Abstract
A center cord line V-belt having a longitudinally extending load-carrying tensile section of cord interpositioned between first and second layers with substantially the same fabrication construction which includes at least two plies of bias fabric disposed in an elastomeric matrix of the first and second layers near the inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the V-belt.
Claims4
A V-belt comprising:
- an endless tensile member;
- at least two layers of which the first and second layers principally composed of elastomeric material and having substantially the same thickness, the first layer disposed inwardly and the second layer disposed outwardly of the tensile member;
- means for transversely supporting the tensile member, the transverse support means disposed in the first and second layers substantially equidistant inwardly and outwardly from the tensile member;
- a first ply of bias fabric disposed substantially at the outer peripheral surfaces of the first and second layers, the first ply disposed substantially equidistant from the tensile member and having an angle A between weft and warp threads between 95.degree. and 160.degree.;
- and
- a second ply of bias fabric disposed substantially equidistant from the first ply of bias fabric in each of the first and second layers.
