Claim:
An apparatus comprising a flexible guide ( 1 ) and a mosquito net ( 100 ), wherein said flexible guide ( 1 ) is fixable to a window opening and comprises: a plurality of rigid adjacent links ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ), each link ( 2 a , 2 b 200 ) includes two flanks ( 5 a , 5 b , 205 ) that are opposite to each other and which receives the mosquito net between them, and a connecting portion ( 6 , 206 ) arranged transversally to the flanks ( 5 a , 5 b ) and fixed to the flanks ( 5 a , 5 b ), wherein each link ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ) is provided with a seating ( 4 , 204 ) for receiving a flexible strap element ( 3 , 230 ) in order to form, with adjacently-situated links ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ), a single chain, wherein each flank ( 5 a , 5 b ) has two identical triangular lateral fins ( 8 a , 8 b ) disposed opposite each other at opposite ends of each flank ( 5 a , 5 b ), and each link ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ) of the guide ( 1 ) co-penetrates into an adjacent link ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ), by an arrangement in which the fins of the flanks of one of said adjacent links ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ) are interposed between and laterally touching the fins of the flanks of the adjacent link, so that each link ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ) is able to rotate with respect to the adjacent link ( 2 a , 2 b , 200 ) by an angle close to 90 degrees.
