ABSTRACT:
A metal V-belt includes a plurality of metal elements supported by a metal ring. The metal ring includes front and rear main surfaces, a pair of left and right slots that receive the metal ring therein, the slots being defined between a saddle surface and an ear-part bottom surface. A protrusion is provided on one of the front and rear main surfaces, and a concavity is provided in the other of the front and rear main surfaces. A clearance defined between an outermost peripheral surface of the metal ring and the ear-part bottom surface of the metal element is set to a value that at an exit of a driven pulley, contact of the innermost peripheral surface of the metal ring with the saddle surface of the metal element, and contact of the protrusion of a succeeding metal element and the concavity of a preceding metal element is avoided.
