Abstract:
A steel cord (10) for reinforcing rubber product comprises at least one core strand (12) and outer strands (14), the outer strands (14) are helically twisted around at least one core strand (12). Each of the strands (12, 14) comprises core steel filaments (16, 20) with the number of m and outer steel filaments with the number of n. The diameter of the core steel filaments in the core strand is Dcc, the diameter of the outer steel filaments in the core strand is Doc, the diameter of the core steel filament in the outer strand is Dco, and the diameter of the outer steel filament in the outer strand is Doo. The ratio of Dcc/Doc is not less than 1.04, the ratio of Dco/Doo is not less than 1.03, and the ratio of Doc/Dco is not less than 1. The core steel filaments and outer steel filaments are polygonally preformed before being twisted into strands. The steel cord is used for reinforcing off-the-road tire.
Abstract:
A tire with a radial carcass reinforcement made up of at least one layer of metal reinforcing elements, the tire comprising a crown reinforcement itself capped radially with a tread, the tread being connected to two beads via two sidewalls. At least 70% of the metal reinforcing elements of at least one layer of the carcass reinforcement are non wrapped cables which, in what is known as the air-wicking test, display a flow rate of less than 2 cm3/min, and at least 10% of the metal reinforcing elements of the at least one layer of the carcass reinforcement are cables which, in what is known as the air-wicking test, display a flow rate of greater than 4 cm3/min.
Abstract:
A tire having a radial carcass reinforcement, comprised of at least one layer of metal reinforcing elements, said tire comprising a crown reinforcement, which is itself covered radially with a tread, said tread being joined to two beads via two sidewalls. The metal reinforcing elements of at least one layer of the carcass reinforcement are non-hooped cords having, in the permeability test, a flow rate of less than 20 cm3/min and at least one layer of the carcass reinforcement being provided on at least one side with at least one layer of textile threads of straight orientation and said textile threads forming an angle with the direction of the metal reinforcing elements of said at least one carcass reinforcement layer of more than 10°.
Abstract:
The object of this invention is to provide a steel cord, which has ultrafine steel filaments with a diameter of 0.04-0.14 mm stranded with each other so as to reinforce a tire carcass, and a radial tire for a passenger car using the same. The steel cord includes one core filament with a diameter of 0.04-0.14 mm and 4-7 sheath filaments, each having a diameter of 0.04-0.14 mm, spirally stranded around the core filament. At this time, the steel cord has a diameter of 0.2-0.5 mm and shear strength of 25-35 kgf. Additionally, each of the sheath filaments has a smaller diameter than the core filament, and the core filament and the sheath filaments are made of the steel filaments. The radial tire includes the tire carcass provided with the steel cord and a topping sheet, and the steel cord is embedded in the topping sheet such that a rubber gauge ratio is 200-500 % and a rubber clearance ratio is 60-250 %. The steel cord has improved physical properties, such as shear strength and durability, to reduce a thickness of a carcass including the steel cord, leading to the reduction of a weight of the radial tire. Furthermore, controlling stability and durability of the radial tire are improved, thereby reducing costs of maintenance of the passenger car.
Abstract:
A bead cord which is lightweight and inexpensive, high in formability, and includes an annular core that is high in corrosion resistance. The bead cord which is lightweight and inexpensive and high in formability includes an annular core 1 and a wrap wire 2 helically wrapped around the annular core 1, the annular core 1 being made of a medium carbon steel or an alloy steel having a lower C content and containing specific elements in suitable amounts, and having a diameter dC that satisfies the following relation 1.04≦dC/dS≦1.30 with respect to the diameter dS of the wrap wire 2, the wrap wire 2 having a coil diameter DS which is 0.5 to 1.3 times the coil diameter DC of the annular core 1. In order to improve the corrosion resistance of the annular core 1, the annular core 1 may be formed with a plating layer 4 of an Al—Zn alloy or a thick plating layer 4 of Zn, or the annular core 1 may be made of stainless steel.

Abstract:
In an elevator, preferably one without machine room, a hoisting machine engages a set of hoisting ropes via a traction sheave, said set of hoisting ropes having a load-bearing part twisted from steel wires of circular and/or non-circular cross-section, and in which elevator there is diverting pulleys of which some is made larger than traction sheave. The weight of the hoisting machine of the elevator is at most about ⅕ of the weight of the nominal load of the elevator.
