Abstract: Between one course and the other course adjacent to each other, an amount of elastic yarns for the other course is set smaller than that for the one course so that the elastic yarn knitted into the other course is stretched by a resilience of the elastic yarn knitted into the one course contracting from a stretched state when being knitted. When making a power-enhanced knit fabric, elastic yarns are knitted under tension, so as to generate a difference in amounts of stretch of the elastic yarns during knitting, thereby producing a difference between repulsive forces of the elastic yarns for each pair of adjacent courses.

Abstract: A warp knitted fabric having the isotropy of strength. The warp knitted fabric is provided with a fabric weave and insertion yarn groups (14, 16). The insertion yarn group (14) comprises four yarns (Y4a-Y4d) of the same type. The insertion yarn group (16) comprises four yarns (Y5a-Y5d) of the same type. The yarns (Y4a-Y4d, Y5a-Y5d) are inserted into a warp-knitted fabric weave in the warp direction while being arranged parallel to each other at an interval of one wale in the weft direction. Each of the yarns (Y4a-Y4d, Y5a-Y5d) comprises a portion (14a) extending as a whole in the direction crossing the warp direction, a portion (14b) extending as a whole in the direction crossing the warp direction, and a portion (14c) extending as a whole in the direction extending along the warp direction and connecting the portions (14a, 14b) to each other. One of the yarns (Y4a-Y4d) is overlapped with a corresponding one of the yarns (Y5a-Y5d) when viewed from the thickness direction.

Abstract: A conductor for use in a flat cable includes thereon a tin of tin alloy plating the thickness of which is substantially uniform over the whole periphery of a flat conductor, in order to provide a conductor for use in a flat cable which can minimize variations in the plating thickness thereof, provide a good contact reliability with respect to a connector when it is used in a flat cable, and causes no increase in the contact resistance thereof in a humidity withstand test after it is inserted into and removed from the connector.

Abstract: A laminated flat cable uses a flat conductor which is treated substantially uniformly with an anticorrosion plating having a given thickness over the whole periphery thereof to provide a laminated flat cable which can provide a stable contact reliability with respect to a connector and a stable voltage withstand between conductors in a long period of use in which the cable is repeatedly inserted into and removed from the connector.
