Abstract
Abstract The fabric comprises a novel type of netting which will have particular utility in screening out mosquitoes and like insects and pests. The fabric is defined of voids having depth as well as width and length. The fabric is usable as a material from which to form clothing for wear, or bed coverings, or sleeping bags, etc., besides use simply as a netting.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
206 words
A fabric for body protection, comprising: a multiplicity of continuous first strands lying in a first plane parallel to, and spaced apart from each other in said first plane; a multiplicity of continuous, second strands lying in a second plane which is parallel to said first plane, said second strands lying in said second plane parallel to, and spaced apart from each other; a multiplicity of continuous third strands, parallel to and spaced apart from each other, and extending perpendicular to and coupled to said first strands; a multiplicity of continuous fourth strands, parallel to and spaced apart from each other, and extending perpendicular to and coupled to said second strands; and means coupling between said first and second strands and said third and fourth strands, only in a plane normal to both said first and second planes and said fabric, effecting a spaced-apart relationship between said first and second strands and between said third and fourth strands; wherein said first, second, third and fourth strands, and said coupling means, cooperate to define a first multiplicity of throughgoing voids, extending perpendicularly of said first and second planes, and a second multiplicity of throughgoing voids which extend parallel with said first and second planes, in said fabric.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
206 words
A fabric for body protection, comprising: a multiplicity of continuous first strands lying in a first plane parallel to, and spaced apart from each other in said first plane; a multiplicity of continuous, second strands lying in a second plane which is parallel to said first plane, said second strands lying in said second plane parallel to, and spaced apart from each other; a multiplicity of continuous third strands, parallel to and spaced apart from each other, and extending perpendicular to and coupled to said first strands; a multiplicity of continuous fourth strands, parallel to and spaced apart from each other, and extending perpendicular to and coupled to said second strands; and means coupling between said first and second strands and said third and fourth strands, only in a plane normal to both said first and second planes and said fabric, effecting a spaced-apart relationship between said first and second strands and between said third and fourth strands; wherein said first, second, third and fourth strands, and said coupling means, cooperate to define a first multiplicity of throughgoing voids, extending perpendicularly of said first and second planes, and a second multiplicity of throughgoing voids which extend parallel with said first and second planes, in said fabric.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words
A fabric, according to claim 1, wherein: said coupling means comprises a multiplicity of coupling strands.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
A fabric, according to claim 1, wherein: said first, second, third and said fourth strands, and said coupling strands are fused together whereat each thereof defines an interface with others thereof.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
A fabric, according to claim 1, wherein: all said voids have a width and length of between 0.03125 and 0.125-inch.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A fabric, according to claim 1 wherein: said first strands are spaced apart from said second strands a distance taken from a range of from approximately 1/16- to 1/4-inch.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
29 words
A fabric, according to claim 1 wherein: said coupling means comprises beads threaded onto strands, and said latter strands are joined to said first, second, third and fourth strands.
