Abstract
A substantially trapezoidal endless belt structure having reduced coefficient of friction raw-edged non-parallel sides is provided and comprises a tension section, a compression section, and load-carrying means disposed between the sections with each of such sections being made of an elastomeric compound having anti-friction properties which reduce the coefficient of friction of such sides.
Claims7
An endless substantially trapezoidal power transmission belt structure having reduced coefficient of friction raw-edged non-parallel sides comprising, a tension section, a compression section, and load-carrying means disposed between said sections, each of said sections being made of an elastomeric compound comprising a polymer and graphite, said compound having anti-friction properties which reduce the coefficient of friction of said sides, said graphite comprising 15-90 parts by weight for each 100 parts by weight of said polymer.
