Abstract:
A shoe press belt comprising a cylindrical, elastic member formed of a high molecular weight resin and having a base member embedded therein, the cylindrical member having inner and outer walls coaxially disposed about an axis, the inner and outer walls being uniformly spaced from each other radially, whereby the cylindrical member has a uniform thickness, and the base member embedded in the high molecular weight resin being located between the inner and outer walls of the cylindrical member and comprising a belt-shaped member having a starting end, a terminal end and parallel side edges, every point on said starting end being adjacent to a point on said terminal end, the belt-shaped member by itself having the ability to resist both lateral and longitudinal stretching, and being spirally wound in multiple layers, with its side edges disposed substantially in planar spirals, whereby the belt-shaped member of the base has substantially the same width as the belt.
