As we all know, the belt is a very important part in the car. Whether it is the engine or other systems, car belts play a very important role, so be sure to protect your car belts. So, in turn, how do we maintain our car belts? Summarized some relevant knowledge about V-belts for automobiles. Here is a brief introduction.
Car belt maintenance method
1. Wear and Aging
First of all, the car mainly observes the aging and wear of the V-ribbed belt of the car. If the wear is serious or the aging degree is high, it should be replaced in time. Continued use may cause great potential safety hazards and also affect the normal life of car owners.
2. Insufficient tension
The phenomenon of belt slippage often occurs. If the car belt is not damaged, it is generally because the belt tension is too small, and self-examination is required. You can use your thumb to press down on the belt between the two pulleys. The pressing force is about 10kg, assuming that the belt thinning is about 10mm, it is considered that the belt tension tapping is appropriate. If the reduction is too large, the belt tension is considered insufficient. Assuming there is little belt reduction, the belt tension is considered excessive.
But it must be noted here that the tension of the multi-ribbed V-belt should not be too large, which will cause certain damage to the components, so it is very necessary to have a suitable tension.
3. Preventive measures
If the V-ribbed belt of the car is aging or seriously damaged, it is recommended to go to a car repair shop for replacement. It is very important to ensure the most suitable tension, otherwise the car parts will not work properly. The belt wears seriously, the contact area between the belt and the pulley decreases sharply, and it is easy to break.
Car maintenance is defined to prevent wear and aging of car engine belts. There are few bands that define the front of the machine, and each band carries the main result. On the proposed machine, various auxiliary machines are driven by belts, such as air reducer, power steering oil pump, alternator, etc. If the belt is broken, or it may slip, the relevant auxiliary machinery will lose its function, or its function will be reduced, and the normal operation of the car will be affected.
The self-examination method of the car V-belt is very simple. First, check the tension of the belt. At this point, press down on the belt between the two pulleys with your thumb. The pressing force is about 10kg, assuming that the belt thinning is about 10mm, it is considered that the belt tension tapping is appropriate. If the reduction is too large, the belt tension is considered insufficient. Assuming there is little belt reduction, the belt tension is considered excessive. In the absence of tension, the belt will slide freely. When the tension is too large, the bearings of various auxiliary machines are easily damaged. Therefore, the relevant adjustment nuts or bolts should be loosened to adjust the tension of the belt to the best state.
In addition, car maintenance must also pay attention to the wear and tear of the belt. The old belt is severely worn, which drastically reduces the contact area between the belt and the pulley. At this time, just press the belt hard, and the belt will sink deeply into the groove of the pulley. There is also an aging problem with V-ribbed belt rubber. If the belt rubber is seriously aging, it is necessary to replace the new belt in time.
