Leather belts or aprons for textile machines

摘要

The invention relates to the production of leather belts and aprons for textile machines in which the natural smooth and relatively non-fibrous grain surface of the leather is removed to expose the natural inner flesh surface and subjecting the surface to mechanical treatment by setting or rolling to compact the surface and impregnating the surface with a polymeric substance to consolidate the surface layer to produce a belt or apron with a smooth non-tacky surface.
