Abstract: A frictional power transmission belt includes a compression rubber layer having a frictional power transmission surface that is covered with a fabric. The compression rubber layer includes an inner rubber layer in contact with the fabric and an outer rubber layer on an outer peripheral side of the inner rubber layer. The inner rubber layer is formed of a cured product of a rubber composition including a surfactant as a hydrophilic plasticizer, an unsaturated carboxylic acid metal salt, and polyolefin particles.

Abstract: A frictional power-transmission belt having a frictional power-transmission surface covered with a composite fiber layer, in which the composite fiber layer includes a fiber member and an isocyanate compound, and the fiber member includes a cellulose-based fiber. In the frictional power-transmission belt, the isocyanate compound may have a proportion of 3 to 20 mass % in the composite fiber layer.

Abstract: A V-ribbed belt in which a friction transmission surface of a compression rubber layer is coated with a knit fabric is provided. The compression rubber layer is formed of the cured product of a rubber composition containing an ethylene-?-olefin elastomer and carbon black wherein the carbon black contains a soft carbon having a primary particle diameter of at least 40 nm and a hard carbon having a primary particle diameter of less than 40 nm. The ratio between the number of particles of the soft carbon and hard carbon is former/latter=3/97 to 25/75.

Abstract: The frictional power transmission belt includes a frictional power transmission surface formed of a composite fibrous layer containing a fibrous member, an isocyanate compound, and a resin component, wherein the fibrous member contains a cellulose-based fiber. A proportion of each of the isocyanate compound and the resin component in the composite fibrous layer may be 2 to 15% by mass.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a V-ribbed belt that has a medium elongation of 0.8% or more when the load of 4 cN/dtex is applied, and that contains a twisted cord in which a high-elongation aramid fiber having a tensile modulus of 50-100 GPa and a low-modulus fiber having a lower tensile modulus than the high-elongation aramid fiber are blended and twisted.

Abstract: A frictional power transmission belt includes a tension layer forming a belt back surface, a compression rubber layer to be in contact with a pulley and frictionally engaged with the pulley, and a tension member embedded between the tension layer and the compression rubber layer along a belt length direction. The compression rubber layer has a surface to be in contact with the pulley. At least a part of the surface is coated with a fiber layer via a fiber/resin mixture layer. The fiber/resin mixture layer contains a resin component and heat-resistant fibers having a softening point or a melting point higher than a vulcanization temperature of a rubber forming the compression rubber layer. The fiber layer contains hydrophilic heat-resistant fibers having a softening point or a melting point higher than the vulcanization temperature and does not contain a resin component.

Abstract: The combination of: a) first and second spaced pulleys; b) an endless belt; and c) a belt installation jig having a body with: a pulley pressing part; a belt holding part; and a belt pressing part. The belt installation jig and belt cooperate so that with the belt operatively wrapped against the second pulley and partially operatively wrapped against the first pulley, turning of the first pulley causes the belt to progressively wrap around the first pulley to a fully operatively wrapped state, whereupon further turning of the first pulley situates the belt installation jig for separation from the belt and pulleys.
