Abstract: A mesh belt used in a process for producing a water absorbing body which is formed by warps and wefts being woven with each other. One or more yarns which constitute(s) the warps or the wefts emerging on at least a transporting surface side of the mesh belt is made of an electrically conductive material.

Abstract: A rectification member 32 is a rectification member that rectifies air that cools molten resin filaments discharged from a nozzle, including: a multi-cylindrical part in which a plurality of cylindrical cells 34a are formed; and a wire net 36 arranged to cover an opening part of the multi-cylindrical part. The wire net 36 has a mesh opening that is smaller than the size of the cylindrical cells 34a.

Abstract: A web support with a high degree of patterning freedom and excellent durability, a production method therefor, and a patterning method. The web support is used when applying a pattern to a nonwoven substance by jetting a high-pressure water stream on a web. The web support production method comprises: a step of preparing a flat metal base material; a step for forming, by etching, a first water conduction hole and second water conduction hole that pass through the front surface of the base material to the back surface, and a recess on the front surface of the base material that includes the first water conduction hole and that corresponds to the pattern; and a step for forming the base material into a cylindrical main body section by welding the edges of the base material to each other.
