Guide element e.g. clamping rail, for traction drive of internal-combustion engine, has traction unit implemented as belts with magnetic coating, where position adjustment of magnets are performed for traction unit

摘要

The element (6) has magnets (12, 13) e.g. permanent magnets or electromagnets, indirectly or directly attached to the element, where the guide element is attached to an empty side (8) and a driving side (11) of a traction drive (1) and rigidly arranged around a pivot point (9). A position adjustment of the magnets is performed for a traction unit (3). The traction unit is implemented as chain or belts with magnetic coating or reinforcing, where the element is made of aluminum or plastic material.
