19、 transition zone zone in which the cords are deflected from the cord pitch in the parent belt to the cord pitch in the splice (see figure 1) SANS 485:2009 Edition 1 5 4 Requirements 4.1 General In order for a splice to comply with this standard, the following requirements and the requirements in 4.2

20、 to 4.7 (inclusive) shall be complied with: a) There shall be one single cure across the full width of the belt. b) Belts shall always be aligned along the centre line. c) Splice shall be cleaned, including removal of release agent and trimming of flash rubber. d) Any evidence of moisture ingress or

21、 cord damage shall be recorded and brought to the immediate attention of the responsible owner or official before any further splice construction. e) The cover hardness of the vulcanised splice shall comply with the compound manufacturers nominal Shore A hardness specification (see figure 5). f) Edg

22、e bars shall be made of aluminium, steel or copper and shall be of a thickness of between 1,0 mm and 1,5 mm less than the parent belt thickness as measured at the edge of the belt. g) Urethane or cellulose sponges, clean and dry brushes and new clean cotton cloths shall be used during cleaning and p

23、reparation of splice surfaces. h) Cable cutters only shall be used; no angle grinders or bolt cutters. Cords shall only be cut using a sharp cable cutter so that the end of the cords shall not be distorted or crushed (see annex C). 4.2 Splicing layout 4.2.1 The splice shall be constructed in accorda

24、nce with a splice layout diagram as agreed to by the belt manufacturer or owner. If opposing belts contain an unequal number of cords then the splicing constructor shall use the layout diagram for this purpose, as supplied by the manufacturer of the new belting. 4.2.2 A splice shall be designed to r

25、eturn the highest possible strength. Thus all the cords from both belt ends shall be used in the splice. 4.2.3 The minimum cord spacing shall be one-third of the cord diameter or 2 mm whichever is greater. This spacing together with the total number of cords will dictate the type of splice pattern.

26、The types of splice pattern are as follows: a) Stage 1: Centre cord(s) butted. Lay cords alternately from each belt end, starting with the trailing end, working from centre outwards (see figure 1). SANS 485:2009 Edition 1 6 Figure 1 Common splice pattern stage 1 b) Stage 2: Centre cord(s) butted. La

27、y cords alternately from each belt end, starting with the trailing end, working from centre outwards. Butt every second cord from each end in the centre of the splice (see figure 2). Figure 2 Common splice pattern stage 2 SANS 485:2009 Edition 1 7 c) Stage 3: Centre cord(s) butted. Lay cords alterna

28、tely from each belt end, starting with the trailing end, working from centre outwards. Butt every second and third from each side at one third of splice length (see figure 3). NOTE 1 A stage 3 splice is used for high strength belts or where the cord spacing precludes lower stage splice layout (or bo

29、th). NOTE 2 Higher stage splices are necessary where cord spacing is insufficient to allow a stage 3 splice. The layout of higher stage splices should be obtained from the belting manufacturer. Figure 3 Common splice pattern stage 3 4.2.4 The splicing of belts with different cord counts, for example

30、, 107 cords matched to 114 cords is given in figure 4. SANS 485:2009 Edition 1 8 Figure 4 Example of a splice pattern SANS 485:2009 Edition 1 9 4.3 Number of stages per class of belt The number of stages per class of belt shall be in accordance with table 1.
