Abstract

A metal chain-belt for drivingly connecting the pulleys of a pulley transmission, each pulley of which is composed of a pair of flanges, the chain-belt comprising a carrier composed of interleaved sets of links and pulley flange engaging members, each of which is a pair of back-to-back joined C-shaped member, the arms of the latter engaging the pulley flanges. The longitudinal length of the top arms of a pair of members substantially equals the pitch of the chain; the longitudinal length of the bottom arms is less to permit the belt to articulate.
