The wires 2B constituting the short side walls 4B are arranged in parallel at a distance of 3 cm, similarly to the state at the bottom 3 described above. As a result, the interval between the longitudinal wires 2 constituting the side wall 4 is 3 to 4 between the adjacent side walls 4.

A folded part 5 is formed at the upper end of the side wall part 4. The folded portion 5 is formed by folding each wire 2 outward from the upper end of the side wall portion 4 in the horizontal direction. As a result, the upper end portions of the four side wall portions 4 are in a state of spreading to the outer periphery.

An annular wire 6 is provided at the distal end of each wire 2 which is the outermost peripheral edge of the folded portion 5. The annular wire 6 is connected to the distal end of each wire 2 and supports the whole. That is, the wires 2A forming the long side walls 4A are supported in parallel with the spacing of 4 cm, and the wires 2B forming the short side walls 4B are supported in parallel with the spacing of 3 cm. And retain the overall shape.
