Abstract: Two embodiments of a false tooth limit the damage to a toothed belt and of a bearing layer of a base of the toothed belt, which in general comprises cables or textiles. The false tooth comprises a longitudinal bar and a bushing which extends transversally from the longitudinal bar. In the first embodiment the longitudinal bar is tapered towards a free end of the bushing while in the second embodiment the longitudinal bar is profiled, i.e., has a flank for contacting the toothed belt which is convex towards the outside when viewed in transversal section. The false teeth are advantageously applied on toothed belts comprising grooves which cut the teeth, enabling a reduction of the thickness of the tooth during the winding. A method and a semi-finished workpiece are also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cogged belt for conveying articles and/or for power transmission, and an apparatus for realization thereof. The cogged belt (30, 50) comprises: a prefabricated belt (8) comprising a textile or a meshed net; and a covering (26) made of a thermoplastic or heat-hardening material fixed in a single body by fusion to the prefabricated belt (8) and substantially entirely covering a side of the prefabricated belt (8), the covering (26) forming a cogged profile (43). The cogged belt (30, 50) can further comprise at least a cord-shaped reinforcing core (61) at least partially incorporated in the covering (26).

Abstract: Belt piece, of the type which can be closed as a loop and usable for the transport of articles and/or for power transmissions, which comprises a central body (80) and two restrainable ends (2), (3), which: extend in parallel to the longitudinal axis of the belt piece (1); have transverse dimensions smaller than the ones of the central body (80); and at longitudinal sides (81), (82) have complementary coupling profiles (4), (5) comprising a plurality of first (6) and second portions (7). These portions are arranged in mutual contact when the ends (2), (3) are coupled and press the one against the other in case a longitudinal traction effort is applied to the belt piece (1), closed as a loop, to prevent the ends (2, 3) from sliding in longitudinal direction.

Abstract: A joint for toothed belt aimed at conveying articles, with the belt including an inner central layer, which defines the belt body, an upper layer, which defines a surface for receiving articles to be conveyed, and a lower layer featuring teeth, includes: first connecting mechanism, attached in an irremovable way to the central layer in the area of the terminal section of a belt first edge to be joined; second connecting mechanism, attached irremovably to the central layer in the area of the terminal section of a belt second edge to be joined. After the first edge had been moved close to the second edge to complete a closed loop formed by the belt, the first connecting mechanism and second connecting mechanism engage with each other and are reciprocally locked in a removable way by locking mechanism, acting crosswise to the belt in the area of the central layer, to join the first edge and second edge.
