Patent number: 11571873Abstract: A stitched fabric including a foam core and a yarn stitched through and forming stitch holes in the foam core, where the yarn extends over at least a majority of a width and a length of the stitched fabric. In some cases, the yarn and the foam core are free from contact by another layer on either side of the foam core. In some cases, a barrier layer is disposed over at least one side of the foam core and a melted portion of the barrier layer fills a portion of the stitch holes. In some cases, the foam core is a closed cell aerogel foam core.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2020Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: SWNR Development, LLCInventors: Dustin English, Timm Smith, Daniel L.

Publication number: 20230030706Abstract: A stitched fabric including a barrier layer; a yarn stitched through and forming stitch holes in the barrier layer, and a foam core formed over the barrier layer. A melted portion of the barrier layer fills at least a portion of the stitch holes. The foam core is prevented from progressing further into the stitched fabric by the barrier layer. As such, the barrier layer is configured to control a depth to which the foam core penetrates into the stitched fabric. The foam core may be formed over at least a portion of the yarn. A second foam core may be formed on a side of the barrier layer opposite the foam core.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Dustin English, Timm Smith, Daniel L.
