Abstract
The present disclosure provides for a reinforced elastomeric blade having a plurality of laminated layers. The laminated layers can include at least two layers of elastomeric material at least partially separated by a fiber reinforced laminate layer or an embedded metal layer.
Claims20
A reinforced elastomeric blade for presenting to a road surface, the reinforced elastomeric blade comprising:
- an elastomeric blade including a plurality of laminated layers;
- said laminated layers including at least two layers of elastomeric material separated by at least a first layer of reinforcing fibers;
- said at least two layers of elastomeric material and said at least first layer of reinforcing fibers moldable and curable in a mold cavity to form a monolithic structure;
- and,
- said at least first layer of reinforcing fibers coextensive with a bottom surface of one elastomeric layer and coextensive with a top surface of another elastomeric layer;
- wherein the reinforced elastomeric blade resists wear on an associated plow.
A reinforced elastomeric blade for resisting wear from contact between an associated plow blade and a road surface, the reinforced elastomeric blade comprising:
- an elastomeric blade including a plurality of laminated layers, each of said laminated layers formed of a rubber mixture with fibers:
- the elastomeric blade for adhering to an associated part of a plow blade edge system.
A reinforced elastomeric blade for use with a plow blade edge system, the reinforced elastomeric blade comprising:
- at least a first layer of reinforcing fibers embedded within at least two layers of elastomeric material separated by;
- said at least two layers of elastomeric material and said at least first layer of reinforcing fibers moldable and curable in a mold cavity to form a monolithic structure;
- and,
- said at least first layer of reinforcing fibers coextensive with a bottom surface of one elastomeric layer and coextensive with a top surface of another elastomeric layer.
