FIBER STRUCTURE BODY AND FIBER-REINFORCED COMPOSITE MATERIAL
20220258436 · 2022-08-18 · ·

A fiber structure body includes a several fiber layers stacked in a stacking direction and has a multi-axial orientation that includes axial-force directional yarns, orthogonal directional yarns, and intersecting yarns. The fiber structure body includes a flat plate portion and a bend portion that is bent to the flat plate portion and includes a surface intersecting with a surface of the flat plate portion. The axial-force directional yarns are made of continuous fiber of reinforced fiber. Of yarns that form the bend portion and are other than the axial-force directional yarns, yarns that form at least one axis of the bend portion are provided by spun yarns made of discontinuous fiber.

Woven irrigation tubing, apparatus and method of making same
11441706 · 2022-09-13 · ·

Woven irrigation tubing comprising a woven, extrusion coated & laminated tube formed of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) outer layer, a low density polyethylene (LDPE) middle layer and a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) inner layer. The finished tubing is treated for ultraviolet resistance. The tubing is tied off at a distal end with a proximal end connected to a pressurized irrigation source. Watering holes are created in the tubing at spaced intervals and the resulting water streams are directed into parallel plowed furrows. The tubing is completely recyclable. The tubing is formed by manufacturing tape for the woven outer tubing cover, stretching the tape along its length to strengthen it, weaving the outer layer from the tape, flattening the woven outer layer, extrusion coating each surface of the outer layer with LDPE, laminating the LLDPE inner layer to the LDPE, reversing and winding the tubing for storage and distribution.

Woven fabric composed of tape-like warps and wefts
11377762 · 2022-07-05 · ·

A novel woven fabric is provided wherein preferably two unidirectional mutually offset and at least partly overlapping layers of tape-like warps interlace with tape-like wefts, at least some being fibrous tapes, that are incorporated individually in either non-overlapping manner or in a mutually offset and overlapping manner relative to other weft tapes. Such a woven fabric is without see-through gaps at the areas/sites encircled by intersecting tape-like warps and wefts, and also delamination resistant. It is particularly suitable for composite material, ballistic mitigation, and similar applications.

Impact resistant, wrappable multilayered woven sleeve and method of construction thereof

A wrappable, woven sleeve includes a wall having opposite edges extending lengthwise between opposite ends, with the opposite edges being wrappable into overlapping relation to bound a central cavity. The wall has a plurality of layers extending from one edge to the opposite edge and from one end to the opposite end in overlying relation with one another. Each of the layers include warp yarns and fill yarns woven together. The wrapped wall has a radially outermost layer and a radially innermost layer. The radially outermost layer has at least one of a first tightness and/or first width and the radially innermost layer has at least one of a second tightness and/or second width, with the first tightness and first width being greater than the second tightness and second width.
