Definitions

  • the object of the present invention is a new textile structure and a process for manufacturing the same.
  • Said textile material may constitute a finished or an intermediate product, and may be used alone, or impregnated or associated with different fiuid or sheet materials, and may be subjected to thermal and mechanical treatments, but all the operations pertaining to the utilization of the said material are not a part of the invention and may be accomplished by methods and means known in the art.
  • the process which is an object of this invention is characterized in that the filaments or yarns are arranged in the desired straight and undulating paths in mutual crossing relation and are set in their respective configurations and mutual positioned relationship.
  • a plurality of sets of yarns are continuously advanced in one direction, that concurrently there is imparted to a part of said sets of yarns an alternating rectilinear motion in a direction substantially perpendicular to said advancing direction and in one or more planes fixed in space, that a pressure is applied to all sets of yarns along a line fixed in space, substantially perpendicular to the aforementioned advancing direction, and displaced forwards in the aforementioned advancing direction with respect to the aforesaid fixed plane or planes, and that concurrently with the application of pressure or successively, the sets of yarns to which the aforementioned motions have been imparted, are set in their resulting undulated paths and positioned relationship with one another and with the other yarns.
  • Said paths are substantially sinusoidal. Their shape and amplitude depend on the amplitude and speed of the alternative motion and of the advancing 3,095,338 Patented June 25, 1963 motion. Pressure, heat, or adhesives, separately or jointly, ma be used to set the yarns in their paths.
  • the yarns are advanced by the same means which apply pressure to the yarns.
  • the yarns are gripped between two surfaces tangent to one another, for example cylindrical or partly cylindrical and partly plane surfaces, which surfaces at the point at which they are tangent, move in the direction and with the speed required to advance the yarns.
  • Yarns of any nature are suitable for carrying out the invention, for instance: cotton, waste silk, flax, jute, wool and other natural short fibres; artificial and synthetic short fibres, such as spun viscose, spun acetate, polyamide, polyester, acryl, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl chloride and vinyl copolymer fibres, and olefinic fibres, such as polyethylene and polypropylene; natural continuous filaments and filament yarns, such as silk, artificial continuous filaments and filament yarns, such as viscose rayon and cellulose acetate, and synthetic continuous filaments and filament yarns of the same classes as the synthetic fibres above listed; and inorganic yarns, such as glass yarns.
  • artificial and synthetic short fibres such as spun viscose, spun acetate, polyamide, polyester, acryl, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl chloride and vinyl copolymer fibres, and olefinic fibres, such as polyethylene and polypropylene
  • natural continuous filaments and filament yarns
  • any known adhesive may be employed, such as for instance rubber latex adhesive; epoxide polyester resins and vinyl resins; natural gums and glues both vegetable and animal, and so on.
  • FIGURES 1 and 1 which integrate each other, diagrammatically illustrate in vertical view, the operation of an embodiment of the invention
  • FIG. 2 is a plan View of FIG. 1
  • FIGURES 3 and 4 illustrate the formation of the textile structure
  • FIGURES 5 and 6 illustrate, in a manner analogous to FIGURES 1 1 and 2, another embodiment.
  • the yarns are divided into four sets, and precisely, two sets 11 and 12, which unwind from cones or loom beams ll and 12 (loom beams being shown in the drawing) and two sets 13 and 14 unwinding from cones 13 and 14'.
  • Yarns 11 and 12 pass through two stationary combs 15 and 15', and yarns 13 and 14 pass through movable combs 16 and 16.
  • Said combs 16 and 16' have an alternating motion in the direction indicated by the arrows in FIG. 2, which is imparted thereto by actuating means schematically indicated as wheels and connecting rods '17 and 17, but which may be of any structure, and said combs respectively engage groups of yarns l3 and 14 to which they impart an alternating motion.
  • Yarn groups 11 and 12 which pass through combs 15 and 15' have a straight rectilinear motion. For this reason the yarns 11 and 12 will be called warp yarns and the movable yarns 13 and 14 will be called weft yarns. Since the upper yarns 11 (with reference to FIG- URES 1 and 1 of the warp are displaced with respect to the lower yarns 12, and the Weft yarns 13- and 14 pass between the two groups, when all the yarns are gripped by the rolling mill 13 and 18', they are crushed so that the weft yarns become engaged as illustrated in FIGURES 3 and 4. The cylinders 13* and 18' of the rolling mills rotate in the direction marked by the arrows and advance the yarns at the desired speed.
  • the actuating means of cylinders 18, 18' may be of any nature and are not shown.
  • the cylinders besides pressing and drawing the yarns, also serve to apply an adhesive material by any suitable device, for instance by means of a trough 1-9 arranged below cylinder 18', which latter dips into the adhesive.
  • the adhesive may be applied by means of cylinders 2i and 2 0, in all those cases in Which this is preferred to avoid incrustation of the cylinders 18, 18', especially when the combs are placed very close to the cylinders, as it is normally preferable.
  • the two yarn sets 13 and 14 become laid out on undulating paths, approximately shaped as sinusoids, the amplitude and shape of Which depends on the amplitude of the stroke of the combs, the frequency of the alternating motion of the combs and the peripheralspeed of the cylinders 18, 18.
  • the alternating motions of the combs are so controlled that their speeds are at any moment equal and opposite.
  • the two combs are arranged one above the other, or more exactly are displaced one with respect to the other in a direction which is perpendicular both to the advancing direction of the yarns and to the direction of their alternating motion.
  • an oven 23 which is preferably rectilinear and may be a hot air, radiation, or dielectric loss oven, or an oven of different construction.
  • Rolling mill 24 is not described as it is a normal textile rolling mill, provided with one or more paper-coated cylinders, alternating with steel cylinders.
  • the temperatures of the cylinders of the rolling mill are between 100 C, and 110 C. if a rubber latex adhesive is used, and between 120 C. and 140 C. if a synthetic resin adhesive is used.
  • the textile material is wound on beams 26, 26 after passing through a reserve 25 which msures that there is the time to pass from one to the other beam in winding up the material.
  • the yarns are mutually set in their straight or undulating crossing paths and there is obtained a textile structure or nonwoven fabric, which is the object of the invention, and is Well visible in FIG. 2.
  • the four yarn sets lie on four different planes, but in practice, because of the pressure to which they have been subjected, they tend to bend the one around the other, departing from these respective planes, and creating almost a weave between the various yarns which greatly increases the resistance of the textile structure.
  • the advancing speed is 20 metres per minute.
  • the frequency of the alternating motion of the combs is 460 periods per minute and the amplitude of this alternating motion is 4 centimetres.
  • the total number of yarns is not specified because it is proportioned to the width of the finished article.
  • cylinders 13, 18' and 20, 20' are not heated.
  • the counts hereinbefore specified yield a structure having a good strength in both directions. However, if resistance in one direction, for instance, that of the warp, is most desired, the count of the yarns in the other direction will be suitably decreased, and/ or their spacing will be increased.
  • a vinyl acetate resin in emulsion, plastified in a greater or lesser measure with butyl phthalate, according to the desired rigidity is used.
  • a purer or lightly plastified resin for instance with -15% of plastifier on the dry resin
  • a soft hand is obtained by using up to 50% of plastifier on the dry resin.
  • the dilution of the adhesive baths should be regulated in such a way as to provide a sufiicient amount of dry adhesive on the yarn to give a perfect bonding, while at the same time permitting the processing operation to be carried out without incrusting the cylinders.
  • the amount of dry resin should not exceed 3035% of the weight of the yarn, and with rubber latices it should not exceed 45-50%.
  • the two adhesive types mentioned hereinbefore are the most characteristic.
  • the first imparts to the fabric a stiff, semi-stiff or soft hand (depending on the amount of plastifier used) with a slow elastic recovery.
  • the second provides an elastic finishing with a resilient hand. More or less resilient hand may be obtained by suitable mixtures of vinyl acetate resins and rubber latex; in any case the pH of the vinyl acetate resins should be alkaline.
  • Vinyl acetate resins may be mixed with many other additives, stabilizers, fillers, waterproofing and creaseproofing agents (of the urea-formaldehyde or melamineformaldehyde type, and so on).
  • additives such as the urea-formaldehyde or melamineformaldehyde type, and so on.
  • the equipment does not vary except in the cases in which the resin must be polymerized, or a natural or synthetic polymer must be gelatinized or vulcanized.
  • a polymerization, gelatinization or vulcanization chamber will be provided, and the chamber will have such a length and will be kept at such a temperature as a person skilled in the art may know to be required forthe particular material used.
  • acrylic resins which are employed similarly to the vinyl acetate resins, have been found to be particularly useful to obtain a brilliant finish, resistance to washing, stability and elasticity.
  • Short fibre yarns and particularly cotton and spun acetate, are particularly similar to spun viscose yarns, and therefore may be processed without any variation of the example described.
  • Other natural and synthetic short fibre yarns may be processed in a like manner.
  • viscose rayon and other artificial and synthetic continuous filament yarns may also be used.
  • the following criteria which are valid in general, are employed to determine the advancing speed of the yarns, which is equal to the speed at which the non-woven fabric is manufactured and also to the translational speed of the warp.
  • the speed of manufacture of the article depends, from the mechanical viewpoint, on the number of bends which it is desired to create and from the resistance of the yarn in view of the frequency of the alternating motion of the comb or combs.
  • the frequencies tolerated by the yarn in the alternating motion of the comb are generally in the order of 600/800 strokes per minute. Higher frequencies are possible with high strength yarns.
  • the greater the amplitude of the stroke of the combs, and therefore the amplitude of the sinusoids the smaller is the tolerable frequency.
  • yarns having a softening point sufi'iciently low that they may be caused to adhere by softening or incipient fusion through the application of pressure and heat.
  • Such yarns are those made of polyvinyl chloride or other vinyl polymers, such as Saran (vinyl chloride-vinylidene chloride copolymer), vinyl acetate yarns and polyolephinic yarns, such as polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • Saran vinyl chloride-vinylidene chloride copolymer
  • vinyl acetate yarns such as polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • polyolephinic yarns such as polyethylene and polypropylene.
  • an adhesive may be used or omitted.
  • the cylinders 20 and 20' will be heated at a temperature sufiicient to soften the yarns and provoke their adhesion.
  • an adhesive may be employed, this may be distributed on cylinders 20, 20 which, in that case, may also be heated, or may be non-heated, and the final bonding of the yarns is effected by the rolling mill 24, which causes the yarns to soften and adhere the ones to the others, and further causes the adhesive to harden and/or polymerize, if an adhesive has been used.
  • the advancing speed is 2.5 metres per minute.
  • the frequency of the alternating motion of the combs is 600 periods per minute and its amplitude is 3 cms. It is possible to operate without an adhesive, imparting to cylinders 20, 20' a temperature of 120 C. to obtain an incipient softening of the yarns, and complete the bonding on the rolling mill 24, the cylinders of which are heated to 130 C.
  • FIGURES 5 and 6 illustrate a further embodiment of the invention in which two wefts and a single warp are employed.
  • the wefts are indicated at 30 and 31 (the cones or beams from which they unroll are omitted) and the warp at 32.
  • Combs 33, 33 impart to the wefts their alternating motion whereas the comb 32 guides said warp 32.
  • the adhesive is applied directly on heated cylinders 35, 35 by means of reservoirs 36, 36 and spreaders 37, 37.
  • the temporarily set textile structure 38 passes between the rolling mill cylinders 39, 39, which are also heated, and which transform it into the final structure 40.
  • each weft a nylon yarn having a count of 2/ 70,000 and in the number of 6 yarns per cm. of width, and for the warp a like yarn having a count of 2/ 70,000 in the number of 6 yarns per cm. of width.
  • the advancing speed is 18-20 metres per minute.
  • the frequency of 6 the alternating motion of the combs is 600 blows per minute, and its amplitude is 40 mm.
  • the temperature of cylinders 35, 35 is that of the ambient and that of cylinders 39, 39' is C.; if a synthetic resin adhesive is used, the said temperature becomes of 125-140 C.
  • FIGURES 5 and 6 may also be carried into practice by using any of yarns mentioned in the general part of this description.
  • any sheet materials may be coupled with the textile structure by causing it to pass between the rolling mill cylinders 20, 20 or in rolling mill 24, according to the characteristics of the sheet.
  • the operations relating to the utilization of the textile structure produced, such as for instance impregnation, may be carried out continuously without first winding up the non-woven fabric.
  • thermal treatments and the application of pressure may be repeated or may take place in two or more phases.
  • Other variations which may be effected by a person skilled in the art, are within the scope of the invention which has as its object a new and useful textile structure and a process for its manufacture.
