Belt drive, in machinery, a pair of pulleys attached to usually parallel shafts and connected by an encircling flexible belt (band) that can serve to transmit and modify rotary motion from one shaft to the other. Most belt drives consist of flat leather, rubber, or fabric belts running on cylindrical pulleys or of belts with a V-shaped cross section running on grooved pulleys. To create an effective frictional grip on the pulleys, belts must be installed with a substantial tension.
Belt and chain drives can be used for transmission of mechanical power between two rotating shafts. Belt drives are often cheaper than the equivalent gears and useful for transmitting power between shafts that are widely separated or nonparallel drives.
