Abstract
A low friction fabric constructed of a first layer of woven polyester fibers with an upper and lower woven surface attached to and adjacent a second layer of the same weave of polyester fibers, the second layer having an upper and lower surface. Each of the woven layers comprising a straight yarn in the warp of the weave pattern with the weaves of the layers being oriented at a 90 degree angle to one another.
Claims14
A low friction fabric comprising a first layer of woven material with an upper and lower woven surface attached comprising at least two different types of yarn to a second layer of woven material of the same weave, said second layer having an upper and lower woven surface comprising at least two different types of yarn, said fabric layers being in contact with said lower surface of said first layer having a weave of a first orientation contacting the entire said upper surface of said second layer, said second layer having a weave with a second orientation orthogonal to the orientation of the weave of said first layer to reduce the coefficient of friction between the layers.
A low friction fabric using two different types of yarn to achieve a smooth side and a rough side comprising a first layer of woven polyester fibers with an upper and lower woven surface attached to and adjacent a second layer of the same weave of woven polyester fibers said second layer having an upper and lower surface, each of said woven layers comprising a weave with a straight yarn in the warp of the weave pattern and a low twist yarn in the weft of the weave pattern, said lower surface of said first layer being in contact with the said upper surface of said second layer with the weft yarn of said layers oriented at a 90 degree angle to one another.
A low friction fabric comprising a first layer of woven polyester fibers having an over four under one weave with an upper and lower surface, each of said layers comprising a straight yarn in the warp of the weave pattern and a low twist yarn in the weft of the weave pattern, said lower surface of said first layer being in contact with said upper surface of said second layer with the weft yarn of said layers being oriented at a 90 degree angle to each another.
A low friction fabric comprising a first layer of woven material with an upper and lower woven surface attached to a second layer of woven material of the same weave, said second layer having an upper and lower woven surface, said fabric layers being in contact with said lower surface of said first layer having a weave of a first orientation contacting the entire said upper surface of said second layer, said second layer having a weave with a second orientation orthogonal to the weave of said first layer to reduce the coefficient of friction between the layers, said fabric is constructed as a shoe insert.
