    Application of Chain Drive and It's Selection Method

    Uploaded by

    Yogesh B
    This document discusses the selection of chain drives for automobile applications. It first introduces chain drives, their parts, advantages and disadvantages. It then discusses their common applications and general design recommendations. The main topic is the selection method for automobile applications, which is typically done using manufacturer catalogs. The catalogs standardize chain drives based on power rating and other factors. An example selection problem is worked through to demonstrate how the catalog is used to select the appropriate chain drive based on the power to be transmitted, speed ratio, load conditions, and other application specifics.

    Application of chain drive and it’s selection

    method for automobile application. (by


    using manufacturer catalogue)

     Presented by:-
     08 Yogesh bagale
     06 lokesh attarde
     07 shubham badhan
     09 vinay bagul
    Topics to be explained in following presentation.

     Introduction
     Partsof chain drive.
     Advantages and Disadvantages.
     Application of chain drive
     General recommendations.
     Selection method for automobile application.
    Introduction.
    A chain drive can be defined as a series of links
    connected by pin joints.
    They are used for transmitting mechanical
    power from one shaft to the other.
    It consist of an endless chain wrapped around
    two sprockets.
    The chain drive is tightened or loosened by
    adjusting it’s central distance between the two
    sprockets or by using an intermediate sprocket.
    It is also called as flexible gear drive.
    Introduction
    Parts of chain drive.

    1) Pin
    2) Bushing
    3) Roller
    4) Inner link plate
    5) Outer link plate.
    Stresses induced in chain drive
    Advantages and Disadvantages.
     Advantages:-
    1. Chain drive can be used over wide range of
    distances.
    2. Chain drive does not slip, hence it gives
    positive drive.
    3. Efficiency of chain drives is high from 96% to
    98%
    4. Chain drives are easy to replace.
    Advantages and Disadvantages.

     Disadvantages:-
    1. Chain drive are not suitable for non parallel
    shaft.
    2. Chain drive operates without full lubricant
    film between joints unlike gear therefore it
    results in more wear at joints.
    3. Chain drive requires housing
    4. Chain drive requires precise alignment of
    shaft.
    Application’s of chain drive.

    1. Bicycle
    2. Automobiles
    3. Suspending, raising, lowering loads in material
    handling equipment's. (Load lifting chain)
    4. Carrying material by sliding, pulling or
    carrying in conveyors (Hauling chain)
    5. Building construction
    6. Agriculture machinery
    General recommendations for the design of
    chain drive.
    1. For lowering the noise minimum no. of teeth
    on sprocket should be 21.
    2. Centre distance between the axes of driving
    and driven shafts should be 30 to 50 times of
    pitch of the chain.
    3. Idler sprocket should be used to reduce the
    slack in chain.
    4. Multi-strand chains are recommended when
    high power is to be transmitted.
    5. The chain should be properly lubricated.
    Selection of chain drive for automobile

    Selection of chain drive is mostly done from the


    manufacturer catalogue.
    It is done by knowing any of the following
    points:-
    1. Horsepower to be transmitted
    2. RPM of the driving and driven sprocket (speed
    ratio)
    3. Load classification
    4. Space limitations if any.
    Selection of chain drive for automobile
    There are many manufacturer catalogue varying from
    company to company.
    The standards used for chain drive are:-

    1. American series (ANSI standard)


    2. British standards
    They are designated by letters “A” or “B” as suffix for
    respective standards.
    E.G. Let us consider the designation ‘08B’.
     The pitch of this chain is (08/16) inch or (08/16) Y
    (25.4) mm, i.e., 12.7 mm.
    The letter B indicates British standard series.

     Power Rating Catalogue.
    Selection of chain drive for automobile.
     Service factor (Ks) Multiple strand factor (K1)
    Selection of chain drives for automobile.
    Tooth correction factor (K2)
    Selection of chain drive for automobile.
    For e.g. :-
    A chain drive is used in a special purpose
    vehicle. The vehicle is run by a 30 kw rotary
    engine. The efficiency of drive should be 90%.
    The driving sprocket rotates at 300 rpm. The
    driven sprocket rotates at 100 rpm. And a very
    high torque is to be transmitted.
     Now,
     first find power to be transmitted from chain.
    Selection of chain drive for automobile
     Now,
     first find power to be transmitted of chain.
     Power transmitted = power * efficiency
    = 30(0.9)
    = 27 Kw
     Now,
     For moderate shock condition the service factor
    is given from table of service factor (Ks)
     Therefore, Ks = 1.4
    Selection of chain drive for automobile.
     Now,
     Selection of no. of strands .
     As no. of strands depends upon torque to be
    transmitted.
     In our case as high torque is to be transmitted
    therefore no. of strands (K1) is selected as 3 from
    table.
     Now,
     Tooth correction factor (K2) is selected from the
    table depending on the basis of no. of teeth on
    sprockets.
    Selection of chain drive for automobile.
      As, the no. of teeth are 17. Therefore, (K2) is

    selected as 1.00
     Now,
     Power rating of chain =
     =
     = 12.6 Kw
     Therefore, from power rating table for 12.6 Kw
    “16B” type roller chain drive is selected.
