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.
