Abstract

A method of marking a belt comprising the steps of selecting a first thermoplastic layer that is optically distinguishable from a belt body, joining the first thermoplastic layer to the belt body, joining a second thermoplastic material layer to the first thermoplastic layer, etching the first thermoplastic layer in order to contrast the first thermoplastic layer with the belt body, and etching the second thermoplastic layer in order to contrast the second thermoplastic layer with the first thermoplastic layer.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A method of marking a belt comprising the steps of: 
 selecting a first thermoplastic layer that is optically distinguishable from a belt body;    joining the first thermoplastic layer to the belt body;    joining a second thermoplastic material layer to the first thermoplastic layer;    etching the first thermoplastic layer in order to contrast the first thermoplastic layer with the belt body; and    etching the second thermoplastic layer in order to contrast the second thermoplastic layer with the first thermoplastic layer.    
   
   
       2 . The method as in  claim 1 , wherein etching comprises cutting a pattern into the first thermoplastic layer.  
   
   
       3 . The method as in  claim 1 , wherein etching comprises cutting a pattern into the second thermoplastic layer.  
   
   
       4 . The method as in  claim 2 , wherein etching comprises using a laser light.  
   
   
       5 . The method as in  claim 3 , wherein etching comprises using a laser light.
