Description

The present invention relates to gloves and a method for manufacturing gloves.

As a glove knitted by a knitting machine, in order to improve cut resistance and the like, a glove in which a flat portion and a ridge-shaped portion provided along the course direction are provided in a finger bag and a palm portion has been proposed (special feature). Open 2013-151778 (see).

In the method for manufacturing gloves described in this publication, one or more courses are knitted at a position where one or more knitting needles do not act in the course direction, and after knitting, the knitting yarn at the above-mentioned inactive position is knitted adjacent to the core. The tubular ridge-shaped portion is formed by contracting. Specifically, when knitting the ridge-shaped portion, the ridge-shaped portion is knitted by a knitting needle other than the non-acting position, and then the pair of base ends of the ridge-shaped portion are knitted by the knitting needle at the non-acting position. By contracting, the tubular ridge-shaped portion is formed.

However, the gloves obtained by the manufacturing method described in the above publication do not use the knitting needle at the non-acting position when knitting the ridge-shaped portion, so that the number of stitches in the course direction of the ridge-shaped portion is small. If the number of stitches in the course direction of the ridged portion is increased, the number of knitting needles at the non-acting position is reduced, and the number of stitches for maintaining the contraction between the pair of base ends of the ridged portion is reduced. Therefore, it cannot be said that the ridge-shaped portion formed by the production method described in the above publication has sufficient strength.

As a result, the shape of the ridge body portion of the ridge can be reliably maintained by the connecting portion composed of two or more courses of stitches, and the strength of the ridge-shaped portion can be improved.

It is preferable that the plurality of stitches at one proximal end in the wale direction of the connecting portion are composed of the same course as the stitches at one proximal end of the pair of proximal ends of the ridge body portion. In this way, since one base end of the ridge body portion and the base end of the connecting portion are reliably connected on the same course, the strength of the ridge-shaped portion can be improved. Further, it is preferable that both the stitch at the other proximal end in the wale direction of the connecting portion and the stitch at the other proximal end of the pair of proximal ends of the ridge body portion are hung on the same stitch. As a result, the other base end of the ridge body portion and the connecting portion are reliably connected via the same stitch as described above, so that the strength of the ridge-shaped portion can be improved.

The ridge-shaped portion has a hole-filling portion composed of a stitch of the ridge body portion and a stitch continuous in the course direction, and the number of stitches in the wale direction at the hole-filling portion is the number of stitches in the wale direction at the ridge body portion. Less is preferred. With such a hole filling portion, the gap at the side end of the ridge body portion can be accurately eliminated.

It is preferable that the fill-in-the-blank portion has at least two stitches in the wale direction, and at least two of these stitches are hung on the stitches adjacent to these stitches in the wale direction. In this way, at least two stitches constituting the fill-in-the-blank portion are hung on one stitch (the stitches adjacent to these stitches in the wale direction), so that the knitting at the portion hung on this one stitch is performed. The ratio (abundance amount) of the yarn is increased, and the voids can be more accurately eliminated by the hole filling portion.

Further, another invention made to solve the above problems is a method for manufacturing gloves for knitting a knitted fabric by spanning a plurality of stitches continuous in the course direction with stitches in the corresponding wale directions. , A step of forming one ridge body constituent part by spanning a plurality of stitches in the course direction with corresponding stitches in the wale direction, and by contracting the base end of the ridge body constituent part in the wale direction, as described above. It has a step of forming a ridge main body part in which the ridge main body constituent part is raised on the outer surface side or the inner surface side, and is arranged on the opposite side of the ridge main body constituent part from the raised side of the ridge main body part in the course direction. A connecting portion having a plurality of stitches is formed, and the ridge-shaped portion forming step connects the stitches located in the wale direction of the base end of the ridge body constituent portion by the connecting portion to form the ridge body constituent portion. This is the process of shrinking.
