Abstract

A ring for fitting to a resilient support containing two metal cores interconnected by a piece of elastomer, the ring serving to limit the extent to which the cores can be moved apart accidentally. The ring is rectangular in section and is made up of a succession of alternating layers respectively constituted by tapes of elastically deformable material and by sheets of parallel threads that are strong in traction.
