Abstract: A knitted fabric for hook-and-loop fastener comprising of tricot stitch for the knitted fabric for hook-and-loop fastener; and the tricot stitch is formed of surface threads, middle threads and backside threads; and each surface threads, middle threads and backside threads has loops at regular intervals, and loops of surface threads are linked to loops of middle threads, and loops of middle threads are linked to loops of backside threads. Furthermore, the piles of surface threads are formed from side to side on the same numbers, and thread direction of a certain loop of surface threads is opposite to thread direction of a corresponding loop of middle threads, and the thread direction of loop of middle threads is opposite to thread direction of a corresponding loop of backside threads.

Abstract: [Subject] The subject of this invention is to offer an inexpensive tricot stitch, whose adhesive strength with engagement materials increases, whose adhesive strength is the same in case that we adhere engagement materials to it from right side or left side, whose tear strength is very high. [Solution] A knitted fabric for hook-and-loop fastener comprising of tricot stitch for the knitted fabric for hook-and-loop fastener; and the tricot stitch is formed of surface threads, middle threads and backside threads; and each surface threads, middle threads and backside threads has loops at regular intervals, and loops of surface threads are linked to loops of middle threads, and loops of middle threads are linked to loops of backside threads.

Abstract: A ceiling member for vehicles according to the present invention includes a base material layer, and a surface skin material layer laminated on the base material layer. The surface skin material layer is a fabric made of a woven fabric or a knitted fabric, the fabric having a raised portion formed by raising a rear surface thereof, and the raised portion is directly bonded to the base material layer. Thus, a ceiling member for vehicles light in weight and enhanced in recycling efficiency can be provided while eliminating a bonding step using urethane.
