A new lighting support structure composing of two-way wires and pulley, a pulley-type wireway system, was developed to improve the seismic performance of a ceiling type lighting equipment. This study verifies the seismic performance of the pulley-type wireway system using a numerical approach. A theoretical model fitted to the physical features of the newly-developed system was proposed, and it was utilized to compute a frictional coefficient between the wire and pulley sections under tension forces. The frictional coefficient was implemented to a finite element model representing the pulley-type wireway system. Using the numerical model, the seismic responses of the pulley-type wireway system were compared to those of the existing lighting support structure, a one-way wire system. The addition of the pulley component resulted in the increasement of energy absorption capacity as well as friction effect and showed in significant reduction in maximum displacement and oscillation after the peak responses. Thus, the newly-developed wireway system can minimize earthquake-induced vibration and damage on electric equipment.

This is an experimental study where the coefficient of friction between engine pulley and V-Belt is obtained. The experimental method is applied pulleys made of existing steel and aluminium materials. The relative friction workpiece is a v-belt incorporating rubber with cloth. The friction test uses a pin-on-disk friction modulator and measures the coefficient of friction depending on the number of revolutions in the disc. As a result, in the case of aluminum material, there was a sliding phenomenon because the coefficient of friction was small when accelerating and decelerating. Also, the variation of the friction coefficient was severe when the rotation speed was increased or decreased. Therefore, it is considered that the aluminum pulley is slippery even if it is fit to the structural rigidity. Therefore, in order to secure a stable friction coefficient, the pulley groove surface will be surface-treated, a special alloy is added, or a heat treatment is required.

This paper uses finite element analysis to analyze the equivalent stress and fatigue duration distributed in the timing belt pulley of the rotating part. The pulley structure used for analysis was categorized into one body type and separate axis type and their characteristics were analyzed when materials S45C and SCM440-870C were applied. A static structural analysis and durability analysis show that when external forces are applied to the pulley, the separate axis structure is structurally safer and more favorable in terms of fatigue, compared to the one body. In addition, the separate axis structure using SCM440-870C material was found to have the best safety factor at 10.4 and infinite fatigue life. These findings are expected to be useful when manufacturing timing belt pulleys.

In this study, new CVT system adapted for variable radius pulley is proposed to be available for pulley of CVT. Variable radius pulley consists of two disk and sliding pins joined by these disks. On account of phase difference of two disks, sliding pins move to radial direction and pitch diameter is varied. Therefore, change speed is accomplished by varying pitch diameter of pulley. CVT adapted for variable radius pulley is also performed with dynamometer test and axial distance variation. As a experimental result variable radius pulley can be alternative such as bicycle.

Dry CVT(Continuously variable transmission) consists of a driving pulley and a driven pulley joined by rubber V-belt. Each pulley consists of a fixed flange and a movable flange. The movable flange of the driving pulley has the centrifugal roller and a ramp plate in the flange. The movable flange moves toward a fixed flange under the actuation of a centrifugal roller, as the driving pulley speed increases. The main advantages of the Dry CVT with V-belt, which has been popular in Asia, are a simple mechanism, less maintenance and low cost. The important claim which have an influence on the performance of the Dry CVT is the wear of the centrifugal roller. In this study proposed an improved design of driving pulley reducing the wear of the centrifugal roller in order to provide some design guidelines.

The scooter CVT is consisted of driving pulley, rubber V-belt and driven pulley. A driving pulley of CVT plays a vital role. In this study, contact forces of movable flange, roller and ramp plate are analyzed for wear of roller. As the results, 1) when incline angle of ramp plate become decreased, reaction difference of ramp plate and movable flange become increased, so roller wear can be decreased, 2) when radius of movable flange profile is increased, reaction difference become increased also. Roller wear had been caused serious claim. Based on the analysis, advanced model of driving pulley is presented.

The purpose of this study was to define more precisely the anatomy of the thumb flexor pulley system and to determine the relative contribution of each of the pulleys to the biomechanics of thumb motion at the metacarpophalangeal (MP) and interphalangeal (IP) joints. For this, 22 hands from 11 cadavers were used and randomly assigned to two groups. In the first group, the first annular (A1) pulley was cut first followed by the variable annular (Av) pulley and then the oblique pulley. In the second group, the oblique pulley was cut first followed by the, pulley and then the Av pulley. In 7 of 22 hands, it was a transverse structure parallel to the, pulley with a gap between the A1 and Av pulleys, referred to here as type I. In 9 hands, the A1 and Av pulleys were connected without any gap (type II). In 6 hands, the space between the A1 and Av pulleys were triangular in shape with fibers of the Av pulley converging toward the radial side (type III). In biomechanical study of both first and second experiments, there was no significant difference in MCP joint flexion between the all intact, A1 section, A1/Av section, A2 intact (A1/Av/oblique section), and no pulley configuration (p>.05). In occurring displacements less than 10 mm, there was no significant difference in IP joint flexion (p>.05). However, there was a significant decrease in IP joint flexion occurred in both 15 mm and 20 mm excursion (p<.05), when the oblique pulley was resected additionally after cutting the A1 and Av pulleys in first experiment, and when the A1 pulley was resected additionally after cutting the oblique pulley. According to the results, the injury of only the oblique pulley does not decrease thumb motion significantly. The oblique pulley injury with both the A1 and Av pulleys laceration decreased thumb motion significantly. The additional laceration of the A2 pulley does not decrease thumb motion.
