Abstract

A belt device includes an outer peripheral layer having one or more conductive wires engaged in the inner portion for eliminating static electricity. The outer peripheral layer includes a number of longitudinal fibers arranged parallel to the conductive wire, or a number of lateral fibers arranged parallel to the conductive wire. An inner peripheral layer may be engaged with the outer peripheral layer. The inner peripheral layer also includes one or more conductive wires for eliminating static electricity, and includes a number of longitudinal fibers arranged parallel to the conductive wire or a number of lateral fibers arranged parallel to the conductive wire.

Claims

1. A belt device comprising:

an outer peripheral layer including at least one conductive wire engaged therein for eliminating static electricity.

2. The belt device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said outer peripheral layer includes a plurality of longitudinal fibers arranged parallel to said at least one conductive wire.

3. The belt device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said outer peripheral layer includes a plurality of lateral fibers arranged parallel to said at least one conductive wire.

4. The belt device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said outer peripheral layer includes an outer covering layer made of carbon material.

5. The belt device as claimed in claim 1 further comprising an inner peripheral layer engaged with said outer peripheral layer.

6. The belt device as claimed in claim 5, wherein said inner peripheral layer includes at least one conductive wire engaged therein for eliminating static electricity.

7. The belt device as claimed in claim 6, wherein said inner peripheral layer includes a plurality of longitudinal fibers arranged parallel to said at least one conductive wire.

8. The belt device as claimed in claim 6, wherein said inner peripheral layer includes a plurality of lateral fibers arranged parallel to said at least one conductive wire.

9. The belt device as claimed in claim 5 further comprising at least one intermediate layer disposed between said inner and said outer peripheral layers.
