Pulley questions
Hello all,
I need Help with selecting a correct size pulley and bet for a model engine I'm building. The engine is a 4 cycle 2 cylinder In line. I'm panning to select a correct Pulleys and belt between the camshaft and the crankshaft with a ratio of 2:1 The larger pulley goes on the camshaft and smaller on the crankshaft. The center distance between camshaft and crankshaft is 1.29" To calculate the belt length I used this formula L = 2C + 1.57(D+d) + (D-d)^2 / 4C L = Pitch length of belt D = Pitch Diameter of Larger pulley d = Pitch Diameter of smaller pulley For the smaller pulley I'm planning to use a one with d=.520 https://sdp-si.com/eStore/PartDetail...&GroupID=2 17 For the larger pulley I'm planning to use one a with D=1.040 https://sdp-si.com/eStore/PartDetail...&GroupID=2 17 based on the calculation above the length of the belt came out to around 5.034" long the closest to that size that I could find is 5.71" https://sdp-si.com/eStore/PartDetail...&GroupID=2 13 The question is what size idler pulley I need to use so that 5.71" could fit and what is the formula to find the location that I need to install the idler pully? By the way prior to using a pulleys and belt, I was planning to use a 2:1 ratio gears with an idle in between as seen in the picture. Thanks Borna |
