  • Publication number: 20060228961
    Abstract: A woven belt for a corrugated board machine has a first woven layer made of first warp threads and first weft threads and adapted to take up tensile forces acting on the woven belt. A second woven layer made of second warp threads and second weft threads forms a woven top layer covering the first woven layer. The woven top layer forms a paper side of the woven belt on which paper side corrugated board is supported. The woven top layer is vapor permeable to allow removal of moisture from the paper side. The woven top layer has at least one strip of a friction-increasing material, wherein the at least one strip is narrower in a direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the woven belt than a width of the woven belt.

  • Patent number: 6899142
    Abstract: A fabric belt for a corrugated cardboard gluing machine has a first fabric layer for receiving tensile forces. The first fabric layer is made of warp threads and weft threads. A second fabric layer covers the first fabric layer and is made of warp threads and weft threads. The second fabric layer forms an upper paper side of the fabric belt. The first and second fabric layers are interwoven by binding threads. The fabric belt has drainage channels penetrating the fabric belt at least partially, wherein the drainage channels remove moisture from the second fabric layer and the upper paper side.

  • Patent number: 5785621
    Abstract: A woven belt for a corrugated cardboard machine has a central woven layer for absorbing tensile stress which consists of first warp and weft threads. The first warp threads cross at least two first weft threads on one side of the central layer before crossing over to the other side. A woven top layer is connected to the upper side and a woven bottom layer is connected to the bottom side of the central layer. The top layer provides a support surface for the cardboard and has second warp and weft threads. The second warp threads cross at least two second weft threads on one side of the top layer before crossing over to the other side. The bottom layer has third warp and weft threads. The third warp threads cross one third weft thread on an inner side of the bottom layer before crossing over to the outer side. The third warp threads cross at least three third weft threads on the outer side of the bottom layer before crossing over to the inner side.
