Patent number: 10208409Abstract: A knitted netting for wrapping an object is provided. When wrapping the object the knitted netting may have an indicated target elongation. The knitted netting includes first longitudinal franzes, first lateral schusses, at least two second longitudinal franzes, and at least one second lateral schuss. The schusses are knitted with the franzes to form the knitted netting. The first longitudinal franzes and the first lateral schusses are configured such that the spacing of the first longitudinal franzes decreases by less than 10% when elongating the knitted netting by 50% of the target elongation, the target elongation being from 15% to 300% of the length of the knitted netting. The second lateral schuss is an indicator schuss. The second longitudinal franzes are indicator franzes. The indicator schuss is knitted with the indicator franzes to form an elongation indicator for indicating the amount of longitudinal stretching of the knitted netting.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2017Date of Patent: February 19, 2019Assignee: TAMA PLASTIC INDUSTRYInventors: Yuval Lieber, Yair Efrati

Publication number: 20150259116Abstract: A wrap for wrapping around a content includes: an elongated net to wrap around a central region of the content; and two shoulder-creating net-portions, attached to two opposing edges of the elongated net. A method of packaging a content includes: wrapping a first elongated net around a central region of the content, wherein the wrapping causes the central region of the content to compress, and wherein the wrapping of the central region maintains two opposing edges of the content non-wrapped and non-compressed; and wrapping a second elongated net around the content, wherein the second elongated net is wider than the first elongated net; and wherein the wrapping of the second elongated net covers both the central region and the two opposing edges of the content.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2014Publication date: September 17, 2015Inventors: Hagai PAZ, Yair EFRATI, Yuval LIEBER, Yair ARZI, Dennis ANSTEY

Publication number: 20100088859Abstract: A wrapping material for wrapping an item about its circumference having a plurality of wrapping portions forming a continuous roll. Each wrapping portion has a length that is greater than the circumference of an item to be wrapped with a width that is transverse to its length. Each of the wrapping portions include at least one fastener secured in an area there such that the continuous roll includes a plurality of serially disposed fasteners that are spaced from one another along the continuous roll. Each fastener includes a plurality of engaging elements for engaging a plurality of fiber elements of an underlying or overlying segment of a respective wrapping portion during a wrapping cycle. With this arrangement, the tail end of a respective wrapping portion will be secured by the plurality of engaging elements to the underlying or overlying segment at the end of a wrapping cycle.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 11, 2009Publication date: April 15, 2010Applicant: Tama Plastic IndustryInventors: Daniel Eric Derscheid, Hagai Paz, Yair Efrati, Henry Dennis Anstey

Patent number: 7541080Abstract: Method and material for wrapping items using a wrapping material made up of separate wrapping portions of a predetermined length. The wrapping portions are attached and released at their ends using a Z-lock system including a discrete laminate. The discrete laminate of the Z-lock system holds the wrapping portions together during manufacturing but can also easily release or separate the wrapping portions at a desired point in the wrapping process. The separating of the wrapping portions exposes an adhesive that is use to securely bond at least one wrapping portion to the item being wrapped at the end of a wrapping cycle.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2004Date of Patent: June 2, 2009Assignee: Tama Plastic IndustryInventors: Nissim Mass, Tsafrir Lior, Yair Efrati, Ilan Asis, Hagai Paz
