1. The composition of the roller chain
The roller chain is connected by chain plates processed by splitting two adjacent connecting rods. These chain plates surround the sprockets, which together form the roller chain in the mechanical transmission. The rollers in roller chains are an important part of the chain.
Second, the role of the roller
The rollers in a roller chain perform two important functions:
1. Reduce chain friction
The rollers can roll and slide over the sprocket, which reduces the friction of the chain during transmission. If there are no rollers, the friction between the chain and the sprocket will cause the loss of the system and reduce the transmission efficiency.
2. Spread the load
As one of the parts connecting the chain plate, the roller can disperse the load on the chain during the transmission process, thereby reducing the load on the chain and prolonging the service life of the chain.
Summarize:
The roller is an important part of the roller chain, which plays the role of reducing the chain friction and dispersing the load, ensuring the transmission efficiency and service life of the roller chain.
