A string, rope, or strap with repetitively spaced openings/flexible eyelets from bifurcated braiding or weaving, or from cutting and sealing. The bifurcated openings are preferably created from a single rope or strap that is subsequently braided or weaved into two strings, ropes, or straps and then back into one. The frequent and periodic placement of these eyelets on the string, rope, or strap, allows the user to easily tie down items. The rope or strap is flexible enough to pull it in on its self, through its eyelets. The ends of the string, rope, or strap are finished into a hard tip.

A lifting member for an elevator system is disclosed, including a rope formed from a plurality of strands comprising liquid crystal polymer fibers, with the strands extending along a length of the lifting member. A first polymer coating is disposed on outer surfaces of the fibers or on outer surfaces of the strands. A second polymer coating disposed over the first polymer coating.

A rubber-reinforcing cord of the present invention is a rubber-reinforcing cord for reinforcing a rubber product. The rubber-reinforcing cord includes at least one strand. The strand includes at least one filament bundle and a coating provided to cover at least a portion of a surface of the filament bundle. The coating includes a rubber component and a crosslinking agent. The crosslinking agent includes two or more isocyanate compounds.

The invention refers to a rope (3) made of a textile fiber material, comprising a rope core (6) as well as a sheath (7) surrounding the rope core (6), wherein the rope (3) comprises at least one antistatic multifilament yarn (5) or antistatic monofilament that is located in the rope core (6), in the sheath (7), in an intermediate sheath (8) located between the rope core (6) and the sheath (7) and/or in a reinforcement located between the rope core (6) and the sheath (7),

wherein the antistatic monofilament or individual filaments (12) of the antistatic multifilament yarn (5) each comprise a conductive fiber core (13) sheathed with a non-conductive plastic sheath (14), and wherein the at least one antistatic multifilament yarn (5) or antistatic monofilament is twisted with a twine (16) or yarn of a different material, wherein the other material of the twine (16) or yarn mentioned is preferably UHMWPE or PES.

Provided is an elastomer reinforcement cord in which the problem of stress concentration at an interface between an elastomer and a metal cord is solved and the durability is thereby improved. The elastomer reinforcement cord includes metal filaments (1a) and (1b), and a polymer material (3) having a melting point or softening point of 80 C. to 160 C. The elastomer reinforcement cord has a core (11) and at least one sheath layer (12). In a region surrounded by a line connecting the centers of the metal filaments constituting the outermost sheath layer at a cross-section in a direction orthogonal to an axial direction after vulcanization, when a region occupied by other than the metal filaments is defined as a gap region, the polymer material is contained in this gap region, and a filling rate, which is a ratio of the area of the polymer material, is higher than 120%, taking the area of the gap region as 100%.

The present invention provides a lace fabric of a helical structure containing twisted optical fiber threads and a production method therefor. The lace fabric comprises light guiding threads, an external sleeve and braided ropes. The light guiding threads and the braided ropes are mutually twisted to form a whole body; the external sleeve is further sleeved outside the light guiding threads and the braided ropes; an LED light source module is arranged at the outer parts of the light guiding threads and the braided ropes; and a light-emitting end of the LED light source module and the light guiding threads are arranged opposite to each other. The present invention is safe, is low in cost, is conveniently applied to and combined into various daily supplies, is used in some spaces with little light, such as outdoors in the night and other places.

A steel strand (10) comprises a steel core wire (12). This steel core wire (12) is surrounded by steel layer wires (14) that are twisted around the steel core wire (12). The steel core wire (12) is covered with a thick corrosion resistant core coating (16) provided by strip cladding or by metal extrusion. The steel layer wires (14) are covered with a thin corrosion resistant layer coating (18) provided by a hot dip operation or by an electroplating or chemical plating process. The steel strand (10) is compacted so that said steel layer wires (14) have a non-circular cross-section and that the thick corrosion resistant core coating fills the interstices between the steel core wire (12) and the steel layer wires (14) in order to give the steel strand (10) an improved corrosion resistance and increased lifetime.
