ABSTRACT:
A measuring system indicates the tension in a belt which transfers power between driving and driven pulleys. A support member has a pair of idler rollers journalled in the proper positions to pinch the belt, thus providing a force on each idler roller. A strain gauge or mechanical spring-and-indicator is used to display the difference in forces at the two idler rollers, which difference is a function of the tension in the belt.
