Patent number: 6261689Abstract: Fiber made of cellulose formate and fiber made of cellulose regenerated from cellulose formate. These fibers exhibit high tenacity and modulus properties, combined with improved values of elongation at break and of energy at break. Their elongation at break, in particular, is greater than 6%. Methods for producing these fibers. The fiber made of cellulose formate is obtained by spinning a liquid crystal solution of cellulose formate according to the so-called dry-jet-wet spinning method, the coagulation stage and the neutral washing stage which follow both being carried out in acetone. The fiber made of cellulose formate in a highly concentrated aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. The spinning and regeneration methods can be employed in line and continuously. Reinforcing assemblies based on such fibers. Articles reinforced by such fibers or assemblies, these reinforced articles being in particular tires.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2000Date of Patent: July 17, 2001Assignee: Michelin Recherche et Technique S.A.Inventors: Jean-Paul Meraldi, Jean-Claude Aubry, Vlastimil Cizek, Joël Ribiere, Andrë Schneider

Patent number: 6220635Abstract: A device 7 for the assembly of a straight spigot 1 and a flange 3 of two pipe elements 2, 4, containing an axial compression sealing elastomer gasket 8. The gasket has a support body 15 bearing against a counter flange 11 to apply pressure to the gasket. To the front of the body 15, and interdependent of it, is a support heel 16 for bearing against the flange. A radial exterior surface 22 of the body is designed to rest on a reaction surface 27, 27a of the counter flange, a radial interior surface 18 of the body is designed to rest on the radial exterior surface 20 of the straight spigot, and a forward surface 31 of the heel is designed to press against the flange to insure the waterproofness of the assembly. The body has at least one recess 26 for the expansion of the elastomer of the pressurized gasket, and the device is fitted with a ring 9 to limit the radial expansion of the heel toward the exterior.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 1998Date of Patent: April 24, 2001Assignee: Pont-a-Mousson SAInventors: Jean-Pierre Vitel, Noel Favier, Andre Schneider, Didier Lescot, Rene Bourgin

Patent number: 4302265Abstract: In a process of manufacturing a tire for vehicle wheels, an annular crown reinforcement is placed around the carcass of the tire. As the crown reinforcement there is used at least one elastically deformable annular net formed of two superimposed plies of wires at least the outside of which wires is formed of an elastic and weldable material. At the points of intersection these wires are welded to each other. The wires may also be in the form of a cable, metallic or otherwise, enclosed in a sheath of an elastic and weldable material.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 1980Date of Patent: November 24, 1981Assignee: Compagnie Generale des Etablissements MichelinInventors: Jean-Pierre Cesar, Andre Schneider

Patent number: 4154426Abstract: The valve closure element has an annular peripheral groove opening outwardly onto the periphery of the closure element. An annular sealing element has an annular heel portion disposed in the groove. The latter has an inner end face whose diameter is less than the inside diameter of the heel portion. The groove is defined laterally by two confronting annular faces of the closure element which have a substantially rectilinear generatrix and grip the heel portion so as to prevent relative movement of the heel portion and closure element.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 1978Date of Patent: May 15, 1979Assignee: Pont-a-Mousson S.A.Inventors: Jean Santy, Etienne Hochain, Andre Schneider
