Patent number: 7255761Abstract: Disclosed herein is a composite comprising at least one heat shrinkable adhesive layer stitch-bonded with yarns, which shrink less than the adhesive layer or do not shrink, when the adhesive layer is exposed to heat. The stitch-bonded yarns form loops upstanding from the shrunk adhesive layer and the loops create a textured surface on the composite, and the composite is substantially inelastic after the adhesive layer is shrunk. The composite may further comprise at least one fibrous layer stitch-bonded to the shrinkable adhesive layer, and the fibrous layer is less shrinkable than the adhesive layer or is substantially non-shrinkable.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2005Date of Patent: August 14, 2007Assignee: DZS, LLCInventor: Dimitri Peter Zafiroglu

Patent number: 6649000Abstract: An emblem for embroidery stitching directly to a substrate is disclosed which provides an emblem which can be readily embroidered. The emblem includes a fabric layer with a thermoplastic adhesive coating one side of the fabric layer and a pressure sensitive adhesive coating the thermoplastic adhesive to provide an emblem which can temporarily adhere to a substrate. The emblem can thus be temporarily secured during embroidery and prevent distortion of the emblem. Following embroidery, the emblem is heat-sealed to a substrate and the thermoplastic adhesive coating penetrates through the pressure sensitive adhesive for attachment of the emblem to the substrate.Type: GrantFiled: July 25, 2000Date of Patent: November 18, 2003Assignee: Stahls' Inc.Inventor: Ted A.

Patent number: 6423165Abstract: A method for forming convexities and/or concavities on cloths for a garment at almost entire portions of the garment or any desired portion of the garment without any substantial limitation from a design point of view. The method for forming a garment having convexities and/or concavities which can expand and contract in both the weft and wrap directions like a knitted fabric. Cloths including thermoplastic fiber are cut into parts of the garment, the parts are sewn in a shape of the garment. The garment is overlaid on a thermo-shrinkable cloth. They are sewn together with stitches of water-soluble threads. The sewn cloths are heated under dry heat and without applying any pressure to the cloths so as to permit the thermo-shrinkable cloth to shrink and form convexities and/or concavities on the cloths of the garment. The water-soluble threads are solved and removed, and the cloths of the garment are separated from the thermo-shrinkable cloth.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 1999Date of Patent: July 23, 2002Inventor: Yoshiki Hishinuma

Patent number: 6321672Abstract: A three dimensional embroidered pattern is sewn into a fabric using polyester monochromatic thread that is selected to take up a dye applied thereto. After the pattern is sewn into the fabric, a pattern comprised of sublimatable dyes is applied to a sheet substrate. The sheet substrate bearing the dye pattern is registered to contact the embroidered pattern and heated under pressure. The dyes comprising the pattern on the sheet substrate sublime and condense in the thread comprising the embroidered pattern adjacent thereto. When the sheet substrate is separated from the embroidery, a three dimensional colored pattern remains on the embroidery thread comprising the pattern. The visual appearance of the polychromatic pattern obtained when the dyes on the sheet substrate sublime and condense on the embroidered fabric is different than the pattern achieved when using variously colored threads to embroider the pattern on the fabric.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2001Date of Patent: November 27, 2001Inventor: James Edward Dudek, II

Patent number: 6263817Abstract: The present invention provides an embroidery auxiliary member that is superimposed on a base fabric, embroidered together with the base fabric by embroidery yarn, and thereafter removed. The embroidery auxiliary member is made of a tetrachloroethylene soluble material and includes a spacer and a support sheet. The spacer is utilized for forming a hollow three-dimensional embroidery pattern using embroidery yarn and has a predetermined thickness. The support sheet is utilized for supporting the base fabric during an embroidering operation. A method of embroidering by using the spacer comprises the steps of placing the spacer on the base fabric, sewing the base fabric through the spacer using the embroidering yarn, and dissolving the spacer with tetrachloroethylene.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 1999Date of Patent: July 24, 2001Assignee: Tokai Kogyo Mishin Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Ikuo Tajima, Shunzo Nanba
