Study on Simulation of the Chain Transmission Mechanism

Abstract

The chain transmission’s feature, the main failure form of roller chain and the research for the simulation of the chain transmission mechanism are introduced. Taking the simulation of the chain transmission mechanism in feeding system of a mechanical equipment as the research object, the kinematical properties and the affecting factors are analysed in this paper. It adopts the advanced connection pair to establish relationship between the sprocket-wheel and rollers, and realistically simulates the kinematical characteristics of the chain transmission mechanism. It provides a reference for the optimization design of the structure of the chain and sprocket wheel, through the analysis on the moving velocity and acceleration curve of the chain. It also provides a basis for verifying whether the chain and sprocket-wheel meet the design requirements or not.

Experimental Evaluation of the Tractive Effort of the Chain Conveyor During Book Block Spine Processing by Cylindrical Milling Cutter at Perfect Binding

“…1). The machine has consecutive assembled units: (1) feeder and jogging stations, (2) cut-off of the folded sheets station, (3) spine processing station, (4) spine processing station by cylindrical milling cutter, (5) main gluing station, (6) infrared drying station (if polyvinyl acetate dispersions are used), (7) side gluing station, (8) back-stripping unit (lining station), (9) cover bonding station, (10) drying unit for PVAD by high-tension current, (11,12) pressing stations and (13) delivery of bound book block out of machine. The power of the conveyor drive is 5.5 kW.…”

Synthesis of a ten-link tooth-lever differential roller transmission mechanism

“…Despite the widespread use of roller machines and the numerous studies of these machines conducted in recent years [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9], roller transmission mechanisms of roller machines with variable center-to-center distances of the working shafts are studied insufficiently [10]. A roller transmission mechanism of roller machines with a variable center distance of the working shafts, transmitting torque from one working shaft to another, must provide, among other conditions, one basic condition -to ensure the rotation of the working shafts identical in value and in direction of the linear velocities of the contact point of these shafts with the processed material, both with a constant and changing center distance of the working shafts.…”
