Abstract
A drive belt for a transmission realizing a continuously adjustable transmission ratio comprising at least one continuous band having a part, which, when in a longitudinally stretched state, shows a curvature in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of the drive belt ( ), said curvature being of a generally arc-like shape having a stretched band radius R , associated with a number of cross elements, each having a contact face for interacting with a principal face of the continuous band and provided with a transverse convex curvature of a generally arc-like shape having a face radius R . The inverse value of the face radius R minus the inverse value (1/R ) of the stretched band radius R is notionally larger than −5 m , preferably larger than −3.5 m .
