Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The present invention relates to a power transmission belt containing a frictional power transmission part and a fiber member that covers a surface of the frictional power transmission part, in which the fiber member is formed of a fiber (A) containing a water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) and contains a surfactant, to a fiber member used in the power transmission belt, and to a method for manufacturing the fiber member.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
1 . A power transmission belt comprising a frictional power transmission part and a fiber member that covers a surface of the frictional power transmission part, wherein the fiber member is formed of a fiber (A) containing a water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) and contains a surfactant. 2 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) contains a cellulose-based fiber. 3 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) contains a cotton fiber. 4 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) has a proportion of 1% by mass or more in the entire fiber (A). 5 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the fiber (A) further contains a non-water-absorbent fiber (A 2 ). 6 . The power transmission belt according to claim 5 , wherein the non-water-absorbent fiber (A 2 ) contains a stretchable fiber. 7 . The power transmission belt according to claim 5 , wherein the water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) and the non-water-absorbent fiber (A 2 ) has a ratio of the former/the latter (mass ratio)=99/1 to 5/95. 8 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the fiber member is a knitted fabric. 9 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the fiber member is a knitted fabric that is knitted by weft knitting. 10 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant contains a nonionic surfactant. 11 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the surfactant has a content of from 1 to 100 g per 1 m 2 of the fiber member. 12 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the frictional power transmission part is formed of a rubber. 13 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the power transmission belt further comprises a tension layer that forms a belt back face, a compression layer formed on one side of the tension layer, and a tension member embedded along a belt longitudinal direction between the tension layer and the compression layer and the compression layer has the frictional power transmission part. 14 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , which is a V-ribbed belt. 15 . The power transmission belt according to claim 1 , wherein the frictional power transmission part has a contact angle of from 0 to 30°, after a lapse of 5 seconds from dropwise addition of water onto its surface. 16 . A fiber member for covering a surface of a frictional power transmission part constituting a power transmission belt, wherein the fiber member is formed of a fiber (A) containing a water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) and contains a surfactant. 17 . A method for manufacturing the fiber member described in claim 16 , which comprises a step of immersing a main body of the fiber member formed of the fiber (A) containing the water-absorbent fiber (A 1 ) in a solution containing the surfactant. 18 . The manufacturing method according to claim 17 , wherein the solution has a concentration of the surfactant of from 0.3 to 50% by mass.
