Abstract: The woven papermaking fabrics have a machine direction (MD) axis and a cross-machine direction (CD) axis, a machine contacting surface and a web contacting surface. The web contacting surface comprises a plurality of MD and CD oriented protuberances. Generally, the MD oriented protuberances are formed from warp filaments and may be continuous across one dimension of the papermaking fabric. The CD oriented protuberances are formed from shute filaments and are discrete. The fabrics may be woven such that the CD oriented protuberances traverse at least one MD oriented protuberance and in other instances two or more MD oriented protuberances. In addition to MD and CD oriented protuberances, the web contacting surface comprises valleys disposed between adjacent MD oriented protuberances. The valleys are generally permeable to air and water and aid in the formation and structuring of webs manufactured using the fabrics.

Abstract: A corrugated protective textile sleeve has a flexible, tubular wall of woven warp yarns, extending lengthwise along a longitudinal axis between opposite ends of the wall, and weft yarns, extending generally transversely to the warp yarns. At least some of the weft yarns are activatable weft yarn to shrink in length and at least some the weft yarns, adjacent the activatable weft yarn, are substantially non-activatable weft yarn. The substantially non-activatable weft yarn form crests, having a first diameter, spaced axially from one another and the activatable weft yarns, upon being activated and shrunken, form valleys, having a second diameter less than the first diameter, with at least some of the valleys extending between the crests to form the wall having a corrugated contour.

Abstract: Woven papermaking fabrics useful in the manufacture of fibrous structures, particularly wet-laid tissue products that allow the web contacting surface of the fabric to be woven with three-dimensional topography comprising protuberances that are oriented at an angle relative to both the machine direction (MD) axis and cross-machine (CD) axis of the fabric. The protuberances may be discrete or continuous and, in certain preferred embodiments, intersect one another to form discrete valleys there between. The valleys may have relatively steep sidewalls, such as wall angles greater than 22 degrees, and be relatively deep, such as valley depths greater than about 0.35 mm.

Abstract: A multi-layer fabric, and an airbag formed of the multi-layer fabric are provided. The multi-layer fabric can provide an airbag capable of sufficiently protecting a driver or a passenger by minimizing damage caused by broken glass fragments when a vehicle is overturned. The multi-layer fabric includes an inflating part, and a co-woven part surrounding the inflating part. At least one layer of the inflating part includes a first region formed of two or more types of weaves comprising 1/1 plain weave.

Abstract: A weaving machine includes a shed forming device, a weft insertion device, and a weaving reed that beats up the weft threads at a beat up plane against an edge of the woven fabric. A guide device extends over a width of the woven fabric and is driven by a drive, the guide device being one or both of an upper guide unit that contacts a top surface of the woven fabric or a lower guide unit that contacts a bottom surface of the woven fabric. A control unit controls alternating movement of the guide unit along the direction of thickness of the woven fabric as the fabric is being woven based on information related to one or both of a structure of the woven fabric in the area of the beat up plane or a position of the warp threads in the open loom shed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are face shields, eyewear, and kits which provide a user the ability to protect their face from solids or liquids while simultaneously providing the ability to manipulate any eyewear the user may desire to wear.

Abstract: Flame resistant fabrics formed with fiber blends that provide the requisite flame and thermal protection but that have improved durability. In some embodiments this is accomplished with the use of fiber blends that include relatively large percentages of FR nylon fibers in combination with cellulosic and inherently flame resistant fibers.

Abstract: A protective non-helmeted single molded facemask for sports includes a frame structure formed of a polycarbonate polymer that is structured and configured to engage a user's forehead, side and cheek facial structure and chin. An arrangement of vertical and horizontal bars in the central and lower portion of the face area of the facemask protect the users nose and mouth from direct contact with external objects, and particularly softballs, soccer balls, floor hockey sticks and pucks and field hockey sticks and balls. Upper and lower straps extend from slotted openings on the sides of the facemask and are positioned and arranged to extend around the lower back of the wearer's head to secure the facemask on the wearer's head. The facemask is designed to also significantly reduce the effective impact forces to the wearer's brain.
