Independently steerable pulley
Belt Technologies Europe
For ease of tracking Belt Technologies has developed a pulley that independently steers flat belts (Patent Numbers 5,427,581 and 5,676,613). Belts are steered by the changing tension relationships across the width of the belt by adjusting the angle of the pulley relative to the belt. Rather than moving the pulley shaft left/right of up/down by pillow block adjustments, the ISP designs fit a variable steering collar and sealed bearing assembly to
the body of the pulley. The steering collar is designed with either a skewed or an offset bore. When rotated, the collar changes the angle of the pulley body, resulting in the controlled bi-directional movement of the belt across the pulley face.
