Abstract: Accessory drives for an internal combustion engine of a vehicle are disclosed that have a first pulley mounted on the drive shaft, a second pulley mounted on the shaft of an electric machine, a belt cooperating with the first and second pulleys, an adjustable-position pulley, and a tensioner. The tensioner has a first tensioning pulley and a second tensioning pulley and at least one spring that biases the first and second tensioning pulleys into contact with respective branches of the belt. The adjustable-position pulley cooperates with the belt to vary the installation tension thereof and is one of the first and second tensioning pulleys, one of the first and second pulleys, or another pulley in the accessory drive.
