ABSTRACT:
A belt tensioner imparts tension to a belt of a machine and includes a support base and a fastener for adjustably securing the support base to the machine. A shaft is secured to the support base and an eccentric hub is operably coupled to the shaft for at least partial rotation about the shaft. A spring couples the eccentric hub to the support base. A pulley is rotatably coupled to the eccentric hub and engageable with the belt wherein engagement of the pulley with the belt and displacement on the support base on the machine at least partially rotates the eccentric hub about the shaft against the spring.
