Study Notes

Scope and Application

Establishes specifications and provides technical information for the proper application of roller chains and sprockets for drives in agricultural machinery.
Roller chains are used to transmit power at high torque and low speed without slippage.

Definitions

Chain pitch: distance between adjacent joint members.
Pitch diameter: diameter of the pitch circle that passes through the centers of the link pins as the chain is wrapped on the sprocket.
Bottom diameter: diameter of a circle tangent to the curve (called the seating curve) at the bottom of the tooth gap.
Caliper diameter: for a sprocket with an odd number of teeth, it is the distance from the bottom of the tooth gap to that of the nearest opposite tooth gap.
Outside diameter: diameter over the tips of the teeth.

Chains

Classified into single-strand and multiple-strand chains.
Dimensions of chains are given in Table 1.
Different types of links are shown in Figure 3.
