  • Stitch bonded fabrics
    Patent number: 3996770
    Abstract: A fleece fabric is produced by feeding a fiber web to a reciprocating compound needle row and extending the web fibers across the needle row. A reciprocatory, rotary brush or comb, or a pin bar is used to feed the fibers to the needle row. The conventional cross folder can be dispensed with, and the fabric is stronger than when the web fibers are orientated before they are fed to the needles. The fabric has a density between twice and 15 times that of the constituent web.
