Abstract
A pile fabric uses as the pile both spun yarn and a rope of non-twisted fibres (i.e. a sliver). The spun yarn and the sliver can be intermingled or used separately in different areas of the fabric. The pile fabric may have a plush effect or a 'high-low' effect. The sliver may be cut or left in loop form. The fabric is preferably made by a sliver knitting method but may also be made by a Raschel, weaving or tufting method.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Pile fabric
This invention relates to a pile fabric. Conventionally, pile fabrics have been formed exclusively from spun yarn or exclusively from a rope of non-twisted fibres (i.e. a sliver).
The present invention provides a pile fabric in which there is employed as the pile both spun yarn and a rope of non-twisted fibres (i.e. a sliver).
The pile fabric of this invention is very preferably made by means of a sliver knitting technique but it is contempiated that the pile fabric of this invention may be made by means of techniques such as are conventionally used with pile fabrics made exclusively fron spun yarns, e.g. weaving, tufting, Raschel etc.
The separate constituents of the pile of the fabric of the present invention may be intermingled in the fabric or may appear in separate areas of the fabric.
An important aspect of the pile fabric of the present invention is that it may be arranged to have a uniform height, i.e. to create a 'plush' effect, or may have areas of different pile height, i.e. to create a 'high-low' effect. The pile heights can respectively be associated with one or other of the pile constituents or the pile height differentiation may occur within just one of the pile constituents.
The pile constituents may be composed of any suitable fibres, natural or synthetic.
Examples of such fibres are wool, silk, cotton and thermoplastic polymers such as nylon and polyester. (The pile height of the sliver component may be selected to suit any required application; i.e. it may vary from 2mm to 150mm; likewise the yarn component may suitably be from the thickness of the yarn itself, up to 50mm, and the yarn and/or the sliver can be cut or left in loop form).
The pile fabric of the present invention may be formed to have a patterned appearance e.g. may be formed with a repeating motif or with a single design, or may be arranged to be substantially or completely plain.
The pile fabric of the present invention offers a novel fabric which can be of interesting appearance and feel and which can be produced utilizing conventional machinery with little or no modification.
1. A pile fabric in which there is employed as the pile both spun yarn and a rope of nontwisted fibres (i.e. a sliver).
2. A pile fabric according to Claim 1 and produced by a sliver knitting technique.
3. A pile fabric according to Claim 1 or 2 wherein the spun yarn is intermingled with fibres of the said rope of non-twisted fibres or sliver.
4. A pile fabric according to Claim 1 or 2, wherein the spun yarn and the fibres of the said rope of non-twisted fibres or sliver appear respectively in separate areas of the fabric.
5. A pile fabric according to anyone of
Claims 1 to 4, wherein the pile is of uniform height.
6. A pile fabric according to any of Claims 1 to 4, which includes areas of different pile height.
7. A pile fabric according to any one of the preceeding Claims, wherein the sliver is in loop form.
8. A pile fabric according to any of Claims 1 to 6 wherein the sliver is in cut form.
9. A pile fabric substantially as hereinbefore described.
10. The features hereinbefore disclosed, or their equivalents, in any novel selection.
