20120027988 | PRINTED EMBLEM FOR SECURING TO A FIRST FABRIC - A printed emblem for being securing to a first fabric includes a fabric base having a front surface and a rear surface. The fabric base is made of the same or substantially the same material as the first fabric and has the same or substantially the same weave pattern and color as the first fabric. An emblem design is printed onto the fabric base. A stitched border extends around the periphery of the fabric base, the border being made using a relatively small sized needle and a relatively thin, dull yarn which is the same or substantially the same color as the color of the fabric base so that the border is relatively small and fades into the fabric base so as to be nearly invisible. A layer of thermoplastic adhesive material is bonded to the rear surface of the fabric base for securing the emblem to the first fabric. | 02-02-2012 |

(ASTM D790); the article including a composition including (a) from about 1 to about 95% by weight of the composition of at least one functional group containing polymer or oligomer; and (b) from about 5 to about 99% by weight of the composition of at least one engineering thermoplastic, and optionally containing a filler and optionally containing an unmodified polyolefin, ethylene copolymer or ethylene terpolymer. | 07-02-2009 |
20090233042 | SEALING TAPE AND TEXTILE PRODUCT USING THE SAME - The object of the present invention is to overcome a practical restriction that a knit must be used on a surface of a sealing tape when the sealing tape is used for a textile product obtained by subjecting a fabric laminated product to sewing-processing or fusion process as well as providing a sealing tape which is excellent in durability, light-weighted and thin, and highly comfortable without undermining appearance and touch feeling. The sealing tape of the present invention comprises a base film and a woven fabric laminated on one side of the base film and an adhesive layer laminated on the other side of the base film, wherein a total cover factor (CF | 09-17-2009 |
20110287212 | ORNAMENTED COMPOSITE MATERIALS - A method for producing a composite part is provided that includes the steps of obtaining a fibrous mat having an outer surface; stitching an ornamental feature over the outer surface of the fibrous mat; and encapsulating the fibrous mat with the ornamental feature stitched therein in a transparent matrix with the ornamental feature outwardly visible through the matrix. | 11-24-2011 |
20120328824 | MACHINE FOR MAKING AN IMPERMEABLE JOIN ON IMPERMEABLE THREE-LAYER OR TWO-LAYER FABRICS - A machine for making an impermeable join between two panels made of three-layer or two-layer textile material including at least an internal layer, already joined along a joining line by way of a stitching operation, simple or complex, or by ultrasound joining or other, includes first movement element able to move the textile material in a direction of feed and impermeabilization element able to achieve the impermeabilization along said joining line and including second movement element able to move an impermeable tape for hot taping with adhesive, in order to determine the hot application and welding on the internal layer along the joining line. The impermeabilization element also comprise heating element suitable to effect a cauterization of the material of the internal layer and positionable directly upstream of the second movement element in the direction of feed, so that the hot taping can be effected immediately after the cauterization. | 12-27-2012 |
20130323459 | EDGE OVERLAY FOR LAYERED INSULATIVE BLANKET - A heavy duty layered blanket having application in construction applications is disclosed. It includes an overlay around one or more edges of the blanket which resists tearing and wear. The overlay helps to assure that the layers of the blanket stay in place when placed in use, especially in heavy duty construction applications such as for curing concrete. Selective openings in the overlay facilitate attachment of multiple blankets to each other and related facilities, such as scaffolding. | 12-05-2013 |

The method includes the steps of: (a) providing a textile planar structure, of which merely a first sub-region is impregnated with a matrix; (b) heating the textile planar structure which is impregnated in part, in such a way that the matrix provided in the first sub-region of the textile planar structure cures; (c) connecting the textile planar structure in a second sub-region of the textile planar structure, different from the first sub-region, by stitching the second sub-regions; (d) introducing a further matrix at least into the stitched second sub-regions of the textile planar structure; and (e) heating the impregnated textile planar structure in such a way that the further matrix present in the stitched second sub-regions of the textile planar structure cures. The present invention further relates to aircraft or spacecraft production. | 07-03-2014 |
20150321449 | VEHICLE INTERIOR PANELS WITH SEALED STITCHING - A vehicle interior panel includes stitching sewn through a decorative skin layer of the panel. The associated sewing needle holes are sealed by an elastomeric material before a foam layer is formed on the non-visible side of the skin layer to prevent the expanding foam from leaking through the needle holes and becoming visible at the visible side of the panel. The elastomeric material is initially applied as a viscous liquid formulated to solidify and can be applied by spraying, enabling lines of stitching to be located along complex contours of the panel. A latex emulsion is one suitable type of viscous liquid. | 11-12-2015 |
