Fabric Contour Formation Using Deviating Warp Threads

The patent applies preliminary action by incorporating additional warp threads during the weaving process that pre-form the desired fabric contour. These extra warp threads are integrated into the fabric structure before cutting, allowing the fabric to be woven to its final shape without requiring subsequent cutting operations that would generate waste. The additional warp threads are positioned to create the exact contour needed, eliminating the need for post-weaving cutting and thus preventing material waste.

The patent applies segmentation by dividing the warp threads into two categories: standard warp threads that form the main fabric body and additional warp threads that form the contour. This segmentation allows the contour-forming threads to be independently controlled and positioned, enabling precise contour formation while maintaining the integrity of the main fabric structure. The additional warp threads can be selectively removed or retained based on the desired final shape.

The patent applies self-service by designing the weaving process to automatically form the desired contour through the integration of additional warp threads. The weaving machine itself performs the contour-forming function that would otherwise require separate cutting operations. The additional warp threads self-organize to create the final fabric shape, eliminating the need for external cutting equipment and reducing production complexity.

The patent applies dynamics by making the fabric width variable through the use of additional warp threads that can be selectively activated or deactivated at different positions along the fabric length. This allows the fabric contour to dynamically change width according to the desired shape, while the weaving process continues without interruption. The additional warp threads can be introduced and removed at specific points, creating a dynamic contour that adapts to the final product requirements.

The patent applies universality by designing the additional warp threads to serve multiple functions: they form the fabric contour, provide structural support during weaving, and can be selectively retained or removed based on the desired final shape. The same weaving mechanism that produces the main fabric body also simultaneously creates the contour, making the weaving process multi-functional and eliminating the need for separate contour-forming operations.

The patent applies local quality by allowing different warp threads to have different functions at different locations along the fabric. Standard warp threads maintain uniform density in the main fabric body, while additional warp threads are selectively positioned to create local contour variations. This local differentiation enables precise contour control without compromising the homogeneity of the main fabric structure, and allows flexible adaptation to various product requirements.
