Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of imitation leather fabric technology, specifically to an imitation leather fabric. Background Technology
[0002] Imitation leather fabric is a man-made synthetic material that has a texture and feel similar to natural leather. It is typically made of polyurethane, polyvinyl chloride, or other polymers. These materials are soft, durable, and relatively inexpensive, making them widely used in the production of various furniture, clothing, and footwear. In the clothing industry, imitation leather fabric is often used to make coats, trousers, skirts, and other garments. Its moderate price and ease of processing make it popular with consumers. Currently, imitation leather fabrics with a woven fabric base are relatively soft and do not quite match the feel of natural leather. Furthermore, they are prone to wrinkling and deformation after prolonged use, which limits their application in the high-end market to some extent. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a faux leather fabric that solves the problems of existing faux leather fabrics with woven fabric as the base being relatively soft, having a certain difference in feel from natural leather, and being prone to wrinkles and deformation after prolonged use, which to some extent limits their application in the high-end market.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: a faux leather fabric, comprising a polyester microfiber base layer, wherein a woven mesh fabric is embedded inside the polyester microfiber base layer, a foam layer is provided on the top of the polyester microfiber base layer, a PU coating is provided on the top of the foam layer, a decorative layer is provided on the top of the PU coating, and a faux leather texture is provided on the top of the decorative layer.
[0005] Preferably, the bottom of the polyester microfiber base layer is provided with a memory fiber layer.
[0006] Preferably, the top of the decorative layer is provided with a wear-resistant coating.
[0007] Preferably, a waterproof coating layer is provided at the bottom of the memory fiber layer.
[0008] Preferably, polyester yarns are evenly spaced inside the woven mesh fabric, and spandex yarns are evenly spaced inside the woven mesh fabric, with the polyester yarns and spandex yarns spaced apart.
[0009] This utility model provides a faux leather fabric. It has the following beneficial effects: This faux leather fabric, through the combination of a polyester microfiber base layer, a woven mesh fabric, a foam layer, a PU coating, a decorative layer, and a faux leather texture, achieves superior support and resilience by incorporating a woven mesh fabric with excellent elasticity within the polyester microfiber base layer and a foam layer within the faux leather fabric. Furthermore, a PU coating is formed on top of the foam layer by uniformly coating with polyurethane resin, followed by coloring and embossing. This enhances the faux leather fabric's wear resistance, scratch resistance, and water and stain resistance, providing protection and allowing it to more closely resemble the feel of real leather. It also ensures the faux leather fabric maintains its shape and texture over long-term use, thus improving its market competitiveness.
[0010] By combining a polyester microfiber base layer and a memory fiber layer, a memory fabric with shape memory function is set at the bottom of the polyester microfiber base layer. Utilizing the shape memory function and recovery ability under specific conditions of the memory fabric, the imitation leather fabric can be precisely shaped during processing. When the imitation leather fabric product is deformed, it can quickly return to its original shape under specific environmental conditions. This helps with the shaping and subsequent maintenance of the imitation leather fabric during production and application. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0016] In the existing technology, imitation leather fabrics with woven fabric as the base are relatively soft and have a certain difference in feel compared to natural leather. Moreover, they are prone to wrinkles and deformation after long-term use, which limits their application in the high-end market to some extent.
[0017] In view of this, the present invention provides a faux leather fabric. Through the combination of a polyester microfiber base layer, a woven mesh fabric, a foam layer, a PU coating, a decorative layer, and a faux leather texture, the faux leather fabric gains stronger support and resilience by incorporating a woven mesh fabric with excellent resilience inside the polyester microfiber base layer and a foam layer inside the faux leather fabric. Furthermore, a PU coating is formed on the top of the foam layer by uniformly coating with polyurethane resin, followed by coloring and embossing. This improves the faux leather fabric's wear resistance, scratch resistance, and water and stain resistance, providing protection and allowing it to more closely resemble the feel of real leather. It also ensures that the faux leather fabric maintains its shape and texture over long-term use, thereby enhancing its market competitiveness.
[0018] Those skilled in the art should connect all electrical components and their compatible power supplies in this case via wires. Appropriate controllers and encoders should be selected according to the actual situation to meet control requirements. The specific connection and control sequence should refer to the working principle described below, where the electrical components are connected in sequence. The detailed connection methods are well-known in the art. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process, and will not describe the electrical control further.
[0019] Depend on Figure 1-3 It is known that a faux leather fabric includes a polyester microfiber base layer 1, an internally embedded woven mesh fabric 2, a foam layer 3 on top of the polyester microfiber base layer 1, the foam layer 3 being the middle layer structure of the faux leather fabric, the interior of which is filled with countless tiny air bubbles, reducing the overall weight of the faux leather fabric while giving it a certain degree of support and resilience, a PU coating 4 on top of the foam layer 3, a decorative layer 5 on top of the PU coating 4, and a faux leather texture 6 on top of the decorative layer 5.
[0020] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that through the combination of polyester microfiber base layer 1 and woven mesh fabric 2, polyester microfiber is used as the base layer of the imitation leather fabric, and a layer of woven mesh fabric 2 with excellent resilience is set inside the polyester microfiber base layer 1, which improves the overall strength and elasticity of the imitation leather fabric. The woven mesh fabric 2, with its dense and tough warp and weft interweaving structure, provides additional support and elasticity to the fabric, effectively preventing stretching deformation that may occur in daily use and improving the stability of the imitation leather fabric. The foam layer 3 is the middle layer structure of the imitation leather fabric, and its interior is filled with countless tiny air bubbles, which reduces the overall weight of the imitation leather fabric while giving it a certain degree of support and resilience. Through the combination of PU coating 4, decorative layer 5 and imitation leather texture 6, the top layer structure of the imitation leather fabric is formed. The PU coating 4 is the surface layer of the imitation leather fabric. By uniformly coating polyurethane resin material on the top of the foam layer 3, a PU coating 4 is formed on the top of the imitation leather fabric, improving the wear and scratch resistance of the imitation leather fabric. The waterproof and stain-resistant properties provide protection for the imitation leather fabric. Coloring and embossing on the surface of the PU coating 4 create a delicate and realistic leather texture and color, making the imitation leather fabric closer to the texture and aesthetics of natural leather. Through the combination of the polyester microfiber base layer 1, woven mesh fabric 2, foam layer 3, PU coating 4, decorative layer 5, and imitation leather texture 6, the fabric achieves enhanced support and resilience. A layer of woven mesh fabric 2 with excellent resilience is placed inside the polyester microfiber base layer 1, while the foam layer 3 inside the imitation leather fabric provides stronger support and resilience. A polyurethane resin material is evenly coated on top of the foam layer 3, forming the PU coating 4 on top of the imitation leather fabric. Coloring and embossing further improve the wear resistance, scratch resistance, waterproof and stain-resistant properties of the imitation leather fabric, providing protection and allowing it to more closely resemble the feel of real leather. This ensures the imitation leather fabric maintains its shape and texture over long-term use, enhancing its market competitiveness.
[0021] Furthermore, a memory fiber layer 7 is provided at the bottom of the polyester microfiber base layer 1;
[0022] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that, through the cooperation between the polyester microfiber base layer 1 and the memory fiber layer 7, a layer of memory fabric with shape memory function is set at the bottom of the polyester microfiber base layer 1. By utilizing the shape memory function and recovery ability under specific conditions of the memory fabric, the imitation leather fabric can be precisely shaped during processing. When the imitation leather fabric product is deformed, it can quickly return to its original shape under specific environmental conditions, which facilitates the shaping and subsequent maintenance of the imitation leather fabric during production and application.
[0023] Furthermore, a wear-resistant coating 8 is provided on the top of the decorative layer 5;
[0024] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that by combining the decorative layer 5 and the wear-resistant coating 8, by adding wear-resistant agents such as nano-silica and corundum to the polyurethane coating and uniformly coating the PU coating 4, the surface of the PU coating 4 is formed with the wear-resistant coating 8, thereby improving the wear resistance of the imitation leather fabric.
[0025] Furthermore, a waterproof coating layer 9 is provided at the bottom of the memory fiber layer 7;
[0026] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that by combining the memory fiber layer 7 and the waterproof coating layer 9, and by setting a coating on the inside of the imitation leather fabric, the waterproof performance of the imitation leather fabric on the inside is improved, ensuring that water cannot penetrate into the fabric, effectively resisting stains and liquid erosion, improving the convenience of daily cleaning, and extending the service life of the fabric.
[0027] Furthermore, polyester yarns 10 are evenly spaced inside the woven mesh fabric 2, and spandex yarns 11 are evenly spaced inside the woven mesh fabric 2, with the polyester yarns 10 and spandex yarns 11 spaced apart.
[0028] In the specific implementation process, it is worth noting that through the cooperation between the woven mesh fabric 2, polyester yarn 10 and spandex yarn 11, the woven mesh fabric 2 is made of polyester yarn 10 and spandex yarn 11 interwoven, which gives the woven mesh fabric 2 excellent elasticity and toughness, thereby ensuring the support strength and resilience of the imitation leather fabric.
