Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a textile product having an action of regulating the autonomic nervous system of a user and activating metabolism in a cell membrane by generating a considerable amount of negative ions by friction during use. Related to manufacturing method.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In the atmosphere, there are positive and negative ions distributed with an infinite extent, and the ion state usually maintains a balance (neutral) between positive and negative. Is necessary for conducting healthy life activities. At present, the atmosphere is gradually polluted by the surge of industrial waste, the increase in the number of vehicles due to the development of road traffic networks, and the widespread use of various types of electrical equipment.
The problem is that the high electric field area floods the living environment and the air becomes positive, and it is positively ionized everywhere regardless of work or home.

When the atmosphere becomes positively ionized, for example,
The autonomic nervous system becomes ataxic, and the metabolism in the cell membrane decreases. This results in sensory disturbances such as stiff shoulders, dizziness, and tinnitus, headaches, lack of concentration, psychosomatic disorders such as malaise, and in severe cases, direct and indirect causes such as neuralgia, neurosis, and organ failure. Has a considerable negative impact on

In the atmosphere of such rich positive ions,
It has been shown that the generation of negative ion air gradually alleviates the unpleasant symptoms. For this reason, it is now necessary to check all aspects of life so that the balance between positive and negative ions approaches their original state.
Written by Akiko Sugawara, published by PHP Research Institute].

For example, in order to obtain a living environment rich in negative ions, even if a wooden house with good air permeability is ideal without using plastic or paint, living in a wooden house is economical at present. Is often difficult. For this reason, use dehumidifiers and air purifiers that reduce indoor humidity and increase negative ions, install electromagnetic wave shielding goods such as filters that prevent ultraviolet and electromagnetic waves that generate positive ions, and use negative ion generators. Will be installed.

[0006]

In a general living environment, it is relatively easy to increase the number of negative ions using various devices, but the arrangement of these devices not only reduces the living space but also reduces the living space. Power consumption is also a secondary factor in the generation of positive ions, resulting in conflicting benefits. In addition, if these devices are purchased, it is not surprising that some extra expenses are involved, but in reality, there is no room to allow expenses that are not directly related to livelihood.

On the other hand, if textiles and foods always worn by humans have an action to increase negative ions, there is a problem that a living space is narrowed or power is consumed in order to obtain a living environment rich in negative ions. Does not happen. further,
If daily necessities themselves have the effect of increasing negative ions, even if the product is somewhat expensive, there is no need to purchase special equipment, so there is little expense involved, and there may be room to recognize the expense .

The present invention has been proposed in order to improve the above-mentioned problems relating to the improvement of the living environment, and is a daily necessity textile product which generates considerable negative ions due to friction during use, and a method for producing the same.

In the production method of the present invention, a liquid mineral component is extracted from a fossil coral or the like, and a sugar extracted from a sugarcane leaf is added as required. Although more than 10 times the amount of water is added to the liquid mineral components and carbohydrates,
The pH of this water is adjusted in advance from neutral to slightly alkaline. In addition, at the time of adjusting the pH of raw water and adding water, it is preferable to put far-infrared ceramics into a water tank and contact it with water in order to suppress the generation of positive ions and remove impurities. As the ceramic, for example, a material obtained by finely pulverizing aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, or the like on clay and then solidifying it in a ball shape is used. Specifically, alumina, mullite, magnesia,

The resin binder may be any known resin for fiber processing, for example, a water-soluble acrylic resin. The fiber processing resin may be added in an amount of about 1% by weight in a mineral aqueous solution, and is added and stirred one day before use. It is preferable to impregnate the fibers of the fiber product with the obtained mineral aqueous solution by impregnating, applying and / or spraying, and for blanket materials, it is preferable to soften the fiber by immersing it in a softening tank containing the mineral aqueous solution, and finally dry it by drying. The mineral component of the infrared radiation is fixed to the fibers.

FIG. 3 is a graph showing an example of measurement of generated negative ions in the blanket product of the present invention. In this experiment, an acrylic blanket manufactured and processed in the same manner as in Example 1 is used, and an untreated acrylic blanket is displayed as a control for comparison. In the negative ion measurement, the maximum value of the number of negative ions generated per cc by weak friction of the sample is measured by an ion number measuring device (trade name: Ion Tester KST-900, manufactured by Kobe Electric Wave).

As is clear from FIG. 3, the acrylic blanket similar to that of Example 1 has a maximum negative ion value of 896 / cc due to low friction, which is lower than the maximum value of 280 / cc in the control with low friction. Much more. In general,
During sleep, humans often move during deep sleep, which causes the human body to come into contact with the blanket and generate low friction, and this acrylic blanket is expected to produce negative ions at a value close to the maximum value described above. it can. In the case of ordinary fibers, the maximum value of the negative ion is approximately 300 to 400 pieces / cc. Therefore, the acrylic blanket similar to that in Example 1 sufficiently exhibits the function of generating negative ions.

In order to measure the washing resistance of the textile product of the present invention, an ion counter (trade name: Ion Tester K)
Using ST-900), the number of negative ions generated per cc by weak or strong friction of the sample is measured. This sample was an acrylic bore sheet manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1. For comparison, the same bore sheet was washed five times and an untreated bore sheet was also measured. The measurement results are shown in Table 1 below, and it is clear that even after the boa sheets after washing five times, a large amount of negative ions are generated as compared with the untreated boa sheets, and the negative ion generating action can be maintained even after the laundering.

In contact tank 2, 500 kg of far-infrared ceramics are arranged. This far-infrared ceramic is obtained by finely pulverizing aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, or the like into clay and then solidifying it in a ball shape. The far-infrared ceramics converts the water coming out of the contact tank 2 into slightly alkaline and removes impurities. When the water in the tank becomes neutral to weakly acidic, 500 kg of far infrared ceramics in the tank are replaced.

After that, the water in the contact tank 2 is sent to the reaction tanks 3 and 3 by a pump, and a 10-fold amount is supplied to the liquid mineral component added here. 200 kg of far-infrared ceramics are placed in the reaction tanks 3 and 3 as described above, and brought into contact with water. The obtained mineral water is supplied to the dyeing tank,

After knitting, the knitted double knitted fabric is subjected to center cutting after dip dyeing or before printing to form two blanket materials 5. With respect to the blanket material 5, the pile yarns are split and sufficiently defibrated, and after only one side is piled, two sheets are laminated to obtain a laminated blanket.

In order to pile both sides, the back surface may be raised by a raising machine such as a needle cloth roll. Due to this raising, 35 to 50% of the surface pile fibers are bypassed to the back surface, so that the weight of the pile yarn is set to a full gauge. Although not shown, the base fabric in the blanket material 5 is formed of a vertical knitted fabric having a complicated stitch structure, and a horizontal knitted fabric having a predetermined width is formed by laying a horizontal insertion yarn in a stitch of each vertical knitting yarn. .

In order to continuously dye the blanket material 5, the blanket material 5 is temporarily held in a scrap 15 in FIG. 5 and then continuously drawn out. For example, the blanket material 5 is passed through a dipping tank 16 containing the following dyeing solution, and then is rolled with a roll padder 17. squeeze. In the bat dyeing apparatus 60, the blanket material 5 is fed at a speed of 20 m / min.

In the splat jet 61, the blanket material 5 repeatedly enters and leaves the flexible tank 46 by a plurality of mangles 47. The blanket material 5 that has exited the flexible tank 46 is sent out while being squeezed by the upper rubber roller 48 and the other metal roller 45, and further squeezed by the one metal roller 44. Compressed air is injected into a space formed by the rubber rollers 43 and 48 and the metal rollers 44 and 45 by a compressor (not shown).
It is preferable that the throttle effect be enhanced by continuous blowing of the air, and the pickup rate is 45%.

The blanket material 5 that has been subjected to the softening treatment corrects the skew of the texture and the curvature of the texture by using a pair 62 of oblique rollers and curved rollers (FIGS. 5 and 6). Thereafter, in the pin tenter dryer 21 (FIG. 7), the hot air chamber 22 is circulated and dried to stabilize the dimensions while holding the both sides of the blanket material 5 with the tenter clips 63 and widening them. In the pin tenter dryer 21, 600 kg of the far-infrared ceramic is divided and installed at four locations, and the blanket material 5 is treated in an environment of negative ions rich in the drying step.

In the pin tenter dryer 21, the inside temperature of the eight-stage two-chamber is set at a cloth speed of 18 m / min and hot air temperatures of 115 to 12
The temperature is 0 ° C., the steam heater is used as a heat source, and a large number of outlets are arranged in a multi-stage manner. By blowing the hot air from both the upper and lower surfaces of the blanket material 5, the pile yarns of the blanket material 5 are hardly affected by temperature, wind speed, and the like.

The blanket material 5 after continuous soaking is subjected to separation and finishing such as shearing and polisher as required. Finally, the blanket material 5 is cut into a predetermined size for each sheet, and the periphery is sewn with a sewn cloth using a sewing machine, thereby completing a single blank beige acrylic blanket.

Obtain one single-sided pile material.

In the scouring / bleaching process, the single-sided pile material is fed to a vat bleaching device (not shown). The reaction is promoted by saturated steam in the steamer. Thereafter, the single-sided pile material is washed with water by sequentially passing through a plurality of washing machines set at a gradually lower water temperature. In this washer, for example, six tanks are arranged in series, and it is preferable that the temperature of the hot water of each washer is gradually lowered from about 80 ° C. to 40 ° C. The water-washed single-sided pile material is dried by circulating through a hot air chamber after dehydration treatment,
Generally, the dimensions are stabilized using a pin tenter dryer. The above-described mineral water is used in all vat bleaching apparatuses and washing machines.

After the single-sided pile material is scoured and bleached, the pile yarn is split and sufficiently defibrated to form a pile. Then, using a needle cloth roll, the back surface of the single-sided pile material is raised to form a pile, and 35 to 50% of the surface pile fibers are diverted to the back surface by the raising. Due to the detour of the fibers, the pile density on the surface is considerably reduced, so that the basis weight of the pile yarn is set to the full gauge.

The blanket material 7 of the double-sided knitted knitted fabric is shown in FIG.

Each screen form 8 repeatedly moves up and down at a constant rhythm, and when descending, carries the color paste placed on the end of the screen gauze to the other end with a roller (not shown) while pressing the color paste. The glue is extruded below the screen gauze and adheres to the blanket material 7. The pressure applied by the roller is adjusted according to the degree of pile penetration in each color paste, and is set to a pressure such that the color paste does not pass to the back surface of the blanket material 7.

The blanket material 7 having the surface pile printed thereon is fed into a steamer 9 (FIG. 9), and is immediately steamed with saturated steam for a predetermined time in the steamer to accelerate the dyeing reaction and fix the dye. The blanket material 7 that has been steam-heated is discharged from the steamer 9 and is generally shaken off by a predetermined length and placed on the pallet 39 by a device. Although not shown, the blanket material 7 on the pallet 39 is placed on the pallet again by inverting the front end portion of the predetermined length in the reversing device with the rear end portion, and performing printing on the pallet again for the predetermined length. It is preferable to equalize the elapsed time until washing.

The blanket material 7 that has been subjected to the steam heat treatment is soaped in the same manner as described above by first passing a 500 liter washing tank in which a detergent is added to hot water at 60 to 70 ° C. in a vibro washing machine. As a result, the excess dye, glue material, auxiliary agent and the like used in the printing process are removed from the blanket material 7, and the blanket material 7 is sufficiently washed with water through the remaining 3 to 4 hot water washing tanks in the vibro washing machine. 20 kg of the far-infrared ceramic is placed in each tank, and the above mineral water is used for washing and soaping.

The blanket material 7 having been washed with water is sent to the splat jet continuously again through the washing tank, and sent to the flexible tank while being squeezed by a metal roller or the like, in substantially the same manner as described above. In this flexible tank, a softener is added to hot water of 60 ° C. obtained from the mineral water, and about 1% by weight of an acrylic resin as a resin binder is added.

As described above, the blanket material 7 subjected to the softening treatment corrects the skew of the texture and the curvature of the texture by using a combination of an oblique roller and a curved roller. Thereafter, both end sides are gripped by a tenter clip in a pin tenter dryer, and are introduced into the hot air chamber while being widened. In this pin tenter dryer, 600 kg of the above-mentioned far-infrared ceramics is installed in four parts.

As a result, the blanket material 7 is circulated in the hot air chamber while being widened by the pin tenter dryer and dried. The dried blanket material 7 is turned by a 45 ° oblique roller (not shown) and exits the pin tenter dryer in a vertical direction. The blanket material 7 that has come out of the hot air chamber is stacked by a swing-down device (not shown) while being turned over on a pallet on which a cart is set.
