Product Description

Introduction to Sprockets and Chains
 
Sprockets and chains are commonly used components in mechanical transmission systems, transferring power through meshing with the advantages of reliable structure and high transmission efficiency.
 
Core Composition and Functions
 
- Sprockets: Toothed wheel-shaped parts, typically made of metal (such as steel or cast iron). The tooth profile is designed to match the chain, ensuring smooth meshing.
- Chains: Annular parts composed of multiple hinged links. Common types include roller chains (for power transmission), silent chains, etc., mostly made of steel to withstand tension and torque.
 
Working Principle
 
Sprockets transfer power from the driving wheel to the driven wheel through the meshing of teeth and chains during rotation, achieving the linkage of mechanical components. For example, in a bicycle, pedaling drives the active sprocket, which transmits power through the chain to the driven sprocket of the rear wheel, propelling the vehicle forward.
 
Application Scenarios
 
- Industrial Field: Power transmission in machine tools, conveyor lines, cranes, and other equipment.
- Transportation: Transmission systems of motorcycles, automobile engines, and agricultural machinery (e.g., harvesters) for power distribution.
- Daily Tools: Power transmission in bicycles, power tools (such as chain saws), etc.
 
Advantages and Maintenance
 
- Advantages: Accurate transmission ratio, strong overload resistance, and suitability for harsh environments (e.g., dusty or humid conditions).
- Maintenance Tips: Regularly lubricate the chain to reduce wear, inspect the tooth surface of sprockets for wear, and prevent transmission failure caused by loose or over-tight chains.
