Blind web of a slatted blind and method of manufacturing it

摘要

A blind (1) for winding up on a horizontally arranged winding roller has slats (2). These can be folded about a bending line (3) running parallel to their edges. There are two sets of connection strands (4, 7), of which the strands (4) of the first set interconnect the first edges (5) and the strands (7) of the second set interconnect the other edges (8) of the slats (2). The connection strands are arranged on the same slat side. By relative displacement of the two sets, both slats are folded and expose relatively large passage gaps. A method for manufacturing such a blind envisages that all slats (2) and the associated connection strands (4, 7) are produced as a common fabric web on a warp knitting machine. The edges of adjacent slats are interconnected by separating threads. These are later removed. <IMAGE>
