ABSTRACT:
A machine is presented for measuring normal and tangential belt forces versus angular position for a flat belt drive. A normal force transducer which is designed like a curved beam and the tangential force transducer which is designed like a cantilever with head are used as contact pulleys. The transducer pulley is used as either a driving pulley or a driven pulley. Each pulley is mounted on a carriage plate which slides with linear bearings. Means are provided for applying a predetermined belt initial tension through the sliding carriage plate and means are also provided for applying torque load through a torque disk.
