Conventional pile raised fiber products have a sewn outer periphery. In the case of a normal plain weave product, the outer peripheral portion may not be frayed immediately even if it is not sewn. However, in the case of a pile fabric, fraying occurs immediately from the cut portion, so it cannot be left as it is, and is always sewn. This sewing can prevent fraying at the outer peripheral portion, but this sewing is a laborious operation, which increases the cost and the manufacturing period.

In addition, in order to perform sewing effectively, the shape of the product is required to be simple. Actually, the outer shape of the towel product is limited to a square or a rectangle. The towels described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 are printed with precision by transfer and are excellent in aesthetics, but are also sewn, and the shape and dimensions are the standard of a normal towel.

An object of the present invention is to provide a pile-raised fiber product that does not have a sewn edge, is simple and inexpensive, and can freely select various shapes.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a pile raised fiber product of the present invention is a pile fabric surface formed by a pile yarn of a thermoplastic synthetic fiber, an outer peripheral edge portion formed by fusing on the outer periphery of the pile fabric surface, It has a printing surface provided in the ground. The outer peripheral edge can also be formed by a closed curve other than a rectangle. Furthermore, the outer peripheral edge may be shaped like a character with an animal motif. Moreover, the printing surface by transcription | transfer can also be provided in both surfaces.

This device can realize a pile raised fiber product in which the outer peripheral portion is not frayed without performing edge processing by sewing, and can express a precise pattern on the pile surface.

It is a top view which shows the example of a pile raising fiber product. It is a top view which shows the structure of the example of the warp knitted pile fabric of a pile raising fiber product. It is the same bottom.

A mode for carrying out the invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a plan view showing an example of a pile raised fiber product. The pile raised fiber product 1 has a pile fabric surface 2 formed by pile yarn and an outer peripheral edge portion 3 formed by fusing on the outer periphery of the pile fabric surface 2. And the printing surface 4 is provided in the pile fabric surface, and the pattern is expressed.

As the pile yarn, a thermoplastic synthetic fiber is used, and a polyester yarn is particularly suitable. The pile may be on one side of the fabric or on both sides. Further, the pile fabric may be formed by a pile weave like a normal towel product, or may be formed by warp knitting. At least one surface is provided with a pile fabric surface having a printing surface.

Laser cutting is suitable for fusing. Thereby, regardless of whether it is a straight line or a curved line, various cutting lines can be freely selected, and cutting can be performed at high speed. Therefore, it can be cut into a rectangle like a normal towel product, or can be cut to form an outer shape with a closed curve other than a rectangle. In particular, by using the polyester yarn, the melted yarn end is solidified along the laser cutting line to form an outer peripheral edge, and fraying of the yarn is effectively prevented.

The printing surface may be provided by transfer printing, or may be ink jet printing. In particular, by using sublimation transfer, it is possible to obtain a precise pattern that can express a photograph or the like.

The example shown in FIG. 1 will be described in more detail. In this example, the pile fabric was created by warp knitting. First, the manufacturing method of this pile fabric is demonstrated.

The pile fabric x is a pile fabric having a warp knitting, and can be manufactured by machine knitting. Such warp knitting machines are already popular. FIG. 2 shows a first surface that is not piled up.

Each row of warp knitting has a set of four yarns. The upper pile yarn L1, which is a pile yarn appearing on the first surface, the pile stopping yarn L2, the lower yarn L3, and the lower pile yarn L4 which is a pile yarn appearing on the second surface which is the surface opposite to the first surface are combined. And used in each column. Here, a subscript n is added to each yarn in a certain row n, and they are represented as an upper pile yarn L1 _n , a pile stopper yarn L2 _n , a lower yarn L3 _n , and a lower pile yarn L4 _n , respectively.

On the first surface, a stop point P1 is formed in which the upper pile yarn L1 _n in the row _n is stopped by the lower yarn L3 _n by the pile stop yarn L2 _n of that row. Further, a stop point P2 is formed at which the upper pile yarn L1 _n is stopped by the lower yarn L3 _{n + 1} by the pile stop yarn L2 _{n + 1 of the} adjacent row n + 1. Therefore, the upper pile is in a sleeping state. In the example of FIG. 2, the upper pile yarn L1 _n also forms a stop point P3 that is fastened to the lower yarn L3 _{n + 2} by the pile stop yarn L2 _{n + 2 in} the row n + 2 adjacent to the row n + 1, that is, two rows away from the row n. Has been. In this way, the upper pile does not appear on the first surface, and the first surface becomes a satin-like flat surface.

The second surface is a normal warp knitted pile. FIG. 3 shows a second surface that is the surface opposite to the first surface. In the second aspect, the stop point P0 of the base of the lower pile yarns L4 _n in a column n is stopped to the lower thread L3 _n by pile lock yarn L2 _n of the column is formed. However, the lower pile yarn L4 _n is not stopped by the other pile stopping yarns L2 _{n + 1} . Therefore, on the second surface, the pile protrudes in the same manner as a normal pile fabric.

As described above, in this warp knitted pile fabric, the first surface is a flat surface not piled. On the other hand, the second surface is a pile surface and has a soft touch.

Polyester filament yarns are used for all of the upper pile yarn L1, pile stop yarn L2, lower yarn L3, and lower pile yarn L4. For example, filament polyester 75 denier / 36 and filament polyester 144 denier / 72 can be used.

These yarns were used and warp knitted at a density of 28 gauge (row) / inch to obtain a pile fabric. A printed surface was formed on the pile fabric by sublimation transfer (thermal transfer), and cut with a laser to obtain a piled fiber product as shown in FIG.

The edge 3 which prevents a fraying is formed in an outer peripheral part even if it does not sew by the cutting | disconnection by a laser. In FIG. 1, the outer peripheral edge portion is displayed with a wide width in order to emphasize the outer peripheral edge portion. Even in this case, fraying can be sufficiently prevented.

Since it is a laser cutting, it can be cut into any shape. In the example of FIG. 1, the character is shaped like an animal. With this outer shape alone, it is possible to obtain a completely different aesthetic from conventional pile products. Moreover, since the polyester yarn is used, a precise pattern can be applied by sublimation transfer. In this example, the front side of the character was printed with one side as the front side, and the back side of the character was printed on the back side (not shown). In this example, printing was performed on both the surface on which the pile was formed and the surface on which the pile was not formed, but a beautiful pattern appeared on both surfaces. Simple patterns such as illustrations for animation can be expressed in vivid colors, but it is also possible to express imprints and textures by printing with high resolution.

This animal character-shaped pile raised fiber product can also be used as a novelty towel handkerchief. Since it has a pile surface, it has good water absorption and excellent touch. It can also be applied to table place mats and coasters. Furthermore, it is also possible to wipe glasses by using microfibers.

In the present invention, the pile fabric may be manufactured by a towel loom. For example, all of the upper and lower pile yarns, warp yarns and weft yarns can be pile woven as polyester No. 40 twin yarn or No. 20 single yarn. The pile can be single-sided or double-sided. Further, one surface may be sheared. After all, it can be made into a product as it is by cutting it into a desired shape with a laser.
