Toothed power transmission belt with fabric reinforcement

A toothed belt that has a tensile member of spirally wound cord where the operating pitch line of the belt is at least partially established by the cord which is made by twisting together at least two substantially zero twist, unequal denier yarn ends to form a ply, and twisting at least two of such piles together in the opposite direction to form the cord.

Toothed belt and method with reinforcement cord
