Title:
METHOD FOR ANCHORING LENGTHS OF ADDITIVE THREAD/FIBER THREAD ON THE BACK SIDE OF A KNITTED FABRIC
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/1993/010297
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A method for anchoring lengths of additive thread/fiber thread (2) in a knitted fabric in an ordinary knitting process, for example, on a circular knitting machine, where a row of vertical needles (10) is continually and successively moved from a lower position up to an upper position and down to a lower position again during formation of knitted stitches (A) interlocked with each other. The fiber thread lengths (2') that are inserted during this ordinary knitting process are anchored in the knitted fabric by the thread ends (2a) of the fiber thread length being deflected backward relative to the knitting direction and brought down between two new stitches (A'', A'') formed by the repeated operation of the needles (10), in two adjacent stitch rows, and being anchored between said stitch rows by the closing of the insertion opening (B) therebetween by the new stitches (A) formed thereafter through the next repeated operation of the needles (10) and by the tightening of the formed stitches. In this manner the ends (2a) of the fiber thread length (2') are securely locked in and project out from the knitted fabric.
