The present disclosure provides a knitting apparatus, including: a frame; a primary yarn guide mounted on the frame; a primary yarn control rod connected to the primary yarn guide; a secondary yarn guide mounted on the frame; a secondary yarn control rod connected to the secondary yarn guide; a needle plate provided at lower ends of the primary yarn guide and the secondary yarn guide; a control cam separately drives the primary yarn control rod to control the primary yarn guide to move, and drives the secondary yarn control rod to control the secondary yarn guide to move; a tension spring connected to the control cam; and an electromagnet. A magnetic force of the electromagnet drives the tension spring to extend and retract, and further drives the control cam to rotate up and down.

An ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber with ultra-high cut resistance includes an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene matrix and carbon fiber powder particles dispersed therein. The content of the carbon fiber powder particles is 0.25-10 wt %. A method for preparing the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber with the ultrahigh cut resistance and a cut-resistant glove woven therefrom are further provided. The test proves that the glove woven from the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber with the ultra-high cut resistance is soft and comfortable, and does not have prickling sensation. According to the test of the Standard EN388-2003, the level of the cut-resistant grade ranges from 4 to 5.

An anti-cutting rubber-coated yarn includes a yarn body and a mixed rubber layer coated on the yarn body. A plurality of tiny pits is distributed on a surface of the yarn body, and the mixed rubber layer is attached in the tiny pits and is coated on an outside of the yarn body. According to the present invention, numerous tiny pits are made by etching on the surface of the existing yarn body, and simultaneously, molecular bonds on the surface of the yarn body are broken. In a dipping process, molecular bonding occurs between the rubber and the yarn body while the tiny pits are filled with the rubber and the tiny hard particles, thereby further enhancing adsorption fastness of the mixed rubber layer.

A silk blend ballistic fabric for creating comfortable and flexible bulletproof apparel includes a plurality of silk threads and a plurality of para-aramid fiber threads interwoven with the plurality of silk threads to create a fabric. An alternative embodiment of the disclosure generally comprises a hybrid thread comprising a silk thread and a para-aramid fiber thread twisted with the silk thread. The resulting hybrid thread can be woven to create the fabric. The resulting fabric is bulletproof and substantially flexible to create articles of clothing such as, but not limited to, trousers, shirts, and the like.

A method and system for forming fire and abrasion resistant yarns is disclosed. The fire and abrasion resistant yarn includes a fibrous bundle spun from a blend of fire retardant fibers and non-fire retardant fibers. The fibrous bundle is wrapped and integrated with a filament comprising a fire retardant (FR) material, and which is introduced during spinning of the fibers of the fibrous bundle so as to be wrapped about and help bind the fibrous bundle. The FR filament will be selected from fire/heat resistant and abrasion resistant materials, while the fibers of the fibrous bundle can be selected from natural or synthetic fibers or filaments having additional desired properties.

In the present disclosure, there are provided a polyethylene multifilament interlaced yarn having excellent weavability as well as enabling the manufacture of a protective product having high cut resistance and excellent fit by giving sufficient entanglements to the polyethylene multifilament yarn, and a method for manufacturing the same.

In one aspect, a method of manufacturing a protective textile may include steps of (a) twisting a first yarn with a tungsten filament; and (b) using a second yarn to cover the yarn-tungsten product generated in step (a). The yarn generated in step (b) is further twisted with an elastic spandex. In one embodiment, the first yarn is selected from a group of Nylon, Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), cotton yarn, bamboo fiber and Tencel. In another embodiment, a Polyethylene (PE) fiber is the second yarn, and the third yarn may include Nylon, PET or PE. The protective textile is advantageous because it is light, thin, soft and highly cut resistant. Also, it has great electrical conductivity and chemical stability, and it is not easy to deform after washing.

Provided is a cut-resistant polyethylene yarn, and more particularly, a cut-resistant polyethylene yarn which allows manufacture of a product having both excellent cut resistance and excellent wear resistance.

Provided is a cut-resistant polyethylene yarn, and more particularly, a cut-resistant polyethylene yarn which allows manufacture of a product having excellent cut resistance and providing excellent wearability.

Apparatuses and associated methods of manufacturing are described that provide for cut-resistant yarn structures. An example cut-resistant yarn structure includes a first cut-resistant core filament a second cut-resistant core filament. The yarn structure further includes a first covering yarn that is wound over the first cut-resistant core filament and the second cut-resistant core filament. The first covering yarn includes a core-spun yarn in which staple fibers are spun over a third cut-resistant core filament. The yarn structure also includes one or more covering layers wound over the first covering yarn that may serve as the exterior layer for the cut-resistant yarn structure. In some instances, the first and second cut-resistant core filaments include a core-spun yarn in which staple fibers are spun over the first cut-resistant core filament and/or the second cut-resistant core filament.
