Systems are provided for a belt tensioner. In one example, the belt tensioner comprises a fluid chamber divided into a first portion and a second portion via a dividing wall. An eccentric housing, which defines the fluid chamber, rotates relative to the dividing wall based on a spring force and a belt force.

A rack, especially for photovoltaic modules, consists of a rounded, shaped guide, on which a main frame is fitted via at least three bearing-fitted grips, with an upper frame being attached to the top of the main frame in at least two support points, the upper frame being further connected to the main frame via linear actuators. The main frame is based on the guide by means of track rollers, whose number is equal to the number of support points, and at least two anchoring elements are located on the outer perimeter of the guide, the anchoring elements arranged in at least two points within an angular distance not smaller than 15 degrees from each other. A driving chain is anchored in a non-stationary fashion on anchoring elements to the guide, from the outer side of the guide and in the lower part of the guide, and a driving mechanism is attached to the main frame, the driving mechanism consisting of a driving toothed element, connected to a motor, and of tension rollers.

A tensioner comprising a base, a ring engaged with the base, the ring rotatable about a center “C” within a base opening, a pulley journalled to the ring, a pivot arm pivotally engaged with the ring, a pulley journalled to the pivot arm, a torsion spring disposed between the ring and the pivot arm for urging the pivot arm, a damping assembly frictionally disposed between the base and the ring, a spring applying a normal load to the damping material, and the damping material having a resistance in the range of greater than 0Ω up to approximately 10,000Ω.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a drive belt tensioner configured to adjust tension in a drive belt of a blower assembly for a heating, ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system. The drive belt tensioner includes a mounting bracket configured to couple directly to a blower housing that is configured to house a blower of the blower assembly. The drive belt tensioner further includes an idler pulley configured to contact the drive belt. A position of the idler pulley is adjustable relative to the mounting bracket to enable adjustment of the tension in the drive belt.

Two-arm tensioner for an accessory drive of an internal combustion engine, including a first arm and a second arm rigidly connected to each other and rotating around a common rotation axis (A), a first pulley connected to the first arm and rotatable around its own first axis (C), a second pulley connected to the second arm and rotatable around its own second axis (E), in which the first pulley is carried by a working arm linked to the first arm and rotatable with respect to it around a third axis (B) distinct from the first axis (D), and an elastic element configured to exert on the working arm an elastic force tending to bring the first pulley closer to the second pulley, the third axis being inside the first pulley.

An auto tensioner is supported on one side surface of a cylinder block 4-(the outer surface of a front wall part) via a bracket. The auto tensioner includes: a tension pulley that is pressed against a belt; an arm that rotatably supports the tension pulley and is swingably supported to the bracket; and a hydraulic actuator that is supported by the arm and bracket to adjust the pressing force of the tension pulley to the belt using a predetermined position of the arm as a supporting point. The hydraulic actuator is disposed outside the water pump 8-on the front wall part of the cylinder block.

A projection-welding spinning tensioner includes a first spoke and a second spoke. The first spoke includes a first rim end, a first plate end and a first center plate end. The second spoke includes a second rim end, a second plate end and a second center plate end. The first and second spokes have a same structure and are arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner. Several projection-welding points are disposed on opposing surfaces of the first plate end and/or the second plate end, the projection-welding points are annularly arranged at an interval, the projection-welding points are arranged in a form of a concentric circle to form a least two annular arrangements, welded fixation of the first plate end and the second plate end is completed through the projection-welding points. A cavity groove for holding a bearing is formed inside after the first and second center plate ends are docked.

To provide a vehicle body structure for an autonomously traveling vehicle that is distinguished for maintainability.

A vehicle body structure (1) for an autonomously traveling vehicle that travels on wheels (3) provided on a chassis (2) includes side frames (4R), (4L) that extend in a chassis longitudinal direction on both sides of the chassis with respect to a chassis width direction, first drive units (20) in each of which a drive motor (5) that is for driving the wheel (3), a reduction gear (6), and a drive shaft (7) that drives the wheel (3) are integrally configured, and second drive units (30) which each rotatably hold a drive shaft (7) that drives the wheel (3). The vehicle body structure (1) is characterized in that the first drive units (20) and the second drive units (30) are each provided so as to be integrally mountable in and dismountable from the same side frames.
