Abstract
Abstract A double-layer woven fabric comprising longitudinally extending warp wires and two layers of transversely extending weft wires, at least part of the warp wires being interwoven with weft wires of both weft layers and warp wires, separated by not more than one intermediate warp wire, extending pair-wise in parallel at least over part of their length on the paper side and/or on the running side of the fabric.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
100 words
A paper machine forming fabric comprising a double layer woven fabric, said fabric having longitudinally extending warp wires and two layers of transversely extending weft wires, at least part of the warp wires being interwoven with the weft wires of both said layers, said fabric being characterized in that said warp wires are passed pair-wise in parallel over at least two weft wires on the paper side of the fabric and in that, in the fabric interior, said warp wires of each pair extend at an angle with respect to each other, and form an opening in the transverse direction.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
100 words
A paper machine forming fabric comprising a double layer woven fabric, said fabric having longitudinally extending warp wires and two layers of transversely extending weft wires, at least part of the warp wires being interwoven with the weft wires of both said layers, said fabric being characterized in that said warp wires are passed pair-wise in parallel over at least two weft wires on the paper side of the fabric and in that, in the fabric interior, said warp wires of each pair extend at an angle with respect to each other, and form an opening in the transverse direction.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
52 words
A paper machine forming in accordance with claim 1 further characterized in that each warp wire in the top of said layers passes over two weft wires at least twice per repeat length, the first time together with the preceding warp wire and the second time together with the succeeding warp wire.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
33 words
A paper machine forming fabric in accordance with claim 1 further characterized in that two adjacent warp wires each join in the bottom of said layers in passing about two non-successive weft wires.
