Abstract

A toothed belt is provided with at least one end attachment part for connecting an end portion of a toothed belt to a housing part or a component to be driven. The end attachment part is a formed strip made of metal or plastic in order to make the attachment of the toothed belt quicker and simpler. The strip has elements or sections which engage in the teeth of the end portion and are securely held therein. In the assembled condition, the end attachment part includes a portion to facilitate a mechanical connection at its end facing away from the end portion of the toothed belt.
