Abstract
A woven sheet that is lightweight and breathable, while also being a durable, long-lasting type. The lightweight woven sheet comprises a dynamic grid construction that allows moisture vapor to escape while preserving durability of the sheet. The sheet includes a first section including a first type of weave having a first grid pattern and a second section including a second type of grid having a second grid pattern. The first weave is an open-weave, which makes the sheet breathable and lowers the overall weight of the sheet, while the second weave is a plain weave that provides durability to the overall sheet.
Claims21
A woven sheet comprising,
- a first section comprising a first weave having a first grid pattern;
- and
- a second section comprising a second weave having a second grid pattern, the second section is coupled to the first section;
- wherein an area of first section is greater than an area of the second section;
- wherein the first grid pattern is less dense than the second grid pattern;
- wherein the first weave contributes most to an air permeability characteristic of the woven sheet;
- and
- wherein the second weave contributes most to a durability characteristic of the woven sheet.
A woven sheet comprising:
- a first section having a 2-by-2 dobby weave;
- and
- a second section having a 1-by-1 plain weave, the first section contacting the second section,
- wherein an area of first section is greater than an area of the second section;
- and
- wherein the first section and the second section both comprise a lyocell fiber.
A method of making a woven sheet, the method comprising the steps of:
- weaving a first section using a first weave having a first grid pattern;
- and
- weaving a second section using a second weave having a second grid pattern, the second section coupled to the first section;
- wherein an area of first section is greater than an area of the second section;
- wherein the first grid pattern is less dense than the second grid pattern;
- wherein the first weave contributes most to an air permeability characteristic of the woven sheet;
- and
- wherein the second weave contributes most to a durability characteristic of the woven sheet.
