Abstract
Provided is an endless belt which can improve rotational durability when compared to a conventional endless belt. This endless belt is formed in a tubular shape and is used for electronic photographing apparatuses. The endless belt has an edge part which is formed on at least one belt edge in the belt width direction and which has an end that is tapered toward the outside of the belt width direction. The edge part can be configured by a first edge part formed by intersecting an outer inclined surface with a belt inner circumferential surface, a second edge part configured by intersecting an inner inclined surface with a belt outer circumferential surface, or a third edge part configured by intersecting the outer inclined surface with the inner inclined surface.
