A fabric for reinforcing a power transmission belt including fibers of polyarylene sulfide and a belt utilizing the fabric. The fabric may have textured or elastic core wrapped stretch yarns in the longitudinal direction. Longitudinal yarns may include PPS and textured transverse yarns include nylon. Yarns may include blends of high performance fibers and nylon or other fibers.

The present invention provides tissue webs and products having improved z-directional properties. The improved z-directional properties may be achieved by providing the structure with a unique three-dimensional surface topography, which increases the structure's Exponential Compression Modulus (K) and Caliper Under Load (C0). By improving both K and C0, the present inventors have also been able to provide tissue structures with relatively high Compression Energy (E), which enables the structures to be calendered at high loads without significant loss of sheet bulk or degradation of strength.

A binding structure of an industrial fabric for binding both ends of a fabric with ends to form it into an endless type has loops formed by bending a portion or all ends of warp constituting the fabric at both ends and folding it back, the loop at the one end constitutes a binding loop which forms a common hole into which a core wire is introduced upon binding, the loop at the other end portion which is opposed to the binding loop to form a pair with the binding loop upon binding has a structure into which the binding loop is fitted and against which the binding loop is locked, and forms a loop hole into which the core wire is not introduced.

In summary, the invention is directed to a strap for tensioning a vehicle side curtain, the strap comprising: a strap body having a plurality of warp yarns and a weft yarn, the weft yarn being interleaved with each of the plurality of warp yarns, wherein the warp yarns are tensioned in a substantially straight configuration; and a coating to retain the warp yarns in their straight configuration.

The present invention relates to a novel tire cord fabric or strip made of alternating PET and nylon 6.6 warp cords which is used as tire reinforcement. Such a novel tire cord fabric or strips improve high speed durability, tread separation resistance and impact resistance when used as zero degree spirally wound cap ply in pneumatic radial tires.

A cover fabric for a power transmission belt, the fabric woven from warp yarns and weft yarns; the warp yarns and weft yarns each plied from a first filament yarn and a second filament yarn; the first filament yarn comprising higher tensile strength fibers than the second filament yarn; and the fabric woven in a modified twill pattern. A toothed belt with the cover fabric on the teeth, oriented on a bias, with the fabric having a bias angle less than 90.

A basic fabric for an adhered fabric of a transmission belt, provided with an upper face and a lower face and having warp yarns in a longitudinal direction and weft yarns in a transverse direction is provided. The warp yarns have a predefined degree of elasticity and the weft yarns have a lower elasticity than the warp yarns. The weave of the basic fabric is Inverted Batavia weave.

The object of the present invention is to provide a two-layer fabric for manufacturing a unwoven fabric which can reduce the sticking of the fiber generated upon the manufacturing of the unwoven fabric, while add the excellent lateral rigidity, the excellent diagonal rigidity, and the excellent sheet supportability to the two-layer fabric for manufacturing the unwoven fabric.

In the two-layer fabric for manufacturing the unwoven fabric comprising a right surface side layer consisting of wefts of the right surface side and warps of the right surface side, and a back surface side layer consisting of wefts of the back surface side and warps of the back surface side, the two-layer fabric for manufacturing the unwoven fabric further comprises a first pair of wefts in which a binding warp on the right surface side serving as a binding yarn and a binding warp on the back surface side serving as a binding yarn are arranged in a substantially vertical direction, a second pair of warps in which a warp on the right surface side and a warp on the back surface side are arranged in a vertical direction to be overlapped with each other, and a third pair of warps in which two warps on the right surface side are arranged adjacent to each other.

A clothing, in particular a press belt for a machine for producing or processing a fibrous material web, includes a paper side, a backing side, a base fabric and at least one additional structure. The at least one additional structure is formed of or includes a layer of polymer foam which provides the paper side of the clothing. A method for producing a clothing, and a machine for producing a fibrous material web, are also provided.

An illustrative example method of making an elongated load bearing member includes providing a plurality of tension elements. A plurality of weave fibers are woven together with the tension elements to thereby establish a weave. A traction surface is established on at least one side of the load bearing member. The traction surface is defined by the weave fibers. Coating the weave fibers with a compressible coating provides an exterior surface texture defined at least in part by the weave fibers.
