Abstract

PURPOSE:To change the color of fabric into a different chromatic color and further the whole lightness and saturation and tone the fabric by making the original hue remain without changing the hue and changing the lightness of an achromatic color while maintaining the individual chromatic colors. CONSTITUTION:(A) At least one chromatically colored yarn and (B) at least one achromatic yarn and yarn of color nearly close to the achromatic color are combined to keep independent small regions of the aforementioned respective yarns and form a structure in which the respective small regions are homogeneously mixed and dispersed. Thereby, lightness of the achromatically colored yarn or the yarn of the color nearly close to the achromatic color is chanted to tone fabric.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method of color-adjusting a cloth and a color-adjusted cloth, and is an invention which enables toning a wide range of colors with a yarn having a limited color.

Further, the present invention is a particularly useful invention in interior fabrics because the toned color can visually perceive the color of a portion several meters or more away from the human viewpoint as a three-dimensional color.

[0003]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, for coloring fabrics, there is a method of adjusting the hue, lightness, and saturation to be obtained by dyeing (cotton dyeing, thread dyeing), anti-dying, or a dyeing method. It is common.

However, the conventional color matching method is a method based on color mixing, and the color obtained is unstable due to the mixing error of the dyes and pigments and the dyeing state of the dyes, and it is particularly difficult to control the brightness and saturation. The colored color was flat and monotonous.

Further, as a conventional method for adjusting the color of a cloth, a mixture of chromatic color fibers and chromatic color fibers or achromatic color fibers (Fiber Vertex method) is known, but in this method, chromatic color fibers or non-colored fibers are mixed. Colored fibers The hues of the fibers mixed without leaving the individual colors change, and the fibers are felt to have different colors.

[0006]

The object of the present invention is to change the chromaticity by changing the lightness of the achromatic color while keeping the original hue without changing the hue and maintaining the original chromatic color. Change to different colors, overall brightness,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a toning method for a fabric capable of changing saturation and a fabric toned by this method.

[0007]

A first aspect of the present invention is a combination of at least one chromatic color yarn and at least one type of achromatic color yarn and almost achromatic color yarn. The present invention relates to a toning method for a fabric, which retains areas and forms a structure in which each small area is uniformly mixed and dispersed, and changes the brightness of an achromatic thread or an almost achromatic thread.

A second aspect of the present invention is to maintain an independent small area of each yarn by combining at least one kind of chromatic color thread and at least one kind of achromatic color thread and almost achromatic color thread. In addition, the present invention relates to a toned fabric characterized in that a texture in which the respective small regions are mixed and dispersed without being localized is formed.

According to the present invention, a color-adjusting method for a cloth and a color-adjusting method by which the uniform color expression can be achieved by mixing and dispersing the colored yarns constituting the cloth while maintaining small areas respectively. The cloth enables three-dimensional color expression as compared with the flat and monotonous color obtained by the conventional method.

In the present invention, the small area held by each yarn can be perceived as a color mixture of individual colors as the viewpoint moves away, and the individual colors can be clearly identified as the viewpoint approaches. It is a region of area or volume that can be identified, and it is difficult to quantify it because the identifiable position differs depending on the size of the small region and individual differences.

In the present invention, by using two or more chromatic colors and / or two or more achromatic colors, more varied expressions can be achieved, and the surface area ratio or volume ratio of the small regions can be increased. By changing the color, an arbitrary variety of colors can be obtained. In the present invention, an achromatic color has only lightness, has no saturation and no hue, and is white, black, or gray, but a color that is almost achromatic is a range of saturation 0 to 2 specified in JIS Z8721. It is defined as a color with a hue of.

It is possible to express a deeper color by combining the above-mentioned almost achromatic color threads.

The method for forming a fabric according to the present invention is a yarn in which each colored yarn is combined by a method such as a ply twist or a single twist so that a small region of each color is held in a heavier tone, or an air entanglement. A method of forming a fabric by using yarns that retain small areas of each color by applying interlace by the method and combining yarns. Various colored tufting (crossover, high-low, mixed woven straight, etc.) for each colored yarn, A method of forming a cloth by uniformly mixing and dispersing small areas of independent colors by a weaving method such as plain weave, twill weave, satin weave, and various kinds of knitting is shown.

A description will be given below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a chromatic hue reference chart. Threads of an arbitrary hue are selected from the reference table of FIG. 1 and chromatic color threads of arbitrary brightness and saturation are selected.

FIG. 2 shows a chromatic color cloth used in the present invention.
B is a chromatic color used in the present invention, and 1 is a cloth made of yarn of that color.

3 and 4 show the organization charts of the toned fabric of the present invention. In Fig. 3, chromatic color a and achromatic color b are 1: 1.
Which is different from that of the cloth 1, a cloth 2 having a lightness and saturation different from that of the cloth 1 is obtained. Note that the chromatic color and the achromatic color can be set at an arbitrary ratio.

In FIG. 4, when the volume ratio of the chromatic color a, the achromatic color c having a relatively high lightness and the achromatic color d having a relatively low lightness is set to a ratio of a: b: c = 2: 1: 1, for example. Further, a cloth 3 having a three-dimensional color is obtained, and this color is the lightness of the chromatic color a obtained by the conventional dyeing method shown in FIG.
At first glance, the colors are almost the same as those of the cloth 4 of different color saturation, but the cloths of FIGS. 3 and 4 have a small area where the highly saturated chromatic color B can be visually confirmed. It remains in the inside, and this brings about a three-dimensional color.

On the other hand, in the cloth dyed by the conventional method shown in FIG. 5, the color a shown in FIG. 2 remains a single color in the tissue and becomes a monotone and flat color. still,
The present invention is a combination of at least one of a chromatic color thread, an achromatic color thread, and a thread that is almost achromatic, and even achromatic colors may be used. By the above-mentioned method, the color of the cloth can be adjusted by changing the lightness of the achromatic color yarn having a small area independent from the chromatic color yarn and the yarn of the color almost achromatic color. By combining the chromatic color thread as a main component and the achromatic color thread or the like in an arbitrary ratio, the color can be adjusted over a wider range.

In the present invention, the chromatic color, the achromatic color, and the threads close to the achromatic color each have independent small areas, and the small areas are uniformly mixed and dispersed to form a fabric having the structure described above. Colors are recognized independently of each other, and a cloth having a three-dimensional effect is obtained. In particular, for a chromatic color thread of a specific hue, an achromatic color thread, a thread of a color very close to the achromatic color is combined at an arbitrary ratio, and by changing the brightness of the achromatic color thread, a thread of a color extremely close to the achromatic color, A three-dimensional color can be toned over a wider range.

The toned fabric of the present invention is used for various decorations, and is particularly useful as an interior material for carpets, curtains and the like.

【Example】

Example 1 Munsell value 5G5 / 1 defined in JIS Z8721
1 types of chromatic color and achromatic color A (Munsell value N5.5) with higher brightness than chromatic color and achromatic color B (Munsell value N4.5) with lower brightness than chromatic color. The nylon filament yarn was interlaced at a volume ratio of 2: 1: 1 by an air entanglement method to form a pile yarn for tufting. This pile yarn is tufted on a primary base fabric using a tufting machine for level loops, and then the back surface is sealed with a resin to make a pile fabric of a three-dimensional color with a apparent Munsell value of 5G5 / 6 green. Got Hereinafter, this cloth is referred to as a standard product.

Examples 2 to 4 The chromatic color yarn used for the standard product and the achromatic color yarn A shown in Table 1,
A pile fabric was obtained using B in the same manner as in Example 1. All of Examples 2 to 4 were pile fabrics of 5G5 / 6 green color at first glance, but were pile fabrics that could be perceived to have a more three-dimensional color than the standard product due to the lightness contrast of the achromatic yarn.

Examples 5 to 8 The achromatic color yarn A used in Examples 1 to 4 was the same as Example 1 except that the achromatic color yarn A'having a slightly yellowish hue as shown in Table 2 was used. A pile fabric was obtained by the same method. Each of the obtained pile fabrics was a pile fabric having a color slightly changed to a warm color hue, and the three-dimensional appearance of the color was almost the same as in Examples 1 to 4.

Examples 9 to 12 A pile fabric was obtained in the same manner as in Example 1 except that the achromatic yarns A and B used in Example 1 (standard product) were changed as shown in Table 3. It was confirmed that Examples 9 and 10 visually felt the chromatic color to be slightly weaker than Example 1 (standard product), and Examples 11 and 12 slightly felt to be strong.

By uniformly mixing and dispersing the specified color and the achromatic color while maintaining independent small areas, the specified color can be adjusted in a wide range of colors. Since the fabric toned according to the present invention can be visually perceived as a fabric having a three-dimensional color at a position several meters or more away from the viewpoint, it is possible to obtain particularly excellent designability as an interior material such as a carpet and a curtain. Was given. The toning method of the present invention can independently control the size of the small area of each color, the distribution ratio of each color, and the brightness of an achromatic color. In the toning method of the present invention, when a chromatic color and one or more kinds of achromatic colors are mixed and dispersed, it is possible to slightly change the hue by giving a slight hue to the achromatic color. It is also weak to make the achromatic color mixed and dispersed have a higher lightness or lower lightness than the chromatic color, or to use the achromatic color of both high and low lightness to make the mixed and dispersed chromatic color visually stronger. I was able to let you do it.
