EMIL RATTEY, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

FLAT-WIRE NETTING.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 328,716, dated October 20, 1885.

Application filed August 29, 1885. Serial No. 175,641. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, EMIL RATTEY, of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Flat-Wire Netting, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improved flat-wire netting, which is to be used as office-railing, window-screens, and other similar purposes.

The invention consists of wire-netting made of fiat wire, as will be fully described and set forth hereinafter, and pointed out in the claims.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in both the figures. v

Figure 1 is a face view of a piece of my improved flat-wire netting. Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a part of the same at the intersection of two wires.

The netting is formed of a series of flat wires or rods, A, which are woven together in the usual manner of weaving wires or rods that is, at the intersections the Wires alternately pass over and under the rods crossing them. At the intersections each wire is bent to form a part, B, which is at right angles to the remaining part of the flat wire or rod.

The parts B are arranged a greater or less distance from each other, according to the size of the squares or fields to be formed in the netting.

When the wires are woven, the parts B rest on each other, as shown, and the parts B of different wires are at a right angle to each other, or at any other angleas, for example, when the fields in the netting are diamondshaped.

The flat wires need not be riveted or otherwise fastened at the intersections, as they are held by being interwoven. The flat Wires or rods may have any desired width and may be of any desired metal.

One of the special features of my improved flat-wire netting is the edges of the flat wires always face the observer, and the crossed flat parts B make the intersections quite conspicuous.

Having thus fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent-- 1. Wire netting composed of flat wires woven together and having the parts thereof at their intersections twisted with reference to their other parts, substantially as herein shown and described.

2. Wire netting having the planes or flat sides of the wires at right angles to the plane of the netting, substantially as herein shown and described.

3. Wire-netting formed of crossed flat wires or rods having parts B at right angles to the remaining portions at the intersections, the fiat sides of the parts B resting on each other, substantially as herein shown and described.

EMIL RATTEY.
