Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments for implementing the integrated component according to the present application (hereinafter referred to as "embodiments") will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. Note that the integrated component according to the present application is not limited by these embodiments. In addition, in each of the following embodiments, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals, and duplicate explanations are omitted.

[0011] (Embodiment) [1. Explanation of the Integrated Component] Conventionally, a technique for constructing a textile in which a dye that changes color in response to temperature is mounted is known. For example, a technique for constructing a textile by mounting a temperature-responsive dye on a thread or applying it through screen printing or the like is known.

[0012] However, the discoloration temperature tends to have a width of about 7 to 10 degrees depending on the material, and it may be difficult to detect a minute temperature change. In addition, since it is a color change between two colors, the colors that can be expressed may be limited.

[0013] In addition, since the rate of color change corresponding to a temperature change also depends on the material, the color change rate may become monotonous. Also, since the color tone change follows a sigmoidal Boltzmann formula (for example, formula (14) described in Non-Patent Document 1), it may become monotonous.

[0014] In addition, a method of encapsulating a dye, a developer, etc. in microcapsules is common. By encapsulating in a plurality of microcapsules, multi-step changes become possible, but the aesthetic quality of color expression may be impaired due to light scattering or color interference of the capsules themselves. For example, by mixing dyes with different thresholds or dyes that do not change with temperature, color expression in response to temperature becomes possible, but the color may become cloudy due to the microcapsules.

[0015] In addition, by heating each layer with a laser to provide a discoloration layer in multiple layers, multi-step changes become possible. However, the inside is difficult to warm up, and the response speed to ambient temperature changes becomes low, which may impair the real-time nature of color expression. For example, by multi-layerization (i.e., multi-layerization so that heat is generated only at a specific depth) to absorb only a specific wavelength and generate heat, color bleeding is reduced, but a multi-layerization process and a laser of a specific wavelength are also required, which may increase costs.

[0016] The present application has been made in view of the above, and an object thereof is to provide an integrated component with high aesthetic color change.

[0017] Hereinafter, the case where the integrated component is a textile will be described as an example, but the integrated component may be a thread. For example, the integrated component may be a thread included in a textile (which may be a thread in the concept of warp or weft), or may be a thread for weaving or knitting a textile.

[0018] Hereinafter, as an example of the integrated component according to the embodiment, a textile 100 will be used for explanation. FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram for explaining the surface of the integrated component according to the embodiment. In the textile 100, the surface is designed so that temperature-responsive dye regions having a plurality of different temperature thresholds and color change gradients are exposed. Therefore, in the textile 100, a change in designability is possible with respect to a minute change in temperature.

[0019] "A" and "B" in Figure 1 are yarns exposed on the surface of textile 100. Textile 100 is a textile constructed by tiling temperature-varying yarns "A" and "B" side by side, as shown in Figure 1. Specifically, textile 100 is a textile constructed by plain weaving temperature-varying yarns "A" and "B". The temperature-varying yarns "A" and "B" differ in color, temperature threshold for color change, and rate of color change in response to temperature (due to differences in materials and thermal conductivity). For example, depending on the material and thermal conductivity, some yarns will change color even with the same temperature increase, while others will not. Also, since the exposed surface area changes depending on the weaving or knitting method, more delicate color expression becomes possible compared to conventional technology.

[0020] Similarly, when knitting, the textile 100 may be constructed using multiple types of yarn. Figure 2 is an explanatory diagram illustrating the knitting method according to the embodiment. As shown in Figure 2, the textile 100 may be constructed by knitting two types of yarn. Here, for example, the black-painted yarn corresponds to the temperature-change yarn "A", and the transparent yarn corresponds to the temperature-change yarn "B". For example, the textile 100 may be constructed by knitting the temperature-change yarn "A" and the temperature-change yarn "B" in a 1:1 ratio. Note that the ratio of yarns is not particularly limited to this example.

[0021] In Figure 1, an example is given where textile 100 is constructed using plain weave with temperature-varying yarn "A" and temperature-varying yarn "B". However, the weaving method is not limited to plain weave, and textile 100 may be constructed using any weaving method. Figure 3 is an explanatory diagram for illustrating the weaving methods according to the embodiment. The left diagram of Figure 3 shows plain weave, similar to Figure 1, the middle diagram of Figure 3 shows twill weave, and the right diagram of Figure 3 shows satin weave. Plain weave is a weaving method in which, for example, one warp thread and one weft thread are interwoven alternately, and is characterized by producing a highly durable textile. On the other hand, twill weave is a weaving method in which, for example, two warp threads and two weft threads are skipped before intersecting, and is characterized by producing a supple and lustrous textile. Furthermore, a weaving method in which four warp or weft threads are skipped before intersecting is called five-ply satin, and is characterized by producing a smooth and lustrous textile.

[0022] Here, for example, the blacked-out areas correspond to the temperature-changing yarn "A," and the transparent areas correspond to the temperature-changing yarn "B." For the sake of explanation, only plain weaves are labeled with symbols, but similar symbols may be applied to twill weaves and satin weaves as well. Textile 100 may be composed of a twill weave with temperature-changing yarn "A" and temperature-changing yarn "B," or it may be composed of a satin weave with temperature-changing yarn "A" and temperature-changing yarn "B."

[0023] Figures 4A and 4B are explanatory diagrams (1A) and (1B) illustrating the color change according to the embodiment. Figures 5A and 5B are supplementary diagrams to Figures 4A and 4B, and are explanatory diagrams (2A) and (2B) illustrating the color change according to the embodiment. Figure 4A shows the color change of the surface of a textile using one type of yarn ("A1" temperature-varying yarn). Specifically, Figure 4A shows the color change of a textile (see Figure 5A) composed of "A1" temperature-varying yarns arranged and tiled as shown in Figure 1. Furthermore, in the color change temperature range, the entire surface becomes uniformly transparent as the temperature increases. That is, the "Color Intensity" decreases uniformly across the entire surface. Note that Tc is the phase transition temperature, indicating the temperature at which a transition (such as a color change) occurs.

[0024] Figure 4B shows the color change of the textile surface using three types of yarn ("A1" temperature-dependent yarn, "B1" temperature-dependent yarn, and "C1" temperature-dependent yarn). Specifically, Figure 4B shows the color change of a textile (see Figure 5B) composed of "A1" temperature-dependent yarn, "B1" temperature-dependent yarn, and "C1" temperature-dependent yarn tiled as shown in Figure 1. Furthermore, because each yarn has a different temperature range for discoloration, a checkerboard pattern appears as the temperature rises, and finally it becomes transparent. In other words, the "Color Intensity" decreases separately across the entire surface.

[0025] In Figure 4A, only one type of yarn is tiled, whereas in Figure 4B, three types of yarn are tiled in a checkerboard pattern, so the surface of the textile becomes checkerboard in the temperature range where the temperature changes. Note that, as in Figure 4B, the temperature ranges in which the colors of the three types of yarn change may partially overlap.

[0026] Furthermore, the temperature range for color change may include, for example, the body temperature range of an animal (such as a human). This allows for color changes from within, depending on body temperature. Consequently, it becomes possible to visualize heat flow in an interactive manner in response to the behavior of people and other organisms.

[0027] Furthermore, the temperature range for color change may include temperature ranges due to natural elements such as wind. This makes it possible to change colors due to external natural elements such as wind. Therefore, it becomes possible to visualize the flow of heat in an interactive response to natural elements such as wind. Therefore, it becomes possible to realize fantastical clothing that changes color organically, like a creature that mimics the wind. Examples of clothing include dresses made of multiple layers of lace woven with leuco yarn, and outerwear made of fur material constructed from leuco fibers.

[0028] Figure 6 is an explanatory diagram (3) for illustrating the color change according to the embodiment. Figure 7 is a diagram supplementing Figure 6 and is an explanatory diagram (4) for illustrating the color change according to the embodiment. Figures 4A and 4B show examples where the material gradually becomes transparent as the temperature rises. For example, Figure 4B shows an example where all three types of yarn become transparent. Here, Figure 6 shows the color change of the surface of a textile using two types of yarn ("A2" temperature-change yarn and "B2" temperature-change yarn). Specifically, Figure 6 shows the color change of a textile (see Figure 7) composed of "A2" temperature-change yarn and "B2" temperature-change yarn tiled as shown in Figure 1.

[0029] In Figure 6, one of the two types of yarn ("A2" temperature-dependent yarn) changes from dark to light as the temperature rises, while the other yarn ("B2" temperature-dependent yarn) changes from light to dark as the temperature rises. For example, by changing the "A2" temperature-dependent yarn from black to yellow and the "B2" temperature-dependent yarn from light red to red, at low temperatures, "A2" becomes black and "B2" becomes light red, resulting in a textile that is close to black. At high temperatures, "A2" becomes yellow and "B2" becomes red, resulting in an orange textile. At medium temperatures, "A2" becomes green, an intermediate color between black and yellow, and "B2" becomes pink, resulting in a textile that is close to yellow, which can be applied to displays such as heatstroke alerts. In this way, when multiple yarns change color at different temperatures, combining these multiple yarns can express complex intermediate colors depending on the temperature, resulting in a textile that changes subtly.

[0030] Here, the structure of the integrated component according to the embodiment will be described. The textile 100 is composed of yarns (corresponding to multiple components) whose manner of color change differs depending on temperature changes. For example, as shown in Figure 6, the textile 100 is composed of yarns with different color changes. Alternatively, as shown in Figure 4B, the textile 100 is composed of yarns with different color change thresholds (e.g., temperature ranges). In this case, as shown in Figure 4B, the color change thresholds may partially overlap. In this case, a more continuous color change can be expressed compared to a textile where the color change thresholds do not partially overlap. Alternatively, as shown in Figure 4B, the textile 100 is composed of yarns with different color change rates.

[0031] Furthermore, the textile 100 is configured so that different threads are exposed in different areas. For example, the textile 100 may be configured so that one type of thread is exposed by arranging one type of thread as shown in Figure 4A, or so that three types of threads are exposed by arranging three types of threads as shown in Figure 4B, or so that two types of threads are exposed by arranging two types of threads as shown in Figure 6.

[0032] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be constructed so that the exposure density of exposed yarn differs from area to area. For example, even when three types of yarn are used as shown in Figure 4B, if the textile is constructed so that there are more yarns with temperature changes, such as "A1", the exposure density of the yarns with temperature changes, such as "A1", will be high. Similarly, if the textile is constructed so that there are more yarns with temperature changes, such as "B1", the exposure density of the yarns with temperature changes, such as "B1", will be high, and if the textile is constructed so that there are more yarns with temperature changes, such as "C1", the exposure density of the yarns with temperature changes, such as "C1", will be high. In this way, the exposure density may be adjusted for each area. For example, this is the case when the textile 100 is constructed using a twill weave or satin weave as shown in Figure 3.

[0033] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be configured such that the exposed area of ​​each exposed thread is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold. For example, in the textile 100, the exposed area of ​​exposed threads may be adjusted to produce a color change effect. Also, the color change of threads hidden on the back may be controlled by the threads exposed on the surface. In other words, it may be possible to express not only the color of the threads exposed on the surface, but also the color of the threads hidden on the back, using the threads exposed on the surface. For example, the presence of highly reflective threads on the back can change the design of the threads exposed on the surface and the overall design of the textile. The design of the textile 100 may be adjustable by the reflection of light due to the exposure of threads (for example, by the reflection of light based on the exposed area and the selection of exposed threads).

[0034] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be configured such that the distance between exposed threads on the surface is within a predetermined threshold. For example, in the textile 100, the distance between exposed threads may be adjusted to the extent that a color change is visible.

[0035] Next, variations in the structure of the integrated component according to the embodiment will be described. The first color yarn and second color yarn described below correspond to yarns with different temperature changes. The textile 100 may be a textile that includes the first color yarn and second color yarn, which are made by cutting the first color film and the second color film into yarn shapes, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7520947 (see Figures 5A-C), and is constructed by weaving or knitting these foil yarns.

[0036] Furthermore, the textile 100 may also be a textile comprising, for example, a first textile comprising a first color yarn (by weaving or knitting, for example) and a second textile comprising a second color yarn (by weaving or knitting, for example) (by overlapping or bonding, for example), as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7520948 (see Figures 6A-D).

[0037] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be a textile constructed by cutting a film, which is composed of a first-color film and a second-color film (for example, by overlapping or laminating them), into threads to create foil threads containing the first and second colors, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7520950 (see Figures 1A-D), and incorporating these foil threads (for example, by weaving or knitting). However, the textile 100 is not limited to being constructed based on a film in which a film layer containing the first color and a film layer containing the second color are laminated, but may also be constructed based on a film in which the first and second colors are mixed (for example, blended or kneaded) into either of the film layers.

[0038] Furthermore, textile 100 may be a textile that includes yarn composed of a first color yarn and a second color yarn (for example, by twisting or spiral winding them together) as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7438169 (see Figure 4B), and is constructed by weaving or knitting it. For example, textile 100 may be a textile that includes yarn in which the first color and the second color are layered concentrically by twisting (or spiral winding) the first color yarn and the second color yarn together, and is constructed by weaving or knitting it.

[0039] Generally, core-spun structures are constructed by twisting a high-strength core yarn around which other yarns surround it. This structure allows for adjustments such as elasticity and thermal conductivity. By constructing textiles with a core-spun structure, they can be used in products requiring high durability and flexibility. Furthermore, in the case of flat shapes such as films, which may not be woven on looms, the ability to construct textiles using twisted yarns opens up a wider range of applications. In addition, when the exposed area is determined by the twisted yarn unit, the design can sometimes be controlled by the yarn itself. Since a wide range of tonal expression is possible with the yarn itself, including yarns capable of different tonal expressions can expand the possibilities of tonal expression in textiles.

[0040] Furthermore, in the case of film-based yarns, for example, it may be necessary to control the textile structure so that the dyed side faces outwards by placing the dye on one side of the film surface. In the case of film yarns, it may be necessary to devise a method to eliminate the need to consider the front and back by forming multiple layers, coating both sides with dyed film, cutting, and twisting the yarn. On the other hand, one example of the advantages of film-based yarns is the superiority of placement. For example, in the case of twisted yarns, the dye may be placed in the twisted parts, potentially reducing visibility, whereas film yarns have a flat structure, making it easy to place the dye perpendicular to the surface.

[0041] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be a textile that includes yarns in which the first color and the second color are layered concentrically, for example, by covering the first color yarn with the second color (or the second color yarn with the first color), as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7438169 (see Figure 4A) (for example, by weaving or knitting).

[0042] Furthermore, the textile 100 may be a textile that includes yarn in which the first and second colors are layered concentrically by mixing (or kneading) the second color into the first color yarn, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 7438169 (see Figure 4C), for example (by weaving or knitting).

[0043] Furthermore, the integrated components according to the embodiment may include components that control the thermal properties and temperature of the integrated components. By using components with different thermal conductivity, the thermal properties can be changed, and desired design characteristics can be achieved. In addition, by combining heaters, coolers, etc., the temperature can be controlled locally, and even more complex color changes become possible.

[0044] [2. System for Estimating Integrated Components] Below, as an example of how the integrated component according to the embodiment may be used, an estimation system for the integrated component will be described. Hereafter, it will be described as estimation system 1 as appropriate.

[0045] Estimation System 1 can be used, for example, as a sales tool when introducing integrated components such as Textile 100. For example, Estimation System 1 may be used with technologies that allow intuitive manipulation of digital objects in real space, such as MR (Mixed Reality) devices. By displaying the completed Textile 100 using an MR device, it becomes possible to simulate what Textile 100 will look like when completed.

[0046] The estimation system 1 will be explained using Figure 8. As shown in Figure 8, the estimation system 1 includes a user terminal 10 and an estimation device 20. The user terminal 10 and the estimation device 20 are connected to each other via a predetermined communication network (network N) by wired or wireless means. Figure 8 is a diagram showing an example configuration of the estimation system 1 according to an embodiment. Note that the estimation system 1 shown in Figure 8 may include multiple user terminals 10 and multiple estimation devices 20.

[0047] The user terminal 10 is an information processing device used by the user. For example, it is used by users who wish to intuitively grasp the shape, size, and appearance of the textile 100. For example, it is used by users who wish to know in advance how the color tone will change and what the intermediate colors will look like by adjusting the range of color change of the yarn, the thickness of the yarn, etc.

[0048] The user terminal 10 can be any device as long as it can perform the processing described in the embodiment. Furthermore, the user terminal 10 may be a smartphone, tablet, notebook PC, desktop PC, mobile phone, PDA, microcontroller, or other device.

[0049] The estimation device 20 is an information processing device intended to estimate the completed form of integrated components, such as textiles 100, so that users can intuitively grasp the shape, size, and appearance of the integrated components. For example, the estimation device 20 accepts specifications such as the range of color variation of the yarn and the thickness of the yarn. For example, the estimation device 20 accepts specifications such as the range of color variation and the thickness of the yarn for at least two different colors of yarn.

[0050] For example, the estimation device 20 estimates the color changes and intermediate colors of the textile 100 under the specified conditions. The estimation device 20 is implemented by, for example, a server device or cloud system that provides a predetermined service to display the finished state of the textile 100 using MR technology so that the user can intuitively understand the textile 100.

[0051] Although Figure 8 shows a case where the user terminal 10 and the estimation device 20 are separate devices, the user terminal 10 and the estimation device 20 may be integrated into a single unit.
