Abstract:
A rigid cap is provided for a motor vehicle, in particular, for the engine of a motor vehicle. The rigid cap has a first layer made of a metal material and at least a second layer comprising polyamide 11. Preferably, the second layer is made entirely of polyamide 11 and, even more preferably, entirely covers the first layer. The cap may be a press-fit cap or a threaded cap.
Abstract:
Poly-V belt comprising a body made of elastomeric material, preferably EPDM, a plurality of threadlike resistant inserts longitudinally embedded in the body, and a coupling portion integrally connected to the body and comprising a plurality of V-shaped ribs arranged side by side and alternated with V-shaped grooves. According to the present invention the belt comprises a layer of a thermoplastic material which covers the ribs at least partially, and a layer of elastomeric material in which a knitted fabric is embedded. The layer of elastomeric material is above and in contact with the thermoplastic material.
Abstract:
A transmission belt is described which comprises a body made of a first elastomeric material, a plurality of teeth and a plurality of longitudinal cords buried in the body of the belt and a back. The belt has a working surface on said teeth and the working surface is at least partially covered by a covering made of a plastic and/or metal material. Defining the area comprised between the plane defined by the neutral axis of the cords, the working surface and the median transverse planes of two adjacent teeth as the unitary longitudinal section, the covering preferably occupies at least 25% of the unitary longitudinal section.
