Definitions
- the present invention relates to a heat insulating, quilted fabric material for articles of clothing and for use as sheets or undersheets or as furniture cover.
- the invention is based on the recognition that as a heat insulating layer in a fabric material it is advan ⁇ tageous to make use of a material, which is already well known for heat insulation in an entirely different area, viz. in the building industry.
- the particular material is a thin web material consisting of expanded poly ⁇ styrene, which, with a thickness of only some 1-1.5 mm, is well suited for mounting on walls, which will thereby get a finer surface.
- the expanded poly- styrol is not exactly a flexible material, but in such thin webs or plates it is highly flexible such that it may well be rolled together and also be brought to fol ⁇ low irregularities in a wall surface.
- the material is cheap and environmentally fully acceptable, and it is produced as a non-inflammable material.
- the material is not immediately well suited for clothing or for furniture covering, because it has a relatively low ultimate strength, but when it is incor ⁇ porated in a quilted web together with layers of low stretchability it can well be stabilized to such a degree that it is fully applicable for the said pur ⁇ poses. It may even be entirely crumpled up, and even though by strong affections it may be broken locally, viz. in the binding areas between the cellular grain platelets, of which it consists, then this will be with ⁇ out real importance, because the platelets will remain in their places inside the quilting segments. Moreover, the material will not be broken everywhere, i.e.
- a layer of quilting cotton will be quite advantageous as a separation layer, since despite a frictional engagement with both of the adjoin ⁇ ing layers it will willingly allow for such mutual dis ⁇ placements between the layers that will occur by local bendings of the web material as a whole, and also be ⁇ cause it shows the said effect of retaining occurring broken areas of the polystyrene layers in their respec ⁇ tive places; this effect will be double sided, as it will be obtained towards both of the polystyrene layers.
- the polystyrene layers will allow for a free 'breathing' of the material, but nevertheless they are suitably closed such that they can well be designated 'wind proof, which will highly suit the desirable characteristics of materials used in the garment indu ⁇ stry.
- 'wind proof an occurring layer of quilting cotton between two polystyrene layers will per se provide for a maximum insulation effect.
- poly ⁇ styrene layers will not give rise to any kind of troubles in connection with the quilting sewing.
- the material expanded polystyrene has not exactly been de ⁇ veloped for being sewn in, but no needle wear nor other problems by the quilting stitching have been observed, and with commonly applied stitch lengths there occurs no resulting overcutting of the polystyrene layers, e.i. the layers are coherent across the stitchings. It would hardly make any real difference, should the layers be divided along the stitchings, as each of the quilting areas would still be filled out by the material layers, but the coherence of the layers contributes to a good stability of the product.
- Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the piece of fabric.
- Fig. 2 is an enlarged sectional view thereof,
- Fig. 3 is an enlarged perspective view of an ap ⁇ plied insertion of expanded polystyrene in the fabric material
- Fig. 4 is a perspective view illustrating a bed quilt according to the invention.
- the fabric piece shown in Fig. 1 is made of a lower or inner fabric layer 2 of Vlieseline or a correspond ⁇ ingly open and non-stretchable, thin web and a following layer 4 of a thin plate material of expanded poly ⁇ styrene, e.g. 1.5 mm thick, then a layer 6 of open quilting cotton, in free condition some 4-5 mm thick, and on that another thin plate layer, 8, of expanded polystyrene, while the outer- or uppermost layer 10 is a web of cotton or another suitable material, e.g. of a rainproof type. All these layers are stitched together along quilting stitchings 12, e.g. having a mutual spac ⁇ ing of 4-6 cm.
- the total thickness of the material will be approx ⁇ imately 10 mm which is considerably less than for con ⁇ ventional garment materials having a similar high insu ⁇ lation effect.
- the insulation layers 4 and 8 are particularly cheap, as they are already produced for entirely different purposes.
- Fig. 3 a single one of the insulation layers 4 or 8.
- the layer consists of open cellular, interconnected grain discs 14 originating from expanded grains in a block material, from which the thin plate material has been separated, or from such grains ex ⁇ panded between opposed, closely spaced forming surfaces. It will be noticed that the needle stitching points 16 of the quilting stitchings 12 are spaced from each other relatively widely relative to the size of the grain discs 14, such that the plate material is in no way cut along the lines 12.
- the mate- rial shown is provided with two layers, 4 and 8, of polystyrene, but it is perfectly possible to make use of but a single layer as well as of more than two layers.
- the material according to the invention may appear in an unfamiliar manner in being highly heat insulating without in any way being eiderdown-like or even general ⁇ ly soft, and it may appear essentially thinner than usual heat insulating garment materials. However, it may of course also be produced as a soft or semisoft mate ⁇ rial, e.g. as a bed quilt or a mattress cover.
- Fig. 4 is shown an example of a bed quilt, con ⁇ sisting of two layers of a material according to the invention, designated 18 and 20, respectively, these layers being joined solely by a stitching 22 along the outer edges thereof.
- the single layers 18 and 20 are made of several web layers that are assembled by point stitchings 24, which may fully replace the quilting stitchings 12 according Figs. 1-3.
- the upper material layer 18 is made of an uppermost textile layer 26, an underlying layer 28 of expanded polystyrene, a further underlying layer 30 of a foam material, and a lowermost layer 32 of Vlieseline or a textile material.
- the latter layer is of no particular structural significance in the quilt product, but it is required for the formation of the point stitchings 24, as the sewing machinery cannot work with the foam layer 30 as an outer layer in the material.
- the lower material layer 20 is made in a corre ⁇ sponding manner, namely with an outer, lowermost fabric layer 26' and an upper layer 32' of Vlieseline, with intermediate layers 30' and 28' of foam material and polystyrene, respectively.
- the foam layer 30' is mounted between the outer layer 26' and the poly ⁇ styrene layer 28', while in the upper web material 18 it is the polystyrene layer 28 which is closest to the outer textile layer 26.
- the bed quilt according to Fig. 4 will be highly insulating in that it contains two polystyrene layers 28 and 28' and two foam layers 30 and 3o' and furthermore a layer of air between the two edge joined web members 18 and 20. Because these are individually point stitched there will not be formed any through going cold bridges when the web members are laid together and are joined by stitching along their outer edges.
- the user of the resulting blanket can choose be ⁇ tween a higher and a lower heat insulation effect, as this effect will be smaller when the blanket is used as shown in Fig. 4, where the lower polystyrene layer 28' is separated from the lower textile layer 26' by means of the foam layer 30', while the insulation effect will be higher if the user turns the blanket upside down, because the polystyrene layers 28 and 28' will then be located closer to the body of the user, with the layer 28 separated from the user only by the outer textile layer 26.
- the material according to the invention will be able to replace electrically heated textile products in articles such as heating blankets, pads or vests and mattress covers, and such articles according to the invention will show the advantage that as far as cleaning is concerned they can be treated as ordinary laundry.
