    摘要: Disclosed is a tensioner for use in an engine. The tensioner comprises a fixed structure that fixes to the engine. A movable structure is mounted for movement relative to the fixed structure in a belt tensioning and opposite directions. A pulley member has a belt engaging surface that engages with the belt. One of the fixed and movable structures has an interior surface defining a fluid chamber containing fluid and the other includes a chamber dividing structure. The chamber dividing structure defines first and second chamber portions on opposing sides thereof. A biasing element biases the movable structure in the tensioning direction to tension the belt. Relative movement of the movable structure in the tensioning direction displaces fluid from the first to the second chamber portion and increases fluid pressure in the first chamber portion and decreases fluid pressure in the second chamber portion, and the reverse occurs during movement of the movable structure in the opposite direction. The chamber dividing structure allows the fluid to flow between the chamber portions in a restricted manner so as to yieldingly resist the relative movement of the movable structure and thereby dampen such movement. The chamber dividing structure is constructed such that the fluid flow restriction is greater when the movable structure moves in the opposite direction than in the tensioning direction, thereby providing the movable structure with greater resistance to movement in the opposite direction than in the tensioning direction.

    摘要: A belt tensioning device having an improved damping mechanism for damping movements of the pivoted structure rotatably carrying the pulley with respect to the fixed structure. The damping mechanism includes a strap and a ring mounted on their respective fixed and pivoted structures and with respect to one another such that the strap engages the ring with a gripping action sufficient to provide (1) a relatively high resistance to frictional sliding movement between the strap and ring in one direction correspond to the direction of untensioning of the belt with the pulley and (2) a relatively low resistance to frictional sliding movement between the strap and ring in an opposite direction corresponding to the direction of belt tensioning. A spring is included in the mount for enabling the relatively high resistance and relatively low resistance to vary in response to the existence of predetermined vibrations such that the gripping action between strap and ring is relieved sufficient to enable movement therebetween in both directions to take place at substantially reduced resistance levels.

    摘要: A belt tensioner in which the bearing for mounting the pulley carrying pivoted structure on the fixed structure comprises a frustoconical sleeve bearing having a frustoconical exterior surface and a frustoconical interior surface engaged between annular portions of the two structures. The frustoconical surface of one of the annular portions is (1) formed on the exterior periphery thereof and (2) disposed in engagement with the interior bearing frustoconical surface. The one annular portion has a load center point disposed on the pivotal axis of the pivoted structure. The other annular portion has a load center point disposed on a line disposed within a plane passing through the pivotal axis of the pivoted structure and the rotational axis of the pulley corresponding to the one line of the two lines of intersection of the bearing frustoconical surface with the plane through which the radially inward force component transmitted by the pivoted structure is applied to the sleeve bearing. The load center points are positioned such that the radially inward force component transmitted by the pivoted structure and resisted by the fixed structure is transmitted generally from one load center point to the other along a line extending between the points which line is perpendicular to and bisects the one line so that the radially inward force component transmitted by the pivoted structure to the sleeve bearing is distributed evenly throughout the axial extent of the sleeve bearing.

A hub structure is carried by the armature assembly outwardly of the housing for rotation therewith about the armature axis. A coil spring is disposed in operative relation between the alternator pulley and the hub structure for transmitting the driven rotational movements of the alternator pulley by the serpentine belt to the hub structure such that the armature assembly is rotated in the same direction as the alternator pulley while being capable of instantaneous relative resilient rotational movements in opposite directions with respect to the alternator pulley during the driven rotational movement thereof.

    摘要: A belt tensioner comprising a pivoted structure carrying a pulley for rotation about a rotational axis and mounted on a fixed structure for pivotal movement between an increased range of angular movement. The pulley is operatively positioned with respect to its rotational axis and the pivotal axis of the pivoted structure such that the lever arm to the pivotal axis through which the generally constant belt load force acts on the pivoted structure increases at a decreasing rate and then decreases at an increasing rate throughout the range of movement of the pulley between its first and second positions in a direction toward the second position. The spring assembly is operatively associated with the pivoted structure so as to apply a spring torque to the pivoted structure which increases at a decreasing rate and then decreases at an increasing rate throughout the range of movement of the pulley between its first and second positions in a direction toward said second position.

    摘要: In a belt tensioning device of the type including a fixed structure, a pivoted structure mounted with respect to the fixed structure for pivotal movement about a first axis between first and second limiting positions, a belt engaging pulley rotatably carried by the pivoted structure for rotational movement about a second axis parallel with the first axis and a torsional coil spring acting between the fixed and pivoted structures for resiliently biasing the pivoted structure to move in a direction away from the first limiting position toward the second limiting position with a spring force which decreases as the pivoted structure is moved in a direction away from the first position toward the second position. The device is provided either with an elastomeric damping body for (1) damping by elastomeric material displacement normal low amplitude operating movements of the pivoted structure and (2) damping sequentially by high friction surface sliding abnormal high amplitude movements of the pivoted structure beyond those which are damped by the elastomeric material displacement with a damping force which decreases as the pivoted structure is moved in a direction away from the first position toward the second position or a Zytel damping body for damping by friction surface sliding substantially all movements of said pivoted structure with a damping force which decreases as the pivoted structure is moved in a direction away from the first position toward the second position.
