Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include rope products, systems, processes, and related applications as disclosed herein.

Abstract: A knit fabric for use as a wrap around-sleeve having connectors along opposed edges. The fabric comprises a body portion knitted in a single layer of warp and weft yarns, a first edge portion of warp and weft yarns formed into spaced chains which secure a woven tape having hooks onto the knit fabric and a second edge knit to form raised loops. The hooks secured along the first edge are adapted to secure with the loops along the second edge securing the fabric edges forming the fabric into a wrap-around sleeve.

Abstract: A sleeve, which may be used to protect against bursting from hydraulic or other pressurized hoses and tubes, is disclosed. A method of installing such sleeves and a burst protection system are also disclosed.

Abstract: A webbing formed of synthetic yarns having an indicator for indicating exposure to ultraviolet light which results in strength loss of said synthetic yarns. The strength loss indicator comprises a strip extending along at least a portion of the webbing. The strip includes a phosphorescent material that produces a glow when exposed to ultraviolet light. The phosphorescent material is adapted to lose its ability to produce a glow over time exposure to ultraviolet light. Advantageously, the ability to glow fades at a rate correlated to the rate of loss of tensile strength of said synthetic yarns due to ultraviolet light exposure to indicate the condition of the webbing.

Abstract: A flexible woven jacket assembly is disclosed for encasing woven electrical transmission cables providing a flexible package while maintaining the conductors of stacked cables generally fixed in their relative positions and providing protection against abrasion and unwanted electromagnetic noises. The woven jacket assembly includes a woven cover fabric formed from aromatic polyamide fibers woven together to form a solid outer cover fabric and various shielding is disclosed for reducing unwanted electromagnetic noises.

Abstract: A woven electrical multi-conductor cable is disclosed having alternating longitudinal sections having generally flat and round configurations wherein the flat section affords binding of the conductors in fixed locations for convenient termination and uni-directional routing and wherein conductors are harnessed in the round section in random order for gimbal flexibility affording omni-directional routing of the cable in the round section.

Abstract: A woven multiconductor cable and method of making the same includes at least two longitudinal sections arranged in a side-by-side manner having a plurality of elongated conductors and a cut-line formed between the sections along which the filling strand of the woven cable may be cut along a desired length of the cable to separate the cable into individual sections which remain bound by alternate picks of the filling strand.

Abstract: A curved woven cable having a plurality of conductors and a method for constructing the same is disclosed wherein warp binder strands and a fill strand are interwoven with the conductors with at least one void area being formed in which the conductors are not interwoven with the warp strands and fill strands so that the cable may be curved. In a preferred method, the void area is formed by weaving the warp strands and fill strands with the conductors removed from the weave to form a weave portion floated outside of the conductors but which remains an important structural portion of the cable in maintaining its curved configuration.

Abstract: A woven electrical cable comprising a plurality of longitudinal conductor wires arranged in a substantially side-by-side manner for transmitting signals with a pair of longitudinal ground wires carried between adjacent conductor wires longitudinally coextending in a substantially parallel relationship with said conductor wires providing an associated ground wire on each side thereof for isolating a respective conductor wire. The conductor wires and ground wires are interwoven with insulating fiber strands to define a woven pattern with the associated ground wires being spaced from each respective conductor wire in the woven pattern so as to isolate and set the impedance of each conductor wire at a desired impedance value whereby the cable impedance may be controlled producing transmission of uniform signals with reduced cross-talk interference.

Abstract: A shielded cable is disclosed in which a plurality of elongated conductor wires are interwoven with a plurality of metallic fiber strands to define a woven cover for isolating the conductor wires from electromagnetic interference. The woven cover includes a plurality of fiber warp strands woven with a continuous fiber fill strand defining a plain weave of metallic fibers around the conductor wires to shield from external interference and a plurality of warp binder strands woven between adjacent conductor wires between alternate top and bottom runs of the fill strand to shield the conductor wires from internal interference.

Abstract: A device is disclosed for maintaining a conductor cable in an accordion fold configuration comprising a flexible clip member having opposing inclined sides terminating at a joint section receivable over the folds of the accordion cable with fastening means for securing and maintaining the apex of the fold within the clip member.

Abstract: A multi-conductor cable harness includes a trunk having a woven cover enclosing a plurality of conductor wires, and a series of reduced trunk cover segments extended therefrom. Branches of wires are broken out of the woven cover at junctions of adjacent reduced segments so as to be spaced laterally, longitudinally and vertically with respect to each other. The branch portions are accurately separated into distinct branches for providing programmed connections for the conductor wires.
