Definitions
- This invention relates to conveyor belts, and more particularly, concerns wide- aspect conveyor belts known as draper belts having improved durability and service life.
- Conveyor belts have been long been used in industry to rapidly move large amounts of materials. Conveyor belts are used to move logs, pulp, paper, sand, gravel, aggregate, food, mine ore, construction materials, packages, grain, and the products of various manufacturing processes.
- a farm implement known as a swather may be provided with an elongated cutter bar to cut grass, wheat, oats, barley, rice, canola or other grains.
- Conveyor belts known as draper belts are located immediately behind the cutter bar to convey the cut materials to crimp rollers or other processing subsystems, or to the ground.
- Figure l is a plan view of selected portions of a swather farm implement having a set of draper or material conveyor belts.
- Figure 2 is a side elevational view showing, in schematic form, portions of the swather farm implement shown in figure 1.
- Figure 3 is a perspective view of portions of the swather shown in figures 1 and 2.
- Figure 4 is a side elevational view, showing in schematic form, a portion of a draper belt constructed in accordance with the prior art.
- Figure 5 is a perspective view showing a portion of the prior art draper belt shown in figure 4 as it can appear after having been torn or damaged.
- Figure 6 is a perspective view showing a portion of the novel draper belt of the present invention.
- Figure 7 is an isometric view of the novel draper belt of the present invention shown in figure 6.
- Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the belt suggesting the belt plies and ply arrangements.
- FIG. 1 a swather farm implement 10 of the sort used to harvest hay.
- This swather (presumed to be moving in the direction of travel T as indicated by the arrows in figures 1 and 2) includes a cutter bar 12, behind which conveyor belts or draper canvases 14 and 15 receive the cut and fallen material from the cutter bar 12.
- These draper belts 14 and 15 convey the cut material in the direction indicated by the arrows M in figure 1 to a center portion of the machine 10 where the material is received and conveyed rearwardly by another belt 16.
- the material can be passed through crimping rollers 18 and is ejected from the machine as indicated in figure 2 or it can be discharged directly to the ground. Alternatively, the cut material may be conveyed to the either side of the header for discharge.
- cleats 20 are each provided with cleats 20 at regularly spaced intervals. These cleats are attached to the belt by any known means such as an adhesive which is spread entirely through and over the belt - cleat interface area. Alternatively, the cleats can be integrally molded with the belt. As indicated in figures 4 and 5, the prior art draper belts 30 are prone to damaging separation or tearing. This separation often occurs adjacent a prior art cleat 31 because the belt is subject to stress spikes at the cleat leading edge. Relatively large amounts of stress are imparted to the belt adjacent the cleat 31 as the belt and cleat travel over the belt-mounting roller 32 which has a constricted diameter.
- the novel belt of the present invention 40 is provided. As shown in figures 6,7, and 8, the novel belt comprises a first ply 41 formed of synthetic/natural rubber; a second ply 42 formed of synthetic/natural fiber woven fabric; and a third ply 43 formed of synthetic/natural rubber. This third ply 43 can be about twice as thick at the belt edges as it is at the belt mediate portion.
- a reinforcing fourth ply 44 formed of synthetic/natural fiber woven fabric and a fifth ply 45 formed of synthetic/natural rubber each extend span wise inwardly from the outer belt edges by an amount preferably about 15% on each side, for a total of both sides of about 20% to 40%, and preferably about one-third, of the belt span dimension.
- Belt tearing is discouraged by providing different material in the belt base ply and in the side reinforcement laminate.
- the synthetic/natural rubber is used to protect the synthetic/natural fiber woven fabric from damage arising from the material being conveyed, and from the roller or other structure of the equipment.
- the synthetic/natural rubber is also used to bond the plies of synthetic/natural fiber woven fabric.
- the novel cleat 51 is provided with a longitudinally extended base 53.
- this base 53 includes an intermediate portion 54 of gradually diminishing thickness, arid a terminal formation 55 extending from the intermediate portion 54, as particularly shown in figure 6.
- the cleat 51 can be formed of any suitable material such as styrene butadyrene or acrylo-nitrile material and includes a reinforcing fiberglass bar 56 , preferably of diamond shape as also suggested in figure 6.
- the novel belt 40 and its cleats 51 are shown in further detail in figures 7 and 8.
- the belt 40 includes a protective rubber base 41 and an overlying ply of protective rubber reinforcing material 42.
- This reinforcing material 42 can consist of a flexible tensile reinforcing material such as Nylon, Polyester, Cotton or other load bearing tensile member and may, if desired, include a substrate of filament or spun
- the upper layer of spun or filament fabric 42 extends the full width of the belt or draper.
- the fabric includes a great number of individual fibers of finite length which have been previously woven into a yarn, in known manner.
- the bottom substrate or ply 41 of the belt 40 includes a styrene butadyrene or acrylonitrile butadyrene material, or it
- 105 can include a suitable natural rubber.
