ABSTRACT:
A sheave structure adapted to prevent the build-up of soil and other foreign materials in the v-grooves of sheaves utilized with ground engaging implements such as rotary tillers is provided. The sheave is constructed of mating halves, which when joined form a sheave with a v-groove that includes circumferentially spaced apart openings in the v-groove apex, below the belt contact area of the flanges. The openings are provided adjacent to, but below the belt contact area so that the belt pushes against any materials that collect in the v-groove. In this way, the belt serves to break apart the materials and push them through the openings. With this structure, accumulations of materials in the sheave are minimized, belt contact with the sheave flanges is improved and power transmission is enhanced.
