Winged Slat

Abstract

A winged slat for a chain link fence having a front, a back, a first side, and a second side. A first wing or fin, which is not flexible and resilient, extends along and, in a substantially straight line, outward from any location other than a corner of the first side of the elongate body. A second wing or fin extends along and, in a substantially straight line, outward from any location other than a corner of the second side of the elongate body. Preferably the wings or fins extend the full length of the elongate body. The wings can be attached at any location to the side of the elongate body and can be at any angles to such sides. Furthermore, the two angles need not be the same.

         1 . A winged slat, which comprises:
 an elongate body having a front, a back, a first side, and a right side;   a first wing, which is not flexible and resilient, extending along and, in a substantially straight line, outward from any location except a corner of the first side of said elongate body; and   a second wing extending along and, in a substantially straight line, outward from the second side of said elongate body.   
     
     
         2 . The winged slat as recited in  claim 1 , wherein:
 said first wing extends the full length of the first side of said elongate body; and   said second wing extends the full length of the second side of said elongate body.
