Abstract

The present invention relates to a belt (1) or a belt segment (1), having a plurality of reinforcement members (11) which run in the longitudinal direction (X) and are arranged parallel to one another and which are embedded at least substantially into an elastomer main body (10), and having at least one connection element (2) which is arranged on an open end (1a) of the belt (1) or of the belt segment (1), wherein the ends of the reinforcement members (11) are each at least substantially exposed by and/or left free of the elastomer main body (10), wherein the ends of the reinforcement members (11) are each connected in a force-fitting manner to at least one clamping element (12), and wherein the clamping elements (12) are held in a form-fitting manner in a connection section (A) by the connection element (2) at least in the longitudinal direction (X). The belt (1) or the belt segment (1) is characterized in that the connection element (2) has at least one extension element (25) which directly adjoins the connection section (A) in the longitudinal direction (X) and which at least sectionally forms an extension section (B) of the connection element (2) in the longitudinal direction (X), and in that the reinforcement members (11) of the open end (1a) of the belt (1) or of the belt segment (1) are received in the extension section (B) by the extension element (25) in such a way that the reinforcement members (11) are guided at least sectionally in a rectilinear manner in the longitudinal direction (X).
