  • Patent number: 11891732
    Abstract: The invention disclosed a textile with elasticity. The textile with elasticity includes a plurality of elastic weft units and a plurality of elastic warp yarns of a warp yarn layer. These weft units include a plurality of weft yarns. The warp yarn layer penetrates through gaps formed by the weft units. The warp yarns and the weft yarns all have elasticity. The warp yarn has a twines, wherein each of the twines ties the warp yarn for binding these warp yarns located at the gap. Therefore, the textile with elasticity has good stretching ability and air permeability, and provides comfortable wearing feel by means of yarns wrapped on the weft yarns.

  • Publication number: 20150359297
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a braid tip includes a first weaving step, a second weaving step and a heat cutting step. In the first weaving step, a plurality of yarns are woven in a loose manner so as to form a braid body. in the second weaving step, the yarns are woven in a tight manner so as to form a dense braid part connected to the braid body, wherein a cross-sectional area of the dense braid part is smaller than a cross-sectional area of the braid body, and the braid body and the dense braid part are integrally connected. In the heat cutting step, the dense braid part is heat cut so as to form the braid tip, wherein the yarns are fixed in a heat cutting end of the braid tip.
