Tight device belt wheel and the second stretcher belt wheel.By using belt solderless wrapped connection starting motor/generator belt wheel, crankshaft pulley, driven
Attachment wheel, the first stretcher belt wheel and the second stretcher belt wheel.Because FEAD system has different operating modes, converted in each mode
The elastic state of lower belt can also convert therewith.Automatic tensioner is as important component in FEAD system, main function
It is the stabilization for maintaining automatic tensioner both ends band section tension, increases the cornerite of attachment wheel, compensation belt is drawn due to tension or abrasion
The variation and decaying risen, compensates the swing of the tensioner arm as caused by engine speed fluctuations, so that belt generation is avoided to skid,
Noise and vibration, the transmission for improving system is horizontal, guarantees the normal work of system.
Current existing automatic tensioner mainly has frictional and fluid pressure type.Friction-type automatic regulating device uses damping piece
(helical spring) provides resistance when shrinking for pilled-in selvedge arm and saves bit by bit energy, to provide power when the extension of slack list arm and releasing energy,
Asymmetric damping is provided by the opposite sliding on damping piece and the surface being in contact with it for the tensioner arm under different working condition.
Frictional stretcher needs biggish installation space, while damping piece can be worn with the working time, lead to damping vibration attenuation,
And then lose effect.Hydraulic auto-tensioner be then by Repeated Compression inside oil liquid damping is generated by damping hole,
Its damping is long using the time compared with frictionally damping.But from generate damping during can generate biggish heat, it is right
The Hydraulic Elements (such as check valve) for generating damping have heat affecting.And flowing can make hydraulic member to oil liquid back and forth in Hydraulic Elements
Part generates abrasion, can make hydraulic component failures for a long time.The document of application number 201410462258.3 discloses a kind of engine
Accessory belt hydraulic tensioner uses wider hydraulic tensioner using current, which is divided into stretcher by cylinder
Interior exocoel, oil liquid stretcher compress and uphold during through between plunger and cylinder gap or check valve flow repeatedly
Damping is generated in inside and outside two chambers, due to using interior exocoel, the automatic tensioner radial dimension of the structure is larger, and oil
Liquid may unevenly cause the bias of plunger because of pressure when flowing out from the gap of plunger and cylinder, influence the use of stretcher
