Abstract
Abstract The structure comprises a stack of superimposed layers of bi-dimensional reinforcing material and rectilinear reinforcing elements which traverse said stack through and through and which are arranged in at least two directions different from each other, each reinforcing element being at an angle with the plane that is tangential to the layers it traverses.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
99 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material and rectilinear reinforcing elements which traverse said stack through and through, and comprising at least two imbricate groups of rods rigid regularly spacely distributed with the groups arranged in at least two different directions; each reinforcing element being at an angle with the plane that is tangential to the sheets it traverses and at least one of said directions being at an angle with the perpendicular to the traversed sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delemination.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
99 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material and rectilinear reinforcing elements which traverse said stack through and through, and comprising at least two imbricate groups of rods rigid regularly spacely distributed with the groups arranged in at least two different directions; each reinforcing element being at an angle with the plane that is tangential to the sheets it traverses and at least one of said directions being at an angle with the perpendicular to the traversed sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delemination.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
A structure as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rods in each group have a direction which is throughout the whole volume of the stack different from that of the rods of each other group.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
A structure as claimed in claim 2, wherein the directions of the rods of at least two different groups are at an angle with the perpendicular to said sheets on either side of said perpendicular.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
105 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed plane sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material and rectilinear rigid reinforcing rods each traversing said stack through and through, said rods constituting at least two imbricate groups, with the rods in each group being regularly spacely distributed and having a same direction which is throughout the whole volume of the stack different from that of the rods of each other group, the rods of at least one group having a direction which is at an angle with the perpendicular to the sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delamination.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
105 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed plane sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material and rectilinear rigid reinforcing rods each traversing said stack through and through, said rods constituting at least two imbricate groups, with the rods in each group being regularly spacely distributed and having a same direction which is throughout the whole volume of the stack different from that of the rods of each other group, the rods of at least one group having a direction which is at an angle with the perpendicular to the sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delamination.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
A structure as claimed in claim 4, wherein the elements in each group are arranged in rows parallel to each other, the rows of elements of different groups being alternatively arranged.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
85 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material arranged on coaxial surfaces of revolution and rectilinear rigid reinforcing rods each traversing said stack through and through, said rods constituting at least two imbricate groups with the rods of each group being arranged along meridian planes, and the rods of at least one group being at an angle with the perpendicular to the traversed sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delamination.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
85 words
A reinforced laminated structure for composite materials, which structure consists of a stack of superimposed sheets of bi-dimensional reinforcing material arranged on coaxial surfaces of revolution and rectilinear rigid reinforcing rods each traversing said stack through and through, said rods constituting at least two imbricate groups with the rods of each group being arranged along meridian planes, and the rods of at least one group being at an angle with the perpendicular to the traversed sheets, whereby said rods prevent said superimposed sheets from delamination.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
44 words
A structure as claimed in claim 6, wherein the rods constitute at least two imbricate groups with the elements of each group being arranged in rows extending along meridian planes, the rows of elements of the different groups being arranged in alternate meridian planes.
