Textile material comprising conductive elements
View Patent ↗Textile material having conductive elements for an interior of a vehicle includes a flat textile substrate having a first surface and an opposite second surface. At least one conductor track formed of a conductive paint is printed onto the first surface. At least one sensitive element, which is electrically conductively connected to the conductor track on the first surface, is arranged on the second surface.
1. A textile material with conductive elements for a passenger compartment of a vehicle, comprising
a textile substrate formed in two dimensions with a first surface and with an opposing second surface;
at least one conductor track imprinted onto the first surface with at least one conductive paint; and
at least one sensitive element arranged on the second surface, wherein
the at least one sensitive element is connected in an electrically conducting manner to the conductor track on the first surface,
both the conductor track and the sensitive element are imprinted on the first surface with at least one conductive paint so as to be connected to one another in the electrically conducting manner,
the textile substrate is cut around a partial periphery of the sensitive element, and
a folding region resulting therefrom with the sensitive element is folded along a folding edge of the textile substrate such that the second surface of the folding region points toward the unfolded second surface, whereby the sensitive element has been arranged on the second surface.
2. The textile material according to claim 1 , wherein
the folding region is V-shaped.
3. The textile material according to claim 1 , wherein
a conductive thread on the second surface is sewn through the textile substrate and on a region of the conductor track on the first surface and thereby forms the sensitive element.
4. The textile material according to claim 1 , wherein
the sensitive element takes the form of a capacitive switch.
5. The textile material according to claim 1 , wherein
the sensitive element is formed in two dimensions.
6. A vehicle comprising a textile material according to claim 1 .
7. The vehicle according to claim 6 , wherein
the textile material is arranged in a passenger compartment such that the first surface is mounted on a component of the passenger compartment, and the second surface and the sensitive element face into the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
