A fabric belt on which, when used as intended in a machine for producing spunbonded fabric webs, such spunbonded fabric webs are formed and transported. The belt has longitudinal threads and transverse threads that bind with the longitudinal threads. The threads are formed substantially of a polymer material and some of the longitudinal and/or transverse threads include electrically conductive material. The longitudinal threads form, on the web material contact side, convex longitudinal thread offsets with a knuckle, and the transverse threads have first transverse threads which form, on the web material contact side, first transverse thread offsets with a knuckle. A height difference between the knuckle crowns of at least some of the convex longitudinal thread offsets and the knuckle crowns of at least some of the first convex transverse thread offsets on the web material contact side is less than 220 m or even less than 150 m.

The present invention relates to a helical toothed belt including: a back portion; a tension member buried in the back portion; and a plurality of tooth portions arranged at a predetermined interval along a belt longitudinal direction on one surface of the back portion, in which the plurality of tooth portions have a tooth pitch of 1.5 mm or more and less than 2.0 mm, the back portion has a thickness of 0.4 mm or more and 1.2 mm or less, the tension member is formed of a twisted cord containing a high-strength glass fiber or a carbon fiber, and the ratio of the total value of an interval between the tension members adjacent to each other to the belt width is 20% or more and 60% or less.

A method of forming a belt for suspending and/or driving an elevator car includes arraying a plurality of tension elements longitudinally along a belt and interlacing a plurality of warp fibers and a plurality of weft fibers with the plurality of tension elements to form a composite belt structure. A coating is applied to at least partially encapsulate the composite belt structure. The coating includes a base coating material and at least one additive mixed with the base coating material to improve an operational characteristic of the belt.

A deflection member that includes a reinforcing member and a plurality of tiles fastened to the reinforcing member.

An industrial fabric includes upper surface side warps, lower side warps, wefts and an auxiliary yarn. Each of the lower side warps is arranged below each of the upper side warps respectively. The upper side warps and the lower side warps are woven by the wefts. The auxiliary yarn is disposed between the upper side warps and the lower side warps without being woven by the upper side warps and the lower side warps. The auxiliary yarn is disposed between two of the adjacently disposed wefts.

A clothing, in particular a press belt for a machine for producing or processing a fibrous material web, includes a paper side, a backing side, a base fabric and at least one additional structure. The at least one additional structure is formed of or includes a layer of polymer foam which provides the paper side of the clothing. A method for producing a clothing, and a machine for producing a fibrous material web, are also provided.

A woven webbing for use in a tiedown or sling for lifting, restraint or other material handling functions. The woven webbing includes a central portion and tubular edges. The central portion has a top surface and an oppositely facing bottom surface. The top surface and bottom surface may be woven in a first pattern for strength and abrasion resistance while remaining flexible. The tubular edges extend from either side of the central portion. The tubular edges may be woven in a second pattern to improve the cut resistance of the tubular edges. The tubular edges have interior cavities which may include twisted floating yarn extending therethrough to enhance the cut resistance of the tubular edges. The tubular edges may include a high modulus yarn material which changes the orientation of the yarn material away from the axial direction of tension when a load is applied to the webbing.

The invention relates to a flexible belt comprising a woven fabric. The woven fabric has approximately parallel straight sides and ends, where the ends are releasably or permanently securable to one another to form an endless loop. The woven fabric contains a set of warp yarns and a set of weft yarns. The set of warp warps are in a warp yarn direction and the warp yarns comprise monofilament warp yarns having a first denier. The set of weft yarns are in a weft yarn direction which is approximately perpendicular to the warp yarn direction. The weft yarns are in a repeating pattern of at least one monofilament weft yarn followed by at least one multifilament weft yarn. The monofilament weft yarn has a linear mass density of at least about 2,500 denier and at least about 5 times the denier of the monofilament warp yarn.

Disclosed are papermaking fabrics comprising a plurality of structuring elements disposed on a carrier structure. The fabrics are useful in the manufacture of tissue products having good caliper and smoothness without negatively affecting drying of the tissue product. The fabrics have structuring elements having a polygonal cross-sectional shape and a perimeter less than 3.6 mm, such as from about 1.4 to 3.6 mm. In certain instances the structuring elements may cover more than about 28 percent, such as from about 28 to about 35 percent, of the surface area of the web contacting surface of the carrier structure without adversely affecting drying. In this manner the amount of the nascent web that contacts the structuring elements and is molded into a smooth surface is maximized without exacerbating the negative affect to drying commonly associated with occluding a large portion of the surface area of the papermaking fabric.

A prepreg according to the invention comprises: a raw yarn treated by a sizing agent; a thermoplastic resin material; and a thermosetting resin material; wherein the thermoplastic resin material coats at least a part of an outer peripheral surface of the raw yarn, wherein the thermosetting resin material coats at least a part of an outer peripheral surface of the thermoplastic resin material, or wherein the thermosetting resin material coats at least a part of the outer peripheral surface of the raw yarn, wherein the thermoplastic resin material coats at least a part of an outer peripheral surface of the thermosetting resin material, and wherein the thermosetting resin material is polymerized by heating.
