Abstract
This paper presents a method for analyzing the dynamic characteristics of driving systems consisting of multiple belts and pulleys. First, the algorithm which derives the linear equations of motion of arbitrary multi-coupled belt systems is shown. Secondly, by using the algorithm, the computer program which formulates the equations of motion and calculates the transient responses of the belt system is presented. The fundamental idea of the algorithm is as follows: Complicated belt systems consisting of multiple belts and pulleys are regarded as combinations of simple belt systems consisting of a single belt and some pulleys. Therefore, the equations of motion of the belt systems can be derived by the superposition of the equations of motion of the simple belt systems. By means of this method, the responses of arbitrary multi-coupled belt systems can be calculated. Finally, to verify the usefulness of this method, the simulation results are compared with the experimental results.
