VERBESSERTES SYSTEM ZUR HERSTELLUNG VON ABSORBIERENDEM PAPIER

摘要

A papermaking fabric, particularly useful as a throughdrying fabric, which has shute and warp threads woven together to define a top surface plane on the sheet side containing only a number of relatively long warp knuckles at locations where one of the warp threads crosses over at least four of the shute threads. The long warp knuckles are positioned in a shed pattern to form (a) a first axis of bulky ridges that are defined by long warp knuckles positioned next to each other on adjacent warp threads, the first axis being disposed at a first angle with respect to the cross-direction of the drying fabric that is substantially between 68 and 90 degrees; and (b) a second axis formed by each of the long warp knuckles with other, overlapping long warp knuckles on nearby, but not immediately adjacent, warp threads, the second axis forming a second angle with respect to the cross-direction of the drying fabric of less than about 28 degrees.
