A securing system includes a fastener and a tape. The fastener includes a main body portion having a first end and a second end, a curved portion extending from the first end, first and second legs extending from the second end, and a roller extending between the first and second legs. The tape may extend around the roller and may be self-adhering.

To provide a stretchable laminate, a locking member, and a sanitary material that can be easily extended at a low stress as well as can enhance the strength. A stretchable laminate 10 according to one embodiment includes a non-woven fabric 14, an elastomer layer 13 laminated on the non-woven fabric 14, and a knitted fabric 15 laminated on the elastomer layer 13. A locking member according to one embodiment is a locking member that is attached to a sanitary material, the locking member including a stretchable laminate 10 including a knitted fabric 15 laminated on an elastomer layer 13, and an engaging portion provided on an end portion of the stretchable laminate 10 opposite to the sanitary material.

A method for heat-setting and laminating a 3D knitted fabric, which fabric has hot-melt adhesive yarn, on a carrier device for an interior component of a motor vehicle, includes the following steps: arranging the 3D knitted fabric on the carrier device in a laminating apparatus; activating the hot-melt adhesive yarn by way of the laminating apparatus for the heat-setting of the 3D knitted fabric; laminating the heat-set 3D knitted fabric on the carrier device by way of the laminating apparatus. A laminating apparatus for performing the heat-setting and laminating of the 3D knitted fabric on the carrier device is provided.

Provided are a method of collectively preparing moisture-permeable waterproof clothing and clothing prepared thereby. The method includes a step of cutting a fabric substrate and a film into a plurality of pieces, wherein the plurality of pieces includes at least a first and second group, wherein the first group includes a first substrate and film, and the second group includes a second substrate and film; a step of forming a first laminate by processing the first group; a step of forming a second laminate by processing the second group; a step of forming a seam by connecting the first and second substrate; a step of covering a seam area with the second film and then covering the second film with the first film; and a step of finally laminating the first and the second laminate along with the seam.

Disclosed are a vehicle seat cover made of an artificial suede. The vehicle seat cover includes a top layer provided in the top portion, a bottom layer provided in the bottom portion, and a intermediate layer positioned between the top layer and the bottom layer. Each of the layers has a tricot texture, and the top layer includes the first yarn having a configuration in which the dope dyed microfiber yarn and the first high shrinkage yarn are interlaced. Thus, the suede material may have superior friction fastness and the light fastness and the vehicle seat cover is manufactured at less cost than a vehicle seat cover made of a conventional artificial suede.
