WIRE NET SEAM AND METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MAKING IT

摘要

A joint for wire cloth in which free loop portions at adjacent edges to be joined penetrate edges of an opposed wire cloth and are held open so that a locking wire penetrates through the loops; a method of joining the loops which includes holding loops of one wire open by means of a U-shaped bar so that the locking wire can be threaded into the bar and the loops, and as the locking wire is so threaded simultaneously withdrawing the U-shaped bar which has been holding the loops open; and apparatus for effecting the joining of loops of adjacent ends of wire cloth in which the loop forming seams are retained in a position so that a U-shaped bar can be introduced through one of the loops and holds them open for receiving free loops of a wire-screw so that a locking wire can be introduced through interdigitated loops of the wire cloths being joined.
