<p>A tensioner with a piston is slidably received with a bore (216) of the housing and has a plurality of grooves (204b) formed on its outer circumference. A piston spring (226) biases the piston (204) in an outward direction from the bore. A pawl (206) is received by a cutout in the housing and is pivotally and slidably attached to the housing by a pin (208). The pawl has a first protruding shoulder (206a), a second shoulder (206b), a teeth portion (206c), and a hole (211) defined between the first protruding shoulder and the second shoulder. The pawl is biased toward the grooves formed on the outer circumference of the piston by a spring.</p> |
