WOVEN ELASTIC FABRIC John V. Moore, Pawtucket,vR. I., as-signor t'o Moore Fabric Company, Pawtucket, R. I.,.a. corporation oi' Rhode Island Application March 3, 193s, serial No. 193,752
I or webbing in which the front and back pf the fabric have distinctively different characteristics.
It is the general object of my invention to pro- Avide a woven elastic fabric having a relatively .soft back and having a non-absorbent, hardfinish face adapted t receive asuitable. dressing by, which it may be caused to simulate leather.
It is a further object of my invention rto provide an elastic fabric having a face formed largely of non-absorbent hard-finish threads and having a v back formed largely of threads having a soft surface, such as rubber threads with a soft and relatively thick cotton covering or soft non-elastic threads.
My invention further relates to arrangements and combinations o1' parts which will be hereinafter described and more particularly pointed out in the appended claims.
Preferred embodiments of lmy invention are shown inthe drawings, in vwhich Fig. 1 is a plan view of a portion of a weave disclosing my invention;
Figs. 6 and `'l are sectional views, taken along the lines 6-6 and 1-1 in Fig. 5 respectively.
Referring to Figs. 1 to 4, I have shown face threads I0, backing threads II', and additional threads I2 which act as binders. The threads I0 which float on the face of the fabric and largely constitutes said face, are preferably non-elastic and of relatively large size, and have a hardfinish, water-repellent or non-absorbent surface.
Such a thread may be made of cotton or other libre and may be glazed or coated with lacquer to provide an outer surface having said characteristics. v
The threads II which largely constitute the back of the fabric are preferably formed with a rubber core and with a soft and relatively thick covering wound thereon. 'I'he additional threads I2 are non-elastic and are. preferably of relatively small Isize, in comparison with the threads I0 and I My improved fabric may be woven with the hard-finish threads I0 inserted as weft or lling and with the threads II and I2 used as warp, or the fabric may be woven by using the hard-finish threads I0 as warp and the threads II and I2 as weft or filling, in which latter case a double shuttle loom would be utilized. Y
In Figs. 5, 6 andl 7 I have shown a second emvsired light color.
bodlment of my invention in which the hardfinish face and soft back are both formed of nonelastic threads, all disposed in parallel relation in the fabric, while the rubbe'r threads, together with additional non-elastic threads, extend at right angles thereto and are interwoven'therewith. The hard-finish, non-elastic threads 20 and soft, non-elastic threads 2| extend in one direction in the fabric and the covered rubber threads 22 and relatively small non-elastic threads 23 extend transversely with respect to the threads 20 'and 2|.
The various .elements of the weave are so interwoven that the hardfinish threads 20 float on the face of the fabric andare held in place by certain of the small non-elastic threads' 23, which act as binders for the float threads. 'Ihe soft, non-elastic threads 2| float similarly on the back of the fabric and are also retained by others of the small non-elastic threads vor binders 23.
With this construction, the face of the fabric very largely comprises the hard-finish threads 20, while the back of the fabric is formed very largely from the soft threads 2 I. These two sets of threads 20 and 2| may differ not only in finish but also in color and material, so that the inner and outer faces of the fabric may be strongly contrasted as to color and material as well as in respect to the hardness or softness of finish. The face of the fabric, composed very largelyof the hard-finish threads 20, may be dressed to simulate leather as in the construction previously described.
In this second weave also, the face threads 20 and back threads 2| maybe either weftor'warp,
One essential characteristic of my improved fabric is the provision of a face formed largely of hard-finish and non-absorbent threads, thus providing a surface which is adapted to 'receive any suitable dressing and which will somewhat .closely simulate leather after said dressing is applied.
A further important characteristic of the invention is the provision of a relatively soft back,
` which particularly adapts the fabric to be used in footwear where a soft inner surface is desired. This inner surface may be in white or-in any de- It will be understood that `the weaves herein shown are presented for purposes of illustration 35 and the rubber threads 22 and small non-elastic l v Qweft threads having a coating which renders them only, and that the invention is not limited to a particular weave, so long as the described characteristics of the face and back of the fabric are retained.
Having thus described my invention and the advantages thereof, I do not wish to be limited to the details herein disclosed, otherwise than as set forth in the claims, but what I claim is:
1. A woven elastic fabric having the face thereof formed in largepart by brous hard-finish water-repellent and which are thereby adapted to receive a suitable dressing and simulate leather, and havingthe back thereof formed in large part by elastic warp threads having, a soft and relatively thick covering, and said fabric having addi- 'tional non-elastic and relatively small binder warp threads interposed between said elastic warp e threads.
