PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To avoid generation of excess restriction in selection of a material of a profile, to easily replace profiles, to suppress strength deterioration of a belt body, to reduce manufacturing costs, to easily cope with change of shapes and dimensions of the belt body or the profiles, and to make the profile hard to detach from the belt body.SOLUTION: A profile 20 has: a profile body 21 which is provided on a rear surface side of a belt body; and a support part 22 which supports the profile body 21, and is attached to a part of a belt longitudinal direction in the belt body. A space 22V into which the part of the belt longitudinal direction in the belt body is engaged, and an insertion port 22z for inserting the part into the space 22V in a belt width direction are formed at the support part 22. Size Lz of the insertion port 22z, which is defined by the shortest separation distance between the respective parts 22b, 22c of the support part 22 is equivalent to thickness D of the belt body on a cross-section orthogonal to the belt longitudinal direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】プロファイルの材料の選択に過度な制約が生じず、プロファイルの交換を容易に行うことができ、ベルト本体の強度低下が抑制され、製造コストを低減することができ、ベルト本体やプロファイルの形状・寸法の変更への対応が容易であり、且つ、プロファイルがベルト本体から外れ難いようにする。【解決手段】プロファイル２０は、ベルト本体の背面側に設けられるプロファイル本体２１と、プロファイル本体２１を支持し、ベルト本体におけるベルト長手方向の一部に取り付けられる支持部２２とを有する。支持部２２には、ベルト本体におけるベルト長手方向の一部が嵌合される空間２２Ｖ、及び、空間２２Ｖに当該一部をベルト幅方向に挿入するための挿入口２２ｚが形成されている。ベルト長手方向と直交する断面において支持部２２の各部２２ｂ，２２ｃの最短離隔距離によって定義される挿入口２２ｚのサイズＬｚは、ベルト本体の厚みＤと同等である。【選択図】図６
