Patent number: 7306014Abstract: In a lower surface side layer of an industrial two-layer fabric, warps are formed by sequentially arranging a repeating design unit, in which one warp passes over six successive lower surface side wefts, passes under one lower surface side weft, passes over two lower surface side wefts, and passes under one lower surface side weft while shifting the design by three lower surface side wefts. Two adjacent lower surface side warps simultaneously weave therein, from the lower surface side, one lower surface side weft, whereby the lower surface side weft passes over two lower surface side warps and then passes under eight lower surface side warps to form a weft long crimp corresponding to eight lower surface side warps on the lower surface side surface.Type: GrantFiled: November 10, 2005Date of Patent: December 11, 2007Assignee: Nippon Filcon Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hiroyuki Nagura, Ikuo Ueda, Keiichi Takimoto

Patent number: 6540286Abstract: According to a body structure of the present invention, a floor panel member is reinforced by a pair of first members, and the second member comprised of plural pipes is disposed along the width of a vehicle so as to integrate the first members. An end of the second member is extended along the longitudinal side of the vehicle and is fixed by welding in the state of penetrating into a side sill. There is no necessity of providing any reinforcement material because the second member has a high strength continuously along the width of the vehicle. Moreover, there is no necessity of increasing a board thickness for the purpose of securing the rigidity because the second member penetrates into the side sill. On the other hand, the second member can be manufactured by cutting an existing steel pipe to a predetermined side. It is therefore possible to cope with the change in the width of the vehicle only by changing a cutting size.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2001Date of Patent: April 1, 2003Assignees: Mitsubishi Jidosha Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha, Mitsubishi Jidosha Engineering Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Yorito Takemoto, Kunio Takaoka, Toshiaki Sakurai, Hiroyuki Nagura, Eiichi Kobayashi, Masataka Miura

Patent number: 6510873Abstract: A press fabric for a pulp machine is a weft-abrading type fabric manufactured by weaving a warp monofilament and a bundled yarn. The bundled yarn has fine water-sucking spaces formed between raw filaments of a small diameter by bundling up the raw filaments. Monofilaments may also be used as the wefts in combination with the bundled yarns. The bundled yarn forms the most protuberant crimp to the surface of the fabric which results in improved water-sucking ability, washing ability, showering resistance, and abrasion resistance.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2001Date of Patent: January 28, 2003Assignee: Nippon Filcon Co. Ltd.Inventor: Hiroyuki Nagura
