Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2008077544A1] The present invention relates to an artificial turf (1) and a method for producing an artificial turf (1) comprising a ground fabric made from synthetic ground warp yarns and synthetic weft yarns and a number of plastic blades of grass (2) protruding from the ground fabric in the shape of pile burls which succeed one another in the warp direction and which each comprise two pile legs (2a), in which at least three and at most nine weft yarns (3) are inserted between two successive pile legs (2a). In particular, each pile leg (2a) is tied up around a different weft yarn (3) which are both situated between the two pile legs. As the distance between the two pile legs of a pile burl is only half that of the distance between the pile legs during tufting, the material consumption in terms of plastic grass blade yarn will be greatly reduced. In addition, artificial turf (1) of this type has the advantage that the pile burls and in particular the plastic blades of grass are evenly distributed across the fabric.
