Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an engineered rope recommended for use in many fields and in particular in those where cords, lines, and ropes can usually be utilised but, above all, the said rope is particularly suitable for making items of furniture and architecture and many other objects in which considerable tenacity and resistance are needed, but also for other items, such as bags and sports bags.
  • a cord is a set of interlaced strands, made of various materials, which is able to withstand tractive stresses.
  • a cord can be constituted of fibrous materials (natural or synthetic) or metal. In the first case, i. e. natural, it is commonly known as cord, while in the second, i.e. synthetic, as cable.
  • the rope is composed of a core and a sheath, which are rendered integral by means of a special treatment which determines excellent knot tenacity and abrasion strength, optimal handling, and good ultimate breaking strength.
  • a first drawback is that there are no flat ropes, i .e. ropes with an essentially rectangular section, a configuration which would allow the use thereof in many areas where a prevalently two-dimensional section is preferable.
  • a further drawback derives from the fact that the existing ropes do not envisage high resistance to stresses of a torsional type but, above all, to folding, which limits the possibilities of use thereof.
  • cords are often used to produce chair seats and/or backs, lamps, decorative items and many other items but the cords currently used have highlighted a number of problems due to wear and tear and, when exposed to outdoor environments, the effect is amplified by the fact that they both become impregnated with water and absorb dirt and dust, becoming stained and dark, and are difficult to wash and restore to their original appearance. Moreover, while being resistant, the cords currently used are unable to resist strains and stresses of a certain entity.
  • the aim of the present invention is essentially to solve the problems of the known technique by overcoming the aforesaid drawbacks by means of a engineered rope which allows very many obj ects to be made in various fields, such as: furniture, architecture, fabric architecture, design, fashion, sports, etc., in addition to fabric systems for architecture, and to be able to offer notable resistance to wear, in addition to having a particularly pleasant, captivating, and variable aesthetic appearance.
  • a second aim of the present invention is to provide an engineered rope which is pleasant to the touch, possesses the right rigidity to resist the strains to which it is subj ected, has no memory effect, and has near-zero elasticity.
  • a third obj ect of the present invention is to provide an engineered rope which allows improved technological characteristics with respect to those currently available on the market, which features increased mechanical resistance and greater tenacity and wear resistance, which acts as a sensor for electromagnetic fields and which allows obj ects, furniture and architectural installations to be made which feature interesting sound absorbent capacities.
  • a still further aim of the present invention is to produce an engineered rope which allows thermal capacity, in addition to electrical and thermal conductivity, which proves to be fire-resistant.
  • a still further aim of the present invention is to produce an engineered rope which is not hygroscopic and which is resistant to atmospheric agents and ultraviolet rays, and is not worn by water and solar rays.
  • a still further aim of the present invention is to produce an engineered rope which allows a flattened configuration thereof with various colour combinations, with high mechanical resistance and an appearance which remains unchanged over time.
  • a still further aim of the present invention is to produce an engineered rope which allows the said rope to also be made of recycled material and be reusable without impacting on waste.
  • a still further but not final aim of the present invention is to produce an engineered rope which is easy to manufacture and works well.
  • FIG. 2 shows a detail of the engineered rope in Figure 1 ;
  • 1 denotes an engineered rope as a whole, according to the present invention.
  • the engineered rope 1 is essentially composed of a core 2 and an external sheath 3, which covers the said core.
  • the core 2 of the engineered rope consists of a strap made of synthetic fibre of an essentially known type, which may be a polymeric material or polyester or a laminate sheet made of a composite material.
  • the core 2 features high tenacity which allows the rope to resist notable strains and is envisaged with contained elongation percentages which allow the rope not to deform and alter over time, rendering it suitable for a series of previously unimaginable uses, since the cords and ropes currently available on the market are rather elastic.
  • the core 2 proves unalterable when exposed to sudden temperature changes, in addition to being insensitive to ultraviolet rays.
  • the said core does not wear, is very flexible, and exists in a wide range of widths, a condition which allows a considerable number of ropes to be obtained with different dimensions and characteristics, in terms of both aesthetics and of tenacity and resistance.
  • the core 2 consists of a sheet of composite material consisting of compacted, stiffened linen filaments which have been impregnated with specific synthetic resins or glass fibre or resin-impregnated carbon.
  • the linen filaments feature the same characteristics as carbon fibres as regards, for example, tractive resistance.
  • the core 2 of the rope requires the presence of graphene, which is added to the polymer molecules during the strap/laminate production phase, prior to extrusion.
  • the graphene used is in powder form, nanotube form, or flake form.
  • the core is coated with a layer of graphene, which can be applied by immersion or by spraying or by spreading onto the strap/laminate already produced.
  • the external sheath 3 which covers the core 2 is made of a natural and/or synthetic material consisting of a plurality of interlaced or braided strands.
  • the external sheath 3 is composed of a structure consisting of primary strands, or thrum, which are subjected to the twisting method, i.e. torsion which leads to the formation of yarns which, when subjected to a further rope-making operation, produce the sheath or a structure obtained by a special braiding process that creates a tubular element designed to house and cover the core.
  • twisting method i.e. torsion which leads to the formation of yarns which, when subjected to a further rope-making operation, produce the sheath or a structure obtained by a special braiding process that creates a tubular element designed to house and cover the core.
  • the sheath can be produced using strands of a synthetic material (polyester, polypropylene, acrylic fibres, etc .), or of a natural material (linen, cotton, wool, etc.) or a mixture of the two, but any other strand which meets the requirements can be used, including metal wire.
  • a synthetic material polyethylene, polypropylene, acrylic fibres, etc .
  • a natural material linen, cotton, wool, etc.
  • any other strand which meets the requirements can be used, including metal wire.
  • the rope in question is produced by inserting both the core and the strap or the laminate inside the sheath, which results in a rope which proves to have a flat, not circular, section as occurs with cords and ropes according to the known technique.
  • the rope is ductile, tenacious, UV-resistant and very lightweight.
  • the engineered rope in question features a good sound- absorption capacity, which means the said rope lessens noise present and reduces the transmission of sound to surrounding or adj acent areas to those in which an obj ect produced with this rope is located since - whether the said obj ect is a settee, rug, wall-hanging, or even the entire covering of a wall or floor - the said obj ect absorbs, rather than transmitting, the noi se.
  • the presence of the graphene in the strap/laminate in the rope allows increased mechanical strength of the rope and increased wear resistance and tenacity, since the presence of the graphene allows the creation of a grid structure in which the atoms are arranged to form hexagons which render the material more resistant to stresses.
  • graphene is the thinnest material that exists, since it is a layer of monatomic carbon.
  • it is extremely strong, harder than a diamond, and yet enormously flexible because the bonds between its atoms also allow it to be bent and stretched.
  • the unique grid structure thereof allows the electrons which carry the current to move so fast that they almost reach the speed of light.
  • the rope in question has a core made of a nanoreinforced conductive polymeric material since graphene can also be used in the form of nanotubes, thereby giving the rope further characteristics.
  • the engineered rope according to the present invention acquires a thermal/electrical capacity which allows - with a suitable connection to the electricity supply grid - a new function to be given to a series of objects for furnishing such as, for example, hangings or panels to be applied to walls which become heat radiating sources, being transformed into radiating elements so as to provide a contribution to the heating of a room when (in the intermediate seasons, for example) the heating system is not operational but there is a need to remove the feeling of coldness or humidity sometimes felt in a room.
  • the engineered rope employed in fabric architecture allows the production of sound-absorbent walls or objects and allows the detection of the presence of electromagnetic fields and the absorption thereof.
  • the rope is not affected by rain, ambient humidity, or sudden temperature changes due to either heat or cold, and is easily washed which means that its appearance remains unchanged over time.
  • the engineered rope features high mechanical resistance, which is notably higher than a standard rope put to similar uses.
  • the rope may have different thicknesses and widths depending on the strap or laminate used, and different colours so as to differentiate between uses and make them more special, in order to adapt the rope to the style of the object to be produced.
  • the rope conceived in this way allows the production of items of furniture, such as chairs, settees, furniture and any other furnishing ever made with wicker, rush, rattan, etc.. since it features high flexibility, and manoeuvrability and a decidedly greater ability to bend and flex than the aforesaid materials.
  • the rope can be used in all the cases in which cords are used which, however, normally tend to dilate and deform, to wear and to be subjected to changes, thereby losing tenacity and resistance.
  • the rope proves more structured with respect to normal cords, which gives it great opportunity for use, since it has a structural capacity which a common cord does not have, because of the presence of the core.
  • the rope according to the present invention can be used in architectural installations and embodiments and in fabric architecture, as well as for items of furniture for both indoor and outdoor use, for containers of various shapes and for baskets, for large and small bags, items of clothing, belts, wallets, purses, boots and shoes, and for any other objects or accessories, such as, for example, bracelets.
  • the rope allows a composite material to be made available since it can be braided, woven, and processed in multiple combinations, resulting in the creation of panels, fabrics, curtains, and various structures.
  • the rope can be used in sailing in the same way as existing ropes and/or in place of the lines and in all those applications where cords and cables of a known type are used.
  • the engineered rope in question allows the production of very many obj ects in various fields, such as architecture and fabric architecture, furniture for both indoor and outdoor use, design, fashion, sports, etc . , it features great ease of use, offers remarkable wear resistance for the obj ect produced, in addition to having an aesthetic appearance which is particularly captivating, pleasant, innovative, and variable so that the engineered rope can be adjusted and adapted to styles, fashions, and different requirements.
  • the engineered rope allows obj ects with different colour combinations to be obtained, with high mechanical resistance; in fact, the engineered rope is not hygroscopic, it is resistant to atmospheric agents and ultraviolet rays, it is not worn by water, frost and solar rays, and it maintains an appearance which remains unaltered over time.
  • the engineered rope can be used with any type of material with pairings and colour combinations based on needs, fashions, or other factors.
  • the engineered rope according to the present invention allows the creation of many various and diverse embodiments, as well as allowing customisation and variation thereof if the final user requires it.
  • the rope in question guarantees ultimate strengths and abrasion resistance higher than any other rope currently available on the market and even higher than that of a steel cable, but without the disadvantages of weight, memory effect, and the possibility of breakage in the event of tight bends.
  • the engineered rope according to the present invention has improved technological characteristics with respect to those currently available on the market and, in fact, is endowed with increased mechanical resistance and greater tenacity and wear resistance.
  • obj ects and furnishings can be created which have an interesting sound-absorption capacity, as well as a thermal capacity and electrical and thermal conductivity, as well as being fire-resistant.
  • the rope according to the present invention is pleasant to the touch, has the right rigidity to resist the strains to which it is subjected, has no memory effect and possesses near-zero elasticity.
  • the seats of both chairs and settees made with the rope in question are much more resistant, maintaining the characteristics thereof over time, as well as offering a longer duration than those according to the known technique and, in addition, they can be heated, thereby offering the user a pleasant feeling of wellbeing and comfort.
  • the rope in question can be obtained entirely from recycled material and can, in turn, be recycled so as not to require the disposal thereof, thereby containing the production of waste.
  • the rope facilitates environmental protection as it prevents natural materials being used in a thoughtless way and reduces the introduction of polluting materials, such as plastic, into the environment, since it is completely reused.
  • polluting materials such as plastic
  • using the rope in question instead of natural materials, such as rush, wicker, rattan, etc.. prevents an indiscriminate use thereof.
  • a further advantage is due to the fact that the engineered rope is easy to manufacture and works well.
