摘要:
A web spreading apparatus for transversely spreading a web, such as a split web formed of a longitudinally uniaxially stretched film, includes a spreading means arranged in a travelling path of the web for transversely spreading the web. The spreading means comprises a curved rod-like member and projections arranged generally circumferentially about an axis of the curved rod-like member. The curved rod-like member is arranged so that the concave side is directed forward and the convex side is directed rearward, in the web travelling direction, and the projections are rotatable about the axis of the curved rod-like member at a speed higher than the travelling speed of the web. In one aspect, the curved rod-like member comprises a curved shaft and an outer tube arranged about the curved shaft and rotatable relative to the curved shaft, the projections being formed between the grooves cut on the outer tube. In another aspect, the projections are formed of a spring arranged about the curved rod-like member.
摘要:
A nonwoven cloth of drawn long fiber of different kinds of polymers, having a strength equal to that of a woven cloth and features including a ductility, a uniformity, good feeling, a bulkiness and a thinness, characterized in that the nonwoven cloth is provided with drawn long fiber webs comprising long fiber filaments formed out of a plurality of kinds of thermoplastic polymers of different properties, the long fiber filaments as a whole being oriented in one direction. The invention also provides a nonwoven cloth of drawn long fiber provided with a first web layer of crimped filaments, and a second web layer of substantially non-crimped, drawn long fiber filaments, and comprising different kinds of polymers of high strength and bulkiness, and a method of manufacturing the same.
