ABSTRACT:
A belt is described for use as an emergency replacement for a regular drive or timing belt. The belt comprises an elongated flexible member which has an integral ratchet type connecting means provided on its opposite ends. The flexible member is cut to form a loop of the desired size and the opposite ends are then connected using the ratchet connecting means without requiring any special additional connecting members or tools. The belt is useful, for example, in automobiles as an emergency replacement for the conventional fan belt or other engine belts where a belt fails in use and where the replacement belt permits the motorist to drive a sufficient distance to reach a garage for a regular belt replacement.
