Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of manufacturing elastomer coated textile wearing apparel having an abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate having one raised napped surface, the raised fibrous naps having a height of from 1/8 inch to 1 inch to create an uneven base; fabricating a garment from said fabric; and coating the outer surface of said garment with an elastomeric resin to encapsulate individual nap fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included encapsulated fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of manufacturing elastomer coated textile wearing apparel having an abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate having one raised napped surface, the raised fibrous naps having a height of from 1/8 inch to 1 inch to create an uneven base; fabricating a garment from said fabric; and coating the outer surface of said garment with an elastomeric resin to encapsulate individual nap fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included encapsulated fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 3
Independent Claim 93 words
A method of manufacturing elastomer coated textile wearing apparel having an abrasion resistant wrinkle finish, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate to which there is attached a fibrous, non-woven textile web, said web having component fibers projecting outwardly to create an uneven base; fabricating a garment from said base fabric; and coating the outer surface of said garment with an elastomeric resin so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 4
Independent Claim 93 words
A method of manufacturing elastomer coated textile wearing apparel having an abrasion resistant wrinkle finish, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate to which there is attached a fibrous, non-woven textile web, said web having component fibers projecting outwardly to create an uneven base; fabricating a garment from said base fabric; and coating the outer surface of said garment with an elastomeric resin so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 90 words
A method of manufacturing an elastomer coated, abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish glove, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate to which there is attached a fibrous, non-woven textile web; said web having component fibers projecting outwardly to create an uneven base; fabricating a glove from said base fabric; and coating the outer surface of said glove with an elastomeric resin so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 90 words
A method of manufacturing an elastomer coated, abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish glove, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a textile fabric substrate to which there is attached a fibrous, non-woven textile web; said web having component fibers projecting outwardly to create an uneven base; fabricating a glove from said base fabric; and coating the outer surface of said glove with an elastomeric resin so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting fibers, whereby the coating is reinforced and strengthened by the included fibers and a wrinkle finish is obtained.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 106 words
A method of manufacturing an abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish glove, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a jersey knit to which there is needled on the flat side a non-woven, fibrous web, said web having component fibers projecting outwardly; fabricating a glove from said base fabric with the needled surface as the outer glove surface; applying a curable, elastomeric polymer resin to said outer glove surface so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting gibers in the coating; and curing the applied resin, whereby an abrasion resistant wrinkle finish textured outer glove surface is obtained with a reinforcement of the coating by the encapsulated fibers.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 106 words
A method of manufacturing an abrasion resistant, wrinkle finish glove, which comprises; providing a base fabric which comprises a jersey knit to which there is needled on the flat side a non-woven, fibrous web, said web having component fibers projecting outwardly; fabricating a glove from said base fabric with the needled surface as the outer glove surface; applying a curable, elastomeric polymer resin to said outer glove surface so as to encapsulate the outwardly projecting gibers in the coating; and curing the applied resin, whereby an abrasion resistant wrinkle finish textured outer glove surface is obtained with a reinforcement of the coating by the encapsulated fibers.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 11 words
The method of claim 4 wherein said resin in natural rubber.
