Abstract: A woven fabric includes warp threads or wires and includes weft wires, wherein, the woven fabric includes an offset weft wire. The offset is particularly suitable for fastening objects separate from the woven fabric. A method uses the woven fabric as a facade hanging by using the woven fabric as a base structure for bearing an object separate from the woven fabric. The object is borne on the offset separate from the woven fabric.

Abstract: This method, for simultaneously weaving on a loom two fabrics (42, 44) provided with piles (424, 444), comprises the steps of weaving an inner layer (FL2, FL4) and an outer layer (BL2, BL4) for each distance fabric, binding the inner and outer layers with connecting warp yarns (401-404) extending between the inner and outer layers, weaving pile warp yarns (501, 502) between the distance fabrics, and cutting the pile yarns. During weaving, the inner and outer layers of each distance fabric are kept apart by respective lancet means (202, 204). Moreover, for each pick (P1-P13) and for each connecting warp yarn (401-404) and each pile warp yarn (501, 502), one selects on the basis of the information relating to the layer (BL2, FL2, BL4, FL4) in which said warp yarn has been interlaced in the previous pick, on the basis of the shedding pattern and amongst several predetermined positions, a position (A1-A8, B1-B12) to be taken by a shedding element (10) driving said warp yarn (401-404, 501, 502) during said pick.

Abstract: The invention relates to a woven fabric comprising warp threads or wires and comprising weft wires, wherein the woven fabric comprises an offset weft wire. The offset is particularly suitable for fastening objects separate from the woven fabric.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for weaving pile fabrics on a face-to-face weaving machine, where, in successive insertion cycles, weft yarns (1-12) are inserted between binding warp yarns (13-16) and pile warp yarns (17-24), so that two backing fabrics (30), (31) are woven one above the another, in which groups of at least four weft yarns (1-6); (7-12) are inserted in respective openings between repeatedly crossing binding warp yarns (13), (14); (15), (16), so that each group of weft yarns (1-6); (7-12) comprises at least two pairs of weft yarns (2,3), (5,6), (8,9), (11,12) inserted above one another, and so that pile warp yarns (18), (21), (24) are interlaced in the upper (30) and in the lower backing fabric (31) alternately round the weft yarns (2), (5), (8), (11), situated on the back, of the said pairs in order to form pile burls, preferably according to a two-shot weave; The present invention likewise relates to pile fabric woven according to this method.

Abstract: A method for weaving a pile fabric on a rapier Axminster weaving machine is provided in which in the course of successive weft insertion cycles alternately one weft thread (1) alone and two weft threads (2), (3) one above the other are inserted between warp threads (4), (5), (6) so that a backing fabric (9) is woven, while pile threads (7) are so introduced that they are interlaced in the backing fabric (9) according to a three-shot weave by weft threads (1) inserted alone, which extend along the pile side of tension warp threads (6). An Axminster pile fabric is woven with pile formation according to a three-shot weave, while one pile row is formed per two weft insertion cycles. Also, an Axminster pile fabric is provided, in which in successive weft lines, alternately one weft thread (1) alone and two weft threads (2), (3) one above the other are inwoven, and, in which pile threads (7) are interlaced by weft threads (1) alone according to a three-shot weave.

Abstract: With a method for face-to-face weaving pile fabrics, whereby weft threads (1-6) are brought between warp threads (7-12) of a series of warp thread systems so that two backing fabrics (21), (22) are woven located one above the other with tension warp threads (7), (10) and dead pile warp threads (13-20) inwoven in the backing fabrics, whereby pile warp threads (13, 14, 18, 20) in each backing fabric form respective pile loops around first (1), (4) and around second weft threads (2), (5) which respectively run along the back and along the pile side of a tension warp thread (7), (10), and whereby the pile-forming pile warp threads (13, 14, 18, 20) are cut through between the backing fabrics, the dead pile warp threads (13-20), running along the pile side of the second weft threads (2), (5), are inwoven.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fabric for the production of clothing from at least two different threads. For the creation of such a fabric, which has on one side substantially the properties determined by one thread and on the other side substantially the properties determined by the other thread or threads and has from each side substantially the visual appearance of a homogeneous fabric, according to the invention the fabric consists of an upper fabric and a lower fabric, the upper fabric being formed exclusively from one thread and the lower fabric exclusively from the other thread or threads, while the upper fabric is connected to the lower fabric by the attachment in places of individual threads of the lower fabric to threads of the side of the upper fabric adjacent the lower fabric, or the upper side of the fabric is formed mainly from one thread and the lower side of the fabric is formed mainly from the other thread or threads.
