A tensioner is disclosed that achieves asymmetric damping in part by using a ramp-ramp assembly. The tensioner (10, 100) comprises a tensioner axis (12, 108) defining a pivot axis (11, 11), an arm (1, 102) mounted on the tensioner axle (12, 108) so as to permit the arm (1, 102) to pivot about the pivot axis (11, 111), a first tensioner component (5, 112) having first ramp features (9, 113), a second tensioner component (4, 118) having second ramp features (6, 119), and a ramp bushing (3, 116) having an upper ramp surface (7, 132) and a lower ramp surface (8, 134). The first tensioner component (5, 112) is engaged to the arm (1, 102) for rotation therewith and the second tensioner component (4, 118) is coupled to the tensioner axle (12, 108). The ramp bushing (3, 116) is disposed between the first tensioner component (5, 112) and the second tensioner component (4, 118) such that the upper ramp surface (7, 132) seats within the first ramp features (9, 113) and the lower ramp surface (8, 134) seats within the second ramp features (6, 119).

La présente invention concerne un tendeur qui obtient un amortissement asymétrique en partie par lutilisation dun ensemble rampe-rampe. Le tendeur (10, 100) comprend un axe de tendeur (12, 108) définissant un axe de pivot (11, 111), un bras (1, 102) monté sur lessieu de tendeur (12, 108) de façon à permettre que le bras (1, 102) pivote autour de laxe de pivot (11, 111), un premier composant de tendeur (5, 112) comportant des premières caractéristiques de rampe (9, 113), un second composant de tendeur (4, 118) comportant des secondes caractéristiques de rampe (6, 119) et une garniture de rampe (3, 116) comportant une surface de rampe supérieure (7, 132) et une surface de rampe inférieure (8, 134). Le premier composant de tendeur (5, 112) est en prise avec le bras (1, 102) pour tourner avec celui-ci et le second composant de tendeur (4, 118) est accouplé à lessieu du tendeur (12, 108). La garniture de rampe (3, 116) est disposée entre le premier composant de tendeur (5, 112) et le second composant de tendeur (4, 118) de façon que la surface de rampe supérieure (7, 132) ait son assise dans les premières caractéristiques de rampe (9, 113) et que la surface de rampe inférieure (8, 134) ait son assise dans les secondes caractéristiques de rampe (6, 119).
