In a first aspect, the present invention relates to a flat belt as an endless traction means suitable for conveyor belts, wherein the flat belt has no fabric insert in the force transmission region and optionally no fabric insert in the back of the belt. In a further aspect, a method for producing a flat belt as an endless traction means is provided. This method is a multistage method involving the steps of forming a flat belt with a main body and endless tension member elements, present therein, by means of a rotary vulcanization process, and subsequently forming at least a part of the force transmission region on the flat belt obtained by the rotary vulcanization process. Furthermore, drive means for conveyor belts, comprising a flat belt according to the invention are provided, and agricultural machines having a conveying device, designed to convey agricultural harvested material, having a flat belt or conveyor belt according to the invention.

The present invention relates to a V-ribbed belt that has a medium elongation of 0.8% or more when the load of 4 cN/dtex is applied, and that contains a twisted cord in which a high-elongation aramid fiber having a tensile modulus of 50-100 GPa and a low-modulus fiber having a lower tensile modulus than the high-elongation aramid fiber are blended and twisted.

Disclosed herein is an assembly, method of assembling, and kit for assembling an assembled flexible helical belt that is mounted within a mounting space defined by a continuous mechanical constraint of a device. Embodiments of the flexible helical belt include a flexible helical belt that has a plurality of belt teeth, where some of the belt teeth are each pierced by a through hole which extends through the respective belt tooth and where the flexible helical belt is of sufficient length such that, when the flexible helical belt is mounted within the intended mounting space, the flexible helical belt overlaps itself by at least one rotation such that each through hole is transversely aligned with at least one other through hole, enabling a transverse compression device to be fitted through the through holes, creating a transverse compressive force on the flexible helical belt to form a single continuous drive belt.
