Definitions

  • the invention relates to a thread with a coding according to the preamble of claim 1, a method for producing a coded thread according to the preamble of claim 8, as well as uses of a coded thread.
  • a yarn which contains at least one legible fiber identifiable by a suitable reading sensor which is hidden inside the yarn.
  • This fiber is used to ensure the authenticity of the yarn and product, e.g. of a garment in which the yarn was processed. So with the help of the fiber conclusions can be drawn on the manufacturer of the yarn or the garment.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a thread with a coding that allows the simplest possible identification, processing and testing of the thread, the coded thread should be as easy to produce.
  • the object is achieved in particular in that the surface of the thread is formed as the coding and the coding comprises length information.
  • the fact that the surface of the thread forms the coding a simple method for reading the coding is sufficient.
  • this makes it possible that after the production of the thread, the coding can be applied subsequently in a simple manner.
  • the length information causes the coding to serve not only as information about the thread or about the product in which the thread is processed, the associated manufacturer and the associated batch, but also for detecting changes in the length of the thread during or after its processing z. B. caused by an accident.
  • the thread consumption during the processing of the thread can be determined and controlled and thus the stitch formation with effects, e.g. on seam strength or elongation.
  • the coding may have a marking which extends at predetermined intervals, preferably at intervals of about 5-100 mm, along the Thread repeated.
  • the distances can be chosen so that they are characteristic both for the manufacturer of the thread, for the thread and its batch, as well as for the length of individual sections of the thread.
  • the coding may be configured such that each mark contains information about the manufacturer, the thread and its charge, for example in the form of a bar code, a magnetic code or a two-dimensional dot code, and the distances form a length information with which the thread consumption and the the thread acting forces can be determined.
  • the distances can be used so that portions of the thread that are less damaged and contain a mark, can be used to identify the thread and its batch.
  • it can be determined by determining the distances during processing, whether the thread consumption changes.
  • the forces acting on the thread forces can be determined by determining the distances, for example, before and after a stress with a corresponding change in length without destroying the thread.
  • the surface of the thread may have a sheath which is formed as the coding.
  • the surface of the thread is formed by the sheath.
  • the coding may be provided in or on the sheathing of the thread. This avoids that the thread itself is changed.
  • the sheath may be provided in the form of a film applied to the thread.
  • the sheath may further be at least partially removable, especially with a solvent.
  • the coding in particular with a solvent, can be removable.
  • the uncoded state of the thread is restored, or in the case of a thread with a sheathing on which the coding is applied, the sheathed thread remains after the coding has been removed.
  • the coding can be formed by deformation of the surface of the thread, in particular by plastic deformation.
  • the thread or - in a thread with sheath - its sheath plastically deformable and the coding be obtainable in that the thread z. B. is processed with heated dies in such a way that the outer surface receives a structure containing the desired information.
  • the coding may be formed by an optically readable encoding material on the surface of the thread.
  • the coding can z. B. consist of a printed dye that is visible only under UV irradiation. Thus, the recognizable under normal lighting appearance of the thread is not changed by the coding.
  • the object is also achieved by the features of the independent method claim, and in particular by the fact that the surface of the thread is formed as an encoding, wherein by means of the coding length information is encoded. As explained above, it can be achieved that a simple method for reading the coding is sufficient. In addition, by forming the surface of the thread as the coding allows that after manufacture the thread coding can be applied subsequently in a simple manner.
  • the coding of a length information allows a simple determination of the thread length or the thread supply during the processing of the thread.
  • the thread may be provided with a marking repeated at predetermined intervals, preferably at intervals of about 5-100 mm, along the thread to form the code.
  • the surface of the thread can be deformed, in particular plastically deformed. This can be z. Example be done by the surface of the thread, which consists of plastically deformable material, or a sheath of plastically deformable material by means of stamping is structured such that the desired information is included.
  • an adhesive on the surface of the thread coding material can be applied.
  • an optically readable encoding material can be used.
  • the surface of the thread can be provided with a coding forming the sheath.
  • the coding can be provided in or on the sheath of the thread.
  • a, in particular with a solvent, at least partially removable and preferably water-soluble sheath can be used. Therefore, the thread z. B. after its processing by Removing the sheath be restored to its original state or in its original appearance.
  • a coded thread can be used to identify the thread or a product comprising the thread. If the surface of the thread is formed in a plurality of areas as coding, in case of damage to the thread or an associated garment, the identification of the thread is facilitated because undamaged areas can be used for identification. So each thread has its own identity and the complex registration of batches for tracing in case of complaints is eliminated. The identity of the thread can also be used in the prosecution of product piracy.
  • the surface formed as coding is easily accessible from the outside, which means that the coding is simple, d. H. is readable with a simple reading method. Furthermore, the coding after the manufacture of the thread, i. be provided subsequently.
  • a coded thread can be used to determine and / or control the thread consumption in the thread processing and in particular in the production of seams.
  • An encoding with a length information allows accurate statements about the thread consumption based on a given seam length, but also z. B. in Nähstichtypen with more than one thread statements about the thread ratio of z. B. needle to looper thread. From this it can then be detected by means of appropriate readers during the sewing process, whether the stitch formation is optimal in terms of seam strength and seam elongation. So can be controlled by controlling the thread consumption of the thread supply in the seam and thus the seam behavior.
  • the invention may further comprise a coded thread for the determination of acting on the thread or on a product comprising the thread comprehensive and in particular to thread expansions leading forces are used.
  • the coding contains a length information, by determining the length before and after the sewing, excessive stretching of the thread during the sewing process can be determined. Even after a traffic accident, the length of a section of a z. B. processed in the safety belt coded thread with the original length and from an accidental elongation of the thread and thus the seat belt can be determined. As a result, the effects of force can be determined without physical destruction of the thread and length changes can be assigned to the forces and their possible causes. This can be advantageously used in criminalistics.
  • a thread 2 has a marking 4 on its surface at constant intervals B.
  • the marking 4 consists of a visible only in UV light dye, which is applied in the form of a characteristic of the manufacturer, the thread and its batch bar code 6 on the thread 2.
  • the distances B serve as length information for controlling the thread consumption during the sewing process and for realizing a controlled seam behavior. Since the bar code is greatly reduced selectively provided as so-called micro-coding and also only visible in UV light, the appearance of the thread is virtually unaffected.
  • the bar code 6 is printed with a corresponding plunger after the production of the uncoded thread 2 at the intervals B on the unclaimed and unstretched thread.
  • Conventional production lines for threads can be easily and inexpensively converted by installing a corresponding coding station.
  • the encoded thread is irradiated with UV light by a reading device, the strip code is detected and read by a sensor active in the wavelength range of the UV dye, and the distances B are determined along the thread.
  • the surface of the thread 8 consists of a sheath 10 which encloses the core 12 of the thread 8.
  • the sheath 10 is made of a material soluble in water or other solvent.
  • the sheath 10 is provided at intervals C and D with recesses 14, wherein the different sized distances C and D are characteristic of the manufacturer, the thread and its batch as a code.
  • the recesses 14 are provided only in the sheath 10, so that the core 12 of the thread 8 remains unchanged. This allows for after reading the code information contained the sheath 10 dissolved in water or the solvent and the uncoded core 12 of the thread 8 can be exposed.
  • the manufacture of the thread 8 begins with the production of the core 12, which is a conventional uncoded thread. This is then provided by immersion in a solution of the plasticizable material of the sheath and by evaporation of the solvent with the sheath 10. Furthermore, the sheath 10 may be e.g. be generated by static charging of the thread in the manner of flocking or by vacuum evaporation (anodizing). After the sheath 10 has dried, it is z. B. structured with heated dies by the depressions 14 are imprinted in the distances C and D.
  • a reading device When reading the coding of the second embodiment, a reading device is used, along the thread, the recesses 14 z. B. with a height difference sensor detecting, for example, has a laser registered, and thus determines the distances C and D.
