Chain or belt tensioner

摘要

The invention relates to a chain or belt tensioner which interacts with a damping device and is reliable in operation, the said tensioner being characterised in that the force exerted by the tensioning element is transmitted to the tensile transmission element by the damping piston. The arrangement of a damper and a spring in series gives a compact component in which the tightening part can be spatially separated from the location where the force is introduced. <IMAGE>
