See full text

In an aspect, a system is provided for controlling tension in an endless drive member, and including an isolation device and a tensioning system. The isolation device is positioned on an accessory drive shaft and has a pulley and a biasing member to transfer force from the pulley to the accessory drive shaft. The isolation device pulley is engaged with the endless drive member, such that a first span of the endless drive member is on a first side of the isolation device pulley and a second span of the endless drive member is on a second side of the isolation device pulley. The tensioning system has a first tensioner pulley engaged with the first span and a second tensioner pulley engaged with the second span. The first and second tensioner pulleys are urged by first and second tensioner pulley biasing forces towards the first and second spans respectively.
