Abstract

(57) [Summary] To provide a sock having a gore line of a simple shape, and having a clear left-right difference in appearance of a knitted fabric that matches the planar shape of a leg. SOLUTION: The knitting width of the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe portion following the foot portion is set such that the knitting width is reduced by one or more every one or more courses as the closer to the tip of the toe. The flat shape of the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe portion is made to be a tapered shape having left and right asymmetric side edges, and the toe side of the toe portion following the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe portion is reduced. The number of wool of the knitted fabric,
As the toe edge approaches the foot-side edge, the knitting width is increased by one or more courses on one predetermined side more than the other side, and the number of knits is increased by more than the other side. The left and right asymmetrical side edges are tapered, and the foot-side knitted fabric and the shell-side knitted fabric are knitted together with their respective side edges overlapped, excluding the tip of the toe. Gore lines with different lengths were provided on the left and right.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a sock in which the tip of the toe is shifted to the left or right from the center by adjusting the shape of the toe to the planar shape of the foot.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In general, various measures are taken for socks that are knitted into a tubular shape with a circular knitting machine when treating the toes.One is to extend the tubular knitted fabric flat and to make the toes into an arc shape. There is a simple means of sewing at the same time as cutting, and half of the needles, which had been knitting the toes in a tubular shape at the time of knitting of the toe, were stopped, and the remaining half of the knitted fabric was knitted in a flat plate shape. As the process progresses, the number of operating needles on the left and right sides is gradually reduced, and the knitting on the sole side of the toe with a trapezoidal flat shape up to the toe is knitted. It is known that the ground is knitted at both ends to the foot with the knitted fabric on the bottom of the toe.

However, in the above example, the number of needles is increased / decreased symmetrically, and the sock knitted has a left-right symmetrical flat shape. The shape of the foot usually protrudes the thumb or toe side most, and the foremost part is located closer to the thumb side than the center of the foot, so when wearing symmetrical socks, the knitted fabric of the thumb is stretched. It will be used in a state, and even if worn left and right alternately, it may cause damage to the knitted fabric of the part.

For this purpose, it has been considered to increase the area of the toe, particularly the knitted fabric on the thumb side, so that when the finger on the thumb side is wrapped, the knitted fabric is not elongated and the finger can be wrapped well. However, in that case, a large number of gore lines were made to increase the area of the knitted fabric, and the appearance was bad, and there was a fear that the wearing comfort was affected.

[0005]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 In view of the above, the present invention provides a sock having a gore line of a simple shape and a clear appearance of a knitted fabric conforming to the planer shape of a leg, with a clear difference between left and right.

[0006]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The knitting width of the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe following the foot is reduced as the approaching tip of the toe decreases the knitting width of one or more predetermined courses by one or more courses more than the other side. The planar shape of the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe portion is a tapered shape having left and right asymmetric side edges, and the waist of the knitted fabric on the side of the toe portion following the knitted fabric on the sole side of the toe portion As the number approaches the foot-side edge of the toe, the knitting width is increased by one or more on a predetermined one side every several courses more than the other side, and the knitting on the toe side of the toe is increased. The plane shape of the ground is tapered with asymmetrical side edges, and the above-described sole-side knitted fabric and the back-side knitted fabric are knitted together with the side edges overlapped with each other, Except for the tip of the toe, gore lines with different lengths are provided on the left and right sides.

[0007]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 An embodiment of the sock 1 of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The sock 1 of the present invention is knitted by a circular knitting machine with a perforated portion 2, a mouth knitted portion 3, a leg portion 4, a heel portion 5, and a foot portion 6 by ordinary knitting means. The toe 7 is knitted as follows. Half of the cylindrically arranged needles are stopped, and the other half of the needles are reciprocated by reciprocating rotation of the cylinder, and the knitting width is gradually reduced as knitting progresses to reduce the plane shape. A predetermined number of courses are knitted so as to be trapezoidal or spindle-shaped. The trapezoidal or spindle-shaped portion becomes the sole-side knitted fabric 7a of the toe portion 7. In the subsequent knitting, on the contrary, reciprocating knitting is performed while increasing the knitting width as the knitting progresses, and knitting the side-side knitted fabric 7b of the toe portion 7 having a trapezoidal or spindle-shaped planar shape. At the end of the reciprocation, the knitted fabric side edge of the shell-side knitted fabric 7b and the knitted fabric side edge of the sole-side knitted fabric 7a are integrally knitted at the end of the knitting. A bag-shaped toe portion 7 is constituted by 7a and the shell side knitted fabric 7b. The stitches of the side edges of the sole-side knitted fabric 7a and the back-side knitted fabric 7b cause the gore lines 8, 9 to appear on the left and right sides of the toe portion 7, but the toe portion 7 is formed by the right foot or the left foot. As shown in FIGS. 1B and 1C, the front end position is closer to one side than the center line XX so as to conform to the shape of either foot, as shown in FIGS. The length is different between left and right. After the knitting of the toe portion 7, the opening 13 formed between the edge portion 11 including the final course of the shell side knitted fabric 7b and the edge portion 12 of the foot portion 6 is stitched together at both end edges 8 and 9. Then, the opening 13 between the toe 7 and the foot 6 is closed.

[0008] The knitting of the trapezoidal or spindle-shaped soles 7a and insteps 7b will be described in more detail. The toe portion 7 is formed by first knitting a foot-side fabric 7a of the toe portion 7 following the foot portion 6 knitted with a needle around the entire circumference in a tubular shape. The knitting is performed by the needle around the half circumference of the circular knitting machine cylinder. The needle selection will be described with reference to the needle locus shown in FIG. 2. When the cylinder rotates forward (the needle moves to the left), the needle which is necessary for the initial knitting is selected by an actuator (not shown) in the needle selection position using an actuator (not shown). Advance to the locus of the solid line (48 in the example of FIGS. 1 and 2), and the remaining needles not required for knitting are made to go straight. This straight needle does not gain any cam operation. The needle which has advanced along the solid line is raised by the stitch cam C1 and lowered by the center cam C2 after the horizontal shift, and is lowered by contacting the stitch cam C3. It passes through the needle selection position as it is and reverses after moving to the horizontal.

When passing the needle selection position in the reverse direction after the reversal, if the course is a course that reduces the knitting width, the leading-edge needle is not selected, but is advanced straight as an inactive needle, and is selected. The needle is moved up from the needle selection position by the stitch cam C3 through the locus indicated by the broken line, lowered by the center cam C2, and further lowered by the stitch cam C1. The needle passes through the selected position as it is, then reverses after shifting to the horizontal, and enters the knitting of the third course.

In the above selection of the needle at the needle selection position, only the needle used for knitting is selected. Therefore, when knitting the sole-side knitted fabric 7a of the toe portion 7, the number of needles to be selected gradually decreases as the knitting proceeds. Conversely, as the knitting of the shell side knitted fabric progresses, the number of needles to be selected gradually increases, and half of the needles are selected in the final course.

FIG. 3 shows the increase / decrease of stitches when the sole-side knitted fabric 7a and the back-side knitted fabric 7b of the toe portion 7 are knitted by the circular knitting machine with all the needles 96 by the above knitting means. 4, the toe shown in FIG. 4 is a toe for the left foot, and the tip shown in FIG. 3 has a relatively rounded tip and the tip shown in FIG.

In the example shown in FIG. 3, the first course is knitted in the forward direction with 48 half needles at the position shown in FIG. 2, and the tip of the needle which reverses and reverses at the position when knitting the second course. The second course is knitted by reducing one needle on the head. In the 3rd course, the needle goes forward in the forward direction, but in the position, the needle at the end of the leftward movement is not selected by the aquacheta (not shown) and the needle advances to the float position. The next needle is selected and the stitch cam 2 is raised. Then, the third course is knitted along the same trajectory as the knitting of the first course. In the knitting of the fourth course, as in the knitting of the second course described above, the rightmost hand on the traveling side is selected at the position to be inactive, and the knitting of the fourth course is performed with the remaining hands. On the fifth course, there is no needle reduction, so there is no needle selection by position.

[0013] In the same manner, in the case of a course that rotates forward (leftward), in the case of a course that reverses (rightward) in the position, needles that decrease in position are selected and placed in the float position. In the above-mentioned needle selection, one or more needles can be continuously selected during knitting of one course (courses 31, 32, 33, 34 in FIG. 3). In Fig. 3, on the left side of the knitted fabric (corresponding to the right side of the sock), the position of the end wale of the knitting is the same for 4 courses for a while, and then the 3rd course and the 2nd course are the same as the folded end. The number of courses with the same wale is small, and the movement of the wale is quicker, whereas on the right side of the knitted fabric, the knitting width is reduced by one wale for each knitting of two courses, but one wale per course. At the end, and two wales at the end. For this reason, the knitted fabric has a sharply rounded shape as it approaches the tip of the sole-side knitted fabric 7a. On the back side knitted fabric 7b, contrary to the sole knitted fabric 7a, the same number of courses is knitted while increasing the same wale number as the knitting width reduced wale number of the back side knitted fabric 7b, and the needle passes through the position. The needle that was in the float position was selected and moved up to the knit position.

In the sock of the present invention, as described above, when knitting the knitted fabric of the toe portion 7, the knitting width of each course is selected for each needle both when the knitting needle is rotated forward and when the knitted needle is rotated reversely. By continuously making this selection, two or several needles can be reduced or increased in one course compared to the previous course, so that a free curve can be formed on either side edge of the knitted fabric. It is possible to knit freely with a rounded toe as shown in FIG. 3 or a sharp toe as shown in FIG.

[0015]

[Effect of the invention]

 In the socks of the present invention, when changing the knitting width during knitting of the sole-side knitted fabric and the back-side knitted fabric of the toe heel pocket, the increase / decrease of the wale on one side of the knitted fabric is changed by the increase / decrease of the wale on the other side. By changing the number of wales on the knitted fabric of the toe including the thumb, the toe including the thumb can be covered along with the shape of the foot. In order to create a huge knitted fabric to wrap the part, without using a knitted fabric with a complex arrangement of gore lines, a simple shaped gore line sock with the center of the sock toe displaced to the left or right It is possible to obtain a sock in which the shape of the toe is matched to the plane shape of the foot, and the difference between left and right in the appearance of the knitted fabric is clear.
