Abstract: A belt clamp comprising a first body (10) having an arcuate surface (12), a second body (20) having an arcuate surface (22), a clevis (30) engageable between the first body arcuate surface (12) and the second body arcuate surface (22), the clevis having a form compatible with the first body arcuate surface and the second body arcuate surface, the clevis further having a substantially teardrop shape, a fastener (F) for securing the first body to the second body whereby a belt is clamped between the first body arcuate surface and the clevis and the second body arcuate surface and the clevis, and a receiver (16) for attaching the belt clamp to a mounting surface.

Abstract: A belt installation tool having a body and an angular member projecting from the body for engaging a pulley belt bearing surface. A surface disposed substantially normal to the angular member comprises a chamfered lip for engaging a pulley web feature. The lip and angular member removeably attach the tool to a pulley by flexure of the angular member.

Abstract: A belt installation tool. The tool comprises a pair of arms connected at a pivot. Each arm has an end for engaging a pulley axle. A handtool is engaged with an arm. By a torque applied with the handtool through a short arcuate motion to the arms, the pulleys are moved apart, thereby tensioning a belt. A locking member or linkage is available to fix the arms in a predetermined position.

Abstract: A belt installation tool having a substantially planar body having a circumferential surface and a roller. The roller radially projects from the body. An axis of rotation of the roller is disposed cooperatively with a belt urging member. The belt urging member projects from an outer flange. The roller urges a belt slightly radially outward from a pulley center. The belt urging member then urges the belt laterally to install the belt in a pulley groove. A second roller projecting radially from the body and having an axis of rotation parallel to the body is used to remove a belt from a pulley.
