Abstract

The invention relates to a textile fabric having a woven fabric, which is made up in whole or in part of flat filament yarns, wherein warp threads and weft threads form the woven fabric and wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are each made of a polymer. The invention provides that the warp threads and the weft threads are spun dyed and are different colors, which produce a varying color of the woven fabric depending upon a viewing angle.

Claims (35)

1. Textile fabric having a woven fabric, comprising:

in whole or in part flat filament yarns, in which warp threads and weft threads form the woven fabric;

the warp threads and the weft threads are each made of a polymer, and

all of the warp threads are spun dyed a first color and all of the weft threads are spun dyed a second color that is different from the first color, whereby the woven threads of different colors produce a perceived color for the woven fabric that varies depending upon a viewing angle.

2. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are made of the same polymer.

3. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are each made of polyacrylonitrile.

4. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are designed as multifilaments.

5. Textile fabric according to claim 4 , wherein the multifilaments are formed respectively from approximately 150 to 250 individual filaments.

6. Textile fabric according to claim 4 , wherein a ratio of a warp density to a weft density is 1.5 to 2.5.

7. Textile fabric according to claim 4 , wherein a fineness of the warp threads and the weft threads is 50 to 2000 dtex.

8. Textile fabric according to claim 4 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads have a different fineness.

9. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein a fineness of the warp threads is at least 1.5 times that of the weft threads.

10. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein a thread count of the warp threads and/or weft threads is 10 to 50 threads per cm.

11. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are interlaced by a twill weave construction.

12. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads are made of a staple fiber yarn and the weft threads of a flat filament yarn.

13. Textile fabric according to claim 12 , wherein the warp threads are made of polyacrylonitrile.

14. Textile fabric according to claim 12 , wherein the weft threads are made of a polyester.

15. Textile fabric according to claim 12 , wherein the warp threads and the weft threads are made of polyacrylonitrile.

16. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein the warp threads are made of a flat filament yarn and the weft threads of a staple fiber yarn.

17. Textile fabric according to claim 1 , wherein an underfabric is provided to which the woven fabric is connected.

18. Textile fabric according to claim 17 , wherein the woven fabric is connected to the underfabric via a rubber layer.

19. A textile fabric according to claim 1 for retractable and extendable lengths of material which have a perceptible color that varies depending upon a viewing angle, the textile fabric being configured as one of soft tops of convertible cars or awnings.

20. A device comprising:

at least one drive; and

at least one textile fabric designed according to claim 1 ,

wherein the at least one textile fabric is movable by operation of the drive.

21. Textile fabric according to claim 5 , wherein the multifilaments are formed respectively from 180 to 220 individual filaments.

22. Textile fabric according to claim 7 , wherein the fineness of the warp threads and the weft threads is 300 to 800 dtex.

23. A woven textile fabric, comprising:

flat filament yarns that are made of a polymer and that are arranged as warp threads and weft threads that are woven together; and

the warp threads are spun dyed one color consisting of a first color and the weft threads are spun dyed another color consisting of a second color different from the first color so that, when woven together, a perceived color of the woven flat filament yarns varies depending upon a viewing angle of the woven flat filament yarns.

24. A method of forming the textile fabric according to claim 1 , the method comprising:

spin dying the warp threads the first color and the weft threads the second color different from the first color; and

weaving together the spun dyed warp threads of the first color and the weft threads of the second color different from the first color to form the woven fabric,

whereby the perceived color of the woven fabric varies depending upon a viewing angle of the woven fabric.
