Abstract:
Elongated bodies made from high tenacity polyolefin fibers are provided that are useful as fishing lines, and processes for making the lines. Fibers having tenacities of at least 39 g/denier are braided and fused together to form braided bodies having very small diameters.
Abstract:
A rope and a method of constructing the rope. The rope may be of 12 x 12 braided construction and include a core for its length. The rope includes a plurality of primary strands, and each of the primary strands includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a high-friction material. The rope also includes a secondary strand surrounded by the plurality of primary strands. The secondary strand includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a low-friction material.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a high traction synthetic rope comprising a braided sheath adhered to a strength member by means of a first synthetic portion and portions of material adhered to the outside surface of the braided sheath by means of a second synthetic portion, where the portions of material are formed of a substance that differs from a substance mainly forming the second synthetic portion and also preferably exhibits greater friction when wet and measured on an iron surface than does the substance mainly forming the second synthetic portion.
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein aus einer Mehrzahl von textilen Untereinheiten (2, 2', 2'') geflochtenes Papierführungsseil (1), wobei jede Untereinheit eine Mehrzahl von Zwirnen (3) aus Multifilamentgarn enthält. Das erfindungsgemäße Seil ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Titer zumindest eines Teiles der Zwirne, bevorzugt aller Zwirne, jeweils maximal 5000 dtex beträgt und dass die Drehung zumindest eines Teiles der Zwirne, bevorzugt aller Zwirne, jeweils zumindest 150 T/m beträgt.
Abstract:
The abrasion resistance of organic fiber based ropes and cords is increased by a outer woven cover of tapes of high molecular weight and more preferably ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene.
Abstract:
Geflochtenes Chemiefaserseil, in dem mindestens ein elektrischer Leiter aufgenommen ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß das Seil zusammen mit dem darin aufgenommenen Leiter thermisch gereckt ist.
Abstract:
A compositie cable (10) including a tubular core (12), an outer textile fiber sheath (22) and at least one intermediate layer of a textile material (16, 18) disposed between a tubular core (12) and the outer sheath (22).
Abstract:
An improved self-spreading trawl (13) includes first panels (56T, 56B) which when towed through a body of water (12) separate on opposite sides of the trawl's central axis (62). Portions of panels (56T, 56B) form portions of the trawl's mouth (26). The trawl (13) also includes second panels (56P, 56S) which separate on opposite sides of the central axis (62) from the sides occupied by the panels (56T, 56B). Portions of panels (56P, 56S) form portions of the trawl's mouth (26). Regions of panels (56P, 56S) generate more outwardly directed lift than corresponding regions of the panels (56T, 56B). When towed through the body of water (12): a) a distance separating the panels (56P, 56S) exceeds; b) a distance separating the panels (56T, 56B). Also a braided product strand which includes at least 3 plaits (76, 102), at least one (76) of which is larger than the others (102), advantageously exhibits less drag and vibration.
Abstract:
A prosthetic ligament (20) includes a cord (22) of thermotropic liquid crystal filaments. The cord preferably comprises multi-filament thermotropic liquid crystal filaments. The cord has an eye (26) spliced at each of its ends.
