Abstract
This is a decorative linkwork or mesh of interlinked parts which form a sheet for use as a decorative fabric. The linkwork is formed of small overlapping plates and interconnecting rings. Each plate has four outwardly extending arms which are formed into U-shaped hooks for engaging a respective connecting ring. At least one of the outwardly extending arms is relatively longer than the others and has a predetermined portion of its length folded back flat against the plate, resulting in a spacing between the edge of the plate and the beginning of the U-shaped hook formation of that arm.
Claims4
Decorative linkwork or mesh sheet formed of plates having outwardly extending arms, each of said outwardly extending arms being formed into U-shaped hook formations with the inner end of each arm extending inwardly of the outer edges of the plate, a separate interconnecting ring means engaging each of the U-shaped hook configurations of the arms of each of said plates, at least one of said outwardly extending arms being folded back inwardly from the edge of the plate and in contiguous contact with the rear surface of the plate for a predetermined length to form a spacing between the edge of the plate and the hook configuration of the respective arm, in order to permit an overlapping relationship of adjacent plates.
