  2. Pulley - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulley

    A sheave or pulley wheel is a pulley using an axle supported by a frame or shell (block) to guide a cable or exert force. A pulley may have a groove or grooves between flanges around its circumference to locate the cable or belt. The drive element of a pulley system can be a rope, cable, belt, or chain.

  3. Block and tackle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_and_tackle

    A block and tackle [1] [2] or only tackle [3] is a system of two or more pulleys with a rope or cable threaded between them, usually used to lift heavy loads.. The pulleys are assembled to form blocks and then blocks are paired so that one is fixed and one moves with the load.

  4. Mechanical advantage device - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_advantage_device

    Examples of rope and pulley systems illustrating mechanical advantage. Consider lifting a weight with rope and pulleys. A rope looped through a pulley attached to a fixed spot, e.g. a barn roof rafter, and attached to the weight is called a single pulley. It has a mechanical advantage (MA) = 1 (assuming frictionless bearings in the pulley ...

    For the first ratio, 100 lb F of force input results in 600 lb F of force out. In an actual system, the force out would be less than 600 pounds due to friction in the pulleys. The second ratio also yields a MA of 6 in the ideal case but a smaller value in the practical scenario; it does not properly account for energy losses such as rope ...

  6. Block (sailing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_(sailing)

    In sailing, a block is a single or multiple pulley. One or a number of sheaves are enclosed in an assembly between cheeks or chocks. In use, a block is fixed to the end of a line, to a spar, or to a surface. A line (rope) is reeved through the sheaves, and maybe through one or more matching blocks at some far end, to make up a tackle.

  7. Crown block - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_block

    Crown block. A crown block is the stationary section of a block and tackle that contains a set of pulleys or sheaves through which the drill line (wire rope) is threaded or reeved and is opposite and above the traveling block.

  8. Belt (mechanical) - Wikipedia

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

    The angular speed is inversely proportional to size, so the larger the one wheel, the less angular velocity, and vice versa. Actual pulley speeds tend to be 0.5–1% less than generally calculated because of belt slip and stretch. In timing belts, the inverse ratio teeth of the belt contributes to the exact measurement. The speed of the belt is:

  9. Continuously variable transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuously_variable...

    The most common type of CVT uses a V-belt which runs between two variable-diameter pulleys. [1] The pulleys consist of two cone-shaped halves that move together and apart. The V-belt runs between these two halves, so the effective diameter of the pulley is dependent on the distance between the two halves of the pull
