Description

D04G covers industrial processes and machinery for creating knotted textile structures, including fishing nets, safety nets, and decorative knotted carpets or tapestries produced through systematic knotting of filamentary materials. This subclass encompasses various knotting techniques and equipment not classified under other textile manufacturing methods (such as weaving, knitting, or braiding in adjacent classes). Technologies within this scope include hand and machine knotting methods, knot-forming apparatus, and processes for joining or securing filaments through knot formation. Adjacent classes D04B-D04F address other yarn/fabric assembly techniques, while D04H covers non-woven fabrics produced by different consolidation methods.
