Product Description
A conveyor will always consist of at least 2 pulleys, head pulley and tail pulley, with additional pulleys used depending on the configuration. Standard-duty pulleys are usually adequate for simple applications, but mine-duty and engineered pulleys are also available where heavy-duty pulleys are required.
Different kinds of conveyor pulleys
KONWEYOUR sells conveyor pulleys in all the following sub-categories:
Head pulleys
The head pulley is located at the discharge point of the conveyor. It usually drives the conveyor and often has a larger diameter than other pulleys. For better traction, the head pulley is usually lagged (with either rubber or ceramic lagging material).
Tail and CHINAMFG pulleys
The tail pulley is located at the loading end of the belt. It comes with either a flat face or a slatted profile (wing pulley), which cleans the belt by allowing material to fall between the support members.
Snub pulleys
A snub pulley improves the traction of the drive pulley, by increasing its belt wrap angle.
Drive pulleys
Drive pulleys, which can also be the head pulley, are driven by a motor and power transmission unit to propel the belt and material to the discharge.
Bend pulleys
A bend pulley is used for changing the direction of the belt.
Take-up pulley
A take-up pulley is used to provide the belt with the proper amount of tension. Its position is adjustable.

How do V pulleys handle different belt types and sizes?
V pulleys are designed to accommodate different belt types and sizes to ensure efficient power transmission. Here’s an explanation of how V pulleys handle variations in belt types and sizes:
1. Groove Profile:
The groove profile of a V pulley is specifically designed to match the shape of the V-belt used in the power transmission system. The angle, depth, and width of the groove are tailored to the corresponding V-belt dimensions. This ensures that the belt fits securely and engages properly with the pulley, creating the necessary friction for effective power transmission.
2. Belt Width:
V pulleys are available in different widths to accommodate belts of varying widths. The pulley width corresponds to the nominal width of the belt it is designed to work with. It is important to select a pulley with the appropriate width to ensure proper alignment and engagement of the belt.
3. Belt Type:
V pulleys can handle different types of V-belts, such as:
- Classical V-Belts: These are standard V-belts with a trapezoidal cross-section and are commonly used in various industrial applications.
- Narrow V-Belts: These belts have a narrower width and are used in applications where space is limited or higher speeds are required.
- Double V-Belts: Also known as hexagonal V-belts, these belts have a double-sided V-shaped cross-section and are designed to transmit power on both sides of the belt.
- Cogged V-Belts: These belts have notches or cogs on the inner surface, which allow for higher power transmission capacity and improved flexibility.
- Variable Speed V-Belts: These belts are designed to operate efficiently at varying speeds and provide a wide range of speed ratios.
- Synchronous Belts: These belts have teeth that mesh with corresponding grooves in the pulley, providing precise power transmission and eliminating slippage.
Each belt type has specific design characteristics, and V pulleys are manufactured to match the corresponding belt type for optimal performance.
4. Tensioning:
V pulleys are designed to work in conjunction with belt tensioning mechanisms to maintain the required tension in the belt. Tensioning devices such as idler pulleys or tensioners are used to adjust the tension and ensure proper belt engagement with the pulley.
5. Speed Ratio:
The pulley diameter ratio determines the speed ratio between the driving and driven pulleys in a belt drive system. By selecting pulleys of different diameters, different speed ratios can be achieved to suit the specific application requirements.
6. Compatibility:
It is essential to ensure compatibility between the V pulleys and the belts used in the system. This includes considering factors such as the pulley groove profile, belt width, belt type, and speed requirements. Manufacturers provide specifications and guidelines to help users select the appropriate pulleys for their specific belt types and sizes.
By considering these factors, V pulleys can effectively handle different belt types and sizes, providing reliable power transmission in various applications.
Can V pulleys be part of fitness equipment like treadmills and stationary bikes?
Yes, V pulleys can be part of fitness equipment like treadmills and stationary bikes, playing a crucial role in their operation. Here’s a detailed explanation:
1. Belt Driven Systems:
Treadmills and stationary bikes often use belt-driven systems to transfer power from the motor or user’s pedaling motion to the moving components of the equipment. V pulleys are an integral part of these systems as they provide the necessary power transmission and control.
2. Motor Drive:
In motorized treadmills and stationary bikes, the V pulley is connected to the motor shaft, which drives the belt. The motor provides the rotational power needed to move the belt, allowing the user to walk, jog, or run on the treadmill or pedal the stationary bike. The size and design of the V pulley influence the speed and torque delivered to the belt and, consequently, the user’s movement.
3. Tension and Belt Alignment:
Proper tensioning and alignment of the belt are crucial for smooth and efficient power transfer in fitness equipment. V pulleys are often accompanied by tensioners and idler pulleys that help maintain the correct tension in the belt and ensure proper belt alignment. This ensures optimal performance and prevents belt slippage or premature wear.

Their design features, combined with properly tensioned belts, contribute to the overall performance, durability, and quiet operation of fitness equipment, supporting users in achieving their fitness goals.
How do V pulleys differ from other types of pulleys?
V pulleys, also known as V-belt pulleys or sheaves, have distinct characteristics that set them apart from other types of pulleys. Here’s an explanation of how V pulleys differ from other pulleys:
1. Groove Shape:
The most notable difference between V pulleys and other pulleys is the shape of the groove on their outer circumference. V pulleys have a V-shaped groove, which is specifically designed to accommodate V-belts with a trapezoidal cross-section. This groove shape provides a wedging action that enhances the grip between the pulley and the belt, reducing the likelihood of slippage.
2. Friction-Based Power Transmission:
V pulleys utilize a friction-based power transmission system. The V-belt wraps around the V pulley, creating a frictional contact between the belt and the groove. This friction allows for the transfer of rotational motion and torque between the driving source and the driven component. In contrast, other types of pulleys, such as flat pulleys or timing pulleys, may employ different mechanisms, such as flat belts or toothed belts, for power transmission.
3. V-Belt Compatibility:
V pulleys are specifically designed to work in conjunction with V-belts. V-belts are flexible rubber belts with a trapezoidal cross-section that match the V-shaped groove on the pulley. The shape and dimensions of the V-belt are precisely engineered to provide optimal contact and grip on the V pulley. This compatibility between the V pulley and the V-belt ensures efficient power transmission and reduces the risk of slippage.
4. Torque Transmission:
V pulleys are particularly suitable for high torque transmission. The wedging action created by the V-shaped groove and the corresponding shape of the V-belt allows for efficient power transfer even under heavy loads or during sudden changes in speed or direction. The design of V pulleys enables them to transmit higher levels of torque compared to some other types of pulleys.
5. Speed Variation:
Another distinctive feature of V pulleys is the ability to achieve speed variation in power transmission systems. By changing the diameter of the V pulley, different speed ratios can be achieved between the driving source and the driven component. This flexibility in speed control allows for proper matching of operational requirements and efficient power transmission.
6. Damping Effect:
The flexibility of V-belts and the slight elasticity of the rubber material used in V-belts provide a damping effect in V pulley systems. This helps absorb vibrations and shocks in the mechanical system, contributing to smoother operation, reduced noise, and increased component longevity.
7. Common Applications:
V pulleys are commonly used in various applications, including automotive systems, industrial machinery, HVAC systems, and power transmission systems in appliances. They are especially prevalent in systems where high torque transmission, speed variation, and reliable power transmission are required.
By understanding the distinctive features of V pulleys, engineers and designers can select the appropriate pulley type for specific applications, considering factors such as power requirements, torque transmission, speed control, and belt compatibility.
