2. Serpentine belt - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serpentine_belt

   Serpentine belt (foreground) and dual vee belt (background) on a bus engine Belt tensioner providing pressure against the back of a serpentine belt in an automobile engine. A serpentine belt (or drive belt [1]) is a single, continuous belt used to drive multiple peripheral devices in an automotive engine, such as an alternator, power steering pump, water pump, air conditioning compressor, air ...

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. Table saw - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_saw

   Drive mechanisms can be a single v-belt, a serpentine belt or multiple v-belts. Hybrid saws have a 1.5-or-2 hp (1.1-or-1.5 kW) motor and thus the ability to run on a standard 15- or 20-ampere 120-volt North American household circuit, while a cabinet saw's 3 hp (2.2 kW) or larger motor requires a 240-volt supply.

5. 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:

6. Tensioner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tensioner

   Chain tensioner on a single-speed bicycle Belt tensioner on a belt-drive bicycle Hydraulic bolt tensioner Hydraulic Puller-tensioner . A tensioner is a device that applies a force to create or maintain tension. The force may be applied parallel to, as in the case of a hydraulic bolt tensioner, or perpendicular to, as in the case of a spring ...

7. Prony brake - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prony_brake

   The term "brake horsepower" is one measurement of power derived from this method of measuring torque. (Power is calculated by multiplying torque by rotational speed.) [1] Essentially the measurement is made by wrapping a cord or belt around the output shaft of the engine and measuring the force transferred to the belt through friction. The ...
