Abstract

The invention relates to a tensioning device comprising a back plate, on which is installed a tensioning roller provided with at least one bearing. The tensioning roller is installed on the back plate with the possibility of rotation about an eccentric axis (X6) in relation to the axis (X4) of the tensioning roller. The tensioning roller is provided with a protuberance engaged in a peripheral recess of the back plate, this peripheral recess limiting the movement of the protuberance between two abutments.
