Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim
86 words
A fabric for surgical bandage or the like comprising a plurality of chains of chain stitches extending in the direction of warp and formed of nonelastic yarn, nonelastic weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in adjacent chains for at least a portion of the length of the chains at least some of which weft yarn members are water soluble whereby on dissolution or cutting of a weft yarn member and withdrawal thereof the fabric is divided in the direction of the warp.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
86 words
A fabric for surgical bandage or the like comprising a plurality of chains of chain stitches extending in the direction of warp and formed of nonelastic yarn, nonelastic weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in adjacent chains for at least a portion of the length of the chains at least some of which weft yarn members are water soluble whereby on dissolution or cutting of a weft yarn member and withdrawal thereof the fabric is divided in the direction of the warp.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
45 words
Structure as set forth in claim 1 and further including additional weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in a chain of chain stitches for at least a portion of the length of the chain which additional weft yarn members are elastic.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
Structure as set forth in claim 1 wherein the nonelastic weft yarn members extend across and through chains of chain stitches separated by at least one intermediate chain of chain stitches.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
31 words
Structure as set forth in claim 2 wherein the nonelastic weft yarn members extend across and through chains of chain stitches separated by at least one intermediate chain of chain stitches.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
28 words
Structure as set forth in claim 1 wherein at least some of the nonelastic weft yarn members are one of, cotton yarn, rayon yarn and polynosic fiber yarn.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
28 words
Structure as set forth in claim 2 wherein at least some of the nonelastic weft yarn members are one of cotton yarn, rayon yarn and polynosic fiber yarn.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
27 words
Structure as set forth in claim 2 wherein at least some of the elastic weft yarn members are one of covered yarn, core yarn, or bare yarn.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
118 words
A fabric for surgical bandage or the like comprising a plurality of chains of chain stitches extending in the direction of warp and formed of nonelastic yarn, nonelastic weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in adjacent chains for at least a portion of the length of the chains and additional weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in a chain of chain stitches for at least a portion of the length of the chain which additional weft yarn members are elastic whereby stretching of the fabric in the warp direction is permitted and on removal of a nonelastic weft yarn member the fabric is split in the direction of the warp.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
118 words
A fabric for surgical bandage or the like comprising a plurality of chains of chain stitches extending in the direction of warp and formed of nonelastic yarn, nonelastic weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in adjacent chains for at least a portion of the length of the chains and additional weft yarn members running reciprocatively across and through adjacent loops in a chain of chain stitches for at least a portion of the length of the chain which additional weft yarn members are elastic whereby stretching of the fabric in the warp direction is permitted and on removal of a nonelastic weft yarn member the fabric is split in the direction of the warp.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
28 words
Structure as set forth in claim 8, wherein at least some of the nonelastic weft yarn members are one of cotton yarn, rayon yarn and polynosic fiber yarn.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim
27 words
Structure as set forth in claim 8, wherein at least some of the elastic weft yarn membErs are one of covered yarn, core yarn, or bare yarn.
