摘要:
A sheathed synthetic fiber rope includes concentric layers of load-bearing synthetic fiber strands, preferably of aramide fibers, with an outermost layer of strands having anchoring strands permanently fastened to a sheath extruded onto the outermost layer. The anchoring strands can be formed of weldable or vulcanizable material. Alternatively, a polyurethane jacket surrounding each of the outermost layer strands can be used to permanently fasten the sheath.
摘要:
A composite abrasive filament, including at least one preformed core at least partially coated with a hardened, abrasive-filled thermoplastic elastomer, exhibits increased abrading life over previously known abrasive filaments. Also disclosed are methods of making such filaments and using such filaments in article form to abrade a variety of workpieces.

摘要:
Continuous filament apex fittings and methods of manufacture thereof to provide high-strength, low-weight fittings for use on cargo lifts and the like, and as replacements for metal clevises. The fittings are made by wet-winding one or more strands of continuous filaments into a loop, forming the loop into a basic clevis-like shape and curing the resin. The use of a flexible resin allows spreading of the clevis eyes for entry and removal of the item to be retained by the clevis without a separate clevis pin. Twisting of the loop one or more times along the major length of the loop prior to bending in the basic clevis shape creates an integrated clevis body having better load distribution across the cross-section thereof. Alternate methods of manufacture are disclosed.
摘要:
A high-strength, low weight, electromechanical cable is manufactured from aromatic polyamide multifilament yarns impregnated with a hydrolytically stable polyurethane resin to form a protective coating. The coating provides load adjustment from fiber to fiber, eliminates abrasive self-destruction of the fibers during flexing of the yarn under load, protects the fiber to some extent from ultraviolet radiation, aggressive chemicals or abrasive particles and makes it possible to preform the yarn. The coating comprises a reaction product of a liquid tetramethylene glycol, an aliphatic/cycloaliphatic diisocyanate and a diamine coupling-curing agent. The impregnated yarns are dried, twisted together, heated above the softening point of the resin to fuse the coatings of adjacent yarns, and then cooled to form a set twisted helix of the yarns.
摘要:
A rope and a method of constructing the rope. The rope may be of 12×12 braided construction and include a core for its length. The rope includes a plurality of primary strands, and each of the primary strands includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a high-friction material. The rope also includes a secondary strand surrounded by the plurality of primary strands. The secondary strand includes a plurality of fibers which may be made of a low-friction material.

A tether may include a core, a plurality of electrical conductors wound around the core, and a jacket surrounding the plurality of electrical conductors. The plurality of electrical conductors may include at least two groups of electrical conductors. Each group of electrical conductors of the at least two groups of electrical conductors may define a respective electrical path, where the respective electrical path is different from the electrical paths defined by other groups of electrical conductors of the at least two groups of the electrical conductors. Moreover, each group of electrical conductors of the at least two groups of electrical conductors is located around a respective portion of the core, such that a cross-section of each group of electrical conductors of the at least two or more electrical conductors defines a respective arc around the respective portion of the core.
