During the operation of the timing winding transmission T, when a tensile force is applied to the loose side 51 of the transmission belt 5 due to torque fluctuations acting on the crankshaft 1, valve drive camshaft 2, etc., this tensile force pushes back the tension pulley 8. It also works to push down the plunger 23 via the swing lever 9. As a result, the oil pressure in the high-pressure oil chamber 31 increases and the spherical valve body 35 of the check valve ■ closes the valve port 33, which prevents oil from flowing back into the replenishment oil chamber 32, and eventually inside the high-pressure oil chamber 31. The hydraulic pressure of 5. on the loose side of the transmission belt 5. By resisting the tensile force of the tension boob 98, the tension boob 98 is prevented from retreating.

C3 Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, according to the present invention, an endless transmission band is suspended between the driving wheel and the driven wheel supported by the engine body, and a tension boot is provided on the loose side of the transmission band. In a tensioner device for a wrap transmission in an internal combustion engine, the tensioner device is configured to apply a predetermined tension to the transmission band by press-contacting the transmission band. A fixed part including the engine main body and the guide shaft, a movable part including the tension pulley and the swing lever, and a guide shaft for guiding the swing of the swing lever are fixedly supported. A spacer is interposed between the contact parts to avoid direct contact between them, so the movable parts including the tension pulley and the swing lever can swing against the fixed parts including the engine body and the guide shaft via the spacer. This reduces the swinging resistance of the swinging lever by avoiding direct contact with the engine body, and also prevents the tension pulley and swinging lever from axially shifting even if they receive vibrations from the transmission band. As a result, the swinging lever supporting the tension pulley can always swing easily and smoothly, and the transmission efficiency of the wrap-around transmission can be improved.
