ABSTRACT:
A tensioning device is provided for drive belts, which is formed as a resilient, bendable ring. The ring is arranged to be inserted between lengths of the drive belt and may be positioned in a groove in one of the pulleys of the belt transmission of which the drive belt is an integral part. The ring is designed with such a large circumference that, during expansion, it is squeezed between the lengths of the drive belt, which causes the drive belt to be tensioned.
