Abstract:
A two-layer multi-strand metal cable (10) comprises: - an inner layer (C1) of the cable (10) made of K>1 inner strands (Tl) wound in a helix, - an unsaturated outer layer (C2) of the cable (10) consisting of L>1 outer strands (TE) wound in a helix around the inner layer (C1) of the cable (10). Each inner and outer strand (Tl, TE) of the cable (10) comprises: - an inner layer of the strand (Tl, TE) made of 2 inner wires, and - an outer layer of the strand (Tl, TE) consisting of N outer wires wound in a helix around the inner layer of the strand (Tl, TE).
Abstract:
Multistrand metal cable of 4 x (4+M) construction, which can especially be used for reinforcing tyre belts for industrial vehicles, formed from four elementary strands assembled in a helix with a helix pitch (P3), each elementary strand consisting of a two-layer cable of 4+M construction comprising an inner layer (C1) formed from four wires of diameter (D1), assembled in a helix with a pitch (P1), and an unsaturated outer layer (C2) of M wires, M being greater than or equal to 8 and smaller than or equal to 11, of diameter (D2), these being assembled in a helix with a pitch (P2) around the inner layer (C1), (P1) being smaller than (P2), the four wires of the inner layer (C1) being wound in a helix in the same twist direction as the M wires of the outer layer (C2), and wherein each of the diameters (D1) and (D2) is greater than or equal to 0.10 mm but less than or equal to 0.50 mm.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hybrid cord comprising an inner layer (1) in steel cord, an intermediate layer (2) in a high module and high toughness fibre and an outer layer (3) in a Polyolefin fibre. The present invention also refers to its application in an 8 (4x2) cords braided hybrid cable or any other type of hybrid cable presenting another construction, in braided or twisted cables.
Abstract:
A steel cord (10) adapted for the reinforcement of rubber products, the steel cord (10) comprises a core (12) and three or more outer strands (14) twisted around the core (12) in a cord twisting direction. The outer strands (14) comprise outer filaments (16) twisted in a strand twisting direction which is the same as the cord twisting direction. The outer strands (14) have a wavy form which makes spaces between the core (12) and the outer strands. The steel cord (10) has improvements on elongation at break and impact resistance capacity.
Abstract:
Provided are a steel cord for reinforcing rubber whose fatigue resistance is increased more than ever to enable achieving high durability that was not conventionally realized, and a pneumatic radial tire including the steel cord as a reinforcement member. In a steel cord for reinforcing rubber having a double-twist structure that includes a plurality of strands twisted together in the same direction with the same pitch and including a central structure and at least one outer layer, the central structure is composed of at least two strands being twisted around each other and each being composed of at least seven filaments being twisted together. In a steel cord for reinforcing rubber including at least three core strands being twisted together and at least six sheath strands being twisted together around the core strands, the core strands and the sheath strands are twisted in the same direction.
Abstract:
Bei einem durch eine Seilscheibe angetriebenen Treibseil, mit einem Seilkern (19) aus in konzentrischen Litzenlagen (14, 16) miteinander parallelverseilten tragenden Aramidfaserlitzen (9, 10, 11), wird vorgeschlagen, die Litzen (12) einer äussersten Litzenlage (12) im Gegenschlag mit dem Seilkern (19) zu verseilen. Durch die Gegenschlagverseilung heben sich die unter Last in den Litzenlagen (14, 16, 21) entstehenden Drehmomente gegenseitig auf; es wird ein drehungsneutraler Seilaufbau erreicht. Ein elastischer Zwischenmantel (20) zwischen den gegenschlagverseilten Litzenlagen (16, 21) dient als Abriebschutz für die Litzen (10, 11, 12) und einer grossflächigen Drehmomentenübertragung im Aufzugsseil (1).
Abstract:
A metal cord (10 or 26) for reinforcing elastomeric articles, such as earth mover tires, comprises a plurality of metal wire-filament strands, including a center strand and multiple peripheral strands (14 through 24) concentrically surrounding the center strand. Each of the center and peripheral strands includes multiple individual wire filaments (26) of similar diameter having identical strand lay direction and length. Each strand has a hexagonally close-packed longitudinally uniform polygonal outline in which filaments are in concentric layers, with each individual filament being tangential to all adjacently surrounding filaments. The peripheral strands are tangential to the center strand and have a predetermined cord lay length and direction either the same as (Lang's Lay) or opposite to that of the center strand.
Abstract:
A high-elongation composite cord (10) used for reinforcing a rubber composite such as a wheel tire and a conveyor belt. It is made by twisting a plurality of strands (2) each made by twisting a plurality of brass-plated steel filaments (1) and monofilaments (4) of organic fiber. Before twisting the cord (10), monofilaments (4) of organic fiber are put in the gaps formed between the adjacent strands (2) so as to prevent fluidized rubber from penetrating into a center core formed in the cord after the cord has been covered with rubber. The monofilaments (4) should have a diameter small enough not to protrude from a circle (Do) circumscribing the cord and large enough to close the gaps between the adjacent strands.
