Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to curtain fabrics, and more specifically, to a mildew-resistant curtain fabric. Background Technology

[0002] Curtains are an essential home item. They not only serve a decorative purpose but also provide sun protection, making them suitable for a wide range of situations.

[0003] Some curtains are made of cotton and linen. Cotton fibers have good moisture absorption, which can absorb moisture from the air, prevent excessive dampness, and maintain a comfortable indoor environment. However, cotton fibers have relatively weak moisture wicking properties, resulting in curtains that are generally damp. In order to ensure the light-blocking properties of the curtains, they are generally thick, which makes it difficult for moisture inside the curtains to dissipate, making them prone to the growth of bacteria and mold. Furthermore, cotton fibers themselves do not have antibacterial properties, resulting in the overall weak antibacterial properties of the curtain fabric.

[0004] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a mildew-proof curtain fabric.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a mildew-proof curtain fabric, comprising a base layer and a moisture-wicking layer, wherein the thickness of the moisture-wicking layer is one-third of the thickness of the base layer, the moisture-wicking layer is formed by warp and weft yarns, both of which include moisture-absorbing yarns, the base layer is formed by four-needle knitting, and its pattern is four rows in one cycle, wherein the loop of the second needle of the third row is looped on the loop of the second needle of the first row to form a single needle single row tuft and a breathable area is formed at the position of the second needle of the second row, and antibacterial yarn is padded on the first and fourth rows of the base layer.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that both the warp and weft yarns include structural yarns, and the moisture-absorbing yarns and structural yarns are evenly arranged in a ratio of three to two.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: a moisture-absorbing part is formed at the junction of the warp and weft yarns, and the diameter of the moisture-absorbing yarn is larger than the diameter of the structural yarn.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the moisture-absorbing yarn is made of several Lyocell fibers twisted together.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the moisture-absorbing yarn is provided with several bamboo sections.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that the antibacterial yarn is made of several bamboo fibers twisted together.

[0012] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects: the moisture-wicking layer receives ample sunlight and has good gas circulation, allowing moisture to dissipate more easily than the base layer. Furthermore, the thinner moisture-wicking layer receives sufficient sunlight, resulting in faster drying. Due to the good hygroscopic properties of the absorbent yarn, after drying, the moisture in the base layer can be absorbed and transferred to the moisture-wicking layer for removal. Simultaneously, the increased air circulation through the breathable areas facilitates moisture evaporation around these areas, further accelerating the drying process and effectively inhibiting the growth and reproduction of bacteria and mold. This gives the curtains good antibacterial properties. The antibacterial yarn in the lining enhances the antibacterial performance between the breathable areas of the base layer, ensuring a good overall antibacterial effect for the curtains and preventing mold growth.

[0018] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0019] See Figure 1-3As shown, an anti-mildew curtain fabric includes a base layer 1 and a moisture-wicking layer 2, with the thickness of the moisture-wicking layer 2 being one-third the thickness of the base layer 1. The moisture-wicking layer 2 is formed by warp and weft yarns, both of which include absorbent yarns 5. The base layer 1 is formed by a four-needle weave, with a pattern of four rows per cycle. The loop of the second stitch of the third row is looped on the loop of the second stitch of the first row to form a single-needle single-row tuck, creating a breathable area 3 at the position of the second stitch of the second row. Antibacterial yarn 4 is padded on both the first and fourth rows of the base layer 1. The antibacterial yarn 4 is made of twisted bamboo fibers, which have natural antibacterial properties, giving the base layer 1 a good antibacterial effect. During curtain installation, ensure that the moisture-wicking layer 2 faces the window side and the base layer 1 faces the inside of the room. The outside of the curtain is exposed to moisture. With ample sunlight and good air circulation, the moisture in the moisture-wicking layer 2 evaporates more easily than that in the base layer 1. Furthermore, the thinner moisture-wicking layer 2 receives sufficient sunlight, allowing it to dry quickly. The absorbent yarn 5 has good hygroscopic properties; once the moisture in the moisture-wicking layer 2 has evaporated, it can absorb moisture from the base layer 1 and transfer it to the moisture-wicking layer 2 for removal. Simultaneously, the ventilation points 3 increase air circulation on the base layer 1, facilitating moisture evaporation around them and accelerating the drying process. This effectively inhibits the growth and reproduction of bacteria and mold, giving the curtains good antibacterial properties. The antibacterial yarn 4 further enhances the antibacterial performance between the ventilation points 3 on the base layer 1, ensuring the overall antibacterial effect of the curtains and preventing mold growth.

[0020] See Figure 3-4 As shown, both the warp and weft yarns include structural yarns 6, and the moisture-absorbing yarns 5 and structural yarns 6 are evenly arranged in a ratio of 3:2. The moisture-absorbing yarns 5 occupy a large area on the moisture-wicking layer 2, giving the moisture-wicking layer 2 a better moisture-absorbing effect. A moisture-absorbing part 7 is formed at the junction of the warp and weft yarns, and the diameter of the moisture-absorbing yarns 5 is larger than the diameter of the structural yarns 6. Therefore, the moisture-absorbing part 7 formed by the stacking of moisture-absorbing yarns 5 protrudes upwards compared to the rest of the moisture-wicking layer 2. After the moisture-wicking layer 2 is combined with the base layer 1, the protruding part of the moisture-absorbing part 7 has a large contact area with the base layer 1, thereby further improving the contact area between the moisture-wicking layer 2 and the base layer 1. The moisture absorption efficiency is achieved by twisting several Lyocell fibers into the moisture-absorbing yarn 5. Lyocell fibers have strong moisture absorption properties, which gives the moisture-wicking layer 2 a good moisture absorption effect. Several slub sections 8 are set on the moisture-absorbing yarn 5. The moisture-absorbing yarn 5 is formed by adding a device to an ordinary spinning machine to change the speed or stop the front roller, thereby changing the normal draft ratio. By setting the slub sections 8, the distance between the moisture-absorbing yarns 5 and between the moisture-absorbing yarns 5 and the structural yarn 6 can be increased, thereby increasing the air flow between the moisture-wicking layers 2, and further improving the drying rate of the moisture-wicking layer 2.

[0021] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
