Abstract
This invention relates to a paper machine mesh, in particular a forming mesh, including an upper fabric layer, whose outer side forms a paper side, and a lower fabric layer, whose outer side forms a machine side of the paper machine mesh, and tie threads extending in the longitudinal thread direction, which connect the upper fabric layer and the lower fabric layer to each other, wherein the upper fabric layer is formed at least by the tie threads and, woven therewith, upper transverse threads extending transverse to the tie threads, wherein the lower fabric layer is formed at least by the tie threads and, woven therewith, lower transverse threads extending transverse to the tie threads, wherein each lower transverse thread is held respectively by several tie threads in that each of these tie threads continually crosses the respective lower transverse thread on the outer side of the lower fabric layer, and wherein at least some of the tie threads holding a respective lower transverse thread are separated from each other by at least one tie thread not holding the lower transverse thread in that the lower transverse thread continually crosses the non-holding tie thread on the outer side of the lower fabric layer. The mesh also includes several lower transverse threads for which an identical number of non-holding tie threads is always arranged respectively between consecutive tie threads respectively holding the lower transverse thread.
