V-Belts and Flats Belts
A belt drive is a mechanical system that uses belts and pulleys to transmit power from one device to another. It is a simple and efficient way to transfer rotational power between two shafts that are not collinear (not in a straight line). Belt drives are commonly used in a wide variety of applications, such as in automobiles, conveyor systems, and power transmission systems. There are two main types of belts used in belt drives: flat belts and v-belts.
