Abstract

A chain drive is a common type of flexible drives. It is used for power transmission between shafts that are relatively far from each other. A chain drive includes a driving sprocket, a driven sprocket and a chain loop. Chain drives are typically employed for low to moderate speeds, high torque transmission, and applications in which precise speed ratios must be maintained. The design of chain drives usually includes determining size of chain (pitch), the chain type, number of strands, and the teeth number of sprockets. In this chapter, we propose a graphical method for designing chain drives.
