Abstract
An air spring rolling-lobe flexible member is made of elastomeric material and has at least two layers of intersecting reinforcement filaments. The reinforcement filaments are arranged in an essentially parallel manner to each other at an angle between 40° and 80° to the direction of the periphery of the rolling-lobe flexible member. At least one component quantity of the reinforcement filaments (1, 2) within one layer exhibits another strength compared to the remaining component quantity thereof.
Claims6
An air spring flexible member of elastomeric material, the air spring flexible member having an annular configuration defining a peripheral direction and comprising:
- at least two mutually crossing layers of reinforcing filaments with the reinforcing filaments being inclined at an angle of 40° to 80° to said peripheral direction of said flexible member and being arranged essentially parallel to each other within a layer;
- and,
- at least a first component quantity of the reinforcement filaments within at least one of said layers having a strength different from the strength of the remaining component quantity of reinforcement filaments in said one layer.
