Publication number: 20040092188Abstract: A clothing material structure of fiber cloth containing PAN series activated carbon includes an air-permeable textile as a support layer and fiber cloth containing PAN series activated carbon as an adsorption layer. The support layer and the adsorption layer are bonded together to form the clothing material suitable for the hunter clothing and the protective clothing by way of bonding or needle punching. Accordingly, when the wearer's body heat and body odor try to pass through the clothing made from the material, the body heat may smoothly pass through the adsorption layer while the body odor is blocked and filtered out by the activated carbon fiber. Thus, the requirements of hunter clothing may be satisfied. Furthermore, the odors or toxins trying to pass through the adsorption layer may be filtered out, and the requirements of the chemically protective clothing and hunter clothing may be satisfied.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 8, 2002Publication date: May 13, 2004Inventor: Shih-Ju Hsieh

Publication number: 20020102895Abstract: A fabric for use in outdoor apparel is disclosed comprising an insulating layer including a multitude of cross fibers disposed between exterior fabric layers, the combination of which creates a temperature regulating material suitable for maintaining a comfortable body temperature in environments where the ambient temperature is low. The fabric is created using a double needle bar knitting technique which allows several fiber choices to be incorporated into a single fabric sample and infuses the enclosed, insulating layer with a multitude of air spaces helpful in the insulating process. In addition to air spaces, the invention uses phase change technology in the insulating layer to regulate and stabilize the temperature of the air spaces that exist between the cross fibers, thus producing a thermal regulation effect greater than would be possible if either technology were used alone.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 26, 2001Publication date: August 1, 2002Inventor: William F. Willard
