Abstract

A single warp-knitted pile fabric comprising loop courses of ground and pile threads, wherein the loops of the pile threads are run jointly with the ground loops and interconnected by the floats of these loops. Transfers are run on from the pile threads in the same courses as the loops of these pile threads. The floats of the transfers are laid in some courses to overlie the floats of the ground loops, whereas in other courses the floats of the transfers are laid to underlie the floats of the ground loops.

Claims

1. A single warp-knitted pile fabric of ground threads and pile threads, comprising:

loop courses of the ground threads and of the pile threads, wherein the loops of the pile threads are run jointly with the loops of the ground threads;

floats, respectively, of the loops of the ground threads and of the loops of the pile threads, interconnecting said courses;

transfers of the pile threads laid in the same said loop courses where the loops of said pile threads are run;

the floats of said transfers in some of said courses overlying the floats of the ground loops and in other ones of said courses underlying the floats of the ground loops.

2. A single warp-knitted pile fabric as set forth in claim 1, wherein said some loop courses where said floats of said transfers overlie the floats of ground loops alternate with said other ones of said loop courses wherein said floats of said transfers underlie the floats of the ground loops.

3. A single warp-knitted pile fabric as set forth in claim 1, wherein all said transfers of said pile threads in said loop courses are situated to one and the same side of the loops of said pile threads.

4. A single warp-knitted pile fabric as set forth in claim 1, wherein said transfers of said pile threads in adjacent ones of said loops courses are situated to opposite sides of the loops of said pile threads.

5. A single warp-knitted pile fabric as set forth in claim 1, wherein one of said floats of each said transfer of the pile threads in that one of said loop courses where it underlies the floats of the ground loops is led to a side opposite to the location of the transfer, to interlock the float of a ground loop situated in the same said loop course to the other side of the loop of said pile thread.
