Question

In V-belt drive, belt touches________ .

वी-बेल्ट ड्राइव में, बेल्ट ________ को छूती है।

A.

At bottom

B.

At sides only

C.

Both at bottom and sides

D.

Could touch anywhere

Answer ( Option B)

At sides only

Solution

In a V-belt drive, the belt makes contact only at sides of the groove of pulleyas shown in the figure.

A small groove angle will require more force to pull the belt out of the groove which will result in loss of power and excessive belt wear due to friction and heat. Hence, the selected groove angle is a compromise between the two. Usually the groove angle of 320 to 380 are used.

Hence, the correct option is (B).
