Definitions

  • a wire rope for reinforcing flexible articles comprised of at least two flat, rectangular elements twisted together.
  • This invention relates to wires and to cables made of wires, and to the production of particular kinds of metallic wires and to cables made of these wires for use in rein-forcing articles made of rubber, synthetic rubber or plastics, for example, heavy-duty vehicle tires, conveyor and power transmission belts, high-pressure hoses and the like.
  • the moment of inertia of the desired fiat wire is:
  • the area of the section of the original round wire from which the flat wire is made is:
  • the zone (z) in the product which is influenced by the reinforcement, var es with the shape of the reinforcing means.
  • the zone (z) As shown in FIG. 3, of influence is too small. If the same admissible quantity is put into a different shape, taking a larger volume, the zone (2') (FIG. 4) of influence becomes much larger.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a wire which has an improved stiffness in all directions for a given tensile strength.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide cables made of twisted flat wires.
  • Yet another object of the present invention is to provide new and improved means for reinforcing articles made of rubber, plastic or the like materials, which have a greater adhesivity than can be obtained with a round wire or with straight fiat wires.
  • cables for reinforcing articles made of rubber or the like elastic materials which have more bulk for less weight.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide an article of manufacture which is useful and practical and which can be produced easily and economically.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a method of producing cables of flat, twisted wires.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates schematically the forming of a flat wire from a round wire of a given diameter
  • FIG. 2 shows the cross-section of a fiat wire
  • FIG. 3 illustrates the zone of reinforcing influence of a solid round wire in a surrounding body
  • FIG. 4 illustrates the zone of reinforcing influence of a cabled wire in a surrounding body, similar to FIG. 3;
  • FIG. 5 is the front face view of a twisted flat wire;
  • FIG. 6 is a side view of a fiat wire, twisted about its own neutral axis
  • FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a flat wire, spirally twisted around an imaginary inner cylinder.
  • FIG. 8 is a schematic illustration of the method of making twisted, fiat wires.
  • FIG. 9 is a view of two flat wires twisted upon one another.
  • FIG. 10 is a view of two flat wires, spirally twisted around the imaginary inner cylinder similar to FIG. 7.
  • FIG. 1 a round wire 11 having a diameter D, from which a fiat wire 12 is rolled or drawn.
  • FIG. 2 shows the cross-section of the resulting flat wire 12, having the long side h and the short side 11.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 illustrate the various sizes of the zones of the reinforcing influence of a solid round wire 13 and of a wound cabled wire 14, respectively, in a body of rubber, plastic or the like resilient or elastic material 15.
  • a cable or rope according to the present invention, consists either of one or more flat wires 12 which is twisted about its own neutral axis, or which is spirally wound and twisted freely about an imaginary inner cylinder 16 (FIG. 7). It is obvious that several such twisted wires may be twisted around each other FIGS. 9 and 10 for forming a cable which has great bulk but has no great weight (cable not shown in the drawing). It also is obvious that such twisted wire and particularly such twisted cable will be anchored" very firmly in a body made of rubber or the like material.
  • the method of twisting may be described and illustrated by reference to FIG. 8.
  • the flat Wire is twisted first beyond the elastic limit of the material of which it consists (at 17), then it is twisted in a rotating cabling head 18 and eventually gets a final winding at a rotating spool 19.
  • a metallic rope for reinforcing an article made of rubber, plastic or the like material comprising at least two spirally twisted wire elements, each of said elements having a flat rectangular section.
  • a metallic rope according to claim 1 wherein said elements are spirally wound upon one another, each of said elements having a fiat, rectangular section.
  • a metallic rope according to claim 1 said elements being twisted around each other.
