Claim 0:
1. A rod belt for rod belt conveyors of agricultural machines, the rod belt having a running direction and comprising:
tensile stress-resistant, elastic and continuous belts running in parallel to one another in a running direction;
transverse rods arranged perpendicular to the running direction and parallel to one another in a pre-determined rod spacing, each transverse rod having mounting sections with which the transverse rods rest on the belts,
wherein the transverse rods are fastened to the belts by attachment means, passing through the mounting sections of the transverse rods and the belts; and
protective forge covers attached to the belts, each forge cover having a mounting profile and a flexible protection profile,
wherein the mounting profile of each forge cover is sandwiched and clamped between one of the mounting sections of the transverse rods and one of the belts in such a way that the mounting profile of the forge cover is enclosed vertically by the respective belt and the mounting section of the respective rod, fastening each forge cover together with one of the transverse rods to the respective belt, and
wherein the protection profile of each forge cover projects upward from the mounting profile of each forge cover to laterally enclose or laterally cover at least one of the mounting sections of the transverse rods by the protection profile.
