Description

Method for manufacturing yarn having composite colors and fabric using the same

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing yarn having composite colors and a fabric using the same. By manufacturing a single yarn to have various colors rather than just one, the invention enables a unique and splendid aesthetic when producing clothing and accessories using the fabric, while also allowing the philosophy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements to be applied to the yarn itself and enhancing the functionality of the fabric through separate processing.

[0002]

[0003] Generally, thread is a thin strand made by twisting fibers together; fabric is produced by crossing these threads, and this fabric is used to make various clothing and bedding that we wear, which are then used by everyone.

[0004]

[0005] It is safe to say that the design of most clothing and bedding is determined by how the inherent colors of the threads are arranged. The aesthetic impression perceived by users varies depending on the expression of color, and this is a significant factor in determining purchasing desire.

[0006]

[0007] However, since conventional threads are made of only a single color, only one color can be expressed where a single thread passes. Therefore, although various colored threads are applied to a single fabric to create unique and vibrant designs, this is still insufficient for expressing a wide range of colors and presents the problem of a more complicated manufacturing process.

[0008]

[0009] In addition, there are cases where printing is applied to fabrics such as cotton t-shirts to achieve various colors, but the applicable fabrics are very limited and cannot be applied to a wide variety of fabrics. Furthermore, the printed image washes off during washing, degrades the original texture of the fabric, and has unclear color boundaries when viewed up close.

[0010]

[0011] The present invention was devised to solve the aforementioned problems. Its purpose is to provide a method for manufacturing yarn with composite colors and a fabric utilizing the same, which breaks away from the conventional notion of yarn having a single color and incorporates various colors into a single yarn, thereby providing a fabric imbued with diverse meanings according to the philosophy of Yin-Yang and the Five Elements or the requirements of the manufacturer or client, and which can be applied to various clothing, bedding, musical sari, etc., while possessing a unique and splendid aesthetic.

[0012]

[0013] The present invention is characterized by comprising the steps of: preparing individual yarns having different colors; arranging the prepared individual yarns in a predetermined pattern; and combining the arranged individual yarns to produce a single yarn.

[0014]

[0015] In addition, the method is characterized by the fact that in the step of preparing each of the above single yarns, the colors of the single yarns consist of red, blue, white, yellow, and black, and in the step of arranging them, they are arranged in red, blue, white, yellow, and black, so that the manufactured yarn has the philosophical meaning of the five cardinal colors.

[0016]

[0017] In addition, the colors of the single yarns are composed of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple in the step of preparing each of the above single yarns, and are arranged in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple in the step of arranging, so that the manufactured yarn can contain the symbolism and meaning of the rainbow.

[0018]

[0019] In addition, the thickness of the yarn is all made the same in the step of preparing each of the above single yarns.

[0020]

[0021] In addition, the fabric is characterized by being manufactured using a yarn produced through the method of the present invention in one of the following ways: plain weave, twill weave, satin, jacquard, knit, and jersey.

[0022]

[0023] The present invention has the effect of increasing user satisfaction by manufacturing single yarns of different colors by combining them into a single yarn, thereby eliminating the stereotype of existing yarns having only one color and pursuing design diversity, enabling unique designs and a splendid aesthetic that could not be realized until now, and by imbuing a single yarn with various meanings such as the philosophy of Yin and the Five Elements, the symbolism and meaning of the rainbow, or the requirements of the creator or client.

[0025] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing a method for manufacturing yarn having a composite color according to the present invention.

[0026] FIG. 2 is a drawing showing a yarn in which the ratio of five colors is 1:1:1:1:1 in the yarn manufacturing method of the present invention.

[0027] FIG. 3 is a drawing showing a yarn in which the ratio of five colors is 1:1:2:2:1 in the yarn manufacturing method of the present invention.

[0028] FIGS. 4 and 5 are images showing various forms of results exemplarily illustrated through computer graphics using a fabric manufactured by the method of the present invention.

[0029]

[0030] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Furthermore, in describing the present invention, detailed descriptions of related known functions or configurations are omitted if it is determined that such detailed descriptions may unnecessarily obscure the essence of the present invention.

[0031]

[0032] The method for manufacturing yarn having a composite color according to the present invention is characterized by comprising the steps of: preparing single yarns having different colors as shown in FIG. 1 (S1); arranging the prepared single yarns in a predetermined pattern (S2); and combining the arranged single yarns to produce a single yarn (S3).

[0033]

[0034] The step (S1) of preparing each of the above single yarns is a step (S1) of preparing single yarns having different colors by color. The above single yarn refers to a single strand of small thread. In the case of cotton yarn corresponding to natural fibers, it is preferable to apply a thickness of 20 count to 40 count, and in the case of filament yarn corresponding to synthetic fibers, it is preferable to apply a thickness of 75 denier to 400 denier. If the thickness of the single yarn is excessively thin, there is a problem that it is difficult to express the color, and if it is excessively thick, the yarn may become too thick during the plying process, making manufacturing difficult.

[0035]

[0036] In addition, in the step (S1) of preparing each of the single yarns of the present invention, the colors of the single yarns are composed of red, blue, white, yellow, and black, and in the step (S2) of arranging them, they are arranged in red, blue, white, yellow, and black, so that the manufactured yarn may have the philosophical meaning of the five cardinal colors based on the philosophy of the five directions of sound.

[0037] The meaning of each of the above five colors is as follows.

[0038] 1. Red: South, Summer, Fire, Passion, Energy

[0039] 2. Blue: East, Spring, Wood, Growth, Vitality

[0040] 3. White: West. Autumn, Gold, Purity, Brightness

[0041] 4. Yellow: Center, harmony of the four seasons, Earth, stability, balance

[0042] 5. Black: North, Winter, Water, Depth, Wisdom

[0043]

[0044] The order of the above five cardinal colors may vary depending on the criteria for their respective meanings, but it must, of course, be a form that includes all of the above colors. Therefore, the philosophical meanings of the five cardinal colors, which could not be realized in conventional threads, can be applied to a single thread.

[0045]

[0046] In addition, in the step (S1) of preparing each single yarn, the colors of the single yarns can be made to have not only five colors but seven colors, and the colors of the single yarns are composed of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple, and in the step (S2) of arranging, they are arranged in red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple so that the manufactured yarn can contain the symbolism and meaning of the rainbow.

[0047]

[0048] When arranging the above single filaments in rainbow colors, it goes without saying that the color placement must be accurate according to red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. The rainbow typically carries the symbolism and meaning of luck and hope, and each color has a different meaning, such as red representing passion, love, and energy; orange representing creativity, vitality, and warmth; yellow representing happiness, hope, and wisdom; green representing nature, growth, and harmony; blue representing peace, trust, and truth; indigo representing depth, sincerity, and spirituality; and violet representing creation, mystery, and inspiration.

[0049]

[0050] In the step (S1) of preparing each of the above single yarns, the thickness of the yarns is made to be the same.

[0051]

[0052] The above-mentioned placement step (S2) involves arranging the prepared single yarns in a predetermined pattern, and the placement location is placed in a plied yarn device that produces a single yarn. The placement pattern can be formed according to the order of colors described above. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 2, in the case of the five cardinal colors, each color from the first color to the fifth color can be arranged in order with a color ratio of 1:1:1:1:1, and when multiple single yarns of a specific color are arranged, the yarn produced can be arranged with a color ratio of 1:1:2:2:1 as shown in FIG. 3, and the color arranged in multiples has the effect of being more emphasized compared to other colors.

[0053]

[0054] The step (S3) of producing a single yarn is a process of combining single yarns arranged in a predetermined pattern to produce a single yarn. The combining process is made by twisting the yarns spirally while applying a constant tension in a twisting device. At this time, the twisting direction can be either S-shaped or Z-shaped. At this time, it is preferable that the twisting strength be 300 to 600 T / M.

[0055]

[0056] Furthermore, this invention is a technology in which various colors are applied to a single thread, and threads of specific colors may show discoloration more strongly compared to other colors. Therefore, discoloration may occur more rapidly compared to other colors, especially in cases where color transfer or contaminants are easily visible, such as with white, or in cases where the color is distinct and intense, such as with red and blue.

[0057] To solve this, in the step (S1) of preparing each of the above single yarns, a coating layer may be applied only to the single yarns having a specific color. The coating layer may be a UV blocking coating that prevents discoloration caused by sunlight, a resin coating that prevents discoloration caused by friction, or a waterproof and anti-fouling coating that prevents the absorption of external contaminants.

[0058]

[0059] In order to further enhance functionality, the present invention may be coated in a first coating and a second coating. First, the first coating is formed only on the single yarn having a specific color in the step (S1) of preparing each single yarn, and the second coating is formed on the entire yarn after the step (S3) of producing it as a single yarn.

[0060] When composed of the above first coating and second coating, it is preferable that the first coating be applied as a UV blocking coating, and the second coating be applied as a resin coating or a waterproof and anti-fouling coating.

[0061] It is preferable that the coating solution for the UV blocking coating corresponding to the above first coating be made of titanium dioxide (TiO₂) and zinc oxide (ZnO) as raw materials. In order to prevent color change caused by the coating layer and to further enhance the original color, it is preferable that a dye of the corresponding color be included in the coating solution.

[0062] In addition, since the coating liquid for the second coating is coated over the entire thread, it is desirable to have a transparent color. For the resin coating to improve durability, polyurethane, epoxy resin, or acrylic resin can be used as raw materials, and for the waterproof and anti-fouling coating, silicone or PTFE-based raw materials can be applied.

[0063]

[0064] The above coating methods may include immersion, spray coating, roll coating, nano-coating, and electrospinning. For the first coating, nano-coating or electrospinning is suitable so that the coating layer does not become too thick, and for the second coating, immersion, spray coating, or roll coating is suitable.

[0065]

[0066] The present invention allows for the production of a fabric using the yarn produced in this manner, in any one of the following methods: plain weave, twill weave, satin, jacquard, knit, and jersey. The fabric produced in this way can be applied to a wide variety of products, including clothing and bedding, as well as bags, rugs, carpets, neckties, belts, shoes, various straps, automotive interior materials, curtains, socks, scarves, neck warmers, and various cover materials.

[0067]

[0068] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to the embodiments, it is understood that various modifications are possible within the scope of the technical spirit of the present invention.
