Wall construction material comprising a rigid support with a textile material facing laminated thereto
First Claim
1. A laminated structure for use in wall construction comprising:
- (a) a rigid support having a support surface; and
(b) an integrally self-lined textile material having a front surface and a rear surface, said material being adhesively bonded on its rear surface to the support surface and comprising;
(i) a nonwoven spun fibrous batting constituting the rear surface of the textile material;
(ii) a layer of filling disposed upon the batting;
(iii) one or more warp elements disposed upon the filling so as to constitute the front surface of the textile material; and
(iv) a single system of knitting thread wales, each wale comprising a multiplicity of warpwise looped stitch courses which engage and hold together the batting, filling and warp elements by loops of knitting thread on the rear surface of the textile material and by laps of the knitting thread courses on the front surface to bind together into an integrated unitary textile structure the batting, filling, and warp elements.

Abstract
A laminated structure for use in wall construction is disclosed which comprises a rigid support and an integrally self-lined textile material having a front surface and a rear surface and adhesively bonded on its rear surface to the rigid support. The textile material comprises, in one embodiment, (i) a nonwoven spun fibrous batting constituting the rear surface of the textile material and capable of being stitched-through without substantial loss of strength by knitting thread; (ii) a layer of filling disposed upon the batting; (iii) one or more warp elements disposed upon the filling so as to constitute the front surface of the textile material; and (iv) a single system of knitting thread wales, each wale comprising a multiplicity of warpwise looped stitch courses which engage and hold together the batting, filling and warp elements into an integrated unitary textile structure.
