1 Claim.
This invention relates to an improved method for Weaving fabric particularly fabrics used for blankets.
The primary object of this invention is to provide a fabric to be used as a blanket having maximum warmth qualities with a minimum Weight fabric.
A further object of this invention is to provide a fabric capable for use as a blanket having a series of longitudinal and transverse air spaces for allowing the circulation of air in the blanket and providing dead air spaces for the prevention of air passage through the blanket. A further object of this invention is to provide a fabric constructed of wool warp and weft threads separated at spaced intervals by a series of worsted Warp and weft threads so that the long staple of the wool threads may be gigged and napped and thereafter matted to form a continuous outer smooth surface and providing air spaces above the worsted threads covered by the long staple of the wool threads.
A still further object of this invention is to so construct a fabric particularly intended for blankets having transverse and longitudinal air chambers and cells whereby circulation of air may continuously pass through the blanket or fabric from end to end and side to side due to the series of spaced warp and weft worsted threads having a comparatively smooth surface and presenting practically no obstruction to retard thepassage of air in the blanket.
A still further object of this invention is to provide a fabric for a blanket at low cost, resulting from the use of material of low cost by the reduction of wool yarn in the warp and weft.
Other objects and advantages of the invention will become apparent during the course of the following description read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings wherein,
Figure 1 is a plan view of the blanket illustrating in dotted lines the location of the worsted warp and weft threads arranged at spaced intervals through the length and breadth of the woolen warp and weft threads.
Figure 2 is a perspective View of the blanket illustrating a portion thereof unnapped to disclose the chain weave and the manner in which the worsted warp and weft threads are incorporated in the wool warp and weft threads, and
Figure 3 is a cross-sectional View of a portion of a blanket adjacent one of the cellular areas formed by the worsted threads.
In the drawings, wherein for the purpose of illustrating the invention and wherein like reference characters will be employed to designate like parts through the same, the reference character 5 will generally be employed to designate a blanket formed of a fabric composed of wool warp threads 6 interwoven with woolen weft threads 1 in the usual manner as by, chain Weaving. Y
'Ihe staple of the material from which the Warp and weft threads 6 and 1 are formed is comparatively long and the latter may be easily matted together after being napped and gigged.
The invention comprises the incorporation of worsted warp and weft threads 8 and 9 at spaced intervals in the wool Warp and weft threads 6 and 'I the staple of the worsted threads 8 and 9 being comparatively short and not easily napped. In weaving the blanket, a series of worsted warp and weft threads 8 and 9 may be arranged at equi-distant points in the fabric and may include any desired number of strands of worsted so that the nap raised from the wool threads may cover the worsted threads and form air chambers or passages I0 through the blanket extending the full length and breadth thereof. The wool warp and weft threads 6 and 1 are napped as shown at I l over the worsted threads 8 and 9 as clearly shown in Figure 3 and due to the fact that the worsted threads 8 and 9 are smooth surfaced the napping thereof is limited for the presentation of a cellular structure throughout the length and breadth of the blanket along the course of the worsted threads.
The selvedge edge of the fabric may be covered with marginal strips of fabric such as silk or satin I2 to add to the appearance and present an article which is pleasing to the aesthetic sense.
It is to be understood that any desired number of worsted threads may be usedat spaced intervals throughout the warp and weft of the in lieu of the aforesaid long staple threads, the
wool warp and weft threads being napped and felted to confine the worsted threads whereby transverse and longitudinal areas of less density constituting air passages are formed in the blanket between the worsted threads and the napped and felted woolen threads.
