Claims17
A fabric for providing varying energy properties along its length, comprising:
- a woven pattern having a plurality of fibers;
- at least one of the plurality of fibers having a fiber length, a fiber diameter and an energy property, said energy property of the one of the plurality of fibers being graded along the length of the one of the plurality of fibers itself;
- and
- wherein said graded energy property comprises a thermal property of the fiber, said thermal property graded along the length of the fiber itself.
1 more element
A fabric comprising:
- a plurality of fibers joined together to form a span of fabric;
- at least one of the plurality of fibers having a fiber length, a fiber diameter and an energy property, a change in said energy property being graded along the length of the fiber itself;
- and
- wherein said change in said energy property comprises a graduation of said energy property occurring in the at least one of the plurality of fibers over the length of the at least one of the plurality of fibers between portions of said span of fabric.
