Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a multifilament yarn comprising a low number of filaments in the yam bundle.
  • the present invention relates to a synthetic, low-filament number, continuous, multifilament yam that is highly resilient and that is comfortable to a wearer of fabric including such yarn.
  • a monofilament, synthetic, continuous filament yarn such as polyester or nylon.
  • a monofilament ya is generally preferred over a multifilament yam because of the need for the superior resilience and recovery characteristics provided by a monofilament yarn.
  • Monofilament yams are also preferred because a yam having increased resilience and recovery characteristics can be formed in a single filament of a nominal denier size in the yam spinning process.
  • Monofilament yams include long-chain synthetic polymers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon, and polyester, which are used in many industrial and commercial applications.
  • higher denier, synthetic, continuous monofilament yarns having strength and superior resilience and recovery properties are utilized in fishing line, weed trimmer cutting lines, and sail rigging.
  • Finer denier, such as 10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 , and higher denier, monofilaments are used in textile and apparel applications for their resilience and recovery properties.
  • Monofilament yams are widely used in various methods of forming fabrics, including weaving, knitting, braiding, and the like.
  • Monofilaments are used in a variety of fabric constructions, particularly in weft- knitted and wa -knitted structures using various combinations of yams.
  • a translucent, or sheer, effect is desired in certain stitches, for example in a weft-knit, mesh-effect pattern.
  • a fine denier size monofilament is utilized for such translucent courses rather than a similar fine denier multifilament yam, because a multifilament yam, even one having a fine denier, would exhibit too much opacity and "coverage,” thus losing the desired sheer effect.
  • monofilament yams can provide desirable resilience and visual characteristics to fabrics and garments, monofilaments possess a significant disadvantage.
  • Cutting fabrics into various shaped parts or garment components can expose the severed ends of monofilament yams all along the cut fabric edge.
  • the severed yarn ends can be extremely difficult to cover or insulate from skin contact even with high quality sewing thread and seaming techniques.
  • a relatively large individual monofilament yam protrudes out from a fabric surface or from a cut fabric edge at a garment seam, the garment wearer often experiences skin irritation from the somewhat stiff, exposed monofilament yam. Such irritation can lead to discomfort and eventual dissatisfaction with the garment.
  • the problem of skin irritation from exposed monofilament yams can be exacerbated in intimate apparel and/or medical use fabrics using higher denier monofilament yams for increased fabric performance properties.
  • the problem of monofilament yam skin irritation is well known, and has prevented the use of monofilament yams when highly resilient yarn properties are desired to maximize function and performance of fabrics and garments.
  • a yarn that possesses high resistance to bending like a monofilament yam while being acceptably comfortable to a garment wearer when in contact with the wearer's skin includes a yam that provides comfort both before and after a fabric comprising the yam has been cut and sewn into a finished garment.
  • Multifilament yams having a sufficiently high resilience and recovery index to satisfy the construction needs of certain engineered fabric structures are not commercially available.
  • An example of a fabric structure in which a highly resilient multifilament yam would be useful is a multi-layered, weft-knit spacer fabric.
  • the spacer yam component is usually a monofilament yam, selected to obtain the maximum obtainable composite fabric thickness and resilience.
  • a monofilament yam would essentially lie in a straight-line, vertical plane between and connecting the face layer and backing layer, maintaining the layers in a spaced relationship at a maximum fixed distance apart, and thereby resist bending.
  • Multifilament yams have been previously disclosed. Intermingled, or twisted, multifilament yams are disclosed by, for example, by U.S. Patent Nos. 5,442,903 to Lagarrigue, and 5,424,123 to Geirhos et al.
  • the patent to Lagarrigue discloses a method of twisting heavy denier nylon or polyester monofilament yams for industrial applications.
  • Such applications include use as a reinforcement in tires, for paper machine junction felts, as a canopy support, and for heavy duty knitting or braiding.
  • the Lagarrigue patent discloses assembling, twisting, and thermo-setting at least two filaments of synthetic material of a grist at least equal to 20 tex up to 500 tex (equivalent to 180 denier up to 4,500 denier) for textile operations.
  • the patent to Geirhos et al. discloses an intermingled multifilament yarn comprising primarily high modulus monofilaments made, for example, of aramid, carbon, or glass.
  • the multifilament yam has a total denier in a range between 700 dtex to 3000 dtex (630 denier to 2700 denier).
  • High modulus yarns are often twisted together into multifilament yams using an air intermingling process.
  • the Geirhos et al. process teaches intermingling high modulus yams at elevated temperatures, which tends to make the filaments brittle and break, leading to an appreciable reduction in tenacity of the filaments for each other.
  • U.S. Patent No. 6,116,059 to Rock et al. discloses an integrated, three-dimensional, warp-l ⁇ iitted spacer fabric, including a first fabric layer, a second fabric layer, and a resilient yam interconnecting the two fabric layers.
  • the first fabric layer is made from fiber rendered hydrophilic, and the second fabric layer is abrasion resistant.
  • the Rock et al. patent discloses a monofilament yam of between 40 denier and 150 denier in size wherein the spacer pile yam has sufficient resilience and stiffness to keep the first and second fabric layers apart even under the application of pressure.
  • U.S. Patent No. 5,735,145 to Pernick discloses an incontinence mattress pad made of a multiple layer, weft knit fabric.
  • the multiple layer fabric is designed for absorbing moisture and wicking it from a first hydrophobic layer to a second hydrophilic layer by using highly efficient wicking spacer yams of a preferably non- textured continuous, multifilament polyester.
  • the multifilament spacer yarns preferably include 37 filaments, each filament having a denier in the range of 100 to about 200.
  • Multifilament yams comprising a low number of individual monofilaments, each monofilament separately having a denier size that will not cause irritation to a wearer's skin and that possess high resilience and stiffness similar to that of a monofilament yam have not been made available for apparel use.
  • a ya that possesses high resistance to bending like a monofilament yam while being acceptably comfortable to a gamient wearer when in contact with the wearer's skin.
  • the need for such a yam includes a yarn that provides comfort both before and after a fabric comprising the yam has been cut and sewn into a finished garment.
  • the present invention comprises a multifilament yarn that comprises a low number of filaments in the yam bundle and that is highly resilient.
  • Embodiments of the present invention comprise a synthetic, low filament number, continuous, multifilament yam that is highly resilient and that is comfortable to a wearer of such yam.
  • Low-filament number, continuous, multifilament yams of the present invention have a high resistance to deformation and bending similar to a monofilament yam.
  • Such highly resilient multifilament yams can be utilized in various fabric constructions and garments made therefrom.
  • Embodiments of the present invention include articles of manufacture, for example clothing, apparel, and medical gannents, produced from fabrics containing such a yam.
  • Garments made from such multifilament yams avoid exposure of a wearer's skin to irritating monofilament yams and cut ends of monofilament yarns and thus provide garment wearing satisfaction and comfort not available with garments containing monofilament yams .
  • Embodiments of the present invention provide a highly resilient, multifilament yarn that can be utilized in both weft-knitted and wa ⁇ -knitted fabric structures and in either single or double needle knitting systems. Accordingly, a highly resilient, a low filament number, multifilament yam of the present invention can be used to produce a multi-layer, weft knit spacer fabric, a multi-layer, wa ⁇ knit spacer fabric, a single layer, wa ⁇ knit fabric, and/or a single layer, weft knit fabric. Such a highly resilient, low filament number, multifilament yarn bundle provides desired characteristics of stiffness and resistance to bending without being an uncomfortable irritant against the skin of a person wearing a garment made with such fabrics.
  • embodiments comprise a multifilament yarn having a very few continuous filaments that are highly resilient.
  • the filaments are either twisted or intermingled to facilitate maintaining the individual filaments sufficiently in the yam bundle.
  • Such twisting or intermingling helps the yam to maintain a bundle integrity suitable for forming fabric in weft-knitted and/or wa ⁇ - knitted fabric constructions.
  • the multiple filaments are "up- twisted," the higher the number of turns, or 360 degree twists, that are imparted in each inch length of yarn, the more resilient the resulting yarn becomes, and the greater its stiffness, or resistance to bending.
  • a low filament number, multifilament yarn having a total denier size comparable to a high denier monofilament includes only a few filaments such that the finer denier of each individual filament would not irritate a wearer's skin.
  • a highly resilient, low filament number multifilament, continuous, synthetic yam comprises a spacer yarn in a multilayer weft knit fabric.
  • the multi-layer fabric can be made using both dial and cylinder needle beds.
  • the composite fabric has two discrete knit fabric layers that are secured in a substantially parallel and spaced apart relationship. A plurality of the resilient spacer yams extend between the two fabric layers and secure the two fabric layers in a substantially uniformly spaced apart manner.
  • the two fabric layers may be formed using a combination of stitches, such as knit, miss, and/or tuck stitches.
  • a multi-layer weft knit fabric includes two parallel knit fabric layers, at least one of the fabric layers having an integrally knitted decorative Jacquard design.
  • the Jacquard design can use one or more patterns, such as geometric, free-form, floral, abstract, brand logos, and the like on the outer, technical face surface of the fabric layer.
  • the other layer can include either a decorative design effect on the outer, technical face surface or a less decorative construction.
  • the two fabric layers are joined together by a series of knit or laid-in courses utilizing a highly resilient, low filament number, multifilament yam forming spacer yarns.
  • the spacer yams secure the two layers together in a spaced apart relationship relative to each other.
  • the Jacquard design may be formed using a combination of stitches, including knit, miss, and/or tuck stitches.
  • the less decorative fabric layer construction may be formed using a combination of stitches including knit, miss, and/or tuck stitches.
  • a fabric formed on a single needle bed of a circular or flat weft knitting machine comprises a highly resilient, low filament number, multifilament yam.
  • Such a process can produce a single knit fabric structure in which the multifilament yarn can be used as a ground yarn and/or can provide a visual effect, such as a sheer quality to the fabric. Because such a fabric is single knit, the resilient multifilament yam provides a non-irritating surface for contact with the skin of the wearer of a garment made from the fabric.

  • the resilient multifilament yam can be combined with an elastomeric yam such as spandex to function as a ground yam or as a visual effect yam.
  • Use of such a yam can provide a desired sheemess, as well as resilience, to the fabric construction, while simultaneously avoiding stiff monofilament yam irritation to a wearer's skin.
  • the resilient multifilament yam can be utilized as a spacer ya between layers of fabric.
  • a multi-layer weft knit fabric includes two discrete knit fabric layers comprising continuous, multifilament, synthetic yams.

  • the multifilament spacer yams comprise individual filaments that have a denier in a range of about 3-10 denier per filament.
  • Any of the conventional synthetic polymer fibers may be utilized to produce a highly resilient, low filament number, multifilament yam of the present invention.
  • thermally heat-settable, synthetic, continuous filaments produced from nylon, polyester, and/or blends thereof may be used to produce multifilament yarns according to the present invention.

  • Twisting or intermingling filaments provides additional qualities of resilience and stiffness that achieve desired performance characteristics in engineered fabrics. Yet, using individual filaments in the multifilament bundle each having a fine denier allows a resulting yam and fabrics and garments including such yams to be non-irritating to a wearer's skin, even when exposed to cut ends of the yarns.

  • BAR 1 is solid threaded with a bright luster 40 denier, 30 filament continuous multifilament yam 61.
  • Two discrete fabric layers are formed by alternately knitting back needle bar (B) only with yams 61 fed from BAR 1.
  • BAR 1 moves 0-0 and misses any overlapping of needles on the front needle bar (F), while an overlapping movement from space positions 1 to 3 on the back needle bar ("double-needle overlap") (1-3) knits on the back needle bar only, missing the front needle bar by again not overlapping (3-3), and knitting again on the back needle bar (B) as 2-0.
  • BAR 1 forms a first discrete fabric layer on the back (B) needle bar only.
  • BAR 4 with stitch notation as shown 2-0/0-0/1-3/3-3// only knits on the front needle bar and is solid threaded with a semi-dull luster 40 denier, 20 filament yam 65.
