Abstract

A topographical support member and a method of forming a topographical support member for use in producing nonwoven fabrics with raised portions, especially intaglio and slub type portions. The topographical support member comprises a body having a top surface including a first micro-sized topographical pattern and a pattern of apertures extending through the body. At least one macro-sized region recessed below the top surface is provided. The micro-sized pattern produces a background portion of the fabric and the macro-sized recessed regions produce the raised portions of the fabric. Multiple levels may be provided in the macro-sized region to produce multiple level raised portions.

Claims (26)

1. A method for forming a topographical support member for producing nonwoven fabrics having at least one raised portion, said method comprising the steps of:
a) providing a workpiece;
b) forming a first micro-sized topographical pattern on a top surface of the workpiece;
c) forming a plurality of openings through said workpiece; and d) superimposing on said workpiece at least one macro-sized region recessed from said top surface.
2. The method of claim 1 wherein said recessed surface has a second micro-sized topographical pattern.
3. The method of claim 2 wherein said first and second topographical patterns are the same pattern.
4. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of forming the first topographical pattern includes laser drilling the top surface of said workpiece.
5. The method of claim 4 wherein said step of laser drilling includes moving a laser beam in a series of raster scan lines over the surface of the workpiece.
6. The method of claim 4 wherein the step of superimposing at least one macro-sized region includes laser ablating to a predetermined depth below said top surface.
7. The method of claim 6 wherein said laser ablating step including moving a laser beam in a series of raster scan lines over the top surface of the workpiece.
8. The method of claim 1 wherein said step of superimposing at least one macro-sized region includes the step of forming at least two of said regions at differing depths below the top surface.
9. The method of claim 1 wherein the step of superimposing at least one macro-sized region includes the step of forming a major surface recessed a first depth below the top surface and at least one minor surfaces recessed at depths different from said first depth.
10. The method of claim 9 wherein one minor surface is formed surrounding said major surface, said minor surface being recessed at a depth below said first depth, the width of said minor surface being substantially less than that of said major surface.
11. The method of claim 1 wherein steps (b) and (c) are performed by the steps of:
a) focusing a laser beam such that the focal point is below the top surface of said workpiece; and b) drilling with said laser beam a predetermined pattern of tapered apertures through said workpiece thereby forming an array of peaks and valleys surrounding each aperture on the top surface of the resulting support member.
12. The method of claim 11 wherein the center line to center line spacing of adjacent apertures is less than the major diameter of a conical top portion of each adjacent aperture.
13. The method of claim 12 wherein said array of peaks and valleys surrounding the pattern of tapered apertures is configured to provide a tricot-like nonwoven fabric.
14. A topographical support member for producing a nonwoven fabric comprising:
a) a body having a top surface including a first micro-sized topographical pattern;
b) a pattern of apertures extending through said body; and c) at least one macro-sized region recessed below said top surface.
15. The support member of claim 14 wherein said at least one macro-sized region has a second micro-sized topographical pattern on a top surface of said region.
16. The support member of claim 15 wherein said first and second topographical patterns are the same pattern.
17. The support member of claim 14 wherein said at least one macro-sized region includes a major surface recessed a first depth below the top surface and at least one minor surfaces recessed at depths different from said first depth.
18. The support member of claim 17 wherein said macro-sized region includes one minor surface surrounding said major surface, said minor surface being recessed at a depth below said first depth, the width of said minor surface being substantially less than the width of said major surface.
19. The support member of claim 14 wherein said first micro-sized topographical pattern includes a pattern of a plurality of peaks and valleys, each of said apertures having a conical top portion surrounded by a cluster of said peaks and valleys.
20. The support member of claim 19 wherein the center line to center line spacing of adjacent apertures is less than the major diameter of the conical top portion of each adjacent aperture.
21. The support member of claim 20 wherein said pattern of the plurality of peaks, valleys and apertures being configured to produce a tricot-like nonwoven fabric.
22. The support member of claim 19 wherein said at least one macro-sized region includes a pattern of a plurality of peaks and valleys surrounding each aperture which is the same as said first micro-sized topographical pattern.
23. The support member of claim 14 wherein said first topographical pattern includes a repeating pattern of peaks and valleys and wherein the cross-sectional width of said macro-sized region is greater than the spacing between the repeat of said repeating pattern.
24. The support member of claim 14 wherein said pattern of apertures is a matrix and wherein the cross-sectional width of said macro-sized region is greater than the spacing between the apertures in said matrix.
25. The support member of claim 14 wherein said first topographical pattern includes a repeating pattern of peaks and valleys and wherein the cross-sectional width of said macro-sized region is at least two times greater than the spacing between the repeat of said repeating pattern.
26. The support member of claim 14 wherein said pattern of apertures is a matrix and wherein the cross-sectional width of said macro-sized region is at least two times greater than the spacing between the aperture in said matrix.
