  • Patent number: 6955192
    Abstract: In a fabric to assist a vehicle to run in the presence of snow, sand, or mud, or in an unleveled land, a core fabric is formed by weaving the weft and the warp. An upper convexity warp which is disposed over the core fabric forming warp and is woven with an upper convexity weft disposed on the core fabric forming weft, and/or a lower convexity warp which is disposed under the core fabric forming warp and is woven with a lower convexity weft disposed under the core fabric forming weft, to form a convexity. The upper or lower convexity warp is woven with one or plurality of the core fabric forming wefts to form a woven portion.

  • Patent number: 6860299
    Abstract: An industrial multilayer textile has at least an upper surface side layer and a lower surface side layer as a running surface. The upper surface side layer and the lower surface side layer are connected by warp ground yarn connecting yarns that weave the upper surface side layer and the lower surface side layer. Among these, a pair of warp ground yarn connecting yarns is made into yarns corresponding to one warp in an upper surface side surface, and the pair of warp ground yarn connecting yarns and another warp are alternately disposed and woven with upper surface side wefts to form a surface of a substantially plain weave texture on the upper surface side layer.

  • Patent number: 6851457
    Abstract: An industrial multilayer fabric has at least an upper surface side layer and running surface side layer. The upper surface side layer and running surface side layer are connected by a ground yarn knotting yarn which forms a portion of the surface of the upper surface side layer. An upper surface side warp which appears on the surface of the upper surface side layer passes over two continuous upper surface side wefts and the ground yarn knotting yarn, and then passes under three continuous upper surface side wefts.

  • Patent number: 5840378
    Abstract: An endless woven fabric for condensing paper material and a method for forming such an endless fabric which removes ink and other extraneous substances from the aqueous solution of reclaimed paper material. On the endless fabric formed by weaving plastic monofilaments, an antiflexing part, 30-50 mm in width, is provided on at least one end of the selvage in the direction of width by causing thermoplastic resin to fill not less than 85% of an empty space in the endless woven fabric. Further, a guide ridge of thermoplastic resin is formed by causing thermoplastic resin to fill an empty space in the end parts on the running surface of the endless fabric, and is welded with the antiflexing part integrally. Platelike reinforcing strips are formed in a length nearly equal to the width of the endless fabric. The strips are extended between the opposite ends of the endless fabric by causing thermoplastic resin of the strips to fill not less than 85% of an empty space in the endless fabric.

  • Patent number: 5829489
    Abstract: A two-layer woven fabric for paper-making where a paper-making side woven fabric and a running side woven fabric are combined together by pairs of auxiliary wefts which are placed adjacent to each of wefts of both fabrics. When one of a pair of the auxiliary wefts is placed over a paper-making side warp filling a concave portion formed by the warp, the other auxiliary weft is placed under a running side warp thereby connecting both the paper-making side and the running side fabrics together.

  • Patent number: 5487414
    Abstract: A fabric for use in paper machines which forms a repeating design unit with fourteen yarns or more for each of warps, upper wefts and lower wefts is shown. The fabric starts the repeating design unit from a point of the lower weft being interwoven with the warp, wherein the lower wefts are interwoven with the warp once or twice, adjacent two upper wefts are interwoven with the warp twice, the numbers of wefts disposed between positions of the warp interweaving the lower weft and the adjacent two upper wefts are equal to each other, and the warp travels between the upper and lower wefts in a substantially linear manner between two positions of the adjacent two upper wefts being interwoven with the warp.

  • Patent number: 5158118
    Abstract: In a single-layer paper making woven fabric of more than five shafts, auxiliary wefts each having a smaller diameter than that of the primary wefts are disposed between each of the primary wefts. Each of the auxiliary wefts is woven twice into a repeating unit of a texture by a warp. Each auxiliary weft is placed over at least two other warps extending above two adjacent primary wefts. The auxiliary wefts are pushed or urged upwardly thereof by these at least two other warps in order to form a flat paper making surface of the fabric, whereby wire marks on a paper are reduced.
