Object of the invention

La presente patente de invención consiste en un lazo continuo formado por una serie de fibras para el soporte de cargas y su procedimiento de fabricación. Este lazo de fibras para el soporte de cargas puede ser alterado en sus características, tanto de limite de carga como de elasticidad, variando el número de fibras del que consta el lazo. La presente patente de invención tiene su aplicación en todo aquel campo industrial donde se necesiten elementos flexibles de soporte de cargas con unas especificaciones exactas en cuanto a elasticidad y limite de carga.The present invention patent consists of a continuous loop formed by a series of fibers for the support of loads and their manufacturing procedure. This fiber loop for The load support can be altered in its characteristics, both load limit and elasticity, varying the number of fibers of which the loop consists. The present invention patent It has its application in all that industrial field where need flexible load bearing elements with some exact specifications in terms of elasticity and limit of load.

Background of the invention

Los lazos basados en haces de fibras fabricados hasta la fecha no han sido diseñados bajo la premisa de mantener una tensión constante en cada una de sus fibras y dentro de una formación geométrica determinada. Por ello, cuando estos lazos son sometidos a diversas tensiones, las cargas sufren por desigual los esfuerzos mecánicos originados por la carga.Ties based on manufactured fiber bundles to date they have not been designed under the premise of maintaining a constant tension in each of its fibers and within a determined geometric formation. Therefore, when these ties are under various stresses, the loads suffer unequally mechanical stress caused by the load.

Esto significa que no es posible predecir con cierta precisión el límite elástico del lazo y sus cargas máximas antes de producirse la rotura. Esta falta de precisión en los diversos procedimientos de fabricación de los lazos origina, a su vez, que estos se tengan que sobredimensionar y, por tanto, no puedan ser construidos en su tamaño óptimo.This means that it is not possible to predict with some precision the elastic limit of the loop and its maximum loads before breakage occurs. This lack of precision in various manufacturing procedures for the ties originates time, that these have to be oversized and therefore not They can be built in their optimal size.

Description of the invention

El procedimiento para la fabricación de un lazo de fibras para soporte de cargas y producto así obtenido, objeto de la presente patente de invención consiste, básicamente, en la construcción de un lazo continuo donde todas las fibras que lo conforman son enrolladas a una tensión constante bajo un patrón geométrico exacto.The procedure for making a loop of fibers for load bearing and product thus obtained, object of The present invention patent basically consists of the construction of a continuous loop where all the fibers that make up are rolled at a constant tension under a pattern exact geometric

El proceso de enrollado de las fibras bajo una tensión constante asegura que las cargas se repartan a lo largo del lazo uniformemente en todas las fibras que componen el mencionado lazo.The fiber winding process under a constant tension ensures that loads are spread along the tie evenly in all the fibers that make up the aforementioned tie.

Por tanto, el procedimiento de fabricación del lazo de fibras para el soporte de cargas, asegura su mínima dimensión y puede ser fabricado con sus exactas características en cuanto a elasticidad y resistencia.Therefore, the manufacturing process of fiber loop for load bearing, ensures its minimum dimension and can be manufactured with its exact characteristics in As for elasticity and resistance.

Los lazos son fabricados enrollando fibras entre dos extremos redondeados bajo una tensión constante. Las fibras se colocarán siguiendo un patrón geométrico regular.The ties are manufactured by winding fibers between two rounded ends under constant tension. The fibers are placed following a regular geometric pattern.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

El procedimiento de fabricación del lazo de soporte de cargas está compuesto, básicamente por los siguientes subprocesos:The loop manufacturing process load support is basically composed of the following threads:

En primer lugar, las distintas fibras se disponen en una máquina preparada al efecto, la cual se encarga de enrollar a tensión constante y controlada. cada una de las fibras sobre dos extremos redondeados. Las fibras se alinean sobre los extremos redondeados gracias a un carro mecánico que alinea la fibra en la posición exacta. Se situarán tantas fibras sobre estos extremos redondeados como sean necesarias para cumplir las especificaciones deseadas para ese lazo en concreto.First, the different fibers are they have a machine prepared for this purpose, which is responsible for wind at constant and controlled tension. each of the fibers on two rounded ends. The fibers line up on the rounded ends thanks to a mechanical car that aligns the fiber in the exact position. So many fibers will be placed on these rounded ends as necessary to meet the Desired specifications for that particular loop.

Una variante de esta primera etapa, en cuanto a la forma en la que se alinean las fibras respecto de los extremos redondeados, es aquella en la que se utiliza un dispositivo giratorio que enrolla las fibras sobre los extremos redondeados en función de su propio movimiento de rotación de tal manera que en los extremos del eje de rotación se colocarán los extremos redondeados, sobre uno de ellos se situará el principio de la fibra, y el propio movimiento de rotación del eje hará que la fibra se enrolle sobre ambos extremos redondeados.A variant of this first stage, in terms of the way the fibers align with respect to the ends rounded, is one in which a device is used swivel that rolls the fibers over the rounded ends in function of its own rotation movement in such a way that in the ends of the rotation axis will be placed the ends rounded, the fiber principle will be placed on one of them, and the shaft's own rotation movement will make the fiber roll over both rounded ends.

Una vez generado el lazo por cualquiera de los dos métodos anteriormente expuestos, el lazo pasará a un segundo subproceso, donde será encapsulado mediante un recubrimiento cualquiera, en función de la utilidad que se le quiera dar.Once the loop is generated by any of the two methods discussed above, the loop will go to a second thread, where it will be encapsulated by a coating anyone, depending on the utility you want to give.

Una vez descrita suficientemente la naturaleza de la presente invención, así como una forma de llevarla a la práctica, solamente queda por añadir que dicha invención puede sufrir ciertas variaciones en forma y materiales, siempre y cuando dichas alteraciones no varíen sustancialmente las características que se reivindican a continuación.Once nature is sufficiently described of the present invention, as well as a way of bringing it to the practice, it only remains to be added that said invention can suffer certain variations in form and materials, as long as these alterations do not substantially vary the characteristics which are claimed below.
