Toothed belt comprising a resistant layer and resistant layer thereof

摘要

There is described a toothed belt comprising an elastomeric material body, in which a plurality of longitudinal filiform resistant inserts is embedded, and a toothing coated by a coating fabric. A resistant layer that increases the resistance to abrasion and thus the resistance to wear of the toothed belt is adhered over the coating fabric. The resistant layer comprises a vulcanization agent and more than 75% of an elastomer formed by at least one copolymer modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid salt and obtained from a dien monomer and a nitrile group-containing monomer. The resistant layer is advantageously separated from the fabric and is calendered on the fabric itself.

1. A toothed belt comprising:
physical properties for maintaining the belt in an oil wet condition in a timing system, including a body made of a first elastomeric material formed by a mixture of one or more copolymers, obtained from a dien monomer and a nitrile group-containing monomer, and a plurality of teeth; said teeth being coated by a fabric; said fabric being covered by a resistant layer, said resistant layer totally adhering to the fabric and forming in use the working surface of the toothed belt and wherein said resistant layer comprises a vulcanisation agent and more than 85% of a second elastomeric material formed by at least one copolymer modified with an unsaturated carboxylic acid salt and obtained from a dien monomer and a nitrile group-containing monomer,
wherein said first elastomeric material has an unsaturation level lower than 1%,wherein said second elastomeric material is formed by a mixture of one or more copolymers, obtained from a dien monomer and a nitrile-group containing monomer in which the nitrile group-containing monomers are in a percentage in the range between 33% and 49% in weight with respect to total final copolymers,wherein said resistant layer contains no anti-friction material, and,wherein said resistant layer consists essentially of said second elastomeric material.
