Abstract
A plate-link chain for infinitely adjustable cone pulley drives, the link pivot elements of which, joining the individual chain links embodied by plate packets, are embodied as thrust members is disclosed. The thrust members are inserted into recesses of the plate-links, and with their end faces they serve to transfer frictional force between friction wheels and the plate-link chain. The embodiment is such that the length of the thrust members of individual links, defined crosswise to the direction of travel of the plate-link chain varies in a non-periodic sequence over the length of the chain.
