The present invention relates to a conductive yarn and an article having a wiring line that is formed of said conductive yarn.
Today, many ideas regarding wearable devices equipped with various electric devices on a garment are proposed. Electric devices having various functions such as a sensor for measuring a body temperature and/or a heart rate, an electrode used for a low frequency therapy by electrical stimulation or EMS (electrical Muscle Stimulation) and LED for decoration are applied on a garment. In addition, wiring lines for connecting with a power supply for driving the electric devices and for input/output signals are also applied on the garment at the same time.
Means for preparing a wiring line on a wearable device include a method of cutting a metal foil out in the wiring shape to stick on the device and a method of printing conductive paste on the device.
However, the wiring line prepared by these methods required to be protected by covering with a resin film or the like in order to prevent disconnection accompanying deformation of the garment. There is a significant problem in using the resin film, because the resin film might impair flexibility of clothing.
In order to avoid the problem, there has been proposed a method of forming a conductive wire by incorporating a metal wire and/or a conductive fiber into the fiber structure of a fabric as the base material of the garment at the time of weaving or knitting the fabric. However, this method has a problem that the degree of freedom in the wiring shape is low.
The Patent Document 1 discloses a sewing machine yarn wherein a conductive filament and a flame-retardant fiber having a limiting oxygen index LOI of 26 or more are twisted together. Using the flame-retardant fiber having a limiting oxygen index LOI of 26 or more enables to resist abrasion and wear of the sewing needle and to form conductive patterns freely on a fabric by a sewing machine sewing.

The Patent document 1 illustrates a sewing machine yarn obtained by twisting a conductive filament and a twistable flame-retardant fiber spinning yarn together, according to which thread breakage while sewing machine sewing can be prevented.
The flame-retardant fiber spinning yarn has high strength and has moderate extensibility against tension in a length direction. While it can exhibit an effect of relaxing the tension during sewing machine sewing, there is a risk of breaking since the conductive filament is weak against elongation.
The sewing machine yarn wherein two kinds of fibers having different physical properties such as a flame-retardant fiber spinning yarn and a conductive filament are twisted together is unbalanced in stress caused by twisting. For that reason, twisting and slacking of the sewing machine yarn on a stitch during sewing may easily occur. Twisting and slacking of the sewing machine yarn on a stitch may cause the decrease in conductivity. There also arises a problem that electrical short circuit between the wiring lines adjacent to each other may occur.
In order to solve the above problems, the present inventors studied the structure of a double covering yarn having a high-strength filament yarn as a core yarn and two conductive filament yarns as a sheath yarn. As a result, they have found that a conductive yarn comprising a non-twisted high-strength filament yarn covered by one conductive filament yarn with a Z-twist and the other conductive filament yarn with an S-twist can exhibit highly durable conductivity and excellent sewability.
The present invention provides a conductive yarn characterized by comprising a non-twisted high-strength filament yarn formed of a high-strength fiber having tensile strength of 10 cN/dtex or more, a first conductive filament yarn that covers the high-strength filament yarn with a Z-twist and a second conductive filament yarn that covers the high-strength filament yarn with an S-twist.
According to the above configuration, it is possible to obtain a wiring line without occurring twisting and slacking of the conductive yarn at the time of forming the wiring line by sewing. Since a high-strength filament yarn is used as a core yarn, disconnection of the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn consisting a sheath yarn can be suppressed.
Regarding the conductive filament yarns covering the above-mentioned high-strength filament yarn, the ratio of the twist number of Z-twists of the first conductive filament yarn (Tz) and the twist number of S-twists of the second conductive filament yarn (Ts) is preferably Tz:Ts=1:0.8-1.2. More preferably, Tz is equal to Ts. According to this configuration, occurrence of twisting and slacking of the conductive yarn at the time of forming the wiring line can be suppressed more effectively.
It is preferable that the high-strength fiber forming the high-strength filament yarn has tensile strength of 20 cN/dtex or more. It is preferable that the high-strength fiber is formed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber. According to this configuration, it is possible to prevent disconnection of the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn even when tension is applied to the wiring part at the time of wearing after sewing, and to keep high conductivity.
It is preferable that both the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn are a copper-coated polyester filament yarn or a silver-coated polyester filament yarn. According to this configuration, it is possible to form a low-resistance wiring line capable of imparting reduction of power consumption and improvement of accuracy in input/output signals.
The present invention also relates to an article which has a wiring line that is formed of the above-mentioned conductive yarn. According to the present invention, an article having a flexible wiring line that exhibits high durability in terms of tensile force can be produced by means of an easy method of sewing or the like.
The present invention is capable of providing a conductive yarn which has excellent sewability and conductivity that exhibits high durability in terms of tensile force in a length direction. Using the conductive yarn according to the present invention, a flexible wiring line having the high degree of freedom of shape can be formed by means of an easy method of sewing.
The conductive yarn of the present invention comprises a high-strength filament yarn formed of a high-strength fiber having tensile strength of 10 cN/dtex or more, which has a structure of a double covering yarn covered by a first conductive filament yarn and a second conductive filament yarn. The high-strength filament yarn is a non-twisted yarn constituting a core yarn in the conductive yarn of the present invention having a structure of a double covering yarn consisting of a core yarn and a sheath yarn.
The high-strength filament yarn of the present invention formed by using a high-strength fiber having tensile strength of 10 cN/dtex or more. Tensile strength in the present invention is measured in the length direction of the filament according to JIS L 1013. The high-strength fiber forming the high-strength filament yarn of the present invention has tensile strength of 10 cN/dtex or more, preferably 20 cN/dtex or more, more preferably 20 cN/dtex to 50 cN/dtex, most preferably 30 cN/dtex to 40 cN/dtex.
The high-strength fiber having tensile strength of 10 cN/dtex or more enables to suppress reduction in conductivity during sewing and/or wearing. The single yarn fineness of the high-strength fiber is preferably 0.5 to 10 dtex.
Examples of the high-strength filament yarns formed of the high-strength fiber having tensile strength in the length direction of 10 cN/dtex or more include a para-aramid fiber filament yarn, an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene filament yarn, a liquid crystal polyester filament yarn and a polyarylate filament yarn. Among them, an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene filament yarn formed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber is preferable in terms of high abrasion resistance and being light-weight. The ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber is preferably made of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene having an average molecular weight of 1,000,000 to 7,000,000.
The high-strength filament fiber is preferably a multi-filament fiber, more preferably having a total fineness of 50 dtex to 2,000 dtex. Further preferably, it has a total fineness in the range of 200 dtex to 900 dtex. Tensile strength of the high-strength filament yarn is preferably 1,500 cN or more.
It is important that the above-mentioned high-strength filament yarn is a non-twisted yarn. Since the high-strength filament yarn is a non-twisted yarn, the conductive yarn of the present invention has an effect of being free from occurrence of twisting or slacking during forming the wiring line by sewing.
The number of filaments of the multi-filament yarn is preferably 10 to 1,000, more preferably 10 to 300, although not particularly limited.
The first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn are a sheath yarn in a double covering yarn structure of the conductive yarn of the present invention.
A covering yarn has a structure consisting of a core yarn and a sheath yarn wound around the core yarn. The double covering yarn has a double sheath-yarn layer structure consisting of a lower sheath yarn wound around the core yarn side (inside) and an upper sheath yarn wound around the outside of the lower sheath yarn. In the present invention, the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn can be used to form either a lower sheath yarn or an upper sheath yarn. They may be a lower sheath yarn or an upper sheath yarn alternately.
The first conductive filament yarn covers the high-strength filament yarn with a Z-twist. The second conductive filament yarn covers the high-strength filament yarn with an S-twist. Prior to covering the high-strength filament yarn, a primary twist can be applied to the first conductive filament yarn and/or the second conductive filament yarn each individually.
It is preferable that the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn are a metal coated filament yarn formed by coating a metal film on a synthetic fiber filament yarn.
Examples of the synthetic fiber filament yarns include a polyester filament yarn, a nylon filament yarn, an acryl filament yarn, a polyolefin filament yarn, a vinylidene chloride filament yarn, and an aramid filament yarn. Among them, a polyester filament yarn is preferable in terms of versatility, chemical resistance, and strength.
It is preferable that the synthetic fiber filament yarn is a multi-filament yarn. The synthetic fiber filament yarn has a total fineness of preferably 20 dtex to 120 dtex, more preferably 30 dtex to 80 dtex.
The number of filaments of the synthetic fiber filament yarn is preferably 10 or more, more preferably 10 to 50 from the viewpoint of bending durability. A single yarn fineness of the synthetic fiber filament yarn is preferably 0.5 dtex to 10 dtex.
The conductive filament yarn of the present invention can be obtained by coating a metal film on the synthetic fiber filament yarn. The synthetic fiber filament yarn maybe primarily twisted prior to forming the metal film thereon.
Examples of the metals constituting the metal film include silver, road, copper, nickel, tin, zinc, and palladium. Alloys containing these metals can also be included. Among them, silver and copper are preferable in terms of excellent conductivity, and silver is more desirable.
Examples of means for forming the metal film include a dry process such as vapor deposition and sputtering and a wet process. It is preferable to employ a wet plating process. Examples of the wet plating processes include an electroplating method and an electroless plating method. The wet platin, process enables to form a uniform metal film on each filament yarn even in the case of the synthetic fiber filament yarn.
The thickness of the metal film is preferably 0.075 μm to 0.50 μm, more preferably 0.1 μm to 0.3 μm. The thickness of the metal film within the range of 0.075 μm-0.50 μm allows to achieve both of excellent conductivity and flexibility.
The conductive filament yarn thus obtained has a total fineness of preferably 20 dtex to 200 dtex, more preferably 40 dtex to 150 dtex. It has a single yarn fineness of preferably 0.5 dtex to 20 dtex.
The conductive filament yarn thus obtained has a resistance value of preferably 10,000 Ω/m or less, more preferably 1,000 Ω/m or less. The resistance value in the present invention is measured according to JIS C 2525.
It is preferable that both the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn are a copper-coated polyester filament yarn or a silver-coated polyester filament yarn. More preferably, they are both a silver-coated polyester filament yarn.
It is preferable that a single yarn fineness, a total fineness, the number of filaments and the like are substantially the same for the first conductive filament yarn and the second conduct filament yarn. Since the properties of the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn constituting the sheath yarn of the conductive yarn are substantial the same, stress caused by twisting two sheath yarns can be cancelled each other. As a result, a conductive yarn excellent in sewability can be obtained.
The conductive yarn of the present invention employs the structure of a double covering yarn having a core yarn formed of the non-twisted high-strength filament yarn and a sheath yarn formed of the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn. The first conductive filament yarn covers the high-strength filament yarn with a Z-twist. The second conductive yarn covers the high-strength filament yarn with an S-twist.
The twist number of Z-twists of the first conductive filament yarn and the twist number of S-twists of the second conductive filament yarn are preferably each within the range of 100 T/m to 1,000 T/m. When the twist number is each within the range of 100 T/m to 1,000 T/m, a conductive yarn having excellent conductivity and high sewability can be obtained. The twist number of each conductive filament yarn is more preferably within the range of 100 T/m to 400 T/m.
It is preferable that the ratio of the twist number of Z-twists of the first conductive filament yarn (Tz) and the twist number of S-twists of the second conductive filament yarn (Ts) is preferably Tz:Ts=1:0.8-1.2, more preferably Tz:Ts=1: 0.9-1.1, further preferably Tz=Ts.
Accordingly, the conductive yarn can be improved in balance of stress caused by twisting and in suppression of twisting and slacking of the conductive yarn during sewing.
Regarding the means for double-covering the high-strength filament yarn with the first conductive filament yarn and the second conductive filament yarn, any methods using a known double-covering apparatus can be employed. Examples of the methods using a double-covering apparatus include a method wherein a core yarn formed of the non-twisted high-strength filament yarn is fed from a feed roller, then the first conductive filament yarn as a lower sheath yarn is fed from the first spindle to cover the high-strength filament yarn in Z-twisting, and then the second conductive filament yarn as an upper sheath yarn is fed from the second spindle to cover them in S-twisting. The double covering yarn thus obtained is wound up on a winder via a delivery roller.
Although, the above-mentioned example of the double covering method is carried out by firstly covering by the first conductive filament yarn and secondly covering by the second conductive filament yarn, this order may be reversed. For example, the double covering method can be carried out by firstly covering the second conductive filament yarn as a lower sheath yarn in S-twisting and secondly covering the first conductive filament yarn as an upper sheath yarn in Z-twisting.
The conductive yarn thus obtained has a total fineness of preferably 50 dtex to 2,500 dtex, more preferably 200 dtex to 1,500 dtex.
A resistance value of the conductive yarn thus obtained not particularly limited, but is preferably 1,000 Ω/m or less, more preferably 500 Ω/m or less.
The conductive yarn of the present invention thus obtained which has the structure of a double covering yarn enables to suppress twisting and slacking thereof during sewing by balancing stress in an S-twisting direction and that in a Z-twisting direction.
Since a non-twisted high-strength filament yarn is used as a core yarn, in addition, elongation in a length direction of the conductive yarn can be restricted to have an effect of reducing the risk of a change in a resistance value and disconnection.
The elongation rate in a length direction of the conductive yarn according to the present invention is preferably 5% or less. When the elongation rate in a length direction of the conductive yarn is 5% or less, it is possible to form a wiring line wherein deterioration of conductivity against tensile force in a length direction is suppressed. As a result, increase of a resistance value can be prevented even when a force in a length direction is applied at the time of using such as wearing. The elongation rate in the present invent ion is measured according to JIS L 1095 (Testing Methods for Spun Yarn; 9.5; a single yarn tensile strength and an elongation rate).
The conductive yarn of the present invention having highly durable conductivity can be used for a wiring line for various electric devices and the like. Since it also has excellent sewability, it is suitable to use for a wiring line provided especially on a fabric such as a garment.
Examples of the article having the wiring line of the present invention include an article having a wiring line formed as a stitch using the conductive yarn on a flexible base material such as a fabric. Since said wiring line is formed of the conductive yarn, it has high strength and low elongation in a length direction. Further, because of excellent flexibility of said wiring line using the above-mentioned conductive yarn, it does not inhibit flexibility that the base material inherently has.
Examples of means for forming a wiring line on the base material include sewing. Sewing may be hand sewing or sewing by using a sewing machine such as a home sewing machine or an industrial sewing machine. The conductive yarn of the present invention can be used for a sewing machine yarn. Since the conductive yarn of the present invention allows to equalize the twist stress, it exhibits excellent sewability during sewing using a sewing machine. Even in the case of forming a wiring line having a complex shape, occurrence of twisting and slacking of the conductive yarn can be suppressed. Suppression of occurrence of twisting and slacking of the conductive yarn enables preventing of causing a short circuit even between the two adjacent wirings, which allows to form a precise and fine wiring pattern.
Examples of stitches forming a wiring line formed of a conductive yarn of the present invention include a single chain stitch, a hand-sewing stitch, a Lock stitch and a double ring sewing stitch, although it is not particularly limited. They can be selected properly according to the position and/or the purpose of forming the wiring line.
Examples of the articles having the wiring line formed of a conductive yarn of the present invention, which are the base materials on which the wiring line is formed, include a fabric such as a woven fabric, a knitted fabric and a non-woven fabric made of various kinds of fibers, sheet or a film made of a resin such as a synthetic resin or a natural resin, paper, and natural leather.
Composite base materials wherein two or more base materials selected from the above materials are laminated each other can also be used. Examples of the composite base materials include a resin-coated fabric and a synthetic leather.
Examples of various kinds of fibers capable of forming a fabric include a synthetic fiber such as polyester, polyamide, polyurethane, and polyethylene; a natural fiber such as cotton, hemp, and silk; a mixed spinning fiber thereof; and a mixed fiber thereof.
Examples of the synthetic resins capable of forming the sheet or film include polyethylene, polyester, polyamide, polyurethane, and polyvinyl chloride. Examples of the natural resins capable of forming the sheet or film include a natural rubber.
Examples of the resin-coated fabric include a laminate of a fabric and a film or sheet made of a synthetic resin and a fabric obtained by coating a synthetic resin thereon and drying. Examples of the synthetic leathers include a laminate of a fabric and a polyurethane resin.
