A heating ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a support structure having a mounting rail, a first mounting bracket coupled to the mounting rail and configured to be adjustably positioned along a first axis of the mounting rail, and a second mounting bracket directly coupled to the first mounting bracket. The second mounting bracket is configured to support a fan motor mounted thereto, the second mounting bracket is configured to be adjustably positioned along a second axis of the first mounting bracket, and the second axis of the first mounting bracket is transverse to the first axis of the mounting rail.

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 tensioner comprising a base having a shaft and having a radially projecting tab therefrom, a pivot arm pivotally engaged with the shaft about a pivot axis A-A, a torsion spring disposed between the base and the pivot arm, the torsion spring in a compressed state, a pulley journalled to the pivot arm, a first axial member extending from the pivot arm, the first axial member comprising a radially projecting portion adjacent to a radially receding portion, and the radially projecting portion engaging the radially projecting tab in a first pivot arm position and the radially receding portion cooperating with the radially projecting tab in a second pivot arm position.

A steering system includes a motor, a rack shaft, and a nut that is screw-thread on the rack shaft via a plurality of balls. The steering system further includes a reduction mechanism having a driving pulley, a driven pulley, a belt, and an idler pulley that applies tension to the belt. The steering system further includes a housing that houses the motor, the rack shaft, the nut, and the reduction mechanism. Compressive rigidity in an axial direction is set to vary between a near-end area and a far-end area of the housing. The idler pulley is provided so as to contact a portion of the belt which is loosened when end contact occurs at an axial end of the housing where the compressive rigidity is set to a larger value.

A chain tensioning device which combats natural build-up of chain slack. In controlling the chain slack, the torque at which a chain jumps occurs is delayed resulting in a higher jump torque performance.

In an aspect, a tensioner is provided for an endless drive member, and includes a shaft-and-base unit, a tensioner arm, a pulley, and a tensioner spring. The shaft-and-base unit is mountable to be stationary relative to an engine, and includes a fastener aperture for a fastener. The tensioner arm is pivotable relative to the shaft-and-base unit about a tensioner arm axis. The pulley is rotatably mounted to the tensioner arm for rotation and is engageable with an endless drive member. The tensioner spring is positioned to urge the tensioner arm in a first direction relative to the shaft-and-base unit. The tensioner spring includes a plurality of coils that are arranged generally helically about a longitudinal axis and are spaced radially from one another and generally increase in distance away from the axis in a longitudinal direction.

A heating ventilation, and/or air conditioning (HVAC) system includes a support structure having a mounting rail, a first mounting bracket coupled to the mounting rail and configured to be adjustably positioned along a first axis of the mounting rail, and a second mounting bracket directly coupled to the first mounting bracket. The second mounting bracket is configured to support a fan motor mounted thereto, the second mounting bracket is configured to be adjustably positioned along a second axis of the first mounting bracket, and the second axis of the first mounting bracket is transverse to the first axis of the mounting rail.

A driving system for driving at least one auger of a snow removing device comprising at least one at least one self-adjusting chain tensioner. A first portion of the driving system is positioned within an auger housing and a second portion of the driving system is positioned outside the auger housing. The roller chain is adapted to move across a third opening provided in the auger housing. The first portion is covered by a front guard to prevent snow or debris contained in the auger housing to contact said first portion. The front guard is provided with an opening adapted to surround a portion of a shaft element of the auger with a play between periphery of the opening and the periphery of a corresponding portion the shaft element. The play is either small enough to prevent water and or debris to enter the first casing, or filled with a filling element and/or covered with a sealing element secured to the front guard or the corresponding portion of the shaft element of the at least one auger, to have the play small enough to prevent water and/or debris to enter the first casing. The second portion prevent snow or debris present around the snow removing device to contact the said second portion. A snow blower provided with the driving system, a kit comprising parts and/or components of the driving system, a method for assembling the driving system, and a method for manufacturing some components or parts of the driving system.

A belt drive mechanism with gear back-up comprises a driving pulley to which a driving gear is attached, a driven pulley to which a driven gear is attached, a drive belt drivingly connected between the driving and driven pulleys, and a back-up gear disposed between the driving and driven gears. When the drive belt is engaged with the driving and driven pulleys, teeth of the back-up gear are spaced apart from teeth of the driving and driven gears, and at least a portion of the teeth of the back-up gear are interposed between the teeth of the driving and driven gears. Thus, in a normal state, the drive belt is driven by the driving pulley and drives the driven pulley. However, in case of belt failure, the back-up gear is driven by the driven gear attached to the driving pulley and drives the driven gear attached to the driven pulley instead of the drive belt.
