Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of belt installation, and specifically relates to a tool suitable for installing elastic belts in inner grooves of multi-section shock-absorbing pulleys. Background Art
[0002] In the prior art, engine accessory belts typically utilize poly-V belts. These belts utilize a steel or polyester cord with high tensile and fatigue strength as a tension layer, coated with rubber or polyurethane. These belts offer advantages such as low specific gravity, high strength, excellent oil and wear resistance, a high coefficient of friction, and excellent transmission performance. In recent years, to reduce engine costs, many poly-V belts for engine accessories have adopted self-tensioning elastic belts. These elastic belts are typically used in gear trains driven by a single-stage crankshaft pulley.
[0003] During the implementation of the embodiments of the present disclosure, it was found that at least the following problems exist in the related art:
[0004] Accessory belts are currently categorized as either standard or elastic belts. Standard belts are tensioned using either manual or automatic tensioners, while elastic belts require no additional tensioner during use. Instead, the belt stretches when installed, utilizing its own elastic force to achieve tension. However, current elastic belt installation tools are only suitable for installing elastic belts in single-segment damping pulleys or the outermost grooves of multi-segment pulleys. They are not suitable for installing elastic belts in the inner grooves of multi-segment pulleys. Utility Model Content

[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] See also Figure 1-2 The utility model provides a technical solution: a tool suitable for installing an elastic belt in the inner groove of a multi-section shock-absorbing pulley, comprising a crankshaft pulley 1, a water pump pulley 2, an idler pulley A3, a generator pulley 4, an idler pulley B5, an elastic belt 6 and a belt installation tool 7; the belt installation tool 7 is arranged on the smooth pulley surface of the water pump pulley 2, and the inner side of the elastic belt 6 is respectively installed in the outer grooves of the crankshaft pulley 1, the generator pulley 4 and the idler pulley A3; the inner grooves of the idler pulley B5 and the water pump pulley 2 are pressed against the outer side of the elastic belt 6, the idler pulley B5 is arranged between the crankshaft pulley 1 and the generator pulley 4, and presses against the elastic belt 6 between the crankshaft pulley 1 and the generator pulley 4, the water pump pulley 2 is arranged between the crankshaft pulley 1 and the idler pulley A3, and presses against the elastic belt 6 between the crankshaft pulley 1 and the idler pulley A3. In order to reduce the cost of the accessory gear train, this engine adopts elastic belts in both gear trains;
[0019] When assembled, elastic belt 6 is stretched, generating sufficient belt tension. This tension ensures sufficient friction between elastic belt 6 and crankshaft pulley 1, water pump pulley 2, idler pulley A3, generator pulley 4, and idler pulley B5. When the engine is running, crankshaft pulley 1 rotates, driving water pump pulley 2, idler pulley A3, generator pulley 4, and idler pulley B5 to rotate together via elastic belt 6.
[0020] Specifically, the elastic belt 6 is in a tensioned state. Engine accessory belts typically utilize poly-V belts. Poly-V belts utilize a steel or polyester cord with high tensile and fatigue strength as a tensioning layer, coated with rubber or polyurethane. These belts offer advantages such as low specific gravity, high strength, excellent oil and wear resistance, a high coefficient of friction, and excellent transmission performance. In recent years, to reduce engine costs, many engine accessory poly-V belts have adopted self-tensioning elastic belts. These elastic belts are typically used in gear trains driven by a single-stage crankshaft pulley. To install the elastic belt, a belt installation tool is secured to the crankshaft pulley. The elastic belt is first installed on all the accessory pulleys in the gear train, except for the crankshaft pulley. Finally, the elastic belt is hooked onto the belt installation tool secured to the outside of the crankshaft pulley. The crankshaft pulley is rotated, simultaneously driving the belt installation tool. The rotation of the belt installation tool stretches the elastic belt and allows it to pass over the belt ribs on the crankshaft pulley, ultimately securing the elastic belt to the crankshaft pulley.
[0021] Specifically, the belt installation tool 7 includes an ear-shaped body 7-1, a belt rib 7-2, a belt installation surface 7-3, a driving square hole 7-4 and a fixing hole 7-5;
[0022] The belt rib 7-2 is arranged on the inclined surface of the ear-shaped main body 7-1, the belt mounting surface 7-3 is arranged on the outside of the belt rib 7-2, the driving square hole 7-4 and the fixing hole 7-5 are both arranged on the inner side of the ear-shaped main body 7-1, and the driving square hole 7-4 and the fixing hole 7-5 are adjacent to each other.
[0023] Specifically, the belt rib 7-2 is a spiral propulsion structure.
[0024] Specifically, the inclined surface of the belt mounting surface 7-3 coincides with the inclined surface of the ear-shaped main body 7-1, and the long side of the belt mounting surface 7-3 is in the opposite direction to the long side of the ear-shaped main body 7-1.
[0025] Working principle: When the utility model is working, first install the belt installation tool 7 on the water pump pulley 2, then install the elastic belt 6 into the wheel groove of the crankshaft pulley 1, and then install the elastic belt 6 into the wheel groove of the generator pulley 4, and then install the elastic belt 6 into the groove of the idler pulley A3, and then press the elastic belt 6 with the idler pulley B5, and finally hang the elastic belt 6 on the belt installation tool 7, rotate the belt installation tool 7, and since the belt rib 7-2 is a spiral propulsion structure, the belt rib 7-2 is used to push the elastic belt 6 onto the water pump pulley 2, remove the belt installation tool 7 and install and fix the water pump pulley 2 to complete the installation of the elastic belt 6.
