saocx- REsIsTANT ROPE Filed may 2o, 1957 v W wav rafa 5505 A ,Fu/v ro/v United States Patent O l SHOCK RESISTANT RoPE Leslie A. Runton, Middle Haddam, Conn., assignor to The Russell Manufacturing Company, Middletown, Conn., a corporation of Connecticut Application May 20, 1957, Serial No. 660,275 7 Claims. (Cl. 87-2) This invention relates to ropes or cables having high tensile strength and capable of substantial elongation under shock load.
An object is to provide a rope or cable of the above type having novel and improved characteristics.
A more specific object is to provide an improved rope or cable which is adapted to withstand high shock loads such as in a harness for an airplane landing parachute or a runway net for arresting jet planes.
Another object is to provide a rope or cable in which the tensile strength is equal to substantially the full value of the total strength of the individual strands making up the cable.
Other objects and advantages will be apparent as the nature of the invention is more fully disclosed.
It is recognized that when a plurality of strands are twisted into yarn and woven or braided together the `total strength of the product is only a small fraction of the total strength of the individual strands due to the weakening effect at the cross-overs and the difference in tension of the various strands. When subjected to load the more highly tensioned or the weaker strands break, thereby increasing the load on the remaining strands which break progressively. At no time do all of the strands cooperate in withstanding the load.
The present invention overcomes this difficulty and provides a rope or cable composed of a large number of individual strands of high tensile strength and high elongation under load which are so arranged that all of the strands cooperate in withstanding the pull of the load.
More specifically the rope or cable is composed of a large number, for example, 300,000 or more strands of crimped continuous filaments composed of a high tenacity material such as nylon, high tenacity rayon, Fortesan or the like which are bound tightly in a bundle in which the filaments lie substantially parallel and under substantially equal tension. The filaments are crimped and heat-set in a predetermined uniform manner to provide substantial elongation under stress and the bundle is bound in a stretchable sheath or covering which holds the bundle compacted but does not restrain its elongations.
The invention will be better understood by referring to the following description, taken in connection with the accompanying drawing in which a specific embodiment has been set forth for purposes of illustration.
In the drawing:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a runway net for arresting jet planes; and
Fig. 2 is a detail view, on a larger scale, showing the construction of the rope or cable; and
Fig. 3 is a detail View showing the invention applied to a landing parachute for planes.
Referring to the drawing the rope or cable 1t) is shown in Fig. 2 as composed of a bundle of strands 11 of crimped, continuous laments of high tenacity material.
The bundle of crimped filaments 11 is encased in a braided tube 14 composed of yarns 15 of nylon or other 2,841,046 Patented July 1, 1958 material having a high tensile strength which are braided together while under a high tension so as to hold the filaments 11 under a high compacting pressure which prevents relative displacement thereof during use. For additional protection and strength a second braided tube 16 composed of yarns 1'7, similar to the yarns 15, may be disposed over the tube 14 and a protective cover 18 of stretchable material such as natural or synthetic rubber or a plastic material is' disposed over the assembly. The cover may for example be composed of latex, neoprene, polyethylene or a vinyl compound.
Due to the characteristics of the crimped filaments, the diameter of the bundle tends to decrease when the bundle is placed under tension. Abraided tube also has the property of contracting to a smaller diameter when stretched, because of the increase in pitch of the turns ofthe individual yarn. Hence the contraction of the tube compensates for the decrease in diameter of the bundle and maintains the bundle under a compacting force regardless of the amount of stretch to which itis subjected.
In this way all of the individual strands are caused to take their part of the load and the total strength of the rope is nearly equal to the sum of the tensile strengths of the individual strands, as distinguished from the comparatively low total strength of a rope having the same number of strands in the form of twisted and plied yarns,
wherein the strands are weakened at the points of crossover and cannot be made to share their respective portions of the load.
The crimp amplitude and frequency determines the extensibility or stretch of the rope. Such a crimp may be produced in various known ways as by the use of a gear crimper with means for heat-setting the crimp in the case of nylon, or other thermoplastic filaments.
The strands are held in parallel relationship, and under a uniform tension while being wrapped so that all of the strands are equally stressed and will assume their part of the total load.
When a rope of this type is subjected to a shock load the entire bundle stretches to absorb the shock and the pitch of the helical wrapping is extended to accommodate the elongation of the core. The protective covering layer 17 is adapted to stretch a corresponding amount so as to protect the stretched rope without interfering with its extensibility.
Fig. l illustrates the use of the above described rope in a runway net for arresting jet planes. In Fig. l a pair of such ropes 10 are strung around rollers 20 on fixed posts 21 and are passed over spreaders 22 to a coupling 23 of a hydraulic or pneumatic arresting cylinder 24. Ropes 10a are tied into the form of a net 25 between the ropes 10. The ropes 10a are similar to the ropes 10 but may be of somewhat smaller diameter.
The net 25 is shown as disposed at the end of a runway 27 which constitute an airport or carrier runway.
In operation, when a landing plane engages the net 25 the shock first stretches the ropes 10 and 10a and exerts a pull on the cylinders 24 which causes a movement of the pistons therein (not shown) against the restraining effect of the fiuid in the cylinder. This movement of the pistons assists the rope in absorbing the shock until the plane is brought to rest.
The ropes 10 may also be used as shroud lines 30 forming a part of a parachute harness for attaching a landing parachute 31 to a plane 32 as shown in Fig. 3.
The ropes provide the necessary resilience and tensile strength for absorbing the shock as the parachute opens to exert a braking effect on the plane.
Other uses and adaptations will be apparent to a person skilled in the art.
