Drives:  Drives are devices used to transmit rotary motion from one shaft to another.

The drive mechanism is used in transmitting power from one location to another

There are three types of drives:

  1. Belt and pulley drive
  2. Chain drives
  3. Gear drives

Belt drive

This is a device used to transfer power/motion from one shaft to another shaft parallel to it and at some distance away. Belt drives are often used in place of chain drive when slip is not so important to be taken into consideration. Hence, belt cannot provide positive drive because slip occurs from time to time.

Types of belt drive

There are two types of belt drive based on the shape of the belt:

  1. Straight (flat) belt
  2. V- shaped belt

Belt can be lapped over the groove pulley in two styles. This includes:

  1. Straight belt lap: Here the two pulleys join by the belt rotate in the same direction.
  2. Cross belt lap: Here the two pulleys join by the belt rotate in opposite
