摘要:
A compression foot garment is integrally knit of a body yarn, and adapted for wear on a foot of a user. The foot garment incorporates first and second high compression zones, and a compression release zone between the high compression zones. The first high compression zone is adapted for applying substantially circumferential compression to the foot below the plantar fascia between the calcaneus and metatarso-phalangeal joints and generally around the midfoot. The second high compression zone is adapted for applying substantially circumferential compression to the foot above the calcaneus and generally around an ankle of the user. The first and second high compression zones may comprise elastic yarns integrated with the body yarn. The compression release zone is adapted for applying reduced compression to the foot in an area between the first and second high compression zones.

A knitted-in band for terminating a raw edge of footless pantyhose has a stretch factor and a thickness for the leg band and a stretch factor and a thickness for the leg portion. The stretch factor of the leg band is approximately equal to the stretch factor of the leg portion and the thickness of the leg band is approximately equal to the thickness of the leg portion.

Disclosed is a method of fabricating a hosiery garment. The garment has a pair of limb portions and a torso portion knitted from a continuous tubular member in a seamless manner. A gusset is created on one side of said tubular member over a limited intermediate portion thereof by gathering fabric during said knitting. A slit is formed in said tubular member opposite the gusset to define said torso portion with said limb portions extending on either side thereof. A waistband is sewn on the slit to fold the linear tubular member about the torso portion's longitudinal axis. Preferably the ratio of fabric of the torso portion to the gusset is 5:1.

An article of apparel is disclosed that includes a textile with at least one property that changes upon exposure to a physical stimulus. The textile has a modifiable structure formed from one or more yarns that exhibit a dimensional transformation upon exposure to the physical stimulus. The yarns have a first set of dimensions when unexposed to the physical stimulus, and the yarns have a second set of dimensions when exposed to the physical stimulus. The structure of the textile is modified by exposing the textile to the physical stimulus such that the yarns transform from the first set of dimensions to the second set of dimensions and change the property of the textile. Reinforcing structures, incisions, partial incisions, and coatings may also be utilized to enhance the textile structures

There is provided a laminated fabric with a structure in which a face textile is laminated on one side of a durable film with a temporary adhesive layer interposed therebetween and a back textile is laminated on the other side of the durable film with a durable adhesive layer interposed therebetween.

A mat useful for reinforcing composite materials is made up of at least first and second sets of fibers, the first set of fibers laid as a ply in spaced apart parallel relationship in the direction of construction and the second set laid as a ply in spaced apart parallel relationship perpendicular to the direction of construction. These fibers define interstices, into which a continuous filament is knitted to provide stability. The filament has a core portion and a sheath portion, the sheath portion having a lower melting point than the core portion. The sheath portion is thermally fusible to form a plurality of closed loops in which the respective sets of fibers are entrapped. The fibers are glass or glass rovings and the filament is a polyester, the core portion being a high-viscosity poly(ethylene terephthalate) and the sheath portion being a low-viscosity poly(ethylene terephthalate).

A method of knitting an elastic drawcord product and an elastic band and drawcord composite product are described. The method involves knitting a pair of elastic webs in a laterally spaced relationship to each other, and securing a drawcord within the space between the elastic webs by way of first and second tying yarns. The first tying yarn reciprocates across the space between the first and second elastic webs and is alternatively secured to the side edges thereof along the front face of the elastic webs. The second tying yarn reciprocates across the space between the first and second elastic webs and is alternatively secured to the side edges thereof along the rear face of the webs, and the drawcord is secured between the two elastic webs and the first and second tying yarns. The tying yarns can be reciprocated for a number of courses, then held along the side of one of the webs for a predetermined number of courses before resuming reciprocation, to form sets of tie legs which cover spaced apart portions of the space between the elastic webs. The elastic drawcord product can be integrally formed on a knitting machine with the drawcord being inserted while the elastic threads in the elastic webs are in an extended form, to provide a drawcord with an effective length which is longer than that of the elastic band in its unextended condition.

A method of the invention relates to treating a textile base material for thermobonding interlining, the material being constituted by a woven fabric or a weft knit that includes texturized synthetic threads, in particular air jet texturized threads, which form loops on a top face that is to receive spots of glue, and on an opposite, bottom face. The method consists in subjecting said textile base material, prior to applying spots of glue thereto, to emerizing or equivalent pre-treatment on its bottom face and to pre-treatment on its top face for reducing the height of the loops, e.g. singeing or heat treatment by radiation or by contact. Preferably, the textile base material is initially subjected to emerizing or equivalent pre-treatment on its bottom face, and subsequently to singeing pre-treatment on its top face.

An elastic band is fabricated with an integrated drawcord utilizing a crochet-type warp knitting machine by initially knitting a finished elastic band and, then, re-routing the finished band back through the knitting machine to a second knitting location at which fabric piercing needles are utilized to knit additional warp and filling yarns while a drawcord is simultaneously fed between the piercing needles to form a covering web over the drawcord defining a tunnel area between the covering web and the finished band in which the drawcord is captured.

An improved panty hose method and construction utilizes a pair of seamless, knit, stretch stockings each of which in the upper portion used for forming the panty is knit with a welt portion followed by an upper panty portion of the same stretch diameter and which is followed by a lower panty portion which abruptly increases in stretch diameter at the juncture of the two portions whereby to produce a form-fitting shape.
