Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a belt driven system. The belt driven system may include a master pulley, a slave pulley, a belt around the master pulley and the slave pulley, a tension pulley configured to tension the belt, and a position adjusting device configured to automatically adjust a position of the tension pulley based on an interaction of the tension pulley and the belt.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A belt driven system, comprising:
a tensioner for tensioning a belt, including:
a base; and
a motor mounting bracket fixed on the base and configured to pivotally mount a motor via a pivot shaft and lock the motor via at least one tension screw, wherein
the motor mounting bracket is an L-shaped bracket including a first side plate and a second side plate,
the base is fixed to the first side plate,
an end surface of the motor is pivotally mounted on the second side plate and is locked relative to the second side plate,
a side end of the second side plate includes a ledge extending towards an axial direction of the motor,
the ledge is provided with a screw hole for mounting the at least one tension screw,
the pivot shaft is parallel to a central axis of the motor,
the at least one tension screw is screwed towards the motor,
an end of the at least one tension screw presses against a side wall of the motor,
the motor pivots away from a slave pulley of the belt driven system around the pivot shaft upon the at least one tension screw being tensioned,
the motor and the motor mounting bracket are relatively locked by one or more fastening bolts,
the end surface of the motor is provided with one or more mounting holes, the motor mounting bracket is provided with one or more through-holes at one or more positions corresponding to the one or more mounting holes, and the one or more fastening bolts are screwed into the one or more mounting holes through the one or more through-holes, the one or more through-holes include one circular hole and at least one waist-shaped hole, and
one of the one or more the fastening bolts is configured to act as the pivot shaft when said fastening bolt is screwed into one of the one or more mounting holes through the circular hole and is not fastened tightly, and when the motor rotates around the pivot shaft, a stud of each of the one or more fastening bolts screwed into the one or more corresponding mounting hole through each of the at least one waist-shaped hole slides in each of the at least one waist-shaped hole.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the second side plate is provided with the one or more through-holes at one or more positions corresponding to the one or more mounting holes.

3. The system of claim 2 , wherein a count of the one or more mounting holes is larger than 1, and the one or more mounting holes are provided along a circumference on the end surface of the motor.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circular hole is provided close to a side of the second side plate opposite to the side end with the ledge.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the circular hole is provided close to a side of the second side plate opposite to the side end with the ledge.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the belt driven system includes:
a master pulley;
the slave pulley including an elastic part; and
the belt connecting an outer periphery of the master pulley and an outer periphery of the slave pulley,
wherein the elastic part is configured to deform under a tension force of the belt to allow the outer periphery of the slave pulley to move towards the master pulley.
