Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
46 words
A metalized fabric consisting of: an outer layer of woven fabric; an inner layer of plastic film secured on one side to the outer layer of fabric; and a continuous outer layer of electrically conductive metal, vapor deposited on the other side of the plastic film.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
46 words
A metalized fabric consisting of: an outer layer of woven fabric; an inner layer of plastic film secured on one side to the outer layer of fabric; and a continuous outer layer of electrically conductive metal, vapor deposited on the other side of the plastic film.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
33 words
The metalized fabric according to claim 1 wherein the outer layer of fabric is plastic and wherein the inner layer of film is secured to the outer layer of fabric by extrusion lamination.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
The metalized fabric according to claim 2 wherein the outer layer of fabric and the inner layer of film are made of the same plastic material to strengthen the bond therebetween resulting from extrusion lamination.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
81 words
A method of manufacturing a metalized fabric comprising the steps of: vapor depositing a continuous outer layer of electrically conductive metal onto one side of a layer of plastic film; extrusion laminating an outer layer of plastic fabric onto the other side of the plastic film by interposing a thin layer of molten plastic between the non-metalized surface of the film and one surface of the fabric; and drawing the fabric and the film through a nip between two compression rollers.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
81 words
A method of manufacturing a metalized fabric comprising the steps of: vapor depositing a continuous outer layer of electrically conductive metal onto one side of a layer of plastic film; extrusion laminating an outer layer of plastic fabric onto the other side of the plastic film by interposing a thin layer of molten plastic between the non-metalized surface of the film and one surface of the fabric; and drawing the fabric and the film through a nip between two compression rollers.
Claim 7
Independent Claim
91 words
A method of manufacturing a metalized fabric comprising the steps of: vapor depositing a continuous outer layer of electrically conductive metal onto one side of a layer of plastic film; extrusion laminating an outer layer of plastic fabric onto the other side of the plastic film by interposing a thin layer of molten plastic of the same type as the film and the fabric between the non-metalized surface of the film and one surface of the fabric; and drawing the fabric and the film between a nip between two compression rollers.
Claim 8
Independent Claim
