Definitions
- the invention relates to a volleyball net, tennis net, goal net or safety net according to the preamble of claim 1, and a method for its production.
- advertising space which are in the field of view of the audience, play a significant role, since not only the spectators in a sports arena can be addressed with the advertising, but, especially at high-class sporting events, a much wider audience is addressed with television broadcasts or television recordings.
- the tennis nets in the area of the posts are provided with advertising imprints.
- the nets which are usually made of textile threads, which are knotted together into stitches, covered with a stencil and sprayed with paint.
- Training devices such as goal or training walls which have a frame in which an elastomeric film is clamped.
- This film is so elastic that a ball or puck striking the film rebounds due to the elastic properties of the film.
- the film may be provided with holes, wherein the ratio of the open area of the film to its total area may be 10% to 75%, preferably 20% to 55%.
- the film has no mesh structure.
- a ball net, in particular goal net for football goals, or a separation net for separating a playing field from the spectators known are introduced into the films as advertising space, which can be provided with holes, so that a wind permeability is ensured.
- the film itself does not serve as a network, but merely as an advertising medium. It is not only relatively complicated to bring such advertising films in a network and secure it in, but also also disadvantageous that the network through the introduced film has an irregular structure and rigidity, depending on whether the mesh of the network with the advertising film are provided or not.
- a reticulated hole structure which provided on one side with information and the other side is made black, from the near a view through the reticulated structure from the black side should be easily possible, while from the other side in particular From a distance a view should not be possible.
- This net-like structure has openings in the order of 0.5 to 1 mm 2 .
- the invention has the object to provide a network and a method for its production, in which a simple application of advertising or other information is possible.
- An essential idea of the invention is that the net material no longer consists of ropes or threads, which are knotted together into stitches, but from a flat, in particular full-surface foil, are taken out of the holes, so that a mesh structure of a plurality interconnected Webs remains.
- Another possibility of applying advertising is to coat the film with an information-carrying adhesive film before the holes are introduced into the composite of film and adhesive film.
- Another particular advantage of the invention is that the thickness of the film and thus the thickness of the remaining webs with sufficiently strong film material is less than the thickness of conventional networks of textile threads or ropes, so that the opening of the mesh for a in the acute angle to the grid viewer is greater than in conventional networks.
- This is particularly advantageous in volleyball and beach volleyball networks, since it is important in these sports for the referees to be able to observe the other side of the field at an acute angle through the network.
- the holes may have any desired shape. Similar to conventional nets, a square shape of the holes may be used, and the corners of the holes may be rounded to improve the flow of forces through the mesh bars and increased tear strength.
- the area ratio of holes to mesh film is preferably 3: 1 or more, more preferably 4: 1 or more.
- Essential criteria by which the area ratio can be determined are, for example, the transparency of the network necessary for the respective field of application, the forces acting on and absorbed by the network and the area required for an optimal representation of the information.
- the webs extending between the holes of the mesh film are different in width.
- horizontally extending webs can be made wide with respect to the vertically extending webs at substantially absorbed in the transverse direction tensile forces, the vertical webs essentially have the task to keep the horizontal webs at a uniform distance from each other.
- fastening means such as eyelets
- the nets are preferably provided on the nets according to the invention, by means of which the nets can be tensioned.
- at least one loop extending at least partially along one of the side edges of the film is provided, through which ropes can be passed for fastening or tensioning purposes.
- a plurality of juxtaposed loops be disposed on one or more sides of the foil, as well as - depending on the nature and function of the net - a loop extending along at least 90% of the length of a side edge may be preferred.
- the loops can be produced, for example, by folding the respective side regions of the film, in which case the framel edges of the folded film part can be welded or squeezed or optionally even sewn together with the remainder of the film.
- fastening means are eyelets, which may alternatively or in addition to the loops in one or more edge regions of the film, in particular in its corners can be arranged.
- the films may preferably be plastic films, in particular polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide and / or PVC-containing plastic films. Also have slides with a textile structure whose fibers are glued or welded together, proved to be advantageous.
- the film material used is transparent or semitransparent.
- the film is printed on one side or on both sides before the holes are introduced into the film.
- Simple ways to introduce the holes in the film are in the punching, welding out, cutting or Schneidplotten the holes.
- the cutting or Schneidplotten the holes can be done with conventional knives, but also with a jet of water under high pressure, optionally with a laser cutting process, the latter may be necessary to ensure that the strength and / or the elasticity properties of the film on the Cutting edge due to the thermal conditions not or not significantly worsen.
- the pattern in cutting processes in which the pattern can be electronically controlled or regulated, it makes sense to adapt the shape, size and arrangement of the holes in the film to a print.
- a regular symmetrical arrangement and shape of the holes is not mandatory, so that there is the possibility, by an appropriate arrangement and shaping of the holes to highlight the information applied to a film more clearly, for example by holes are arranged along a writing edge along instead of overlapping a cut edge and thus disturbing the contour of the font.
- the shape, size and arrangement of the holes in the film can also be adapted to the expected course of forces within the network and possibly vary over the total area of the network.
- one or more side edges may be reinforced by folding or wrapping and gluing, sewing or welding.
- a reinforcement of the side edges by a thermal shaping is possible. It may also be an advantage if a rope, in particular a pull rope is wrapped or folded in the side edge, since so a tedious pulling the rope through a loop provided for this purpose is eliminated and the rope is more firmly connected to the edge of the network.
- FIGS. 1 to 5 The individual production steps of a network according to the invention can be seen.
- a film 1 is provided in the dimensions required for the network ( FIG. 1 ) and printed with an information 2 partially or completely ( FIG. 2 ).
- its side edges can be folded over or wrapped as needed, for example to reinforce the side edges 3, or to provide loops 4 through which, for example, cables for fastening the net can be pulled through ( FIG. 3 ).
- eyelets 5 can be introduced, through which cables for tensioning the net can be pulled ( FIG. 4 ).
- the net is provided with holes 6, for example by mechanical punching or cutting or thermal welding out. Only then does the network get its mesh structure ( FIG. 5 ).
- a typical mesh structure has stitches with side edges in the length of 50 mm and holes with a side length of 45 mm, in the width of the webs therefore 5 mm.
- the holes are arranged so that they do not interfere with the imprint.
- no mesh holes 6 are provided in the corners of the net in which eyelets are provided, so that the film 1 is not weakened by mesh holes in this area.
- FIG. 6 shows the upper part of the in the FIGS. 3 to 5 shown network in cross-section with the looped to a loop 4 upper side edge of the film 1, through which a cable 7 is guided.
- any other order is possible as long as the holes are inserted into the film after printing.
- printing is possible as long as the remaining mesh structure is sufficiently stiff so that the net retains its shape when printed.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Volleyballnetz, Tennisnetz, Tornetz oder Sportschutznetz gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, sowie ein Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung.The invention relates to a volleyball net, tennis net, goal net or safety net according to the preamble of
In der heutigen Zeit werden Sportveranstaltungen immer häufiger und intensiver für die Werbung genutzt. Dabei spielen Werbeflächen, die im Blickfeld der Zuschauer sind, eine erhebliche Rolle, da nicht nur die Zuschauer in einer Sportarena mit der Werbung angesprochen werden können, sondern, insbesondere bei hochklassigen Sportveranstaltungen, ein wesentlich breiteres Publikum mit Fernsehübertragungen oder Fernsehaufzeichnungen angesprochen wird. Es werden nicht nur Banden am Spielfeldrand von beispielsweise Fußballfeldern als Werbeflächen genutzt, sondern vielfach auch großflächige Netze, wie sie beispielsweise bei Sportarten wie Volleyball, Tennis oder Fußball verwendet werden. So werden bei diversen Tennisturnieren die Tennisnetze im Bereich der Pfosten mit Werbeaufdrucken versehen. Hierzu werden die Netze, die üblicherweise aus Textilfäden bestehen, die zu Maschen zusammengeknotet sind, mit einer Schablone belegt und mit Lack besprüht.At the present time, sports events are being used more and more frequently for advertising. In this case, advertising space, which are in the field of view of the audience, play a significant role, since not only the spectators in a sports arena can be addressed with the advertising, but, especially at high-class sporting events, a much wider audience is addressed with television broadcasts or television recordings. It not only gangs on the sidelines of football fields, for example, are used as advertising space, but often also large-scale networks, such as those used in sports such as volleyball, tennis or football. For example, at various tennis tournaments the tennis nets in the area of the posts are provided with advertising imprints. For this purpose, the nets, which are usually made of textile threads, which are knotted together into stitches, covered with a stencil and sprayed with paint.
Eine solche Verfahrensweise weist eine Vielzahl von Nachtellen auf. Soll der Aufdruck mehrere Farben beinhalten, muss für jede Farbe eine neue Schablone aufgelegt werden, so dass der Vorgang des Lackierens wiederholt werden muss, was vergleichsweise aufwändig ist. Darüber hinaus geht ein Großteil des Sprühlacks verloren, da er durch die Maschen hindurchgesprüht wird.Such a methodology has a variety of nights. If the imprint is to contain several colors, a new stencil must be applied for each color, so that the process of painting must be repeated, which is comparatively complicated. In addition, a large part of the spray is lost because it is sprayed through the mesh.

Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Netz und ein Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung zu schaffen, bei dem ein einfaches Aufbringen von Werbung oder anderen Informationen möglich ist.Against this background, the invention has the object to provide a network and a method for its production, in which a simple application of advertising or other information is possible.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst mit einem Netz mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und einem Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 14.This object is achieved with a network having the features of
Ein wesentlicher Gedanke der Erfindung besteht darin, dass das Netzmaterial nicht mehr aus Seilen bzw. Fäden besteht, die zu Maschen zusammengeknotet werden, sondern aus einer flächigen, insbesondere vollflächigen Folie, aus der Löcher herausgenommen werden, so dass eine Maschenstruktur aus einer Vielzahl miteinander verbundenen Stegen verbleibt.An essential idea of the invention is that the net material no longer consists of ropes or threads, which are knotted together into stitches, but from a flat, in particular full-surface foil, are taken out of the holes, so that a mesh structure of a plurality interconnected Webs remains.
Während es bei herkömmlichen Netzen nicht möglich war, sie in wirtschaftlicher Weise vor der Verknotung der Maschen einzufärben, und das Aufbringen von Werbung nach der Verknotung aufwändig ist, ist es bei den erfindungsgemäßen Netzen möglich, die Folie beispielsweise einer Druckmaschine zuzuführen und einseitig oder beidseitig ganz oder teilweise zu bedrucken. Dies geschieht bevorzugt, bevor Löcher in die Folie eingebracht werden und sie damit ihre Maschenstruktur erhält, kann aber je nach Festigkeit der Folie auch nach dem Einbringen der Löcher erfolgen. Hierdurch wird es auf einfache Weise möglich, die erfindungsgemäßen Netze teilweise oder auch vollflächig mit Informationen bzw. Werbung zu versehen.While it was not possible in conventional networks to color them economically before knotting the stitches, and the application of advertising after knotting is complex, it is possible with the nets of the invention to supply the film, for example, to a printing machine and single-sided or double-sided or partially printed. This is preferably done before holes are introduced into the film and it thus obtains their mesh structure, but can also be done after the introduction of the holes, depending on the strength of the film. This makes it possible in a simple manner to provide the networks according to the invention partially or even over the entire area with information or advertising.
Eine andere Möglichkeit des Aufbringens von Werbung besteht darin, die Folie mit einer die Information tragenden Klebefolie zu beschichten, bevor die Löcher in den Verbund aus Folie und Klebefolie eingebracht werden.Another possibility of applying advertising is to coat the film with an information-carrying adhesive film before the holes are introduced into the composite of film and adhesive film.
Ein anderer besonderer Vorteil der Erfindung liegt darin, dass die Dicke der Folie und damit die Dicke der verbleibenden Stege bei ausreichend festem Folienmaterial geringer ist als die Dicke der für herkömmliche Netze aus textilen Fäden bzw. Seilen, so dass die Öffnung der Maschen für einen im spitzen Winkel zum Netz stehenden Betrachter größer ist als bei herkömmlichen Netzen. Dies ist insbesondere von Vorteil bei Volleyball- und Beachvolleyballnetzen, da es gerade in diesen Sportarten für die Schiedsrichter wichtig ist, im spitzen Winkel durch das Netz hindurch die andere Spielfeldseite beobachten zu können.Another particular advantage of the invention is that the thickness of the film and thus the thickness of the remaining webs with sufficiently strong film material is less than the thickness of conventional networks of textile threads or ropes, so that the opening of the mesh for a in the acute angle to the grid viewer is greater than in conventional networks. This is particularly advantageous in volleyball and beach volleyball networks, since it is important in these sports for the referees to be able to observe the other side of the field at an acute angle through the network.
Grundsätzlich können die Löcher eine x-beliebige Form aufweisen. In Anlehnung an herkömmliche Netze bietet sich eine quadratische Form der Löcher an, wobei die Ecken der Löcher für eine Verbesserung des Kräfteflusses durch die Maschenstege und eine erhöhte Einreißfestigkeit abgerundet sein können.In principle, the holes may have any desired shape. Similar to conventional nets, a square shape of the holes may be used, and the corners of the holes may be rounded to improve the flow of forces through the mesh bars and increased tear strength.
Das Flächenverhältnis von Löchern zu Maschenfolie beträgt bevorzugt 3:1 oder mehr, besonders bevorzugt 4:1 oder mehr. Wesentliche Kriterien, nach denen das Flächenverhältnis festgelegt werden kann, sind beispielsweise die für den jeweiligen Einsatzbereich notwendige Durchsichtigkeit des Netzes, die auf das Netz einwirkenden und von diesem aufzunehmenden Kräfte sowie die für eine optimale Darstellung der Informationen benötigte Fläche.The area ratio of holes to mesh film is preferably 3: 1 or more, more preferably 4: 1 or more. Essential criteria by which the area ratio can be determined are, for example, the transparency of the network necessary for the respective field of application, the forces acting on and absorbed by the network and the area required for an optimal representation of the information.
Insbesondere bei quadratischen oder rechteckigen Löchern kann es vorteilhaft sein, wenn die zwischen den Löchern verlaufenden Stege der Maschenfolie, insbesondere die in horizontaler und vertikaler Richtung verlaufenden Stege, unterschiedlich breit sind. Beispielsweise können bei im wesentlichen in Querrichtung aufzunehmenden Zugkräften horizontal verlaufende Stege gegenüber den vertikal verlaufenden Stegen breit ausgeführt sein, wobei die vertikal verlaufenden Stege im wesentlichen die Aufgabe haben, die horizontalen Stege in einem gleichmäßigen Abstand zueinander zu halten.Especially with square or rectangular holes, it may be advantageous if the webs extending between the holes of the mesh film, in particular in horizontal and vertical direction extending webs, are different in width. For example, horizontally extending webs can be made wide with respect to the vertically extending webs at substantially absorbed in the transverse direction tensile forces, the vertical webs essentially have the task to keep the horizontal webs at a uniform distance from each other.
Losgelöst von der Vorstellung von Netzen mit quadratischen oder rechteckigen Maschen sind Größe, Form und/oder Anordnung der Löcher zueinander an den Aufdruck angepasst und variieren gegebenenfalls über die Gesamtfläche des Netzes.Detached from the idea of networks with square or rectangular mesh size, shape and / or arrangement of the holes are adapted to each other to the print and may vary over the total area of the network.
Grundsätzlich ist es möglich, Netze über an ihre Seitenkanten eingreifende Kammern zwischen Pfosten oder in einer Rahmenstruktur einzuspannen. Bevorzugt sind jedoch an den erfindungsgemäßen Netzen Befestigungsmittel, wie beispielsweise Ösen, vorgesehen, über die die Netze verspannt werden können. So ist in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform mindestens eine mindestens teilweise entlang einer der Seitenkante der Folie verlaufende Schlaufe vorgesehen, durch die Seile zu Befestigungs- bzw. Verspannungszwecken hindurchgeführt werden können. Es können ebenso bevorzugt auch eine Vielzahl von nebeneinander angeordneten Schlaufen an einer oder mehreren Seiten der Folie angeordnet sein, ebenso wie auch - je nach Art und Funktion des Netzes - eine sich entlang mindestens 90 % der Länge einer Seitenkante erstreckende Schlaufe bevorzugt sein kann. Die Schlaufen können beispielsweise durch Falten der jeweiligen Seitenbereiche der Folie erzeugt werden, wobei dann die frelen Kanten des umgefalteten Folienteils mit dem Rest der Folie verschweißt oder verkiebt oder gegebenenfalls sogar vernäht werden können.In principle, it is possible to clamp nets via intervening at their side edges chambers between posts or in a frame structure. However, fastening means, such as eyelets, are preferably provided on the nets according to the invention, by means of which the nets can be tensioned. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, at least one loop extending at least partially along one of the side edges of the film is provided, through which ropes can be passed for fastening or tensioning purposes. It is also preferred that a plurality of juxtaposed loops be disposed on one or more sides of the foil, as well as - depending on the nature and function of the net - a loop extending along at least 90% of the length of a side edge may be preferred. The loops can be produced, for example, by folding the respective side regions of the film, in which case the framel edges of the folded film part can be welded or squeezed or optionally even sewn together with the remainder of the film.
Werden einzelne Schlaufen an einer Seite der Folie benötigt, können überschüssige Flächen in den Seitenbereichen der Folie weggeschnitten werden, was vorzugsweise vor dem Umfalten der Seitenbereiche erfolgt.If individual loops are needed on one side of the film, excess areas in the side areas of the film can be cut away, which is preferably done before folding the side areas.
Eine andere Form von Befestigungsmitteln sind Ösen, die alternativ oder in Ergänzung zu den Schlaufen in einem oder mehreren Randbereichen der Folie, insbesondere in ihren Ecken angeordnet sein können.Another form of fastening means are eyelets, which may alternatively or in addition to the loops in one or more edge regions of the film, in particular in its corners can be arranged.
Die Folien können bevorzugt Kunststofffolien, insbesondere Polyethylen, Polypropylen, Polyamid und/oder PVC enthaltende Kunststofffolien sein. Auch haben sich Folien mit einer textilen Struktur, deren Fasern untereinander verklebt oder verschweißt sind, als vorteilhaft erwiesen.The films may preferably be plastic films, in particular polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide and / or PVC-containing plastic films. Also have slides with a textile structure whose fibers are glued or welded together, proved to be advantageous.
Je nach Einsatzbereich kann es schließlich auch von Vorteil sein, wenn das verwendete Folienmaterial transparent oder semitransparent ist.Depending on the field of application, it may ultimately also be advantageous if the film material used is transparent or semitransparent.
Wie bereits erwähnt, ist es bei der Herstellung eines erfindungsgemäßen Netzes von Vorteil, wenn die Folie einseitig oder beidseitig bedruckt wird, bevor die Löcher in die Folie eingebracht werden. Einfache Möglichkeiten zum Einbringen der Löcher in die Folie bestehen im Ausstanzen, Herausschweißen, Schneiden oder Schneidplotten der Löcher. Das Schneiden oder Schneidplotten der Löcher kann dabei mit herkömmlichen Messern, aber auch mit einem Wasserstrahl unter Hochdruck, gegebenenfalls auch mit einem Laserschneidverfahren erfolgen, wobei beim letzteren gegebenenfalls darauf zu achten ist, dass sich die Festigkeit- und/oder die Elastizitätseigenschaften der Folie an der Schnittkante aufgrund der thermischen Gegebenheiten nicht oder nicht wesentlich verschlechtern.As already mentioned, it is advantageous in the production of a mesh according to the invention if the film is printed on one side or on both sides before the holes are introduced into the film. Simple ways to introduce the holes in the film are in the punching, welding out, cutting or Schneidplotten the holes. The cutting or Schneidplotten the holes can be done with conventional knives, but also with a jet of water under high pressure, optionally with a laser cutting process, the latter may be necessary to ensure that the strength and / or the elasticity properties of the film on the Cutting edge due to the thermal conditions not or not significantly worsen.
Insbesondere bei Schneidverfahren, bei denen das Schnittmuster elektronisch gesteuert bzw. geregelt werden kann, bietet es sich an, die Form, Größe und Anordnung der Löcher in der Folie an einen Aufdruck anzupassen. Bei den meisten Sportarten ist eine regelmäßige symmetrische Anordnung und Form der Löcher nicht zwingend notwendig, so dass die Möglichkeit besteht, durch eine entsprechende Anordnung und Formgebung der Löcher die auf eine Folie aufgebrachte Information deutlicher hervorzuheben, indem beispielsweise Löcher an einer Schriftkante entlang angeordnet sind, anstatt dass sie eine Schnittkante übergreifen und somit die Kontur der Schrift stören. Dementsprechend können Form, Größe und Anordnung der Löcher in der Folie auch an den zu erwartenden Kräfteverlauf innerhalb des Netzes angepasst sein und über die Gesamtfläche des Netzes gegebenenfalls variieren.In particular, in cutting processes in which the pattern can be electronically controlled or regulated, it makes sense to adapt the shape, size and arrangement of the holes in the film to a print. In most sports, a regular symmetrical arrangement and shape of the holes is not mandatory, so that there is the possibility, by an appropriate arrangement and shaping of the holes to highlight the information applied to a film more clearly, for example by holes are arranged along a writing edge along instead of overlapping a cut edge and thus disturbing the contour of the font. Accordingly, the shape, size and arrangement of the holes in the film can also be adapted to the expected course of forces within the network and possibly vary over the total area of the network.
Um auf einfache Weise eine Schlaufe an der Folie vorzusehen, die beispielsweise zur Befestigung des Netzes mit einem Zugseil zusammenwirkt, kann mindestens ein Teilstück einer Seite der Folie umgefaltet und die zugehörige Seitenkante an der Folie befestigt, insbesondere verschweißt werden. Andere bevorzugte Möglichkeiten der Befestigung der Seitenkante bestehen in ihrem Annähen oder Ankleben an der Folie.In order to easily provide a loop on the film, which cooperates, for example, for fastening the network with a pull rope, at least a portion of one side of the film folded over and attached the associated side edge of the film, in particular welded. Other preferred ways of securing the side edge are in their sewing or adhering to the film.
Auf ähnliche Weise können eine oder mehrere Seitenkanten durch Falten oder Wickeln und Verkleben, Vernähen oder Verschweißen verstärkt werden. Auch ist eine Verstärkung der Seitenkanten durch eine thermische Formgebung möglich. Auch kann es von Vorteil sein, wenn dabei ein Seil, insbesondere ein Zugseil in die Seitenkante eingewickelt oder eingefaltet wird, da so ein mühsames Hindurchziehen des Seils durch eine hierfür vorgesehene Schlaufe entfällt und das Seil fester mit der Netzkante verbunden ist.Similarly, one or more side edges may be reinforced by folding or wrapping and gluing, sewing or welding. A reinforcement of the side edges by a thermal shaping is possible. It may also be an advantage if a rope, in particular a pull rope is wrapped or folded in the side edge, since so a tedious pulling the rope through a loop provided for this purpose is eliminated and the rope is more firmly connected to the edge of the network.
Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand von Figuren, in denen beispielhaft die Zwischenprodukte bei der Herstellung eines einfachen Ausführungsbeispiels eines erfindungsgemäßen Netzes vereinfacht dargestellt sind, näher erläutert.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to figures in which, by way of example, the intermediates are shown in simplified form in the production of a simple embodiment of a network according to the invention.

Aber selbst nach Einbringen der Löcher in die Folie ist ein Bedrucken möglich, sofern die verbleibende Maschenstruktur ausreichend steif ist, so dass das Netz beim Bedrucken seine Form beibehält.Although the indicated order of processing steps is preferred, any other order is possible as long as the holes are inserted into the film after printing. However, even after the holes have been introduced into the film, printing is possible as long as the remaining mesh structure is sufficiently stiff so that the net retains its shape when printed.
Wie sich unschwer erkennen lässt, ist diese Verfahrensweise wesentlich weniger aufwändig als das Verknoten von Fäden oder Seilen zu Maschen. Somit besteht der besondere Vorteil nicht nur in der Möglichkeit des einfachen Bedruckens, sondern es wurde eine neuartige Netzform geschaffen, die auch unbedruckt gegenüber herkömmlichen Netzen ganz wesentliche Vorteile aufweist.As can easily be seen, this procedure is much less complicated than the knotting of threads or ropes to stitches. Thus, the particular advantage not only in the possibility of simple printing, but it was created a novel network shape, which also has unprinted over conventional networks quite significant advantages.
