摘要

A papermakers felt composed of a pin seam base fabric (1) and a needled batt (7) and having a reinforced batt flap (9) covering the pin seam. The ends of the woven base fabric (1) are provided with interdigitated loops (4) which are connected by a pin (5) to form a pin seam joint. A layer of machine direction yarns (6) are disposed on a face of the base fabric (1) and extend across the joint. A fibrous batt (2) is needled into the base fabric and machine direction yarns. To install the felt on a papermaking machine, the batt is slit at a location (8) spaced from the joint and the portion of the batt between the slit (8) and the joint is pulled away from the base fabric to provide a flap (9). The machine direction yarns (6) are separated from the base fabric along the batt and serve to reinforce the batt flap (9), preventing the flap from tearing away from the felt.
