Description
~95S0 , ~AMINATED BODY, MORE ~SP~CIAL~Y
CONVEYOR ~LT OR DRIVING BE~T
The present invention relates to a strip or web-like pliable laminated body made of rubber or rubber~ e elastomeric material having metal rein-forcing plies, more especially conveyor belts or driving belts reinforced with steel wires, cables, braids or the like, embedded therein and extending substantially longitudinally therethrough.
The protection of the metal reinforcing plies in industrial rubber and plastics material articles against corrosive influences of the outer atmosphere is a problem which, under different provisions and conditions, repeatedly occurs and despite far-reaching expenditures in individual cases, does not always find satisfactory solutions.
A complete protection in the region of the elastomeric material surrounding the plies is not always generally obtainable in practice. It is difficult to attain a complete, continuous envelopment of the metal reinforcing plies over the whole of their surfaces by adhesion to the elastomeric material.
~urther, a source of mechanical damage to the cover layers or plates occurs by dynamic stress to the article, whereby penetrating dampness finds cracks, etc. through which to enter into the interior of the article. The corrosion damage created thereby is not, however, localised, but travels along the plies lll9S50 and, depending upon their nature, also continues over long distances, so that without any external effects initially being noticeable, extensive des-truction can occur. Particularly endangered in this respect are conveyor belts with embedded steel wires, cables, braids or strands as reinforcing plies. The plies which as a result of their structure are comprised of a plurality of individual wires of predetermined relative looseness and having a highly fissurised surface and cavities extending into the core, renders impossible the complete, enclosed envelopment aimed at as ideal with adhesive bonding to the elastomeric material by known techniques.
~here has been no lack of attempts to obtain a thorough "through bonding" of the rubber or plastics material in the core, for example, by prior impreg-nation of the steel wires with rubber solution, enveloping individual wires or braids with a plastics mixture, insertion of a plastics component when laying the wires, and others. All the endeavours in this direction have never achieved more than partial success.
It is an object of the present invention to protect the metal reinforcing plies in dynamically stressed rubber and plastics material articles, whilst maintaining their bonding with the material in which they are embedded 9 effectively against corrosive influences of the outer atmosphere, in ~11955~) first place against the penetration of moisture. Whilst this problem is of special importance to so-called "steel wire" conveyor belts and power transmission belts having steel wires or the like filamentary metal reinforcing plies, the present invention however, is not restricted exclusively thereto, but to a large extent is also applicable to other pliable laminated bodies used industrially.
The present invention provides a flexible laminated body made of an elastomeric material mixture and having at least one metal reinforcing ply embedded therein and extending 1~ substantially longitudinally therethrough, in which the or each metal reinforcing ply is adhesively bonded, at least along portions of its surface, with the surrounding elastomeric material mixture, and in which the or each metal reinforcing ply is coated with an anti-corrosion agent comprising a component of the elastomeric material mixture.
Preferably, the anti-corrosion agent comprises a processing aid and/or a plasticiser for the elastomeric material mixture. Depending upon the type and nature of the embedding material, the anti-corrosion agent may comprise a paraffin or naphtha-based mineral oil, a chloroparaffin or a liquid organic ester or ether compound, or the like.
. ~j In any case, the anti-corrosion agent preferably contains marked water-repellent components.
~iquid anti-corrosion agents for the surface treatment of freely suspended, or otherwise used in exposed arrangement, tension cables are known as such. Within the scope of the present problem, the use of such conventional anti-corrosion agents formed from an oil, wax or vaseline base were not considered because a serious impairment of the adhesive bond between the wires and the surrounding material was to be expected therefrom.
The solution provided by the present invention, taken against all practical experiences, concerning the preliminary treatment of the metal reinforcing plies leads to surprisingly favourable results, which showed a substantially reduced susceptibility to corrosion and a simultaneously improved dynamic proficiency of the plies, and which also subject to vigorous bending change stresses, e.g. of a steel wire conveyor belt was consistent during continuous testing. The reasoning behind the successful results obtained is probably due t~ the combination of individual effects which are important on their own; firstly, the elastomeric material mixture is able in its flow phase to penetrate deeply between the individual wires; secondly, also the finest remaining cavities are filled with a water-repellent agent at the same time as a lubricant which 5~0 stops the direct metal sliding friction between the wires; and finally the covering endlessly enclosing the steel wires, regardless of their surface shape, provides a reliable protection against moisture penetrating through fissures and other damage points, into the embedding material. The protective effect provided already before the processing of the plies is to be appreciated as an additional advantage.
The invention provides for perfect compatab-ility between the anti-corrosion agent and the composition of the elastomeric material mixtures, so that it also absorbed at the intended bonding points ¦
by the mixtures. Its applicability therefore does not require any changes in the conventional mixture structure.
The present invention will be further illustrated, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which the single ~igure shows a cross-section through a portion of a steel wire conveyor belt.
The conveyor belt shown is built up in known manner ~rom an upper and a lower cover plate 1 and
