  • Patent number: 6728998
    Abstract: A woven fastener product includes an array of hook elements and an array of loop elements that extend from the surface of different respective regions of a common fabric base. The arrays are formed by warp yarns, the arrays being separated in the warp direction of the fabric base. To form a self-engaged fastening, the fastener product is conformed so that the hook elements overlie the loop elements. Monofilament loops are shown sized and located to provide pin-receiving mounting sleeves as part of the woven structure.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20020185192
    Abstract: A woven fastener product is shown in which monofilament loops woven in the structure are shown sized and located to provide pin-receiving mounting sleeves as part of the woven structure to fasten a device or object to the woven structure. In one case, a pair of sleeves has a pre-determined spacing corresponding to the spacing between a pair of mounting pins of a pre-determined device such as a wrist watch. In another case, an extensive field of mounting sleeves formed by a series of adjacent, parallel rows of the sleeves enable the mounting on the same band of different devices having different mounting pin spacings, e.g., to enable different size watches to be used on the same type of band. The mounting loops lying between those that correspond with the particular mounted device provide a cushioning effect adding to comfort and secure positioning of the watch or other device on the band.
