Abstract: A card wire comprises an elongated rib portion and teeth. The teeth have a front portion and a back portion. The teeth hang over towards their front portion. The front portion and back portion merge at the tip of the tooth. The front portion comprises at least three sections: a first section extends from the tip of the tooth in the direction of the rib portion, a second section extends below the first section in the direction of the rib portion and a third section extends from the end of the second section in the direction of the rib portion. The second section comprises a straight part and a curved segment, wherein the straight part has a minimum length of 0.10 mm and the straight part has an angle between 10 and 30 degrees relative to the length direction of the card wire.

Abstract: A wire profile having a rib portion and plurality of teeth over the length of said rib portion, wherein said plurality of teeth is inclined at an angle with respect to the said rib portion, wherein said teeth has a front portion and a back portion, wherein said front portion is the inner portion of the said teeth leaning towards the rib portion and said back portion is the outer portion of the said teeth, and wherein at least one teeth with said back portion comprises at least one nose cut segment.

Abstract: A wire profile comprises a rib portion and a plurality of teeth over the length of the rib portion. The teeth are sloped with a back slope representing the backbone of the teeth and a front slope representing the side in direct contact with fiber. The back slope has a tangent forming a hack angle with the rib portion, and the front slope is divided into at least two segments, a tip segment converging with the back slope to form a tip of the teeth and serving to penetrate between fibers, and an undercut segment to retain the fibers. The undercut segment has a tangent forming an undercut angle with the rib portion, and the undercut angle is at each point in the undercut segment greater than the maximum of the hack angle and smaller than the smallest value of the tip angle.
