2. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(mechanical)

   The ideal belt is that of the lowest tension that does not slip in high loads. Belt tensions should also be adjusted to belt type, size, speed, and pulley diameters. Belt tension is determined by measuring the force to deflect the belt a given distance per inch (or mm) of pulley.

3. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capstan_equation

   A flat belt has an effective angle of =. The material of a V-belt or multi-V serpentine belt tends to wedge into the mating groove in a pulley as the load increases, improving torque transmission. [6] For the same power transmission, a V-belt requires less tension than a flat belt, increasing bearing life. [5]

4. Solar System belts - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_System_belts

   Solar System belts are asteroid and comet belts that orbit the Sun in the Solar System in interplanetary space. [1] [2] The Solar System belts' size and placement are mostly a result of the Solar System having four giant planets: Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune far from the sun. The giant planets must be in the correct place, not too close ...

5. Belt (clothing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belt_(clothing)

   The ends of a belt are free; and a buckle forms the belt into a loop by securing one end to another part of the belt, at or near the other end. Often, the resulting loop is smaller than the hips. Belts come in many lengths because of the variety in waist sizes, and most belts can be adjusted at the buckle to suit the wearer's waist.

6. Prony brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prony_brake

   An alternate mechanism is to clamp a lever to the shaft and measure using a single balance. The torque is then related to the lever length, shaft diameter and measured force. The device is generally used over a range of engine speeds to obtain power and torque curves for the engine, since there is a non-linear relationship between torque and ...

7. Obi (sash) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obi_(sash)

   An obi is a belt of varying size and shape worn with both traditional Japanese clothing and uniforms for Japanese martial arts styles. Originating as a simple thin belt in Heian period Japan, the obi developed over time into a belt with a number of different varieties, with a number of different sizes and proportions, lengths, and methods of tying.
