  Towel products such as those described above are required to be compatible with ensuring water absorption and texture and suppressing fluff fall. However, if the twist in the pile yarn (yarn constituting a plurality of piles) is weakened to ensure water absorption and texture, fluffing is likely to occur during use and washing. On the other hand, when the twist is increased in the pile yarn in order to suppress the fluff fall, the water absorption and the texture are easily impaired.

  Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a towel product, a method for producing a towel product, and a spun yarn for pile yarn, which can realize both water absorption and texture securing and suppression of fluff fall.

  The towel product of the present invention includes a pile yarn constituting a plurality of piles, and the pile yarn is a spun yarn. In each of the plurality of fibers constituting the spun yarn, one end portion of the fiber is parallel at the center of the spun yarn. Constituting the fiber part, the other end part of the fiber constitutes the wound fiber part in the peripheral part of the spun yarn, the yarn count of the spun yarn is Ne35 to 45, and the ratio of the number of parallel fiber parts in the cross section of the spun yarn Is 20 to 30%, the ratio of the number of wound fiber portions is 70 to 80%, and the peripheral length of each of the plurality of piles is 10 to 30 mm.

  In this towel product, a parallel fiber portion exists at the center of the spun yarn used for the pile yarn. Since the space between the fibers is large in the parallel fiber portion, good water absorption is obtained. In particular, the yarn count of the spun yarn is Ne35 to 45, and the ratio of the number of parallel fiber portions in the cross section of the spun yarn is 20 to 30%, so that good water absorption is reliably obtained. Further, due to the presence of the parallel fiber portion, the spun yarn has a small torque (the force that the spun yarn itself tends to rotate), and the spun yarn has a high bending rigidity. Therefore, it is difficult for the pile to be twisted, and the self-supporting state of the pile is maintained. If the self-sustaining state of the pile is maintained, the elasticity resulting from the rigidity of the pile itself is secured, so that a good texture can be obtained. In particular, the yarn count of the spun yarn is Ne35 to 45, and in the cross section of the spun yarn, the ratio of the number of parallel fiber portions is 20 to 30%, and the peripheral length of each of the plurality of piles is 10 to 30 mm. A good texture can be reliably obtained. Further, the presence of the parallel fiber portion suppresses the fiber from dropping off due to the action of an external force such as friction. In particular, the yarn count of the spun yarn is Ne35 to 45, and the ratio of the number of parallel fiber portions in the cross section of the spun yarn is 20 to 30%, so that the dropping of the fiber is reliably suppressed. As described above, according to this towel product, it is possible to achieve both of ensuring water absorption and texture and suppressing fluff fall.

Therefore, it is difficult for the pile to be twisted, and the self-supporting state of the pile is maintained. If the self-sustaining state of the pile is maintained, the elasticity resulting from the rigidity of the pile itself is secured, so that a good texture can be obtained. Further, the presence of the parallel fiber portion suppresses the fiber from dropping off due to the action of an external force such as friction. In particular, since the spun yarn has 2000 to 7000 fluffs of 1 mm or more per 100 m, it is possible to surely obtain a good texture and to reliably prevent the fibers from falling off. As described above, according to this towel product, it is possible to achieve both of ensuring water absorption and texture and suppressing fluff fall.

It is a figure for demonstrating the property of the spun yarn of FIG. It is a block diagram of the spinning machine which manufactures the spun yarn of FIG. It is a schematic diagram of the pneumatic spinning device of the spinning machine of FIG.

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In addition, in each figure, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same or an equivalent part, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the towel product 1 includes a pile yarn 3 that constitutes a plurality of piles 3 a in the towel fabric 2, and a ground weave yarn 4 that constitutes a fabric portion 4 a in the towel fabric 2. The circumferential length of each pile 3a (the length of the pile yarn 3 per pile 3a) is 10 to 30 mm. The towel product 1 is a product including a towel cloth 2, and is, for example, a towel, a bathrobe, a sheet or the like.

  In the towel product 1, the spun yarn 10 is used for the pile yarn 3 and the fabric yarn 4. As shown in FIG. 2, the spun yarn 10 is configured by twisting a plurality of fibers 11 that are natural fibers such as cotton. 2, (a) is a schematic diagram of one fiber 11 among the plurality of fibers 11 constituting the spun yarn 10, and (b) is a schematic diagram of the entire spun yarn 10. In FIG.

  One end portion 11 a of each fiber 11 constitutes a parallel fiber portion 12 in the center portion 10 a of the spun yarn 10. The one end portion 11 a is a portion including the end portion of the fiber 11 on one side along the center line L. The center portion 10 a is a portion including the center line L of the spun yarn 10 in the spun yarn 10. The parallel fiber portion 12 is configured such that one end portions 11 a of the plurality of fibers 11 are along the center line L. That is, in the parallel fiber part 12, the one end part 11a of the some fiber 11 exists in the state in which twist is weaker than the untwisted state or the wound fiber part 13 described below.

  The other end portion 11 b of each fiber 11 constitutes a wound fiber portion 13 in the peripheral portion 10 b of the spun yarn 10. The other end portion 11b is a portion including the end portion of the fiber 11 on the other side (opposite side of one side) along the center line L. The peripheral portion 10b is a portion surrounding the central portion 10a of the spun yarn 10. The wound fiber portion 13 is configured by winding the other end portions 11b of the plurality of fibers 11 in one direction around the center line L.

  The yarn count of the spun yarn 10 is Ne35-45. In the cross section of the spun yarn 10 perpendicular to the center line L, the ratio of the number of the parallel fiber portions 12 to the total number of the parallel fiber portions 12 and the wound fiber portions 13 is 20 to 30%. In the cross section of the spun yarn 10 perpendicular to the center line L, the ratio of the number of the wound fiber portions 13 to the total number of the parallel fiber portions 12 and the wound fiber portions 13 is 70 to 80% (that is, 100% to parallel). The ratio obtained by subtracting the ratio of the number of fiber parts 12). The spun yarn 10 has, for example, 2000 to 7000 fluffs per 100 m (more preferably 3500 to 5000 fluffs per 100 m) and 1 mm or more fluffs 14 in a state where the comber process has been performed.

  The spun yarn 10 configured as described above has the following properties. That is, as shown in FIG. 3A, the spun yarn 10 is rotated 100 times with a circumferential length P of 1 to 1.5 m (for example, 1.372 m) to form a ring-shaped yarn bundle 15 (so-called 3), as shown in FIG. 3B, a bundle of yarns 16 is formed by bundling a ring-shaped yarn bundle 15 to a length of ½ of the circumferential length P. When the yarn bundle 16 is supported at one end 16a, the diameter of the bundle of yarn bundles 16 that are naturally intertwined by the twist of the spun yarn 10 is 5.5 to 8 mm. When the ring-shaped yarn bundle 15 is bundled to a length of ½ of the circumferential length P to form a bundle of yarn bundles 16, as shown in FIG. The ring-shaped yarn bundle 15 is supported at the first support point A and the second support point B separated from each other by a distance of 1/2, and the first support point A and the second support point B are moved away from each other, A predetermined tension is applied to one bundle of yarn bundles 16. When a bundle of yarn bundles 16 is supported at one end 16a, one of the first support point A and the second support point B is supported at the one end 16a, and the first support point A and the second support point are supported. Release support on the other side of B. The spun yarn 10 having the properties as described above is particularly preferably used for a pile yarn constituting a plurality of piles in a towel product (that is, preferably used as a spun yarn for pile yarn).

  As described above, in the towel product 1, the parallel fiber portion 12 exists in the center portion 10 a of the spun yarn 10 used for the pile yarn 3. In the parallel fiber part 12, since the space between the fibers 11 is large, good water absorption is obtained. In particular, the yarn count of the spun yarn 10 is Ne35 to 45, and the ratio of the number of the parallel fiber portions 12 in the cross section of the spun yarn 10 is 20 to 30%, so that good water absorption is reliably obtained. Further, due to the presence of the parallel fiber portion 12, the torque of the spun yarn 10 (force that the spun yarn 10 itself tries to rotate) is small, and the bending stiffness of the spun yarn 10 is large. Therefore, it is difficult for the pile 3a to be twisted, and the self-standing state of the pile 3a is maintained even after repeated use and washing. Since the elasticity resulting from the rigidity of pile 3a itself will be ensured if the self-supporting state of pile 3a is maintained, a favorable texture will be obtained. Particularly, the yarn count of the spun yarn 10 is Ne35 to 45, the ratio of the number of the parallel fiber portions 12 in the cross section of the spun yarn 10 is 20 to 30%, and the circumferential length of each pile 3a is 10 to 30 mm. A good texture can be surely obtained. Further, the presence of the parallel fiber portion 12 suppresses the fiber 11 from falling off due to the action of an external force such as friction. In particular, since the yarn count of the spun yarn 10 is Ne35 to 45 and the ratio of the number of the parallel fiber portions 12 in the cross section of the spun yarn 10 is 20 to 30%, the dropping of the fiber 11 is reliably suppressed. In particular, since the spun yarn 10 has 2000 to 7000 fluffs of 1 mm or more per 100 m, a good texture can be reliably obtained and the fibers 11 can be reliably prevented from falling off. As described above, according to the towel product 1, it is possible to achieve both of ensuring water absorption and texture and suppressing fluff fall.

  Since the towel product 1 is a product that directly touches human skin, 100% of the fibers constituting the towel product 1 are preferably natural fibers such as cotton. However, since the fiber length of natural fibers such as cotton varies and includes short fibers, fluffing is likely to occur when the twist of the spun yarn constituting the towel product 1 is weakened. When ultra-long cotton is used, although fluffing is suppressed, there is a problem that costs increase. According to the spun yarn 10, even when 100% of the fibers 11 are natural fibers such as cotton, it is possible to obtain a towel product 1 that achieves both water absorption and texture and suppression of fluff removal. .

  In the towel product 1, the spun yarn 10 is rotated 100 times with a circumferential length P of 1 to 1.5 m to form a ring-shaped yarn bundle 15, and the ring-shaped yarn bundle 15 is bundled to ½ the circumferential length P. When the bundle of yarn bundles 16 is configured and the bundle of yarn bundles 16 is supported by one end 16a, the diameter of the bundle of yarn bundles 16 is 5.5 to 8 mm. is doing. When the spun yarn 10 having such properties is used for the pile yarn 3, it is possible to more reliably realize both water absorption and texture and suppression of fluff fall.

  In the towel product 1, the base yarn 4 constituting the base fabric portion 4 a is the spun yarn 10. Thereby, also in the ground fabric part 4a, coexistence with especially ensuring of water absorption and suppression of fluff fall can be implement | achieved more reliably.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the spun yarn 10 and the towel product 1 will be described. The spun yarn 10 is manufactured by a spinning machine 100 as shown in FIG. The spinning machine 100 includes a draft device 110, an air spinning device 120, and a winding device 130. The draft device 110 drafts a sliver (fiber bundle) supplied from a fiber supply unit 140 such as a can with a plurality of roller pairs. The air spinning device 120 generates a spun yarn 10 by twisting the fiber bundle drafted by the draft device 110 by a swirling air flow. The winding device 130 winds the spun yarn 10 generated by the pneumatic spinning device 120 around a bobbin to form a package.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the pneumatic spinning device 120 includes a spinning chamber 121, a fiber guide portion 122, and a hollow guide shaft body 123. Of the plurality of roller pairs of the draft device 110, the fiber bundle F fed from the front roller pair 111 arranged on the most downstream side in the traveling direction of the fiber bundle F enters the spinning chamber 121 via the fiber guide portion 122. Guided. In the spinning chamber 121, a swirling air flow (open arrow in FIG. 5) is generated by the injection of air from a plurality of swirling air flow generating nozzles (not shown). The fiber bundle F guided into the spinning chamber 121 is guided into the hollow guide shaft body 123. At this time, the other end portion 11b of the plurality of fibers 11 is reversed and swung by the tip portion of the hollow guide shaft body 123 by the swirling air flow, and is wound around the one end portion 11a of the plurality of subsequent fibers 11 (FIG. 2). The spun yarn 10 generated in this way is sent out of the pneumatic spinning device 120 through the hollow guide shaft 123.

  The towel product 1 uses the spun yarn 10 manufactured as described above as the pile yarn 3, and the towel fabric so that a plurality of piles 3a each having a circumference of 10 to 30 mm are constituted by the pile yarn 3. It is manufactured through a process of forming 2. In the process of forming the towel cloth 2, the spun yarn 10 manufactured as described above may be used as the base fabric yarn 4. According to this method for producing a towel product 1, it is possible to obtain a towel product 1 in which both water absorption and texture are secured and fuzz removal is achieved.

  Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. For example, in the above embodiment, the spun yarn 10 is used for the pile yarn 3 and the fabric yarn 4 of the towel product 1. However, if the spun yarn 10 is used for at least the pile yarn 3, the water absorption and texture of the towel product 1 are used. The towel product 1 in which both ensuring and suppression of fluff fall are realized can be obtained.
