METHOD OF FORMING ELASTIC FRICTION MEMBERS FOR CABLE VIBRATION ISOLATORS Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: method comes to alternately winding of cable onto bushings with flanges on end faces installed on mandrel with pitch along line of contour of elastic friction member. Cable is passed over bushings to form return loops, each formed by pair of crossing sections of cable placed between external and adjacent bushings and bow shaped section mating cross sections and passing over extreme bushing with subsequent removal of bushings together with wound on cable from mandrel. Forming of return loops in which each following section, in direction of winding, in pair of crossing sections, is arranged after foregoing, is alternated with forming of return loops in which following section, in direction of winding, is arranged before foregoing section. EFFECT: improved quality of vibration isolators. 1 dwg
