BLANKET.
Application filed March 20, 1926. Serial'No. 96,232.
This invention relates to blankets, and the object of the invention is to produce an improved blanket fabric which shall have.
a smooth woven finished surfa"e on one side and a napped surface on the reverse side. In the construction of fabrics of this type, it is usual to use a coarse yarn both for the face filling and the back filling, and to raise a nap on the surfaces by the usual proc- 1 ess of teaseling. Such a fabric is well adapted for general use, but is not suitable for certain special uses to which blankets are now put. Under modern conditions, a blanket may, for instance, be used as an automobile robe, or may be worn as a wrap at outdoor sporting events, and when so used, the ordinary blanket has the disadvantage of becoming quickly soiled, since particles of dirt cling to it readily, and is diflicult to clean on account of the penetration of dirt into its nap:
It is known to make a fabric having one smooth surface andportions of the reverse surface napped, but so far as applicant is aware, no fabric has as yet been successfully produced having one surface wholly napped in such degree as to be of a warmth and softness comparable to a double napped blanket, while yet having the reverse or face side presenting a smooth woven finished surface.
invention, and the blanket made thereby may, in addition to the. uses mentioned above, be advantageously used as a bedspread, top blanket, or comforter, since the smooth face may be of such texture and design as to be suitable for such use, While the napped back affords the warmth of an ordinary blanket, also tending to keep the blanket from slipping off the bed as an ordinary spread or quilt tends to do. The blanket of this invention possesses the additional advantage of being more easily washed than a quilted or stuffed comforter, because the soft and hard portions are woven in one piece.
These and other features of the invention will appear more fully in the following description when read in connection with the accompanying drawings, in which:
Fig. 1 is a perspective View of a blanket which embodies my invention;
Fig. 2 is a diagrammatic view showing the weave; and
Such a fabric is produced by the present Fig. 3 is a section takenon line 3.3 of Fig. 2.
Referring more particularly to the drawings, the numeral 1 represents the Warp threads, 2 represents the face filling threads or weft, and 3 represents the backv filling threads or weft. The fa "e filling threads are woven to lie mainly on the face of the fabric, and may be arranged to present any suitable pattern. In the specific weave shown, the face filling threads alternate with an equal number of back filling threads, but the weave may instead consist of a back filling thread'followed by two or more face filling threads, this latter modification giving a somewhat harder face and a lighter nap on the back.
It will be noted that the back filling threads pass over one warp thread, then under three warp threads, while the face filling threads pass over five warp threads, then under one, over one and under one, these cycles being repeated throughout the length of the weft.v This particular order may be varied, the. essential idea being to so expose the filling threads as to cover substantially the entire face of the blanket while forming a suitable pattern, and to expose the back filling threads to cover the back.
The back filling threads consist of coarse, V
heavy yarn of a type which lends itself to the teaseling, while the face filling threads consist of a finer, somewhat harder yarn of good wearing quality. After the blanket has been woven in the manner indicated, the
back surface is teaseled in any preferred manner to produce the nap 4:.
Having described my invention, what I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States is:
' face, the coarse yarn threads being floated under the warp and being teaseled and of such a character as to forma continuously napped warm blanket surface on the back of the spread.
