WARP INSERTION AND WARP CHAIN KNITTED CHAIN STRUCTURE FOR KNITTED NET, AND BALE NET WRAP USING SAME
20230002942 · 2023-01-05 ·

A warp-inserted warp chain knitted chain structure for knitted net is disclosed, which is formed by two parts, i.e., a warp-knitted chain and an insertion warp plainly and straightly inserted into the warp-knitted chain. The warp-knitted chain is formed by serially connecting loop links formed through warp knitting of looping fibers. The denier of the warp-knitted chain is 3 times the denier A of the looping fibers. The ratio of the denier A of the looping fibers to the denier C of the insertion warp is less than or equal to 2.33. In a baling net using the same, under the same knitted chain denier, the insertion warp and the warp-knitted chain are used to jointly bear the warp load, such that the insertion warp does not bend, and the strength of the knitted chain is improved, thus improving the overall strength of the baling net.

Textile for shoe upper and shoe body including the same
11535960 · 2022-12-27 · ·

A woven textile for shoe upper includes a main body. The main body includes a woven portion and at least one braiding portion. The main body defines a horizontal direction and a longitudinal direction. The woven portion includes a plurality of longitudinal threads aligned along the horizontal direction. Each of the longitudinal threads extends along the longitudinal direction. Two ends of the woven portion along the longitudinal direction are a first end and a second end. At least one of the longitudinal threads extends and is knotted itself from the first end or the second end of the woven portion away from the woven portion to form the at least one braiding portion.

Tubular warp knit spacer fabric
11530501 · 2022-12-20 · ·

A warp knitting system may knit a seamless tube of fabric. The fabric may have a spacer between outer and inner fabric layers. The knitting system may have first and second needle guide systems. The first and second needle guide systems may each have selectively linked needle bed sections that guide respective needles. A guide bar system may have guide bars that dispense strands of material during knitting. Each guide bar may be positioned using a respective guide bar positioner. The guide bar system may be shifted relative to the needles using a rotational positioner. The needle guide systems and guide bar system may be formed from selectively coupled links. The selectively coupled links may be configured to adjust the diameter of the tube of fabric to a desired value. The thickness of the tube may be adjusted by adjusting a gap between the first and second needle guide systems.

System for performing dynamic production and knitting machine work management
11505882 · 2022-11-22 · ·

The invention provides a system for performing dynamic production and knitting machine work management comprising a production demand management unit, an advanced scheduling management unit, a cloth pattern storage unit and a manufacturing execution unit. The production demand management unit receives at least one production demand data. The advanced scheduling management unit generates a production scheduling data according to working conditions of a plurality of knitting machines and the production demand data. The cloth pattern storage unit stores a plurality of knitting machine work setting data. The manufacturing execution unit controls each knitting machine to extract one of the plurality of knitting machine work setting data from the cloth pattern storage unit based on a production cloth pattern data. The knitting machine work setting data is forcibly deleted by the knitting machine when a knitting number meets a set value defined by the knitting number limiting data.

TOPOGRAPHICALLY CONFORMING GARMENTS

Advances in actuating fabrics could enable a paradigm shift in the field of smart wearables by dynamically fitting themselves to the unique topography of the human body. Active fabrics and fitting mechanisms are described herein that enable garments to conform around surface concavities without requiring high elasticity or a multiplicity of closure devices. Advanced materials and systems innovations (1) enable novel garment manufacturing and application strategies, (2) facilitate topographical fitting (spatial actuation) through garment architectural design, and (3) provide tunable NiTi-based SMA actuation temperatures to enable actuation on the surface of human skin. Such fabrics and garments are usable in a variety of fields including medical compression, technical sportswear, exosuits, space suits and components thereof, or non-garment applications.
