Three dimensional fabric and method for producing the same
摘要:
The present invention relates to a three dimensional fabric including a warp layer consisting of a plurality of warps arranged in parallel along a longitudinal direction of the fabric, bias threads arranged in inclined directions with respect to the longitudinal direction of the fabric in a place parallel to the warp layer, and a vertical thread arranged in a thicknesswise direction of the fabric such that it perpendicularly intersects the warps. It also relates to a method of producing the fabric. Where such fabric is employed for a composite material in which a resin or the like is used as a matrix, the composite material deforms less under the influence of forces acting in an oblique direction. It therefore has an increased range of applications as a structural material comparing with a conventional 3-axis three dimensional fabric. Further, the subject of the present invention resides in provision of a three dimensional fabric having an arrangement of threads of such bias directions and a producing process by which such three dimensional fabric can be produced comparatively readily. A bias thread layer is composed of a large number of continuous bias threads which are arranged such that they are inclined symmetrically to each other with respect to a longitudinal direction of the fabric in a plane parallel to the warp layer. Each pair of bias thread layers make a set. The engaging positions of the bias threads with a set made of each two thereof which are in an engaging condition with engaging portions of a feeding device disposed between the cloth fell position and a bias thread supplying section are moved by a predetermined pitch in opposite directions to each other for each of the bias thread layers along widthwise directions of the fabric by an action of the feeding device. Such movement of the engaging positions and insertion of vertical threads are performed alternately.
