背景技术Background technique
用于形成针织制品的传统针织结构可以具有均匀的构造或针织图案。照此,所得针织制品可能缺乏例如分区缓冲、分区隔热性、分区贴合性、分区触觉反馈和/或分区渗透性/透气性特征。此外,如果针织制品在针织制品的特定位置(诸如袜子的足跟区域)包括分区特征,则针织结构在该位置是大致均匀的,使得该特征在该位置是大致均匀的(例如,均匀的缓冲)。Conventional knit structures used to form knitted articles can have a uniform configuration or knit pattern. As such, the resulting knitted article may lack features such as zoned cushioning, zoned insulation, zoned fit, zoned tactile feedback, and/or zoned permeability/breathability. Additionally, if a knitted article includes a zoned feature at a particular location of the knitted article (such as the heel area of a sock), the knit structure is substantially uniform at that location such that the feature is substantially uniform at that location (e.g., uniform cushioning ).

Any particular order among or between the various steps disclosed.
用于形成针织制品的传统针织结构可以具有均匀的构造或针织图案。照此,所得针织制品可能缺乏例如分区缓冲、分区隔热性、分区贴合性、分区触觉反馈和/或分区渗透性/透气性特征。此外,如果针织制品在针织制品的特定位置(诸如袜子的足跟区域)包括分区特征,则针织结构在该位置是大致均匀的,使得该特征在该位置是大致均匀的(例如,均匀的缓冲)。Conventional knit structures used to form knitted articles can have a uniform configuration or knit pattern. As such, the resulting knitted article may lack features such as zoned cushioning, zoned insulation, zoned fit, zoned tactile feedback, and/or zoned permeability/breathability. Additionally, if a knitted article includes a zoned feature at a particular location of the knitted article (such as the heel area of a sock), the knit structure is substantially uniform at that location such that the feature is substantially uniform at that location (e.g., uniform cushioning ).
本文各方面涉及一种用于形成针织制品的针织结构,其中可以调节或修改该针织结构以提供分区缓冲、分区隔热性、分区贴合性、分区渗透性/透气性特征和/或分区触觉反馈特征。在高水平上,该针织结构具有第一数量的针织线圈横列和第二数量的针织线圈横列的重复图案,第一数量的针织线圈横列具有用第一基本针织线迹针织的第一纱线,其中在第二数量的针织线圈横列的每个针织线圈横列内,第一纱线以具有第一数量的针织线迹和第二数量的浮线线迹的重复图案针织,第一数量的针织线迹用第二基本针织线迹针织,第二数量的浮线线迹形成浮线区域。在示例方面,第一基本针织线迹包括毛圈线圈,并且第二基本针织线迹不包括毛圈线圈(即,针织时没有毛圈线圈)。Aspects herein relate to a knit structure for forming a knitted article, wherein the knit structure can be adjusted or modified to provide zoned cushioning, zoned insulation, zoned fit, zoned permeability/breathability characteristics, and/or zoned haptics Feedback features. At a high level, the knit structure has a repeating pattern of a first number of knitting courses and a second number of knitting courses, the first number of knitting courses having a first yarn knitted with a first basic knitting stitch, wherein in each knitting course of the second number of knitting courses, the first yarn is knitted in a repeating pattern having a first number of knitting stitches and a second number of float stitches, the first number of knitting threads stitches are knitted with a second basic knitting stitch, a second number of float stitches forming the float region. In an example aspect, the first basic knit stitch includes terry loops, and the second basic knit stitch does not include terry loops (ie, is knitted without terry loops).
可以调节与针织结构相关联的不同参数以提供更多或更少的缓冲、更多或更少的隔热性、更多或更少的透气性/渗透性、更多或更少的贴合性、更多或更少的触觉反馈等。例如,通过增加包括具有毛圈线圈的第一基本针织线迹的第一数量的针织线圈横列,可以在针织制品中实现更大的缓冲和/或隔热性,而通过减少包括第一基本针织线迹的第一数量的针织线圈横列,可以实现更小的缓冲和/或隔热性。Different parameters associated with knit construction can be adjusted to provide more or less cushioning, more or less insulation, more or less breathability/permeability, more or less fit sex, more or less haptic feedback, etc. For example, by increasing the first number of knitting courses comprising the first basic knitting stitches with loop loops, greater cushioning and/or thermal insulation can be achieved in the knitted article, while by reducing the number of knitting courses comprising the first basic knitting stitches. The knitting courses of the first number of stitches may achieve less cushioning and/or thermal insulation.
由于第一纱线在浮线区域中不与另一针织线迹相互缠结,因此在浮线区域中纱线密度较小。因此,通过增加第二数量的针织线圈横列以增加浮线区域的数量和/或浮线区域在线圈纵行方向上的尺寸,可以实现更大的渗透性/透气性。通过增加给定数量的针织线圈横列内的浮线线迹的长度以增加给定数量的针织线圈横列内的浮线区域在线圈横列方向上的尺寸,也可以实现更大的渗透性/透气性。相反,通过减少第二数量的针织线圈横列和/或通过减少给定数量的针织线圈横列内的浮线线迹的长度,可以实现更小的渗透性/透气性。Since the first yarn is not intertwined with another knitting stitch in the float region, the yarn density is lower in the float region. Thus, by increasing the second number of knitting courses to increase the number of float areas and/or the size of the float areas in the wale direction, greater permeability/breathability can be achieved. Greater permeability/breathability can also be achieved by increasing the length of the float stitches within a given number of knitting courses to increase the dimension of the float area within a given number of knitting courses in the course direction . Conversely, less permeability/breathability can be achieved by reducing the second number of knitting courses and/or by reducing the length of the float stitches within a given number of knitting courses.
例如,通过使用弹性纱线作为第一纱线,可以实现更大的触觉反馈。在一个示例方面,在第二数量的针织线圈横列中,并且特别是在浮线区域中使用弹性纱线时,由于弹性纱线的回复性能将浮线区域的边缘朝向彼此拉或拉紧,会导致针织制品的“微凹”。当针织制品被穿着时,微凸区域可以邻近期望触觉反馈的皮肤表面定位,诸如穿着者的足部的脚趾球和/或足跟区域,因为这些区域通常经历与地面的大量接触。例如,通过增加针织结构中第二数量的针织线圈横列和/或通过增加浮线线迹的长度,可以实现更大的触觉反馈。For example, by using an elastic yarn as the first yarn, greater tactile feedback can be achieved. In one example aspect, when using elastic yarn in the second number of knitting courses, and particularly in the float area, the edges of the float area will be Causes "dimples" in knitted goods. When the knitted article is worn, the microconvex area may be positioned adjacent to the skin surface where tactile feedback is desired, such as the ball of the wearer's foot and/or the heel area, since these areas typically experience a great deal of contact with the ground. For example, greater tactile feedback may be achieved by increasing the second number of knitting courses in the knit structure and/or by increasing the length of the float stitches.
由于第一纱线在浮线区域中不与另一针织线迹相互缠结,因此在浮线区域中纱线长度较小。这又减少了浮线区域中的拉伸量并产生了更紧密的贴合性。因此,通过增加针织制品中浮线区域的数量或尺寸,可以在针织制品的区域中实现更紧密的贴合性(即,更大的抗拉伸性)。这通过增加第二数量的针织线圈横列和/或通过增加给定数量的线圈横列内的浮线线迹的长度来实现。通过减少针织制品中浮线区域的数量,可以在针织制品的区域中实现更松弛的贴合性。这可以通过减少第二数量的针织线圈横列和/或通过减少给定数量的线圈横列内的浮线线迹的长度来实现。Since the first thread is not intertwined with another knitting stitch in the float region, the yarn length is smaller in the float region. This in turn reduces the amount of stretch in the float area and creates a tighter fit. Thus, by increasing the number or size of float regions in a knitted article, a tighter fit (ie, greater resistance to stretch) can be achieved in regions of the knitted article. This is achieved by increasing the second number of knitting courses and/or by increasing the length of the float stitches within a given number of courses. By reducing the number of float regions in the knitted article, a looser fit can be achieved in areas of the knitted article. This can be achieved by reducing the second number of knitting courses and/or by reducing the length of the float stitches within a given number of courses.
针织结构的参数也可以沿特定的一组线圈横列调节。例如,关于第二数量的针织线圈横列,浮线线迹的长度可以沿特定的一组线圈横列调节到不同的长度,以沿线圈横列的长度方向调节渗透性/透气性特征、贴合性特征和/或触觉反馈特征。The parameters of the knit structure can also be adjusted along a particular set of courses. For example, with respect to a second number of knitting courses, the length of the float stitches can be adjusted to different lengths along a particular set of courses to adjust the permeability/breathability characteristics, fit characteristics along the length of the courses and/or haptic feedback features.

Aspects herein contemplate that knitted structures may be formed by weft knitting processes, including, for example, circular knitting and weaving processes. Knitted structures may be used to form one or more knitted articles. As used herein, the term "knitted article" refers to any type of article that may be worn by a wearer, including, for example, upper garments, lower garments, extremity sleeves (e.g., calf sleeves, arm sleeves), socks, shoe uppers, gloves , hats, etc. As used herein, positional terms used to describe a knitted article are relative to the knitted article being worn as intended by an upright wearer. The term "inwardly facing surface" means the surface of a knitted article that is configured to face the wearer's skin surface. In an example aspect, the inwardly facing surface can be the innermost facing surface of the knitted article. The term "outward-facing surface" means the surface of the woven article facing away from the inward-facing surface and facing the external environment. In an example aspect, the outwardly facing surface can be the outermost facing surface of the knitted article. In an example aspect, the inward-facing surface can comprise a technical back of the knitted article, and the outward-facing surface can comprise a technical front of the knitted article.
如本文所用,术语“针织线圈横列”是指在相同针织循环期间由邻近针产生的主要水平的一行针织线圈(在针织时的直立纺织品中)。针织线圈横列可以包括一种或多种线迹类型,诸如针织线迹、保持线迹、浮线线迹、集圈线迹、转移线迹等,这些术语在针织领域中是已知的。如本文所用,术语“线圈纵行”是相互穿套或相互缠结的主要竖直的一列针织线圈,通常由相同针在连续(但不一定是全部)线圈横列或针织循环中产生。术语“水平”和“竖直”是相对于针织时的直立纺织品而言的,其中针织线圈的头部面向纺织品的顶部,并且线圈横列针织物首先朝向纺织品的底部定向。术语“线圈横列方向”是指平行于针织线圈横列方向的方向。术语“线圈纵行方向”是指正交于针织线圈横列方向和/或平行于线圈纵行方向的方向。As used herein, the term "knitting course" refers to a predominantly horizontal row of knitting loops (in a standing textile when knitting) produced by adjacent needles during the same knitting cycle. A knit course may include one or more stitch types, such as knit stitches, hold stitches, float stitches, tuck stitches, transfer stitches, etc., as these terms are known in the knitting art. As used herein, the term "wale" is a predominantly vertical series of knitting loops that interpenetrate or intertwine, usually produced by the same needles in successive (but not necessarily all) courses or knitting cycles. The terms "horizontal" and "vertical" are relative to a standing textile when knitted, where the heads of the knitted loops face the top of the textile and the course knits are first oriented toward the bottom of the textile. The term "course direction" means a direction parallel to the knitting course direction. The term "wale direction" refers to a direction orthogonal to the knitting course direction and/or parallel to the wale direction.
如本文所用,术语“第一基本针织线迹”是指这样的基本线迹类型,其中通过先前的线迹将纱线线圈从针织制品的工艺背面拉到工艺正面。因此,线迹的腿部出现在针织制品的工艺面上,并且线迹的顶部和底部出现在针织制品的工艺背面上。如本文所用,第一基本针织线迹包括毛圈线圈。术语“毛圈线圈”是指由针织纱线形成的线圈,该针织纱线远离针织制品的工艺面和/或工艺背面延伸,并且该术语被赋予针织领域中常用的含义。在示例方面,毛圈线圈远离针织制品的工艺背面延伸,使得它们面向穿着者的皮肤表面。如本文所用,术语“第二基本针织线迹”是指这样的基本线迹类型,其中通过先前的线迹将纱线线圈从针织制品的工艺背面拉到工艺正面,但是第二基本针织线迹不包括毛圈线圈(即,纱线针织时没有毛圈线圈)。如本文所用,术语“浮线线迹”在针处没有形成新线迹时出现。因此,浮线可以延伸跨过一个或多个邻近线圈纵行。当描述针织制品的第一位置可以具有比第二位置“更多数量的浮线线迹”时,这可以意味着浮线线迹在第一位置比在第二位置延伸更多数量的线圈纵行。如本文所用,术语“添纱”意指这样的针织构造,其中一种或多种主体纱线(即,第一纱线)和一种或多种添纱纱线(即,第二纱线)使用例如主体喂纱器和一个或多个添纱喂纱器在相同针织线迹中针织。As used herein, the term "first basic knitting stitch" refers to the type of basic stitch in which loops of yarn are drawn from the technical back to the technical front of a knitted article by a previous stitch. Thus, the legs of the stitch appear on the technical side of the knitted article, and the top and bottom of the stitch appear on the technical back of the knitted article. As used herein, the first basic knitting stitch includes a terry loop. The term "terry loop" refers to loops formed by knitting yarns that extend away from the technical side and/or technical back of a knitted article, and the term is given the usual meaning in the field of knitting. In an example aspect, the terry loops extend away from the technical back of the knitted article such that they face the wearer's skin surface. As used herein, the term "second basic knitting stitch" refers to the type of basic stitch in which loops of yarn are pulled from the technical back to the technical front of a knitted article by a previous stitch, but the second basic knitting stitch Terry loops are not included (ie, yarn is knitted without terry loops). As used herein, the term "float stitch" occurs when no new stitches are formed at the needle. Accordingly, the float may extend across one or more adjacent wales. When it is described that the first position of the knitted article may have "a greater number of float stitches" than the second position, this may mean that the float stitches extend a greater number of stitches in the first position than in the second position. OK. As used herein, the term "plating" means a knit construction in which one or more body yarns (i.e., first yarns) and one or more plating yarns (i.e., second yarns) ) is knitted in the same knitting stitch using, for example, a body feeder and one or more plating feeders.
用于形成针织制品的纱线可以包括由天然纤维/长丝(例如,棉、羊毛、丝等)形成的纱线、包括合成纤维/长丝(例如,涤纶、尼龙等)的纱线,或包含天然纤维/长丝和合成纤维/长丝两者的纱线。用于形成针织制品的纱线还可以包括弹性纱线,其中术语“弹性”是指纱线拉伸至其原始长度的约100%至约200%并在移除拉伸力后回复至其原始长度的大约(例如,5%至10%内)的能力。在示例方面,弹性纱线可以覆盖有其他纱线,诸如涤纶或尼龙纱线。如本文所用,术语“整体针织”可以意指这样的针织制品,其中来自一个或多个针织线圈横列的纱线与另一区域的一个或多个针织线圈横列相互缠结。针织制品可以在单个针织事件期间整体针织,但本文也设想了剪裁缝纫构造。Yarns used to form knitted articles may include yarns formed from natural fibers/filaments (e.g., cotton, wool, silk, etc.), yarns comprising synthetic fibers/filaments (e.g., polyester, nylon, etc.), or Yarns comprising both natural fibers/filaments and synthetic fibers/filaments. Yarns used to form knitted articles may also include elastic yarns, where the term "elastic" means that the yarn stretches to about 100% to about 200% of its original length and returns to its original length after the stretching force is removed. Ability to be approximately (eg, within 5% to 10%) of the length. In an exemplary aspect, the elastic yarns may be covered with other yarns, such as polyester or nylon yarns. As used herein, the term "integrally knitted" may mean a knitted article in which yarns from one or more knit courses are intertwined with one or more knit courses of another region. The knitted article may be knitted as a whole during a single knitting event, but cut-and-sewn constructions are also contemplated herein.
术语渗透性是通过针织结构的给定区域的气流的量度,并且可以使用ASTM D737测试方法测量。如本文所用,术语透气性是针织结构允许湿气透过材料的能力,并且可以例如使用ASTM E96测试方法测量。The term permeability is a measure of airflow through a given area of a knitted structure and can be measured using the ASTM D737 test method. As used herein, the term air permeability is the ability of a knitted structure to allow moisture vapor to pass through the material, and can be measured, for example, using the ASTM E96 test method.
除非另外指示,否则本文提供的所有测量均在针织制品处于标准环境温度和压力(298.15K和100kPa)并且针织制品处于静止状态(例如,未拉伸状态)时进行。Unless otherwise indicated, all measurements provided herein were made when the knitted article was at standard ambient temperature and pressure (298.15K and 100 kPa) and when the knitted article was at rest (eg, unstretched).
图1图示了可以用于形成针织制品的示例针织结构100,其中针织结构100使用至少第一纱线112(以交叉影线示出)和可选的第二纱线114(以影线示出)针织,其中第一纱线112和第二纱线114(当使用时)处于添纱关系。针织结构100可以包括附加添纱纱线。针织结构100描绘了重复图案的一部分,其包括与第二数量的针织线圈横列118整体针织的第一数量的针织线圈横列110。因此,图案包括第一数量的针织线圈横列110、第二数量的针织线圈横列118、第一数量的针织线圈横列110、第二数量的针织线圈横列118等。因此,可以有多组第一数量的针织线圈横列110和多组第二数量的针织线圈横列118。FIG. 1 illustrates an example knit structure 100 that may be used to form a knitted article, wherein the knit structure 100 utilizes at least a first yarn 112 (shown in cross-hatching) and an optional second yarn 114 (shown in hatching). out) knitting wherein the first yarn 112 and the second yarn 114 (when used) are in a plating relationship. Knit structure 100 may include additional plating yarns. Knit structure 100 depicts a portion of a repeating pattern that includes a first number of knit courses 110 integrally knitted with a second number of knit courses 118 . Thus, the pattern includes a first number of knitting courses 110, a second number of knitting courses 118, a first number of knitting courses 110, a second number of knitting courses 118, and so on. Thus, there may be multiple sets of the first number of knitting courses 110 and multiple sets of the second number of knitting courses 118 .
在示例方面,第一数量的针织线圈横列110用第一基本针织线迹针织。如下面讨论的图2所示,针织第一纱线112和可选的第二纱线114以在针织结构100的工艺背面上形成毛圈线圈。由于空气滞留在纱线线圈中,毛圈线圈提供缓冲以及隔热性。由于毛圈线圈中额外的纱线长度,它们可以提供增加的拉伸性能。在示例方面,第一纱线112可以包括不同的旦尼尔,这取决于期望功能益处。例如,与具有较小旦尼尔的纱线相比,可以使用较高旦尼尔的纱线来实现增加的缓冲和/或隔热性。第一纱线112可以是弹性的或非弹性的。在示例方面,第二纱线114可以包括弹性纱线或非弹性纱线。弹性第二纱线114可以用于针织制品,诸如袜子或四肢袖子,以提供拉伸和回复,并有助于将针织制品保持在穿着者身上的固定位置。In an example aspect, a first number of knit courses 110 are knitted with a first basic knit stitch. As shown in FIG. 2 discussed below, first yarn 112 and optional second yarn 114 are knitted to form loop loops on the technical back of knitted structure 100 . Terry loops provide cushioning as well as insulation due to air trapped in the yarn loops. They can provide increased stretch properties due to the extra yarn length in the terry loops. In an example aspect, first yarn 112 can include different deniers depending on the desired functional benefit. For example, yarns with a higher denier can be used to achieve increased cushioning and/or thermal insulation compared to yarns with a smaller denier. The first yarn 112 may be elastic or non-elastic. In an example aspect, the second yarn 114 may include an elastic yarn or a non-elastic yarn. The elastic second yarn 114 may be used on knitted articles, such as socks or limb sleeves, to provide stretch and recovery, and to help keep the knitted article in place on the wearer.
描绘了断开线116以图示第一数量的针织线圈横列110可以包括未示出的附加针织线圈横列。在示例方面,第一数量的针织线圈横列110可以包括从约两个针织线圈横列至约十个针织线圈横列。当期望由于毛圈线圈的数量增加而增加缓冲、隔热性和/或拉伸时,可以使用更多数量的针织线圈横列110。相反,当期望减少缓冲、隔热性和/或拉伸时,可以使用更少数量的针织线圈横列110。Break line 116 is depicted to illustrate that first number of knit courses 110 may include additional knit courses not shown. In an example aspect, the first number of knit courses 110 may include from about two knit courses to about ten knit courses. A greater number of knit courses 110 may be used when it is desired to increase cushioning, insulation, and/or stretch due to the increased number of terry loops. Conversely, a smaller number of knit courses 110 may be used when reduced cushioning, insulation, and/or stretch are desired.
针织结构100还包括第二数量的针织线圈横列118。第二数量的针织线圈横列118包括第一数量的针织线迹(大致由附图标记120表示)和第二数量的浮线线迹(大致由附图标记124表示)的重复图案,其中第一数量的针织线迹用没有毛圈线圈的第二基本针织线迹针织,第二数量的浮线线迹用于形成浮线区域128。在示例方面,当使用第二纱线114时,第二纱线114可以在第二数量的针织线圈横列118中(包括在浮线区域128中)用第二基本针织线迹连续针织,如附图标记130所指示。在第二数量的针织线圈横列118中连续针织第二纱线114可以有助于为针织制品提供结构和稳定性。在另外的示例方面,当使用第二纱线114时,第一纱线112可以在浮线区域128中浮在针织结构100的工艺背面上,如图所示。在第二数量的针织线圈横列118内,第一数量的针织线迹120在线圈纵行方向上对齐,并且第二数量的浮线线迹124在线圈纵行方向上对齐。尽管图1描绘了第一数量的针织线迹120是与第二数量的浮线线迹124相同的数量,但本文设想第一数量的针织线迹120可以是与第二数量的浮线线迹124不同的数量。Knit structure 100 also includes a second number of knit courses 118 . The second number of knitting courses 118 includes a repeating pattern of a first number of knitting stitches (generally indicated by reference numeral 120) and a second number of float stitches (generally indicated by reference numeral 124), wherein the first A number of knitting stitches are knitted with the second basic knitting stitch without terry loops, and the second number of float stitches are used to form the float region 128 . In an exemplary aspect, when using the second yarn 114, the second yarn 114 can be continuously knitted with the second basic knitting stitch in a second number of knitting courses 118 (including in the float region 128), as shown in the attached Indicated by reference numeral 130. Continuously knitting the second yarn 114 in the second number of knit courses 118 may help provide structure and stability to the knitted article. In a further example aspect, when second yarn 114 is used, first yarn 112 may float on the technical backside of knitted structure 100 in float region 128, as shown. Within the second number of knitting courses 118, a first number of knitting stitches 120 are aligned in the wale direction and a second number of float stitches 124 are aligned in the wale direction. Although FIG. 1 depicts the first number of knitting stitches 120 being the same number as the second number of float stitches 124, it is contemplated herein that the first number of knitting stitches 120 may be the same number as the second number of float stitches. 124 different quantities.
如图所描绘,与用第一基本针织线迹和第二基本针织线迹针织的区域相比,浮线区域128由于浮线线迹124而具有更小的纱线密度。换句话说,由于第一纱线112在浮线区域128中不与其他针织线迹相互缠结,因此在浮线区域128中存在较少的纱线。这又增加了针织结构100在浮线区域128中的渗透性和/或透气性。此外,由于第一纱线112在浮线区域128中不与其他针织线迹相互缠结,因此与针织结构100的非浮线区域相比,第一纱线112的长度在浮线区域128中减小。由于在浮线区域128中纱线长度较小,因此抗拉伸性(包括抗机械拉伸性)较大,这可以产生更紧密的贴合性。As depicted, the float region 128 has a lower yarn density due to the float stitch 124 than the region knitted with the first base knit stitch and the second base knit stitch. In other words, less yarn is present in the float region 128 because the first yarn 112 is not intertwined with other stitches of knitting in the float region 128 . This in turn increases the permeability and/or breathability of knitted structure 100 in float region 128 . Furthermore, since the first yarn 112 does not intertangle with other stitches in the float region 128, the length of the first yarn 112 is in the float region 128 as compared to the non-float region of the knitted structure 100. decrease. Since the yarn length is less in the float region 128, the resistance to stretch (including resistance to mechanical stretch) is greater, which can result in a tighter fit.
当第一纱线112是弹性纱线时,第一纱线112的回复性能可以导致针织结构100的微凸或三维(3-D)变形,因为浮线区域128的边缘被拉向彼此,导致浮线区域128相对于针织结构100的表面平面在z方向上延伸。在示例方面,当第一纱线112浮在针织结构100的工艺背面上时,浮线区域128朝向穿着者的皮肤表面延伸。针织结构100的微凸或3-D变形可以为针织制品提供触觉反馈特征。例如,针织制品的微凸区域可以邻近穿着者的期望触觉反馈的区域(诸如穿着者的足部、背部等)定位。When first yarn 112 is an elastic yarn, the recovery properties of first yarn 112 can cause microconvex or three-dimensional (3-D) deformation of knitted structure 100 as the edges of float regions 128 are drawn toward each other, resulting in The float region 128 extends in the z-direction with respect to the surface plane of the knitted structure 100 . In an exemplary aspect, float region 128 extends toward the wearer's skin surface when first yarn 112 floats on the technical back of knitted structure 100 . Micro-convex or 3-D deformations of knitted structure 100 can provide tactile feedback features to knitted articles. For example, a slightly raised area of a knitted article may be positioned adjacent to an area of the wearer where tactile feedback is desired (such as the wearer's foot, back, etc.).
描绘了断开线132以图示第二数量的针织线圈横列118可以包括未示出的附加针织线圈横列。在示例方面,根据针织机能力,第二数量的针织线圈横列118可以包括从约两个针织线圈横列至约十四个针织线圈横列。在给定一组针织线圈横列118内的更多数量的针织线圈横列118会增加浮线区域128在线圈纵行方向上的尺寸,这可以增加针织结构100的渗透性和/或透气性特征。相反,在给定一组针织线圈横列118内的更少数量的针织线圈横列118会减少浮线区域128在线圈纵行方向上的尺寸,这可以减少针织结构100的渗透性和/或透气性特征。A break line 132 is depicted to illustrate that the second number of knit courses 118 may include additional knit courses not shown. In an exemplary aspect, the second number of knitting courses 118 may include from about two knitting courses to about fourteen knitting courses, depending on knitting machine capabilities. A greater number of knit courses 118 within a given set of knit courses 118 increases the dimension of float region 128 in the wale direction, which may increase the permeability and/or breathability characteristics of knitted structure 100 . Conversely, a smaller number of knit courses 118 within a given set of knit courses 118 reduces the size of float region 128 in the wale direction, which can reduce the permeability and/or breathability characteristics of knitted structure 100. .
描绘了断开线134以图示第一数量的针织线迹120可以包括未示出的附加针织线迹。在示例方面,第一数量的针织线迹120可以包括从两个针织线迹至十个针织线迹(或更多)、从两个针织线迹至八个针织线迹、从两个针织线迹至六个针织线迹,或从两个针织线迹至四个针织线迹。增加第一数量的针织线迹120会减少所得针织制品的第二数量的针织线圈横列118内的浮线区域128的数量。这又会减少所得针织制品的渗透性和/或透气性。附加地,由于纱线线圈的数量增加,其可以在所得针织制品中产生更大的拉伸度。Break line 134 is depicted to illustrate that first number of stitches of knitting 120 may include additional stitches of knitting not shown. In example aspects, the first number of knit stitches 120 may include from two knit stitches to ten knit stitches (or more), from two knit stitches to eight knit stitches, from two knit threads stitches to six stitches of knitting, or from two stitches of knitting to four stitches of knitting. Increasing the first number of knit stitches 120 reduces the number of float regions 128 within the second number of knit courses 118 of the resulting knitted article. This in turn reduces the permeability and/or breathability of the resulting knitted article. Additionally, due to the increased number of yarn loops, it can create a greater degree of stretch in the resulting knitted article.
本文还设想,第一数量的针织线迹120的第一组136可以包括与第一数量的针织线迹120的第二组138相同或不同数量的针织线迹。换句话说,根据期望属性,第一数量的针织线迹120可以沿第二数量的针织线圈横列118变化或保持相同。It is also contemplated herein that the first group 136 of the first number of knit stitches 120 may include the same or a different number of knit stitches than the second group 138 of the first number of knit stitches 120 . In other words, the first number of knitting stitches 120 may vary or remain the same along the second number of knitting courses 118, depending on desired attributes.
描绘了断开线140以图示第二数量的浮线线迹124可以延伸更多数量的线圈纵行。在示例方面,第二数量的浮线线迹124可以延伸两个线圈纵行至十个线圈纵行、两个线圈纵行至八个线圈纵行、两个线圈纵行至六个线圈纵行,或两个线圈纵行至五个线圈纵行。将第二数量的浮线线迹124延伸更多数量的线圈纵行会增加浮线区域128在线圈横列方向上的尺寸或表面积。这又会增加针织结构100的渗透性和/或透气性。附加地,它可以在针织结构100中产生更大的抗拉伸性。在示例方面,可能期望不将第二数量的浮线线迹延伸超过例如10个线圈纵行,以减少钩住的发生率。Break lines 140 are depicted to illustrate that the second number of float stitches 124 may extend a greater number of wales. In an exemplary aspect, the second number of float stitches 124 may extend two wales to ten wales, two wales to eight wales, two wales to six wales , or two wales to five wales. Extending the second number of float stitches 124 for a greater number of wales increases the size or surface area of the float region 128 in the course direction. This in turn increases the permeability and/or breathability of knitted structure 100 . Additionally, it can create greater resistance to stretch in the knitted structure 100 . In an exemplary aspect, it may be desirable not to extend the second number of float stitches beyond, for example, 10 wales to reduce the incidence of snagging.
本文附加地设想,第二数量的浮线线迹124的第一组142可以包括与第二数量的浮线线迹124的第二组144相同或不同数量的浮线线迹。换句话说,根据期望属性,第二数量的浮线线迹124可以沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118变化或保持相同。It is additionally contemplated herein that the first group 142 of the second number of float stitches 124 may include the same or a different number of float stitches than the second group 144 of the second number of float stitches 124 . In other words, the second number of float stitches 124 may vary or remain the same along a given set of knitting courses 118 of the second number, depending on desired attributes.
改变第一数量的针织线迹120和第二数量的浮线线迹124允许在沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118的线圈横列方向的不同位置处调节特征。例如,如果在沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118的特定位置期望增加透气性/渗透性,则在该位置第二数量的浮线线迹124可以相对于第一数量的针织线迹120增加,使得第二数量的浮线线迹124延伸更多数量的线圈纵行。如果在该位置期望减少透气性/渗透性,则反之亦然。如果在沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118的特定位置期望更大的抗拉伸性,则在该位置第二数量的浮线线迹124可以相对于第一数量的针织线迹120增加。如果在该位置期望减少抗拉伸性,则反之亦然。通过增加或减少浮线线迹124在期望位置的长度和/或通过使第一纱线112为弹性纱线,可以在沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118的各个位置处调节触觉反馈。Varying the first number of knit stitches 120 and the second number of float stitches 124 allows for adjustment of features at different positions along the course direction for a given set of knit courses 118 of the second number. For example, if increased breathability/permeability is desired at a particular location along a given set of second number of knit courses 118, the second number of float stitches 124 at that location may be relative to the first number of knit threads. The stitches 120 are increased such that the second number of float stitches 124 extends for a greater number of wales. The reverse is also true if reduced air/permeability is desired at this location. If greater resistance to stretching is desired at a particular location along a given set of knitting courses 118 of a second number, the second number of float stitches 124 may be relative to the first number of knitting stitches at that location. 120 increase. The reverse is also true if reduced stretch resistance is desired at this location. By increasing or decreasing the length of the float stitch 124 at a desired location and/or by making the first yarn 112 an elastic yarn, the feel can be adjusted at various locations along a given set of knitting courses 118 of the second number. feedback.
图2图示了示例针织结构100的截面图。如图所示,在第一数量的针织线圈横列110中,第一纱线112和可选的第二纱线114以第一基本针织线迹针织,以在针织结构100的工艺背面上形成毛圈线圈210。毛圈线圈210中纱线的额外体积有助于在使用时提供缓冲,并且可以提供增加的拉伸性能。附加地,毛圈线圈210可以有助于捕获空气并提供隔热性。在第二数量的针织线圈横列118中,第一纱线112和可选的第二纱线114以不形成毛圈线圈的第二基本针织线迹针织。如图2进一步所示,第一数量的针织线圈横列110与第二数量的针织线圈横列118整体针织。FIG. 2 illustrates a cross-sectional view of an example knit structure 100 . As shown, in a first number of knitting courses 110, a first yarn 112 and an optional second yarn 114 are knitted with a first basic knitting stitch to form a pile on the technical back side of the knitted structure 100. Turn the coil 210. The extra bulk of the yarn in the loop terry loop 210 helps provide cushioning in use and may provide increased stretch performance. Additionally, the terry coil 210 can help trap air and provide insulation. In the second number of knitting courses 118, the first yarn 112 and the optional second yarn 114 are knitted in a second basic knitting stitch that does not form loop loops. As further shown in FIG. 2 , the first number of courses of knitting 110 are integrally knitted with the second number of courses of knitting 118 .
图3描绘了利用示例针织结构100的袜子300形式的示例针织制品。针织结构100的各个部分被示意性地描绘在袜子300上的各个位置处,使得浮线区域128由方框指示,并且针织线圈横列由线表示。袜子300包括定位在袜子300的腿部部分处的位置310、定位在袜子300的足跟部分处的位置312,以及定位在袜子300的前足部分处的位置314。FIG. 3 depicts an example knitted article utilizing example knit construction 100 in the form of a sock 300 . Various portions of knit structure 100 are schematically depicted at various locations on sock 300, such that float regions 128 are indicated by boxes and knit courses are represented by lines. Sock 300 includes location 310 positioned at a leg portion of sock 300 , location 312 positioned at a heel portion of sock 300 , and location 314 positioned at a forefoot portion of sock 300 .
在位置310,第二数量的针织线圈横列118大于第一数量的针织线圈横列110。另外,位置310的第二数量的浮线线迹124大于例如位置312和314。这导致浮线区域128在线圈横列方向和线圈纵行方向两者上的尺寸都比位置312和314的浮线区域大。照此,与位置312和314相比,位置310处的透气性/渗透性可以更大。同样,与位置312和314相比,由于在位置310处的浮线区域128更大,所以可以存在更大的抗拉伸性。更大的抗拉伸性可以有助于将袜子300的腿部部分保持在穿着者的腿部上的相对固定的位置,并且浮线区域128的增加的尺寸可以允许增加的空气和/或湿气交换并为穿着者提供凉爽效果。In position 310 , the second number of knit courses 118 is greater than the first number of knit courses 110 . Additionally, the second number of float stitches 124 at location 310 is greater than, for example, locations 312 and 314 . This results in the float area 128 being larger in size in both the course and wale directions than the float area at locations 312 and 314 . As such, the air permeability/permeability at location 310 may be greater compared to locations 312 and 314 . Also, due to the larger float area 128 at location 310 as compared to locations 312 and 314, greater stretch resistance may exist. Greater stretch resistance can help keep the leg portion of the sock 300 in a relatively fixed position on the wearer's leg, and the increased size of the float region 128 can allow for increased air and/or wetness. Air exchange and provide a cooling effect to the wearer.
在位置312,第一数量的针织线圈横列110大于第二数量的针织线圈横列118。照此,与例如位置310相比,位置312处的缓冲可以增加。由于穿着者的足跟是与地面的高接触区域,因此增加的缓冲可能是期望属性。在位置312处使用浮线区域128可以增加抗拉伸性并提供袜子300的足跟部分的更牢固的贴合性。附加地,当在浮线区域128中使用弹性纱线时,针织结构的微凸可以在位置312提供触觉反馈特征。In position 312 , the first number of courses of knitting 110 is greater than the second number of courses of knitting 118 . As such, buffering at location 312 may be increased compared to location 310, for example. Since the wearer's heel is a high contact area with the ground, increased cushioning may be a desired attribute. Use of float region 128 at location 312 may increase stretch resistance and provide a more secure fit of the heel portion of sock 300 . Additionally, when elastic yarns are used in the float region 128, the micro-protrusions of the knit structure may provide a tactile feedback feature at locations 312.
在定位在袜子300的前足部分处的位置314处,增加的缓冲也可能是期望特征,因为这通常是袜子300的高接触区域。照此,在位置314处,第一数量的针织线圈横列110大于第二数量的针织线圈横列118。为了在该高接触区域处提供增强的触觉反馈,与位置312相比,可以增加第二数量的针织线圈横列118和/或第二数量的浮线线迹124,并因此增加浮线区域128在线圈横列和线圈纵行方向两者上的尺寸。位置310、312和314的定位是说明性的,并且本文设想本文所述的针织结构100的特征可以被修改以在诸如袜子300的针织制品上的期望位置处实现一种或多种期望功能效果。Increased cushioning may also be a desirable feature at location 314 , located at the forefoot portion of sock 300 , since this is typically a high-contact area of sock 300 . As such, at position 314 the first number of courses of knitting 110 is greater than the second number of courses of knitting 118 . In order to provide enhanced tactile feedback at this high contact area, a second number of knit courses 118 and/or a second number of float stitches 124 can be increased compared to location 312, and thus the float area 128 can be increased in line. Dimensions in both the course and wale directions. The positioning of locations 310, 312, and 314 is illustrative, and it is contemplated herein that the features of knitted structure 100 described herein may be modified to achieve one or more desired functional effects at desired locations on a knitted article, such as sock 300 .
图4图示了袜子400形式的示例针织制品的仰视图,其中针织结构100的位置410朝向袜子400的后部定位在足跟区域中。提供图4以图示浮线区域128的尺寸如何沿给定一组第二数量的针织线圈横列118变化。例如,沿第二数量的针织线圈横列118a,浮线区域128b比浮线区域128a延伸更多数量的线圈纵行。这样描述的构造在诸如图4所示的位置410的给定位置内改变透气性/渗透性特征、贴合性特征和触觉反馈特征。位置410的定位是说明性的,并且本文设想本文所述的针织结构100的特征可以被修改以在诸如袜子400的针织制品上的期望位置处实现期望功能效果。FIG. 4 illustrates a bottom view of an example knitted article in the form of a sock 400 with a location 410 of the knitted structure 100 positioned in the heel region towards the rear of the sock 400 . FIG. 4 is provided to illustrate how the size of the float region 128 varies along a given set of knitting courses 118 of the second number. For example, along the second number of knit courses 118a, the float region 128b extends a greater number of wales than the float region 128a. The configuration thus described varies the breathability/permeability characteristics, fit characteristics, and tactile feedback characteristics within a given location, such as location 410 shown in FIG. 4 . The positioning of location 410 is illustrative, and it is contemplated herein that the features of knitted structure 100 described herein may be modified to achieve a desired functional effect at a desired location on a knitted article, such as sock 400 .
图5是沿图4的切割线5-5截取的袜子400的横截面,并且被提供来图示针织结构100中针对第一纱线112使用弹性纱线如何引起袜子400的微凸或3-D变形。袜子400的表面平面由虚线510指示。浮线区域128被示出为在z方向上远离表面平面510延伸。浮线区域128大致定位在袜子400的工艺背面514上并且背离袜子400的工艺正面512。通过将浮线区域128定位在工艺背面514上,浮线区域128朝向穿着者的皮肤表面延伸以提供触觉反馈特征。在示例方面,袜子400在该位置的微凸或3-D变形可以为运动期间的平衡和肌肉活动提供重要的感觉或触觉反馈。5 is a cross-section of the sock 400 taken along cut line 5-5 of FIG. D deformation. The surface plane of sock 400 is indicated by dashed line 510 . Float line region 128 is shown extending away from surface plane 510 in the z-direction. The float region 128 is generally positioned on the technical back 514 of the sock 400 and away from the technical front 512 of the sock 400 . By positioning the float region 128 on the technical back 514, the float region 128 extends toward the wearer's skin surface to provide a tactile feedback feature. In terms of examples, the slightly convex or 3-D deformation of the sock 400 in this location can provide important sensory or tactile feedback for balance and muscle activity during exercise.
图6至图7分别图示了整体或部分地由针织结构100形成的示例上身针织制品600的正视图和后视图。关于图6,具有针织结构100的位置610被描绘为跨过上身针织制品600的上胸部部分,使得位置610被配置成邻近穿着者的上前胸部区域定位。关于图7,具有针织结构100的位置612被示出在上身针织制品600的袖子部分614中的每一个上,使得位置612被配置成邻近穿着者的手臂区域定位。将位置610与位置612进行比较,与位置612相比,在位置610,浮线区域128在线圈横列和线圈纵行方向两者上的尺寸更大。这可以反映出在穿着者的该高热产生区域中期望增加水平的透气性/渗透性。与位置610相比,在位置612,第一数量的针织线圈横列110更多,使得与位置610相比,位置612处的毛圈线圈的数量增加。这可以反映出在上身针织制品600的该区域中期望增加水平的隔热性、缓冲和/或拉伸。位置610和612的定位是说明性的,并且本文设想本文所述的针织结构100的特征可以被修改以在诸如上身针织制品600的针织制品上的期望位置处实现期望功能效果。6-7 illustrate front and rear views, respectively, of an example upper body knitted article 600 formed in whole or in part from knitted structure 100 . With respect to FIG. 6 , location 610 having knitted structure 100 is depicted across an upper chest portion of upper body knitted article 600 such that location 610 is configured to be positioned adjacent the wearer's upper front chest region. Referring to FIG. 7 , locations 612 having knitted structures 100 are shown on each of sleeve portions 614 of upper body knitted article 600 such that locations 612 are configured to be positioned adjacent to the wearer's arm region. Comparing location 610 to location 612, the size of the float region 128 in both the course and wale directions is greater in location 610 than in location 612. This may reflect a desire for increased levels of breathability/permeability in this high heat generating area of the wearer. The first number of knit courses 110 is greater at position 612 than at position 610 such that the number of loop loops at position 612 is increased as compared to position 610 . This may reflect a desire for increased levels of insulation, cushioning, and/or stretch in this region of the upper body knitted article 600 . The positioning of locations 610 and 612 is illustrative, and it is contemplated herein that the features of knitted structure 100 described herein may be modified to achieve a desired functional effect at a desired location on a knitted article, such as upper body knitted article 600 .
图8图示了整体或部分地由针织结构100形成的示例下身针织制品800的正视图。图8描绘了位置810,该位置810由针织结构100形成并定位在下身针织制品800的前上躯干部分处,使得位置810被配置成邻近穿着者的前下躯干区域定位。图8还描绘了位置812,该位置812由针织结构100形成并定位在腿部部分814的前上部,使得位置812被配置成邻近穿着者的前大腿区域定位。将位置810与位置812进行比较,与位置812相比,在位置810,浮线区域128在线圈横列和线圈纵行方向两者上的尺寸更大。这可以反映出在穿着者的该区域中期望增加水平的透气性/渗透性。与位置810相比,在位置812,第一数量的针织线圈横列110更多,使得与位置810相比,位置812处的毛圈线圈的数量增加。这可以反映出在下身针织制品800的该区域中期望增加水平的隔热性、缓冲和/或拉伸。位置810和812的定位是说明性的,并且本文设想本文所述的针织结构100的特征可以被修改以在诸如下身针织制品800的针织制品上的期望位置处实现期望功能效果。FIG. 8 illustrates a front view of an example lower body knitted article 800 formed in whole or in part from knitted structure 100 . 8 depicts location 810 formed by knitted structure 100 and positioned at a front upper torso portion of lower body knitted article 800 such that location 810 is configured to be positioned adjacent a wearer's front lower torso region. FIG. 8 also depicts location 812 formed by knitted structure 100 and positioned on an upper front portion of leg portion 814 such that location 812 is configured to be positioned adjacent a wearer's front thigh region. Comparing location 810 to location 812, the size of float region 128 in both the course and wale directions is greater in location 810 than in location 812. This may reflect a desire for increased levels of breathability/permeability in this area of the wearer. The first number of knit courses 110 is greater at position 812 than at position 810 such that the number of loop loops at position 812 is increased as compared to position 810 . This may reflect a desire for increased levels of insulation, cushioning, and/or stretch in this region of the lower body knitted article 800 . The positioning of locations 810 and 812 is illustrative, and it is contemplated herein that the features of knitted structure 100 described herein may be modified to achieve a desired functional effect at a desired location on a knitted article, such as lower body knitted article 800 .
图9至图11描绘了针织结构100的各方面在诸如袜子900的针织制品中的附加示例用途。图9至图11分别描绘了袜子900的外侧视图、后视图和内侧视图。袜子900包括袜领901,该袜领901具有围绕开口902的周边边缘,该开口902用于容纳穿着者的足部。袜子900附加地包括从袜领901延伸的腿部部分903和从腿部部分903延伸的足部部分904,其中足部部分904终止于足尖端905处。袜子900还包括定位在腿部部分903与足部部分904之间的足跟部分910,其中足跟部分910被配置成当袜子900被穿着时邻近穿着者的足跟区域定位。在示例方面,足跟部分910的各部分(例如,足跟袋)可以使用袜子针织领域中已知的往复针织工艺来针织。为了在袜子900被穿着时有助于将足跟部分910固定在穿着者的足跟区域上,袜子900还可以包括整体针织的足跟带912,该足跟带912被针织成围绕腿部部分903的下端周向延伸。换句话说,足跟带912是圆形针织而不是往复针织的。9-11 depict additional example uses of aspects of knitted structure 100 in a knitted article, such as sock 900 . 9-11 depict lateral, rear, and medial views of sock 900, respectively. The sock 900 includes a collar 901 having a peripheral edge surrounding an opening 902 for receiving a wearer's foot. Sock 900 additionally includes a leg portion 903 extending from collar 901 and a foot portion 904 extending from leg portion 903 , wherein foot portion 904 terminates at toe tip 905 . Sock 900 also includes heel portion 910 positioned between leg portion 903 and foot portion 904, wherein heel portion 910 is configured to be positioned adjacent a wearer's heel region when sock 900 is worn. In an exemplary aspect, portions of heel portion 910 (eg, heel pocket) may be knitted using reciprocating knitting processes known in the art of sock knitting. To help secure heel portion 910 on the wearer's heel area when sock 900 is worn, sock 900 may also include an integrally knitted heel strap 912 that is knitted around the leg portion. The lower end of 903 extends circumferentially. In other words, heel strap 912 is circular knit rather than reciprocating knit.
足跟带912具有由附图标记914指示的第一部分,该第一部分包括形成多个线圈横列的连续针织线迹,该多个线圈横列从定位在足跟部分910的后外侧处的第一位置916(如图9所示)围绕袜子900的前方面在袜子900的脚踝/足背区域延伸到定位在足跟部分910的后内侧处的第二位置918(如图11所示)。在示例方面,第一部分914可以包括较高旦尼尔的弹性纱线,其有助于将足跟带912固定在适当位置并防止在穿着期间移位。The heel strap 912 has a first portion indicated by reference numeral 914 that includes continuous knitting stitches forming a plurality of courses from a first location positioned at the posterolateral side of the heel portion 910 916 (shown in FIG. 9 ) extends around the front aspect of sock 900 at the ankle/instep region of sock 900 to a second location 918 (shown in FIG. 11 ) positioned at the posterior medial side of heel portion 910 . In an example aspect, the first portion 914 may include higher denier elastic yarns that help secure the heel strap 912 in place and prevent shifting during wear.
足跟带912还包括由附图标记920指示的第二部分。在示例方面,第二部分920从第一位置916围绕足跟部分910的顶点在足跟部分910的后部处延伸,并延伸到第二位置918。当袜子900被穿着时,第二部分920可以大致定位在穿着者的足跟的底部过渡到足跟的后部的区域。在示例方面,第一部分914与第二部分920的组合大致将足跟部分910分成上半部和下半部。The heel strap 912 also includes a second portion indicated by reference numeral 920 . In an exemplary aspect, second portion 920 extends from first location 916 at the rear of heel portion 910 around an apex of heel portion 910 , and to second location 918 . When sock 900 is worn, second portion 920 may be positioned approximately at the area where the bottom of the wearer's heel transitions to the rear of the heel. In an exemplary aspect, the combination of first portion 914 and second portion 920 generally divides heel portion 910 into upper and lower halves.
第二部分920可以使用包括主体纱线和一种或多种添纱纱线(例如,第一纱线112和第二纱线114)的一种或多种纱线针织。在示例方面,主体纱线和一种或多种添纱纱线中的每一者可以包括弹性纱线,其赋予第二部分920高回复度。在示例方面,第二部分920可以使用针织结构100的各方面来针织。例如,第二部分920可以至少使用第二数量的针织线圈横列118形成,该第二数量的针织线圈横列118具有第一数量的针织线迹120和第二数量的浮线线迹124的重复图案,该第二数量的浮线线迹124形成浮线区域128。The second portion 920 may be knitted using one or more yarns including a body yarn and one or more plating yarns (eg, first yarn 112 and second yarn 114 ). In an exemplary aspect, each of the body yarn and the one or more plating yarns may include elastic yarns that impart a high degree of recovery to the second portion 920 . In an example aspect, second portion 920 may be knitted using aspects of knitted structure 100 . For example, the second portion 920 may be formed using at least a second number of knit courses 118 having a repeating pattern of a first number of knit stitches 120 and a second number of float stitches 124 , the second number of floating line stitches 124 forms a floating line region 128 .
如上所述,与足跟带912的第一部分914相比,在浮线区域128中纱线长度更小,这导致在线圈横列方向上(即,在袜子900被穿着时内侧至外侧方向上)更大的抗拉伸性。换句话说,由于足跟带912的第一部分914不包括浮线线迹,所以与足跟带912的第二部分920相比,在内侧至外侧方向上的抗拉伸性更小。在第二部分920中,在内侧至外侧方向上的抗拉伸性更大,这进一步有助于将足跟带912固定在围绕穿着者的后足跟的位置。换句话说,足跟带912的第一部分914可以在线圈横列方向上呈现第一拉伸度,并且足跟带912的第二部分920可以在线圈横列方向上呈现第二拉伸度,其中第二拉伸度小于第一拉伸度。As noted above, the yarn length is smaller in the float region 128 compared to the first portion 914 of the heel strap 912, which results in a smaller yarn length in the course direction (i.e., in the medial to lateral direction when sock 900 is worn) Greater stretch resistance. In other words, since the first portion 914 of the heel strap 912 does not include float stitching, it is less resistant to stretch in the medial-to-lateral direction than the second portion 920 of the heel strap 912 . In the second portion 920, there is greater resistance to stretch in the medial to lateral direction, which further helps to secure the heel strap 912 in place around the wearer's rear heel. In other words, first portion 914 of heel strap 912 may exhibit a first degree of stretch in the course direction, and second portion 920 of heel strap 912 may exhibit a second degree of stretch in the course direction, wherein the first The second degree of stretching is less than the first degree of stretching.
本文各方面设想足跟部分910和/或袜子900的附加区域可以由针织结构100形成,如以上关于例如袜子300和/或袜子400所述。Aspects herein contemplate that heel portion 910 and/or additional regions of sock 900 may be formed from knitted structure 100 as described above with respect to sock 300 and/or sock 400, for example.
