Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 69 words
A net-like structure comprising at least two crossing layers, the first of said layers being a plurality of first helical filaments the axes of which are parallel and the second of said layers being a plurality of second helical filaments the axes of which are parallel but intersect the axes of said first helical filaments, said first and second helical filaments being fused together at each point of intersection.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 69 words
A net-like structure comprising at least two crossing layers, the first of said layers being a plurality of first helical filaments the axes of which are parallel and the second of said layers being a plurality of second helical filaments the axes of which are parallel but intersect the axes of said first helical filaments, said first and second helical filaments being fused together at each point of intersection.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 1 wherein there is at least a partial revolution of said first and second helical filaments between each point of intersection.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 27 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 1 wherein there are a multiplicity of revolutions of said first and second helical filaments between each point of intersection.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 27 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 1 wherein each filament is composed of two different plastic materials characterized by having different properties of contraction and orientation.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 21 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 4 wherein the two materials are a synthetic elastomeric rubber-like material and a plastic.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 33 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 4 wherein one material is a synthetic elastomeric rubber-like material and the other is a plastic material selected from the group consisting of polypropylene and polyethylene.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 22 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 1 comprising three crossing layers, one of said layers being composed of main direction filaments.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 15 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 7 wherein said main direction filaments are helical.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 22 words
A net-like structure as recited in claim 7 wherein said main direction filaments are composed solely of a synthetic elastomeric rubber-like material.
