Title:
MULTI-VANE METHOD FOR HYDROENHANCING FABRICS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2001027373
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
A method and system for improving the appearance, covering ability and physical properties of woven fabrics by supporting the fabric which is to be treated on a foraminous surface, directing a plurality of columnar liquid streams in the form of oblique vanes against the fabric at an angle which is oblique to the warp direction of the cloth. The columnar streams impinge the cloth under pressure which is sufficient to penetrate and effect an enter-entangling of the fibers of the fabric, and the fabric which is thus treated is advanced under similar streams to treat substantially the entire surface of the fabric. The direction of the jets impinges on opposite sides of the fabric and they are oriented in a position which places them in direct opposition of one another.
