Patent number: 7108623Abstract: A fan idler pulley having a threaded hub for attaching a fan shaft. The pulley also comprises a receiving portion for engaging a bearing. The bearing is further engaged with a cup. The entire assembly is mounted by a pin press fit though the cup into a mounting surface such as an engine block or front cover. The pulley may be engaged to either the inner race or the outer race of the bearing.Type: GrantFiled: July 2, 2002Date of Patent: September 19, 2006Assignee: The Gates CorporationInventors: Marc R. Cadarette, Yahya Hodjat, Michel Ozorak, Hao Tran

Publication number: 20030139217Abstract: The invention comprises a shaft damper having an inertial mass engaged with an elastomeric member within a shaft bore. The elastomeric member is contained in an annular space between a shaft inner surface and an outer surface of the inertial mass. A profile on the outer surface of the inertial mass enhances a mechanical bond with the elastomeric member. The elastomeric member and the inertial mass are disposed in the shaft in order to damp a bending vibration of the shaft.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 23, 2002Publication date: July 24, 2003Inventors: Lin Zhu, Yahya Hodjat, Marc R. Cadarette

Patent number: 6348020Abstract: A hub having a bore, in accordance with the present invention, is spun-roll formed of a portion of an annular sheet metal disc. The hub is formed by radially displacing a portion of the annular sheet disc outward from the bore. The so formed hub that is integral to the annular sheet metal disc forms a web having a thickness equivalent to or not less than a thickness of the annular sheet metal disc before formation of the hub. The web may be used to spun-roll form a rim having a belt receiving portion and as such a one-piece spun roll formed pulley. The web may also be used to interconnect to a rim having a belt receiving portion as a separate piece from the hub and web. During the spinning process, a shaping roller is pressed against a bore of an annular sheet metal disc which is being rotated simultaneously.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2000Date of Patent: February 19, 2002Assignee: The Gates CorporationInventors: Yahya Hodjat, Marc R. Cadarette, John P. Roes

Patent number: 4840607Abstract: A weight reduced pulley for "K" type poly-v belt systems includes a body having an outer cylindrical surface. A plurality of raised ribs extend from said surface and run circumferentially around said surface. A plurality of trough areas are positioned between the ribs. The ribs and troughs corresponding to the location of indented and raised areas, respectively, on a poly-v belt. The ribs have a cross sectional profile extending radially traverse of the axis of rotation of the pulley, each rib being bounded by a pair of planar side walls at relative angles of 40.degree.+0.5.degree.. The side walls terminate in a 140.degree. arc having a radius of 0.5 mm, the outermost point of said arc terminating 0.96 mm inward of the intersection of the upward projections of the planar side walls or apex. The planar side walls extend radially inward at least 3.44 mm from said apex. The trough areas are bounded by the outer cylindrical surface of said pulley, said surface being 3.57 mm from said apex.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 1987Date of Patent: June 20, 1989Assignee: Dyneer CorporationInventors: Gary L. Hitchcock, Henry W. Thomey, Yahya Hodjat, Marc R. Cadarette, Dawson M. Collins
