Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 121 words
An endless loop monoplanar papermakers' fabric comprising inter-woven warp and filling yarn systems, said warp yarn system comprising warp yarns woven in a preselected conventional unbalanced papermakers' weave pattern chosen from the class consisting of a 1/2 twill, a 2/1 twill, a 1/4 twill, a 4/1 twill, a 2/3 twill, a 3/2 twill, a 1/5 twill, a 5/1 twill, a 1/4 sateen and a 4/1 sateen, combined and alternated with warp yarns woven in accordance the reverse of said preselected pattern so that each fill yarn has an equal number of warp yarns passing thereover and thereunder, whereby the forces within said fabric are balanced reducing the tendency to edge curl and said fabric is provided with an improved support surface.
