<p>All-woven inflatable fabrics (10) which comprise areas (14) of two layers an d attachment points or "seams" (16) where single layers of fabric are formed. Such single fabric layers are constructed solely through the utilization of basket weave patterns. These specific single fabric layers provide a relatively effective manner of reducing air permeability within the entire fabric article by decreasing the possibility of yarn shifting upon inflation. Alternatively, the presence of at least a second single fabric layer area (22) adjacent to the first (16) and separated by a narrow double fabric layer (18) can further reduce the possibility of yarn shifting in the first single fabric layer. Such a fabric may be utilized in applications where fabric inflation is desired or necessary. In particular, the inventive fabric may be incorporated within an airbag cushio n.</p> |
