Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sports fabric technology, and in particular relates to a lightweight and moisture-wicking sports fabric. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of outdoor sports and the increasing popularity of high-intensity activities such as marathons, football, and basketball, people are increasingly drawn to these activities. These intense sports often involve profuse sweating, leaving noticeable sweat stains on clothing, which are unsightly and negatively impact the wearing experience. Furthermore, with advancements in textile technology, the concept of sweat-free fabrics (i.e., fabrics that leave no visible sweat marks) has emerged in recent years. Currently, sports fabrics with sweat-free functionality generally fall into two categories: one is fabrics weighing over 180g, offering good UV protection and quick-drying properties. These fabrics tend to be thicker, not ultra-lightweight, and have poor breathability. The other category is cotton-based sweat-free fabrics containing cotton fibers. These fabrics offer excellent sweat-free functionality, with good UV protection, snag resistance, and pilling resistance. However, these fabrics have poorer quick-drying properties and are also relatively heavy. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a lightweight, moisture-wicking sports fabric that can solve at least one of the above problems.
[0004] According to one aspect of the present invention, a lightweight, moisture-wicking sports fabric is provided, comprising a fabric body. The fabric body is made of ultra-matte polyester DTY yarn with a denier (D) of 20-30D and an filament (F) of 24-36F. The fabric body has a weft double-sided structure consisting of two knitting needles and two yarns forming a complete cycle. The yarn arrangement of the fabric body is two yarns per cycle, with each yarn using ultra-matte polyester DTY yarn with the same denier (D) and filament (F) of the same type.
[0005] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The fabric body is made of ultra-matte polyester DTY yarn with a denier of 20-30D and an filament number of 24-36F. Therefore, the 20-30D fine denier polyester yarn can ensure that the fabric is ultra-lightweight and thin, and the 24-36F yarn can ensure that the fabric is soft and comfortable to the touch. The fabric body adopts a corresponding weave structure and yarn arrangement method, which makes the fabric body ultra-lightweight, breathable, anti-snagging, and anti-pilling. In addition, the fabric body has a good moisture absorption effect and can achieve a quick-drying effect.
[0006] In some embodiments, the needle arrangement during weaving of the fabric body is as follows: upper needle plate 21 and lower needle cylinder 12 are arranged. This facilitates the fulfillment of the weaving requirements of the fabric body, resulting in a thinner overall fabric body.
[0007] In some embodiments, the cross-section of the polyester DTY yarn in the fabric body is cross-shaped, Y-shaped, triangular, or hexagonal. This irregular cross-section allows the yarn to quickly absorb sweat, achieving a quick-drying effect.
[0008] In some implementations, the yarn feed rate during weaving of the fabric body is 15-17 cm, calculated based on the length of 100 loops. This results in a fabric with a certain degree of elasticity and resilience after weaving.
[0009] In some embodiments, the longitudinal density (cpi) of the fabric body is 32–40, the transverse density (wpi) is 27–33, and the weight of the fabric body is 60–80 g / m². 2 As a result, the overall fabric weight is low, much lower than that of existing conventional fabrics, achieving a lightweight effect and improving wearing comfort. At the same time, the corresponding transverse and longitudinal densities ensure that the fabric meets the corresponding elasticity requirements in both the transverse and longitudinal directions. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Figure 1 This is a triangle diagram illustrating the weaving process of a lightweight, moisture-wicking sports fabric. Detailed Implementation
[0011] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0012] Reference Figure 1 A lightweight, moisture-wicking sports fabric includes a fabric body made of ultra-matte, irregularly shaped cross-section polyester DTY (Drawn-texturing yarn) yarn with a denier (D) of 20-30D and an filament (F) of 24-36F. The fabric body has a weft double-sided structure consisting of two knitting needles and two yarns forming a complete cycle. The ultra-matte, irregularly shaped cross-section polyester DTY yarn can have a non-circular irregular cross-section such as a cross, Y, triangle, or hexagon, facilitating quick moisture absorption and drying.
[0013] Because the fabric body is made of ultra-matte polyester DTY yarn with a denier of 20-30D and an alpha number of 24-36F, the 20-30D fine denier polyester yarn can ensure that the fabric is ultra-lightweight and thin, and the 24-36F can ensure that the fabric is soft and comfortable to the touch.
[0014] In practical use, to achieve a sweat-free effect, TiO2 is added to the ultra-matte profiled polyester DTY yarn. The TiO2 content is 10% to 14%, and the TiO2 is evenly dispersed in the yarn. The TiO2 content is much higher than that of ordinary matte polyester, and it is evenly dispersed in the yarn. Therefore, there will be no clumping or powdering problems during use, which ensures that there are no quality problems such as uneven color absorption after dyeing. This avoids the problem of sweat pooling in certain areas and forming obvious dark areas after sweating, as is the case with traditional fibers.
[0015] In the fabric body of this invention, due to the high concentration of TiO2 in the ultra-matte profiled polyester DTY yarn, the fabric surface can diffuse sweat more quickly and distribute it evenly. In addition, the light scattering effect weakens the color difference between wet and dry areas. Therefore, even with heavy sweating, the clothes still look clean, thus presenting a sweat-free effect. Furthermore, TiO2 itself has excellent ultraviolet absorption and reflection properties, and the fabric can easily achieve a UPF 50+ protection effect. Unlike the sun protection effect achieved after finishing, this yarn's inherent function will not be diminished by washing or sun exposure, greatly improving the overall durability of the fabric.
[0016] The fabric body is knitted with the following needle arrangement: upper needle plate 21 and lower needle cylinder 12.
[0017] The yarn arrangement of the fabric body is as follows: two lines in one cycle, each line selecting the same D number and F number of ultra-matte special cross section polyester DTY yarn.
[0018] The yarn feed rate during weaving of the fabric body is 15-17cm, calculated based on the length of 100 loops. Therefore, the woven fabric has excellent elasticity and is comfortable to wear.
[0019] The fabric's longitudinal density (cpi) is 32–40, and its transverse density (wpi) is 27–33. This ensures that the fabric's longitudinal and transverse densities meet the corresponding wearing requirements and provide adequate resilience in both directions. The fabric's weight is 60–80 g / m². 2 The fabric itself has a higher weight than existing conventional fabrics, making it lightweight and improving wearing comfort.
[0020] When knitting the fabric of this utility model, the yarn is knitted in a double-sided circular knitting machine with 40-50 needles, a bobbin diameter of 34-38 inches, and 84-96 rows using the aforementioned yarn arrangement, needle arrangement, weave structure, and yarn feed rate. This results in a high-needle-count weft-knitted structure. Tested according to the ISO tensile test method BS EN 14704-120N, the fabric exhibits a longitudinal elongation of 50-70% and a transverse elongation of 130-160%, demonstrating excellent tensile elasticity. This results in a fabric with good tensile elasticity and comfortable wear. The fabric also meets the snag resistance standard GB / T 11047, achieving level 4, indicating excellent snag resistance. The 4802.2 Martindale method for pilling resistance (4000 revolutions) shows a pilling level of 4, indicating excellent anti-pilling performance. The fabric's weight of 60-80g makes it ultra-lightweight. Furthermore, it meets the national standards for moisture wicking and quick-drying (GB / T21655.1-2023 and GB / T 21655.2-2023), achieving level III, demonstrating excellent moisture wicking and quick-drying properties.
[0021] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
