Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a fencing cloth woven from silver-plated conductive wires, which has good electrical conductivity, good toughness, high strength, and can achieve ultra-thin, ultra-flexible, and ultra-light properties. It belongs to the field of fencing cloth manufacturing. Background Technology
[0002] The applicant's prior patent No. 202110587446.9, entitled "Ultra-soft and ultra-thin fencing cloth and manufacturing method," uses 32s high-strength chemical fiber as the core of the conductive yarn. Ni6 flat filaments with a purity of 99.4% are densely wound around the 32s high-strength chemical fiber to form the conductive yarn, and the resistance value of the conductive yarn is no greater than 0.5Ω. In the fencing cloth, the warp yarns are arranged in a staggered pattern: one conductive yarn (8), one 32s high-strength chemical fiber (9), one conductive yarn (8), one 32s high-strength chemical fiber (9), one conductive yarn (8), ... The weft yarns are arranged in a staggered pattern: one transverse conductive yarn (10), eleven parallel 40s high-strength chemical fibers (11), one transverse conductive yarn (10), eleven parallel 40s high-strength chemical fibers (11), ... The conductive cloth is woven using existing fabric weaving techniques. Although the aforementioned background technology is currently the most advanced technology, the applicant believes that there are two problems: First, the diameter of the conductive yarn is still too large, resulting in a heavy fencing cloth with a weight of 600-700 grams per square meter; second, due to the large diameter of the conductive yarn, the flexibility is insufficient, making the fencing uniform bulky and causing stiff fencing movements when worn, which affects the performance of fencing skills and requires further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Design objective: Based on the prior art, to design a fencing cloth with better conductivity, higher conductive yarn strength, finer diameter, and greater flexibility, while also having better conductivity than the prior art.
[0004] Design Scheme: To achieve the aforementioned design objectives, the applicant has been continuously exploring and researching how to reduce the diameter and weight of the conductive yarn while ensuring its strength and reducing its resistance. This would allow the woven conductive fencing cloth to achieve a softness approaching that of ordinary fabrics, resulting in greater user comfort. After several years of dedicated research, experimentation, and testing, the applicant has successfully completed and implemented this research project, namely:
[0005] 1. Selection of Conductive Materials: This utility model uses polyester filament (a type of polyester fiber) as the base material for the conductive yarn, which is one of its technical features. This design is based on the following: The applicant discovered in tests of nearly a hundred materials that polyester fiber has nearly twice the strength of cotton; its heat resistance is between -70℃ and 170℃, making it the synthetic fiber with the best heat resistance and thermal stability. Polyester's elasticity is close to wool, and its wrinkle resistance surpasses other fibers, resulting in wrinkle-free fabrics with good shape retention. Furthermore, polyester's abrasion resistance is second only to nylon, ranking second among synthetic fibers. Polyester also has low moisture regain and good insulation properties. Therefore, in modern life, polyester filament is used in clothing fibers, resulting in wrinkle-free and iron-free fabrics after washing. Polyester is often blended or interwoven with various fibers, such as cotton-polyester and wool-polyester, and is widely used in various clothing and decorative materials. Secondly, polyester is used industrially in conveyor belts, tents, canvas, cables, fishing nets, etc., especially in the production of polyester tire cord, whose performance is close to that of nylon. Thirdly, polyester can also be used in electrical insulation materials, acid-resistant filter cloth, and pharmaceutical textiles. However, no one has used it for conductive yarn cores. This invention takes the opposite approach, utilizing the cold and heat resistance of terephthalic filaments in environments ranging from -70℃ to 170℃. By silver-plating the terephthalic filaments, a non-conductive terephthalic filament is transformed into a silver-plated terephthalic filament with conductivity second only to pure gold, while simultaneously meeting the requirements for high strength and good toughness.
[0006] 2. The use of pure silver as the electroplating material for the terylene filament is the second technical feature of this utility model. The basis for this design is that silver has a conductivity of 0.00000001586 ohms per meter at room temperature, exhibiting excellent conductivity. Therefore, this application uses electroplating of terylene filament to form silver-plated conductive yarn as the yarn for making fencing cloth. The resulting fencing cloth, compared to the prior art, significantly improves the conductivity sensitivity and reliability.
[0007] 3. The design of twisting single or multiple terylene filaments is the third feature of this utility model. The purpose of this design is to improve the strength of the terylene filaments and prevent them from pilling.
[0008] Technical solution: A fencing cloth woven from silver-plated conductive wires, wherein the warp of the fencing cloth is composed of silver-plated conductive wires and TEX filaments, and multiple TEX filaments are interspersed between the silver-plated conductive wires; the weft of the fencing cloth is made of silver-plated conductive wires.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages: First, because the core wire of the conductive yarn has high strength and good toughness, the conductive fabric used in fencing uniforms not only has good resistance and recovery, but also has high conductivity and reliability due to its conductivity of 62.9 × 10⁶ S / m, meaning it conducts immediately upon contact. Second, it is lightweight, reducing the weight of the fencing fabric by about 192 grams per square meter from 600-700 grams per meter in the prior art, achieving a softness similar to cotton. Third, it has good antibacterial and bactericidal effects. Attached Figure Description

The TEX filaments are twisted 6-8 turns / cm to prevent pilling. A silver layer 2 is plated on the surface of the TEX filaments 1 to form silver-plated conductive wires. The warp of the TEX filaments uses 380 / D, 300 / D, 320 / D, or 350 / D TEX filament silver thread, and the weft uses 300 / D, 320 / D, 350 / D, or 380 / D TEX filament silver thread. The fencing cloth is woven using existing weaving techniques to produce a fencing cloth blank, and the back of the fencing cloth blank is calendered to form the front of the fencing cloth.
