Description

20006~3 ~CKGROUND O~ THæ INVENTION
~ he present invention relates to a eoft thermally insulating waterpxoo~in~ and perspiring wadding for cloth articles, in particular sports cloth articles.
As is knwon, there are available on the market cloth article~ which include a suitable wadding at predetermined portions thereof, This inner wadding i~ in particular u~ed for ski cloth articles and in general fbr winter arti-cles in order to provide protection against wind and/
or cold weather, . :
Also known is that commercially available waddings have a comparatively great thickness there- ~ -~
by occupying undesirably a great space, and unde~ira-bly altering in a large degree the aesthetic contour of the user weaxing cloth articles in~cIuding such a ~ .
wadding.
SU~RY O~ ~HE INVE~TION
Accordingly, the aim of the pre~ent inven~
tion i~ to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, by providing a cloth article wadding which has great thermal insulation properties, even i~ade.~w~t~ a~-very .-~
reduced`t~ickness. ~
Within the scope of the above aim~ a main ::
2~

object of t~le p~e~ent invention i~ to provide such a wadding whieh a].~o has waterproofing and per~piring properties.
Another object of the present invention is to provide such a wadding which can be directly used for making sports cloth articles, According to one a~pect of the present in-vention, the above mentioned aim and objects, as well as yet other other objects, which will become more apparent hereinafter, are achieved by a cloth article wadding, characterized in that said wadding e~sential-ly comprises a carded wadding m~terial layer includ-ing thermally insùlating air pockets and delimited, on two faces thereof, by fibre layers treated by suitable resin~, on the face of said wadding to be e~posed to the outside, moreover, there being provided a poly-urethane membrane, optionally coupled to an elasticized fabric, whereas, on the opposite face, there being p~ovided a resilient fabric covering.
~RI~F D~SCRI~ION Q~ ~HE DRAWINGS
~ urther characteristics and advantage~ of the wadding according to the present inVentiQn will become more apparent from the following detailed di~-closure of a preferred embodiment thereof, which iB
illustrated, by way of a merely indicative example, , . -.. ~ . . -- . :
.. .
.,.,., ~ ., .

in the fi~uroe of the acoompanying dr~wings wheres ~ igure 1 is a sohematic view illu~trating a carded wadding layer delimited by re~in proces~ed fibre layers;
~ igure ~ shows that same carded wadding layer with a pol~urethane membrane associated with the top portion thereof; and .....
~ igure 3 is a schematic view illustrAting the carde.d wadding layer having, on the two faces or ~urfaces thereof,an elasticized fabric and a resilient fabric covering respectively, DESCRIP~ION OF ~HE PRE~ERRæD EMBOD~E~ -With reference to the figures of the accom-panying drawings, the wadding for cloth articles ac- ~ -cording to the invention comprises a layer 1 con~ist-ing of a wadding material made, preferably by carding, starting from a lap made of a pol.yester fibre, 9ili-conized pol.yester fibre, poliamide fibre, po~yDle~
fine fibre mixture, the fibres of said mixture having ~:
a given denier. -.;
~his carded wadding layer, moreover, can .
be formed with a plurality of transverse needle pro~
cessed regions ~., and comprises a central portion 3 .
._ .--- - -- -- .. .
including a plurality of air pockets, which are ad-vantageously formed during the calendering process Z000~2~

of said layer In particular, one side or face of ~aid layer is sprayed by acrylic resin emul~ions, vinyl-acrylic resin emulsions, styrene-acrylic resin emul-sions, and so on, having a cro~s-linked structure and adapted to substantially form a strong resilient per-spiring film 4 properly holding said fibres in place.
On the opposite face, the above mentioned layer is processed by film~forming resin emul~ions which, after drying, will provide a resilient per-~piring film 5 having good mechanical properties so a~ to resist against wear, ageing and hydroli~is.
The above mentioned emulsions, in particu- ~-lar, are preferably made of polyurethane resins, ethy-lene-vinylacetate copolymers and so on.
The resin proces~ed 1QP~ moreover, can be sub~ected, under controlled pressure, temperature and rate conditions, to calendering operations adapted to provide, inside the wadding layer, the above men-tiohed air pockets for improving the thermal insula-ting properties of the wadding layer.
On the exposed face o* the thus made wadding layer,-a pol~urethane resilient porous perspiring mem-brane 6 is appliedJ said membrane having wsterproofing and anti-wind characteristics.

L .~:"i .. ' ~: ' t. ~

2~62 . 6 . '. : . ~
The couplin~ or laminating o~ this membrane, in particular, is ~erformed by an ~dhesive ~ilm 7, pxe~erably of polyurethane type, which is spot ap-plied so as to preserve the perspiring and water-proofing properties of the wadding layer.
Such a coupling procedure, moreover, will provide a per~ect binding of the mentioned membrane and pre-exhi~ting film 4 while preserving the resi~
liency, thermal insulation properties o~ the wadding layer.
More speci~ically, for carrying out said laminating operation, polyurethane adhesive~ican be used, as suitably dissolved in a proper solvent ox - -~
water emulsion; these adhesive materials, in parti-cular, will be of the cross-linkable type, in order to improve the washing resistance or dry-washing re~ ;
sistance of the wadding layer.
In this connection, it should be apparent that the disclosed operation can also be per~ormed by a gravure sy~tem or by continous screen printing methods and the like.
The thus coated stxucture, i~ then convey-ed into an oven, thereat the adhesive dissolving phase is evaporated, and the adhesive is cross-link~d.
More speci~ically, the polyurethane membrane 200U6~3 can be coupled lmmed.lately after the application of the adhesive (wet laminatlon) or after the eva-poration of the adhesive dissolving phase (dry lamination), This coupling operation, however, must be carried out before cros~nking the adhesive, which is carried out at temperatures varying from 100 to 150C (depending on the used adhesive and cross-linking substance).
Advantageously, according to a further aspect of the present invention, on the top of the mentioned resilient membrane 6 an elasticized fa-bric 8 can be applied, with the interposition, if desired, of an adhesive layer 9 and, in the inside, a resilient fabric covering 10 can be further ap-plied so as to provide a wadding structure or lay-er having very good characteristics of:
- resiliency, - thermal insulation, _ waterproofing, - wat&r repellency - perspiring, and, more specifically, all of the comfort and opera-ting characteristics which are required for a sports cloth article, in particular a winter sports cloth . ~ ~ .. .. . . . .

. ..: - . }.

c `~
Z~OV623 article, The binding o~ the mentioned membrane, in particular is made by an adhesive like the above mentioned adhesive materials (po]yurethane resinsi dissolved in a solvent or in water, water dispersed acrylic resins and so on) by known means and methods.
In particular, the coupling fabrics will be selected depending on their characteristics and their suitability for the finished product.
Thus, the above mentioned fabrics will com-prise either natural or synthetic fibres, or mixed fibres, processed by suitable hydrophobic material -~;
and with a suitable denier to fit the intended cloth -~
articles.
In this connection, it should be pointed out that if a softer cloth article is required, then the outer fabric can be directily coupled to the base structure, that is without the interposi-tion of the above mentioned adhesive film 9.
While the invention has been disclosed and illustrated with reference to a preferred embodiment thereof, it should be apparent that the disclosed ~-embodiment is susceptible to many modifications and variations all of which will come within the scope and spirit of the appended claims.
