A knitted component with a surface that includes first areas and second areas having different relative coefficient of frictions and formed in an alternating pattern. The first areas of the first surface are 40% to 80% of the total surface area for the first surface. The alternating pattern may be in the form of concentric shapes. The alternating pattern may have linear boundaries and curvilinear boundaries between first areas and second areas. The first areas can be formed from a first yarn having a core and a coating. The coating at least partially surrounds the core.

The invention provides a rubbing alignment equipment, which belongs to the field of rubbing alignment technology and can solve the problem of badness of an alignment film during rubbing alignment due to the badness of the existing rubbing cloth. The rubbing alignment equipment of the invention comprises a rubbing roller, which comprises a roll shaft and rubbing cloth wound on the outer surface of the roll shaft, the rubbing cloth is doped with quantum dots, the rubbing alignment equipment further comprises an excitation light source, which can excite the quantum dots to emit light to detect whether the surface of the rubbing cloth has badness or not. The rubbing alignment equipment can well detect whether the rubbing cloth has badness or not.

Silk woven fabric is known and renowned for its touch. The drawback of silk, however, is its price, its poor washability, and low resistance against certain chemical treatments. It is therefore the object of the invention to provide a silk-like woven fabric which overcomes these problems. According to the invention, this problem is solved by providing a silk-like woven fabric (2) made from weft yarns (4) and warp yarns (6), wherein at least one of the weft yarns (4) and the warp yarns (6) contains or consists of lyocell filaments (8). Especially twisted lyocell filament yarns are used, the resulting material has a touch comparable to silk and physical properties that are equal to or even surpass those of silk. Moreover, the lyocell filament yarns (4, 6) may have a higher twist than silk yarns, other cellulose yarns, or synthetic yarns.

In an embodiment, the present invention provides a method for producing a structured microfilament non-woven, including: forming a non-woven by spinning microfilaments and/or composite filaments that can be split into microfilaments to form at least one fiber layer, stretching the at least one fiber layer, and laying the at least one fiber layer; thermally pre-bonding the non-woven; treating the thermally pre-bonded non-woven using a pressurized medium in order to break the thermal pre-bonding at least in part; and further applying a pressurized medium to the non-woven while the non-woven is resting on a structure-producing surface, so as to obtain a structured microfilament non-woven.

The invention relates to a warp knitted contexture including a base structure and pile loops anchored in the base structure for rattle free attachment of wiring harnesses or for attachment of replaceable grinding discs at grinding machines. It is an object of the invention to provide a new warp knitted contexture for both applications recited supra and other applications, wherein the warp knitted contexture can be produced in a more economical manner and has constant quality or a constant surface. The object is achieved in that a plurality of independently standing pile loops is arranged at the base structure through unilaterally tied drop stitch, wherein a height of the pile loops is greater than a distance between stitch wales and the pile loops are only arranged on the technically left side of the product.

A net-like structure of the present invention is one having a three-dimensional random loop bonded structure constituted of a thermoplastic elastomer continuous linear body, wherein the net-like structure has, in a thickness direction thereof, a thin fiber main region, a thick fiber main and a mixed region that is located between the thin fiber main region and the thick fiber main region and includes the thin fibers and the thick fibers in a mixed state, the fiber size of the thick fibers is greater than that of the thin fibers by greater than or equal to 0.07 mm, and the residual strain after 750 N constant load repeated compression at pressurization from the side of the thin fiber main region of the net-like structure is less than or equal to 15%.

This disclosure addresses a problem in relation to the environmental destruction that excessive apparel production can produce. In various embodiments, existing textile products are deconstructed into pieces of fabric and then reassembled into apparel in a manner that creates minimal or zero waste. In some embodiments, the fabric pieces will be positioned inside of one or more pattern pieces so as to completely cover each one without overlapping its border. The positioned pieces will be treated with an adhesive and then have a paper layer adhered to it to hold the positioned fabric pieces in place while they are stitched together. Then, the resulting sandwich will be soaked to remove the paper and dissolve the adhesive. The resulting unified fabric component will then be available to be stitched together with other similarly formed fabric components to form a garment.

A light-reflective pattern, disposed on a surface of a sheet-shaped object and formed from reflective threads and non-reflective threads by sewing, includes: a plurality of non-reflective regions formed from the non-reflective threads, and a plurality of gaps formed between the plurality of non-reflective regions, with the reflective threads disposed in the plurality of gaps. The reflective threads are exposed from the surface of the sheet-shaped object, allowing the light-reflective pattern to have a light reflection function.

A fabric includes a plurality of open stitches and a plurality of closed stitches that cooperatively define a data-bearing section. The data-bearing section contains coded information associated with the fabric. In defining the data-bearing section, each of the open stitches and each of the closed stitches are employed to respectively represent specific symbols of an encoding system. Each of the open stitches and the closed stitches is recognizable from a captured image of the data-bearing section based on image recognition technology. The coded information is extractable by identifying relative locations of the open stitches and the closed stitches in the data-bearing section, and applying the encoding system.

The artificial blood vessel of the present invention is an artificial blood vessel having a predetermined weaving structure in which a warp yarn and a weft yarn are woven, wherein at least one of the warp yarn and the weft yarn is composed of a multifilament yarn including a plurality of filament yarns, and wherein the artificial blood vessel has a plurality of covering parts provided at a plurality of locations on a surface of the artificial blood vessel, each of the plurality of covering parts covering the multifilament yarn in a planar shape, and uncovered parts that are provided between the plurality of covering parts and are not covered by the covering parts on the surface of the artificial blood vessel.
