Abstract:
A flexible member, comprising: an inner core member, comprising a plurality of strands of liquid crystal polymers cooperating with each other to define and provide the inner core member; an outer sheath disposed about the inner core member, the outer sheath defining an inner opening for receiving the inner core member therein, the inner core member being slidably received within the outer sheath, wherein the flexible member is capable of being disposed about a curved surface, wherein a lubricant is disposed upon an exterior surface of the outer sheath and the outer sheath further comprises an end-fitting member disposed about a portion of the flexible connector, the portion of the flexible connector comprising an engagement surface for securement of the end fitting thereto.
Abstract:
In order to improve visibility and hence to reduce the risk of accidents, a rope, for example a wire rope, is equipped with a number of luminous elements. A luminous element may in this case assume the position of a wire or of a braid, may be integrated in an insert, or may be guided in the spaces between wires or braids and preferably within the theoretical rope circumference. The luminous element may also itself be composed of luminous elements which are twisted together, are twisted or are laid. For strain relief, the luminous elements may be equipped with a reinforcement in the form of a strand, or with a mesh. The luminous element is intended to be connected to a source. In the state when it is fed, the luminous element is actively luminous. Owing to the improved visibility, rope lights may be used not only for a safety function but also for an aesthetic appearance.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a composite cord (10) for reinforcement of elastomers comprising a core (12) of a high polymer material, a first layer of steel filaments (14) twisted around said core and a second layer of steel filaments (16) twisted around said first layer. The polymer material is present in a sufficient volume to create gaps between adjacent filaments of the first layer and possibly also between the filaments of the second layer. The composite cord is characterized by a decreased fretting of the steel filaments.
Abstract:
L'invention concerne un câble de traction (1) comprenant une âme monobloc (2) comprenant un noyau central (4) muni sur sa périphérie d'une série d'ailettes (5) régulièrement espacées formant entre elles des gorges de réception (6) de section au moins partiellement circulaire et des torons (3) disposés autour de l'âme (2) par insertion dans chacune des gorges de réception (6), de telle sorte que l'association de l'âme et des torons (3) présente une enveloppe extérieure de forme sensiblement cylindrique, les torons (3) étant incrustés dans les gorges de réception (6), sans pour autant venir faire fluer les ailettes (5) qui les séparent. L'invention concerne également une âme monobloc (2, 7) pour câble de traction ainsi que l'utilisation de ce câble (1) en tant que câble de traction pure ou en tant que câble porteur-tracteur.
Abstract:
A tyre for motorcycles comprises a carcass structure, a belt structure arranged in a radially outer position with respect to the carcass structure and a tread band arranged in a: radially outer position with respect to the belt structure. The belt structure is. of the zero degree type and comprises at least one reinforcing cord comprising a core (12) made of non metal material.- and a: plurality of metal wires (13) substantially parallel to one another and helically wound around said core (12). with a predetermined winding pitch. The metal wires (13) are in such a number as to not completely surround the core (12).- In particular, the metal wires (13) are arranged around the core (12) so that, in any cross-section of the reinforcing cord (11), they are located at just an angular portion of an ideal circumference that circumscribes the core (12).
Abstract:
Steel cord for a tire which is formed by twisting 3 to 5 steel filaments to form a side strand (5), disposing a core wire (9) or (10), formed of inorganic or organic strands of a type different from the steel filament, within a space surrounded by a plurality of the side strands (5) to form a steel strand, and then twisting a plurality of the steel strands.

Abstract:
An improved top down furling system includes one or more improved components. A lower rotary drive unit with a rotary tack swivel rotates against a fixed portion of the furler, or is configured to permit routing of the tack line below the unit. The system may include an anti-torsion cable constructed in a manner so as to be able to transmit torque without excessive tension applied to the cable. The system also may include an end terminal of the anti-torsion cable having a quick side mount or bayonet type connection to the rotary drive unit.
