Abstract:
A belt or a belt segment has a plurality of strength members that extend in a longitudinal direction (X) and are arranged parallel to one another, and a connecting element which forms one end of the belt or belt segment and is configured to be connected to a further connecting element at the other end of the belt or to one end of a further belt segment. The ends of the strength members are held by the connecting element. The belt or belt segment is characterized in that the ends of the strength members are connected to at least one clamping body in a force-fitting manner, wherein the clamping body can be held by the connecting element in a force-fitting manner at least in the longitudinal direction (X).
Abstract:
An apparatus for producing a rubber caterpillar track with tensile members has a cylindrical internal shape for forming the inside contour of the rubber caterpillar track, wherein the internal shape has a cylindrical dome which, in the circumferential direction (U) on its radial outer side, has a plurality of recesses for accommodating unvulcanized shaped elements for internal teeth, and has a cylindrical external shape for forming the outside contour of the rubber caterpillar track, wherein the external shape has a plurality of external shape segments in the circumferential direction (U). The external shape segments each have a recess on their radial inner side for accommodating an unvulcanized shaped element for external teeth. The invention further relates to a method for producing a rubber caterpillar track with tensile members.
Abstract:
A belt or belt segment defines a longitudinal direction and includes a plurality of steel ropes arranged to be essentially mutually in parallel and to extend essentially in the longitudinal direction. The belt or belt segment has at least one open end whereat the steel ropes have respective rope segments extending outwardly therefrom. An attachment device is disposed at the open end and is attached to at least a portion of the rope segments via clamping.
Abstract:
A belt end body includes an arrangement for coupling together with a further corresponding belt end body. The belt end body further includes a plurality of clamping openings and clamping recesses for accommodating reinforcement members of a belt in a clamped manner. The coupling arrangement and the clamping openings lie substantially opposite each other when viewed in the longitudinal direction of the belt end body. The belt end body is configured in such a way that the unclamped segments of the clamped reinforcement members are always in the neutral phase during operation.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a tension member, in particular for use in a belt or in a belt segment, having the steps of: preparing a tension member which has a plurality of tension member strands and filling at least some of the intermediate spaces between the tension member strands with a filling material at least at one open end of the tension member, wherein the tension member remains free of the filling material toward the outside.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a belt or a belt segment having a plurality of strength supports. The strength supports run in the longitudinal direction (X) and are disposed so as to be mutually parallel. A connection element which forms one end of the belt or the belt segment and is configured for connecting to a further connection element of the other end of the belt or to one end of a further belt segment, it being possible for the ends of the strength supports to be held in a force-fitting manner by the connection element by way of press-fitting. The belt or the belt segment includes a part-region of the connection element which is configured as a tool region, in order to serve as a tool part during press-fitting of the ends of the strength supports in the connection element.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a belt or a belt segment having steel cables that run substantially in the longitudinal direction of the belt or belt segment and are disposed so as to be substantially mutually parallel, wherein the belt or the belt segment has at least one open end having a fastening device which via clamping is connected to at least one part of the steel cables. The belt or the belt segment is characterized by at least one measuring installation which is configured to detect a spacing (d) in the longitudinal direction (X) between the belt or the belt segment and the fastening device.
