Abstract:
The invention relates to a belt (16) for drive systems, said belt at least consisting of: an elastic and flame-retardant belt body (A) made from a polymeric material (18) and at least one flame retardant additive, said belt body comprising a cover layer as a belt back and a substructure which has a force transmission zone; and a tension member (17) which is embedded in the belt body, wherein the belt body (A) is partially or completely provided with a coating (19), which coating is single- or multi-layered.
Abstract:
A V-ribbed belt (1), which comprises an extension layer (3) that constitutes a belt back surface, a compression layer (4) that is formed on one surface of the extension layer (3), and core wires (5) that are embedded between the extension layer (3) and the compression layer (4) and extend along the circumferential length direction of the belt, and in which multiple V-shaped rib parts (2) that extend along the circumferential length direction of the belt and serve as a friction conveying surface with a pulley are formed in the compression layer (4) and the friction conveying surface is covered with a knitted fabric (6), wherein: the knitted fabric (6) is knitted of a polyester-based composite yarn and a cellulose-based natural spun yarn; the polyester-based composite yarn is a bulk textured yarn; and the knitting ratio of the cellulose-based natural spun yarn is not less than the knitting ratio of the polyester-based composite yarn.
Abstract:
A splice is described for jointing thermoplastic strips that comprise steel cords. In the splice a splice polymer is used that is a mixture of a co-polymer and a base polymer, wherein the co-polymer is a grafted co-polymer, a block co-polymer or a random co-polymer functionalised for enabling adhesion to the steel cords. Particular about the inventive splice is that the amount of co-polymer in the base polymer is such that in a test-till-break of a splice, part of the steel cords fracture in the test while the remaining cords are pulled out of the polymer without breaking. Surprisingly, a splice with such a failure behaviour results in a better overall splice strength than a splice wherein a too large amount of co-polymer is added. When too much co-polymer is added all steel cords break in the test which strangely enough leads to a lower overall strength of the splice.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a belt including a rubber core covered with a cover fabric 60 including conductivity filaments 70 oriented in warp and weft yarn directions. The method of preparing the belt comprise (i) preparing a cover fabric 60 by orienting conductivity filaments 70 in warp and weft yarn directions, and (ii) covering the cover fabric 60 on a rubber core. The belt is environment-friendly because carbon black, which may produce environmentally hazardous substances, is excluded from the belt. The conductivity filaments are oriented in canvas of the belt with a predetermined interval, so that electrical conductivity can be represented on the entire surface of the belt.
