DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(7) In the drawing figures a warp knitted material for rattle free attachment of cable harnesses or for attachment of replaceable grinding discs for grinding machines is overall designated with the reference numeral 10.

(8) In a schematic sectional view according to FIG. 1 the warp knitted contexture 10 is illustrated greatly enlarged. The warp knitted material 10 has a base structure 11 which is formed in a manner that is not illustrated in FIG. 1 from a base thread 12 and a tassle thread 13 (c.f. FIG. 2). Pile threads 14 are meshed with the base structure so that both arms 16 of the pile loops 15 are arranged on the same stitch wales 17.

(9) Furthermore the fact that according to FIG. 1 the height H (1.5-2 mm) of the pile loops 15 is greater than the distance A (1.41 mm) between the stitch wales 17 according to which it is provided for the warp knitted contexture 10 that the pile loops 15 are arranged upright adjacent to one another. This has the effect that the warp knitted contexture 10 does not only have great fluffiness (good rattle protection) but also pile loops 15 that are easily captured by a hook element of a hook and loop closure.

(10) FIG. 2 illustrates the stitch pattern of the warp knitted contexture 10 described supra. On the left side there is the tassle thread 13 which forms the base structure 11 with the base thread 12, wherein the pile thread 14 is illustrated on the right side, wherein the pile thread is only meshed with a stitch wale 17 through unilaterally tied drop stitch.

(11) FIGS. 3 through 5 illustrate exemplary embodiments in which a side of the warp knitted material 10 including the pile loops 15 is respectively encased by a foam material element 18 through injection molding.

(12) FIG. 3 illustrates a sectional view of a rotation element 19 of a non illustrated grinding machine which is configured as a foam material element 18. It is evident that the pile loops 15 are embedded in the foam material element 18 and that the base structure 11 is arranged at the surface of the foam material element. A hook side 21 of a hook and loop closure is attached to the base structure 11 with a glue layer 20. Since the surface of the foam material element 18 is covered by the base structure 11 a substantially improved connection between the rotating element 19 and the hook side 21 is achieved.

(13) FIG. 4 illustrates another embodiment configured as a sealing tape 22 with adhesive. Therein the foam material element 18 is in turn connected with the warp knitted material 10 so that the pile loops 15 are enveloped by the foam material element. A glue layer 20 is arranged on the base structure 11, wherein the glue layer has an excellent connection with the foam material element due to the textile structure of the surface of the foam material element.

(14) Eventually FIG. 5 illustrates a sectional view through a carpet 24 in which a foam material element 18 is arranged at the base side in which the warp knitted material 10 is in turn embedded through the pole loops 15 so that the base structure stabilizes the downward oriented surface of the foam material element 18. Furthermore a glue layer 25 is arranged on the top side of the foam material element 18, wherein a pile 26 of the carpet is attached at the glue layer. Also herein it is conceivable that the surface is provided with a warp knitted material 10 in order to better attach the glue layer 25.

(15) It is appreciated that the warp knitted contexture is useable in plastic injection molding as long as a melting point of the threads of the warp knitted material 10 is higher than a melting point of the material of the plastic element. In this case the warp knitted contexture can be used for providing a textile appearance to a surface of the plastic element or to provide in this case better adhesion of a glue layer at the plastic element.
