The present invention discloses a method for producing unidirectional hybrid-braided fabrics, including: preparing a first layer of 0° warps; preparing a second layer of 0° warps to a Nth layer of 0° warps; preparing an auxiliary layer of wefts; preparing binding yarns; laying and hybrid-braiding the materials prepared in steps 1-4 to obtain unidirectional hybrid-braided fabrics; and cutting and winding. The 0° warps and wefts of the invention are made of two or more layers of different fibers that are laid in a single direction and finally hybrid-braided. Therefore, two or more different types of materials can be laid, thereby ensuring the uniform distribution and thickness of the fibers in different areas of the hybrid-braided fabric. The grammage of different 0° warp fiber layers can be adjusted freely in a range of 30-3000 grams/m.sup.2, thereby realizing performance and cost designability of a composite material.

The invention relates to a plush pile knitted product and a knitting machine for the production thereof. Said knitted product comprises knitting threads (9), weft threads (10, 11), and front (14) and rear (12) plush threads, whereas the rear plush threads (12) are cut off at given intervals (a) to form plush pile on the front surface of the product. Said knitting machine comprises a housing (26). On the housing (26), over the entire length of the machine multiple closing safety plates (23) that can move vertically, and push plates (22) for pressing the weft threads (10 and 11) are mounted. Each rear plush plate (8) comprises a cutting disc (27) to cut the rear plush threads (12). Each of the threads (9,14,10,11,12) is fed in using a separate step motor (25).

A yarn-winding assembly mounted on a support is provided with a motorized spool and with an oblique spacing pin, between which a yarn is wound. The spacing pin is supported so that it can rotate about an axis of the motorized spool by unidirectional rotary support elements. The spacing pin rotates freely with respect to the spool when the latter rotates in the yarn unwinding direction and the former is retained from rotating by stop elements, and is instead integral with the spool when the spool rotates in the opposite yarn rewinding direction.

A method and system detect and remotely manage sensors and/or devices for feeding textile and/or metallic yarns on textile machines. Each textile machine includes an electronic control unit electrically connected to the sensors and/or feeding devices for receiving identifiers associated with a sensor and/or feeding device, and data and operating parameters representing a sensor and/or feeding device operating state. A first communication system is associated with the electronic control unit. Wireless communication between the electronic control unit and a portable electronic device is by a second wireless communication system with a display interface. The electronic control unit transmits the identifiers to the portable electronic device. The portable electronic device processes the identifiers to generate menus with selectable entries associated with the textile machines. Each menu represents the number/type of sensors and/or feeding devices installed. The main menu is displayed with selectable entries on the portable electronic device display interface.

The invention relates to an apparatus for presenting threads for loop-forming tools, arranged in at least one row, of a textile machine having a thread guide apparatus having at least one rotary element (4, 5, 20, 21, 30, 31, 40, 41) having at least one thread guide (20a, 20b, 21a, 21b 30a, 30b, 40a, 40b), said thread guide apparatus being configured to lay a thread back and forth in two directions (HI, HR) in each case in front of a row of the tools in an entire stroke range (BG). The thread guide apparatus has at least two rotary elements (4, 5) arranged as a pair, wherein the rotary elements (4, 5, 20, 21, 30, 31, 40, 41) of a pair are arranged eccentrically with respect to one another and one above another in the axial direction, and wherein the rotary elements (4, 5) of a pair are drivable in opposite directions of rotation (R1, R2). Each rotary element (4, 5, 20, 21, 30, 31, 40, 41) has at least one thread guide (4a, 4b, 4c, 5a, 4b, 4c, 20a, 20b, 21a, 21b, 30a, 30b, 40a, 40b), configured as a driver element, for laying the thread in one of the directions (HI, HR).
