Abstract

PURPOSE:To restrict a degree of resonance, by interposing an intermediate toothed pulley between a driving pulley and a driven pulley, the pulley having teeth of which tip configuration is not circular and having tooth tip portions at the minimum distance from the center of the pulley and tooth tip portions at the maximum distance thereform. CONSTITUTION:An oil pump pulley 4 having non-circular tooth-tips is interposed between a cam shaft pulley 1 and a crank shaft pulley 2. The oil pump pulley 4 is so disposed that an end E or F of a short diameter portion E-F thereof is located at a position where it is meshed with a belt 3 when tension of the belt 3 is maximized and an end C or D of a long diameter portion C-D thereof is at a position where it is meshed with the belt 3 when tension of the belt 3 is minimized. With the arrangement, since an amplitude of change in tension of an overall belt 3 is made smaller, a degree of resonance can be restricted.

When the above-mentioned timing belt mechanism is used between the crankshaft and the camshaft in a car's valve train, for example, the tension of the timing belt fluctuates as the load on the driven camshaft fluctuates. At large resonance points, the belt vibrates violently, resulting in poor engagement between the belt and the pulleys. This effect causes a lag between the rotation of the crankshaft and the timing of valve operation, causing rotational fluctuations. Furthermore, the meshing between the belt and the pulley becomes insufficient, increasing the load on the teeth of the belt, which has a negative effect on the life of the teeth of the belt.

Therefore, it is necessary for such a timing belt mechanism to take measures to suppress resonance.

According to the present invention having the above configuration, since the tip of the teeth of the intermediate toothed pulley at the minimum distance is located at the center position of the meshing portion with the belt at the position where the tension of the belt is maximum, the entire length of the belt is contracts, so the increase in tension is suppressed and the maximum value of tension fluctuation becomes smaller. On the other hand, at the position where the belt tension is minimum, the tooth tips of the intermediate toothed pulley with the longest distance are located at the center of the meshing part with the belt, so the overall length of the belt is elongated and the belt tension increases. Therefore, the minimum value of tension fluctuation becomes larger.
