ABSTRACT:
A continuous metal belt for a pulley drive system with V-grooved pulleys includes a flexible metal loop which acts as a guide for a plurality of drive-transmitting blocks slidable on the loop and retained thereon by respective recesses in the blocks. The recess of each block has two lateral guide walls having at their free ends respective retaining projections with active retaining surfaces which face the loop. A plurality of channel elements are arranged with their bottoms extending between the active surfaces and the loop, and their sides between the lateral guide walls and the edges of the loop, so as to reduce rotational movement of the blocks and prevent damaging contact between the blocks and the loop.
