Definitions
- the present invention relates to a reinforced fabric. It may in particular be a fabric used in an individual protective clothing, especially a thermal protection fabric for the production of clothing used by firefighters, or a fabric used in the case of risk environments, for mechanical, chemical, electrical arc protection, in the case of an explosive atmosphere.
- PPE personal protective equipment
- fireproof textiles for firefighters are found for which thermal performance (resistance to radiant and convective heat, thermal stability, flammability test, etc.) is measured, as well as mechanical performance. antistatic, water-repellent ...
- thermal performance resistance to radiant and convective heat, thermal stability, flammability test, etc.
- mechanical performance antistatic, water-repellent
- protective clothing used for welding operations that must have characteristics of non-flammability, primed tear resistance and resistance to small projections of molten metals.
- mechanical performance tensile and tear strength
- thermal performance or mechanical and chemical performance, or mechanical and antistatic.
- Personal protective equipment textiles currently on the market use different types of raw materials ranging from flame-retardant treated cottons to aramids and other latest-generation fibers or filaments.
- the choice of the raw material determines the type of protection of the finished textile, its level of performance, its maintenance method, its price level and its lifetime.
- One of the means for improving the lacerations of a fabric is to use a weave known as RIP STOP, which consists of regularly doubling a warp and weft a thread, so as to block the propagation of the tear.
- RIP STOP a weave known as RIP STOP
- Such armor makes it possible to increase by 30% the values of initiated rips.
- the disadvantage of using such armor is the fact of obtaining a fabric with a certain relief on the front face which causes premature wear of these lined yarns and therefore less abrasion resistance than in the case of a smoother weave like a canvas or a twill.
- a RIP STOP armor always gives a more pronounced appearance that can be harmful to use, unlike armor smoother as sergeants.
- One of the ways to increase the mechanical strength of a fabric is to use a "core wire” technology wire or equivalent where the mechanically strongest raw material is placed in the core of the wire and is covered by one or more other less mechanically resistant raw materials but which provide the coloristic, antistatic properties of the final thread as well as the effective protection of this core with respect to UV, abrasion and aggressions related to the maintenance of clothing.
- fabrics made with this type of yarn use a medium fineness yarn - Nm 45/2 - compared to fabrics made of Nomex Delta TA ® (intimate blend of meta and para aramid) made with a finer yarn - nm 55/2 - which allow to obtain, equivalent weight of fabric, more effective heat shield, since the surface of the Nomex Delta TA ® is more closed.
- a fabric made from a yarn technology intimate mixture as Nomex Delta TA ® (75% meta-aramid, 23% para-aramid, 2% antistatic) has lower mechanical performance as core spun mentioned above.
- Another way to improve the mechanical performance of a textile is to insert a wire with high mechanical performance regularly in one and / or the other direction of the textile, without changing the construction of the textile.
- a wire with high mechanical performance regularly in one and / or the other direction of the textile, without changing the construction of the textile.
- this thread may have the disadvantage of bleaching with use and with successive washings, giving a surface appearance of the aged, non-uniform and whitish textile.
- a conductive or antistatic material intimately mixed with the other materials constituting the textile; this mixture may be uniform in low proportion throughout the textile or more regularly concentrated on some son of both directions. In both cases, depending on the antistatic material used, it appears more or less on the surface of the textile giving a mottled appearance or a more or less marked grid or scratch effect which may be a disadvantage especially in the case of colors. clear. Only a core wire technology with an antistatic core and a cover in another material allows for a uniform textile in colors; the disadvantage, as stated above, is the high cost of such a wire.
- the object of the invention is to propose a textile for which we have improved, combined and added certain performances, with a view to to optimize its aptitude for a technical use and this, without aesthetically changing one of its faces, while maintaining its textile properties.
- the thermal protection fabric that it concerns comprising, on its front face, armor of warp threads in a direction and weft threads in the perpendicular direction or mesh-type armor, is characterized in that it comprises, on its rear face, a reinforcing grid made up of warp and weft threads made of a material having different properties, such as higher mechanical properties than those producing the threads of the front face, the reinforcing grid being linked to the front face by its warp and weft son, the warp and weft threads being fixed on the front face at different points and crossing to the outside of the bottom fabric forming the front face .
- the reinforcing threads belonging to the reinforcing grid are punctually bonded to the front face, and intersect by creating super-thicknesses that trap a layer of air participating in better thermal insulation of the fabric. This is particularly important when the fabric is used for making a garment for firefighters, the various materials used being then made of non-fire and non-fuse materials.
- the reinforcing grid is bonded to the base fabric during the manufacture thereof.
- the reinforcing grid is formed by a cross-type of canvas reinforcement son arranged in warp and weft.
- the different threads in the two directions are combined so as to form a complex weave of the canvas, twill or satin type, such that the front or outer face of the fabric is composed essentially of the bottom threads and the inner face of the reinforcing threads.
- cross threads for example twill, give a surface appearance similar in every way to a standard twill fabric (weight and identical construction) that would not have this grid. Thus, the characteristics of the appearance of the outer surface will be retained.
- This construction makes it possible to obtain a good resistance to abrasion of the outer face, an excellent preservation of the appearance after washing, a better printability due to the good fastness to friction compared to a rip stop armor.
- the reinforcing son may, for example, be made of a material having mechanical performance superior to that of the material of the ground wire.
- An interesting construction aims to bind the reinforcing son in the bottom twill regularly, so as to provide a considerable improvement in breaking strengths and initiated tears, the dimensional stability of the fabric, and also to increase its resistance to breakage open (opening the fabric after prolonged exposure to a flame) or flash caused by an electric arc.
- This type of construction therefore makes it possible to produce fabrics that are much more resistant to identical weights. It is also possible to build textiles of lighter weight and therefore more comfortable for mechanical characteristics equivalent to a structure without reinforcement grid.
- the reinforcing threads are not bound in the bottom, they form small warp and weft floats that intersect perpendicularly creating over-thickness at each cross, these over-thicknesses participating in the thermal insulation of the tissue.
- this grid effect makes it possible to increase the thickness of the fabric, a thickness all the more important that the floats of the reinforcing threads cross perpendicularly on the rear face forming a multitude of small crosses or small points which constantly maintain a layer of air in this network.
- the reinforcing grid also makes it possible to provide additional performance to the fabric such as antistaticity or conductivity.
- additional performance such as antistaticity or conductivity.
- the advantage of placing conductive wires in the rear face makes it possible to maintain a uniform surface appearance in color while providing electrical properties.
- the reinforcing son form on the rear face floats of about 2 millimeters which intersect perpendicularly forming a small raised point directed towards the rear of the fabric. This increase in thickness of the fabric makes it possible to obtain improved thermal results compared to a closed fabric of identical weight without a grid.
- This reinforcing grid also makes it possible to increase very significantly the tensile strengths and the tearing of the fabric.
- the values obtained were compared with those of a fabric 100% Nomex Delta C ® of identical weight and construction but without reinforcement grid, and a gain of at least 40% was measured for the tensile strengths and at least 150% for primed tears.
- this article has been tested up to 25 wash cycles and tumbler drying to verify appearance retention; the result is extremely satisfactory since no fibrillation and no whitish appearance of the surface have been observed.
- Figure 1 is a view of a piece of cloth seen from the inside that is to say the side of the reinforcing grid;
- Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view, perpendicular to the weft son, along the line II-II of Figure 1.
- the drawing shows a fabric having warp armor in a direction and a weave of weft yarns in the perpendicular direction.
- the warp threads are designated by the reference 2 and the weft threads by the reference 3.
- This fabric comprises on its rear face a reinforcing grid composed of warp threads 4 and weft threads 5.
- the warp yarns and the weft yarns are bonded on the front face of the fabric at different points and intersect at points 6 outside the bottom fabric forming the front face. It is apparent from Figure 2 that in some locations, there are 4 layers of son superposed, forming a multitude of small points that define a network maintaining an air layer promoting thermal insulation provided by the fabric.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un tissu renforcé. Il peut notamment s'agir d'un tissu utilisé dans un vêtement de protection individuelle, spécialement un tissu de protection thermique pour la réalisation de vêtements utilisés par les sapeurs-pompiers, ou encore un tissu utilisé dans le cas d'environnements à risque, pour une protection mécanique, chimique, contre un arc électrique, dans le cas d'une ambiance explosive.The present invention relates to a reinforced fabric. It may in particular be a fabric used in an individual protective clothing, especially a thermal protection fabric for the production of clothing used by firefighters, or a fabric used in the case of risk environments, for mechanical, chemical, electrical arc protection, in the case of an explosive atmosphere.
Dans le domaine des Equipements de Protection Individuelle (EPI), différents types de textiles sont mis en oeuvre pour répondre aux exigences des normes en vigueur et assurer ainsi la protection nécessaire et suffisante à chacun des porteurs de vêtements.In the field of personal protective equipment (PPE), different types of textiles are implemented to meet the requirements of the standards in force and thus ensure the necessary and sufficient protection for each of the wearers of clothing.
A titre d'exemple, on trouve ainsi des textiles ignifuges pour les sapeurs-pompiers pour lesquels sont mesurées des performances thermiques (résistance à la chaleur radiante et convective, stabilité thermique, test d'inflammabilité...) mais aussi des performances mécaniques, antistatiques, hydrofuges... Il existe également d'autres types de textiles non feu pour les travailleurs de l'industrie exposés à la chaleur où les exigences de performance concernent principalement la résistance à la propagation de flamme limitée et les résistances aux chaleurs convective et radiante. De même, il existe des vêtements de protection utilisés pour les opérations de soudage qui doivent présenter des caractéristiques de non inflammabilité, de résistance à la déchirure amorcée et de résistance aux petites projections de métaux en fusion.
Les exemples présentés ci-dessus montrent qu'il y a très souvent combinaison de plusieurs caractéristiques pour qu'un textile soit conforme. Sont généralement associées des performances mécaniques (résistance à la traction et à la déchirure) et des performances thermiques, ou bien des performances mécaniques et chimiques, ou encore mécaniques et antistatiques.For example, fireproof textiles for firefighters are found for which thermal performance (resistance to radiant and convective heat, thermal stability, flammability test, etc.) is measured, as well as mechanical performance. antistatic, water-repellent ... There are also other types of fire-resistant textiles for heat-exposed industrial workers where the performance requirements relate mainly to resistance to limited flame spread and resistance to convective heat and radiant. Similarly, there is protective clothing used for welding operations that must have characteristics of non-flammability, primed tear resistance and resistance to small projections of molten metals.
The examples presented above show that there is very often a combination of several characteristics for a textile to conform. Generally associated with mechanical performance (tensile and tear strength) and thermal performance, or mechanical and chemical performance, or mechanical and antistatic.
Les textiles pour équipement de protection individuelle actuellement sur le marché utilisent différents types de matières premières allant des cotons traités ignifuges aux aramides et autres fibres ou filaments non feu de dernière génération. Le choix de la matière première détermine le type de protection du textile fini, son niveau de performance, son mode d'entretien, son niveau de prix et sa durée de vie.Personal protective equipment textiles currently on the market use different types of raw materials ranging from flame-retardant treated cottons to aramids and other latest-generation fibers or filaments. The choice of the raw material determines the type of protection of the finished textile, its level of performance, its maintenance method, its price level and its lifetime.
En effet, plus le choix se porte vers une matière haut de gamme possédant des performances élevées, plus le tissu offre une bonne protection et une plus grande durabilité, mais avec à un prix élevé. A contrario, un textile réalisé dans une matière ignifuge plus bas de gamme a des performances et une longévité à l'utilisation moindres mais sera à un niveau de prix plus attractif. Le but étant toujours d'obtenir le tissu ayant les meilleures performances et le meilleur confort pour un prix intéressant, on cherche ainsi à avoir des textiles à la fois performants, résistants, légers et confortables.Indeed, the more the choice is for a high-end material having high performance, the more the fabric offers good protection and greater durability, but with a high price. On the other hand, a textile made of a lower-grade flame retardant material has lower performance and longevity, but will be at a more attractive price point. The goal is always to obtain the fabric with the best performance and the best comfort for a good price, one thus seeks to have textiles at the same time powerful, resistant, light and comfortable.
Un des moyens pour améliorer les déchirures amorcées d'un tissu est d'utiliser une armure connue sous la dénomination RIP STOP, qui consiste à doubler régulièrement en chaîne et en trame un fil, de manière à bloquer la propagation de la déchirure. Une telle armure permet d'augmenter de 30% les valeurs de déchirures amorcées. L'inconvénient de l'utilisation d'une telle armure est le fait d'obtenir un tissu avec un certain relief sur la face avant qui entraîne une usure prématurée de ces fils doublés et donc une moins bonne résistance à l'abrasion que dans le cas d'une armure plus lisse comme une toile ou un sergé.One of the means for improving the lacerations of a fabric is to use a weave known as RIP STOP, which consists of regularly doubling a warp and weft a thread, so as to block the propagation of the tear. Such armor makes it possible to increase by 30% the values of initiated rips. The disadvantage of using such armor is the fact of obtaining a fabric with a certain relief on the front face which causes premature wear of these lined yarns and therefore less abrasion resistance than in the case of a smoother weave like a canvas or a twill.
Pour cette raison, il est déconseillé d'utiliser ce type d'armure sur un tissu destiné à être imprimé (type camouflage de l'armée) puisque les solidités aux frottements secs et humides seraient dégradées du fait de ce relief où l'abrasion est prépondérante.For this reason, it is inadvisable to use this type of armor on a fabric intended to be printed (camouflage type of the army) since the solidities to dry and wet rubbing would be degraded because of this relief where the abrasion is casting.
De plus, une armure RIP STOP donne toujours un aspect plus marqué qui peut être dommageable à l'utilisation, contrairement aux armures plus lisses comme les sergés.In addition, a RIP STOP armor always gives a more pronounced appearance that can be harmful to use, unlike armor smoother as sergeants.
Un des moyens d'augmenter les résistances mécaniques d'un tissu est d'utiliser un fil de technologie « fil à âme » ou équivalent où la matière première la plus résistante mécaniquement est placée en âme du fil et est couverte par une ou plusieurs autres matières premières moins résistantes mécaniquement mais qui apportent les propriétés coloristiques, antistatique du fil final ainsi que la protection efficace de cette âme vis à vis des UV, de l'abrasion et des agressions liées à l'entretien des vêtements.One of the ways to increase the mechanical strength of a fabric is to use a "core wire" technology wire or equivalent where the mechanically strongest raw material is placed in the core of the wire and is covered by one or more other less mechanically resistant raw materials but which provide the coloristic, antistatic properties of the final thread as well as the effective protection of this core with respect to UV, abrasion and aggressions related to the maintenance of clothing.
Les inconvénients de ces techniques de filature sont les suivants : il s'agit bien souvent d'une technologie onéreuse et limitée en finesse de fil qui entraîne un clos du textile moins important. C'est le cas par exemple du core spun Kermel® HTA®, où la Technora® (para aramide de haute performance mécanique) est placée en âme pour apporter la résistance du fil et où le Kermel® (polyamide imide) est placé en couverture pour donner la couleur finale du produit ainsi que la protection de l'âme. Ainsi, les tissus réalisés avec ce type de fil utilisent un fil de finesse moyenne - titre Nm 45/2 - comparativement aux tissus réalisés en Nomex Delta TA® (mélange intime de méta et para aramide) construits avec un fil de finesse plus importante - Nm 55/2 - qui permettent d'obtenir, à poids équivalent de tissu, un écran thermique plus efficace puisque la surface du tissu Nomex Delta TA® est plus fermée. En revanche, un tissu constitué à partir d'un fil de technologie mélange intime comme le Nomex Delta TA® (75% méta aramide, 23% para aramide, 2% antistatique) a des performances mécaniques plus faibles que le core spun précédemment cité.The disadvantages of these spinning techniques are the following: it is often an expensive technology and limited in fineness of wire which leads to a less important textile clos. It's the case for example the Kermel ® HTA ® spun core, where the Technora ® (high performance para aramid mechanics) is placed in the core to provide the strength of the yarn and where the Kermel ® (polyamide imide) is placed on the cover to give the final color of the product as well as the protection of the soul. Thus, fabrics made with this type of yarn use a medium fineness yarn - Nm 45/2 - compared to fabrics made of Nomex Delta TA ® (intimate blend of meta and para aramid) made with a finer yarn - nm 55/2 - which allow to obtain, equivalent weight of fabric, more effective heat shield, since the surface of the Nomex Delta TA ® is more closed. In contrast, a fabric made from a yarn technology intimate mixture as Nomex Delta TA ® (75% meta-aramid, 23% para-aramid, 2% antistatic) has lower mechanical performance as core spun mentioned above.
Un autre moyen d'améliorer les performances mécaniques d'un textile est d'insérer un fil à hautes performances mécaniques régulièrement dans l'une et/ou l'autre direction du textile, sans modifier la construction du textile. On obtient ainsi des tissus plus résistants mécaniquement puisque le nouveau fil inséré contient bien souvent un fort pourcentage de para aramide ; cependant, ce fil peut avoir l'inconvénient de blanchir à l'usage et avec les lavages successifs, donnant un aspect de surface du textile vieilli, non uniforme et blanchâtre.Another way to improve the mechanical performance of a textile is to insert a wire with high mechanical performance regularly in one and / or the other direction of the textile, without changing the construction of the textile. Thus, more mechanically strong fabrics are obtained since the new wire inserted often contains a high percentage of para-aramid; however, this thread may have the disadvantage of bleaching with use and with successive washings, giving a surface appearance of the aged, non-uniform and whitish textile.
Pour obtenir un textile ayant des propriétés antistatiques, il est connu d'utiliser un matériau conducteur ou antistatique en mélange intime avec les autres matériaux constitutifs du textile ; ce mélange peut être uniforme en faible proportion dans tout le textile ou bien plus concentré régulièrement sur certains fils des deux directions. Dans les deux cas, suivant le matériau antistatique utilisé, celui-ci apparaît plus ou moins à la surface du textile donnant un aspect chiné ou un effet de grille ou de rayure plus ou moins marqué qui peut être un inconvénient surtout dans le cas des coloris clairs. Seule une technologie de fil à âme avec une âme antistatique et une couverture dans un autre matériau permet de faire un textile uniforme en coloris ; l'inconvénient, comme énoncé précédemment, est le coût élevé d'un tel fil.To obtain a textile having antistatic properties, it is known to use a conductive or antistatic material intimately mixed with the other materials constituting the textile; this mixture may be uniform in low proportion throughout the textile or more regularly concentrated on some son of both directions. In both cases, depending on the antistatic material used, it appears more or less on the surface of the textile giving a mottled appearance or a more or less marked grid or scratch effect which may be a disadvantage especially in the case of colors. clear. Only a core wire technology with an antistatic core and a cover in another material allows for a uniform textile in colors; the disadvantage, as stated above, is the high cost of such a wire.
On connaît du document US 2180770A un tissu renforcé comprenant sur sa face arrière une grille de renfort composée de fils de chaîne et de fils de trame, réalisés dans une matière possédant des propriétés mécanique plus élevées que celles réalisant les fils de la face avant.From US 2180770A is known a reinforced fabric comprising on its rear face a reinforcing grid made of warp son and weft son, made of a material having higher mechanical properties than those making the son of the front face.
Le but de l'invention est de proposer un textile pour lequel on aura amélioré, combiné et ajouté certaines performances, en vue d'optimiser son aptitude à une utilisation technique et ce, sans changer esthétiquement une de ses faces, tout en conservant ses propriétés textiles.The object of the invention is to propose a textile for which we have improved, combined and added certain performances, with a view to to optimize its aptitude for a technical use and this, without aesthetically changing one of its faces, while maintaining its textile properties.
A cet effet, le tissu de protection thermique qu'elle concerne, comportant, sur sa face avant une armure de fils de chaîne dans une direction et de fils de trame dans la direction perpendiculaire ou une armure de type maille, est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend, sur sa face arrière, une grille de renfort composée de fils de chaîne et de fils de trame réalisés dans une matière possédant des propriétés différentes, telles que des propriétés mécaniques plus élevées que celles réalisant les fils de la face avant, la grille de renfort étant liée à la face avant par ses fils de chaîne et de trame, les fils de chaîne et de trame étant fixés sur la face avant en des points différents et se croisant à l'extérieur du tissu de fond formant la face avant.For this purpose, the thermal protection fabric that it concerns, comprising, on its front face, armor of warp threads in a direction and weft threads in the perpendicular direction or mesh-type armor, is characterized in that it comprises, on its rear face, a reinforcing grid made up of warp and weft threads made of a material having different properties, such as higher mechanical properties than those producing the threads of the front face, the reinforcing grid being linked to the front face by its warp and weft son, the warp and weft threads being fixed on the front face at different points and crossing to the outside of the bottom fabric forming the front face .
Les fils de renfort appartenant à la grille de renfort, sont liés ponctuellement à la face avant, et se croisent en créant des sur-épaisseurs qui emprisonnent une couche d'air participant à une meilleure isolation thermique du tissu. Cela est particulièrement important lorsque le tissu est utilisé pour la réalisation d'un vêtement à destination de sapeurs-pompiers, les diverses matières utilisées étant alors réalisées en des matériaux non feu et non fusibles.The reinforcing threads belonging to the reinforcing grid are punctually bonded to the front face, and intersect by creating super-thicknesses that trap a layer of air participating in better thermal insulation of the fabric. This is particularly important when the fabric is used for making a garment for firefighters, the various materials used being then made of non-fire and non-fuse materials.
Avantageusement la grille de renfort est liée au tissu de fond lors de la fabrication de celui-ci.Advantageously, the reinforcing grid is bonded to the base fabric during the manufacture thereof.
Suivant une forme d'exécution de ce tissu la grille de renfort est formée par un entrecroisement de type toile des fils de renfort disposés en chaîne et en trame.According to one embodiment of this fabric the reinforcing grid is formed by a cross-type of canvas reinforcement son arranged in warp and weft.
Avantageusement les différents fils dans les deux directions sont combinés de façon à former une armure complexe de type toile, sergé ou satin, telle que la face avant ou extérieure du tissu soit composée essentiellement des fils de fond et la face intérieure des fils de renfort.Advantageously, the different threads in the two directions are combined so as to form a complex weave of the canvas, twill or satin type, such that the front or outer face of the fabric is composed essentially of the bottom threads and the inner face of the reinforcing threads.
Ces fils de fond croisant, par exemple en sergé, donnent un aspect de surface semblable en tout point à un tissu sergé standard (de poids et de construction identique) qui ne posséderait pas cette grille. Ainsi, les caractéristiques de l'aspect de la surface extérieure seront conservées.These cross threads, for example twill, give a surface appearance similar in every way to a standard twill fabric (weight and identical construction) that would not have this grid. Thus, the characteristics of the appearance of the outer surface will be retained.
Cette construction permet d'obtenir une bonne résistance à l'abrasion de la face extérieure, une excellente conservation de l'aspect après lavage, une meilleure aptitude à l'impression de part les bonnes solidités aux frottements comparativement à une armure rip stop.This construction makes it possible to obtain a good resistance to abrasion of the outer face, an excellent preservation of the appearance after washing, a better printability due to the good fastness to friction compared to a rip stop armor.
Les fils de renfort peuvent, par exemple, être réalisés dans un matériau possédant des performances mécaniques supérieures à celles du matériau du fil de fond. Une construction intéressante vise à lier les fils de renfort dans le sergé de fond régulièrement, de manière à apporter une amélioration considérable au niveau des résistances à la rupture et des déchirures amorcées, des stabilités dimensionnelles du tissu, et également à augmenter sa résistance au break open ( ouverture du tissu suite à l'exposition prolongée à une flamme) ou au flash provoqué par un arc électrique. Ce type de construction permet donc de réaliser des tissus beaucoup plus résistants à poids identiques. Il est de plus possible de construire des textiles de poids plus léger et donc plus confortables pour des caractéristiques mécaniques équivalentes à une structure sans grille de renfort.The reinforcing son may, for example, be made of a material having mechanical performance superior to that of the material of the ground wire. An interesting construction aims to bind the reinforcing son in the bottom twill regularly, so as to provide a considerable improvement in breaking strengths and initiated tears, the dimensional stability of the fabric, and also to increase its resistance to breakage open (opening the fabric after prolonged exposure to a flame) or flash caused by an electric arc. This type of construction therefore makes it possible to produce fabrics that are much more resistant to identical weights. It is also possible to build textiles of lighter weight and therefore more comfortable for mechanical characteristics equivalent to a structure without reinforcement grid.
En outre, comme les fils de renfort ne sont pas liés dans le fond, ils forment des petits flottés de chaîne et de trame qui se croisent perpendiculairement créant des sur-épaisseurs à chaque croisement, ces sur-épaisseurs participant à l'isolation thermique du tissu. En effet, cet effet de grille permet d'augmenter l'épaisseur du tissu, épaisseur d'autant plus importante que les flottés des fils de renfort se croisent perpendiculairement sur la face arrière formant une multitude de petites croix ou petites pointes qui maintiennent constamment une couche d'air dans ce réseau.In addition, since the reinforcing threads are not bound in the bottom, they form small warp and weft floats that intersect perpendicularly creating over-thickness at each cross, these over-thicknesses participating in the thermal insulation of the tissue. Indeed, this grid effect makes it possible to increase the thickness of the fabric, a thickness all the more important that the floats of the reinforcing threads cross perpendicularly on the rear face forming a multitude of small crosses or small points which constantly maintain a layer of air in this network.
Grâce à ce type de construction, on peut également choisir d'incorporer dans cette grille en face arrière des matières sensibles aux éléments extérieurs (rayonnements UV, abrasion...).Thanks to this type of construction, one can also choose to incorporate in this grid on the back of the sensitive materials to external elements (UV radiation, abrasion ...).
On peut ainsi utiliser, pour obtenir un textile avec des propriétés mécaniques améliorées, tous les types d'aramide (et spécialement les para aramides) dans les constituants du fil de renfort puisque la fibrillation de ce fil sera maintenue sur une des faces du textile, sans polluer l'autre face qui est la face extérieure du tissu.It is thus possible to use, to obtain a textile with improved mechanical properties, all types of aramid (and especially para aramids) in the constituents of the reinforcing thread since the fibrillation of this thread will be maintained on one of the faces of the textile, without polluting the other side which is the outer face of the fabric.
La grille de renfort permet en outre d'apporter des performances complémentaires au tissu comme l'antistaticité ou la conductivité. L'intérêt de placer des fils conducteurs en face arrière permet de conserver un aspect de surface uniforme en coloris tout en apportant des propriétés électriques.The reinforcing grid also makes it possible to provide additional performance to the fabric such as antistaticity or conductivity. The advantage of placing conductive wires in the rear face makes it possible to maintain a uniform surface appearance in color while providing electrical properties.
D'autres matériaux peuvent être insérés volontairement en grille de renfort comme des fibres ou des filaments de carbone (très sensibles à l'abrasion), des produits micro-encapsulés, des matériaux à changement de forme, des fils greffés...Other materials can be inserted voluntarily reinforcing grid as fibers or carbon filaments (very sensitive to abrasion), micro-encapsulated products, materials with shape changes, grafted yarns ...
Suivant une forme de réalisation de ce tissu, l'armure de la face endroit est réalisée en sergé 2/1 pour un poids de tissu de 225g/m2. Les fils de fond lient en face avant et les fils de renfort en face arrière. Les proportions entre les fils de fond et les fils de renfort sont les suivantes :
- en chaîne : 6 fils de fond et 1 fil de renfort, soit un fil tous les 2 millimètres
- en trame : 5 fils de fond et 1 fil de renfort, soit un fil tous les 2 millimètres
- in chain: 6 threads and 1 reinforcing thread, one thread every 2 millimeters
- in weft: 5 threads and 1 reinforcing thread, one thread every 2 millimeters
Suivant une possibilité :
- les fils de fond sont réalisés en mélange intime de méta et para aramide avec un faible pourcentage de polyamide carbone tels que connus sous la marque Nomex Comfort®, le titre utilisé est du Nm 60/2.
- les fils de renfort sont réalisés en para aramide craqué, tel que connus sous la marque Kevlar® ou Technora®, le titre utilisé est du Nm 50/2.
- the ground son are made in an intimate mixture of meta and para aramid with a small percentage of carbon polyamide as known under the trade name Nomex Comfort ® , the title used is Nm 60/2.
- the reinforcing son are made of cracked para aramid, as known under the trademark Kevlar ® or Technora ® , the title used is Nm 50/2.
Les fils de renfort forment sur la face arrière des flottés d'environ 2 millimètres qui se croisent perpendiculairement formant une petite pointe en relief dirigée vers l'arrière du tissu. Ce gain en épaisseur du tissu permet d'obtenir des résultats thermiques améliorés par rapport à un tissu de clos et de poids identiques sans grille.The reinforcing son form on the rear face floats of about 2 millimeters which intersect perpendicularly forming a small raised point directed towards the rear of the fabric. This increase in thickness of the fabric makes it possible to obtain improved thermal results compared to a closed fabric of identical weight without a grid.
Cette grille de renfort permet également d'augmenter de manière très significative les résistances à la rupture et à la déchirure du tissu. Les valeurs obtenues ont été comparées avec celles d'un tissu en 100% Nomex Delta C® de poids et de construction identiques mais sans grille de renfort, et un gain d'au moins 40% a été mesuré pour les résistances à la rupture et d'au moins 150% pour les déchirures amorcées.This reinforcing grid also makes it possible to increase very significantly the tensile strengths and the tearing of the fabric. The values obtained were compared with those of a fabric 100% Nomex Delta C ® of identical weight and construction but without reinforcement grid, and a gain of at least 40% was measured for the tensile strengths and at least 150% for primed tears.
De plus, cet article a été testé jusqu'à 25 cycles de lavage et séchage en tumbler pour vérifier la conservation de l'aspect ; le résultat est extrêmement satisfaisant puisque aucune fibrillation et aucun aspect blanchâtre de la surface n'ont été constatés.In addition, this article has been tested up to 25 wash cycles and tumbler drying to verify appearance retention; the result is extremely satisfactory since no fibrillation and no whitish appearance of the surface have been observed.
De par cette construction, dans le cas d'ajout de propriétés antistatiques au textile, il sera possible d'obtenir une face avant lisse et homogène en composition et en coloris puisque la grille antistatique de la face arrière sera efficace mais invisible.By this construction, in the case of adding antistatic properties to the textile, it will be possible to obtain a smooth and homogeneous front face in composition and colors since the antistatic grid of the rear face will be effective but invisible.
L'invention est décrite ci-après en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant une forme d'exécution de ce tissu.The invention is described below with reference to the attached schematic drawing showing an embodiment of this fabric.
Figure 1 est une vue d'un morceau de tissu vu de l'intérieur c'est-à-dire du côté de la grille de renfort;Figure 1 is a view of a piece of cloth seen from the inside that is to say the side of the reinforcing grid;
Figure 2 en est une vue en coupe transversale, perpendiculairement aux fils de trame, selon la ligne II-II de figure 1.Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view, perpendicular to the weft son, along the line II-II of Figure 1.
Le dessin représente un tissu comportant une armure de fils de chaîne dans une direction et une armure de fils de trame dans la direction perpendiculaire. Les fils de chaîne sont désignés par la référence 2 et les fils de trame par la référence 3. Ce tissu comprend sur sa face arrière une grille de renfort composée de fils de chaîne 4 et de fils de trame 5. Comme cela ressort clairement des figures 1 et 2, les fils de chaîne et les fils de trame sont liés sur la face avant du tissu en des points différents et se croisent en des points 6 à l'extérieur du tissu de fond formant la face avant. Il ressort notamment de la figure 2 qu'en certains emplacements, il existe 4 épaisseurs de fils superposés, formant une multitude de petites pointes qui délimitent un réseau maintenant une couche d'air favorisant l'isolation thermique procurée par le tissu.The drawing shows a fabric having warp armor in a direction and a weave of weft yarns in the perpendicular direction. The warp threads are designated by the reference 2 and the weft threads by the reference 3. This fabric comprises on its rear face a reinforcing grid composed of warp threads 4 and
Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce tissu, décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple, elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes demeurant dans le cadre des revendications. C'est ainsi notamment que la face avant du tissu pourrait comporter une armure de type maille, sans que l'on sorte du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the sole embodiment of this fabric, described above as an example, it encompasses all variants remaining within the scope of the claims. It is thus particularly that the front face of the fabric could comprise a mesh type armor, without departing from the scope of the invention.
