A reinforced conveyor belt has a plurality of fabric plies. One of the plies is an interwoven ply comprised of two layers of weft cords and a plurality of warp cords interweaving through the two layers of weft cords. Each warp cord has the following repeating weave pattern of passing over at least two but not more than five weft cords in the first weft layers, passing between the two weft layers for a distance of at least two weft cords, and passing under at least two but nor more than five weft cords in the second weft layer.

A flexible hose construction with kink, crush, and burst resistance. The hose is constructed of a tubular member and a reinforcement strip at least partially embedded in the tubular member. The reinforcement strip is wound in a helical pattern encircling a central lumen of the tubular body. The material forming the reinforcement strip has a greater initial modulus than the material forming the tubular member.

A pneumatic tire has a pair of shoulder portions extending between a tread portion and opposed sidewall portions. The tire has at least one ply of a composite fabric. The composite fabric has three layers with the middle layer comprising a plurality of straight warp yarns wherein the three layers are bound together with binder yarns. At a minimum, the composite fabric ply is located in the tire shoulders.

An improved agricultural belting ( ) formed of multiple fabric by layers ( or ), interposing rubber layers ( ) and rubber cover layers ( ). The fabric plies are a woven of warp yarns ( ) extending in the longitudinal direction of the belt ( ) and fill yarns ( ) extending in the transverse direction of the belt ( ). To optimize the transverse stiffness of the belting and other properties of the belt, any of the fabric plies ( , or ) are formed with selective replacement of the multifilament fill yarns ( ) with monofilament cords ( ). The fabric ply ( , or ) formed with monofilament cords ( ) has at most fifty percent monofilament fill cords ( ).

Agricultural belting

A belting ( ) reinforced with at least one fabric ply ( ). The fabric ply ( ) is a composite fabric ( ). The fabric ( ) has two woven layers ( ) and an intermediate third layer of straight warp yarns ( ). The woven layers ( ) and straight warp yarns ( ) are bound together by a plurality of binder yarns ( ). Each layer ( ) of the fabric ( ) contributes substantially 25-40% to the overall strength of the fabric ( ). The composite fabric ( ) may be used in a multi-ply belting ( ) for heavy duty applications; wherein the fabric ply ( ) is the center ply ( ) and provides approximately 50 to 75% of the overall belting strength. The fabric ( ) may also be used as a single reinforcing ply for light duty application belting.
