A frictional transmission belt according to the present disclosure has a belt body wound around a pulley to transmit power. The belt includes a water absorptive fabric covering at least one side of the belt body that contacts with the pulley.

The invention relates to a method of production for attachment by cohesive bonding of a profile having at least one profile element onto a toothed belt previously produced as a semi-finished product. The toothed belt has a tooth side with a toothing and a toothed belt back located on the back of the tooth side of the toothed belt. In the method of production the at least one profile element is built up layer by layer from at least one first profile element layer and a second profile element layer on the toothed belt back, by the application of an application compound to the toothed belt back at a profile element position by melt layer printing.

The present invention relates to a toothed belt containing tooth parts that are disposed at predetermined intervals along a belt longitudinal direction, a cord, and a back side that has the cord embedded therein, in which the cord contains a Lang-twisted glass fiber, an adhesion treatment layer, and an overcoat treatment layer, the overcoat treatment layer is formed on a surface of the adhesion treatment layer, the back side is composed of a rubber composition, and the rubber composition contains from 5 parts by mass to 20 parts by mass of a plasticizer based on 100 parts by mass of a rubber component.

A toothed belt includes an endless back portion, a plurality of belt teeth arranged on a face of the back portion at predetermined intervals in a longitudinal direction of the back portion; and a core made of an elastic knitted or unwoven fabric and embedded in the back portion. Both of the belt teeth and the back portion are made of rubber. The core is not exposed from inter-tooth portions which are located between the belt teeth. In the core, a difference between the position of a point that is closest to the belt teeth in a belt thickness direction and the position of a point that is closest to a back face of the belt in the belt thickness direction is limited to 0.5 mm or less.

A crawler includes crawler body formed by an elastic body shaped into an endless loop, a tensile body embedded in the crawler body and wound around a circumferential direction of the crawler body, guide projections formed at an inner circumferential surface of a width direction central portion of the crawler body and spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the crawler body, a flat face, upon which a rotating wheel provided at a vehicle rolls, forming an inner circumferential surface further toward a width direction outer side of the crawler body than the guide projections and an inclined face, upon which the rotating wheel rolls, inclined from an outer side end portion of the flat face in a crawler body width direction such that a thickness of the crawler body gradually increases toward the width direction outer side and circumferential inner side of the crawler body.

A method for making a V-ribbed belt is made by inserting a first partial blank in the form of a base tube into a cylindrical vulcanization mold having a negative of a V-ribbed profile. The first partial blank is molded into a surrounding negative and thus provided with the V-ribbed profile without vulcanization. A second partial blank made as a top ply tube with a tension strand is inserted into the virtually completely molded-in base tube and is expanded under heat and pressure so that the top ply tube and the base tube are bonded to one another. Thereafter, the latter is molded into the surrounding negative of the vulcanization mold, and the top ply tube and the base tube are vulcanized to form a V-ribbed blank, whereafter the V-ribbed blank is removed from the vulcanization mold and is fed to the cutting device.

A friction transmission belt includes a belt body, formed of a rubber composition, looped over a pulley, and transmitting power. The friction transmission belt includes a reinforcing fabric wrapping at least a surface, of the belt body, in contact with the pulley. The reinforcing fabric is a knitted fabric, and on the surface of the belt body in contact with the pulley, a wale direction of the reinforcing fabric is a direction in which the friction transmission belt travels.

The present invention relates to a wrapped V-belt containing: a belt main body containing a compression layer containing a compression rubber layer and a fabric-laminated body layer, a tension rubber layer and a tension member buried between the compression layer and the tension rubber layer; and an outside cloth that covers a periphery of the belt main body, in which the compression layer has a plurality of notch portions not covered with the outside cloth, and the notch portion has a top disposed in the fabric-laminated body layer.
