Patent ID: 7431055

Claim:
Method for weaving a pile fabric with areas having a corded structure, a backing fabric being woven on a weaving machine by inserting backing-weft yarns ( 6 , 7 ) during successive weft insertion cycles between binding and tension warp yarns, whereas pattern-weft yarns ( 3 , 4 ) are inserted outside the backing fabric and are covered by pile warp yarns ( 1 ), forming cords, characterized in that successive series of at least two different pattern-weft yarns ( 3 , 4 ) are inserted into the pile fabric in one or several areas having a corded structure and in that at least one pattern-weft yarn ( 3 , 4 ) of each series is running essentially above the warp yarns in a first part of its trajectory and is forming the pattern, and is covered by pile warp yarns ( 1 ) essentially forming cords in a second part of its trajectory, so that a predetermined pattern or design is formed.
