MEHOD OF MANUFACTURING PLEATED PRODUCT AND FABRIC FOR PLEATED PRODUCT USED FOR THE METHOD

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/097102

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

A method of manufacturing a pleated product capable of partially applying pleating treatment to a fabric so that boundary parts between pleated portions and non-pleated portions can be conspicuous and a fabric for the pleated product used for the method. In the method, a part of the fabric (1) for the pleated product in which one of warp (2) and weft (3) is formed of easy-to-pleat yarns and the other is formed of hard-to-pleat yarns is folded along a folding line (4) tilted relative to the warp (2) and the weft (3), the pleating treatment is applied to the fabric up to the folding line (4) in the passing direction of the warp (2) or the weft (3), and the fabric (1) for the pleated product is unfolded and washed. Effective pleats are formed on one surface of the folded portion only in the passing direction of the easy-to-pleat yarns, and not formed on the other surface in the passing direction of the hard-to-pleat yarns. The pleats in the passing direction of the hard-to-pleat yarns are eliminated by a washing step to form the non-pleated portion (5b), and the pleats formed in the passing direction of the easy-to-pleat yarns form a pleated portion (5a) in which the pleats are surely formed up to the folding line.
