Patent ID: 8561649

Claim:
A weaving process for making three-dimensional structures with bidimensional walls including a first face, a second face, and a third face connected to one another by three ridges joining together in a corner and in which the threads of the weaving weft are continuous between the faces, the process comprising: a) placing a warp thread web intended for weaving of the first face; b) weaving the web by threads of primary ply to form the first face, the weft threads being prolonged on an edge of the first face so as to form a web of secondary ply threads for the second face; c) once the first face is woven, inserting a secondary ply thread in the web of primary ply threads and in the web of secondary ply threads, in this order or in the inverse order, so as to obtain a continuous thread forming an angle about the first face, d) offsetting in a direction including a component normal for webs of the first face by a distance greater than or equal to the fabric thickness formed by the secondary ply thread; and e) repeating the inserting c) and offsetting d) to form the second and third faces.
