| Abstract: | A study was made to determine the load distribution for an elastic roller chain on an elastic sprocket. The equations developed for the distribution include, as a subset, those for a rigid roller chain on a stationary rigid sprocket. The effect of friction and sprocket rotation on load distribution is discussed. Results are presented for a 20-tooth sprocket with a 180° angle of roller chain wrap, for various tight-to-slack side tension ratios of both driver and driven sprockets, with various spring constant ratios. |
