Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hybrid steel-textile reinforcement ply for tires comprising at least one continuous steel cord (2), and at least one textile yarn (3), wherein the continuous steel cord (2) is weft inserted in the textile yarn (3) essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the weft direction and wherein the steel cord (2) in the reinforcement ply (1) has continuous edges (4) as well as to a method for producing such a reinforcement ply.
Abstract:
A reinforcing carbon fiber base material capable of being formed into a large-sized structure and a FRP which is integral therewith and in various shapes by disposing metal wires inside the reinforcing carbon fiber base material at 4 % in volume of the reinforcing fiber and accurately detecting strain conditions occurring in a structure and a FRP. A laminate and a detection method, wherein metal wires are disposed inside the reinforcing carbon fiber base material at not higher than 4 % volume ratio and base materials are laminated with metal wire insertion positions different from one another so that the number of layers of the laminate and a laminating direction that could not be detected by a common non-destructive inspection method can be detected non-destructively and simply. The reinforcing carbon fiber base material, the laminate and the detection method can be preferably applied to the repairing and reinforcing of an FRP-made structure, especially a concrete structure.
Abstract:
A one-piece or otherwise unitary annular shim member made from a carbon material is used to maintain a space between stacked annular preforms during a manufacturing process, such as densification. The one-piece structure advantageously simplifies the arrangement of the preforms in a process chamber and causes less deformation in the preforms. The carbon composition also provides beneficial thermal effects that improve the densification process. A debonding coating is provided on the annular shim member in order to facilitate separation of the annular preforms from the shim members.
Abstract:
A screen includes three or four layers of woven metal screen cloth. The coarsest of these layers is a structural layer (26) includes threads (32) which are woven into the cloth with surfaces (32) which are fusible below a temperature at which the other layers of screen cloth are heat affected. These woven threads (28) include each of the threads in the coarse screen cloth with the coated threads being wire with fusible polypropylene or polyethylene coatings (30). The cloth could alternatively be coated or a fusible grid (42) used. A support layer (12) above the structural layer (26) may include a woven metal screen with woven elements (18) which are either coated with fusible material or are solidly of fusible material woven periodically therethrough in at least one direction. A fusible grid (42) could alternatively be employed. Screens are laminated with one or two fine mesh screens (10, 14) heated on the support woven screen cloth (12) with fusible surfaces (22) to locate the fusible material in the finer cloths (10, 14). The structural layer (26) of woven screen cloth has the fusible surfaces (32) only encapsulating the support layer (12) just above and not the finer screen cloths (10, 14) on the other side of the support layer.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a singlefacer or doublebacker belt having a endless spiral-link base (1) structure. The base structure includes a top surface and a bottom surface, and further includes a plurality of side-by-side metal spirals (2, 4), each spiral defining an internal space (6, 8), wherein the spirals are interconnected by a series of parallel pintles (3) extending through the internal spaces of adjacent spirals.
Abstract:

In oder auf dem textilen Träger sind eine textile Antenne sowie ein mit der textilen Antenne verbundenes elektronisches Chipmodul angeordnet.
Abstract:
An air bag having light weight and a flexibility, capable of being stored more compactly, highly durable with respect to a load during an operation thereof and long-term aging, and formed of a bag body of two pieces of woven fabric comprising polyamide synthetic fibers containing 30-200 ppm copper compound in terms of copper, or a three-dimensionally and properly formed cut cloth, characterized in that the woven fabrics have a product of a total fineness of weft yarn or warp yarn and fabric density of not more than 1600 decitex.number of yarns/2.54 cm, a load at an elongation percentage of 15 % of 3-35 N/%/2.54 cm, and an extension breakage work volume before the occurrence of breakage of 7000-30000 N.%/2.54 cm. This air bag can be used as any one of an air bag for driver's seat of an automobile, an air bag for an assistant driver's seat thereof and a side air bag thereof.
