| The invention relates to a process for selectively lacing filaments on multi-dimensional textile preforms made of rods, in which the rods are displaced by the filament, the rods being pressed vertically downwardly by a needle (3) of the type with an open eye which, after passing through the piece to be laced and ejection of the rod, is opened at a so-called insertion station (9) for the filament to receive the filament to be laced (21), then is raised to pass the filament through the space freed by said rod, characterized by the following steps: there is first prepared a plurality of different filaments (21) disposed in ready position in parallel, the desired filament (21) is selectively brought facing said insertion station (9) of the filament, the necessary length of the selected filament is pre-delivered, the filament (21) is presented and brought into the eye of the needle (3) such that the hook of the needle is located substantially in the middle of the length of the filament to be laced, the needle (3) is raised and with it the double filament (21) and, if desired, at the end of raising of the needle the filament is cut in line with said insertion station (9). | ||||||
| 48 | Method and means for textile manufacture | US10220811 | 2002-12-16 | US20030116218A1 | 2003-06-26 | Nandan Khokar |
| A method and means for simultaneously inserting weft/binding yarns (45) and their beating-up, in textile manufacturing processes like 3D-weaving and uniaxial noobing, is disclosed. A yarn carrier (90; 39; 22) is equipped with a beating-up reed dent (27; 28). In carrier (90), which comprises a cartridge-like yarn supplying means (1x), the yarn (45) is arranged around two axes of rotation (X1 and X2) and it is enclosed in a case. It is particularly suitable for 3D textile-forming processes like 3D-weaving and uniaxial noobing because of its relatively low-height but high-width and hence the possibility of carrying relatively large amount of yarn. The yarn (45) is contained on a flanged belt (15) that can be driven either from within or from outside of the means (1x). Such a cartridge-like yam supplying means (1x) is equipped with tips (18a, 18b) that are offset or displaced oppositely about the central axis. Such a displaced arrangement of the tips directs the carriers (90; 22) to lay yarn (45) in two different paths, relative to a layer of warp/axial yarns, while traversing back and forth in the same linear path. Through such a method the 3D-weaving and uniaxial noobing processes can be made efficient. The yarn supplying means (1x) could also be useful in other textile processes. | ||||||

| 52 | Woven 3D fabric material | US09380489 | 1999-09-03 | US06338367B1 | 2002-01-15 | Nandan Khokar |
| A woven 3D fabric material comprises multilayer axial warp yarns and two orthogonal sets of weft which interlace with the rows and the columns of the warp respectively to provide integrity to the fabric which may additionally incorporate between the rows and the columns of the interlacing warp sets of non-interlacing multi-directionally orientated yarns in the fabric-length, -width, -thickness, and two diagonal directions respectively to improve the fabric's mechanical properties. The interlacing of the multilayer warp and the two orthogonal sets of weft is enabled by a dual-directional shedding means which forms sheds in the row-wise and the column wise directions of the multilayer warp. The produced woven 3D fabric material which may be cut into any desired shape without the risk of splitting up, may be wholly or in parts in technical applications. | ||||||

| A connection yarn inserting apparatus for manufacturing three-dimensional fabric. The apparatus inserts connection yarns into a lamination of fiber layers in a direction transverse to each fiber layer. The apparatus has insertion needles for inserting connection yarns into the lamination. The insertion needles are moved between a standby position, where the needles are separated from the lamination, and an operational position, where the needles penetrate the lamination. The lamination is clamped by a pair of opposed pressing members. The pressing members are operated by air cylinders. A stopper can be moved into and away from the moving range of the piston rod of each of the air cylinders. The stopper is actuated by an actuator. When the stoppers in the moving range of the associated piston rod, the stopper limits the stroke of the piston rod. This reduces the time necessary to move the associated piston rod and increases productivity. | ||||||

| A process for weaving using a reed having vertically aligned upper and lower reed portions with the reed portions being relatively movable in a weft direction. The process includes transferring warp yarns between the reed portions, moving the transferred warp yarns in the weft direction to define a selected array of warp yarns, and then shedding the array of warp yarns for insertion of weft yarn. A weaving loom head is also provided including a reed having vertically aligned upper and lower reed portions, a plurality of healds each releasably engagable with an individual warp yarn for moving selected warp yarns from one reed portion to the other, and a selectively operable drive mechanism for causing relative movement between the reed portions by a predetermined spacing in the weft direction. Weaves may accordingly be produced including warp threads extending parallel to and/or inclined to the fabric take-off direction. Inclination of the warp threads may be in a horizontal and/or vertical plane. The warp yarns are woven with weft yarns that may extend in a direction generally perpendicular to the take-off direction and/or may be inclined in horizontal and/or vertical plane. Also, complex weaves may be produced wherein the weave pattern can be selectively changed as the weaving process progresses. | ||||||
