Abstract

A power transmission belt comprising an elastomeric body and longitudinally spaced, lateral stiffening members extending substantially the width of the body. The stiffening members may be of multiple piece construction and joined to a longitudinal reinforcing tension member in the body of the belt. Additional edge pads may be attached to the stiffeners at the edges of the belt. The belt of this construction is especially adaptable for use to transmit power in variable pulley drives and the like.
