Abstract

A belt tensioner for a power transmission belt (12) is provided that operates on an endless path and that utilizes asymmetrical motion control. The belt tensioner (14) has an arm (18) with a belt engaging section (22) and a drum section, a support member (16) for securing the tensioner (14) relative to the belt (12), where the arm (18) pivots about the support member (16), and a tension spring (20) that urges the arm (18) to pivot about the support member (16) in a first direction and urges the belt engaging section (22) against the belt (12) with a force to tension the belt. The belt tensioner (14) further comprises a cavity (26) between the arm (18) and the support member (16) and a bushing (30) comprising a bowed flange (32) positioned in the cavity (26).

Claims (10)

1. A tensioner for a power transmission belt (12) that operates on an endless path, the tensioner (14) characterized by:
an arm (18) comprising a belt engaging section (22) and a drum section;
a support member (16) for securing the tensioner (14) relative to the belt (12), the arm (18) pivoting about the support member (16);
a spring (20) that urges the arm (18) to pivot about the support member (16) in a first direction and urges the belt engaging section (22) against the belt (12) with a force to tension the belt;
a cavity (26) between the arm (18) and the support member (16); and a bushing (30) comprising a bowed flange (32) positioned in the cavity (26).
2. The tensioner of claim 1, the bushing (30) further characterized by cutout sections (34) in the bowed flange (32).
3. tensioner of claim 1, characterized in that the bushing (30) is made of a nylon material, or is made of a moldable material.
4. The tensioner of any of claims 1-3, characterized in that the bowing of the flange (32) biases the bushing (30) axially along a longitudinal axis, especially against the arm (18).
5. The tensioner of any of claims 1-4, characterized in that the bushing (30) has an inner surface (33B) with a fixed diameter and an outer surface (33A) that is tapered.
6. The tensioner of any of claims 1-5, characterized in that the spring (20) is a flat, spiral wound spring, and may comprise a free wound end, wherein one end of the spring is axially displaced from the free wound end.
7. The tensioner of any of claims 1-6, characterized in that the support member (16) comprises a housing (19) for the spring (20), and/or in that the support member (16) comprises a hub (28) about which the arm (18) pivots.
8. The tensioner of any of claims 1-7, characterized in that the belt engaging section (22) includes a pulley.
9. A method of utilizing a tensioner (14) for a power transmission belt (12) that operates on an endless path, the method characterized by the steps of:
providing an arm (18) comprising a belt engaging section (22) and a drum section;
providing a support member (16) for securing the tensioner (14) relative to the belt (12), the arm (18) pivoting about the support member (16);
providing a spring (20) that urges the arm (18) to pivot about the support member (16) in a first direction and urges the belt engaging section (22) against the belt (12) with a force to tension the belt;
providing a cavity (26) between the arm (18) and the support member (16); and providing a bushing (30) comprising a bowed flange (32) positioned in the cavity (26).
10. ~A tensioner for a power transmission belt (12) that operates on an endless path, the tensioner (14) comprising an arm (18) including a belt engaging section (22) and a drum section, a support member (16) securing the tensioner (14) relative to the belt (12), the support member (16) comprising a hub (28) having a longitudinal axis and being fixed from movement relative to the belt engaging section -11-~

(22), the hub (28) moveably holding the arm (18), a spring (20) operatively interconnected to the arm (18) and the support member (16), the spring (20) being configured to urge the belt engaging section (22) relative to the support member (16) and against the belt (12) with a force to tension the belt, the improvement wherein the tensioner is further characterized by:
a cavity (26) between the arm (18) and the support member (16); and a bushing (30) comprising a bowed flange (32) positioned in the cavity (26).
