The Effect of Elastic Recoil of Closed-Type Lifting Ropes After Their Manufacture and Drawing

Abstract

A study was made of stresses and factors of internal forces in the elements of ropes of a closed structure during their manufacture. It is established that when twisting a rope of closed construction, its shaped wires suffer from bending deformation, twisting and stretching. In this case, the shaped wires are subjected to a complex load with the concomitant rotation of the axes of the stress tensor. The stresses in the elastic cross-sectional area of the rope wire are considered and its limit is determined for shaped cross-sections and for asymmetric shaped cross-sections. Formulas for approximate determination of tangential and normal stresses in the elements of a closed rope of non-circular profile are obtained: (wedge-shaped, zeta-shaped and x-shaped).
