A TEXTILE EMBODIMENT DESCRIPTION

The Related Art

The invention relates to a textile embodiment.

The invention particularly relates to a textile embodiment providing safe concealment by preventing detection by radar devices.

Background of the Invention

Nowadays, various military materials (weapons, tanks, clothes, vehicles, etc.) used in the defence industry require concealment for having the ability of movement without being noticed by enemy forces during battle.

With the developing technology, it has become quite easy to determine the positions of personnel or their equipment with eyes or with detection devices called radars.

Especially, it is not an acceptable situation for the personnel or their equipment to be detected during battle.

Therefore, military personnel uses concealment textile called camouflage in order to conceal themselves and their materials from being seen by the eye. However, this material is only used for the purpose of concealment from detection by the eye, against enemy.

Especially, these textile materials cannot provide protection/concealment against the technique used by radars.

Radars are devices that can detect location of subjects by determining the reflection of the electromagnetic waves emitted from these subjects. In the literature, in PCT application No. WO 2000/017599, it is disclosed that: "The invention regards a material having a three-dimensional surface built up by bulgings arranged regularly or irregularly mutually adjacently, and which have approximately conical form. It is thus accomplished that the brightness of the material is little dependent on the view angle, in contrast to what is the case with plane surfaces, even if painted with matte camouflage paint."

In said application, a three-dimensional surface is formed on the fabric to provide visual camouflage.

As a result of the reasons given above, need has occurred for a structure that would allow hiding of military personnel, vehicles, and military personnel equipment against radar devices.

Description of the Invention

From the known status of the art, the purpose of the invention is to provide a concealment network which eliminates the prior art drawbacks.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide a structure that protects vehicles and military personnel equipment from radar effects and ensures concealment.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide a structure that provides movement capability to military personnel and vehicles without being affected from visual and radar detection.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide a lighter structure to allow easier movement of the military personnel and vehicles.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide a robust structure that will prevent tearing in difficult terrain conditions.

Another purpose of the invention is to provide a structure that can be in different colours according to the needs. Description of the Figures

2. Anti-Radar Covering Layer

Detailed Description of the Invention

In this detailed description, the novelty according to the invention is only disclosed for better understanding of the subject without forming any limiting effect.

The invention is a textile embodiment comprising a textile layer (1) formed of knitted or woven fabric providing safe concealment by preventing detection by radar devices, and it is characterized in that; it comprises an anti-radar coating layer (2) positioned on said concealment layer (1) and ensuring safe concealment due to its ability of absorbing and reflecting radar waves.

Figure 1 gives a view of the textile embodiment according to the invention. Said textile embodiment consists of a textile layer (1) and an anti-radar coating layer (2) positioned on said textile layer (1).

Said textile layer (1) is made of knitted or woven fabric.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, said textile layer (1) is made of a synthetic material. The anti-radar layer (2) found on said textile layer (1) is made of a material containing a conductive material. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, it comprises RAM (Radar- Absorbing Material). In a preferred embodiment of said textile embodiment for providing visual concealment, printing is made by a camouflage dye. While said textile layer (1) may have camouflage paint thereon, the camouflage paint may also comprise an anti-radar layer (2). In this way, said textile embodiment both has radar absorbing and reflecting feature and allows visual concealment.
