Industrial fabric

Abstract

An industrial fabric ( 3 ) includes a plurality of yarns ( 31, 32 ) extending in warp and weft directions and woven into a twill weave structure, which includes 200˜2000 monofilament fibers ( 311 ) per inch in either one of the warp and weft directions. A degree of fineness of each monofilament fiber ranges from 50 deniers to 500 deniers. The industrial fabric ( 3 ) not only has good strength but also provides excellent water permeability.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An industrial fabric comprising:
 a plurality of yarns extending in warp and weft directions and woven into a twill weave structure, which includes 200˜2000 monofilament fibers per inch measured in either one of the warp and weft directions, a degree of fineness of each of said monofilament fibers ranging from 50 deniers to 500 deniers.   
     
     
         2 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said twill weave structure includes 5˜60 monofilament yarns per inch measured in either one of the warp and weft directions, a degree of fineness of each of said monofilament yarns ranging from 501 deniers to 2000 deniers. 
     
     
         3 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said yarns includes a plurality of multifilament yarns and a plurality of monofilament yarns, each of said multifilament yarns having a plurality of said monofilament fibers, each of said monofilament yarns having a single monofilament. 
     
     
         4 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said multifilament yarns are arranged along the warp direction, and said monofilament yarns are arranged in one of, or both of the weft and warp directions. 
     
     
         5 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said multifilament yarns are arranged along the weft direction, and said monofilament yarns are arranged along one of, or both of the weft and warp directions. 
     
     
         6 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said monofilament yarns are arranged along the warp direction, and said multifilament yarns are arranged along both of the weft and warp directions. 
     
     
         7 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said monofilament yarns are arranged along the weft direction, and said multifilament yarns are arranged along both of the weft and warp directions. 
     
     
         8 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 3 , wherein said monofilament yarns are arranged along both of the weft and warp directions, and said multifilament yarns are arranged along both of the weft and warp directions. 
     
     
         9 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said yarns include a plurality of multifilament yarn, each of which includes a plurality of said monofilament fibers. 
     
     
         10 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said twill weave structure has a pattern of one of n/1 twill˜n/7 twill, where n ranges from 2 to 7. 
     
     
         11 . The industrial fabric as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein said yarns are made of polymers.
