Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention stores the line width of each knitting row during knitting operation of a hand knitting machine while displaying it with the numbers of the needles at both ends.
This invention relates to a line width display storage device designed to reproduce and display the stored line width for each formation when duplicating each turn.

When knitting the required pattern using a hand knitting machine, the method of determining the line width for each row is usually done by calculating the index, using a knit tracer to know the number of stitches or increases and decreases in each row, and then controlling the operations for increasing and decreasing stitches. The molding process is then carried out.

Therefore, when creating a single piece, the same type of work may be repeated, such as molding exactly the same thing like sleeves or symmetrical shapes.

The present invention stores the number of stitches for each number of knitting rows in an electronic device once molded, and when molding the same item next time, displays the stored number of stitches for the new number of knitting rows, so that it can be repeated repeatedly. The first objective is to make it easier to obtain molding information in the case of reproduction, thereby making the work easier in the case of simple reproduction, and also to provide a more effective means in the case of semi-mass production. Furthermore, by means of displaying the memorized stitch data of the whole or part of one pattern in a horizontally reversed manner when reproducing and displaying it,
Another purpose is to facilitate molding of symmetrical patterns.

An embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the cross-sectional view of a home knitting machine shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of knitting needles 2 are arranged in a row on a needle bed 1 so as to be movable up and down and back and forth.

The knitting needles 2 are always in an upward direction due to the leaf spring 3, as shown in ■, and are in a high batt state.

A batt pressing member 5 is disposed on a carriage 4 that moves left and right on the needle bed 1, and presses down only the knitting needles as shown at @.
The non-knitted knitting needles do not pass through the batt reduction member 5 and are not rolled down.

This relationship shows that when the butt of the knitting needle 2 is located at the 8th position 1β as shown in Figures 2 and 3, it passes through a path like the solid line b1,
It follows the knitting cam 41, passes through the knitting path, passes through the path shown by solid line b2, and passes the lowering cam 5.

When the butt of the knitting needle 2 is located at position D (Q), the knitting needle 2 passes through the path shown by the solid line d, follows the knitting cam 41 through the knitting path, passes through the path shown by the solid line b2, and passes the lowering cam 5.

When the butt of the knitting needle 2 is located at the position E (ffl) and the knitting cam 42 is in the state ■, it passes through a path as indicated by the solid line e1, follows the knitting cam 41 through the knitting path, and passes through the path as shown in the solid line b2. It passes through the cam 5, and when the pulling cam 42 is in the ○ state, it passes through a path as indicated by the solid line e2 and does not pass through the lowering cam 5.

When the butt of the knitting needle 2 is located at the Ai position, it passes through the path shown by the solid line a and does not pass the lowering cam 5.

Therefore, what passes through the knitting cam 41 also passes through the rolling down cam 5, and what does not pass through the knitting cam 41 does not pass through the rolling down cam 5.

Further, the knitting needles 2 passing through the lowering cam 5 are lowered downward as shown in FIG.

The configuration and operation of the knitting cams related to the action of the reduction cam 5 described above is conventionally known, but in the case of the present invention, in order to detect the knitting needles under pressure for each knitting needle, eight Switches GSI to GS8 for detecting the positions of 1 to 5 on each of the pattern plates G1 to G8 and five search boards.

On each search board 1 to 5, projections 30 are provided corresponding to all the knitting needles 2 of the same block according to the block number of each knitting needle 2.

An inclined cam 31 is provided on the projection 30.

When the knitting needle 2 is pressed down and acted on by the inclined cam 31, it moves to the left in the figure.

1 to 5 on the search board also have small holes KH as shown in Figure 6.
I~5 are provided, so that when the search board moves to the left in the figure, the switch KSI is activated via the lever KLI~5.
.about.5 is applied to become the input of the electronic circuit shown in FIG.

Lever KLI~5 is applied to the search board by spring force of 1~5.
They are always pushed to the right in the figure.

As shown in FIG. 4, the pattern plates Gl~8 are regulated during movement by a positioning rod 51 and each elongated hole 52.

Similarly, the width of horizontal movement of search boards 1 to 5 is regulated by a positioning rod 51 and each elongated hole 53.

The 2-bit output of the third digit is displayed as a number on the number display device D7 via the decoder driver 314.

In the OR circuit 104, the lower cam is a new pattern switch GSI.
Each time any one of M1 to M8 is applied, the output GN is applied for the time set by M1 to M8.

OR circuit 101 has one or more lowering cams 5 and handle plate switch G
It acts while SI~8 is being applied.

In this case, the up counter 302 is reset, the decoder 303 has a 0 output, the reset input of the up counter 103 has no effect, the OR circuit 104 outputs GN, and the output of the decoder 128 also outputs 1. That is, TOPl, 2 outputs, that is, TOP2, 3
It acts sequentially with the output, and when the three outputs act, the inverting circuit 1
18, the AND circuit 109 is made inactive, the up counter 103 stops counting GN, and the decoder 1
28 is maintained with three outputs acting on it.

If all the pattern switches GSI~8 are not working, the OR circuit 101 is not working and the up counter 30 is not working.
The reset input of 2 no longer works, and the up counter 3
02 counts clock 1, and the decoder 303 outputs 0 to 1, that is T1, 2 output, 3 outputs, T
2, and when T2 acts, the inverting circuit 304
As a result, the AND circuit 301 becomes inactive, the up counter 302 stops counting, and the decoder 303 outputs T2.
remains in effect.

On the other hand, the up counter 103 is reset and the decoder 1
12 has an O output, and TOPI and TOP2 have no effect.

Up input of up/down counter 310 is switch 3
06 changes from non-working to working, and the inverting circuit 102
changes from non-action to action, that is, when the OR circuit 101 changes from action to non-action, it becomes active and counts up.

The down input of the up/down counter 310 is switch 3.
07 acts, it acts on clock 2 and counts down according to clock 2.

When the switch 309 is activated, the reset input is activated;
The up/down counter 310 is reset to mo.

The encoder 105 outputs 3 signals for each of the pattern signals Gl to 8.
It produces an output in the form of a binary code at the bit output.

That is, as the output corresponding to the pattern signal G1, [0, 0, 0
], and as the same <G8, [1°1.1] is generated, and the search board signal is connected to the lower digits of the binary 5 bits 1 to 5, and the entire 8-bit code is used for each individual on the needle bed. It is possible to identify each knitting needle.

Further, the running direction of the carriage is determined from the output order of the encoder 105.

That is, when the output TOPl of the decoder 128 occurs, each output of the encoder 105 is stored in the up counter 114.

Next, when the output TOP2 occurs, the up counter 114 is counted up and each output of the encoder 105 is stored in the latch 116.

Comparison circuit 120 includes up counter 114 and latch 116
The output acts if the outputs of are equal.

F, F115 is reset when the output TOPI occurs,
If the comparison circuit 120 is active when the output Ri is active and then the output TOP2 is active, the AND circuit 117
acts, F and F115 are set, and the output Le acts.

In other words, the number is one higher than the pattern switch number that caused the output TOP1 (GS 1 in the case of GS8)
When the output TOP2 is generated by the pattern switch, the output Le is activated.

This indicates that the lowering cam 5 attached to the carriage 4 is running to the left.

Conversely, when the lowering cam 5 is running to the right, the output Ri remains applied.

The up/down counter 108 stores 1 to 5 in the search switch signal when the output TOP1 occurs.

If the single signal Ml acts while the output Le is being generated, the AND circuit 106 acts and the up/down counter 108 counts up.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, in the case of left-hand travel, when the lowering cam 5 acts on the pattern plate Gl, the block number increases by 1, so the block number stored in the up-down counter 108 is increased by 1.

If the single mark M8 acts while the output Ri is being generated, the AND circuit 107 acts and the up/down counter 108 counts down.

As can be seen from FIG. 4, in the case of right-hand travel, when the reduction cam 5 acts on the pattern plate G8, the block number decreases by one, so the block number stored in the up-down counter 108 is decreased by one.

That is, the up/down counter 108 outputs a binary number corresponding to the block number of the knitting needle 2 newly rolled down by the rolling down cam 5.

An up/down counter 10 is input to the arithmetic circuit 119.
The output of 8 and the output of encoder 105 are connected, and the block number of the newly pressed knitting needle 2 and its pattern number are
Entered in base numbers.

The block number of the reference knitting needle 2 and its pattern number are inputted in binary numbers to the B input of the calculation circuit 119, and the calculation circuit 1
19 IA-Bl ratio output Outputs the absolute value of the difference between the binary number of the A input and the binary number of the B input as a binary number.

The arithmetic circuit 119 is a well-known circuit which is usually an addition/subtraction circuit.

That is, the number of knitting needles 2 from the newly rolled down knitting needle 2 to the reference knitting needle 2 is output as an IA-Bl ratio output binary number of the arithmetic circuit 119.

IA-Bl ratio output latch 1 when output TOP 1 occurs
20°121 to be memorized on both sides.

Then, when the output GN occurs while the output Le is occurring, the latch 120 stores a new IA-Bl ratio output.

Alternatively, if the output GN occurs while the output Ri is occurring, the latch 121 stores a new IA-Bl ratio output.

That is, in the knitting process of one stage, the position number of the knitting needle 2 that is first rolled down is also stored in the latches 120 and 121.

In the case of left travel, the position number of the knitting needle 2 is stored in the launch 120 each time the knitting needle 2 is newly pressed down.

In the case of right travel, the position number of the knitting needle 2 is stored in the latch 121 every time the knitting needle 2 is newly pressed down.

The respective outputs of the latches 120 and 121 are stored in the RAMs 316 and 317 at the addresses E1 to E8 at that time when the output T1 of the decoder 303 is generated.

Next, when T2 occurs, the RA of addresses E1 to 8 at that time
The contents of the memory of M316.317 are read.

If the switch 315 is opened manually, even if T1 occurs, the RAMs 316 and 317 will not be written to and will only be read by T2.

When the switch 318 is manually set to PL, the output of the RAM 316 is input to the converter 122 via the switching circuit 319, and the binary number is converted into a decimal number BC.
Converted to D code, decoder driver 124°125
10 decimal digits via the numeric display device DI.

Display on D2.

Similarly, the output of the RAM 317 is input to the converter 123 via the switching circuit 319, converted into a decimal number, and displayed on the numerical display devices D3 and D4.

Conversely, when the switch 318 is manually set to P2, the output of the RAM 316 is input to the converter 123 via the conversion circuit 319, converted to a decimal number, and displayed on the numerical display devices D3 and D4, and the output of the RAM 317 is It is input to the converter 122 via the conversion circuit 319, converted into a decimal number, and displayed on the numeric display device DI.

Displayed on D2.

The binary output El~8 of the up/down counter 310 is also converted into a decimal BCD code by the converter 311, and converted into a decimal BCD code by the decoder drivers 312, 313, 314.
The decimal digits are displayed on the numeric display device D5. D6. Display on Dγ.

The conversion circuit 319 switches the input and output paths as described above using a combination of gate circuits and the like.

The converters 122, 123, 311 are known 8-bit converters,
Consists of binary, to, BCD, and converter circuits.

Decoder drivers 124 to 127 and 312 to 314 are known BCD segment decoder driver circuits.

For the numeric display devices D1 to D7, LED display elements or the like are used.

In the electrical circuit shown in FIG. 7 described above, correction of timing caused by delay between elements or delicate timing is omitted.

Next, its effect will be explained.

First, in the first formation, the switch 315 is set to close, the switch 318 is set to G1, and the switch 309 is activated to reset E1 to E8 to zero.

Knitting is performed while obtaining a high stitch count using the knit tracer 204 shown in FIG.

For example, when the standard knitting needle 201 is used for left-right knitting and the carriage 4 is moved from left to right in the figure, the up counter 103 is reset until the left end knitting needle 202 is pressed down, and the decoder 128 receives the O output. are doing.

When the left end knitting needle 202 is pressed down, the TOP1 output is activated, and the latches 120 and 121 store a value of 80 in decimal, for example.

When the next rightward knitting needle acts, the TOP2 output, GN output, and Ri output are generated, and the value 79 is stored in the latch 121.

Latch 120 remains at 80.

As the lowering cam 5 moves to the right, the latch 121 moves 78, 7
7, 76... the memory changes.

Then, when the reference knitting needle 201 is pressed down, the latch 121 stores O.

Then, when the lowering cam 5 moves further to the right, the latch 120 remains at 80, and the latch 121 becomes 1, 2, 3, etc.
And the memory changes.

When the rightmost knitting needle 203 is pushed down, the latch 12
1 is stored as 80.

(Assuming that knitting is symmetrical) When the lowering cam 5 stops pressing down the knitting needles, the OR circuit 101 becomes inactive, the reversing circuit 102 becomes active, the up/down counter 310 counts up by 1, and E1~ E8 is 1 in IO base
becomes.

The up counter 302 is no longer reset, starts counting clock 1, and first outputs Tl, and then RA
M316 and 317 each have a latch 12 at address 1.
Write and store the value 80 of 0,121.

Then, after 2 outputs are generated, T2 output is generated, and RAM31
6, 317, the decimal digit 80 is displayed on the numeric display device D2. DI, D4.
The value 80 is displayed on D3 and the value 80 is still stored in the address 1 of RAMs 316 and 317, respectively.

On the other hand, numeric display device D7. D6. D5 is displayed as 1.

Here, it is assumed that the user looks at the knit tracer 204 and obtains molding information that the number of first stitches in the next stage is 79.

Assume that the user decreases the number of knitting needles at both ends by one stitch and returns to the A position.

Next, when the carriage 4 moves from right to left in the figure, a T2 output is generated until the right end knitting needle 203 is pressed down.
Decoder 128 remains at the O output.

Then, when the right end knitting needle 203 is pressed down, TOPl acts, and the latches 120 and 121 change the value of 79 in decimal to 2.
Memorize in digits.

When the next leftward knitting needle acts, the TOP2 output, GN output, and Le output are generated, and the value 78 is stored in the lunch 120.

As the lowering cam 5 moves to the left, the latch 121 remains at 79, and the latch 120 moves to 77, 76, 75...
And the memory changes.

Then, when the reference knitting needle 201 is pushed down, the latch 120 is
remember.

Then, when the lowering cam 5 further moves to the left, the latch 121 remains at 79, and the latches 121 are 1, 2, 3, etc.
The memory changes, and when the leftmost knitting needle 203 is pressed down, 79 is memorized for both the latches 120 and 121.

When the lowering cam 5 stops pressing down the knitting needles, the up/down counter 310 counts up by one more.
E1 to E8 are in a binary state representing 2 in decimal notation, and the numerical display device D7. D6. 2 is displayed in D5.

Similar to the above, Tl output is generated in the decoder 303, and the RAM 31
6, 317, and 79 are stored in the 2nd address, respectively, and the contents are read out by the next T2 output and displayed on the numeric display device D2, DI, numeric display device D4 . 79 is displayed on D3.

At the same time, the value 79 is written in binary at the address 2 of the RAMs 316 and 317.

In the same way, the state of the knitting needles in each row is stored in RAM.
316.317.

For example, if you want to knit the same thing again, set the switch 315 open, actuate the switch 309 to reset it, and actuate the switch 308 once, and El to 8 becomes l.

Since the T2 output is still generated because it has not been organized yet, the value 80 stored at address 1 is displayed on the numeric display device D 2 tDl, the numeric display device D4 . 80 is displayed on D3, and the user sets the number of stitches accordingly.

Once the number of stitches is set, El to 8 are reset to 1 to knit one row.

This time, switch 315 is open, so RAM 316,
317 has a read function only, and latches 120 and 12
The effects up to 1 become irrelevant.

OR circuit 101, inversion circuit 10 due to one-stage organization
2 acts, the up/down counter 310 counts up by 1, and E1 to E8 become 2, and the RAM 316, 31
7, the content 79 of address 2 is read out and displayed.

The user looks at this and reduces the number of stitches at both ends by one stitch.

In this way, the number of stitches of the pattern once knitted can be displayed again.

Next, as shown in FIG. 9, the reference knitting needle 2 is
When knitting on the right side of 01, if the switch 315 is closed and the switch 318 is set to Pi and the carriage 4 moves from left to right in the figure, the left end knitting needle 2
The up counter 103 is reset and the decoder 128 receives the O output until the number 11 is lowered.

Then, when the left end knitting needle 211 is pushed down, the TOPI output is activated, and the latches 120 and 121 are set to 22 in the IO system, for example.
Store the value.

Then, when the next right knitting needle acts, the TOP2 output, GN output, and Ri output are generated, and the value 23 is stored in the latch 121.

Latch 120 remains at 22. As the lowering cam 5 moves to the right, the launch 120 remains at 22 and the latch 121 changes to 2.
The memory changes as 4, 25, 26...

When the rightmost knitting needle 212 is pushed down, the latch 12
0 is memorized as 22, latch 121 as 41, and the lowering cam 5
When the knitting needles are no longer pressed down, RA is placed at addresses E1 to E8 at that time.
M316.317 and numeric display device D2
, DI is 22, numeric display device D4. D3 displays 41.

In this way, the shoulder area is also written in the RAM, but
When knitting opposite shoulders as shown in FIG. 10, the shoulder parts are number display devices D2, DI and D4. It is necessary to display D3 in reverse order.

Therefore, when one shoulder is finished knitting, the outputs of the up/down counters 310E1-8 are returned to the membrane display at the beginning of the shoulder.

In this case, by operating the switch 307, E1 to E8 can be quickly reversed at the operating speed of the clock 2.

Then, switch 318 is set to the G2 side.

Switch 315 is set open.

Since the switch 318 is set to the G2 side, the RAM
The contents stored in 316 are displayed on numerical display devices D4 and D.
The contents displayed on D2.3 and written in the RAM 317 are displayed on the numerical display device D2. Since it is displayed in the DI, by knitting the number of stitches according to the DI, the remaining shoulder part can be molded symmetrically with the previous one.

As shown above, the present invention stores the number of stitches for each knitting stage in the RAM during knitting of one pattern, and when replicating the same pattern as the mother pattern, the stored data is read out sequentially and the number of stitches is Since all you have to do is arrange the stitches according to the display, the duplication process is easy and there are fewer errors.

An additional note regarding this reduction in errors is that the number of stitches in each row appears on the display each time the initial matrix is being knitted, so you can avoid mistakes in setting the number of stitches by being able to confirm this along with the display of the line membrane. It has the advantage of being easy.

Also, when re-knitting due to a knitting mistake, you can unravel the knitted fabric of the step you want to re-knit, and adjust the display D5 to D7 of the line membrane to 4''L and return it to the next knitting. Since the read-out display of the previously stored data can be used for the stitch setting, stitch setting is easy.

Furthermore, when knitting a left-right symmetrical type, one type is used as a matrix and the data of the part marked in the knitting is used as a read-out display by reversing the left-right display using the left-right display switching means.
Symmetrical replication work can be done easily.
