[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a glove using a conductive yarn.

[Prior art]

 In recent years, textile products have been used in all fields. It is widely used for carpets, curtains, vehicle seats, etc., starting from the conventional clothing field. However, one of the drawbacks of textile products is frictional charging. As mentioned above, the textile products used in vehicle seats are no exception, and both natural and synthetic fibers have the drawback of being electrostatically charged. Especially in a low humidity environment such as in winter, friction between the clothes and the seat causes frictional electrification, which causes sparks due to discharge by touching metal parts such as doors when getting off the vehicle or shock due to discharge sparks. Receive discomfort. Therefore, there are cases where processing is performed to make vehicle interior textile products such as seats electrically conductive. They are a method of applying a conductive treatment agent to the surface of a textile product and an attempt to give conductivity by inserting a conductive yarn into the textile product.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, when the treatment agent is applied to the surface of the textile product, the conductivity itself is low, and if it is exposed to the high temperature condition in a vehicle in the hot sun, it may be left in a harsh environment for a long time or many times. Performance deteriorates. Similarly, even when conductive yarn is put into a textile product such as a sheet, the conductive performance is low, and it is difficult to smoothly discharge the static electricity transmitted to the conductive yarn to the outside, so a satisfactory product is obtained. Has not been done. As a result of diligent studies to overcome such problems, the inventors of the present invention have a high conductive performance, are not affected by the environment, and have a conductive property for a driver that can smoothly discharge static electricity to the outside. Providing gloves helped solve these problems.

[0004]

Means for Solving the Problems The present invention adopts the following means in order to solve the problems. That is, the present invention is a glove comprising a non-conductive yarn and a conductive yarn having an electric resistance value of 10 ⁹ Ω / cm or less, the conductive yarn being at least in the part forming a finger. It is a conductive glove characterized by being used one or more.

The present invention will be described in more detail below. First, the conductive yarn must have an electric resistance value of 10 ⁹ Ω / cm or less. This is because if the electric resistance value exceeds 10 ⁹ Ω / cm, electrostatic air cannot smoothly escape through the conductive yarn to the outside.

As the conductive yarn, any one may be used as long as it is generally used, for example, metal fibers, metal plated fibers, composite fibers having metal fibers as cores, conductive filaments such as carbon kneaded. Etc. Usually, those having a single yarn fineness of 1 to 50 denier and a total fineness of 10 to 100 denier are preferably used.

The conductive yarn may be used alone or may be coated with a non-conductive fiber and used, for example, in the form of covering, core yarn, or composite yarn. Next, the glove of the present invention must be made of conductive yarn and non-conductive yarn. A glove is required to have a fit that fits well in the hand, does not impede the free movement of the fingers, and is capable of retaining the feel of the fingers without getting stuffy. However, in general, conductive yarns have the ability to pass static electricity well, but they do not have the ability to satisfy the above-mentioned feeling of wearing. Therefore, in order to satisfy the above-mentioned lack of wear feeling, it is used in combination with natural fibers or synthetic fibers that are generally not conductive, which are used in general gloves. By doing so, both the feeling of wearing and the conductivity can be satisfied, and therefore the present invention is limited to gloves made of conductive yarns and non-conductive yarns.

However, in the present invention, at least one conductive thread must be contained in the part forming the finger. It is effective to let static electricity accumulated in the body escape to the outside smoothly at a low potential in order to prevent shock caused by discharge sparks, but for that purpose it is necessary to guide the conductive yarn to a place where static electricity can easily escape. There is. Therefore, by inserting the conductive thread into the part of the glove where the fingers are always in contact with other objects, the static electricity accumulated in the body can be smoothly released to the outside through the conductive thread. In addition, static electricity tends to accumulate at sharp points or at the tips of the tips, and from that sense, for example, the conductive threads are applied to the fingers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 of the glove 1 shown in FIG. It is effective to insert at least one 7 or more. However, the figure shows an example in which they are inserted one by one.

The mixing ratio of the conductive yarns to the fabric weight is preferably 0.01% or more and 5% or less, and the distance between the conductive yarns is preferably 5 cm or less. If the ratio of the conductive yarns to the fabric weight is less than 0.01% or the distance between the conductive yarns exceeds 5 cm, the antistatic property will be significantly reduced. In addition, even if mixed with more than 5% of conductive yarn, the antistatic performance cannot be dramatically improved, and not only does the wearing feeling adversely affect the design, but also the conductive yarn is generally expensive. It is economically wasteful to use a large amount of. The gloves of the present invention may be woven or knitted.

【Example】

Example 1 A conductive yarn having an electric resistance value of 2 × 10 ⁸ Ω / cm and a polyester spun blend (65/35) blended yarn 40'S / 1 as a non-conductive yarn are arranged as shown in Table 1. And then cut and sewn to form a glove, and the friction electrification voltage was measured at a temperature of 20 ° C. and a humidity of 40% RH using a nylon friction cloth at n = 5 in accordance with JIS L1094. The results are shown in Table 1. As is clear from Table 1, when the number of conductive yarns per finger is one or more, the friction electrification voltage is almost in equilibrium. In addition, the frictional electrification voltage at that time was at a practically good level at which no shock was generated due to the discharge spark.
