Publication number: 20100247895Abstract: An artificial leather comprises a fibrous substrate having laminated on one side thereof an adhesive layer comprising a polyurethane resin formed by a moisture curing reaction of a urethane polyisocyanate prepolymer, a surface layer comprising a polyurethane resin formed by a reaction between a urethane polyol prepolymer and a urethane hardener, and a protective layer comprising a polyurethane resin, in this order. The urethane polyol prepolymer used in the formation of the surface layer is obtained by reacting a polyol containing polyether polyol, and a polyisocyanate, and weight proportion of the polyether polyol is 40% by weight or more based on the total weight of the urethane polyol prepolymer and the urethane hardener. The polyurethane resin constituting the surface layer has 100% modulus value of from 5 to 50 N/cm, and the surface layer has a degree of foaming of from 1.3 to 2.0 times.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2010Publication date: September 30, 2010Inventors: Tomoyuki UEMURA, Shigeru TADOKORO, Yukito KANEKO

Patent number: 7235504Abstract: A three-dimensional knitted fabric having front and back ground structures and an interconnection yarn uniting the ground structures. At least one of the front and back ground structures of the three-dimensional knitted fabric has an uneven pattern with projections and depressions having a great level difference. Ground yarns of the at least one ground structure are traversed by a predetermined traverse width so that the projections each have a curved shape having a distinct curvature in section, and cast off at predetermined intervals so that the depressions each have an opening.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2002Date of Patent: June 26, 2007Assignee: Seiren Co., Ltd.Inventors: Fumio Shirasaki, Kazunori Yamada, Yukito Kaneko

Patent number: 7174750Abstract: It is to provide a three-dimensional warp-knitted fabric in which breathability and cushioning property especially are well suited for a motor vehicle seat in a manner that a feeling of stickiness and steaminess when sweating is eliminated. The three-dimensional warp-knitted fabric comprising front and back ground structures, one of which has a smaller number of loops (1), the other ground structure having a larger number of loops (2); and connecting yarns for connecting these two ground structures (4). One of the ground structures (1) and the other ground structure (2) being knitted with different number of needles, and the number of loops of the ground structure having the smaller number of loops (1) being 30 to 75% that of the other ground structure having the larger number of loops (2). Moreover, the per-area weight of the ground structure having the small number of loops is 60 to 150% of the ground structure having the larger number of loops.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2004Date of Patent: February 13, 2007Assignee: Seiren Co., Ltd.Inventors: Fumio Shirasaki, Yukito Kaneko

Patent number: 6758068Abstract: A three-dimensionally structured warp knitted fabric has a higher compressibility and resiliency than its conventionally available counterpart, as well as enhanced abrasion resistance to prevent fuzzing. The three-dimensionally structured warp knitted fabric includes a top substructure and a bottom substructure, either of which is a net texture, the other being a plain texture. Substructure connecting yarns connect the two substructures. A plurality of connecting yarn controlling yarns are present between the two substructures and between the substructure connecting yarns. The connecting yarn controlling yarns control the substructure connecting yarns by handling, separating and holding them. The connecting yarn controlling yarns include portions which are stitched into the plain texture side of the top or bottom substructure and portions which are floating between the top and bottom substructures.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2001Date of Patent: July 6, 2004Assignee: Seiren Co., Ltd.Inventors: Fumio Shirasaki, Yukito Kaneko, Kazunori Yamada
