## Abstract

A patterned fabric with an image pattern includes: a fabric sheet having opposite first and second surfaces and a plurality of pores extending through the first and second surfaces, each of the pores being defined by a pore-defining wall; and a plastic film bonded to the first surface of the fabric sheet and having opposite first and second faces and an image pattern formed on the first face. The plastic film is perforated to form a plurality of through-holes extending through the first and second faces. Each of the through-holes is defined by a hole-defining wall. The hole-defining wall of each of the through-holes extends into a respective one of the pores and wraps around and is bonded to at least a portion of the pore-defining wall of the respective one of the pores.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A patterned fabric with an image pattern, comprising:
a fabric sheet having opposite first and second surfaces and a plurality of pores extending through said first and second surfaces, each of said pores being defined by a pore-defining wall; and
a plastic film bonded to said first surface of said fabric sheet and having opposite first and second faces and an image pattern formed on said first face, said plastic film being perforated to form a plurality of through-holes extending through said first and second faces, each of said through-holes being defined by a hole-defining wall;
wherein said hole-defining wall of each of said through-holes extends into a respective one of said pores and wraps around and is bonded to at least a portion of said pore-defining wall of the respective one of said pores.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The patterned fabric of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of said image pattern extends into adjacent ones of said pores.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The patterned fabric of claim 1, wherein said fabric sheet is in the form of a woven fabric or a non-woven fabric.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The patterned fabric of claim 1, wherein said image pattern is made from an ink material printed on said plastic film.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The patterned fabric of claim 1, wherein said plastic film is made from a thermoplastic material selected from the group consisting of polyolefins, polyesters and thermoplastic elastomers.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The patterned fabric of claim 1, wherein said hole-defining wall of each of said through-holes further extends through the respective one of said pores, and further wraps around and is bonded to a portion of said second surface of said fabric sheet, at least a portion of said image pattern extending through adjacent ones of said pores and being disposed on said portion of said second surface of said fabric sheet.
