A protective textile sleeve and method of construction thereof is provided. The sleeve includes a circumferentially continuous wall extending lengthwise along a longitudinal axis between opposite ends. The wall has a first section formed from a non-heat-shrinkable, non-elastic yarn and a second section formed from one of a heat-shrinkable or elastic yarn. The first section extends lengthwise between the opposite ends and spans (X) degrees about the circumference of the wall between opposite lengthwise extending edges while in an unshrunken or stretch. The second section extends lengthwise between the opposite ends and spans (360-X) degrees about the circumference of the wall. The heat-shrikable or elastic yarn of the second section extends continuously as an uninterupted yarn between the opposite edges of the first section.

A seamless tubular liner for repairing an underground or surface pipe is disclosed, including circumferential wefts consisting of slivers comprising a plurality of staple fibers bundled together, the slivers adapted to elongate through disentanglement of the bundled staple fibers when the seamless tubular liner is subjected to an inflation pressure such that the diameter of the tubular liner is able to expand to accommodate variations of diameter of the pipe being repaired.

A fabric belt on which, when used as intended in a machine for producing spunbonded fabric webs, such spunbonded fabric webs are formed and transported. The belt has longitudinal threads and transverse threads that bind with the longitudinal threads. The threads are formed substantially of a polymer material and some of the longitudinal and/or transverse threads include electrically conductive material. The longitudinal threads form, on the web material contact side, convex longitudinal thread offsets with a knuckle, and the transverse threads have first transverse threads which form, on the web material contact side, first transverse thread offsets with a knuckle. A height difference between the knuckle crowns of at least some of the convex longitudinal thread offsets and the knuckle crowns of at least some of the first convex transverse thread offsets on the web material contact side is less than 220 μm or even less than 150 μm.

A system allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. The system swaps garments in a digital asset to garments that are designed using the system. The wear pattern is created by a laser using a laser input file. Generating the preview image comprises combining first and second contributions to obtain a combined value for a pixel at the pixel location of the preview image.

A system allows a user to create new designs for apparel and preview these designs before manufacture. Software and lasers are used in finishing apparel to produce a desired wear pattern or other design. The user's preview may be based upon a two-dimensional image of a wear pattern in a laser input file and, from a set of two-dimensional images of a base garment, create a three-dimensional view of the base garment with the wear pattern.

The invention provides a fitted platform (1) for positioning between two adjacent blades of an aviation turbine engine fan, said platform comprising a flow passage wall (10) made of composite material having a central portion (16) and first and second margins (18) each extending in a longitudinal direction of said wall, each margin extending over a determined distance (D) from the central portion (16) in a transverse direction of said wall, said flow passage wall comprising fiber reinforcement densified by a matrix, the platform being characterized in that the fiber reinforcement present in the central portion (16) presents three-dimensional weaving, and in that the fiber reinforcement present in the first and second margins (18) presents two-dimensional weaving, at least in part. The invention also provides a fan module, a turbine engine, and a method of fabricating such a platform.

There is provided a cushion material 10 for hot pressing including a cushion layer 1, wherein the cushion layer 1 includes woven fabric 5 and polyimide resin 6 adhered to surfaces of fibers forming the woven fabric 5 and has pores in the cushion layer 1, and warp and/or weft of the woven fabric 5 is texturized yarns made of glass fiber. This cushion material for hot pressing can maintain good cushioning properties even when used in high temperature pressing at 280° C. or more repeatedly.

The invention relates to a belt strap for a safety belt device of a motor vehicle, comprising at least one hollow section which has at least one cavity for receiving electronic components and/or lines, wherein the cavity is formed by two fabric layers and the fabric layers are formed by a plurality of warp threads and weft threads. The fabric layers are connected to each other in the outer edge sections by means of edge weave threads. A single layer section adjoins the at least one hollow section, in which the fabric layers are connected to each other by a plurality of central weave threads, the central weave threads in the hollow section being woven together in only one of the fabric layers.
