摘要:
Methods of molding a non-woven fabric are provided. The methods include selecting a non-woven fabric having a web of randomly disbursed fibers, compressing the non-woven fabric between a top mold and a bottom mold, and maintaining the non-woven fabric between the top and bottom molds for a predetermined dwell time to define a molded depth and a molded diameter in the non-woven fabric. In some embodiments, the method includes exposing the non-woven fabric to mechanical agitation. In other embodiments, the method includes selecting the top and bottom molds to have a depth that is larger than the molded depth by about 30 to about 50 percent and a diameter that us larger than the molded diameter by less than about 10 percent.

A molded composite fabric and methods of making are provided. The molded composite fabric has a polyethylene foam layer and a first fabric layer adhered to a first side of the polyethylene foam layer to define a composite fabric. The molded composite fabric also includes a feature molded in the composite fabric. The first fabric layer has a non-woven fabric with a web of randomly disbursed fibers. The method includes selecting a non-woven fabric having a web of randomly disbursed fibers, exposing the non-woven fabric to mechanical agitation, laminating the non-woven fabric to a first side of a polyethylene foam layer to a composite fabric, compressing the composite fabric between a top mold and a bottom mold, and maintaining the composite fabric between the top and bottom molds for a predetermined dwell time.

A circular knit garment blank is provided. The blank has an internal dimension defined by a series of courses, a length defined by a series of wales, and a pair of cut lines. The length is sufficient to encircle a torso of a wearer. The cut lines are defined in the blank for severing the series of courses along the length to form two brassieres.

A garment having a fabric layer and an edge band is provided. The edge band and the fabric layer each include a sonically weldable material. The garment has a sonic edge weld securing the edge band to the fabric layer along a cut edge of the garment and an adhesive securing the edge band to the fabric layer. During manufacture, the edge band is placed on the fabric layer, sonic energy is applied so that the fabric layer and the edge band are simultaneously trimmed along a cut edge and welded to one another along the cut edge, and an adhesive between the fabric layer and the edge band is activated to adhere the edge band to the fabric layer.

A method for forming a molded garment is provided. The method includes positioning an assembly of material between a first heated mold element and a second heated mold element, moving the first and second heated mold elements in relation to one another to laminate the assembly of material into a laminated assembly; moving a third heated mold element through the first heated mold element into contact with the laminated assembly so that the third heated mold element shapes a portion of the laminated assembly; and causing the first and second heated mold elements to trim fabric from the laminated to define the molded garment.

A method of forming an undergarment is provided. The method includes inserting an adhesive layer between a first fabric layer and a second fabric layer to form a fabric sub-assembly, the sub-assembly having a periphery that is larger than an outer periphery of the undergarment; causing the adhesive layer to form a laminate from the sub-assembly; and removing a trim from the laminate at the outer periphery to form a finished edge of the undergarment, wherein the first and second fabric layers comprise at least one cotton material.
摘要:
A method for making a garment having a lofted assembly having an outer support layer and garment so produced are provided. The method includes the steps of positioning a support fabric on a lofted material; sewing the support fabric to the lofted material to form a lofted assembly; positioning the lofted assembly in a molding apparatus having at least a first mold and a second mold, closing together the first mold and the second mold thereby sandwiching the lofted assembly therebetween and while maintaining a uniform preset gap between said first mold and the second mold so that the inherent loft characteristics of the lofted assembly are substantially preserved after pressure and/or heat are applied.
