DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a tufted carpet.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional tufted carpets have loop piles, cut piles or both piles formed on a surface to be used (surface), and the height of each pile, the thickness of pile yarn,
The pattern is expressed by color, needle shift of tufting machine, jute mover, etc.

[0003]

There are basically two types of piles in a conventional tufted carpet: a loop pile and a cut pile, both of which are set up vertically with respect to the base fabric surface. Is formed. For this reason, the pile was crushed or fell due to the load when the carpet was used, and the appearance change was much more noticeable than that of the piles in other parts, and the appearance was irregular. In addition, foreign matter such as dust easily enters between the piles and between the fibers constituting the pile,
Cleaning was not easy either.

The present invention has been proposed in view of the above-mentioned problems of the conventional tufted carpet, and an object of the present invention is to reduce a change in appearance of a pile due to a load during use, and to remove dust and the like between the piles. It is an object of the present invention to provide a tufted carpet having a unique appearance and function that has not been seen before, which makes it easier to clean by reducing the invasion of foreign substances.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object,
The present invention possess a base fabric, a loop pile or cut pile or both of the pile and the pile yarn to form erected pierced by tufting machine base fabric, and the formed upright pi
And a second surface having stitch piles arranged in parallel along the base fabric surface by the pile yarn. The first surface is a back surface, and the second surface is a use surface (front surface).

According to the present invention, since the stitch pile on the surface to be used (surface) is arranged in parallel with the surface of the base fabric, the present invention does not fall down or be crushed by a load during use, and does not change appearance. Less is. In addition, dust is unlikely to enter between the piles and the like, and the surface is smooth, so that cleaning is easy. Further, since the use surface is smooth, the back surface has a loop pile, a cut pile, and the like standing up and having a height, so that it has an appropriate cushioning property. In addition, the use surface (surface) can express a flat textured structure by stitch piles arranged in parallel along the base fabric surface, providing a variety of appearance shapes. it can.

In the practice of the present invention, the formation density of the stitch pile on the second surface is in the range of 2 / cm to 13 / cm in the horizontal direction, and the unit stitch pile in the vertical direction. Length from 0.2cm to 5
cm.

The adhesive layer may be a foamed elastic material layer,
Furthermore, you may implement by backing a secondary base cloth on an adhesive layer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional side view showing an embodiment of the tufted carpet according to the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an example of a surface structure showing an embodiment of the tufted carpet according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 is a base cloth, 2 is a pile yarn,
Reference numeral 3 denotes an adhesive layer, and reference numeral 4 denotes a secondary base fabric.

As the base fabric 1, a conventional tuft base fabric such as a woven or non-woven fabric made of natural fibers, synthetic fibers, or other appropriate fiber materials can be used as it is.

As the pile yarn 2, spun yarn, filament yarn or other conventionally used pile yarn made of natural fiber, synthetic fiber, mineral fiber or other appropriate fiber material is used as it is, and the thickness of the pile yarn 2 is as follows. 20 from 500d
000d is desirable. Then, the pile yarn 2 is pierced through the base fabric 1 by a known tufting machine to form a loop pile 2a upright on the first surface A, and the second surface B
Then, a stitch pile 2b parallel to the surface of the base cloth 1 is formed.
As a manufacturing means therefor, a conventional tufting machine can be used. In addition, conventional equipment such as a needle shifter and a jute mover can be used as it is for pattern creation.

It is to be noted that a cut pile may be used instead of the loop pile 2a formed upright on the first surface A, or both piles may be mixed.

The formation density of the stitch pile 2b formed on the second surface B is 2 / c in the horizontal direction.
m to 13 lines / cm, and the length of the unit stitch pile in the vertical direction can be in the range of 0.2 cm to 5 cm. These have a horizontal direction density in a known tufting machine of 5/16 gauge to 5 /
This corresponds to a range of 64 gauges, and corresponds to a range of 12 stitches to 0.5 stitches in the vertical direction.

The pile yarn 2 by the tufting machine
After the pile is formed by piercing the base cloth 1, that is, after the tuft, an adhesive is applied to the first surface A side by the same means as the conventional tufted carpet and dried, and the adhesive layer 3 is removed. The pile yarn 2 is formed and fixed to the base fabric 1. The adhesive used is styrene-butadiene rubber (S
BR), nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR), ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), polyurethane (PUR), polyethylene (PE), vinyl chloride (P
VC), bitumen and other conventional ones can be used as they are. This adhesive layer 3 may be a foamed elastic material layer such as urethane foam.

Further, a secondary base cloth 4 may be attached to the adhesive layer 3. As the secondary base fabric 4, a jute or other similar fabric can be used.

The tufted carpet of the present invention has the above structure, and uses the second surface B having the stitch pile 2b arranged in parallel with the surface of the base fabric 1 as a use surface (surface).
Laying on the target floor. This stitch pile 2
For example, the second surface B having b has a flat textured pattern as shown in FIG. 2, so that the falling and the crushing due to the load are reduced, and the external shape change between the load acting portion and other portions is reduced. Because there are few, appearance improves.

Further, the present invention provides an anti-mite treatment, an insect repellent treatment,
The base fabric 1 subjected to antibacterial treatment or the like can be used. In this case, as compared with the conventional tufted carpet, the volume occupied by the stitch pile 2b on the surface to be used is small, and the contact area between the surface of the base cloth 1 and the pile yarn 2 is large, so that the effect is higher.

Further, in the present invention, a pile yarn 2 which has been subjected to a surface treatment with a water repellent or an oil repellent such as a fluorine resin or a silicon resin can be used. In this case, compared to a conventional tufted carpet with equivalent treatment,
A great effect can be obtained, and a dirt is hardly adhered due to a synergistic effect with the smoothness of the surface texture, so that it is easily removed.

[0020]

According to the present invention, the stitch piles on the use surface (front surface) side are arranged in parallel to the base fabric surface, so that they do not fall down or be crushed by the load during use, and there is little change in appearance. . In addition, dust is unlikely to enter between the piles and the like, and the surface is smooth, so that cleaning is easy. Further, since the use surface is smooth, the back surface has a loop pile, a cut pile, and the like standing up and having a height, so that it has an appropriate cushioning property. In addition, the use surface (surface) is a tufted carpet with a variety of appearances, with a stitched pile arranged in parallel along the base fabric surface, which allows the expression of a flat textured structure. Can be provided.
