Definitions

  • the present invention relates to nonwovens and their methods and production machinery. More particularly, the invention relates to non woven fabrics comprising at least two plies of fibers or filaments which are interconnected by hydraulic connection by jets of water
  • This technique has several disadvantages. It requires the use metal needles requiring a lot of maintenance and leaving perforation marks in the nonwoven obtained. In addition, needles broken metal and it is not unusual to find pieces in nonwoven.
  • the invention overcomes these disadvantages.
  • the subject of the invention is a process for producing a nonwoven, in which which is passed a first ply of fibers or filaments on a mobile support, preferably on the generator of a rotating cylinder, and a second layer of fibers or filaments above the first layer between the support and a projection injector of at least one water jet in direction of support, towards the generator in the case of the cylinder, characterized in that the second web is passed over a plate interposed between the support and the injector and provided, next to the generator in the case of the cylinder, at least one solid part and at least one notch which opens out on the downstream side following the direction of passage of tablecloths.
  • the mobile support can be a conveyor but preferably it is a cylinder.
  • the first layer is held on the rotating cylinder which is especially microperforated and which preferably moves at the same speed tangential or linear than the first layer.
  • This porous support micro-perforated cylinder type or woven conveyor that supports the fibers and reflects the water jets in such a way as to create sufficient turbulence to that the fibers get entangled with each other without them escaping or move indefinitely in the direction of movement of the jets, you can to obtain a connection between the two layers in the parts corresponding to indentations. If there was no cylinder, the clean resistance of each a thin sheet would not allow the fibers to be moved and entangled.
  • the fibers and filaments are not constrained in their displacement and can well get entangled.
  • the process according to the invention can be applied to light nonwoven fabrics with a total grammage of at most 80 g / m 2 and a basis weight of less than 50 g / m 2 per web, although the method also applies to nonwovens with a grammage of up to 200 g / m 2 .
  • the method is also well suited to the production of nonwovens made of low-grade fibers whose title is at most equal to 1.7 dtex.
  • the pressure of the jets is preferably included between -30 and 400 bar.
  • the diameter of the jets is preferably between 75 and 200 microns.
  • the plate interposed between the cylinder and the injector maintains, in looks of its full parts, the two tablecloths at a distance from each other while the plies bind in the indentations forming bridges of link.
  • the remaining space between the two layers may, after or during entanglement operation by passage between the cylinder and the injector, to be filled with a material, especially yarn, foam, granulate, which is of particular interest for hygiene products where it can be incorporate absorbent materials.
  • the speed of the first layer is equal to the speed linear cylinder.
  • the second layer is also passed to the same speed than the first. These speeds are generally between 5 and 50 m / min.
  • hot melt fibers are the webs, and thermally bind the webs by melting the fibers thermofusibles, after the entanglement operation by passage between the cylinder and the injector.
  • These hot-melt fibers which are generally fibers so-called "bicomponents" polyester / polyethylene or polyester / copolyester. have not for the purpose of binding the layers that have already been previously bound by passage between the cylinder and the injector, but to freeze the resulting structure after said passage. For example, from 10 to 30% of fibers may be thermofusible, preferably distributed uniformly in the two layers.
  • the sheets to bind together are not subject when attached to a tensile stress, since they are simply moved and supported.
  • the properties of tablecloths are improved, and in particular properties in the sense machine are substantially the same as in the cross direction.
  • the invention also relates to a machine for producing a woven material comprising a rotating cylinder and an injector sending at least one jet of water towards a generator of the cylinder, characterized by a plate interposed between the cylinder and the injector and provided, next to the generator, at least one solid portion and at least one indentation through which the at least one water jet and which opens out on the downstream side in the direction of rotation of the cylinder.
  • the plate be fixedly mounted.
  • the plate has a thickness of between 0.5 and 15 mm on the one hand to be sufficiently resistant to the pressure of the jets of water, but on the other hand, to be thin enough so that the thickness added that the stream of water has to go does not result in a loss the effectiveness of the water jet.
  • the plate is, opposite the generator, at a distance from the cylinder between 1 and 10 mm, so that, on the one hand, the first sheet can pass on the cylinder under the plate without rubbing on it but also to decrease as much as possible the distance between the plate and the cylinder.
  • the plate is preferably, facing the generator, at a distance from the output of the injector between 2 and 40 mm.
  • the plate has the shape of a cylindrical arc of the same center as the cylinder and of radius just above that of the cylinder.
  • the arc may have an angle in the center from 5 to 20 °.
  • Each notch preferably has a dimension along the generator, so a width, between 1 and 50 mm.
  • the dimension of each solid part, along the generator is advantageously included between 2 and 500 mm.
  • the machine has several indentations of same dimension and several full parts of the same size. But the indentations on the one hand and solid parts on the other hand can also have different widths.
  • each solid part is oblong and its largest dimension extends perpendicular to the generator.
  • two plates can be superimposed on distance from each other between the cylinder and the injector and pass between two plates a third sheet which is based on the first plate, the second layer passing between the second plate and the injector. This allows to connect three layers together. We could also consider linking also a larger number of tablecloths in the same way.
  • the invention can be realized either continuously with sails or tablecloths directly from a machine type carde or spunbond which are then consolidated to varying degrees by water jets (or light calendering, or mechanical needling) in line and before the device which is the subject of this invention, or discontinuous unwinding reels previously more or less consolidated, or by combining uncoiled rolls with a online training for example when you want to put a layer of filaments continuous sandwich between two layers of short fibers.
  • the nonwoven by the process according to the invention After having formed the nonwoven by the process according to the invention on a machine according to the invention, it is dried for example by hot air, the drying possibly causing thermal bonding of the fibers hot melt to freeze the structure and make it resilient.
  • Tablecloths may be made of artificial, synthetic fibers or natural or continuous filaments of thermoplastics or non-thermoplastics. The fibers and filaments are used alone or in mixed.
  • the cylinder can be a rigid rotary perforated cylinder mounted outside a fixed cylindrical body and an inside diameter adjusted to the outside diameter of the cylindrical body so that the minimum game thus preserved allows the rotation while minimizing air leakage.
  • This rotary cylinder can be a single perforated plate, a cylinder made of bronze or stainless steel pierced with holes arranged in a helix, a honeycomb cylinder. It can also be a rolled perforated sheet metal tube covered with fabric drainage sleeve coarse metal which ensures a good uniformity of extraction of water.
  • This rotating cylinder can support a thinner perforated sleeve, which supports effectively the filaments and fibers of the nonwoven during entanglement hydraulic. The distribution of the holes in the sleeve can be random.
  • the Holes can also be organized by being aligned or staggered.
  • the sleeve holes can be evenly distributed in small areas of ordered perforations randomly distributed on the surface of the muff.
  • the sleeve may be made of a metallic fabric or material synthetic or in a mixture of metal fabric and synthetic material. We prefers that the diameter of the holes of the sleeve is between 50 and 500 ⁇ .

  • the invention finally relates to a nonwoven comprising at least two plies of fibers or filaments, bound only to parts longitudinal of them.
  • the nonwoven is free of mechanical needling perforations.
  • the nonwoven is also free binder, even in the case where hot melt fibers are used, since these are only intended to freeze the structure obtained after passage in the machine according to the invention, and not to obtain a connection between the tablecloths as evidenced by the fact that fused hot melt fibers are both in the parts of the sheets which are not connected and in those which are.
  • the nonwoven has longitudinal connecting portions, which are continuous extending over the entire length of the nonwoven, without interruption. When he of hot-melt fibers, these do not represent in the parts which are related less than 20% by weight and better less than 10% by weight.
  • This nonwoven has longitudinal longitudinal spaces between the longitudinal fiber bridges which are either left empty to give volume, or filled with wire, foam or granule.
  • the volume or lining is large and uniform. It is also possible to use air trapped in the spaces between the bridges to give the nonwoven a better insulating power.
  • the nonwovens may have a basis weight of less than 80 g / m 2, although it is also possible to produce nonwovens with a grammage of up to 200 g / m 2, for example. It is also possible to use low-titre fibers, for example of 1.7 dtex and less.
  • the nonwoven according to the invention preferably has a thickness of the bonded parts of between 0.3 and 3 and a thickness of the unbonded portions of between 0.5 and 15 mm.
