Abstract: A pipe joint includes first and second sleeves having fluid flow paths communicating with each other; an annular gasket interposed between abutting end surfaces of the sleeves; a male screw member having a through hole into which the first sleeve is inserted; and a female screw member having a through hole into which the second sleeve is inserted, the sleeves being joined by screwing the male screw member with the female screw member, wherein the pipe joint has a leak port opened at a portion of the outer peripheral surface of the male screw member not covered by the female screw member and communicates with a gap between the male screw member and the first sleeve to detect a leak fluid leaked from gaps between the sleeves and the gasket.

Abstract: A friction transmission belt includes a belt body which transmits power to a pulley. In a relationship between a friction coefficient and a slipping speed which is a difference between a speed of the belt body and a speed of the pulley, when a slipping speed at which a maximum friction coefficient is indicated is defined as a first slipping speed, a friction coefficient when the slipping speed is increased from the first slipping speed to a second slipping speed is defined as a reference friction coefficient, and a difference between the second slipping speed and the first slipping speed is 500 mm/s, a decrease rate Dm of the friction coefficient indicated by the following equation (1) with the maximum friction coefficient being denoted by ?x and the reference friction coefficient being denoted by ?r is not greater than 20%.

Abstract: A V-ribbed belt includes a plurality of V-shaped ribs, each of the plurality of V-shaped ribs includes a V-shaped rib body formed from a crosslinked rubber composition and a fiber member covering a surface of the V-shaped rib body, the crosslinked rubber composition is a crosslinked product of an uncrosslinked rubber composition containing a rubber component, a crosslinking agent, and at least either an unsaturated carboxylic acid metal salt or a maleimide compound, and a total amount of the unsaturated carboxylic acid metal salt and the maleimide compound per 100 parts by mass of the rubber component is 1 to 40 parts by mass.

Abstract: A friction transmission belt includes a compression layer forming a pulley contact portion, the compression layer includes an inner layer formed from a rubber composition and an outer layer provided on a pulley contact side of the inner layer and formed from a fiber member, and a ratio (M10 modulus/M50 modulus) of an modulus at 10% elongation in a belt longitudinal direction (M10 modulus) to an modulus at 50% elongation in the belt longitudinal direction (M50 modulus), of the rubber composition, is not less than 1.5.

Abstract: A power transmission belt includes: a belt body and a cover fabric made of a fabric containing synthetic fibers as a main component and covering a surface of the belt body toward a pulley contact surface. The cover fabric has a surface toward the belt body, and the surface is in contact with a rubber composition containing cellulose-based short fibers. The rubber composition includes a rubber component in which the cellulose-based short fibers are dispersed. The cover fabric and the rubber composition containing the cellulose-based short fibers are exposed on a pulley contact surface.

Abstract: A V-ribbed belt has a cord made of polyester-based fibers, the total fiber fineness of which is 2200 dtex or more and 5500 dtex or less. A fiber fineness of the cord per belt width corresponding to a single V-shaped rib ranges from 10000 dtex to 19000 dtex. A belt dry-heat shrinkage force per belt width corresponding to a single V-shaped rib is 44 N or more. The belt dry-heat shrinkage force is a load increase with respect to a belt length of 300 mm in 30 minutes after applying, in an atmosphere of 150° C., a load of 6N in the belt longitudinal direction and holding the belt.
