Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a textile electronic arrangement, to an electronic textile comprising such an arrangement, and to a method for manufacturing an electronic textile.
  • a convenient way of providing electronic components to a textile substrate is to attach to the textile substrate one or several textile "strings" (ribbon(s), yarn(s) etc) having the electronic devices pre-mounted thereon.
  • the electronic components should be connected to each other and/or to an external device, such as a power supply or a control device.
  • Such connections are currently typically made using soldering or by crimp connections.
  • connection methods are not well suited for a textile production environment.
  • a general object of the present invention is to enable an improved process for manufacturing an electronic textile.
  • the present invention provides a textile electronic arrangement for attachment to a textile substrate, comprising an elongated textile carrier comprising at least one electrical conductor extending along the length of the elongated textile carrier; a plurality of electronic components arranged along the elongated textile carrier and electrically connected to the at least one electrical conductor; and a plurality of connector elements arranged along the elongated textile carrier and electrically connected to the at least one electrical conductor for enabling electrical connection of the electronic components to an external power supply or to other electronic components.
  • textile should, in the context of the present application, be understood a material or product manufactured by textile fibers.
  • the textile may, for example, be manufactured by means of weaving, braiding, knitting, crocheting, quilting, or felting.
  • a textile may be woven or non- woven.
  • the "elongated textile carrier” may advantageously be provided as a relatively narrow textile structure, such as a ribbon, a tape, a string, a yarn etc.
  • the elongated textile carrier may be considerably narrower than the textile substrate to which it is intended to be attached.
  • the largest width currently envisaged (for banner applications etc.) is about 12 cm.
  • the width of the elongated textile carrier (and of the textile electronic arrangement according to the present aspect of the invention) may typically be considerably narrower, such as having a width below 6 cm.
  • the electrical conductor comprised in the elongated textile carrier may be provided on the surface of the carrier, or may be a structural component of the elongated textile carrier.
  • the electrical conductor(s) may, for example, be formed by a conductive substance that may be applied to the elongated textile carrier.
  • a conductive substance may, for example, be a conductive glue or a conductive ink.
  • the conductive substance may, for instance, be applied to the elongated textile carrier using dispensing techniques, printing (including screen printing and inkjet printing), or painting using a suitable brush or similar.
  • the present invention is based on the realization that the production of an electronic textile can be facilitated by providing connector elements to a component carrying elongated textile carrier. Through such connector elements, the electronic components can easily be connected to each other and/or to an external power supply. Hereby, the reliability and robustness of the electronic textile can be improved. Furthermore, the production can be facilitated.
  • the elongated textile carrier may be a ribbon.
  • the ribbon may be manufactured using any suitable textile production technique, such as weaving, knitting or braiding.
  • the at least one electrical conductor comprised in the elongated textile carrier may be a conductive yarn. This may typically be the case when the elongated textile carrier is manufactured using yarns, that is, using techniques such as the above- mentioned weaving, knitting or braiding.
  • One or several conductive yarns may also be stitched to the elongated textile carrier, which means that the elongated textile carrier may also be made of a so-called "non- woven" material.
  • the conductive yarn may have an electrically conductive outer surface.
  • Such a yarn will be easier to connect electronic components etc to than a yarn having an insulating sheath, but to avoid short-circuits where this is not intended, conductive yarns should be separated from each other, for example by non-conductive yarns.
  • a “yarn” is generally defined as a long continuous length of interlocked fibers or filaments, suitable for use in the production of textiles, sewing, crocheting, knitting, weaving, embroidery and rope making.
  • a "conductive yarn” is a yarn that is capable of conducting electric current. This can be achieved by providing a yarn with one or several conductive filament(s), or coating a non-conductive yarn with a conductive coating.
  • an advantageous way of electrically connecting the connector elements to conductor(s) may be to use a so-called anisotropically conductive adhesive.
  • the connector elements can, in a convenient manner, be electrically connected to the appropriate electrical conductors without short-circuiting the conductors.
  • the anisotropic conductive adhesive may additionally be used to mechanically attach the connector elements to the elongated textile carrier, which may alleviate the need for separate attachment means.
  • the textile electronic arrangement may comprise at least two electrical conductors each having an electrically insulating sheath, the electrical conductors being interlocked to form a conductive yarn having a plurality of connection locations along the length thereof, wherein the electronic components and the connector elements are provided at respective ones of these connection locations.
  • Some or each of the conductors may either be an individual conductive filament, or a conductive yarn.
  • the textile electronic arrangement according to the various embodiments of the first aspect of the present invention may advantageously be included in an electronic textile, further comprising a textile substrate to which the textile electronic arrangement is attached.
  • the textile electronic arrangement may be attached to the textile substrate using any suitable means, such as, for example, stitching, embroidery, clamping, gluing, ultrasonic welding, etc.
  • the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an electronic textile, comprising the steps of providing a textile substrate; arranging, on the textile substrate, a plurality of segments of a textile electronic arrangement comprising an elongated textile carrier, each segment having at least one electronic component electrically connected thereto; and interconnecting the segments using a connector element for each segment.
  • each segment of the textile electronic arrangement may be a part of a single continuous textile arrangement being attached to the textile substrate, or may be a separate textile arrangement being attached to the textile substrate.
  • the production of a robust electronic textile is facilitated through the use of the inventive method.
  • the electronic textile may be made functional through the interconnection.
  • the step of interconnecting may comprise the step of interconnecting connector elements being pre-arranged on the textile arrangement.
  • the step of interconnecting may comprise the steps of attaching a connector element to each of the segments in such a way that the connector element is electrically connected to the at least one electronic component; and interconnecting the connector elements using an electrical conductor.
  • each connector element may be configured to make electrical connection via one or several terminal(s) of a respective electronic component comprised in the textile electronic arrangement.
  • the connector element may have an outline which is adapted to the particular electronic component.
  • the connector element may be shaped in such a way that the electronic component is not completely covered by the connector element. For instance, the connector element may then have an open structure at least partly framing the electronic component.
  • the connector element may be configured to make electrical connection directly to the conductor(s) in the textile electronic arrangement.
  • the step of attaching may then comprise the step of locally removing the electrically conductive sheath to electrically connect the connector element to the conductive yarn.
  • the electrically conductive sheath may be locally removed using at least one of heat and penetration using a sharp structure.
  • the connector element may be heated to locally melt the insulating layer covering the conductor(s), and in the latter case, the connector element may include a sharp structure which penetrates the insulating layer when pressed against the conductor(s). A combination of heat and penetration may also be used.
