Abstract

The invention relates to a textile protection element ( 30 ) for a plastic support ( 33 ) of knitted embodiment, comprising at least one section ( 31, 32 ) with a thermosealing textile thread ( 2 ). The above is particularly of use for protection of a plastic hose.

Claims (21)

1. A tubular textile sheath configured to protect a plastic tube, comprising:

a textile structure that is a knit, said textile structure including at least one of polyester or polyamide heat-shrinkable monofilaments, at least one portion of the tubular textile sheath comprising a heat-bonding textile yarn interlaced in said textile structure, said at least one portion of the tubular textile sheath being bonded by said heat-bonding textile yarn onto said plastic tube, and an inside diameter of said tubular textile sheath being slightly greater than an outside diameter of said plastic tube, before bonding said tubular textile sheath onto said plastic tube.

2. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-bonding textile yarn melts at a temperature between 60° C. and 140° C.

3. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-bonding textile yarn is made of a thermosetting material.

4. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-bonding textile yarn is a polyester and/or a polyamide.

5. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tubular textile sheath further includes multifilaments.

6. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said portion comprising the heat-bonding textile yarn constitutes one end of the tubular sheath.

7. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two end portions of the tubular textile sheath comprise the heat-bonding textile yarn.

8. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the tubular textile sheath further comprises the heat-bonding textile yarn over an entire length of the tubular textile sheath.

9. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile is a jersey knit.

10. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the textile is a rib knit.

11. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-bonding yarn is a molleton yarn in the knitted textile.

12. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the heat-bonding yarn is knitted with the textile over at least one portion of the tubular textile sheath.

13. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the heat-bonding yarn is made of a thermosetting material.

14. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the heat-bonding yarn is formed from polyester and/or polyamide.

15. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the tubular textile sheath further includes multifilaments.

16. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein most of the heat-bonding textile yarn is positioned on an inside of the tubular textile sheath.

17. The tubular textile sheath as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said heat-bonding textile yarn is interlaced with said monofilaments.

18. An assembly, comprising:

a plastic tube; and

a tubular textile sheath protecting the plastic tube, the tubular textile sheath comprising a textile structure that is a knit, said textile structure including at least one of polyester or polyamide heat-shrinkable monofilaments, at least one portion of the tubular textile sheath comprising a heat-bonding textile yarn interlaced in said textile structure, said at least one portion of the tubular textile sheath being bonded by said heat-bonding textile yarn onto said plastic support tube, and an inside diameter of said tubular textile sheath being slightly greater than an outside diameter of said plastic tube, before bonding said tubular textile sheath onto said plastic tube.
