Patent number: 10358748Abstract: A protective woven fabric of the present invention includes super fiber yarns. The warp of the woven fabric is a covered yarn (1, 4, 5) composed of two or more twisted inorganic filament yarns as core yarns (2a, 2b) and one or more super fiber yarns (3, 3a, 3b, 3c) as covering yarns that are wound and twisted around the core yarns (2a, 2b), and a weft thereof is a super fiber yarn. Preferably, the covered yarn is a W covered yarn in which a twist coefficient K of the covering yarns with respect to the core yarns is 2000 to 30000. Due to this, it is possible to provide a protective woven fabric that, even when the warp and the weft is squeezed or rubbed by the reed, heddles, etc., of a loom, has few defects such as fluff or fiber aggregates and which has a satisfactory weaving pattern while retaining a high protective function.Type: GrantFiled: January 18, 2016Date of Patent: July 23, 2019Assignee: The Japan Wool Textile Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ichiro Sugimoto, Keita Tasaki

Publication number: 20090056043Abstract: It is desired to realize designing of a light, compact body and improved brushing effect and massage effect without causing any inconvenience, and to prevent the tip of a brush formed by a bristle bundle from remaining curled. A flexible diaphragm 13 which is displaced together with a reciprocative base 10 of a brush 9 is provided between a body space 2 and a brush guide passage 6. An air introduction hole 15 having a valve 14 which opens only to the inside is formed in a midpoint of the brush guide passage 6. When the diaphragm 13 is displaced toward the body space 2 with the reciprocation motion of the base 10, air is introduced through the air introduction hole 15 into the brush guide passage 6, which is now under negative pressure. When the diaphragm 13 is displaced toward the brush guide passage 6, the introduced air is compressed and is ejected from the opening 6a at the tip.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2005Publication date: March 5, 2009Inventor: Ichiro Sugimoto

Patent number: 6083621Abstract: Processed plant fine fibers such as those from the mesocarp of a coconut together are blended with a biodegradable plastic to produce a biodegradable plastic product that can be further made into other items. Plastics thus made from coconut husk fine fiber powder will return to the environment after disposal much more rapidly than those without coconut husk fine fiber powder. In the process, a dry compressed plant fine fiber powder is created from fine fibers of the coconut mesocarp. An example product created from this raw material is composed of 10 to 40% by weight of dry coconut husk powder mixed with environmentally degradable plastic. Environmentally non-degradable plastic may be added to the dry powder as a biodegradation rate modulator to create a modified raw material with a modified biodegradation rate. Plastic additives, standard in the industry, can be added to achieve additional desired properties.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 1998Date of Patent: July 4, 2000Inventor: Ichiro Sugimoto
