the fabric.

[0015] As a further solution, the non-elastic yarn is a long fiber with a denier of 10D-200D, preferably 20D-150D.

[0016] As a further solution, the non-elastic yarn is a staple yarn with a count of 8S-200S, preferably 20S-120S.

[0017] As a further solution, the first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn are both polyurethane elastic fibers with a denier of 10D-200D, preferably 20D-105D.

[0019] A weft-knitted double-sided fabric is prepared using the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] By weaving elastic yarn and non-elastic yarn on different sides, tension is generated in the weft direction, making the fabric tighter and less likely to fall apart. It can be cut at will and gives the fabric higher elasticity and stronger recovery, with good recovery and comfort. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] A method for preparing a weft-knitted double-sided fabric comprises the following steps:

[0030] Referring to FIG4 , a fabric having a weft-knitted double-sided structure with a front side and a back side is shown, wherein both the front side and the back side of the fabric are woven into a plurality of loops by yarn, and the loops have a needle loop 1, a loop column 2 and a sinker loop 3;

[0031] The loops on the front side of the fabric are woven by a first elastic yarn, a second elastic yarn and a non-elastic yarn, and the first elastic yarn and the non-elastic yarn are looped on both the upper needle plate and the lower needle cylinder of the knitting machine, i.e., they are looped at two positions, and the second elastic yarn is looped only on the front side of the fabric, i.e., it is looped only at one position, usually the upper needle plate, so that the loops on the front side of the fabric have the first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn at the needle loop and the loop post. The presence of the two-ply elastic yarn enhances the friction and cohesion between the non-elastic yarn and the elastic yarn. At the same time, the second elastic yarn exerts a weft-direction pulling force at the intersection of the loop post and the sinker loop of the loop, forming a pulling force, making the fabric tighter, not easy to fall apart, and can be cut at will, and giving the fabric higher elasticity and stronger recovery.

[0032] During specific knitting, the knitting machine is controlled so that the first elastic yarn and the non-elastic yarn are knitted together, while the second elastic yarn is knitted into loops on one side of the fabric alone.

[0033] By alternately weaving two elastic yarns and one inelastic yarn, while simultaneously connecting and bonding them, the fabric's unraveling resistance is enhanced. During knitting, the first elastic yarn and the inelastic yarn are both knitted together, forming upper and lower loops, while the second elastic yarn is looped only on one side. Therefore, the second elastic yarn overlaps one of the loops formed by the first and inelastic yarns, leveraging the mutual pulling between the different yarns to improve overall unraveling resistance.

[0034] The elastic force and thickness of the first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn are the same or different. Moreover, a plurality of the first elastic yarn and the second elastic yarn can be provided, and a plurality of the inelastic yarn can also be provided.

[0035] In addition, the fabric may also be added with a single-sided woven non-elastic yarn, which is looped only on one side of the fabric.

[0036] The fabric is a weft-knitted single rib structure or a weft-knitted double rib structure.

[0037] The non-elastic yarn is a filament yarn with a denier of 10D-200D, preferably 20D-150D; or the non-elastic yarn is a staple yarn with a count of 8S-200S, preferably 20S-120S. The first and second elastic yarns are both polyurethane elastic fibers or other types of elastic fibers with a denier of 10D-200D, preferably 20D-105D.

[0038] The knitting machine used for the fabric is a weft knitting circular knitting machine, and the machine model is E16-E60, and can be further selected as E28-E60.
