How does a belt drive work? (sliding & elastic slip easily explained | slack side | tight side)

[@iceboundflame]

Very helpful and found lots more details in your follow up videos as well. Thank you!

Good work, thank You!

[@tec-science]

you're welcome. Thank you!

[@weshern2998]

informative and easy to understand

[@tec-science]

Thank you!

Another great video. Do you have any plans to make videos about chain drives or ball screws or trapesoidal screws?

[@tec-science]

Thank you. Not yet, but I keep it in mind.

Good job.

@@tec-science What force is being applied to the pulley shafts? How do you calculate the tension that must be applied to the belt to prevent slippage?

@@Junior_Mech I hope you find insight in these videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oJK3gZSBirt2hs0 kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX7caH6hZ7KBlZI

its just a belt drive. my walk behind lawn mower still works this way.

At first I also thought that a belt drive is simply a belt that is placed around a pulley - that's it. Until you have to dimension such a thing yourself: rope friction equation, centrifugal forces, bending stresses, elastic slip, optimum belt speed, pre-tension, belt tensioner systems, etc. I will make a whole series of videos on this.
