ABSTRACT:
An articulated-arm assembly for a friction gear of an internal combustion engine that is equipped with belt-driven auxiliary assemblies. The assembly comprises a friction wheel which is urged into engagement with a belt of the auxiliary belt drive, and an articulated arm which guides the friction wheel and can be pivoted about an axis. This arrangement provides a compact articulation that uses existing installation space for the mounting of the articulated-arm assembly. The articulated arm is provided on a mounting unit with a pivot actuator, and preferably with a fixing device configured as a multi-part housing that permits the entire articulated-arm assembly to be mounted on the engine.
