Abstract: A fabric integrating one or more binding parts with a tie obtained by the following textile construction of the fabric: a) the fabric includes two superposed individual layers of fabric secured to one another, one outer layer on the tie side and the other inner layer lining the inner layer of fabric, b) several warp threads of the outer layer of fabric, called binding threads as they together form a binding loop, freely overlapping several weft threads of the same layer and/or several weft threads of the outer layer of fabric, called binding threads as they together form a binding loop, freely overlapping several warp threads of the same layer, with the inner layer of fabric, an eyelet for passage of the tie at the place where the weft and/or warp threads overlap, obtained by deformation and/or extension of said binding threads, at the binding location of the fabric.

Abstract: A method for obtaining a multifunctional, heterogeneous, sectored technical fabric usable for manufacturing various finished articles or products. A multiplicity of respectively different functional areas are defined and marked on a template of a flexible part belonging to the article to be produced; a multisector fabric including a multiplicity of respectively different textile sectors is constructed, which sectors respectively correspond to the areas defined in step (a), the latter being able to be respectively contained in the different sectors; the fabric constructed according to step (b) is woven to obtain a multisector fabric part; fabric cutting means are available, able to be referenced with respect to the drawing of the fabric; and the monoblock but multifunctional flexible part is thus directly cut and obtained. The invention can find an application in different sectors, and in particular in that of footwear for which the upper has to be obtained.

Abstract: An electric steam iron having a heating baseplate (1) and a vaporization chamber (2), and further including a plate (7) on which are fixed or formed at least part of the device (3) for feeding water to the vaporization chamber (2), an assembly (4) for regulating the flow of water and components for regulating the heating temperature and the electrical connections. The plate (7) and parts mounted thereon are preassembled and then assembled as a module into the iron.
