Definitions

  • the present invention pertains to a method to continuously produce a laminated textile product comprising a primary carrier sheet with yarns that form a pile on the front surface thereof, and a secondary carrier sheet attached to the back surface of the primary carrier sheet, the method comprising providing the primary carrier sheet with the yarns as a first continuous web, providing the secondary sheet as a corresponding second continuous web, and transporting the first and second web to a laminating station where the two webs are laminated to each other, wherein the first web is guided over a roller adjacent the laminating station, the roller being in contact with the pile.
  • the invention also pertains to a method to use a textile product obtained with the new method and a device for applying the said method.
  • a method to continuously produce a laminated textile product i.e. to produce a laminated textile product out of at least two corresponding continuous materials
  • the primary carrier sheet is transported to the laminating nip with its pile side being guided over at least one roller adjacent the nip, in order to be able and apply adhesive to the back side of the primary carrier sheet.
  • a set-up is chosen wherein the primary carrier is sheet is guided by a complex steering nip consisting of two rollers, the axis of which rollers can be adjusted with respect to the transport direction.
  • the primary carrier sheet is guided over a transport belt to further secure stable guidance.
  • the reason for all this is that the transport of a running web over a guide roller, with a pile directed to this roller, inevitably leads to a very strong tendency of the web to move laterally in one particular direction. Simply adjusting the axis of the rollers is typically not sufficient to keep the web running parallel to the process direction.
  • Lateral guides may be an option for very thick and heavy running webs (such as thick rubber belts provided with a pile for producing weatherstripping or brushes), but not for more flexible textile products, in particular not for carpet products such as broadloom carpet, carpet tiles, mats, rugs and runners.
  • a method to manufacture a textile product as defined in the GENERAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION section has been devised, wherein the roller adjacent the laminating station is a bowed roller (also called “bow roller") and the transport distance between the bowed roller and the laminating station is less than 4 meters, in particular less than 3.90, 3.80, 3.70, 3.60, 3.50, 3.40, 3.30, 3.20, 3.10, 3.00, 2.90, 2.80, 2.70, 2.60, 2.50, 2.40, 2.30, 2.20 or 2.10 meters.
  • a bowed roller may be sufficient to stably guide the continuous primary carrier, with its pile against the roller, parallel to the process direction, not needing additional adjusting rollers, transporting webs, lateral guides or other running web adjusting means as known from the art.
  • the arc needed in the roller may depend on the speed of the process, the needed accuracy, the stiffness of the web, the height of the pile, the stitching pattern of the pile etc..
  • a bowed roller may suffice to provide for an adequate running of the web.
  • the transport distance between the bowed roller and the laminating station is less than 4 meters. If the distance is longer than these 4 meters, a stable running of the web may not always be able to be provided.
  • the invention also pertains to the use of a textile product obtainable in line with the above described method to cover a surface of a building or any other artificial or natural construction.
  • the invention also pertains to a device for use in continuously producing a laminated textile product comprising a primary carrier sheet with yarns that form a pile on the front surface thereof, and a secondary carrier sheet attached to the back surface of the primary carrier sheet, the device comprising a laminating station for laminating two web materials together, transporting means for transporting the primary carrier sheet with the yarns as a first continuous web to the laminating station, wherein the transport means comprises a roller adjacent to the laminating station, the roller being in contact with the pile, further transporting means for transporting the secondary sheet as a corresponding second continuous web to the laminating station, wherein the roller is a bowed roller and has transport distance of less than 4 meters with respect to the laminating station, in particular less than 3.90, 3.80, 3.70, 3.60, 3.50, 3.40, 3.30, 3.20, 3.
  • a textile product is a product that comprises textile (i.e. material made mainly of natural or artificial fibres, often referred to as thread or yarn), optionally with other components such as backing layers, carrier layers and/or adhesives.
  • Textile products typically comprise an upper layer of pile attached to a backing (where the raised pile fibres are also denoted as the "nap" of the product), but may also be flat weave.
  • Such products can be of various different constructions such as woven, needle felt, knotted, tufted and/or embroidered, though tufted products are the most common type.
  • the pile may be cut (as in a plush carpet) or form loops (as in a Berber carpet).
  • a laminate is a structure comprising multiple stacked layers mechanically connected to each other.
  • a continuous sheet or web is a sheet having a length that is significantly longer than its width and having a minimum length of at least 1 meter, in particular at least 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 100 or even over 200 meters.
  • a woven material is a fabric material woven from yarns, fibres, tape or other thread-like material.
  • a bowed roller also called a “banana roller” is a type of "spreader roller” having a curved stationary axle upon which a rotating sleeve(s) is mounted, typically over multiple bearing sets.
  • the axle may have either a fixed or variable bow.
  • the sleeve is typically a one-piece flexible tube of a soft synthetic composite, or may consist of numerous narrow metal shells.
  • the amount of bow is typically between 0.1 and 2% (height of the arc vs length of the roller).
  • a sheet is a substantially two dimensional mass or material, i.e. a broad and thin, typically, but not necessarily, rectangular in form, and inherently has two opposite surfaces.
  • Stitching is a method of mechanically making a yarn part of an object by stitches or as if with stitches, such as by tufting, knitting, sewing, weaving etc.
  • the transport distance between the first bowed roller and the laminating station is less than 2 meters. It appears that with a shorter distance, there is more freedom in the type of bowed roller to use, that is, the type of sleeve, the bow of the axle (i.e. the height of the arc) etc.. Apparently, at a shorter distance the type of roller is less critical to arrive at a proper balance between adequate guidance of the web and prevention of distortion of the web due to the strain induced by the bowed roller.
  • the transport distance is less than 1 .95, 1.90, 1.85, 1 .80, 1 .75, 1 .70, 1.65, 1 .60, 1 .55, 1.50, 1 .45, 1 .40, 1.35, 1 .30, 1 .25, 1.20, 1 .15, 1 .10, 1.05, 1.0, 0.95, 0.90, 0.85, 0.80, 0.75, 0.70, 0.65, 0.60, 0.55 or less than even 0.5 meters.
  • the distance is preferably above 0.1 meters, or even above 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40 or 0.45 meters to provide sufficient space to configure the bowed roller with respect to the laminating station and to have sufficient process length at the station.
  • the pile has a height larger than 0.5 cm, in particular larger than 1 cm. Even at these high piles, which typically lead to a very strong tendency of a web, that is, when transported over a guide roller with the pile in contact with this roller, to move in lateral direction, the use of a bow roller on itself might suffice to keep the web running parallel to the process direction.
  • downstream of the laminating station the laminated product is transported over a second bowed roller. This embodiment is advantageous in that the processed product is adequately guided and straightened for further processing, which further processing may be as simple as winding on a roller after sufficient cool down.
  • first and/or second bowed roller have an adjustable arc.
  • the bow of the axle can be adjusted to arrive at an adequate balance between guidance of the web and prevention of distortion of the web, independent of the type of web (whether use is made of a non-woven or woven carrier sheet, and if woven, whether this is woven from fibre, tape, low-melting polymer, high- melting polymer, what the type of weave is etc.).
  • the adjustment can be arrived at by extending the (net) length over which the roller axle extends, thereby lowering the arc.
  • Easier to implement is an embodiment wherein the length and arc of the roller as such are fixed, but wherein the spatial configuration of the bowed roller is adjustable by rotating the bowed-roller set-up over the imaginary axle that extends between the end points of the roller. For example, by rotating the bowed roller from a position wherein the arc is upright, over an angle of 90° to a positon wherein the arc extends in horizontal direction, the actual tension applied to the web is altered from very high to very low.
