Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A pulley assembly for an automobile accessory drive system includes a shaft engaging hub, a nut threaded onto the shaft engaging hub, an annular bushing, and one or more brake shoes positioned around the outside of the annular bushing all housed with a pulley member. The nut is capable of axial translation relative to the annular bushing and the annular bushing is capable of expanding radially outward in response to the axial translation of the nut in a first direction to provide frictional engagement between the inner coupling surface of the pulley member and the outer coupling surface of the brake shoes, which transfers torque from the pulley member to the input shaft. The nut includes a generally frustoconical outer surface, opposite its inner threaded surface, for seating the nut in the annular bushing.
