智能纺织品领域用圆形针织物线圈纵行方向上的添纱集成

Integration of additional threads in stitch wale direction of circular knitted fabrics for Smart Textile applications

作为德累斯顿工业大学纺织机械与高性能材料技术研究所(ITM)中小型企业中心创新计划(ZIM)资助项目的一部分,ITM与德国中小型企业Rolf Mayer针织公司(Roma)和Harry Lucas机械公司合作,开发了一款具有创新性且成本效益高的针织大圆机(LCKM)附加装置。通过该附加装置,一组附加的层状纱线可沿线圈纵行方向织入双正面或双罗纹织物。添纱与纬纱一起,同时织入线圈横列方向,这就允许在一个生产步骤中,在织物结构中制备晶格状的、互相关联的面板加热元件,所得织物可用作纺织加热片和传感器元件。以在纬编双针盘针织物中采用弹性纱和导电纱编织加热板元件为例,这种方法显示了其在家纺领域整体化生产功能性纬编针织可加热纺织品的潜力。

In the context of a research cooperation as part of the Central Innovation Program for SMEs（ZIM）at the ITM,together with the SME＇s roma Strickstoff-Fabrik Rolf Mayer（Roma）and Maschinenfabrik Harry Lucas（Lucas）,an innovative and cost-effective add-on device for large circular knitting machines（LCKM）was developed and realized with which an additional thread sheet can be knitted into right-right（RR）and interlock circular-knitted fabrics in stitch wale direction.In combination with weft yarns simultaneously incorporated in stitch course direction,this allows the production of lattice-like,interconnected panel heating elements in the fabric structure in a single production step.These can be used for textile heating sheet and sensor elements.Using apanelheating element made of elastic and electrically conductive yarns in an interlock circular-knitted fabric as an example,the potential of the method is shown for an integrative manufacture of functionalized circular-knitted fabrics for heatable textile products in the field of home textiles.
