Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a fabric referred to as mono-fabric, consisting of three layers of yarns, that is, an outer layer, an intermediate binding layer, and an inner layer, where the yarns of the outer and inner layers are not bound to one another, said mono-fabric standing out because of its impact abrasion and cut resistance.
  • the yarns of the outer and inner layers of the fabric are formed by warp yarns, and the yarns of the intermediate layer are formed by weft yarns. Therefore, the intermediate layer has binding points with the yarns of the outer layer, and in turn, the intermediate layer has binding points with the yarns of the inner layer, such that the intermediate layer to outer layer binding points are shifted with respect to the intermediate layer to inner layer binding points.
  • the object of the invention is to obtain a single fabric, or mono-fabric, that protects motorcycle riders in the event of possible accidents and protects people who practice extreme sports from skin burns and injuries caused by abrasion and friction when sliding on asphalt, and from cuts that may occur when hitting against a sharp object, such as guard rails or other vehicles, for example.
  • the mono-fabric of the invention has insulating and low thermal conductivity properties, is breathable and waterproof, being a mono-fabric which as a whole offers features and properties that are completely innovative and inexistent today.
  • the fabric can be used as a fabric for making garments in general, protective garments and technical garments, and it can also be used as a technical fabric.
  • the garment thus made with these multiple layers of fabrics prevents the injuries to the skin caused during the accidents due to falling, in which movement between layers of fabrics forming the garment and the inner layer of fabric in contact with the skin, which does not move, causes forces to be distributed to the outer layer.
  • multilayer garments provide an improvement to garments made of mono-layer fabrics (that are not very resistant to impact abrasion and to cutting) for motorcycle riders.
  • the resulting final garment weight is high and this makes it uncomfortable, rather inflexible (as it provides no elasticity), difficult to put together when cutting and making the fabrics, the garment looking as if it is padded, and too hot in the summer.
  • the proposed fabric has been designed for the purpose of solving following aspects required by motorcycle riders, professional motorcycle riders and extreme sports athletes:
  • the impact abrasion and cut resistant mono-fabric consists of three layers of yarns, in which there are distinguished an outer layer, an intermediate binding layer and an inner layer.
  • the three layers are woven and bound in one and the same structure, forming a single fabric, or mono-fabric, from natural, artificial, cellulosic and synthetic fiber yarns or blends thereof, and in which the yarns of the outer layer and the yarns of the inner layer of the fabric are not bound to one another.
  • the yarns of the outer and inner layers of the fabric are formed by warp yarns and the yarns of the intermediate or binding layer are formed by weft yarns.
  • the yarns of the intermediate layer have binding points with the outer and inner layers, respectively, such that the binding points of the intermediate layer with the yarns of the outer layer are shifted with respect to the binding points of the intermediate layer with the yarns of the inner layer, such that the yarns of the outer and inner layers are not bound to one another.
  • the obtained result is a structure integrated in a single fabric, a mono-fabric, characterized by having an outer layer and another inner layer that are completely separated from one another, although structurally integrated in a single ensemble by means of the yarns of the intermediate layer, but maintaining the features and properties thereof distinguishing them from one another. Therefore, the present invention keeps the layers isolated from one another and forms a technical barrier between the outer and inner layers.
  • the fabric in question provides, as a result of how it is produced, high impact abrasion and cut resistance in the event of falls and accidents.
  • it since it is made up of two layers of yarns that are not bound to and different from one another, there is created a layer of intermediate air resulting in thermal insulation and breathability; furthermore, due to the fabric's elasticity and original shape recovery properties, it makes it easier to move and adapt to the user anatomy, offering comfort and reducing drag, and also providing greater driving safety.
  • the yarns forming the layers are technical bicomponent yarns, bicomponent yarns being formed by cores covered with wicks of cut fibers in which the core consists of continuous, textured, elastic and rigid filaments.
  • the outer layer of the impact abrasion and cut resistant mono-fabric consists of bicomponent yarns, the inside of the yarn being made up of at least one core formed by technical fiber preferably consisting of filaments having high abrasion and cut resistance properties, and the outside being covered with wicks of natural, artificial, cellulosic or synthetic cut fibers, or blends thereof.
  • the outer layer therefore acts as a first protection or armor, being a textile structure with high impact abrasion and cut resistance. It also protects the user from possible impacts against gravel, screws, insects or small foreign bodies they may run into while driving.
  • the yarns forming the outer layer of the protective mono-fabric can be dyed with indigo or sulfur dyes to make it look like a denim or jean fabric.
  • the yarns of the outer layer of the mono-fabric are treated with products rendering it waterproof, resulting in a rainproof fabric.
  • the inner layer which is in contact with the user's skin, is what regulates thermal insulation.
  • This inner layer consists of natural, cellulosic, synthetic or artificial fiber yarns, or blends thereof.
  • this inner layer consists of bicomponent yarns made up of a core formed by filaments with abrasion and cut resistance properties, and externally covered with natural fibers, artificial, cellulosic, synthetic fibers, or blends thereof, giving this layer dual protection.
  • the yarns are completely separated between the outer and inner layers, there is air between them that leads to thermal insulation, first allowing dissipation of the heat produced by friction due to the outer layer rubbing against the road asphalt in the event of falling due to an accident, increasing protection time and preventing it from being transmitted to the inner layer, and second, this insulation favors temperature regulation.
  • the intermediate layer consists of elastic bicomponent yarns made up of at least one core of the yarn formed by filaments of technical fibers having with high abrasion and cut resistance, along with elastomeric filaments, covered on the outside by natural, cellulosic, or synthetic fibers, or blends thereof, conferring to same elastic and original shape recovery properties.
  • said fabric makes it easier to move and to adapt to the user's anatomy, providing comfort and reducing drag, offering greater driving safety for motorcycle riders.
  • the yarns of the intermediate layer or framing are dyed to make the ensemble look like denim fabric.
  • the core of the bicomponent yarn is preferably a yarn formed by continuous or textured filaments of: polyethylene (UHMWPE), HT (high tenacity) polyamide, metaramid, aramid and/or HT (high tenacity) polyester.
  • the core of the bicomponent yarn is covered with natural, artificial, cellulosic or synthetic fibers, or blends thereof.
  • the bicomponent yarns of the outer face can optionally be externally covered with a blend of synthetic fire resistant or fireproof fibers, making the fabric flame or fire resistant.
  • the counts of the yarns used in the mono-fabric of the invention are preferably counts ranging between 8 and 50 metric counts.
  • the structure of the resulting mono-fabric is warp or weft backed fabric with plain or twill weaves.
  • the combination of the binding of the bicomponent yarns of the outer and inner layers combined with the elastic bicomponent weft yarns of the intermediate layer, according to the invention, allows obtaining elasticity along the width of the fabric exceeding the fabrics on the market today, and also being able to adjust the garment perfectly to the body with greater user comfort and safety.
  • the fabric of the invention is elastic with an elasticity greater than 18%, being comfortable in the event of movements and having the ability to recover the initial shape less than 4% due to the properties of the fibers used, which is highly relevant due to the excessive time a motorcycle rider's knees are bent while riding the motorcycle.
  • the developed mono-fabric can have up to 50% more yarns per square centimeter than known mono-layer fabrics, so it does not lead to injuries and burns in the event of possible accidents due to falling or collisions, and provides very high protection and heat dissipation levels greater than those offered by known mono-layer fabrics.
  • the mono-fabric of the invention it is necessary to point out its temperature regulating feature, making it a hybrid structure suitable for all seasons and weather conditions. At the same time, it acts as a technical protective barrier and as an impact abrasion barrier (when the textile structure hits against the pavement and slides over the asphalt). During this physical friction process, the heat produced by the kinetic energy produced is dissipated to the intermediate layer of the structure, preventing and delaying this heat from being transferred to the inner structure, i.e., the one in contact with the skin, preventing burns and scratching on the user's skin.
  • the fabric of the invention is also ergonomic given its elastic structure with shape memory, which allows the ability to adapt to the human anatomy, where it is a novel product with respect to solutions existing on the market, such as leather or multilayer garments. This proposal allows adaptation to the human body, which renders it more comfortable and provides greater driving safety.
  • the fabric stands out because it is easy to maintain, since it can be washed in a washer and dried in a dryer, which makes it easier to maintain over other materials such as leather or multilayer garments, formed by two or more fabrics.
  • the fabric of the invention can have 50% more yarns per square centimeter than mono-layer fabrics, that it assures protection for up to 32 meters that the user skids on asphalt, and that, it has an impact abrasion protection level according to UNE EN standard 13595-2:2002 both for level 1 (longer than 4 seconds) and for level 2 (longer than 7 seconds).
  • FIG. 1 depicts an embodiment of the invention.
  • the fabric of the invention preferably consists of yarns forming the outer layer (1) and yarns forming the inner layer (3) having high abrasion and cut resistance.
  • These yarns (1 and 3) are bicomponent yarns, formed by a core of one or more yarns consisting of continuous filament of technical fibers having high impact abrasion and cut resistance, preferably high modulus polyethylene (UHMWPE) or high density polyamide, covered with natural, cellulosic, synthetic, or fireproof fibers protecting the cores of continuous filament, the yarns of the outer layer being dyed with indigo or sulfur dyes to make them look like denim.
  • UHMWPE high modulus polyethylene
  • the intermediate layer of the fabric is preferably formed by elastic and abrasion and cut resistant yarns (2).
  • These yarns (2) are bicomponent yarns formed by two cores, one core consisting of an elastomeric filament and the other core consisting of a filament of technical fibers having high abrasion and cut resistance, both covered with natural fibers.
  • the yarns of the intermediate weft layer (2) have binding points with the yarns of the outer layer (4) and with the yarns of the inner layer (5), thereby forming a single fabric, i.e., a mono-fabric, in which the yarns of the outer layer and the yarns of the inner layer are not bound to one another.
  • Garments made with these fabrics have elastic and high impact abrasion and cut resistance properties, exceeding multilayer textile garments or mono-layer textile garments.
  • Figures 2 and 3 are included in the present specification for the purpose of providing greater understanding of the bicomponent yarns forming the layers of the fabric of the invention.
  • Figure 2 shows a side view of an example of bicomponent yarn, in which the core of the yarn (6) is formed by filaments arranged in parallel, in the center of the yarn, and these filaments are externally covered with cut fibers (7)
  • Figure 3 depicts a cross-section of a dyed bicomponent yarn of the type used to form the outer layer.
  • the core formed by filaments (6) is thereby covered with outer cut fibers (7) that are partially dyed with indigo or sulfur dyes (7').
