Patent number: 11894164Abstract: A stretchable conductor includes a substrate with a first major surface, wherein the substrate is an elastomeric material. An elongate wire is on the first major surface of the substrate; the wire includes a first end and a second end, and further includes at least one arcuate region between the first end and the second end. At least one portion of the arcuate region of the wire in the region has a first surface area portion embedded in the surface of the substrate and a second surface area portion unembedded on the substrate and exposed in an amount sufficient to render at least an area of the substrate in the region electrically conductive. The unembedded second surface portion of the arcuate region may lie above or below a plane of the substrate. Composite articles including a stretchable conductor in durable electrical contact with a conductive fabric are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2020Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: 3M INNOVATIVE PROPERTIES COMPNAYInventors: Ankit Mahajan, James Zhu, Saagar A.

Patent number: 6263814Abstract: A package of a continuous strip of material includes a plurality of parallel side by side stacks each containing a length of the strip which is folded back and forth such that each folded portion of the stack is folded relative to the next portion about a line transverse to the strip and such that the side edges of the strip portions are aligned. The strip of material includes a splice defined by the two ends of the strip. The two ends of the strip are held together by yarn stitches passing through and bridging the strip ends.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 1998Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: BKI Holding CorporationInventor: Lawrence J. O'Connor

Patent number: 4741055Abstract: A fur covering comprising a fur material made of new fur or particularly even waste pieces form cutting furs, a net into which string may be knitted or wound and which has elasticity, and a sewing thread. In accordance with the invention process for making a fur covering such as a shawl, the fur material is rolled round each side of the net and concurrently, is sewed up round each side of the net with the sewing thread and thereby, these are formed into a united body and become the fur shawl.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 1987Date of Patent: May 3, 1988Assignee: Sam Yang Fur Co., Ltd.Inventor: Joung-Ho Lee

Patent number: 4718174Abstract: A template for cutting and folding furs is disclosed. The template is symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal seam of the skins or furs. The template has a removable central portion defined laterally by two segments or sides that are parallel to each other and parallel to the longitudinal seam between the skins, and transversely by segments or sides, one of which faces the tail of the skin which is aligned with the longitudinal axis of the template, along a cutting line having a curvature. The barycentre of the removable central portion is almost aligned with the transverse seam lines of the skins.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1986Date of Patent: January 12, 1988Assignee: Paola Fendi & S.lle S.A.S.Inventor: Roberto Masci

Patent number: 4445951Abstract: A method of manufacturing a composite material in which layers of reinforcing filaments are stitched across with filaments of a thermoplastic polymer and then interposed between sheets of the same thermoplastic polymer as that used to stitch across the reinforcing filaments. The resultant stack is then heated under pressure for sufficient time for the thermoplastic polymer to impregnate the reinforcing filaments whereupon the thus formed composite is cooled under compression in order to avoid any distortion thereof.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 1982Date of Patent: May 1, 1984Assignee: Rolls-Royce LimitedInventors: David J. Lind, Joyce Richards
