Textile surface structure comprising an arrangement of a plurality of conductive threads or threads exhibiting conductive properties and method for the production thereof

1. Method for the production of a textile surface structure from an arrangement of a plurality of conductive threads or threads exhibiting conductive properties, wherein insulating sections are arranged between the conductive threads or insulating threads are incorporated into the structure, with the structure comprising an inorganic electroluminescent material and electric connection elements, wherein said electroluminescent material is incorporated into the structure's intermediate areas or is embodied as coated threads arranged within the structure, with the structure being selectively provided with a coating of a fluorescent substance or optical brightening agents and wherein the overall arrangement comprises a transparent, elastic, covering protective layer, the method comprising:

producing a pre-structure exhibiting adjacent insulated conductive threads using textile techniques;

obtaining a double-comb structure alternately incorporating conductive and non-conductive weft threads, and inserting conductive warp threads for outer laminar contact and by alternating and excluding left and right side flotation of the conductive weft threads, forming a comb-like electrode structure to make contact with discrete electronic components;

applying electroluminescent paste to the pre-structure at least partly absorbed by the fabric and thereby fixed;

applying the fluorescent substance to the pre-treated structure; and

applying the covering layer thereafter.

2. Method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the pre-structure contains threads exhibiting an electroluminescent coating.

3. Method in accordance with claim 1 , wherein the conductive threads of the pre-structure are galvanically reinforced and pre-treated.

4. Method for the production of a textile surface structure from an arrangement of a plurality of conductive threads or threads exhibiting conductive properties, wherein insulating sections are arranged between the conductive threads or insulating threads are incorporated into the structure, with the structure comprising an inorganic electroluminescent material and electric connection elements, wherein said electroluminescent material is incorporated into the structure's intermediate areas or is embodied as coated threads arranged within the structure, with the structure being selectively provided with a coating of a fluorescent substance or optical brightening agents and wherein the overall arrangement comprises a transparent, elastic, covering protective layer, the method comprising:

producing a pre-structure exhibiting adjacent insulated conductive threads using textile techniques;

wherein a double-comb structure is obtained, wherein conductive and non-conductive weft threads are alternately incorporated, and conductive warp threads are furthermore inserted for outer laminar contact and by alternating and excluding left and right side flotation of the conductive weft threads, a comb-like electrode structure is formed to make contact with discrete electronic components;

applying electroluminescent paste to the pre-structure at least partly absorbed by the fabric and thereby fixed;

applying the fluorescent substance to the pre-treated structure;

wherein the fluorescent substance is incorporated into the pre-structure in the form of fluorescent threads or other coated threads; and

applying the protective covering layer thereafter.

5. Method in accordance with claim 1 , further comprising integrating an electronic device for the operation of the textile into the textile surface.

6. Method in accordance with claim 5 , wherein the electronic device comprises a voltage transformer including transducer inductances woven into the textile surface.
