Automobile belt is a kind of rubber product. With the increase of their working time, automotive belts and related accessories will wear and aging. Therefore, it is very important to correctly and timely understand the use status of automobile belts. Next, let's talk about how to identify the damage of the belt from the sound and appearance.

1.Listen to the sound to see if it's good or bad

When the belt squeaks, it generally means that the friction coefficient of the belt surface is greatly reduced, and the belt has been excessively worn. If there is a noise when the vehicle is under load, you may wish to observe one of the transmission belts, and you will find that the resistance or elasticity of the automatic belt tensioner or the belt elastic wheel will increase abnormally. When you hear the belt rumbling, it means the belt is shaking. This situation occurs generally because the drive belt is too loose and stretched too long, or the belt tensioner and elastic wheel are damaged.

2. Watch the belt change

The belt becomes longer: The first step to check whether the belt is normal is to check the belt tension. Use your fingers to strongly press the middle of the belt pulley. If the pressure is about 10kg and the belt reduction is about 10mm, the belt tension is just right. If the amount is too large, it means that the belt tension is insufficient. The cause of the insufficient tension may be that the fastening wheel is loose, or the belt has become longer. If the belt becomes longer, it means that the belt has been deformed and needs to be replaced in time.

Loose belt cracking: If the belt is found to have reduced hardness, abrasion, fiber breakage, cracks, burrs, etc., it indicates that the belt has been damaged and cannot be used.

Summary: Counterfeit and inferior belts will not only affect the normal operation of the engine and accelerate the damage of the vehicle, but may also affect the driving safety of the driver. Therefore, for our own safety, we must carefully discern when purchasing belts, compare them carefully, and must purchase them from regular automotive belt manufacturers. At the same time, in the daily use process, it should be timely maintained and discovered in time.

As an important part of the operation of the car, the belt is connected to various parts. Once it breaks or slips, the related air-conditioning compressor, power steering oil pump, alternator, etc. will be adversely affected. Therefore, it is very important to master the identification method of the automobile belt, and it is also important to know the replacement cycle of the belt. The following are some methods for identifying the quality of automobile belts and determining whether the belt is damaged.

How to identify the advantages and disadvantages of automobile belts?

1. Smell

True: No odor

False: There is a pungent smell of smelly gum.

Smelling is the first step in the identification of the advantages and disadvantages of automotive belts, and it is also a relatively effective trick. Often inferior rubber products will have a pungent smell of gum. The car owner can distinguish it with just a little attention.

2. Take a look

For the same reasons as above, counterfeit products usually make a fuss about materials and processes in order to save costs. The products produced are generally rough, and the printed fonts are relatively vague.

3. More comparison

A repair shop or store that sells counterfeit and inferior belt products will usually have the same specifications but several prices. It is recommended to make a careful comparison of these products with different prices before choosing.

Suggestion: The best way to deal with counterfeit and shoddy products is to choose regular purchase channels. The genuine parts of most automotive belt manufacturers are only sold through regular companies to distinguish counterfeit and shoddy goods from the gray market. Genuine products are not sold through unauthorized distribution channels. Therefore, it is best to choose the corresponding regular store when replacing the car belt.

There are three types of belts commonly found in automobiles: car fan belts, ribbed belts, and timing belts.

Automobile belt installation location: In automotive applications, it is mainly installed on the crankshaft of automobile engines to cams, water pumps, generators, air-conditioning compressors, power steering pumps and other positions.

1. The fan belt is a belt driven by a crankshaft. Its main purpose is to drive the engine fan and water pump.

2. The V-ribbed belt, also called air-conditioning belt, is used to drive the generator, air-conditioning compressor, and steering booster pump, and is hung on the crankshaft belt pulley, which is tightened by the air-conditioning belt tensioner. When this belt is damaged, the source will feel the power is heavy and there is no steering power. If the air conditioner is turned on, the air conditioner compressor will not start, so it cannot be cooled.

3. The timing belt is an important part of the engine's gas distribution system. It is connected to the crankshaft and matched with a certain transmission ratio to ensure the accuracy of the intake and exhaust time. The function of the timing belt is to open and close (time) the ignition sequence (time) of the piston stroke (up and down movement) of the valve when the engine is running. Under the action of "timing", it is necessary to maintain "synchronous" operation at all times.

The engine drives various auxiliary mechanisms through the belt drive, such as the compressor of the air conditioner, the power steering oil pump, and the alternator. If the belt slips or breaks, the related auxiliary mechanisms will not work properly, which will affect the normal use of the car lane. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check the transmission belt.

There are many types of car engine belts. The type and length of the belt will be very different depending on the model and the location of use. It is best to provide the accurate model and engine model when buying. It is best to have the old belt removed for reference. Be sure to choose a car belt suitable for your vehicle.

Industrial synchronous belts drives consists of an endless belt whose inner surface has equally spaced teeth and of belt wheels which have the corresponding teeth and is a kind of new type belt drive which has synthesized all the good points of belt drive ,chain drive and gear drive, which working the teeth of the belt and the gullets of the gear joggle each other to transmit the motion and the dynamic force.  

Industrial timing belts has such features as exact transmission ratio, on-sliding, constant velocity ratio which can be gained ,even motion, adsorption of vibration, little noises, the big range of transmission ratio which can normally reach 1:10, that the allowed linear velocity can reach 40m/s, that the transmission power can be from after W to hundreds of KW, nigh transmission efficiency which normally reach 0.98, compacting structure , the suitability to multiaxle transmission, no need of lubrication. no pollution and so on. there fore the product can normally work well in the places where no pollution is allowed and where the working condition is worse and textile.  chemical engineering, light industry, mining , instruments, oil industry and so all kinds of other machinery drive.
