INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION FIELD The present invention relates to a method for producing a fiber-reinforced nonwoven fabric. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a high-strength fiber-reinforced nonwoven fabric that can be used for packaging materials, clothing, and the like. Conventional technology Conventionally, a web obtained by a carding method by blending heat-adhesive composite fibers with a low melting point layer on the surface,
It is known to produce a nonwoven fabric by thermally bonding the fibers by heat-treating the composite fiber at a temperature higher than the melting point of the low-melting point component and lower than the melting point of the high-melting point component, for example, using a hot air oven or a hot roll. Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in general, webs produced by the carding method tend to have fibers arranged in the running direction, resulting in extremely weak transverse strength of the resulting nonwoven fabric.
It is usually about 10% or less of the strength in the longitudinal direction. Therefore, the nonwoven fabric obtained by such a method is suitable for use as a skin material for disposable diapers and sanitary napkins, but it is not suitable for applications that require relatively strong packaging materials such as disposable clothing. Appropriate. In addition, as a reinforcement method for binder type non-woven fabrics, a method has been attempted in which the non-woven fabric is bonded with cold sand etc. using an adhesive and then dried, but this method requires an adhesive and an additional drying process. There is a problem of high cost. The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing method that can produce a nonwoven fabric that can be manufactured at low cost and has high strength, particularly in the transverse direction. Means for Solving the Problems The fiber-reinforced nonwoven fabric of the present invention comprises (a) 30 to 100% of heat-adhesive conjugate fibers and 0% of other fibers having a higher melting point than the low-melting-point component of the heat-adhesive conjugate fibers;
70% of the web by the carding method, (b) a first plate in a direction diagonal to the running direction of the web;
(c) arranging reinforcing fibers in a diagonal direction with respect to the running direction of the web so as to intersect with the first reinforcing fibers, and a second reinforcing fiber so as to overlap the first reinforcing fibers directly or via the web; (d) bonding the first and second reinforcing fibers and the constituent fibers of the web to each other by heat fusion, and bonding the constituent fibers of the web to each other by heat fusion; Its structural feature is to encourage people. The reinforcing fibers may be placed on the surface of the web or may be provided inside the web. Function In the fiber-reinforced nonwoven fabric of the present invention, the first reinforcing fibers and the second reinforcing fibers are arranged to cross each other.
The reinforcing fibers are thermally fused to the fibers constituting the web. For this reason, the reinforcing fibers are arranged in a so-called mesh pattern within the web, and the reinforcing fibers and the web are partially heat-sealed. Therefore, the reinforcing fibers can improve the strength of the nonwoven fabric, especially the strength in the transverse direction, without impairing the elasticity, flexibility, and texture of the nonwoven fabric as a whole. Furthermore, in the nonwoven fabric of the present invention, since the web contains thermoadhesive composite fibers, there is no need to use an adhesive to bond the reinforcing fibers and the web.
Moreover, no drying process is required. Therefore, it has the advantage of low manufacturing cost. EXAMPLES Next, the manufacturing method of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing one embodiment of a nonwoven fabric obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 and 3 are partially cutaway perspective views showing other embodiments of the nonwoven fabric obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention, respectively. It is a diagram. The nonwoven fabric 1 shown in FIG. 1 is a fabric in which reinforcing fibers 3a and 3b are arranged on the surface of a web 2 and heat treated. The reinforcing fibers 3a and 3b are a first reinforcing fiber 3a and a first reinforcing fiber arranged diagonally with respect to the running direction of the web 2 (direction of arrow A in FIG. 1) during carding or movement by a conveyor. 3
The second reinforcing fibers 3b are arranged obliquely to the running direction of the web 2 so as to intersect with the second reinforcing fibers 3b. The first reinforcing fibers 3a and the second reinforcing fibers 3b may be of the same type or may be of different types. In the nonwoven fabric 4 shown in FIG. 2, first and second reinforcing fibers 3a and 3b are arranged inside the web 2 so as to cross each other. In the nonwoven fabric 5 shown in FIG. 3, the first reinforcing fibers 3a and the second reinforcing fibers 3b are
located in different parts of the interior. In each of the nonwoven fabrics shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the web 2 and the reinforcing fibers 3a, 3b are partially fused to each other. The heat-adhesive composite fiber in the present invention has a core made of a resin with a high melting point, and a resin layer with a low melting point on the surface layer. It refers to fibers that can be bonded to each other or to other fibers by heating. In addition, non-thermal adhesiveness means a property that does not exhibit adhesiveness at a temperature at which the thermally adhesive conjugate fiber exhibits adhesiveness. The heat-adhesive composite fiber is a double fiber whose core is made of a synthetic resin with a high melting point such as polypropylene or polyester, and whose surface layer is provided with a synthetic resin layer with a low melting point such as polyethylene or ethylene-acetic acid bicopolymer. Heavy structure fibers (e.g. Chitsuso Co., Ltd.)
Product name: ES fiber manufactured by Daiwabo Co., Ltd. Product name: NBF manufactured by Daiwabo Co., Ltd.
etc.). In addition to the heat-adhesive conjugate fibers, the web in the present invention contains other fibers such as synthetic fibers such as polyester, nylon, and polypropylene, or chemical fibers such as rayon and acetate.
It may be blended within the range of 70% (weight %, same hereinafter). Note that when the amount of heat-bondable conjugate fibers is less than 30%, the number of heat-bonding points between fibers decreases, resulting in a decrease in the strength of the nonwoven fabric. As the reinforcing fiber in the present invention, any fibrous or thread-like material can be used as long as it has high strength, is longer than the length of the web in the diagonal direction, and has good adhesiveness to the heat-adhesive composite fiber. As the reinforcing fibers, single yarns such as spun yarns made of natural or compound fibers or filament yarns of compound fibers, or twisted yarns thereof can be used. Next, the method for manufacturing the fiber-reinforced nonwoven fabric of the present invention will be explained with reference to Examples. Examples 1 to 3 Double-structured composite heat-adhesive composite fibers containing polypropylene as a high melting point component and polyethylene as a low melting point component and rayon 2d x 51 mm were mixed and 25 g/m was prepared by a carding method. I got 2 webs.
Next, I added 40 count (cotton count) rayon to this item.
As shown in Figure 1, 100% spun yarn (single yarn strength 309 g) was arranged at approximately 25 mm intervals so that each yarn had an inclination of 70 degrees to the running direction of the web, and was heated to 135°C.
The nonwoven fabrics of Examples 1 to 3 were produced by heat treatment using a heat roll of 60 kg/cm. Table 1 shows the measurement results of the strength in the longitudinal direction and the strength in the transverse direction of the nonwoven fabrics of Examples 1 to 3. Note that the first
The strength shown in the table is the value obtained by cutting a rectangular specimen with a width of 5 cm and a length of 20 cm, and tensile measurement using an Instron testing machine at a constant speed of 100 mm/min with a test length of 10 cm. For comparison, the tensile strength of only the nonwoven fabric is also shown.

[Table] Effects of the invention As mentioned above, the nonwoven fabric obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention has extremely high strength, especially in the transverse direction, compared to conventional fabrics, and is mainly composed of conventional heat-adhesive conjugate fibers. Since the reinforcing fibers can be fixed to the web at the same time during the heat treatment process of the nonwoven fabric, a remarkable effect is achieved in that the manufacturing cost is low.
