Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2016-507289 discloses a modified towelette as a kind of towelette, and the modified towelette is a towelette whose shape is transformed into a neck pillow or a muffler. In this way, a towelette whose shape is deformable is known.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 2016-507289

  By the way, since the above-described towel blanket is made of a material having high flexibility, there is a problem in that when the towel blanket is worn on the user's body, the shape of the towel blanket is lost and the user easily clings to the body. Since towelettes are generally used in the summer, it is easy for the user to feel the heat when the towelette clings to the body. Therefore, when such a towelette is used, there is a concern that the user may feel uncomfortable when the user's sleep is lost due to the shape collapse and cling to the body. Therefore, it is required to prevent the user from clinging to the user's body and to prevent the shape from collapsing.

  It is an object of the present invention to provide a towelette, a method of manufacturing the towelette, and a towel, the shape of which is less likely to collapse.

A towel rack according to one aspect of the present invention includes a plurality of warp yarns extending in a longitudinal direction of the towel racket and a plurality of weft yarns extending in a width direction of the towel racket, and at least one yarn of the warp yarns and the weft yarns is made of a material containing polyester. The plurality of weft yarns are hardened , and the plurality of hardened weft yarns extend in the width direction of the towelette.

  In this towelette, at least one of the warp yarn and the weft yarn is made of a material containing polyester, and the one yarn is cured. Polyester is a material that is hard to wrinkle and has high strength. As described above, since at least one of the yarns is cured, the towelette as a whole can have elasticity. Since the towel rack has elasticity, it is possible to prevent the shape of the towel rack from collapsing, and thus it is possible to enhance the shape maintaining performance of the towel rack. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the towel blanket from clinging to the user's body and to prevent the user from feeling the heat even in the summer, so that the user can feel comfortable in sleeping.

  This towelette includes a plurality of pile yarns extending in the longitudinal direction of the towelette and protruding in the thickness direction of the towelette, and the pile yarns may be made of a material containing cotton. In this case, since the pile yarn projects in the thickness direction of the towel racket, the pile yarn can be brought into contact with the user's body. Since the pile yarn is made of a material containing cotton, the pile yarn has excellent dyeability and color developability, has high water absorption, and has a good texture. Therefore, when the pile thread comes into contact with the user's body, it is possible to provide the user with a good touch.

  This towelette includes a plurality of warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns, and a first region in which the pile yarns protrude, and a plurality of warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns, and a second region in which the pile yarns do not protrude, May be provided. In this case, the towelette is provided with a first region in which the pile yarn is projected and a second region in which the pile yarn is not projected. Therefore, the pile yarn in the first region contacts the user's body, and a space is formed between the second region and the user's body. Therefore, a space can be formed between the towel rack and the user's body when the towel rack is hung, so that the towel rack can be prevented from clinging to the body and the breathability can be further enhanced. By increasing the air permeability in this way, it is possible to make the user less likely to feel the heat.

In this cotton blanket, weft that has been cured. Since the plurality of hardened weft yarns extend in the width direction of the towel rack, the air permeability of the towel rack in the width direction can be further enhanced. Therefore, the air permeability can be further enhanced as compared with the case where the warp threads are cured. Therefore, it is possible to make the heat more difficult to feel, and it is possible to further improve the user's comfort in sleeping.

A method for manufacturing a towel rack according to one aspect of the present invention is a method for manufacturing a towel rack including a plurality of warp yarns and a plurality of weft yarns, wherein at least one of the warp yarns and the weft yarns is made of a material containing polyester. Of the warp yarn and the plurality of weft yarns to weave the towelette, a step of heat-treating the woven and woven towelette, and a step of desizing the heat-treated towelette, and the plurality of weft yarns are cured. And a plurality of cured weft threads extend in the width direction of the towelette.

  In this towelette manufacturing method, a towelette containing a thread made of a material containing polyester is heat-treated. A yarn made of a material containing polyester is softened and deformed when heat-treated to cause heat fusion. When the heat-bonded yarn is cooled after heating, the yarn hardens with the cooling. By thus curing the yarn containing polyester, it is possible to manufacture a towelette having elasticity. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the towel blanket from clinging to the user's body, which makes it possible to improve the user's comfort. In addition, the water absorption of the towelette can be enhanced by performing the desizing process. Since the heat treatment step is performed before the desizing step, it is possible to suppress the dryness and roughness of the towel blanket as compared with the case where the heat treatment is performed after the desizing step.

  Further, in the heat treatment step, the towel rack may be heated while the towel rack is pulled. In this case, by heating the towel rack in a pulled state, the shape maintenance performance of the towel rack by heat fusion can be further enhanced. That is, since the elasticity of the towel racket can be made stronger as compared with the case where the towel racket is heated without being pulled, the towel racket can be more difficult to cling to.

  In the heat treatment step, the towelette may be heated to 70 ° C or higher and 130 ° C or lower. In this case, the yarn made of the material containing polyester can be more surely and easily heat-sealed, and the yarn can be surely and easily cured.

  According to the towel blanket, the method for manufacturing a towel, and the towel according to the one aspect of the present invention, the shape of the towel can be prevented from collapsing.

  Embodiments of a towelette, a method for manufacturing a towelette, and a towel will be described below with reference to the drawings. In the description of the drawings, the same or corresponding elements will be denoted by the same reference symbols, without redundant description.

(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the towel rack 1 according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the towel rack 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the towelette 1 according to the present embodiment has a rectangular shape as a whole, and is used in the summer, for example. The towel blank 1 is provided with unevenness in a grid pattern.

  A plurality of warp yarns 2, a plurality of weft yarns 3, and a plurality of pile yarns 4 are woven in the towelette 1. Of the above-mentioned irregularities of the towelette 1, the convex portion is the first region R1 in which the pile yarn 4 projects, and the concave portion is the second region R2 in which the pile yarn 4 does not project. In addition, the outer edge of the towel blank 1 is a seam allowance R3 composed of only the warp threads 2 and the weft threads 3.

  The first region R1 and the second region R2 are provided on both the front and back of the towelette 1. The first region R1 and the second region R2 are, for example, both quadrangular and have the same shape and the same area. The first region R1 on the front side of the towel blank 1 is a second region R2 on the back side of the towel blank 1. That is, the surface opposite to the first region R1 where the pile yarn 4 projects is the second region R2 where the pile yarn 4 does not project.

  The first region R1 and the second region R2 are both arranged in a grid pattern, for example. The 1st field R1 and the 2nd field R2 are arranged by turns along with longitudinal direction D1 (longitudinal direction) of towelette 1. Specifically, in the longitudinal direction D1, one second region R2 is arranged between the two first regions R1 and one first region R1 is arranged between the two second regions R2. There is. Further, the first region R1 and the second region R2 are alternately arranged in the width direction D2 (lateral direction) of the towel blank 1, and in the width direction D2, one second region is provided between the two first regions R1. R2 is arranged, and one first region R1 is arranged between two second regions R2.

  FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically showing an arrangement of warp yarns 2, weft yarns 3 and pile yarns 4 woven as a towelette 1. As shown in FIG. 3, a plurality of weft threads 3 are arranged along the longitudinal direction D1. Two warp threads 2 pass above and below the plurality of weft threads 3. The pile yarn 4 projects in the thickness direction D3 of the towelette 1. The pile yarn 4 extends in the same direction as the warp yarn 2 (longitudinal direction D1) while being entwined with the weft yarn 3. For example, the pile yarn 4 straddles two weft yarns 3 in the protruding first region R1, and straddles one weft yarn 3 in the second region R2.

  FIG. 4 is a plan view schematically showing the arrangement of the warp threads 2 and the weft threads 3 in the towelette 1. FIG. 4A shows the warp yarn 2 and the weft yarn 3 before the heat treatment described later, and FIG. 4B shows the warp yarn 2 and the weft yarn 3 after the heat treatment. As shown in FIGS. 4 (a) and 4 (b), the warp threads 2 and the weft threads 3 intersect and design in the vertical and horizontal directions.

  The warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3, and the pile yarn 4 are, for example, twin yarns. As described above, the twine enables the towel blanket 1 to have a comfortable tension. The warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3, and the pile yarn 4 may be single yarns. The material of the warp yarn 2 and the material of the pile yarn 4 are both 100% cotton, for example. As a result, the warp yarn 2 and the pile yarn 4 are excellent in dyeability, have a good feel to the touch, and have a high water absorbency.

  On the other hand, the weft thread 3 is made of a material containing polyester, and is mainly made of polyester. As described above, the weft thread 3 whose main raw material is polyester has the property of being softened and deformed when heated, and being hardened when cooled thereafter. The towelette 1 utilizes the property that the weft thread 3 is cured. As a result, the weft threads 3 are harder than the warp threads 2 and the pile threads 4.

  The weft thread 3 is made of, for example, a blended material of polyester and a cellulosic material. As the cellulosic material forming the weft thread 3, for example, cotton is used. The ratio of polyester in the weft thread 3 is, for example, 50% or more and 100% or less. The proportion of polyester in the weft thread 3 is preferably 70% or more and 90% or less.

  When the polyester ratio of the weft yarn 3 is 70% or more, the weft yarn 3 can be more surely cured by heating and cooling. When the polyester ratio of the weft thread 3 is 90% or less, the weft thread 3 can be dyed more reliably. Further, when the polyester ratio of the weft yarn 3 is less than 90%, it is possible to more reliably prevent the polyester or the like from adhering to the spinning device that spins the weft yarn 3. Further, the ratio of polyester in the weft yarn 3 is more preferably 80% or more and less than 90%.

  By using the above weft yarn 3, in the towelette 1, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), the heat treated weft yarn 3 undergoes softening and deformation and is heat fused to the warp yarn 2, the pile yarn 4, and the like. And then hardens by being cooled. That is, the weft thread 3 is solidified after melting while maintaining its shape as a thread. As described above, the towelette 1 utilizes a phenomenon in which the weft threads 3 made of a mixed spinning material of polyester and cotton are thermally fused by heating and hardened by cooling. As a result, the towel blanket 1 is more elastic than the conventional towel blanket and has an excellent shape maintaining function.

  Next, a method for manufacturing the towelette 1 according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. The flowchart shown in FIG. 5 shows an example of a method for manufacturing the towelette 1, and the towelette 1 is woven from the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3 and the pile yarn 4, heat-treated, and after-treated to complete the towelette 1. I am letting you.

  First, as a preliminary step, each of the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3, and the pile yarn 4 (hereinafter, the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3, and the pile yarn 4 may be simply referred to as "thread") are spun. Then, the yarn is dyed and sized. Dyeing and sizing may be performed simultaneously, for example. The dyeing can also be performed after the weaving process described below.

  Then, the step of warping the yarn using the warping machine is executed (step S1). This warping step corresponds to a weaving preparation step. In step S1, the number of threads necessary for weaving the towelette 1 is wound around the Tyco reel with uniform tension and uniform width. Next, in order to install the yarn wound around the Tyco reel on the loom, rewinding for winding the yarn around the beam is executed (step S2). Then, the beam is installed on the loom, and a connecting step of connecting the threads wound on the beam to the threads of the loom one by one is executed (step S3).

  Then, the weaving process of weaving by the loom is executed (step S4). At this time, since the towelette 1 has the pile yarn 4, a weaving machine dedicated to towels is used as the weaving machine. The loom is, for example, an air jet loom. In this loom, the warp yarn 2 and the pile yarn 4 are moved up and down with respect to the weft yarn 3 to form a yarn path passing through the weft yarn 3, and the weft yarn 3 is run from one end to the other end of the loom. Then, the warp yarns 2 and the pile yarns 4 intersecting the weft yarns 3 are brought close to each other and driven. The warp yarns 2 and the pile yarns 4 move up and down based on preset data. For example, the warp yarns 2 and the pile yarns 4 are controlled one by one, and the towelette 1 having a complicated pattern is woven.

  Next, the step of heat-treating towelette 1 is executed (step S5). This heat treatment corresponds to a high temperature treatment for heating the towelette 1 so that the towelette 1 is elastic. In this heat treatment, the towelette 1 is heated to, for example, 70 ° C. or higher and 130 ° C. or lower, more preferably 100 ° C. or higher and 130 ° C. or lower. Further, it is preferable that the towel blanket 1 is heated for a time of 1 second or more and 60 seconds or less.

  Regarding the heating temperature of the towelette 1, 70 ° C. is a temperature at which the weft thread 3 can be softened and deformed. Further, 130 ° C. is the maximum temperature at which the towel rack 1 can be heated by a heating device such as the tenter 10 described later. Therefore, the towelette 1 may be heated at a temperature higher than 130 ° C.

  When the heating time of the towel blank 1 is 1 second or more, it is possible to reliably cause the heat fusion and the hardening of the weft thread 3. The towelette 1 may be heated for a time longer than 60 seconds. As described above, by heat-treating the towelette 1, the weft yarns 3 can be heat-sealed and cured, and the towelette 1 having elasticity can be manufactured.

  In the heat treatment, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, the towel rack 1 is passed through the tenter 10. In the tenter 10, the plurality of towel racks 1 are inserted in a line (in an integrated state) connected in a row in the traveling direction P1. The towel blank 1 enters the tenter 10 while being gripped by the gripping portions 11 provided at both ends in the width direction P2 orthogonal to the traveling direction P1, and is subjected to heat treatment in the tenter 10. The towel blanket 1 enters the tenter 10 while being pulled by the grips 11 at both ends in the width direction P2, and is heated to, for example, 100 ° C. or more and 130 ° C. or less in the state where the tenter 10 is in the tenter 10.

  After the heating process of the towel blank 1 is completed as described above, desizing of the towel blank 1 is executed (step S6). In the desizing, for example, the towel rack 1 is housed in a rotatable cylindrical or drum-shaped container, water is put in the container, and the towel rack 1 is rotated to wash off the paste of the towel rack 1.

  The desizing time is, for example, 30 minutes or more and 40 minutes or less, and the temperature of water used for desizing is 80 ° C. or more and 90 ° C. or less. By performing desizing in this manner, the texture of the pile yarn 4 and the like is enhanced and the water absorption of the towel blank 1 is enhanced. If the dyeing has not been performed in the pre-process before step S1, the towel blanket 1 may be dyed at this stage.

  Then, the towel rack 1 is dried (step S7). In drying the towelette 1, for example, the towelette 1 is hung at a high place and hot air is blown to the towelette 1. The time for drying the towelette 1 is, for example, several tens of minutes, and the temperature for drying the towelette 1 is about 70 ° C. However, the time for drying the towelette 1 and the temperature for drying the towelette 1 are appropriately changed according to the thickness of the towelette 1 and the like.

  After the towel blank 1 has been dried, the towel blank 1 is put into the tenter 10 again and the towel blank 1 is aligned (step S8). In order to arrange the towel rack 1, the towel rack 1 is put in the tenter 10 while the towel rack 1 is pulled by the grip portion 11 and the towel rack 1 is heated. By this heating, the width of the towel rack 1 is expanded, and the generation of wrinkles and shrinkage of the towel rack 1 is suppressed so that the shape of the towel rack 1 is adjusted. Similar to the above-mentioned heat treatment, the towel blank 1 is arranged using the tenter 10, but the temperature is lower than that during the heat treatment. Specifically, the temperature when the towel blank 1 is arranged is, for example, 70 ° C. or higher and 80 ° C. or lower.

  After finishing the realignment of the towel blanks 1 as described above, the towel blanks 1 are cut and cut into individual towel blanks 1, and then the towel blanks 1 are shipped after sewing, inspection, and needle inspection. Note that the meter reading is an operation performed carefully and multiple times, and is performed using, for example, a non-contact type meter that includes a belt on which the towel rack 1 is placed.

  Next, the function and effect obtained from the towelette 1 according to this embodiment will be described. In the towelette 1, the weft thread 3 is made of a material containing polyester, and the weft thread 3 is cured. As described above, since the weft thread 3 is hardened, the towelette 1 as a whole can have elasticity.

  Since the towelette 1 has elasticity, it is possible to prevent the shape of the towelette 1 from collapsing, so that the shape keeping performance of the towelette 1 can be improved. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the towel blanket 1 to cling to the user's body and make it difficult for the user to feel the heat even in the summer, so that the user's comfort in sleeping can be improved.

  The towelette 1 includes a plurality of pile yarns 4 that extend in the longitudinal direction D1 of the towelette 1 and project in the thickness direction D3 of the towelette 1, and the pile yarns 4 are made of a material including cotton. Therefore, since the pile yarn 4 projects in the thickness direction D3 of the towel rack 1, the pile yarn 4 can be brought into contact with the user's body. Further, since the pile yarn 4 is made of a material containing cotton, the pile yarn 4 has excellent dyeability and color developability, has high water absorption, and has a good texture. Therefore, when the pile thread 4 comes into contact with the user's body, it is possible to provide the user with a good touch.

  The towelette 1 includes a plurality of warp threads 2 and a plurality of weft threads 3, and includes a first region R1 in which the pile thread 4 projects, a plurality of warp threads 2 and a plurality of weft threads 3, and the pile thread 4 projects. And a second region R2 which is not provided. That is, the towelette 1 is provided with the first region R1 in which the pile yarn 4 is projected and the second region R2 in which the pile yarn 4 is not projected. Therefore, the pile yarn 4 in the first region R1 contacts the user's body, and a space is formed between the second region R2 and the user's body. Therefore, a space can be formed between the towelette 1 and the user's body in the state where the towelette 1 is hung, so that the towelette 1 is less likely to cling to the body and the breathability can be further enhanced. By increasing the air permeability in this way, it is possible to make the user less likely to feel the heat.

  In the towelette 1, the weft thread 3 is hardened. Therefore, since the plurality of cured weft threads 3 extend in the width direction D2 of the towel blank 1, the air permeability of the towel blank 1 in the width direction D2 can be further enhanced. Therefore, the air permeability can be further enhanced as compared with the case where the warp yarn 2 is cured. Therefore, it is possible to make it difficult for the user to feel the heat, and it is possible to further improve the sleeping comfort of the user.

  In the method for manufacturing the towelette 1 according to the present embodiment, the towelette 1 including the weft threads 3 made of the material including polyester is heat-treated. The weft thread 3 made of a material containing polyester is softened and deformed when heat-treated to cause heat fusion. When the heat-bonded yarn is cooled after heating, the yarn hardens with the cooling. By hardening the yarn containing polyester in this way, it is possible to manufacture the towelette 1 having elasticity.

  By providing the towel blank 1 with elasticity, it is possible to make the towel blank 1 less likely to cling to the body of the user, so that the comfort of the user can be improved. Further, in this manufacturing method, the water absorption of the towel blanket 1 can be enhanced by executing the step of removing the desizing (step S6). Then, since the heat treatment step (step S5) is executed before the desizing step, compared to the case where the heat treatment is performed after the desizing step, the towelette 1 is less dry and rough. Can be suppressed.

  Further, in the above heat treatment step, the towel rack 1 is heated while the towel rack 1 is pulled. Therefore, by heating the towel blank 1 in a pulled state, the shape maintaining performance of the towel blank 1 by heat fusion can be further enhanced. That is, since the elasticity of the towel blank 1 can be made stronger as compared with the case where the towel blank 1 is heated without being pulled, the towel blank 1 can be more difficult to cling.

  In the heat treatment step, the towel blanket 1 is heated to 70 ° C or higher and 130 ° C or lower. Therefore, the weft thread 3 made of a material containing polyester can be more reliably and easily heat-sealed, and the weft thread 3 can be reliably and easily cured.

  Moreover, in the manufacturing method of the present embodiment, the towel rack 1 is woven using a loom dedicated to towels. Therefore, the towelette 1 including the first region R1 in which the pile yarn 4 projects and the second region R2 in which the pile yarn 4 does not project can be efficiently woven. Further, in the manufacturing method of the present embodiment, the heat treatment step is performed by the general-purpose tenter 10. That is, although the tenter 10 is a general-purpose device used in the arranging step, in the present embodiment, the towel blank 1 is put in the general-purpose tenter 10 and heated to give the towel blank 1 elasticity. As described above, in the present embodiment, the general-purpose tenter 10 is used in order to fully exert the performance of the weft thread 3 whose main raw material is polyester. Therefore, the general-purpose tenter 10 is effectively used to provide the elastic towelette 1 Can be manufactured efficiently.

The towel 21 and the towel blank 1 differ from each other only in shape and size. In the following, description common to the towelette 1 will be omitted as appropriate.

  The towel 21 has, for example, a rectangular shape, and is used as daily necessities. The towel 21 includes the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3 and the pile yarn 4 shown in FIG. 2, and the arrangement manner of the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3 and the pile yarn 4 is the same as the warp yarn 2, the weft yarn 3 and the pile yarn 4 of the towel racket 1. It is similar to the arrangement mode. The towel 21 includes a plurality of warp yarns 2 extending in a first direction X1 which is an in-plane direction of the towel 21, a plurality of weft yarns 3 extending in a second direction X2 intersecting (orthogonal to) the first direction X1, and a thickness of the towel 21. And a plurality of pile threads 4 protruding in the vertical direction. The weft thread 3 is made of a material containing polyester and is cured by heating, as in the first embodiment. The method for manufacturing the towel 21 is the same as the method for manufacturing the towel rack 1.

  As described above, in the towel 21 according to the second embodiment, the weft thread 3 is made of a material containing polyester, and the weft thread 3 is cured. Therefore, as with the above-described towel blanket 1, since the weft threads 3 are hardened, the towel 21 as a whole can have elasticity. Since the towel 21 has elasticity, the shape maintaining performance of the towel 21 can be improved, and the shape of the towel 21 can be prevented from collapsing even if the towel 21 is repeatedly washed. Therefore, the life of the towel 21 can be extended.
