  • Publication number: 20090071587
    Abstract: An improved tire cord fabric is provided that has a main portion and a tabby. The tire cord fabric is comprised of warp cords oriented in the longitudinal direction and weft yarns oriented in the lateral direction. The warp cords are used in reinforcing pneumatic tires. In the tabby, the weft yarns have an increased count per inch versus the count per inch of the weft yarns in the main portion of the fabric. The weft yarns in the tabby are preshrunk prior to weaving of the tire cord fabric.

  • Patent number: 6824615
    Abstract: A resonant cavity frequency sensing device is used to sense the moisture content of a substrate. Data obtained by the sensing device can be used in a feedback loop in the apparatus employing the device, to help control the operation of the apparatus in order to obtain consistent results. The sensor may employ one pair of sensing plates or an array of pairs of sensing plates to obtain data from each part of the substrate. In an illustrated embodiment, the device is used to monitor and control dip uptake in a fabric adhesive dipping process.
