Abstract

A ribbon combination for holding the ends of a plurality of laths in a grid-like arrangement comprises a row of pouches which are open to at least one side. The ribbon combination, is manufactured as a combination of ribbon parts (3 and 4) which lie essentially flat against each other which ribbon parts are joined to one another in a suitable manner. The first ribbon part (3) consists of a shrinkable material (e.g., cotton material) and the second ribbon part (4) consist of a non-shrinkable or less shrinkable material (e.g., nylon or pre-shrunken cotton material). The ribbon combination is then subjected to a shrinking process. By this, the pouches which were flat beforehand, comprise now a shrunken pouch bottom and a pouch part arching over the bottom. The ribbon combination is very easy to manufacture and comprises a constant length, independent of whether lath ends are inserted in the pouches or not. The ribbon combination can easily be stitched on to a lattice apron or a mattress cover with the shrunken ribbon part lying flat thereon.

Description

Die Erfindung liegt auf dem Gebiete der Möbelherstellung und betrifft eine Bandkombination nach dem Oberbegriff des ersten Patentanspruchs. Die Bandkombination ist ein mindestens bereichsweise doppeltes Band, das eine Reihe von mindestens auf einer Seite offenen Taschen bildet. Die Bandkombination dient insbesondere zur Positionierung von Latten in einem Lattenrost.The invention is in the field of furniture production and relates to a band combination according to the preamble of the first claim. The band combination is an at least partially double band which forms a series of pockets open at least on one side. The band combination is used in particular for positioning slats in a slatted frame.

Es ist beispielsweise aus der Publikation EP-0243383 bekannt, Lattenroste für Liege-oder Sitzflächen als von einem Gestell im wesentlichen unabhängige Einheiten zu gestalten mit Hilfe eines Lattentuches, das meist rechteckig ist und entlang von zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Kanten je eine Reihe von gegen den mittleren Bereich des Tuches offenen Taschen aufweist. Die Latten sind etwas länger als der Abstand zwischen einander gegenüberliegenden Taschen und die Enden jeder Latte werden in zwei einander gegenüberliegende Taschen gesteckt. Das Lattentuch wird durch die Latten gespannt und hält dadurch die Latten in einer parallelen Position fest. Ein derartiger aus Latten und Lattentuch bestehender Lattenrost stellt eine stabile Einheit dar, die quer zur Lattenausrichtung flexibel und dadurch aufrollbar ist.It is known, for example from the publication EP-0243383, to design slatted bases for reclining or sitting surfaces as units essentially independent of one another with the aid of a slatted cloth, which is usually rectangular and along two opposite edges, one row each against the middle one Area of the cloth has open pockets. The slats are slightly longer than the distance between opposing pockets and the ends of each slat are inserted into two opposing pockets. The batten is stretched by the slats, thereby holding the slats in a parallel position. Such an existing slats and batten slatted is a stable unit that is flexible and thereby rolled up across the slats alignment.

Lattenroste der genannten Art werden üblicherweise zusammen mit quer zur Lattenausrichtung positionierten, elastisch federnden Längsholmen verwendet, die zwischen einer Auflage (Bettgestell oder Boden) und dem Lattenrost positioniert werden, wodurch eine federnde Liege- oder Sitzfläche entsteht. Die Längsholmen können dabei direkt am Lattentuch befestigt sein. Das Lattentuch kann auch ein Teil einer Matratzenumhüllung sein, so dass Matratze, Lattenrost und gegebenenfalls Längsholmen zu einer Einheit werden (z.B. offenbart in WO-99/35940).Slatted bases of the type mentioned are usually used together with transversely positioned to the slat alignment, elastically resilient longitudinal beams, which are positioned between a support (bed frame or floor) and the slatted frame, whereby a resilient reclining or seating surface is created. The longitudinal beams can be attached directly to the battens. The battens may also be part of a mattress cover so that mattress, slatted frame and optionally longitudinal spars become one unit (eg disclosed in WO-99/35940).

Zur Herstellung eines Lattentuches ist es am einfachsten, zwei einander gegenüberliegende Randbereiche eines rechteckigen Tuches umzufalten und die umgefalteten Randbereiche zu gegen die Tuchmitte offenen Taschen abzusteppen. Derartige Lattentücher sind zwar relativ einfach herzustellen, haben aber einen Nachteil. Wenn die Latten in die Taschen gesteckt werden, verkürzen sich die Taschenreihen gegenüber dem mittleren Tuchbereich, so dass das Tuch dann nicht mehr flach ausgelegt werden kann. Dies sieht insbesondere dann nicht befriedigend aus, wenn das Tuch ein Teil einer Matratzenumhüllung ist, die man gerne straff hätte. Der Nachteil hat auch eine ökonomische Seite, denn das Tuch muss länger geschnitten werden als es wirklich sein muss. Denselben Nachteil haben auch Bänder, die zur Bildung der Taschen flach auf ein Lattentuch aufgenäht werden.To produce a batten, it is easiest to fold over two opposing edge regions of a rectangular cloth and abzuzusteppen the folded edge regions to open towards the cloth center pockets. Although such battens are relatively easy to produce, but have a drawback. When the slats are placed in the pockets, the rows of pockets shorten in relation to the middle area of the cloth so that the cloth can no longer be laid flat. This does not look satisfactory, in particular, if the cloth is part of a mattress cover which one would like to be taut. The disadvantage also has an economic side, because the cloth has to be cut longer than it really has to be. The same disadvantage also bands have to be sewn flat on a bat to form the bags.

Dem genannten Nachteilen wird gemäss dem Stande der Technik begegnet, indem die Taschenreihen durch Aufnähen von Taschenbändern erstellt werden, wobei die Taschenbänder entweder etwas länger sind als das Lattentuch und entsprechend aufgenäht werden oder wobei die Taschenbänder mindestens teilweise elastisch dehnbar sind.The disadvantages mentioned are met according to the prior art by the rows of pockets are created by sewing of straps, the straps are either slightly longer than the battens and are sewn accordingly or wherein the straps are at least partially elastically stretchable.

Es werden also einfache, nicht wesentlich dehnbare Bänder nicht flach auf das Lattentuch aufgenäht, sondern derart, dass sie dreidimensionale Taschen bilden, oder es werden doppelte Bänder, die flache Taschen bilden oder mindestes Öffnungen (Knopflochbänder) aufweisen etwas gestaucht auf dem Lattentuch aufgenäht. In beiden Fällen ist die Näharbeit zur Verbindung der nicht flach aufeinanderliegenden Teile aufwendig. Andererseits werden die Bänder ganz oder teilweise aus einem elastisch dehnbaren Material hergestellt und flach aufgenäht. Das dehnbare Material soll dann durch die in den Taschen eingesteckten Lattenenden derart gedehnt werden, dass die Lattendicke kompensiert wird. In der Publikation WO-96/28072 werden beispielsweise doppelte Taschenbänder beschrieben deren Taschen je einen nicht dehnbaren und einen dehnbaren Teil aufweisen. Mit derartigen Bändern kann erreicht werden, dass das Lattentuch auch flach liegt, wenn die Latten in die Taschen eingesteckt sind, allerdings aber nur dann, wenn die Lattenposition sehr exakt so ist, dass die Latten mit nur einer Breitseite auf dem nicht dehnbaren Taschenteil aufliegen und der dehnbare Taschenteil sich um die zweite Breitseite und die beiden Schmalseiten legt. Es zeigt sich, dass eine derartige Position der Lattenenden in den Taschen zwar erstellbar aber bedingt durch die Zugkraft des elastisch gedehnten Materials nicht stabil ist, so dass mindestens beim Gebrauch des Lattenrostes doch eine Verkürzung der Taschenreihe gegenüber dem mittleren Teil des Lattentuches auftritt. Dasselbe gilt auch für einfache, elastisch dehnbare Bäder, die zur Bildung von Taschen direkt auf das Lattentuch aufgenäht werden.Thus, simple, not substantially extensible tapes are not sewn flat on the mat, but in such a way that they form three-dimensional pockets or double tapes forming flat pockets or having at least openings (buttonhole tapes) are somewhat stitched on the mat. In both cases, the sewing work for joining is not flat superimposed Parts consuming. On the other hand, the bands are wholly or partly made of an elastically stretchable material and sewn flat. The stretchable material should then be stretched by the inserted into the pockets lath ends so that the lath thickness is compensated. In the publication WO-96/28072, for example, double pocket straps are described whose pockets each have a non-stretchable and a stretchable part. With such bands can be achieved that the batten is also flat when the slats are inserted into the pockets, but only if the slat position is very accurate so that the slats rest with only one broad side of the non-stretchable pocket part and the stretchable pocket part lays around the second broad side and the two narrow sides. It can be seen that such a position of the bar ends in the pockets is creatable but not stable due to the tensile force of the elastically stretched material, so that at least when using the slatted frame but a shortening of the row of pockets opposite the middle part of the batten occurs. The same applies to simple, elastically extensible baths, which are sewn on the battens to form pockets.

Die Erfindung stellt sich nun die Aufgabe, eine Bandkombination zu schaffen, die wie die genannten mindestens teilweise elastisch dehnbaren Taschenbänder flach auf einem Lattentuch aufgenäht werden kann, die aber mit und ohne eingesteckte Latten sowie auch im Betrieb eine unveränderte Länge hat, wie dies undehnbare, entsprechend eben nicht flach aufgenähte Bänder tun. Trotzdem soll die erfindungsgemässe Bandkombination einfach herzustellen sein.The invention now has the task of creating a band combination, which can be sewn flat on a bat, like the said at least partially elastically extensible straps, but with and without inserted slats and also in operation has an unchanged length, as inextensible, according to just not flat sewed tapes do. Nevertheless, the band combination according to the invention should be easy to produce.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Bandkombination, wie sie in den Patentansprüchen definiert ist.This object is achieved by the band combination as defined in the claims.

Die erfindungsgemässe Bandkombination wird in Form von zwei im wesentlichen flach aufeinanderliegenden Bandteilen hergestellt, wobei die beiden Bandteile derart miteinander verbunden werden, dass sie eine Reihe von mindestens auf einer Seite offenen, aber flachen Taschen bilden. Dabei besteht der erste Bandteil aus einem mindestens in Richtung der Bandlänge schrumpfbaren Material und der zweite Bandteil aus einem nicht oder weniger schrumpfbaren Material. Diese Bandkombination mit den flachen Taschen wird schrumpfenden Bedingungen ausgesetzt, wodurch sich der erste, schrumpfbare Bandteil verkürzt und der zweite Bandteil seine ursprüngliche Länge beibehält oder sich mindestens bedeutend weniger verkürzt, so dass die ursprünglich flachen Taschen einen durch Schrumpfung verkürzten Taschenboden und einen im wesentlichen ungeschrumpften, sich über dem Taschenboden wölbenden Taschenteil aufweisen.The band combination according to the invention is produced in the form of two band members lying essentially flat on one another, the two band members being connected to each other in such a way that they form a row of pockets which are open at least on one side but flat. In this case, the first band part consists of a material which is shrinkable at least in the direction of the band length and the second band part consists of a material which can not or is not shrinkable. This ribbon combination with the flat pockets is subjected to shrinking conditions whereby the first shrinkable band portion shortens and the second band portion retains its original length or shortens at least significantly less so that the originally flat pockets have a pocket bottom shortened by shrinkage and a substantially unshrunk band , Have over the bottom of the bag bulging pocket part.

Für die Anwendung in Lattenrosten sind die Materialien der beiden Bandteile derart zu wählen, dass nach der Schrumpfung die Länge des ersten Bandteils etwa 95% der Länge des zweiten Bandteils beträgt.For use in slatted frames, the materials of the two hinge parts are to be chosen such that after shrinkage, the length of the first hinge part is about 95% of the length of the second hinge part.

Die Schrumpfbarkeit von textilen Materialien ist in der Textilbranche bekannt. Der Fachmann kann also zur Herstellung der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination ohne Schwierigkeiten zwei Bandmaterialien derart kombinieren, dass deren Ausdehnung in Bandlänge nach einem entsprechend eingerichteten Schrumpfungsverfahren sich wie beispielsweise 95:100 verhalten. Die Schrumpfeigenschaften von Baumwolle sind beispielsweise in bekannter Weise abhängig von der Fadenqualität, von der Temperatur, die bei einer für die Schrumpfung vorgenommenen Waschung angewendet wird, und von der Spannung, unter der das Material nach der Waschung getrocknet wird. Viele Kunstfasermaterialien, wie beispielsweise Nylon, schrumpfen nicht, wenn sie den für Baumwolle geeigneten Schrumpfbedingungen ausgesetzt werden.The shrinkability of textile materials is known in the textile industry. The person skilled in the art can therefore easily combine two strip materials in such a way that their strip length expansion follows a suitably established shrinkage method such as 95: 100, for example, to produce the band combination according to the invention. The shrinkage properties of cotton are, for example, in a known manner depending on the quality of the thread, on the temperature applied in a washing performed for the shrinkage, and on the tension at which the material is dried after the washing. Many synthetic fiber materials, such as nylon, do not shrink when exposed to cotton shrinkage conditions.

Die erfindungsgemässe Bandkombination weist also beispielsweise einen ersten Bandteil auf, der im wesentlichen aus Baumwolle besteht, und einen zweiten Bandteil, der im wesentlichen aus Nylon besteht, wobei die beiden Bandteile vor der Schrumpfung im wesentlichen flach aneinander liegen. Nach der Schrumpfung bildet der baumwollene Bandteil die geschrumpften Taschenböden und der Bandteil aus Nylon die sich über die Taschenböden wölbenden Taschenteile.Thus, for example, the band combination according to the invention comprises a first band part consisting essentially of cotton and a second band part consisting essentially of nylon, the two band parts lying substantially flat against each other before shrinkage. After shrinking, the cotton band part forms the shrunken bag bottoms, and the nylon band piece puffs over the bag bottoms.

Derselbe Effekt wird erzielt durch eine Kombination von zwei Bandteilen, die beide aus Baumwolle bestehen, von denen aber der eine in einem geschrumpften und der zweite in einem noch schrumpfbaren Zustand ist. Die Bandkombination wird flach hergestellt und dann einem Schrumpfprozess unterzogen, wobei der bereits geschrumpfte Bandteil seine ursprüngliche Länge im wesentlichen beibehält und der schrumpfbare Bandteil verkürzt wird.The same effect is achieved by a combination of two band parts, both made of cotton, but one of which is in a shrunken and the second in a still shrinkable state. The band combination is made flat and then subjected to a shrinking process, wherein the already shrunk band portion substantially retains its original length and the shrinkable band portion is shortened.

Zwei beispielhafte Ausführungsformen der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination werden im Zusammenhang mit den folgenden Figuren im Detail beschrieben. Dabei zeigen:

Figur 1
eine erste, beispielhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination in einer dreidimensionalen Darstellung;
Figur 2
die Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination gemäss Figur 1 mit eingesteckten Latten, im Schnitt parallel zur Bandlänge;
Figur 3
eine zweite, beispielhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination.
Two exemplary embodiments of the band combination according to the invention will be described in detail in connection with the following figures. Showing:
FIG. 1
a first exemplary embodiment of the inventive band combination in a three-dimensional representation;
FIG. 2
the embodiment of the inventive band combination according to Figure 1 with inserted slats, in section parallel to the strip length;
FIG. 3
a second exemplary embodiment of the inventive band combination.

Figur 1 zeigt eine erste, beispielhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination. Diese weist über ihre Länge alternierend, doppelte Bereiche 1 und einfache Bereiche 2 auf, wobei in den doppelten Bereichen 1 der erste Bandteil 3 und der zweite Bandteil 4 voneinander getrennt und in den einfachen Bereichen 2 die beiden Bandteile 3 und 4 ineinander integriert sind. Derartige Bänder mit alternierenden doppelten und einfachen Bereichen 1 und 2 sind aus der Bandweberei-Technik an sich bekannt. Sie werden beispielsweise wie folgt hergestellt: Für die einfachen Bandbereiche 2 werden zwei Schussfäden alternierend oder gemeinsam durch eine Lage von Kettfäden geschossen. Für die doppelten Bereiche 1 werden die Kettfäden für das Weben der beiden Bandteile in zwei Lagen aufgetrennt, derart, dass sie beispielsweise alternierend dem einen und dem anderen Bandteil 3 und 4 zugeordnet werden und von den beiden Schussfäden wird der eine durch die eine Lage von Kettfäden und der zweite durch die andere Lage von Kettfäden geschossen. FIG. 1 shows a first, exemplary embodiment of the band combination according to the invention. This has over its length alternately, double areas 1 and 2 simple areas, wherein in the double areas 1 of the first band part 3 and the second band part 4 separated from each other and in the simple areas 2, the two band parts 3 and 4 are integrated with each other. Such bands with alternating double and simple regions 1 and 2 are known per se from the ribbon weaving technique. They are produced, for example, as follows: For the simple belt sections 2, two weft threads are shot alternately or together through a layer of warp threads. For the double areas 1, the warp threads for weaving the two strip parts are separated into two layers, such that they are assigned, for example, alternately one and the other band part 3 and 4 and of the two weft threads is the one by the one layer of warp threads and the second shot through the other layer of warp threads.

Die Kettfäden, die für das Weben der doppelten Bandteile dem in der Figur unteren, ersten Bandteil 3, der nach dem Schrumpfen die Taschenböden bildet, zugeordnet werden, bestehen aus dem schrumpfbaren Material (z.B. Baumwolle), die Kettfäden, die dem in der Figur oberen, zweiten Bandteil 4, der nach dem Schrumpfen die sich über die Taschenböden wölbenden Taschenteile bildet, zugeordnet werden bestehen aus dem nicht schrumpfbaren Material (z.B. Nylon). Die Schrumpfbarkeit des Materials der Schussfäden ist wenig relevant. Die Schussfäden bestehen beispielsweise auch aus Baumwolle.The warp threads, which are assigned to the weaving of the double strip parts in the figure lower, first band part 3, which forms the pocket bottoms after shrinking, consist of the shrinkable material (eg cotton), the warp threads, the upper in the figure , second band part 4, which forms after shrinking which forms over the bag bottoms pocket parts, are made of the non-shrinkable material (eg nylon). The shrinkability of the material of the weft threads is of little relevance. The weft threads are made of cotton, for example.

Die Länge der fertigen Bandkombination, wie sie in der Figur 1 dargestellt ist, ist definiert durch die Länge der geschrumpften Kettfäden. Die Länge der sich über die geschrumpften Taschenböden wölbenden Bandteile 4 durch das Schrumpfungsverhältnis zwischen erstem und zweitem Bandteil (3 und 4).The length of the finished band combination, as shown in Figure 1, is defined by the length of the shrunken warp threads. The length of the belt parts 4 bulging over the shrunken bag bottoms by the shrinkage ratio between the first and second belt parts (3 and 4).

Figur 2 zeigt die Bandkombination gemäss Figur 1 mit eingesteckten Latten 6 im Schnitt parallel zur Länge der Bandkombination. Aus dieser Figur ist ersichtlich, dass bei einer guten Abstimmung der Abmessung der doppelten Bandbereiche 1 und des Schrumpfungsverhältnisses zwischen erstem und zweitem Bandteil 3 und 4 auf die Lattenquerschnitte ein Taschenband erstellbar ist, in dessen Taschen die Lattenenden durch Reibung leicht gehalten werden, dessen Länge sich aber durch das Einstecken der Latten nicht ändert. Figure 2 shows the band combination according to Figure 1 with inserted slats 6 in section parallel to the length of the band combination. From this figure it can be seen that with a good coordination of the dimension of the double band areas 1 and the shrinkage ratio between the first and second band part 3 and 4 on the slat cross sections a pocket band can be created, in the pockets of the slat ends are easily held by friction whose length is but by inserting the slats does not change.

Figur 3 zeigt eine zweite, beispielhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemässen Bandkombination. Die beiden Bandteile 3 und 4 dieser Bandkombination sind zwei voneinander unabhängig hergestellt Bänder, die flach aufeinandergelegt durch eine Steppung 12 derart miteinander verbunden sind, dass sie zuerst flache, beispielsweise gegen eine Seite offene Taschen bilden. Die beiden Bandteile 3 und 4 sind wiederum aus zwei verschieden schrumpfbaren Materialien hergestellt, so dass die Bandkombination bzw. deren Taschen nach einem Schrumpfungsverfahren die in der Figur 3 dargestellte Form haben. FIG. 3 shows a second, exemplary embodiment of the band combination according to the invention. The two band parts 3 and 4 of this band combination are two bands produced independently of each other, which are flatly connected to one another by a stitching 12 such that they first form flat, for example open against one side pockets. The two band parts 3 and 4 are in turn made of two different shrinkable materials, so that the band combination or their pockets have the shape shown in Figure 3 after a shrinkage process.

Für die Herstellung der Bandkombination, wie sie in der Figur 3 dargestellt ist, eignet sich insbesondere die Verwendung eines vorgeschrumpften, also nicht mehr wesentlich schrumpfbaren Baumwollbandes für den Bandteil 4 und eines noch schrumpfbaren Baumwollbandes für den Bandteil 3.For the production of the band combination, as shown in Figure 3, in particular the use of a pre-shrunk, so no longer substantially shrinkable cotton band for the band part 4 and a still shrinkable cotton band for the band part 3rd

Vorteilhafterweise ist der zweite, nicht geschrumpfte Bandteil 4 etwas schmaler als der erste, geschrumpfte Bandteil 3, derart, dass der erste Bandteil 3 den zweiten Bandteil 4 auf beiden Seiten überragt. Entlang dieser überragenden Bereiche 13 und 14 kann die Bandkombination in einer Steppung 15 flach auf einem Lattentuch aufliegend auf dieses aufgenäht werden.Advantageously, the second, non-shrunk band part 4 is slightly narrower than the first, shrunken band part 3, such that the first band part 3 projects beyond the second band part 4 on both sides. Along these protruding areas 13 and 14, the band combination in a stitching 15 flat on a battens lying on this can be sewn.

Eine Bandkombination aus zwei Bandteilen 3 und 4, die nicht gleich breit sind, lässt sich auch durch Weben, das heisst, ohne Zusammennähen der Bandteile, direkt erstellen, wie das im Prinzip für die in der Figur 1 dargestellte Bandkombination beschrieben ist. Für diesen Webprozess werden schrumpfbare Kettfäden auf einer grösseren Web-Breite vorgesehen als nicht schrumpfbare Kettfäden und wird der den schrumpfbaren Kettfäden zugeordnete Schussfaden über die ganze Breite verwoben, während der den nicht schrumpfbaren Kettfäden zugeordnete Schussfaden nur über einen Teil der Breite verwoben wird. Sollen die Taschen auch einseitig geschlossen sein, wie dies in der Figur 3 dargestellt ist, wird der Schussfaden, der den nicht schrumpfbaren Kettfäden zugeordnet ist, entlang der zu schliessenden Taschenseite über eine kleine Teilbreite über die ganze Bandlänge mit schrumpfbaren und nicht schrumpfbaren Kettfäden verwoben.A band combination of two band parts 3 and 4, which are not the same width, can also be created directly by weaving, that is, without sewing the band parts together, as described in principle for the band combination shown in FIG. For this weaving process, shrinkable warp yarns are provided on a larger weaving width than non-shrinkable warp yarns, and the weft yarn associated with the shrinkable warp yarns is interwoven throughout the width, while the weft yarn associated with the non-shrinkable warp yarns is woven only over a portion of the width. If the pockets are also to be closed on one side, as shown in FIG. 3, the weft thread, which is associated with the non-shrinkable warp threads, is woven along the pocket side to be closed over a small part width over the entire strip length with shrinkable and non-shrinkable warp threads.

Claims (14)

  1. A ribbon combination with a first ribbon part (3) and a second ribbon part (4) lying substantially against each other and being joined to one another in such a manner, that together they form a row of pouches being open at least on one side, the row extending over the length of the ribbon combination, characterized in that the first ribbon part (3) is shortened through shrinkage relative to the second ribbon part (4), so that the first ribbon part (3) forms a pouch bottom in every pouch and the second ribbon part (4) arches over the pouch bottom.
  2. A ribbon combination in accordance with claim 1, characterized in that the first ribbon part (3) consists at least partially of a material which has been shrunk under predefined conditions and the second ribbon part (4) consists at least partially of a material, which under the predefined conditions is either non-shrinkable or else less shrinkable than the material of the first ribbon part.
  3. A ribbon combination according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the first ribbon part (3) consists at least partially of shrinkable cotton material and the second ribbon part (4) consists at least partially of a non-shrinkable or less shrinkable synthetic fabric.

A ribbon combination according to one of claims 2 to 4, characterized in that the two ribbon parts (3 and 4) are woven with warp threads and weft threads and that the warp threads of the first ribbon part (3) consist of a shrinkable material and the warp threads of the second ribbon part (4) consist of the non-shrinkable or less shrinkable material.
  6. A ribbon combination in accordance with claim 5, characterized in that the warp threads of the first ribbon part (3) consist of cotton material and the warp threads of the second ribbon part (4) consist of nylon material.
  7. A ribbon combination according to one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that it is manufactured in a single weaving process and that it comprises alternating over its length single-layer sectors (2) and double-layer sectors (1), wherein in the single-layer sectors the two ribbon parts (3 and 4) are integrated in each other and in the double-layer sectors (1) the two ribbon parts are separate from one another.
  8. A ribbon combination in accordance with one of claims 1 to 6, characterized in that the two ribbon parts (3 and 4) are two ribbons having been manufactured independently of one another and being stitched together to form the row of pouches.
  9. A ribbon combination according to one of claims 1 to 8, characterized in that the second ribbon part (4) is narrower than the first ribbon part (3).
  10. Use of a ribbon combination in accordance with one of claims 1 to 9 for fixing laths in a grid-like arrangement.
  11. Process for manufacturing a ribbon combination comprising a first ribbon part (3) and a second ribbon part (4), the two ribbon parts lying against each other and being joined together to form a row of pouches open at least on one side, the row of pouches extending over the length of the ribbon combination, characterized in that the first ribbon part (3) which consists at least partially of a material being shrinkable under predefined conditions and the second ribbon part (4) which consists at least partially of a material being non-shrinkable or less shrinkable than the material of the first ribbon part under the predefined conditions are positioned flat against each other and are joined to one another to form a row of pouches being open at least on one side, and that the two joined ribbon parts (3 and 4) are subjected to the predefined conditions.
  12. Process in accordance with claim 11, characterized in that the two ribbon parts (3 and 4) are manufactured and joined to one another in a single weaving process.
  13. Process according to claim 11, characterized in that the ribbon parts (3 and 4) are woven separately and are then stitched together.
  14. Process in accordance with one of claims 11 to 13, characterized in that the first ribbon part (3) consists at least partially of cotton material and that, for the shrinking process, the ribbon combination is washed at a predefined temperature and thereupon is dried under tension.
