Abstract
A loading mechanism which may be moved relative to a free belt strand is provided with a measuring roller which is driven by the belt upon contact and furnished with pulse markers, and which, together with a pulse transducer sets to zero a device measuring the distance travelled by the loading mechanism, as soon as the measuring roller begins to rotate. The distance measured after a given period of contact of the loading mechanism acting with a known force is used as a measure for the belt tension.
