Washer for tubular knitted fabric material

A washer for utilizing a washing liquid for washing a continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material having a total surface area and a tension and for maximizing exposure of the total surface area of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material to the washing liquid by ballooning the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material while minimizing and keeping constant the tension of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material to thereby provide a more effective wash of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material, comprising:

• a) a frame;
• b) a set of rollers;
• c) an air nozzle rack;
• and
• d) a controller;
• wherein said frame is for resting on a support surface;
• wherein said set of rollers are rotatably attached within the frame;
• wherein said set of rollers are for guiding the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material through the washing liquid for washing the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material;
• wherein said air nozzle rack is replaceably attached to within said frame;
• wherein said air nozzle rack is for blowing air onto the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material to cause the ballooning of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material for maximizing the exposure of the total surface area of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material to the washing liquid;
• wherein said controller is operatively connected to said set of rollers;
• and
• wherein said controller is for minimizing and keeping constant the tension of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material as the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material passes through the washing liquid under an influence of said air nozzle rack to thereby provide the more effective wash of the continuous piece of tubular knitted fabric material.
