Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A skin material includes: a design layer; and a base cloth layer. The design layer includes a surface layer and a foam layer. The base cloth layer includes a surface fabric and a back fabric, and a binding yarn that binds the surface fabric and the back fabric. The binding yarn is a thermoplastic resin fiber erected between the surface fabric and the back fabric to form a gap between the surface fabric and the back fabric. The foam layer and the surface fabric are joined. An interior material includes the skin material and a base material to which the skin material is attached. A method for producing the skin material includes joining the surface layer and the base cloth layer via a foamable adhesive to serve as the foam layer.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A skin material comprising: a design layer and a base cloth layer, wherein the design layer includes a surface layer and a foam layer, the base cloth layer includes a surface fabric and a back fabric, and a binding yarn that binds the surface fabric and the back fabric, the binding yarn is a thermoplastic resin fiber erected between the surface fabric and the back fabric to form a gap between the surface fabric and the back fabric, the foam layer and the surface fabric are joined, and a three-dimensional design formed by narrowing the gap in a thickness direction to define an embossed pattern, wherein a thickness of the foam layer at a place not subjected to an embossing is substantially the same as a thickness of the foam layer at an embossed place. 2. The skin material according to claim 1 , wherein the foam layer is thicker than the surface layer and thinner than the base cloth layer. 3. The skin material according to claim 1 , wherein the foam layer has a closed cell. 4. An interior material comprising: the skin material according to claim 1 ; and a base material to which the skin material is attached. 5. A method for producing the skin material according to claim 1 , the method comprising: joining the surface layer and the base cloth layer via a foamable adhesive to serve as the foam layer.
