Flat belt

Abstract

A flat belt has a longitudinal reinforcement fabric to reinforce the flat belt along the longitudinal direction. A first thermoplastic resin layer is laminated on an upper side of the longitudinal reinforcement fabric. A second thermoplastic resin layer is laminated on a lower side of the longitudinal reinforcement fabric. A first lateral reinforcement fabric is laminated on an upper side of the first thermoplastic resin layer to reinforce the flat belt along the lateral direction. A second lateral reinforcement fabric is laminated on a lower side of the second thermoplastic resin layer to reinforce the flat belt along the lateral direction. A first friction layer is provided above an upper side of the first lateral reinforcement fabric, and is formed with a conveyor surface for conveying a subject.
