Stand for carrying out longevity tests drive belts of gas distribution mechanism

The stand allows carrying out accelerated life tests of gas distribution mechanism (GDM) with multiple overload according to the accepted method.

The stand provides for the mutual arrangement of the GDM drive gears and the tension roller similar to those on eight and sixteen valve engines of the line VAZ 2108 - 2170. The crankshaft gear is driven by an electric motor AIR - 100, and the burden on the camshaft gear is made using the PT6M1 electric powder brake with its own autonomous cooling system. The stand also allows testing the GDM in real temperature conditions of the engine underbonnet space using an automatic heating system.
