6. Idler Pulleys
Idler pulleys are used to guide or tension the belt or chain in a system.
What is a Sheave on a Pulley?
1. Definition
A sheave is a wheel or roller with a groove used with a belt or chain to change the direction of force.
2. Function
The sheave on a pulley helps guide the belt or chain and provides a point of contact for it to run on.
3. Material
Sheaves are typically made from metal or durable plastic to withstand the forces applied to them.
4. Size
The size of the sheave can vary depending on the application and the load it needs to support.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance of the sheave is essential to ensure smooth operation and prevent wear and tear.
What are Sheaves used for?
1. Change Direction
Sheaves are used to change the direction of a force in a system.
2. Increase Mechanical Advantage
By using multiple sheaves, the mechanical advantage of a system can be increased.
3. Guide Belts or Chains
Sheaves are used to guide belts or chains along a specific path in a system.
4. Provide Tension
Sheaves can be used to provide tension in a belt or chain system for optimal performance.
5. Support Loads
Sheaves are designed to support the loads applied to them in various applications.
6. Reduce Friction
Sheaves help reduce friction between the belt or chain and the pulley, increasing efficiency.
Process of Sheave Pulley
