| Video Discription | Flat Belt Drive Flat belts have a flat contact surface which rides on a pulley that also has a flat contact surface. Power transmission depends solely on the coefficient of friction of the belt material. So there should be adequate grip over the pulley to commence transmission. Flat belts tend to slip while transmitting higher load torque but it’s very cheap and easy to manufacture and maintain. Flat belts are used in high speed systems with relatively lower torque transmission. In order to reduce the load on shaft bearings, flat belts slightly longer than the required precise length is used so that the belt sags a little. The side where the belt sags is called as slack side and the side where the belt is tensed is called as tight side. Slack side and tight side for a belt and pulley mechanism depend on the direction of rotation and the position of the driving pulley. Generally belt drives are designed to have upper slack side so that a maximum length of contact arc with the pulley can be maintained for a better grip. But this condition cannot be advantageous at all circumstances and belts tend to elongate over repeated usage so belt tensioning rollers are used on both sides of the belt so that the rollers can be repositioned to tighten the belt in proportion to the slack realized. fYzr9MQeNHM |
