A novel method of tufting carpets is provided to allow the use of four or more colors of yarn at sufficient stitch density to provide for a solid appearance of any of the selected colors at any location on the carpet, and utilizing natural tacking of rear yarns to minimize loose yarn on the backing.

Tufted carpets bonded with thermoplastic binders and having improved resistance to fuzz formation due to removal of pile yarn filaments from tuft bundles comprise one or more backings, face yarn that forms a pile on one side and stitches on an opposite side, a thermoplastic binder that binds stitches and the backing or backings, and an organic polymer that bonds filaments of the stitches. Processes for making carpets comprise applying to a stitched side of a tufted backing a liquid stitch bind composition comprising an organic polymer component, removing a liquid component of the composition to bond filaments of the stitches and bonding stitches and one or more backings with a thermoplastic binder that is melted or applied as a melt in contact with the stitched side and the backing or backings and solidified.

A slipcover includes a fitted, semi-fitted or unfitted sheet of fabric and a decorative and padded multi-layered component integrated with the sheet of fabric in selected locations. The multi-layered component includes a cushion material and at least a top layer of material. The multi-layered component of fabric and cushion material is tufted, quilted, or assembled such that the layers are secured in position to provide an aesthetic quality to the slipcover. The multi-layered component and the sheet of fabric are integrated either by attachment, or by replacement or substitution of portions of the sheet of fabric with the multi-layered component. The multi-layered component can also be removable.

The invention relates to a method and a device for manufacturing a color tufting product, belonging to the technical field for manufacturing the color tufting product. The solved technical problem in the invention is to provide the method and the device for manufacturing the tufting product with colorful jacquards, wherein high piles of the tufting product completely cover low piles; the technical scheme for solving the technical problem is as follows: a non-vector pattern is adopted and a tufting faller or a tufting base cloth is scanned line by line according to pattern pixel points rearranged in rows when at different positions, each tufting faller corresponds to effective pixel points and invalid pixel points at different positions in each tufting process, so that high-feed piles and low-feed piles are in non-linear distribution on the surface of the tufting product; and the method and the device are mainly used for manufacturing the color tufting product.

The invention concerns an improved tufting machine which comprises a tufting head translatable within said tufting machine in X- and Y-directions with respect to backing fabric by means of a movement system. The tufting head comprises a tufting mechanism having a cyclic mode of operation, a hollow needle mounted in the tufting mechanism that is moveable relative to a cooperating foot in a reciprocating manner to insert a tuft of yam into backing fabric in each cycle, a yarn supply mechanism mounted in the tufting mechanism and operable to supply a length of yam to the hollow needle in each cycle, a yarn cutter mounted in the tufting head that is selectively operable to cut the length of yam in selected cycles to produce loop or cut pile, and a computer-operated motion control system.

The invention provides a tufted carpet and a manufacturing method thereof, wherein, the tufted carpet comprises a first base cloth made of regenerated polyester fiber; an adhesive layer provided on the lower surface of the first substrate, the adhesive layer being formed by melting of regenerated PET powder; tufted pile, arranged on the upper surface of the first base cloth, the root of tufted pile passing through the first base cloth downward and fixed with the first base cloth through an adhesive layer, the tufted pile being formed of regenerated polyester yarn; a second base cloth fixed onthe lower surface of the first base cloth by an adhesive layer, and the second base cloth is made of regenerated polyester. The scheme of the invention can effectively solve the problem that the tufted carpet in the prior art cannot be recycled and reused.

The invention relates to a system and a method for processing an electric cam transverse type tufted carpet with on-line flower shape updating. A hardware platform which comprises an industrial computer, a servo controller, a servo motor, a photoelectric encoder, an external control card and a bus communication converter is utilized to design a transverse flower shape, transverse cam control curves can be automatically converted, the control curves can be finally downloaded in an on-line way, and at most 8 transverse flower shape curves can be stored in the servo controller; and after the industrial computer downloads a plurality of curves at one time, the industrial computer only needs to fast switch different transverse flower shape curves in an on-line way through the control card according to a production technology requirement so as to be suitable for the processing requirements of different transverse type tufted carpets. The invention solves the problems of the long cam replacing time, the easy cam abrasion and the great processing difficulty of the transverse jacquard of the traditional mechanical type cam, and technologists can directly design transverse flower shape laws so as to automatically generate transverse control information needed by the servo controller.

The invention provides a tufting printing exhibition blanket and a processing method thereof. The processing method comprises the steps of forming a tufting layer blanket surface coiled material by yarns or fibers on a base fabric through a needle row machine by means of down cutting and/or acupuncture; then plating latex on the back surface of the tufting layer blanket surface coiled material through shaving, thereby making the base fabric and the tufting form a firm integer member; then placing the tufting layer blanket surface coiled material and a specially produced thermoplastic elastic film layer on an embossing roller for combining, and afterwards heating for a certain time period. The tufting printing exhibition blanket prepared according to the invention has advantages of high smoothness of the blanket surface, same down height, high static resistance, high softness, high warmth retention performance, high flame retardance, high toughness, high anti-tearing performance and high breakdown performance. Through testing, compared with the prior art, the tufting printing exhibition blanket provided by the invention is advantageous in that the flame retardance can reach grade A. Furthermore, the tufting layer blanket surface coiled material and the thermoplastic elastic film layer are placed on the embossing roller and are combined at a temperature of 138 DEG C by means of viscosity of the thermoplastic elastic film layer in a fused state, thereby improving the sound absorbing capability of the blanket.

Described is a naked-tufted seed mutant line of Gossypium hirsutum L., developed from lines initially produced by chemical mutagenesis, which significantly reduces the formation of linters on the surface of the cotton seed. In a preferred embodiment, the lines carrying the naked seed mutation have reduced seed coat neps, reduced short fiber content, improved yarn quality, increased seed oil content, and improved AFIS fiber maturity. The naked-tufted seed of the mutant line significantly reduces the time and energy required for ginning, oil extraction, and reduces the need to delint the cotton seed prior to planting. In a preferred embodiment, the mutant is incorporated into a well-adapted commercial cultivar of upland cotton.

Design and manufacture of tufted articles, carpet tile webs and carpet tiles, and installation of carpet tiles, having different color, pile height, pile texture or other characteristics that, together with similar other such tiles, may be installed to create borders, edges or other multiple-tile designs, usually without any of the tiles looking out of place or improperly oriented relative to nap or the direction the tile is “facing.”
