Definitions
- the invention relates to down-like insulating clusters and a method for manufacturing the same.
- Donovan which discloses a superior synthetic down and has particular reference to light-weight thermal insulation systems which can be achieved by the use of fine fibers in low density assemblies and describes a range of fiber mixtures, that, when used to fabricate an insulating batt, provides advantageous, down-like qualities such as a high warmth-to- weight ratio, a soft hand, and good compression recovery.
- This material approaches, and in some cases might even exceed the thermal insulating properties of natural down. From a mechanical standpoint, however extremely fine fibers suffer from deficiencies of rigidity and strength that make them difficult to produce, manipulate and use. Recovery properties of such a synthetic insulator material are enhanced by larger fiber diameters, but an increase in the large fiber component will seriously reduce the thermal insulating properties overall.
- the invention disclosed therein relates to synthetic fiber thermal insulator material in the form of a cohesive fiber structure, which structure comprises an assemblage of: (a) from 70 to 95 weight percent of synthetic polymeric microfibers having a diameter of from 3 to 12 microns; and (b) from 5 to 30 weight percent of synthetic polymeric macrofibers having a diameter of 12 to 50 microns, characterized in that at least some of the fibers are bonded at their contact points, the bonding being such that the density of the resultant structure is within the range 3 to 16 kg/m 3 , the thermal insulating properties of the bonded assemblage being equal to or not substantially less than the thermal insulating properties of a comparable unbonded assemblage.
- the reference also describes a down-like cluster form of the preferred fiber blends. The distinct performance advantages of the cluster form over the batt form are also disclosed in the patent.
- blowable insulation clusters as described in U.S. Patent No. 6,329,051.
- the '651 patent described blowable clusters made from shredded bonded batt or bonded web.
- the web or batt was described as the same fiber blend described in the '327 patent to Donovan.
- shredding the batt or web formed of the materials described in the '327 patent the clusters were found to achieve down-like qualities including loft and insulating properties.
- Such clusters, in an admixture with natural material is described in U.S. Patent No. 6,329,052. Note, the disclosure of the aforementioned patents are incorporated fully herein by reference.
- blowable insulation clusters of the '051 and '052 patents incorporate only synthetic fibers.
- the present invention is directed to provide blowable insulation clusters being made of natural man-made materials or natural in combination with man-made materials.
- One embodiment of the present invention is a blowable insulation material including one or more of the materials such as batt, web, bonded batt, bonded web, a portion of bonded batt, and a portion of bonded web shredded one or more times into random shaped blowable clusters which are formed from a mixture of natural fibers or material or in combination with man-made fibers or materials.
- the clusters comprise water repellant or lubricant finished fiber and/or dry fiber and/or binder fiber mixed therewith.
- a process to produce the blowable clusters is also disclosed.
- the invention comprises clusters made from natural fibers or materials alone or in combination with man-made fibers or material.
- the starting material may be such a material in the form of a batt or web etc. as aforesaid, or other form suitable for the purposes and may or may not be a heatset.
- the batt or web may contain water repellant finished or lubricant finished fiber and/or dry fiber and/or binder fiber.
- the batt or web is then mechanically shredded one or more times into small clusters which are blowable and have desired down- like qualities. It is generally contemplated that a web (generally a single layer material) and batt (generally a multi-layer material), or portions thereof may be used to make the inventive clusters.
- Natural fibers or material considered to be within the scope of the present invention include but are not limited to wool, cotton, flax, animal hair, silk, down as well as other natural fibers or materials.
- the fiber clusters may be made with a light-weight card sliver made with a suitable fiber material or blend.
- the fiber-blend of the man-made fibers is preferably the fiber-blend disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,992,327 to Donovan et al.
- this patent discloses an insulation material where macrofibers may be bonded together to form a support structure for microfibers. Bonding may also be between both macrofibers and some of the microfibers at their various contact points. Preferably however, when utilized, bonding is between macrofibers of the man-made fibers at their contact points.
- the fiber structure of the man-made component of the batt generally comprises from 70 to 95 weight percent of synthetic polymeric microfibers having a diameter of from 3 to 12 microns and from 5 to 30 weight percent of synthetic polymeric macrofibers having a diameter of 12 to 50 microns.
- Other preferred embodiments utilize fiber-blends comprising water repellant finished or lubricant finished fiber and/or dry fiber and/or binder fiber.
- a sliver is first collected at the output side of a card and passes, when necessary or desired, directly through heated tubes that would thermally bond a binder fiber mixture if one were used. It is important that any bonding step employed is completed without shrinking and densifying the lofty card sliver.
- Each sliver-end falls through a vertical tube, while centered by guide rings, as heated air blows upward through the tube, bonding the lofty, linear, fiber assembly.
- the sliver Upon exit from the heated tube, the sliver is drawn to the entry side of a guillotine-type staple fiber cutter. A clean cut, without the densifying effects of fiber fusion at the cut, is achieved. This method results in a collection of very lofty fiber clusters.
- a preferred method uses batt consisting of plied card-laps, although other fibrous forms may be equally suitable. Note, however, that care should be taken if conventional carding is used in situations where both natural and man-made material is involved, that such carding does not separate out, for example, the natural material e.g. down feathers from the web. Also, the card- laps or webs, are preferably formed into batt with densities comparable to the densities characteristic of down.
- the card-laps or webs may also be prepared from binder fiber and/or dry fiber (i.e. no lubricant/antistatic) and/or water repellant fibers of 0.5-6.0 denier.
- the card-laps or webs comprise binder fiber, dry fiber, and water repellant fiber. These fibers may be a combination of natural and man-made fibers and materials as described above. These selected fibers may be preferably carded as long as undesired separation does not occur. Assembly by means of a single cylinder metallic card with stationary flats is possible.
- the output of the card may be sent through electric and/or gas fired sources of heat to heatset the binder fiber, when preparing a batt of natural and man-made fibers, for example.
- the batt is heated for a time and temperature sufficient to cause the fiber to bond, for example, between 300-400 0 F. After heat setting, or if a non-heat set batt or web is used, after formation the batt is then shredded, preferably two times in a blender to form the blowable clusters.
- blowable clusters A variety of other variable factors may be modified to obtain desired effects on the blowable clusters, these include:
- the twice shredded clusters are typically smoother and more easily blendable than clusters which are shredded only once. Further it is possible to take strips or sliver of heatset batt which may have been slitted, and then take these portions through a standard shredding process to form clusters.
- the invention further contemplates utilizing man-made fiber blends or a mixture of natural and man-made fiber blends that are not discussed above. These blend ranges limit average fiber diameter to ensure a high level of insulating performance. In some instances, an average fiber diameter greater than that defined by the cited patents may be desirable. For example, relatively large diameter fibers may be utilized if the end product is a pillow or upholstery and compressional stiffness is an important requirement.
- so formed clusters in an admixture with other clusters made of different natural and/or man-made materials or with natural and/or man-made fibers or material depending upon the desired result being sought.
