    [001] This application claims priority benefit over a US patent application previously filed under number 12 / 889,981. The order lists the same inventors. Technical Field
    [002] This invention relates to the field of termination of synthetic cables. More specifically, the invention comprises a method of securing a multifilament cable that has at least a partially non-parallel construction. State of art
    [003] Synthetic rope / cable materials have become much more common in recent years. These materials have the potential to replace many traditional wire rope systems. However, the unique attributes of synthetic materials can - in some circumstances - make direct replacement difficult. The smallest monolithic component of a synthetic cable will be referred to as a filament. The bundles of said filaments will be referred to as a "thread". The wires are then brought together to form a cable. In some cases the wires will be grouped into “groups of wires”, and these groups of wires will then be brought together to form a cable.
    [004] A synthetic filament is analogous to a single wire of a bundled steel cable. However, compared to the relatively rigid steel wire used in a steel cable, the synthetic filament: (1) is significantly smaller in diameter, (2) is significantly less rigid (showing very little resistance to buckling), (3 ) has a much lower friction coefficient.
    [005] These differences become particularly important when it comes to a multifilament cable with a non-parallel construction. A state of the art account will illustrate this point. Figure 1 shows a state-of-the-art cable 10 formed by six external wires 12 helically twisted around a single rope core. This is a partially non-parallel construction. The single rope core extends parallel to the central axis of the cable. However, the six outer wires form a helical path and are clearly not parallel to the central axis. Such a cable can generally be referred to as having a "non-parallel" construction. A non-parallel cable can have some parallel components (such as a central wire or bundle of wires and possible one or more parallel outer layers). However, a load-bearing portion of its total mass is formed by non-parallel wires, which can take the form of a propeller (as shown in figure 3), a braid, or any other suitable configuration.
    [006] Those skilled in the art will know that such a construction as shown in figure 1 does not distribute the loads evenly across all the wires when the cable is stretched by the load. Helical winding in the outer layer will produce a “unwinding” force as all the threads try to stretch under the stress. This phenomenon is even more complex in three and four layer non-parallel cables. In such cables, helical layers generally overlap with alternating torsion directions. Shorter strands tend to receive a relatively greater tensile load than longer strands.
    [007] Individual steel wires in a traditional steel cable as shown in figure 1 have relatively high frictional forces between wires. Such forces tend to prevent the wires from sliding over each other. Thus, a steel cable tends to maintain a stable cross section and tends to distribute tensile loads reasonably evenly. In addition, the wires do not tend to move longitudinally (along the direction of the cable wire).
    [008] Figures 2 and 3 illustrate a typical construction of a thread made of synthetic filaments. In figure 2, each yarn 12 can include a large number of filaments 16 wrapped by an outer wrap 14. In other cases, these filaments will be twisted or braided without said outer wrap.
    [009] In figure 3, groups of seven threads 12 are twisted to form seven groups of threads 20. These groups of threads are then arranged and held in position by means of a much larger outer wrap 14 (which can be an extruded polymer, an outer layer of twisted wires, or even a single-wire “hawk” helically wound around the entire cable). Again, a wrap may or may not be used. If yarn groups are twisted or woven, then the outer wrap can be omitted. The reader will notice that each yarn group 20 is in fact parallel (the central axis of each yarn group extends parallel to the central axis of the cable as a whole). However, within each yarn group most individual yarns are not parallel).
    [0010] Cutting, handling and securing such cable systems has presented new challenges. Even a relatively large cable 10 as shown in Figure 3 has little compression stiffness along the direction of the central axis. This means that individual filaments and threads can easily slide longitudinally over each other. If the method of cutting and capping does not take this into account, the finished cable may have great variations in the length of the filaments. This problem obviously means that the shorter filaments will receive a greater load and will fail early.
    [0011] Figure 4 shows a length of the cable 10 stored in a coil 22 (the coil is usually formed by wrapping the cable). The cable is usually stretched for processing. Unrestricted folds that occur in this process may cause unwanted displacement of the filaments. Thus, it is very important to constrict the cable so that these displacements are reduced or eliminated.
    [0012] Problems also arise when a cut end is retained in a cap in order to create a finish. If some filaments are displaced longitudinally during the process that leads to the addition of the cap, then the resulting cable will not have a uniform load distribution in its filaments.
    [0013] It would therefore be advantageous to provide a method of cutting and finishing a non-parallel multifilament cable that would reduce the problems inherent in the use of synthetic filament cables / ropes. The present invention reveals just such a method. Summary of the Invention
    [0014] The present invention comprises a method for stretching, constraining, cutting and capping a non-parallel multifilament cable. The cable filaments are aligned. A connecting element is then applied to the cable to maintain alignment. Then, the cable is cut to a desired length. Next, each wire or group of wires is placed in an individual cap. Each individual cap is connected - directly or via intermediate devices - to a collector.
    [0015] In this way, the collector acts as a unified termination for the cable as a whole. However, each strand or group of strands was cut, positioned and retained in a relatively small cap. The relatively large cable is then cut into smaller components so that a consistent and repetitive termination technique known for its use on small cables can be applied to create a termination for a much larger cable.

    Description of Execution Modes
    [0016] Ensuring proper filament alignment during the cutting and capping stages is an important part of the inventive process. With reference to figure 4, the reader will remember that most synthetic cables are stored wrapped in a coil 22. A portion of the cable must be stretched before being cut and cast off.
    [0017] The individual filaments and threads of the synthetic cable have little stiffness and friction between filaments making it difficult to prevent filaments from sliding longitudinally when the cable is handled. As stated earlier, the longitudinal sliding of some filaments results in uneven lengths of filaments in the finished cable. Some cables have a wrap that encapsulates them which tends to cause an internal compression force. The wrap can be of a totally different material - such as an extruded thermoplastic - or it can be a braid or winding of additional filaments of the same type used in balancing the cable. The internal compression force tends to increase the friction between filaments and thus avoid longitudinal sliding.
    [0018] Other cables do not have compression wraps. In such cases, it is important to provide some component that creates the internal compression force (and even some covered cables require additional internal compression force). This component is generally referred to as a “connecting element”. Figure 5 shows a cable 10 with the addition of a connecting element. The cable was encased by the helical cover 24 to provide the desired internal compression force. The cable can then be cut through this helical cover. The helical cover is held in place after the cut is made to maintain the desired alignment of the filaments until the cap is attached to the end of the cable. Said cover may remain in place for longer or, in some cases, be removed. The reader should note that the helical cover may or may not be applied over the entire length of the cable.
    [0019] Figure 6 illustrates in a simple way another way for adding the desired connecting element. Suitable hardware is used to stretch the cable and keep the filament in line. The joining element 26 is then added to maintain the desired alignment in the straight section 30. The joining element is shown as a pair of locking blocks, however, this drawing represents only a conceptual illustration. The joining element could be a pair of locking members, but it could also be an in-place molded wrap, a piece of tube shaped by heating, a bandage, a falcon, or similar item. Whatever the shape, the connecting element 26 securely attaches to the cable to maintain the desired alignment of the filaments. The curved section 28 contains longitudinal displacements of filaments. However, it is at a sufficient distance from the joining element and the cutting plane 32 so that it does not cause problems. Additional tension can be applied to the cable before cutting.
    [0020] Figure 7 shows a cutting operation using two joining elements 26, which can be placed at any desired point on the cable. For example, the joining elements can take the form of two pieces of tubes molded by heating, which are arranged on the cable and then heated to produce the desired contraction. When in place, the two joining elements can be separated from each other to exert extra tension on the straight section portion 30 before the cut is made in the cutting plane 32.
    [0021] Figure 8 shows the cut end of a cable. The connecting element 26 was placed to maintain the desired alignment of the filaments. The cut has already been made. The positioning of the joining element in the middle of the straight portion 30 keeps the threads in the desired alignment.
    [0022] After the cable has been cut to the desired length, it is important to maintain the alignment of the filaments during the process of adding a cap at the end of the cable. The term “cap” must be interpreted comprehensively in order to mean any type of device attached to a cable or cable wire. A cap is usually attached to the end of a cable as a whole in order to transmit a tensile load to the cable. However, endings can be placed at points on the cable other than the end and can be used for purposes other than load transmission. In the present invention, multiple individual ends will be positioned on the wires or groups of wires on the cable.
    [0023] Figure 9 shows a cable 10 composed of six wires surrounding a central wire. According to the method of the invention, an individual cap will be placed at the end of each wire. For this, the wires must be separated so that there is space to allow the operation of placing the ends. The spacing of the wires tends to cause misalignment of the wires. In order to minimize this problem, a retaining connector 34 is also positioned on the cable. Said element is shown conceptually in the form of a block, but as previously described, it can have different shapes (a tube molded by heating, a bandage, etc.).
    [0024] The joining element for retention tends to compress and retain the joined threads so that when the straight section is disunited so that ends are added, the filaments will not tend to slide into each other. The retaining fastener may simply be a group of two or more pieces joined together and placed around the cable. Another approach is to wrap the cable with a temporary mold and inject a thermoplastic resin into the mold to mold the bonding element for on-site retention. Reactive cross-linked polymers can be used, as well as compounds activated by air or light. The term “for retention” should be interpreted broadly in order to encompass any element that is attached to the cable and that provides the desired compression force.
    [0025] Figure 10 the same cable assembly after the wires have been separated to create the dispersed section 36. The reader will notice how the retaining fastener 34 retains the cable in a compressed and constricted bundle as far as the action of dispersion manages to reach along the cable.
    [0026] After each wire has been dispersed, a cap is placed on its end. Figures 11 to 14 show examples of types of finishes that can be formed. Figure 11 shows an individual yarn 12 (formed by several twisted filaments). A 38-shaped tailpiece is placed at the end of this wire to form a simple hold. A 38-shaped cap is often created by placing a cap with a tapered inner passage around the end of the cable and injecting a crosslinked resin into the inner passage. The resin hardens, thus retaining the filaments in the internal passage and fixing the cap on the cable.
    [0027] Figure 19 shows an example of this type of finish. The cap 66 is provided with the inner tapered passage 50. The thread 12 is inserted into this inner tapered passage and the filaments near the end of the wire are preferably separated. A resin to shape a pot is injected through the tapered passage. When the resin hardens, the filaments are retained within the tapered passage 50. The filaments were in fact “molded” in a conical mold cap 46. The conical mold cap is mechanically maintained within the cap 66 by mechanical interference. Details about the molding process of the pot and cap can be found in US patent number 7,237,336 held by Campbell (2207), which is hereby incorporated by reference.
    [0028] Figure 12 shows a completely different type of finish. The wire 12 shown in figure 12 is a braided wire. The cap takes the form of a broken slit 40, which is formed by separating some filaments, forming a loop, and then braiding the filaments forming the main body of the wire.
    [0029] Figure 13 shows a matrix cap with a threaded extension 42 attached to it. A threaded extension can be a convenient component as it allows force to be applied in an adjustable way to the individual wire 12.
    [0030] Figure 14 shows yet another type of cap - a spherical mold cap 44. This cap can be a solid object with an internal passage that is hollow to connect the object to the wire. On the other hand, a removable mold can be positioned at the end of the wire and the ball can be molded in place using a high strength epoxy (preferably including a reinforcing fiber).
    [0031] The examples in figures 12 to 14 are three examples among many other possibilities. The present inventive method can be used with virtually an endless variety of finish types.
    [0032] After each wire or group of wires is retained within a termination, the terminations must be joined to form a unified joining point for the cable as a whole. The component used to join and fix the individual ends is called a "collector". The collector can be a single part or a complex component of multiple parts. The term includes modes of execution that use interwoven components and hybrid designs where one piece can finish several threads and other pieces can finish only a single thread.
    [0033] Figures 15 and 16 illustrate an example that uses a multi-piece collector. The left view in figure 15 shows the parts of the collector before assembled. Each wire 12 is capped with a tapered mold cap 46. The tapered mold cap in this specific example is a tapered plug of reinforced epoxy that is molded in place at the end of the cable.
    [0034] Three portions of the end cap 48 are used - one for each wire. Through each portion of the cap block 48 there is a tapered passage 50. This tapered passage is designed to enclose and secure a conical shaped cap 46.
    [0035] Another way to assemble such a device is to separate the three wires 12, then pass a portion of the cap block 48 through each wire (interlacing the wire through the tapered passage in each portion of the cap block so that the cut end of each wire protrudes beyond its portion of the finishing block). A conical mold cap 46 is then formed at the end of each wire. Each portion of the cap block is then removed from the corresponding conical mold cap - as shown in the left view in figure 15.
    [0036] Fixing elements are preferably provided to hold the three portions of the locking block 48 together. Three fasteners 52 are provided. Each portion of the cap block has a through hole 56 - including a concave to accommodate the head of the fastener 52 - and a threaded receiver 54. The fasteners are threaded to join the three pieces - as shown in the right view of figure 15. After being joined, the three pieces are called assembled block 58. The assembled block is a type of “collector”. It gathers and unifies the individual ends in the threads.
    [0037] Figure 16 shows an enlarged view of the assembly shown in figure 15. The reader can more easily see the geometry of the fasteners 52, the through holes 56, and the threaded receiver 54. Obviously, several other types of devices can be used to join and fix multiple parts without the need for additional fasteners.
    [0038] An alternative mode of execution to figures 15 and 16 would be to use the portions of the block of cap 48 directly as caps. In this embodiment, the filaments of a specific yarn 12 are placed within a tapered passage 50 within a specific portion of the tailpiece block 48. A pot forming compound is injected into the tapered passage and allowed to harden, thereby retaining the filaments of that specific yarn in the specific cap block.
    [0039] Figure 17 shows a different type of collector. The right view shows a cable 10 with three individual wires. A spherical mold cap is arranged at the end of each individual wire. A collector 59 is provided. In the central view of figure 17, the reader will see that the collector includes a spherical socket 62 with an intersecting slot 64. The collector includes three of these spherical sockets spaced apart to correspond to the three spherical mold ends 444.
    [0040] The user can place the three spherical mold ends in the three spherical sockets to form the set shown in the left view. The geometry of the spherical sockets is preferably selected so that when the assembly is subjected to tension, the three spherical mold ends are pulled inwards towards the center of the collector 59 - making the assembly remain assembled. The collector and ends are preferably assembled so that each individual end is aligned with the individual wire to which it is attached. The geometry shown in figure 17 is a way to achieve this goal.
    [0041] Figure 18 shows a simple cable 10 formed by two twisted wires. A retaining connector 34 is provided. Two ends 66 are added - one for the end of each wire, which can then be separated by an angle α before being placed in a collector. Multiple wires can be provided with angular spacing in one or two planes. By adding an individual cap to each individual wire (or group of wires), alignment can be maintained between the cap and the wire. This is an important feature of the present invention that becomes particularly significant when it comes to larger cables.
    [0042] In other cases, portions of the individual ends themselves can be used to guide the wire from its original path to alignment with the portion of the wire retained within the finish. Figure 19 shows this characteristic. End 66 includes a slightly curved section in the region where the wire exits the end.
    [0043] In some cases, the wires inside a cable can be pruned with different lengths during the process of adding ends. Figure 20 shows two views of a cable 10 with a retaining fastener 34 attached to it. The wires were split in the right view. When the wires are cut, they can be cut to different lengths. Figure 21 shows a configuration with varying lengths after six ends 66 have been added to the wires. The use of wires of varying lengths allows more flexibility in the design of an appropriate collector.
    [0044] Figure 22 shows a more complex cable 10 in which three central wires 70 are surrounded by eight external wires 68. All are retained by a retaining fastener 34. The three central wires 70 are then retained in a central block 72 (which is part of a larger collector) retaining the three conical mold ends 46 in the central block (as previously mentioned, the central block itself could serve as a single border fixing the three central wires 70 directly inside the central block). The eight ends 66 on the eight outer wires 68 can then be attached separately.
    [0045] Figure 23 shows a variation on this theme. The central threads are arranged within a central portion 74 (including a wrap around the central threads). Said central wires are retained in a central block 72. An outer ring 76 is connected to the central block 72. A plurality of external wires 68 (only one of which is shown in the view) are then connected to the outer ring 76 - preferably using a component of adjustable length fixing. This example uses a ball at the end of the threaded connector, which is captured inside a socket on the outer ring 76. The use of the ball and socket allows good alignment between the cap 66 and the outer wire 68. In this version, the cap 66 is connected to outer wire 68. A threaded connector 78 attaches to outer ring 76. The threaded connector allows the load exerted on a specific wire to be individually adjustable.
    [0046] Figure 24 shows the same system with all external wires on display. Each outer wire 68 is connected to outer ring 76 by means of an adjustable length fastener. Those skilled in the art know that when the cable system of figure 24 is subjected to tension, a torsional force will be created between the outer ring 76 and the central block 72. Thus, it is preferable to provide a connection for limiting rotation between the outer ring and the central block. Such a configuration can take many forms, including making the two components using only a single piece of material.
    [0047] Figure 25 shows the same system after the load slot 80 has been threaded on the central block 72. The reader will thus realize that the entire collector assembly can unify the numerous ends in numerous wires in a single fixation point.
    [0048] Figure 26 shows an alternative execution mode. Alternative connectors 82 provide a fixation on the axis between the ends 66 and the outer ring 76. This allows lateral flexing of the external wires as the cable is subjected to tension cycles. Those skilled in the art will note that many other fixed-length or adjustable-length clamping mechanisms can be used.
    [0049] Figure 27 shows yet another mode of execution. A distal guide 88 is provided a short distance from the outer ring 76. The distal guide straightens the path of the outer wires 68 so that they are straight for some time before being attached to the outer ring. For this purpose, the distal guide contains a wire guide channel 86 for each external wire 68. The wire guide channel changes the course of the external wires from a helical path to a straight path. The distal guide is an example of a wire guide, which can be considered in general any element that changes the path of the wire when it leaves the cable and aligns it more closely with the desired orientation of the cap. The wire guide in question is of the “distal” type because it is separated from the outer ring 76. However, in other modes of execution it may not be separated at all.
    [0050] The central portion of the cable is contained within a rigid jacket passing between the distal guide and the outer ring. Figure 28 shows this set from another perspective. The reader will notice that the distal guide 88 is provided in two pieces so that it can be arranged on the central wires of the cable. The rigid casing between the distal guide and the outer ring is also preferably provided in two or more pieces so that it can be more easily assembled.
    [0051] Figures 29 to 31 illustrate another type of collector. Figure 29 shows an elevated view of a section. A three-wire cable 12 is inserted into a retaining element 34. The free ends of the wires are placed within pot-shaped ends 38. The pot-shaped ends are then retained within the collector 58.
    [0052] The wire guide 90 takes a different shape in this execution mode, being simply a collar wrapped around the cable and provided with a curved passage 92. The curved passage guides the transition of the wires into the collector. The wire guide may or may not be attached to the collector.
    [0053] Figure 30 shows yet another view of the same set. Collector 58 includes three cylindrical pockets equally spaced around its perimeter. A pot-shaped cap 38 is pressed into each of these cylindrical pockets 94. Figure 31 shows the same set from another perspective. The reader will notice that each cylindrical pocket has a corresponding slot 96 that allows a thread to pass. The wire guide 90 is preferably formed of two halves joined along the seam 98 so that it can be connected to the cable more easily.
    [0054] The reader will thus understand how the inventive method proposed here allows a synthetic multifilament cable (with a non-parallel construction) to be subdivided into individual wires or groups of wires with ends being added to each wire. The multiple ends are then collected in a collector. It is clear that in some of the revealed modes of operation, the functions of the individual caps and the collector are performed by a single element. For example, in the embodiment of figure 16, the block portion of cap 48 can serve as both a cap and a collector portion.
    [0055] Although the description above is quite detailed, it should not be interpreted as restricting the scope of the invention, but rather as illustrating the preferred modes of implementation of the invention. For example, even though the execution modes described in detail retain the threads in the ends primarily using a pot-shaped finish, a simple mechanical fixation (such as a “cone”) could be used to retain the filaments of a specific thread in a determined finish. Thus, the language used in the claims will define the invention instead of the specific embodiments provided.
