A connection system has a first adhesion segment, on which a first connection region is formed, a second adhesion segment, on which a second connection region is formed, and a solidifiable liquid connection substance for connecting the two adhesion segments in a material fit, wherein at least one of the two connection regions is formed flexibly, such that, when the liquid connection substance is introduced between the two connection regions which are opposite one another in an assembly arrangement of the two adhesion segments, a material connection is formed between the two connection regions automatically as a result of the elastocapillary effect via the liquid connection substance.

A fabric assembly includes a knitted fabric and a filament. The knitted fabric is adapted to move between a stretched state extended along a direction of an applied force, and a relaxed state. The filament is disposed in the knitted fabric, and includes a plurality of loops longitudinally spaced apart from one-another. Each loop of the plurality of loops are adapted to project outward from the knitted fabric when in the stretched state, and substantially retract into the knitted fabric when in the relaxed state.

A fastening device has a plurality of individual spaced-apart interlocking elements made of a plastics material, each of which projects towards one side from a carrier part by being provided with a stem part and a head part. The number of interlocking elements is 100 to 200 pieces per cm.sup.2, preferably 120 pieces per cm.sup.2. The diameter of the stem part of an interlocking element is 150 to 250 m, preferably 213 m. The height of the interlocking element, calculated from the root-side base on the carrier part to the head-part end, is 1200 to 2200 m, preferably 1500 to 1980 m. The dimension of the largest head-part diameter of an interlocking element is 200 to 400 m, preferably 220 to 290 m.

A loop surface fastener in which numerous looped engaging elements formed from loop yarns inserted in parallel to ground warp yarns are provided upright on one side of a base fabric formed from ground warp yarns and ground weft yarns satisfies all the following requirements 1) to 3). 1) The loop yarn is a multi-filament yarn formed by bundling 5 to 9 filaments of 30 to 45 decitex. 2) The density of the looped engaging elements is in a range of 100 to 200/cm.sup.2. 3) Loop surfaces of the looped engaging elements are substantially facing in the same direction and the loop surface facing direction is a ground weft yarn direction.

Provided is a fabric for binding and fastening, including a first cloth material and a second cloth material. The first cloth material has a first base cloth, and a plurality of curved hook structures is provided on a surface of the first base cloth. The second cloth material has a second base cloth, and a plurality of loop structures is provided on a surface of the second base cloth. The hook structures of the first cloth material and the loop structures of the second cloth material are embedded in each other for binding. The fabric is applicable to two objects that need to be bound and fastened, avoiding the two objects from moving freely.

A knitted textile fabric includes a first knitted fabric layer including a first set of yarns. The first knitted fabric layer has outwardly extending pile underlap loops at one face adapted for mated engagement with hooking elements of a hook component of a hook-and-loop fastener. The knitted textile fabric also includes a second knitted fabric layer having a second set of yarns attached to the first knitted fabric layer. The second set of yarns includes a plurality of filaments in which adjacent filaments are fused together and adjacent yarns are fused together.

A woven-fabric hook-and-loop fastener including: a woven base fabric made of a woven-fabric made of a warp yarn and a weft yarn; a yarn for hook-shaped engaging elements made of a polyethylene terephthalate-based monofilament yarn woven into the woven base fabric in parallel with the warp yarn; and a plurality of the hook-shaped engaging elements formed from the yarn for the hook-shaped engaging elements and rising from a front face of the woven base fabric, on a front face side of the woven base fabric, in which a height of the hook-shaped engaging elements satisfies condition (1) described below and a hook shape of the hook-shaped engaging elements satisfies condition (2) described below: (1) 90% or more of the hook-shaped engaging elements present on the face of the base fabric have a height in a range of 0.975 to 1.025 times an average height (Ha) of the hook-shaped engaging elements; and (2) 90% or more of the hook-shaped engaging elements present on the face of the base fabric have a lateral-direction spread (W) of the hook-shaped engaging elements within a range of 0.7 to 0.8 times with respect to the height (H) of the hook-shaped engaging elements.
