CONTENTS OF INVENTION

Design purpose: In order to avoid the disadvantage in the background technologies, the present invention designs a plant simulation decorative cloth/mesh mainly used for decoration of the elevation, plane and irregular surface, resulting no second environmental pollution and having the plant simulation decorative effect.

Design scheme: The following design scheme is adopted in order to attain the above design purpose: 1. One of the technical features of the present invention is a design that the simulation plant is covered on one or both sides of the cloth or mesh. This is done for the following purpose: Because the cloth is nonmetallic cloth or metal wire cloth that have good flexibility, it allows the imitation plant to be expediently fixed thereon, forming a surface covered with the leaves on one or both sides. 2. The second of the technical features of the present invention is a design that the simulation plant is composed of two or more green leaves that have an overall structure of connection in strip form at their roots with each other. This is done for the following purpose: Because the imitation plant is composed of two or more green leaves that have an overall structure of connection in strip form at their roots with each other, the roots of the two or more green leaves can be fixed on the cloth or mesh expediently and firmly; or because the imitation plant is composed of two or more green leaves and flowers that have an overall structure of connection at their roots with each other, the roots of the two or more green leaves and the roots of the flowers can be fixed on the cloth or mesh expediently and firmly; or because the imitation plant is composed of two or more green leaves and fruits that have an overall structure of connection at their roots with each other, the roots of the two or more green leaves and the roots of the fruits can be fixed on the cloth or mesh expediently and firmly. 3. The third of the technical features of the present invention is a design that the nonmetallic or metallic mesh is woven by a strip longitudinal mesh tendon and a strip horizontal mesh tendon formed by the multiple warps and wefts, with the multiple strip longitudinal cloth tendons and the multiple strip horizontal cloth tendons forming holes therebetween. This is done for the following purposes: (1) The face formed by the multiple strip longitudinal and horizontal mesh tendons composed of the metallic or nonmetallic warps and wefts is of a porous mesh, where not only the longitudinal and horizontal mesh tendon face can satisfy the combination with the roots of the green leaves, but also the strip mesh tendon has high strength, good flexibility, and easy folding performance; (2) because the longitudinal and horizontal strip mesh tendons are composed of multiple warps and wefts, and the tiny holes within the longitudinal and horizontal strip mesh tendons can not only allow the sewing needle to go through but also be easy to be fixed by splicing and bonding, the longitudinal and horizontal strip mesh tendons can allow the roots, flowers and fruits connected with the green leaves to be fixed to the strip mesh tendon conveniently, fast and reliably; (3) this design not only enjoys high manufacturing efficiency, low cost, and convenient transport by folding, but also avoids falling off of the green leaves, not to mention the secondary environmental pollution. 4. The fourth of the technical features of the present invention is a design that the nonmetallic cloth or the metal wire cloth is woven by a strip longitudinal cloth tendon and a strip horizontal cloth tendon formed by the multiple warps and wefts, with the multiple strip longitudinal cloth tendons and the multiple strip horizontal cloth tendons forming porous nonmetallic cloth or metal wire cloth therebetween. This is done for the following purposes: (1) The face formed by the multiple strip longitudinal and horizontal cloth tendons composed of the metallic and nonmetallic warps and wefts or the nonmetallic warps and wefts is of a porous cloth, where not only the longitudinal and horizontal cloth tendon face can satisfy the combination with the roots of the green leaves, but also the strip cloth tendon has high strength, good flexibility, and easy folding performance; (2) because the longitudinal and horizontal strip cloth tendons are woven with multiple warps and wefts, and can not only allow the sewing needle to go through but also be easy to be fixed by splicing, bonding, strapping, winding and snapping, they can fix the roots connected with the green leaves, flowers and fruits to the strip cloth tendon conveniently, fast and reliably; (3) this design not only enjoys high manufacturing efficiency, low cost, and convenient transport by folding, but also avoids falling off of the green leaves, not to mention the secondary environmental pollution.

What needs to be understood is as follows: Although the above examples make a more detailed text description of the design concept of the present invention, the text description is just a simple text description of the design concept of the present invention, rather than restriction of the design concept of the present invention; any combination, addition and amendment not beyond the design concept of the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

In a preferred embodiment is a stem that connects the leaves of a simulation plant to the plant simulation decorative cloth. The stem is a connector that is comprised of metal wire or wires and a fabric covering, for example cotton. The combination of these materials gives the stem a unique physical property of being flexible yet elastic. This is exhibited in the way it gives the leaves a life-like realism effect in the way the leaves shake and/or move upon any disturbance. The stem can be sewn or glued onto the cloth, by machine. If sewn onto the cloth, the extended part of the stem's cotton fabric covering is sewn onto the cloth. The metal wire can be copper or aluminum or iron or titanium or copper alloy or brass, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy, with a cross-sectional area of 1.5, or 2.5, or 4, or 6 square millimeter. Other unique properties of the stem are that it is more slender than stems without the present invention's metal wire; the stem has a better stereoscopic effect than stems without the present invention's metal wire for supporting the standing of the plant; the plant stem can flexibly bend or be set at different angles according to a user's requirements, and then return elastically to its original position; and the leaves can swing slightly so that the simulation plant looks life-like.

This embodiment is illustrated by FIG. 3 wherein the stem which is comprised of metal wires and wrapped in fabric, connects the simulation leaf to the simulation decorative cloth.
