When belts pass around sheaves, top rubbers are stretched and
bottom rubbers are compressed. But between top rubber and bottom
rubbers, there is a neutral layer, whose length keeps invariable. We
call this neutral layer as pitch surface of belt or belt pitch.
The width of pitch surface bp keeps invariable when belts are bent.
Relative height: h/bp0.7 (Standard belt).
On sheave grooves, basic diameter is defined on a cylinder whose
width keeps same with bp.

Characteristics of V-belt
Advantages:
Smooth movements, low noise, reducing impact and vibration;
When overload, belt slipping occurs, which can be used to
protect other components;
Convenient and low cost to manufacture, assemble and maintain;
Applicable for the situation with great center distance;
Disadvantages:
Belt has an inclination to slip on sheaves, so speed ratio varies a
little;
Life of belt is short;
A great center distance will reduce the compactness of structure ;
Additional tension mechanism is needed.
Inapplicable for flammable and explosive situation.
Applications of belt drive:
Allowable max power P<700KW; Allowable belt speed v=5-25m/s; Speed
ratio i<7, commonly 2-4; Efficiency =0.94-0.96. In a combination drive,
Belt drive needs to be placed at the high speed stage.
Sheave of V-belt
1. Requirements of sheave
(1) Light weight;
(2) Convenient to manufacture;
(3) Low interior stress by casting process;
(4) Well-distributed mass, dynamic balance needed if high
rotational speed;
(5) Smooth surface to avoid wear;
(6) Enough precision of groove to distribute load uniformly.
2. Materials for sheave
Commonly: cast iron, HT150 or HT200
High speed situation: cast steel or steel stamping and welding
Small power: cast aluminum or plastic
3. Three types for sheave
Solid type, Web type, Spoke type

Tight side
As power is being transmitted, the tension in the tight side increases
while the tension in the slack decreases.

F1 F0 = F0 F2
F0 = (F1 + F2 )/2
T1 = F1dd1/2 - F2 dd1/2
T1 =( F1- F2 )dd1/2
If F>F,the belt will slip, which will cause the belt wear, and
decrease the efficiency. Then the belt drive fails.
2. Euler formula
To maximize the efficiency of belt drive and avoid slippage
failure of belt drive, we need to investigate the critical situation.

(1) To ensure the ability of belt drive, commonly, we have >120 .
(2) is decided by materials of belt and sheave, status of contact
surface and working environment.
(3) If and are already decided, initial tension F0 plays an very
important role in Fmax.
(4) It is very important to specify F0. If F0 is too small, the belt drive
work under a poor situation and has an inclination to slip. If F0 is
too great, the wear of belt will be very serious.

Some tips:
1. If the basic diameter of sheave
max
is reduced by 10%, the life of belt
1
will be reduced by 50%.
2. If the transmitted power is
Video
increased by 10%, the life of belt
will be reduced by 50%.
3. If the length of belt is reduced by 50%, the life of belt will be
reduced by 50%.

(1) When belt passes around the driving sheave, the belt length will
become a little shorter, and the belt will slip on groove, which will
cause that the speed of belt falls behind the speed of driving sheave a
little.
(2) When belt passes around the driven sheave, the belt length will
become a little longer, and the belt will slip on groove, which will
cause that the speed of belt lead the speed of driven sheave a little.
(1) This will decrease the efficiency of belt drive, and also cause
wear and temperature rise of belt.

2. Explain the three stress components in the belt drive, and find out
the belt position with maximum stress.
