Title:
WOVEN FABRIC USING NOBLE METAL MONOFILAMENT, AND METHOD AND MACHINE FOR PRODUCING THE SAME
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2002004150
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To obtain thin and flexible woven fabrics containing noble metal monofilaments which can be practically used as cloths and personal ornaments.

This invention relates to woven fabric characteristically made of monofilament wire of noble metal having tensile strength of 0.12N to 605N, as at least one, warp or weft. In a preferred embodiment, the monofilament wire of noble metal has the elongation at break of ≥1.5%. In another preferred embodiment, 14K gold, 18K gold, 24K gold or gold alloy is used as the material for the monofilament wire of noble metal. The invention also relates to a method of producing woven fabric by using monofilament wire of noble metal, in which the method comprises the step where the warp is prepared through the warping process an loom-preparing process, the step where the weft is prepared by winding the weft of monofilament wire of noble metal around the bobbin with a bobbin winder and the step where the objective fabric is woven by means of a shuttle loom. In this method, characteristically the rotary speed of the bobbin is continuously changed for winding up the weft in the step where the weft is wound up around the bobbin with the bobbin winder.
