A polymeric product having a fabric layer and method of making the same are provided, the fabric layer being provided with opposed sides and at least one polymeric part secured to the fabric layer. The fabric layer comprises a first substantially planar layer of threads disposed in superimposed relation with a second substantially planar layer of threads whereby the threads of the first layer are not woven with the threads of the second layer, the polymeric part effectively being the sole securement that secures the threads of the first layer to the threads of the second layer and thereby imparting its flexible characteristic to the securement between the threads of the first and second layers.

An apparatus and method for measuring the angle of at least one side surface of an endless power transmission belt construction of a V-belt type is provided, the apparatus having a first part against which the belt construction is adapted to be disposed in a belt construction measuring position thereof and having a second part pivotally mounted to pivot on an axis thereof and being adapted to be pivotally disposed against the one side surface to indicate the angle thereof by the relation of its pivoted position relative to a reference when the belt construction is against the first part in the measuring position thereof, the apparatus having a moving device operatively interconnected to the second part to tend to move the same toward the belt construction in a direction substantially transverse to the axis thereof when the belt construction is in the measuring position thereof. A method of making such an apparatus is also provided.

Apparatus for measuring a belt construction and methods

An apparatus for measuring the angle of at least one side surface of an endless power transmission belt construction of the V-belt type and a method of making such apparatus are provided, the apparatus having a first part against which the belt construction is adapted to be disposed in a belt construction measuring position thereof and having a second part pivotally mounted to pivot on an axis thereof and being adapted to be pivotally disposed against the one side surface to indicate the angle thereof by the relation of its pivoted position relative to a reference when the belt construction is against the first part in the measuring position thereof. The apparatus has a moving unit operatively interconnected to the second part to tend to move the same toward the belt construction in a direction substantially transverse to the axis thereof when the belt construction is in the measuring position thereof. The second part comprises a plurality of pivotally interconnected links, one of the links having opposed ends with one of those opposed ends being pivotally mounted to the apparatus on the axis thereof and the other of the opposed ends being pivoted to another of the links. The one link is adapted to be pivotally disposed against the one side surface of the belt construction.
