Description

Description of the Prior Art

Recently, shoe body formed by woven textile becomes popular because of its better flexibility, fitting, permeability, and appearance. Shoe body having woven textile surface can be seen in sneakers of major brands.

Because the woven textile is mesh-like to have plural through holes, the shoelace is usually inserted through the through holes directly. To enhance the structure at the position where the shoelace is inserted, special pattern of weaving is used to form larger shoelace holes, as shown in patent TW 1632875. However, the woven textile is extremely difficult to design and weave. Different shoes need different designs. In addition, when the shoelace is pulled, part of the woven textile is also pulled so that the woven textile deforms irresversibly.

Patent TW M546126 shows another structure. Eyelet pieces are fixed on the fringe of the woven textile by melting or adhering. Though the woven textile is prevented from deformation, the process of manufacture is complicated. In addition, the eyelet pieces may fall off after using. Besides, the woven textile is disfeatured.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main object of the present invention is to provide a woven textile having loops at fringe thereof for other objects to hook onto. In addition, the woven textile is easy to manufacture and is prevented from easy deformation.

To achieve the above and other objects, the woven textile of the present invention includes a woven body and an engaging portion. The woven body is woven by at least one thread and has a plurality through holes. The engaging portion comprises at least one filament. The at least one filament is woven with the at least one thread and extends with the at least one thread. The at least one filament extends away from the woven body for a distance and extends reversely back to the woven body to form a loop outside at least one fringe of the woven body. The filament forms a plurality of the loops at intervals.

Thereby, the woven textile has a plurality of loops at the fringe for other objects to hook onto. Even if the loops are pulled outward, the woven body may not deform.

The present invention will become more obvious from the following description when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferred embodiment(s) in accordance with the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, the woven textile of the present invention includes a woven body 10 and an engaging portion 20. The woven body 10 is woven by at least one thread and has a plurality through holes. The engaging portion 20 comprises at least one filament 21. The at least one filament 21 is woven with the at least one thread and extends with the at least one thread. The at least one filament 21 extends away from the woven body 10 for a distance and extends reversely back to the woven body 10 to form a loop 22 outside at least one fringe of the woven body 10. The at least one filament 21 forms a plurality of the loops 22 at intervals. Preferably, the at least one filament 21 extends outward from one face of the woven body 10 and further extends reversely to an other face of the woven body 10 to form one of the loops 22.

In the present embodiment, the at least one thread includes at least one first woven thread 11 and at least one binding thread 12. The at least one first woven thread 11 extends in a meandering way. The at least one binding thread 12 is knotted with the at least one first woven thread 11 to fix the at least one first woven thread 11 to form the through holes. Specifically, a plurality of the first woven threads 11 are included. The first woven threads 11 are parallel aligned to be a plurality of rows. The first woven threads 11 extend in a same meandering way. Adjacent first woven threads 11 overlap partially. The at least binding thread 12 is knotted to an overlap portion of two adjacent first woven threads 11.

More specifically, the at least one thread further includes a plurality of second woven threads 13. The second woven threads 13 are parallel aligned to be a plurality of rows. The second woven threads 13 extend in a same meandering way and have a plurality of crests 131 and troughs 132 respectively. Each of the crests 131 of each of the second woven threads 13 is located between two adjacent troughs 132 of an adjacent second woven thread 13 and is adjacent to the two troughs 132. The first woven threads 11 and the second woven threads 13 are stacked together so that the overlap portions of the first woven threads 11 correspond to the crests 131 and the troughs 132 of the second woven threads 13. The at least one binding thread 12 is knotted with the overlap portions of the first woven threads 11 and the crests 131 and the troughs 132 of the second woven threads 13 to fix the first woven threads 11 and the second woven threads 13 together. In addition, an extending direction of the at least one binding thread 12 is the same with both an extending direction of the first woven threads 11 and an extending direction of the second woven threads 13. Besides, more preferably, the at least one filament 21 is woven with one of the first woven thread 11 at a fringe of the woven body 10.

In the present embodiment, the engaging portion 20 includes two said filaments 21 woven with the at least one thread at two sides of the woven body 10 to form a plurality of loops 22 respectively. Thereby, when the woven body 10 is bent and curled, the loops 22 formed by the two filaments 21 correspond to each other for engagement.

In use, as shown in FIG. 3, the woven textile can be used on the surface of shoe body 30 or other object. When the engaging portion 20 is located beside the shoe tongue, the paired loops 22 can be used for shoelace 31 to insert through.

In conclusion, the loops of the woven textile of the present invention are formed by other filament instead of formed directly from the mesh of the woven body. Thus, when the loops are pulled by the shoelace, the woven body may not deform partially. In addition, the shape, the size, the interval, and the material of the loops can be alternated and different from the woven body, and the process of manufacture is simpler. Besides, any finished product can be further processed to add the engaging portion.
