A net is particularly suitable for a basket for pisciculture, which may be placed in sea or fresh water. The net is made of a wire material, producible from individual spiral or similarly bent longitudinal elements, wherein adjacent threads are woven together. The net is simple and economical to produce, for example, by threading each longitudinal element into engagement with another longitudinal element while it has a shape of a spiral or screw to thereby provide it with a cylindrical form, and compressing each longitudinal element, when having the cylindrical form and after being threaded into engagement with the another longitudinal element, to provide the longitudinal element with substantially straight wire sections. The threading and compression steps are repeated to form a net after compression of several longitudinal elements threaded to one another. |

A spiral double-twisted structure is provided having an n-th upper steel wire (An) and an n-th lower steel wire (Bn) which are paired with each other and rotated in one direction to form a front spiral twisted structure having a plurality of twists. Further, a k-th transverse steel wire (Ck) may be transversely inserted between the n-th upper steel wire (An)and the n-th lower steel wire (Bn)of the front spiral twisted structure. Additionally, the n-th upper steel wire (An) and the n-th lower steel wire (Bn) may be rotated in a direction opposite to the one direction after passing over the k-th transversr steel wire (Ck) serving as a centerline, in order to form a rear spiral twisted structure having a plurality of twists. |

A protective mesh, especially for rockfall protection or to stabilise a layer of soil, is braided out of helically curved wires (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16). Rhomboidal meshes (17) are formed and in each case two adjacent helical wires (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16) are flexibly held together. The protective mesh (10) has a thickness which amounts to a multiple of the thickness of the wire. In at least some of the braided pairs of wires (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16), an essentially straight longitudinal reinforcement element (31, 32, 33, 34, 35) is guided through the coupling area (A) of the two helical wires, causing the rhomboidal meshes (17) to be divided into triangular meshes (17a, 17b). In these crucial areas of force transmission of the protective mesh, there are now three instead of two wires meeting, as the result of which the force absorption capacity of the protective mesh is substantially increased. |

Problems The present invention relates to a gabion unit formed by spiral double-twisted structures for the gabion unit, and a gabion mesh having the gabion units consecutively and repeatedly coupled to one another both in a right and left direction and in a fore and aft direction. The spiral double-twisted structure for the gabion unit of the present invention is characterized in that two longitudinal steel wires are spirally rotated in opposite directions before and after passing over one transverse steel wire serving as a centerline. Solution The present invention provides a gabion unit formed by coupling a plurality of spiral double-twisted structures for the gabion unit constructed as above to one another, and a gabion mesh formed by consecutively and repeatedly coupling a plurality of gabion units to one another in the right and left direction and in a fore and aft direction. Accordingly, the present invention can fully automate a conventional method for manufacturing a gabion mesh, thereby improving the production efficiency as many as 2 to 3 times over the conventional manufacturing method. |

Present day wire knitting machines are used to make wire mesh used in the manufacture of filters for airbag assemblies, catalytic converter seals, mechanical dampers, and the like, but are unable to knit large diameter wire, especially wire having a diameter greater than 0.025 inches. Provided herein is a looped wire made by wrapping the wire around a mandrel in multiplie layers and then pressed to flatten the loops. Thereafter, the flattened loop is formed using the same processes suitable for forming wire mesh into such articles. |

A method and apparatus are provided for constructing a security screen that includes several parallel security threads woven into a fine screen mesh. Adjacent ends (42, 44) of adjacent security threads (21, 22) are joined together or to a splicing thread (40), to create a continuous strand (60) that extends in a sinuous path through the entire screen mesh, and the continuous strand is used to pull a security wire (64), such as an insulated copper wire through the screen mesh. By joining opposite ends of a long splicing wire to adjacent ends of two security threads, applicant is able to join the security threads into a continuous strand, without cutting away a lot of screen mesh. An end of a security thread is pressure-butt welded to an end of another security thread or to the splicing thread by holding the end of the security thread and pushing in and crinkling the fine screen mesh so the end of the security thread is accessible for welding. Instead of initially weaving Teflon-coated wire into the mesh, applicant weaves aluminum wire. |

An improved animal barrier material and an improved fastening system to simplify its knotting process are disclosed. In the preferred embodiment, a plurality of multi-stranded metallic cables are joined together using parallel overhand knots. A pair of metallic cables may be taken together to form substantially adjacent portions which then form a loop. The pair of metallic cables passes around a portion of the loop and through the loop to form a overhand know. Such a knot minimizes stress and fatigue on the netting and makes the netting nearly invisible to the naked eye at a distance of more than a few feet. |

An improved system for operating a chain link fence weaving machine. The system includes an electronic motor coupled to a main spindle shaft of the weaving machine. A trough is disposed adjacent to a weaving blade attached to the main spindle and coupled to the weaving machine. The trough receives two intercoiled needles (picket) from the weaving blade for weaving the fence. The trough has first and second opposing portions positioned to receive the picket therebetween. A retaining slot extends between the first and second portions. The radius of the first portion of the trough is less than the radius of the second portion thereof to prevent the two intercoiled needles being woven in the trough from extending into the slot. An actuation mechanism opens and closes the retaining slot to frictionally engage or release a portion of the fence held in the slot. A control system is coupled to the motor for controlling the fabrication rate of fence being woven. The control system also controls the height and length of the fence being fabricated by the weaving machine. |

Disclosed is a structural material having a wire lattice configuration. The structural material can manufactured by first weaving a continuous wire filament on a loom assembly. Once woven into arrays of parallel wires, the filament is fixed in position and cut into segments. The segments are then placed in a rig. The rig positions the segments at relative angles so as to form a matrix or mesh. In the final step of the manufacturing process, the wires are welded together using, for example, a forge press. Alternatively, the material can be formed by first holding wire segments in a pair of rigs and then sequentially welding the wire segments together. The structural material of the invention can be used alone or layered to form a multilaminate material. |
