Abstract:
A method and apparatus for forming belt sleeves having grooves provided in either or both of the inner and outer surfaces thereof. The manufacture includes the provision of a preform laminate on an inner mould (18) and the forcible urging of a constrictable outer mould (24) radially against the laminate at elevated temperatures so as to effect curing of the rubber of the laminate in accurate conformity to the grooved configuration of the inner and outer moulds. The entire assembly is carried on a central support post (20). Pressure plates are provided for urging the constrictable outer mould radially inwardly as the result of threaded advance of nuts (39) on the central post. The grooves (22, 29) in the mould surfaces may selectively be arranged to extend parallel or circumferentially of the central axis of the post as desired to form either longitudinally or transversely extending ribs, grooves, etc., in the formed sleeve belt (10).
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Profilriemen (1), insbesondere einen Zahnriemen, mit in Längsrichtung verlaufender zugfester Einlage (2), der besonders hohen Ansprüchen gewachsen ist. Der Riemen (1) ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß die zugfeste Einlage (2) aus einem perforierten Metall-oder Textilband besteht. Ferner besteht eine Erfindung darin, eaß die zugfeste Einlage (2) durch eine Haftschicht (4) aus Copolymer innig und fest mit einem umschliessenden Profilriemen (1) aus Kunststoff bzw. Kautschuk verbunden ist.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a frictional power transmission belt containing an extensible layer forming a belt back surface, a compressive rubber layer formed on one surface of the extensible layer and frictionally engaging at the lateral surface thereof with pulleys, and a tension member embedded between the extensible layer and the compressive rubber layer along the belt length direction, in which a surface of at least a part of the compressive rubber layer to be in contact with pulleys is coated with a fiber/resin mixture layer that contains a resin component and heat-resistant fibers having a softening point or a melting point higher than a vulcanization temperature in a mixed state, and the heat-resistant fibers contain a fiber embedded so as to extend from the fiber/resin mixture layer to the compressive rubber layer.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for fabricating a belt (1) with upstream treatment of a tension member (3), the belt (1) comprising a belt body made of a polymeric material having elastic properties, comprising a top ply (2) as belt backing and a substructure (4) having a force transmission zone (7), and a tension member (3) embedded into the belt body, the tension member (3) having been treated with crosslinked polymer; in an upstream stage of the belt fabrication method, voids in the tension member (3) are filled at least partly with crosslinked polymer and the tension member (3) is sealed with an envelope layer of crosslinked polymer, this being done, in a single treatment stage or in at least two treatment stages, by wetting of the tension member (3) with an overall treatment mixture comprising at least one prepolymer, at least one crosslinker and at least one solvent or dispersion medium, and then drying of the treated tension member (3). The invention further relates to a belt so produced.
Abstract:
A vulcanized rubber track (100) in the form of an endless belt track having a belt body with a tensile cord (16) layer of helically spiraled tensile cord embedded in the belt body, an overcord rubber layer (14), and an undercord rubber layer (12), wherein the tensile cord is a twisted, single-tow bundle of continuous-filament, carbon fiber impregnated with an adhesive treatment and/or overcoated with adhesive compatible with the rubber of the tensile cord layer. The tow may be 12K or 18K. The carbon fiber may have a filament diameter of from about 6.0 to about 6.4-micron, a tensile modulus of from about 200 to about 300 GPa, an elongation at break of from about 1.9% to about 2.3%.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a belt (1), comprising at least a belt body made of a polymer material having elastic properties, comprising a cover layer (2) as a belt back and a substructure (4) having a force-transmission zone (7), and a tension member (3) in a ribbed design embedded in the belt body. The tension member is prepared with a cross-linked polyurethane in such a way that the polyurethane fills at least part of the tension member cavities. The polyurethane filling material enters into a mechanical connection to the tension member on one side and an adhesive connection to the belt body on the other side. The belt (1) according to the invention is characterized in that the polyurethane filling material is 0.5 to 10 Shore A harder than the belt body. The belt body is preferably likewise made of cross-linked polyurethane, in particular using a carbon tension member. The belt (1) is used in particular for drive technology. The belt is designed in particular as a toothed belt or V-belt. The invention further relates to a preparation method for the tension member (3) of such a belt (1) according to two method variants.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a drive belt (1) having a belt body (2) made from an elastic material and having a tensile reinforcement (3) which extends in a belt longitudinal direction and is surrounded at least in sections by the belt body, for improving the strength of the belt body in the belt longitudinal direction, wherein a carbon cord is provided as tensile reinforcement with a multiplicity of carbon fibres (5) which are twisted with one another, with a multiplicity of intermediate spaces (9) between the carbon fibres, and with a filler (10) which fills the intermediate spaces at least partially, wherein a fracture-reducing filler which is different from the elastic material of the belt body is arranged in a first part of the intermediate spaces of the carbon fibres, and the elastic material of the belt body is arranged in a second part of the intermediate spaces of the carbon fibres, wherein the carbon cord has less than 0.2 mg of the elastic material of the belt body per mm3 cord volume.
