Abstract
Abstract The present method of securing the end of a spiral-lay wire rope in a tapered socket consists in simultaneous forcing of a set of conical rings with wedge-shaped spiral ribs between the layers of wires of the nonloosened end of the rope protruding from the socket with simultaneous clamping of the end of the rope around the perimeter and with subsequent squeezing it in the socket wherein the process of squeezing is effected with a force sufficient for attaining the yield point of the material of conical rings until said material fills the gaps between the wires.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
112 words
A method of securing the end of a spiral-lay wire rope in a tapered socket with the aid of a set of concentric conical rings with wedge-shaped spiral ribs on the surface, said method consisting of the following operations: simultaneous forcing of said conical rings between the layers of wires of the nonloosened end of the rope protruding from the socket, concurrently with clamping of the end of the rope around the perimeter and with subsequent squeezing of the end of the rope in said tapered socket with a force sufficient for attaining the yield point of the material of the conical rings until said material fills the gaps between the wires.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
112 words
A method of securing the end of a spiral-lay wire rope in a tapered socket with the aid of a set of concentric conical rings with wedge-shaped spiral ribs on the surface, said method consisting of the following operations: simultaneous forcing of said conical rings between the layers of wires of the nonloosened end of the rope protruding from the socket, concurrently with clamping of the end of the rope around the perimeter and with subsequent squeezing of the end of the rope in said tapered socket with a force sufficient for attaining the yield point of the material of the conical rings until said material fills the gaps between the wires.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
A method as claimed in claim 1 wherein said concentric conical rings with wedge-shaped spiral ribs are made of a solid metal whose yield point is lower than that of the material of the rope wires.
