Patent number: 10507627Abstract: In an example, a system for forming a dust-mitigating fabric includes a warp-strand-delivery unit including warp strands. The warp strands include insulative-warp strands and conductive-warp strands. The system includes a plurality of heddles that receive the warp strands, and a plurality of harnesses coupled to the heddles. The dust-mitigating fabric has an adapter for receiving one or more phases of an electrical signal. The warp strands include a group of insulative-warp strands and one or more groups of conductive-warp strands. Each group of conductive-warp strands corresponds to a respective phase of the electrical signal. The harnesses move the groups of warp strands to form a shed, and move, on a group-by-group basis, each group of conductive-warp strands to facilitate forming the adapter. The system further includes a picking device to move a weft strand through the shed to form a fabric.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2017Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Kavya K.
