Abstract:
A method for producing a steel cord from 3 to 6 steel filaments on which a coating is applied to retain the adhesion to a rubber, the steel cord being destined for use to reinforce a rubber product having a flat section, comprising the following steps of preforming steel filaments at a ratio of more than 120% by twisting them together to form an open-structure steel cord; and passing the steel cord through a flattening apparatus provided at each of outlet and inlet thereof with a roller having a groove formed in the center of the circumference thereof, and between the inlet and outlet rollers with at least a roller of which the circumferential surface is flat, to repeatedly bend the steel cord vertically or horizontally.
Abstract:
A steel cord is disclosed, which has a core-sheath double layer structure having a 2+7 cord construction or a 2+8 cord construction. A twisting direction of the core is the same as that of the sheath, a forming rate Rc of filaments of the core is 103 to 120% and a forming rate Rs of filaments of the sheath is 102 to 115%. A pneumatic radial tire using such steel cords in a belt layer is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A steel cord comprises steel filaments twisted around each other in a first direction about at least one steel core filament having a wave form. The twisted filaments are individually subjected to a rotation about their own axes. This steel cord is formed by deforming the core filament into a planar wave form and twisting the core filament in a second direction to a predetermined degree. The core filaments together with the other filaments are twisted in the first direction so that the twisted filaments are individually subjected to a rotation around their own axes in the first direction.
Abstract:
A pneumatic radial tire for truck and bus comprises a carcass ply containing cords arranged substantially in a radial direction of the tire and a belt superimposed about said carcass ply and comprised of plural belt layers each containing steel cords arranged at a cord angle of 5.degree.-20.degree. with respect to an equator of the tire. In this case, the steel cord for the belt layer has a two-layer structure of a core comprised of two steel filaments and a single sheath comprised of 6-8 steel filaments and satisfies the particularly relationships on filament diameter, twisting pitch, bending rigidity, tensile strength and distance between adjoining cords.

Abstract:
A pneumatic radial tire is disclosed. This tire is reinforced with steel cords, each of which has such a flat or elliptic section that two or three strands, each strand being produced by twisting plural filaments, are arranged in parallel with each other so as to make the twisting directions of the adjoining strands opposite to each other to form a core and plural filaments are twisted around the core and wrapped with a spiral filament.
Abstract:
Wires are wound and simultaneously laid directly on the core of the product to form a wound layer between the adjacent wires of which there are peripheral spaces constituting from 15 to 70 percent of the wire diameter. The partly finished twisted wire product made in this manner is subjected to compression so as to cause its plastic deformation in order to obtain the desired shape and size. The wires of the wound layer of the finished product have a contact with the core substantially along the surface thereof as a result of compression applied to the product so as to cause its plastic deformation to produce the desired shape and size.A twisted product made by applying this method has uniform mechanical properties over its whole cross section.
Abstract:
A non-rotating rope, comprising 3 or 4 strands of of clam-shaped cross section so arranged around a flexible core equidistantly from the rope center that the principal axes of the clams are on the equiangularly spaced radial lines radiating from the rope center and the sides of the clams are in contact with one another with the apex and base of each clam directed inwards and outwards respectively, is closed in a direction opposite to the direction of the lay of the strands.
