Abstract
A method of, and apparatus for, the butt connection of plies formed of plastic deformable material, especially rubberized steel cord plies, wherein the cut surfaces of the plies to be connected are beveled or tapered parallel to one another, positioned so as to be mutually elevationally offset with respect to one another, and then joined together.

A method for the butt connection of plies formed of plastic deformable material, comprising the steps of beveling substantially parallel to one another cut surfaces of the plies which are to be interconnected, positioning such beveled cut surfaces of the plies so as to be in slight overlapping relationship with respect to one another and with the plies located in different substantially horizontal planes, and then connectably joining together the plies by the application of a force to said plies, said force being exerted at an inclination with respect to said plies.
