Abstract
A slat structure includes a plurality of support sticks integrally woven with a woven fabric into a piece of decoration article wherein the support sticks are equidistantly wrapped in place by the woven fabric, and an adhesive layer is coated at the upper and lower surfaces of the decoration article thereon respectively, securely binding the woven fabric and the support sticks thereby to form a hard and solid piece of the decoration article which is then laterally or vertically dissevered in equal distance into specific horizontal-type or vertical-type slat pieces. Thus, via the weaving of the woven fabric, the slat pieces thereof are equipped with artistic diagrams of rich colors and three-dimensional designs at the upper and lower surfaces thereon. Besides, the woven fabric, securely hold by the supported sticks and further bound by the adhesive layer, can efficiently avoid the loose yarns in cutting operation thereof, preventing the slat pieces from coming or wearing off after long time of repeated friction in use so that the upper and lower surfaces of the slat pieces thereof can be precisely protected by the adhesive layers coated thereon to achieve longer using lifespan of th…
