Tensioning and damping element for synchronous belt drive provided by elliptically deformable element with rotational symmetry

摘要

The tensioning and damping element (1) is provided by an annular elastically, visco-elastically and plastically elliptically deformable element with rotational symmetry, having a mantle surface (2) with an inner width of less than the width of the synchronisation belts, with a guide flange (3a,3b) on either side.
