Abstract: A vehicle track intended to be driven over spaced toothed drive wheels, preferably of rubber, and be supported on supporting wheels, comprising longitudinal inner and outer traction members formed of the same piece of an elastomer material and extending in parallel with each other, which traction members between themselves have tooth spaces for cooperation with the drive wheels, and transverse carrying members located on the outside of the track and connecting the longitudinal traction members, which longitudinal traction members and carrying members have cast-in reinforcements, and the reinforcement of each carrying member consists of a beam of metal cast-in in the carrying member and having substantially U-shaped cross-section, the legs of which face outward and have a shorter height than the carrying member, and guide tongues connected to the carrying members and located on the inside of the track are provided for cooperation with the supporting wheels of the vehicle, characterized in that the guide tongue

Abstract: This invention relates to a wear metals lining of rubber for rotatable drums with several adjacent sections of separate lifting members, and separate lining plates arranged between these, the lifting members being pressed against the wall of the drum by means of rails secured by mounting bolts, retaining adjacent lining plates and being provided with slits, in which the rails are placed. In order to be able to use soft rubber in such a lining, i.e. a rubber with a hardness below 60 Shore, in the lifting members without giving up the demand on an elastic attachment at least the parts of the slit (4), on which the mounting rail (7) bears, are provided with a fabric (11) taking up the tensile forces arising when the lifting members (3) are exposed to a lateral load.

Abstract: This invention relates to a wear lining containing rubber e.g. for pumps intended for handling wearing material such as dredger and mud pumps of the centrifugal type, which wear lining comprises a layer of wear rubber rigidly combined with a support plate. One of the problems with wear linings of such pumps is that already in manufacture they must be given a shape corresponding to the shape of the shell of the pump housing in which they are to be mounted, and must be manufactured in sections to permit mounting in their pump housing. For this a great number of moulds is required, which involves great costs of manufacture, and as the known wear linings for pumps are manufactured in sections, mounting thereof will be difficult and time-consuming, at the same time as there will be a joint between two sections, which has turned out to be a part of the wear lining that is exposed to wear.

Abstract: This invention relates to an attachment device for wear rubber elements in barking drums and has as its object simplifying the mounting of such elements by avoiding unnecessary drilling of mounting holes.According to the invention the wear rubber elements are retained at their longitudinal edge sections by mounting bars, for the anchoring of which in the shell plate of the drum bark outlets are utilized.

Abstract: A cross-country vehicle includes a wheel provided with an outer layer of resilient material having a plurality of circumferentially disposed protruding teeth. A track is provided about the wheel and has a plurality of transverse bars connected to one another and separated by gaps which engage the protruding teeth. Studs moveably mounted in radial holes through at least some of the teeth of the wheel project downwardly to extend through the gaps and into engagement with the ground.

Abstract: Wear liners in abrasive material handling apparatus or equipment in positions to receive the impact and scouring by hard materials such as sharp rocks, broken glass, tin cans, metal pieces and other hard particles at all impact angles including acute angles and at high velocities. Such liners comprise a layer of vulcanized rubber or equivalent material having an impact receiving surface that is smooth and continuous, with one or more sheets of abrasive resistant wire mesh embedded in said layer parallel with and spaced below said surface, and with said sheets, when more than one, spaced from each other and parallel. The rubber or rubber-like material is substantially inseparably vulcanized or bonded to the wires of said sheet or sheets and is of approximately 60 Shore durometer hardness.

Abstract: A flow device for interaction with a fluid stream to control its direction comprises a conduit system which includes a cavity in communication with an inlet for the stream and at least one outlet for the stream. Controllable flexible means co-operative with the cavity are provided for interaction with the stream and function to deflect the stream in one direction or the other from its entering direction as it leaves the cavity. The fluid stream can be selectively directed into one or the other of two separate outlets, or a single outlet can be combined with a vortex arrangement so as to enable one to select the direction of rotation of the stream about the axis of the vortex.

Abstract: A method of lining a steel wall surface with an elastomeric material which involves applying a layer of elastomeric material against said steel wall surface and holding said elastomeric material against said steel surface with a plurality of bolts and washers, said bolts being butt welded to said steel surface.

Abstract: A device for producing a seal between movable and/or stationary parts, such as a piston and a cylinder particularly under conditions of high fluid pressures, comprises a sealing ring having an O-ring configuration and fabricated of a material such as rubber. A support ring is disposed on at least one side of the sealing ring in coaxial relation thereto, the support ring being fabricated of a thermoplastic polymer material having a hardness greater than the sealing ring and being formed with a concavely curved contact surface facing and engaging the sealing ring. A guide ring having an L-shaped cross section is disposed outside of the support ring relative to the sealing ring in coaxial relation to the sealing and support rings, and consists of a polymer material having a hardness greater than the thermoplastic polymer of the support ring.
