An idler-wheel is wheel which serves only to transmit rotation from one shaft to some other, in applications where it is undesirable for connecting them directly. For example, connecting a electric motor to the platter of a phonograph , or the crankshaft-to-camshaft gear train of an automobile.
Since it does no function itself, it really is called an “idler”.
In a belt drive system, idlers are often used to alter the road of the belt, where a direct path will be impractical.
Idler pulleys are also often used to press against the back of a pulley in order to increase the wrap angle (and thus contact region) of a belt against the working pulleys, increasing the force-transfer capacity.
Belt drive systems commonly incorporate one movable pulley which is spring- or gravity-loaded to act as a belt tensioner to accommodate stretching of the belt because of temperature or wear. An idler wheel is normally used for this purpose, on order to avoid needing to move the power-transfer shafts.
