Band zum Bilden einer dekorativen Schleife

摘要

A bow-forming ribbon has a decorative flexible ribbon member and a drawstring connected loosely to the ribbon at points along its length by relatively stiff retainer members. Each retainer member extends generally transversely across the ribbon member, and each is inclined with respect to the transverse direction at an angle. Each retainer member is inclined at an angle different from that of the preceding retainer member. On forming the ribbon into a bow by pulling the drawstring relative to the ribbon, the inclined retainer members tend to skew the adjacent loops or segments of the bow relative to one another, so that loops distributed at various angles around the axis of the bow are formed, thus avoiding the tendency for the successive loops to seat themselves on one another in a fan shape.
