A toothed-belt and toothed-pulley transmission, comprising: a toothed-belt comprising an annular body of elastomeric material having a tension-resistant structure embedded therein; a plurality of deformable teeth formed from an elastomeric material, said teeth being cantilevered from one side of the annular body and having a body comprising side, top and bottom portions; a plurality of grooves separating from one another the individual teeth of said plurality of deformable teeth; a plurality of toothed-pulleys, said toothed-pulleys having a plurality of rigid teeth formed from a rigid material, said toothed-pulley being further characterized by the presence of a plurality of grooves which separate the individual teeth of said plurality of rigid teeth, said grooves having bottom and side portions; means for widening the bodies of the deformable teeth of the toothed-belt, said means being interposed between the tops of the deformable teeth of the toothed-belt and the bottom portion of the pulley grooves; the volume of the space constituting the groove of the toothed-pulley being substantially equal to the volume of the tooth of the toothed-belt destined to be engaged with it, whereby with the insertion of a tooth of the toothed-belt into the groove of the toothed-pulley's toothing, the said interposed means causes a deformation of the tooth of the toothed-belt, such that it is forced to enlarge, thereby bringing into contact practically the entire surface of the tooth of the toothed-belt with the entire surface of the groove of the toothed-pulley. 5. A transmission according to claim 4, wherein the means for widening the bodies of the toothed-belt's teeth presents, corresponding to the top of the tooth of the toothed-belt, at least one cantilevered protuberance, while the toothed-pulley presents a bottom of the groove which is perfectly smooth, whereby the said enlarging of the tooth of the toothed-belt is determined by the squeezing of the said cantilevered protuberance wedged into the body of the tooth of the toothed-belt to come into complete contact with the entire surface of the groove of the toothed-pulley. 6. A transmission according to claim 4, wherein the means for widening the bodies of the toothed-belt's teeth comprises a protuberance cantilevered from the top of the tooth of the toothed-belt, while at the bottom of the groove of the toothed-pulley there is present a housing-slot for said protuberance. 7. A transmission according to claim 6, wherein the height of the protuberance cantilevered from the top of a tooth of the toothed-belt is greater than the depth of the slot present at the bottom of the groove of the toothed-pulley. 8.
