A knitted spacer fabric has an upper knitted cover layer and a knitted lower cover layer, said cover layers being connected to one another by pile threads, wherein the cover layers are connected to one another by way of at least two different pile threads having dissimilar elasticity properties, and the cover layers are both knitted in a single-threaded or multiple-threaded manner across the entire area.

An upper-torso garment includes a tubular-jacquard knit structure within a chest-covering portion. The tubular-jacquard knit structure includes interlocked courses formed by each front-stitch course intermittently interlocking with a back-stitch course. The tubular-jacquard knit structure is divided into a plurality of zones across the chest-covering portion, and the zones may include different versions of the tubular-jacquard knit structure based on how front-stitch courses interlock with back-stitch courses.

An upper-torso garment includes a tubular-jacquard knit zone with a plurality of front-stitch courses and a plurality of back-stitch courses, where each front stitch course intermittently interlocks with a back-stitch course to form a plurality of interlocked courses. Interlocking cross overs within a first interlocked course are offset from interlocking cross overs within an adjacent second interlocked course.

A headgear or headgear segments are manufactured to shape thereby producing little or no waste material. Techniques such as knitting, braiding, crocheting, and 3D printing can be used produce the headgear.

An upper-torso garment includes a first knit zone and a second knit zone. The first knit zone includes a first tubular-jacquard knit structure and having a first modulus of elasticity, and the second knit zone includes a second tubular-jacquard knit structure and having a second modulus of elasticity, which is greater than the first modulus of elasticity.

A headgear or headgear segments are manufactured to shape thereby producing little or no waste material. Techniques such as knitting, braiding, crocheting, and 3D printing can be used produce the headgear.

A knitted fabric having a heat generating function has a four-layer structure and can be knitted by a flat knitting machine. Knit stitching is used to knit first and second layers such that the second layer is fully covered under the first layer. Tuck stitching is used to knit the third layer such that one stitch is made to the third layer per a preset number of stitches made to each of first and second layers. Knit stitching is used to knit the fourth layer. After knitting, the fabric is soaked with water and spin-dried to form protrusions, spatially distributed as a centered rectangular lattice, on fabric surface. The second layer is electrically conductive for generating heat and is hidden inside the fabric. This layer is not easily hooked by a user during use and cleaning. The fabric is elastic and soft, and provides a comfortable feeling to the user.

This disclosure generally relates to a hammock strap. The hammock strap includes an elongated length of strap material that is separated into a first strap and a second strap. The first strap and the second strap are woven together at one or more separation points to form eyelets between the first strap and the second strap. The first strap and the second strap may be further divided to provide a wider area of strap material.

A green ECO mat (GECOMAT) for aeroponics and hydroponics comprises at least one fabric green ECO mat of cultivation being woven to have arrayed multiple 3D-coniform-shaped (alike pyramid shape) chambers, and at least one floating member connects to the fabric green ECO mat. The chambers of the mat are positioned seed, and the floating member floats the mat in a space full with fluid in the nature to collect moisture in the fluid to provide for germination of the seed and growth of the plant. The harvesting means moves back the floating member and the mat when growth of the plant is completed.

A medical fabric obtained by a rapier loom such, having an upper fabric layer, a lower fabric layer and a hollow part defined between the lower fabric layer and the upper fabric layer in such a way to form a three dimensional structure in order to decrease the pressure exerted on the body parts of patients. The fabric has a dimensional surface which allows the upper fabric layer to form a textured structure by defining the hollow part due to the tension exerted on the lower fabric layer at the end of the loom.
