Definitions

  • This invention refers to a textile finishing range and to a fabric finishing process.
  • the compressive method is implemented by using a thick rubber belt.
  • fabric shrinking is the removal, or at least the significant reduction, of the tensions which have been gathering in the fabric fibres throughout the yam construction processes, throughout the weaving process and during the finishing cycles.
  • reducing tensions also means changing the dimensions of the fabric, since, if a fabric shrinks, its longitudinal and transversal dimensions become smaller, in other words it becomes shorter and narrower.
  • shrinking or “sanforizing” indicate the compressive method; “compacting” indicates the methods by which the fabric is not mechanically forced to shrink, but in some way put in the condition to do so.
  • the fabric In the compacting method, the fabric is not forcefully obliged to shrink, but it is in some way "invited” to shrink, and, as is always the case in nature, if there is no real compulsion the process will not be fully effected.
  • High shrinkage values can produce optical effects, which are different from those of the original fabric, sometimes giving the impression that the dye colour has partially faded.
  • the compacting process can be implemented by means of dryers provided with a vibrating conveyor belt, or else by means of machines provided with thick felt blankets.
  • GB 2148342 A further device known in the prior art is disclosed in GB 2148342.
  • This document refers to a particular method, obtained in a compressive shrinking machine, and obtained in two stages.
  • belt (16) compresses the fabric against plate (22), which in turn is compressed by element (23).
  • element (23) At the exit, the fabric is taken directly into cylinder (31), it is covered and pressed by felt (32).
  • the patent therefore foresees two compacting passages (fig. 1 and 2 of GB 2148342) or one unique passage (fig. 3 of GB 2148342).
  • This document does not foresee that in one finishing line there the possibility of by-passing one or the other passage. In fact the manner in which the machine is constructed makes it practically impossible to by-pass one of the passages.
  • a further device known in the prior art is disclosed in us 6173507 B1, the device consisting in a first compacting unit, a relax dryer and a double felt unit. This line only allows processing knitted fabric. Furthermore, with this machine it is not possible to process the various types of knits in different passages.
  • the purpose of this invention is therefore to solve the above problems, designing a range made up of a sequence of units that are suitable to obtain a very high shrinkage without compromising the soft hand due to fibre swelling.
  • Another purpose of this invention is to design a range that offers great versatility combined with economic advantages.
  • the claimed invention also includes a process for fabric finishing.
  • the range for fabric finishing is composed of the following main parts and the range is indicated as a whole under number 10.
  • the range 10 is provided with a group composed of a conveyor belt and a moisturising unit 13 and a compressive shrinking unit 14.
  • the range 10 finally includes a compacting unit 15 and an exit by fold 16.
  • Both woven and knitted fabric (which will be collectively called “fabric” to designate both the fabric made with weft and yam and the knitted fabric of any type) can be fed into the range 10 both by roll and by fold.
  • the fabric undergoes the first moistening which can be achieved by any kind of moisturiser, either by means of steam or water, for instance by means of the unit 13.
  • the first possibility envisages that the fabric will transit through the compressive shrinking unit 14 provided with a rubber belt (Sanfor).
  • the second possibility envisages that the fabric will go directly into the compacting unit 15 which is composed of two elements, each of which is made up of a rotating cylinder, heated by means of steam, diathermic oil or electricity, around which a felt belt (18,19) rotates.
  • This felt belt is usually made of nomex or polyester or other material resisting to high temperatures of at least 150°C - 180°C).
  • the third possibility envisages that the fabric will go at first into the compressive shrinking unit 14 provided with a rubber belt (Sanfor), and subsequently, without interruptions, into the compacting unit 15 provided with synthetic belts (18,19) as described above.
  • this invention has given a universal character to a process that previously required two distinct or alternative operations.
  • the main cases that can be considered are the following.
  • the fabric transits through the conveyor belt into the compacting unit 15 equipped with synthetic material belts 18, 19.
  • the fabric must be very well moisturised by means of one or two moisturising cylinders, or by means of a steaming unit, or a water sprayer. Afterwards it is fed into the compressive unit 14 (provided with rubber belt 17) and out of this into the compacting unit 15 equipped with the two synthetic felt belts 18, 19.
  • Another advantage is given by the soft hand due to fibre swelling during the passage in the second unit.
  • this fibre swelling is caused by the evaporation of the fibre residual humidity, thus providing the fabric with softness and a nice look.
  • the inventiveness of the range which is the subject matter of this invention consists of a synthesis of the pre-shrinking process for woven and knitted fabrics.
