AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
Traditional insulating garments are costly, time-intensive to produce due to multiple materials and processes, have high energy consumption, and limited recyclability, and ensuring consistent visual elements across garments leads to material waste.
Method used
The use of composite nonwoven fabrics with nonlinear interlaced seams, formed through an entanglement system that aligns layers of laminate constructs with entanglement stations and entanglement heads, eliminating the need for adhesives and seams, and allowing for varied visual arrangements and recyclability.
Benefits of technology
The method reduces manufacturing costs and carbon footprint, enhances recyclability, and minimizes material waste by using fewer materials and enabling diverse visual designs across garments.

Abstract
To provide a composite nonwoven textile including nonlinear entangled seams; and to provide a method and a system for producing the same.SOLUTION: A composite nonwoven textile 100 includes a first nonwoven layer 110, a second layer 114, and a filling material 116 positioned between the first nonwoven layer and the second layer. When the composite nonwoven textile is formed into a garment, a region between nonlinear entangled seams 118 is helpful in storing and retaining heat to be capable of providing heat insulation. In addition, the nonlinear entangled seams can be helpful in preventing the filling material from shifting or drifting.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
