Abstract: A bending resistant part of an endless multilayer fabric for densifying paper materials is placed on a trimming part; to thereby prevent cutting of a fabric at the trimming part. Also oblique movement and dropping off a guide protrusion is prevented. Particularly, a bending resistant part is formed by filling a polyurethane resin in internal structure of an endless fabric of trimming part of the width direction of the fabric woven with arranging at least three layers of weft. A guide protrusion molded from similar polyurethane is arranged on the bending resistant part by fusion. Cutting caused by bending and wearing of the fabric near the guide protrusion is prevented.

Abstract: An extendable and heat shrinkable polyamide monofilament which has an extension of 6% or more to a loading variation in the range of 1.25 g/d-1.75 g/d and a heat shrinkage factor of 7% or more on immersing said monofilament into boiling water. The recited polyamide monofilament is woven into a wear-resistant fabric such as a papermaking fabric.

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.

Abstract: A novel extendable and heat shrinkable polyester monofilament suitable for producing an endless fabric which deforms plastically in the loading range of 0.5 g/d-2.5 g/d and has an extension at the yield point in the range of 1-10%.

Abstract: A weft-water type n-shaft papermakers' fabric has a running side surface and a papermaking side surface, in which n is an integer of at least 6. The fabric has warps and wefts forming the running side surface, the wefts consisting of both short crimp-forming wefts, which cross two or more warps, and long crimp-forming wefts which have a length more than 1.5 times the length of the short crimp. The improvement in crimpiness permits the use of large wefts having a large diameter. The arrangement of the running side surface does not affect the papermaking side surface of a double layer, triple layer or other multilayer weave.

Abstract: A papermakers' double layer type fabric comprises in one repeat a warp layer consisting of n (an integer of at least 7).times.2 of warps, and n (an integer of at least 7).times.2 of wefts arranged on the warp layer as the upper surface wefts and n (an integer of at least 7).times.2 of wefts arranged under the warp layer as the lower surface wefts. The lower surface wefts consist of polyester yarns and polyamide yarns, the lower surface polyamide wefts being each interlaced once in one repeat with a warp and the lower surface polyester wefts being each interlaced once or twice in one repeat with a warp.

Abstract: In a papermaking single-layer broken-twill woven fabric having a running surface formed of long crimps of wefts, auxiliary wefts having a smaller diameter than primary wefts are disposed between primary wefts. The auxiliary wefts are disposed over warps at locations where one of two adjacent warps located between the two wefts intersect by extending from either the paperside or from the running side of the preceding primary weft toward the opposite side of the succeeding primary weft. Every auxiliary weft which is woven into the texture at least once in a repeating unit, thereby forms a flat papermaking surface.

Abstract: In a single-layer papermaking woven fabric or more than three shafts having an extended running surface formed from long crimped primary wefts, auxiliary wefts each having a smaller diameter than that of primary wefts are each disposed between each of primary wefts. Every auxiliary weft is placed on warps at portions extended from the paper side of where warps are primary weft to the running said of the succeeding primary weft or at portions where warps are extended from the running side of a primary weft to the paper side of the succeeding primary weft. Each of said auxiliary wefts is woven into texture of the fabric at least once in a repeating unit by a warp to thereby complete the repeating unit.

Abstract: In a single-layer papermaking woven fabric of more than four 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 once into a repeating unit of a texture by a warp. Each auxiliary weft is placed by 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 papermaking surface of the fabric, whereby wire marks on a paper are reduced.

Abstract: A multi-layer fabric for paper-making comprising at least two fabric layers A and B, each of which is formed by inter-weaving respective warps and wefts. An upper-most layer A is woven as a plain weave 1/1 except at binding points S1, S3 and is adapted to support a paper-web thereon. A lower layer B is positioned below the upper-most layer A, and formed by warps 3 and wefts 4, 4a, each of which have larger diameters than those of the upper-most layer A. The upper-most layer A and the lower-most layer B are bound by means of a part 1a of the warps 1 of the upper-most layer A being interwoven with a part 4a of the wefts 4 of the lower-most layer, or by means of separate binder threads 5 other than the warps or wefts being interwoven with the upper-most layer A and the lower-most layer B. At the binding points, a warp 1a of the upper-most layer which intersects with a weft 4a of the lower-most layer B or with a binder thread 5 is extended under three successive wefts 2a.

Abstract: A stainproof woven fabric for use as a wire in paper making, which comprises a woven fabric made of synthetic resin monofilaments as warp and weft, and a cation-exchangeable synthetic resin film which has metallic ions adsorbed therein and is formed on the monofilaments of the woven fabric; and a method for making the stainproof fabric, which comprises providing a woven fabric made of synthetic monofilaments as warp and weft, thermally setting the woven fabric flat, applying an ingredient or ingredients capable of forming a cation-exchangeable synthetic resin to the thermally set woven fabric, curing the thus applied ingredient or ingredients to form a cation-exchangeable synthetic resin film on the woven fabric and then bringing the resin film-formed woven fabric into contact with an aqueous solution containing metallic ions to have the metallic ions adsorbed in the resin film thereby obtaining the stainproof woven fabric.
