Talking Points

Belts are used to transmit power from one shaft to another where it is not necessary to maintain an exact speed ratio between the two shafts.

Two famous types of belts are: Flat Belts. V-Belts.

Belts? & Types of Belts

Multiple V-belt drive Flat belt drive

4

Power losses due to slip and creep amount is ranging from 3.0 to 5.0 percent for most belt drives.

In this course, it will be assumed that the shafts are parallel.

Belt Design

It involves either the proper belt selection to transmit a required power or the determination of the power that may be transmitted by a given flat belt or by one V-belt. In the first case, the belt dimension is unknown, while in the second case, the belt dimension is known. The belt thickness is assumed for both cases.

The power transmitted by a belt drive is a function of the belt tension and belt speed.

The maximum tension in the tight side of the belt depends on the allowable stress of the belt material. The allowable tensile stress for leather belting is usually 2.0 to 3.45 MPa, and the allowable stress for rubber belting will run from 1.0 to 1.7 MPa, depending on the quality of the material. Leather belting can be obtained in various single ply thicknesses. Double and triple ply belts are also available.

The following formula is for determining the value of 2, for both flat & V-belts applies when the width & thickness of the belt are known.

The quantity mV2 is due to centrifugal force, which tends to cause the belt to leave the pulley and reduce the power that may be transmitted.

An open belt drive delivers 15 kW when the motor

pulley, which is 300 mm in diameter, turns at 1750

rev/min. The belt is 10 mm thick and 150 mm wide

and has a density of 970 kg/m3. The driven pulley,

which is 1200 mm diameter, has an angle of contact

of 200°.What is the maximum stress in the belt

assuming a coefficient of friction 0.3 for both

pulleys?

Here, we have the 2nd case, where the belt dimensions are known. So, we use the following

formula:

m = b t = 0.15 x 0.01 x 970 = 1.455 kg/m.

V = dn/60 = ( x 0.300 x 1750)/60 = 27.489 m/s. for flat-belt = 180.

A V-belt drive transmits 11 KW at 900 rev/min of the

smaller sheave. The sheaves pitch diameters are 173 mm

and 346 mm. The center distance is 760 mm. If the

maximum permissible working force per belt is 560 N,

determine the number of belts required if the coefficient

of friction is 0.15 and the groove angle of the sheaves is

34°. The belt mass is 0.194 Kg/m.
