A press cover has at least one polymer layer in which a reinforcing structure is embedded. The reinforcing structure has at least one reinforcing thread as a longitudinal thread which runs in the longitudinal direction of the press cover. The at least one reinforcing thread itself is produced by interlacing a plurality of fibers or fiber bundles with one another. There is also described the use of such a press cover, as well as a press roll and a shoe press.

Press cover, use thereof, and press roll and shoe press

A woven-fabric belt for a fibrous web machine includes longitudinal and cross threads forming crossing points, top and bottom sides and a seam segment. Each longitudinal thread has end segments with ends. A segment is formed by weaving end segments with cross threads. Some end segments follow a weaving path with the cross threads, along which an end segment forms floats on the sides in alternation in direction of the thread end and a float is disposed on the bottom side between two adjacent floats on the top side and vice versa. A last float before the thread end is formed on one side and the end segment switches from one side to the other following the last float before the thread end. The end segment is bonded to a cross thread at one thread crossing point in one float lying before the last float in the weaving path.
