The Characteristics of Transmission of the Roller Chain Driving System

Abstract

The speed fluctuations of the driver shaft have been tested in the roller chain driving system when the follower shaft has been loaded periodically.
The characteristics of transmission of this system are as follows;
In the light load, the speed fluctuations are maximum at the frequencies of load fluctuation 0.6-6.8cps in the low revolutions of sprocket, but they become larger at the frequencies 1.5-1.8cps as the revolutions of sprocket increase.
In the heavy load, the speed fluctuations are very large at the low frequencies of load fluctuation in all revolutions of sprocket, but they become smaller as the frequencies increase.
