ABSTRACT:
Every link member is composed of individual link member disks having designs different from each other. All link member disks have tongues and projections projecting above these tongues, which projections comprise thrust surfaces. The link member disks of every link member abut each other via these thrust surfaces and the two outermost link member disks of every link member are intended to abut via their thrust surfaces the conically extending surfaces of the driving disks of an infinitely variable transmission having disks looped by a flexible belt. The link member disks of every link member have different thicknesses viewed in the direction of the pivot pins which penetrate the tongues. The succession of the various link member disks of every link member can be varied at each link member such that it is possible to assemble a link belt such that it produces in operation extremely small noise in consideration of the prevailing operational conditions such as speed, power transmitted, distance between the two driving disks, etc.
