Abstract
Abstract A wear-resistant rubber product adapted to be used as, for example, a lifter in grinding mills, comprises at least two prefabricated parts (11, 12) interconnected with one another by means of a binder layer having a thickness of at least 2 mm and consisting of in situ cast and cured polyurethane. The wear-resistant rubber product is manufactured by placing the prefabricated cured rubber parts (11, 12) at a distance of at least 2 mm from one another and by introducing, preferably injecting a reacting urethane rubber composition with excess isocyanate groups into the gap (13) to cause said prefabricated parts on either side of said gap to be contacted subtantially simultaneously by the said urethane rubber composition.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
A wear-resistant rubber product adapted to be used as a lifter in grinding mills, said product comprising at least two prefabricated parts, one of said parts including a holder for mounting said product, the other said part being a prefabricated vulcanized wear-resistant rubber body having a profile corresponding to the intended profile of a portion of the rubber product, said parts being interconnected with one another by means of a binder, characterized in that the binder consists essentially of a layer of urethane rubber cast and vulcanized in situ between said prefabricated parts, said layer having a thickness of at least 2 mm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
A wear-resistant rubber product adapted to be used as a lifter in grinding mills, said product comprising at least two prefabricated parts, one of said parts including a holder for mounting said product, the other said part being a prefabricated vulcanized wear-resistant rubber body having a profile corresponding to the intended profile of a portion of the rubber product, said parts being interconnected with one another by means of a binder, characterized in that the binder consists essentially of a layer of urethane rubber cast and vulcanized in situ between said prefabricated parts, said layer having a thickness of at least 2 mm.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A product as claimed in claim 1 wherein the part comprising the holder is a worn rubber product of the intended type.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
18 words
